《Hero Of Olympus》I complain to my uncle
Advertisement
The next morning, I woke with freezing cold water being splashed on me.
I opened my eyes, expecting it to be the Stolls, but saw a grinning James instead.
"Leave me alone," I mumbled and hid myself under my pillow. "What time is it?"
"Four AM," James replied.
I groaned even further and tried going back to sleep, but I was soon dragged out of bed and dumped on the floor.
"Quick Perce, I heard someone sneaking out of their cabin and going into the forest. I didn't see anything but I heard the footsteps."
"Alright," I groaned and slipped my shoes on. "Let's go."
James grinned and the two of us slipped out of the cabin and went over towards the forest.
As we crept through the forest, a hand covered my mouth and I was dragged behind a tree.
I looked over and saw the Stolls.
"It was you?" James questioned. "I never thought Hermes kids liked waking up at four in the morning."
Travis shook his head and whispered, "We followed someone here as well. We were-"
"Setting up our next prank when we hear a cabin door close and someone walking off towards the woods," Connor finished.
There was a small beam of light coming from the creek, making us peek around the tree.
All our eyes widened when we saw who it was and what they were doing.
"O Iris, goddess of the rainbow, accept this offering and show me Athena," Annabeth said.
A mildly annoyed Athena appeared in the rainbow.
"What is it that you want at this time Annabeth?" Athena asked, putting down her book. "Can't it wait till morning?"
"No, mom, Percy came back. Our plan didn't work. The only other option we have is to kill him or break him from the inside to the point he kills himself."
I could believe neither my ears, not my eyes.
"You can't kill him Annabeth," Athena said sternly, "despite how much I hate him, he fell into hell for you. You can't just kill him!" Athena said.
"Then what do we do?"
Athena thought for a second and paled. "I'm sorry Annabeth, we shouldn't do this. What if someone finds out?"

"What can they do to us? You have Lord Zeus on your side. What if we break Percy? I can use his brother against him and cheat on him with his brother. Then you can do something."
Athena stayed pale and stared at her daughter, "No Annabeth, what I thought off is too extreme. I cannot do something that bad."
"Tell me," Annabeth begged.
Athena thought for a second and shrugged. "I can persuade Poseidon to disown his son. Then, I can get Ares to kill off his family and ask my father to banish him from Olympus. We'll then need Hecate and Hypnos to help us turn his friends against him."
Annabeth's eyes glinted with malice. "Then let's do this," she said.
Athena nodded slowly and waved her hand through the Iris message, cutting it off.
Annabeth put on her Yankees cap and walked off back to the Athena cabin.
I stared at my friends, who like me, all had their mouths open.
I hear someone curse like a sailor behind me, calling Annabeth some names that would make Arion proud.
I spun around to see a grimy and tired Leo with fire in his eyes.
"Hey, I was working late on a new project," he said gesturing to his phone that was recording.
"I recorded it as well," Connor and Travis said together.
I said down and looked at my feet. I was trying to hold back the tears but they were already spilling out.
"Can I set her on fire?" Leo asked, his form lighting up and flickering with fire.
"Let's go back to the Poseidon cabin and discuss more about this," James said.
I nodded and the five of us snuck back into the Poseidon cabin.
Once we had closed the door and Leo had scanned the cabin with his phone to make sure no one was invisible, we sat down on the bunks.
"After all I've done," I muttered, anger replacing my sadness. "That bitch."
"We should report this to Dad and Chiron," James said.
"Yeah and execute her," Connor said.
"Painfully," Travis added.
"Slowly," Leo added.
We did after all have proof. "When do we inform them?" I asked them.

"Now!" Leo said.
"The sooner, the better," Travis added.
"Let's do this," James said.
I smiled and hugged my friends. "Thanks for being there for me guys."
"That's what friends are for," Leo said, grinning.
"We'll go by Pegasi," I suggested.
"I'll get Festus," Leo said and ran off.
I nodded to my friends and we ran towards the stables.
I had just brought out Blackjack, Guido, Porkpie and Digital out, when the cleaning harpies flew towards us. Digital was one of the newer Pegasi. His coat was grey, with a pixelated patern.
"Crap," I muttered as the harpies neared us.
Connor, Travis, James and I pulled out our swords and prepared to fight, but the harpies flew away when I felt the flapping of wings behind me.
I turned around and found Festus, with new rocket boosters and a digit control panel attached to his back.
We grabbed our Pegasi and flew at supersonic speeds towards Olympus. Leo meanwhile, was whooping at the top of his lungs as Festus zoomed through the new ght sky, looking like a comet.
We arrived on Olympus in only a few minutes.
We dismounted and ran through the streets, while James lagged behind, marveling the beauty of the city.
"Hey why are you going towards Zeus' palace?" James asked, catching up.
"Trust me," I replied.
We reached the front of Zeus' palace and notice that there was someone on the garden on the swing.
We approached them and I noticed it was my uncle and aunt.
They spotted us and raised their eyebrows. "You're lucky I haven't blasted you with my bolt yet Jackson," my uncle said.
"Uh sorry for barging in Lord Zeus, but my friends and I just found something out and we think you should see it."
Leo pulled out his phone and handed it over to Hera. "Hello Tia," he said.
Hera smiled and grabbed the phone and played the video. As they did, their eyes kept widening.
Once the video finished playing, they stared at us in shock. "This is treason!" Hera exclaimed.
"Now we know how you ended up in Alaska and why you called me and disturbed me," Zeus said, stroking his beard.
"Poseidon!" Hera called out.
"Yes sister?" My dad asked. He looked towards us and smiled.
"Watch this," Zeus said and tossed Leo's phone to him.
Leo yelped. "Please take care. I just made it an hour ago. Its demigod signal proof. It also has-"
He was interrupted when the ground started shaking. "Close your eyes heroes," Hera warned.
We did so just in time to hear and explosion and I felt my skin become extremely hot.
The light soon dimmed down but the earthquake continued.
"Quit it with your tantrums," Zeus yelled at my dad. "You almost vapourized your son and did Athena's job for her."
The earthquake stopped and my dad rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. "My bad," he muttered.
"What's her punishment?" My dad asked Zeus. "Banishmen? Mortality? Tartarus?" He asked hopefully.
"I'll have a word with her," Zeus said, making Hera huff. "You can deal with the demigod," he said.
"Death!" My dad exclaimed, getting ready to teleport, but was stopped by Hera.
"Why don't we let this play out and see how Athena plans to do this? Will Poseidon fall for it? Will Ares, Hypnos and Hecate agree with her? How will the demigods react?"
Zeus smiled at his wife in pride. "Let's do that. We'll keep an eye on your family in case Ares falls for whatever Athena has in mind."
I nodded and bowed to the three gods and left the palace along with my friends.
"Oh and next time you barge in I might blast you with my bolt," Zeus called after me.
I smiled to myself. It wasn't a meeting with my uncle without a threat.
"That was cool," Leo exclaimed, jumping around like a child on a sugar rush. In fact, a child would be better than Leo after eating something sweet. I can't really talk though, seeing as I'm also a teensy bit, alright extremely, hyperactive.
"We're like undercover detectives," James said smirking.
"This is going to be fun," Connor said rubbing his hands together in anticipation.
"I can't wait to see their faces," Travis added gleefully.
This was indeed going to be interesting.
