A/N: Hey guys, so this is my first ever Fan fiction! I have read a lot of Percy Jackson stories and my favorite by far is the Guardian stories, so here is my version of one, but with a few twists. Read on to find out more!
Updated 07/5/18 – Please read: Hey guys. Firstly I'd like to apologise to any fans I have remaining for my, ahem, four year break from this story.
I started this story in June 2014, at which point I was 14 years old, and I've only recently been able to bring myself to look back over my work. I originally wrote this story to express my ideas, viewpoints and take part in the fanfiction society, but I suppose once high school restarted I was jarred back to reality and stopped me from uploading. I've always been described as being 'mature for my age,' but looking back at this story now it's evident that as a younger writer I simply couldn't express my thoughts and emotions as powerfully and coherently as I'd have liked.
Originally I thought I'd come back to the story, edit the previous chapters and finish it but I think that doing so (in addition to being a mammoth of a task) would cause me to lose a special memory of my past self. Due to this I'm finally going to put this chapter of my life to bed, and declare this story as being discontinued. I am really sorry for all of those people who still message me asking me to continue this story, but hopefully this message will stop people from reading almost a 100k words only to find that the story's uncompleted.
Percy POV
Pain. That was the only sensation that i could feel. It was in these moments that i could feel why being loyal is actually a fatal flaw. Its not because of what happens in battles or everyday life, but what happens when all you cared about turned away from you and you are left with a broken heart. That is real pain. I suppose you are wondering why I am in such a state? Well, I guess I should go from when it all started, for that week after the Giants war when my life took a turn for the worse...
Time jump: 1 week in the past
I was sitting contently with my friends, all laughing together without a care in the World. My beautiful girlfriend, Annabeth was beside me, my hand on top of hers. We could finally be together, no dangers, no looming wars. We were at peace, having just won the Giants War and with the next great prophecy not being said, implying many years of peace. That's when HE showed up. A loud clattering could be heard at the camp borders, and my friends and I immediately got out our weapons and rushed to the camp borders. The war may have been finished, but that didn't mean that monsters didn't still roam around the world and around Camp Half Blood. Once we arrived at camp we saw a lone boy being chased by none other that The Minotaur. The boy quickly looked up and I could see his sea green eyes that looked so much like my own. Oh the irony, another son of Poseidon being chased by the Minotaur, just like what happened to me all of those years ago. After i got over my initial shock that my dad had another son, I wondered if i should see how my apparent half brother coped with the threat, but I realized my friends would never agree and that dad wont be very happy with me if i let anything happen to my new 'brother' before he gets any training. With a sigh i uncapped my pen and my faithful pen, Riptide sprung free in all its pride and glory. I quickly scanned for any other monsters before charging forward and swinging Riptide just as the Minotaur was about to chop my 'brother' in half, who, might I add, clearly didn't have a brain as he chose to stand still as the Minotaur swiped. I pushed back and he stumbled, looking with fury at whoever dared to stop it from its should have been easy kill. When he looked at me, recognition passed through his eyes and he charged at me. Once again i jumped out of his way just as Jason called down a bolt of lighting, and Annabeth turned visible and impaled the monster straight through the head, into that tiny brain of his. Before he had even finished dissolving into the golden dust, Annabeth had turned and aided my brother to his feet. He looked around, amazed as we lead him through the camp barrier and into the watching gaze of Chiron, who simply waited until we reached him and began telling him what happened. When the campers gathered around they turned to him and just one question was being repeated in all of their heads, Who was this boys godly parent. I was about to step forwards and tell them when a trident appeared above his head, glowing a powerful sea green color before disappearing. In Its place stood my father. We all immediately fell to one knee and bowed deeply to him before he told us to Stand up
Poseidon POV
I watched all the campers fall to one knee and bow before me, all incredibly in sinc after the effects of the last War left them closer to each other than ever before. Among the campers were several Romans who, after the war, decided to stay in Camp Half Blood and help with the rebuilding and exploring the Greek ways of life. I told them to rise and then started to introduce my son to them " everyone, welcome my son David into Camp Half Blood! He is a worthy son, and i expect you to train him hard to make him a talented warrior. Give him no special trea..." as i was finishing the sentence a wierd feeling came over me and i started to feel like I wasn't in control anymore. A sudden leap in my blood circulation made me jolt my head before continuing" give him no special weapon! But i expect him to be treated well from all of you, and i want him to be made the head counselor of my cabin so he can choose the level of his training." As i said this many spasms went through my body as if i couldn't properly control it. I gazed around at the faces without nonrecognition before giving David a smile and teleporting myself back to Olympus, my body suddenly back under my own control. I shrugged my soldiers and got on with my work
Davids POV
I looked at all the campers staring at me in shock and smirked. I now had a place of power among these people and it seemed like my dad was pretty powerful. Grinning, i turned to that blonde who has 'helped' me defeat that monster. I casually said " thanks for helping me defeat that monster Minotaur thingy but i didn't really need any help, I had it under control. You are really beautiful by the way, so, whats your name?" I smirked as i saw her frown at my Minotaur comment dissolve with a blush when i called her beautiful. Looks like i had a admirer!
Percy POV
I looked angrily as David flirted with Annabeth and was shocked when i saw her blush. I was relieved that she didn't answer his question, but was confused at why my dad seemed so fidgety when he was talking, why he didn't seem to recognize anyone and didn't even look at me. I was quite honestly amazed that he gave David the counselor position. I didn't mind of course but he could have warned me first at least. Yeah, my dad was acing quite strangely. Chiron quickly put the campers back to training and chores before taking David to see Mr D. I headed of to get back to work, this had been a interesting day...
So there it is! Please review, I want to know how ive done and if I've set the scene well or not. I would like to point out this is just the opener, a slight insight to whats to come, so that why it may seem a bit slow, it'll speed by next chapter, promise. So yeah, R&R please, and cya next chapter
