It's 2020 in Athens and we're still living the same stories that happened centuries ago. Only that this time, the gods are the rich kids and their power is money: they think it gives them the right to meddle in other people's lives.
This is a collection of short stories that reimagine Greek Myths in the modern world. You'll see Icarus flying too high- on an overdose, and you'll see gangs fighting on their streets, going by the names of Trojans and Greeks. Love and tragedy don't change, but these stories are now played against a modern backdrop of technology and tall skyscrapers.
*inspired by the Modern Myths photosets that were really popular in tumblr back in 2016!

Where the Sun Meets the Sea by King_Zacharyy
In an Alternate Universe where Percy grew up knowing the myths, knowing the gods are real, and one night after his step-father Gabe deals him the worst of the beatings he's given, Percy prays to Apollo, the Protector of Youth, God of Healing, the sun, for help. For relief. And how could Apollo ignore such a prayer from a child? It ends up changing everything ________________ This was an idea sparked in the middle of the night, helped along by some lovely people in the discord server for the series A Family Built on the Weary <3 I might be slow to update, but I'll do my best if this is something y'all like! This fic will deal with some heavy topics such as Child and Spousal abuse, child death (demigods), and others. Take care of yourselves and don't read if this may trigger you.

A Story By Chance
A new adventure awaits to those patient enough. But what about living the book you're reading? What about saving the world? A world? A life? What about learning magic? What about meeting a dragonness and talking mouse? What about dancing in a masquerade held only once every year? What about saving your best friend? And exploring the farthest confines of the Galaxy? What about living on a comet? On the Moon? On a futuristic world? Welcome to this new adventure, where each short story is based on nine random images. They might all seem disconnected at first, but are they really? I guess you'll get to find out along with me...
{1} Princess - P. Jackson 🔱
"Are you stupid, Perseus?" "If I'm stupid then you're crazy, Princess!" Maria Sinclair never expected her life to be easy, not when you're a demigod. But since a certain son of Poseidon arrived at camp, things have been a little too hard. [Percy x Daughter of Aphrodite OC] [Enemies to Lovers] [started 04.02.2024] [ended 06.04.2024]Complete
Remember (A Percy Jackson Fanfic)
After losing the one closest to him, he disappears for quite a long time. Another war is coming. Against an enemy that was never seen before. A war that will decide the fate of the whole world. A war that would make the previous ones look like a birthday party. Who is the enemy? Who is the one that seeks to eradicate Olympus? More importantly, who will stop them? This is not like any of the other Guardian of the Hunt stories. I've tried to include some twists and different things in this to make it unique. This is NOT a Chaos story. This is not a story where Percy is an overpowered being that can squash Zeus in a second. He is just a normal demigod with the blessing of ONE Olympian. I don't own PJO/HoO. Rick Riordan does. I only own the storyline, plot and any original characters.Complete

The Grains of Time (Slipping Through Our Fingers) by P_a_n_i_c

Indigo Eyes
I could give you a sob story about how tough Cressida Lynn's life has been, but you're not here for that. You're not here to hear about how terrible her mother treated her and how she only got her first birthday present at age nine or how no one outside her cabin liked her. No. You're here to hear about how her life changed the summer of her 12th birthday. The summer when Poseidon's son came crashing through the camp borders after he'd killed the Minotaur. You're here to hear about how they found the Lightning Thief. You're here to hear about how they ventured through the Sea of Monsters. You're here to hear about how they withstood the Titan's Curse. You're here to hear about how they fought in the Battle of the Labyrinth. You're here to hear about how they defended the Last Olympian. However, I must warn you that this journey is not for the faint-hearted for each quest is more treacherous than the last. And it is most certainly not for mortals. But, should you find yourself feeling brave, should you be a demigod in a past life, a present life or a future one, then I invite you to join me on this adventure. #1 in hades #1 in greekgodsandgoddesses #1 in lukecastellan #1 in titanwar #1 in dionysus #1 in pjofandom #4 in zeus #4 in seaofmonsters #9 in kronos #10 in labyrinth #12 in percyjacksonandtheolympians #17 in greekmythology #23 in annabethchase #36 in poseidon (Lightning Thief - Last Olympian) (Disclaimer: All rights go to the legendary Rick Riordan, I only own Cressida and any original scenes and dialogue I've written.)

Changing the Future
"Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood..." With one sentence, her life would be changed forever. Andy Collins could never have expected how her love of reading turned into something right out of her favorite series, plunging her into a world where magic, myths, and monsters are real. The catch? Go back into the past and fix mistakes that should have never been made in the first place. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All credit goes to Rick Riordan for his characters and sections of the books I use. I only own this plot and my OC's. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you all for 350,000 views!
