I guess you can say that I'm a new author here and I've decided to write a reading the PJO books. I know there are a lot of these stories out there, but a lot of them are very OC and the authors don't bother to finish them. I'm pretty sure that I'll finish the series, but I won't update all the time. I'm very busy with schoolwork and friends/family. I'm not even sure people will read this.

Disclaimer: I don't own PJO. If I did, I'd probably be making millions right now. This disclaimer probably goes for the whole book since I'm rubbish at remembering to put these.

Prologue: The Newest Greek Myth

It was finally summer for Percy Jackson and his friends. As Percy strolled along the beach, he was wondering if he was going to lead a peaceful life, or be annoyed by a life of monster freaks. He was leaning towards the peaceful life. He could just sit back and relax; watch the sea. In fact, he did just that. Almost immediately, he was interrupted by a voice. When Percy saw who it was, he jumped up in surprise.

"Nico?" he asked.

"Who else would it be," the other boy, Nico di Angelo said, cracking a smile.

"So what are you doing here?" Percy asked. "There isn't any trouble, is there?" he asked with a dark, but equally worried tone.

"I don't know, I just had a feeling I was supposed to be here, like maybe something was going to happen."

"Well I hope not. I kinda like this quiet life."

"When is it ever quiet for a half-blood?"

"When you're dead of course," said a new voice. "You should know all about that, Nico."

"Oh whatever," Nico retorted badly. Percy, on the other hand gave the girl a kiss on the cheek. That's right, it was Annabeth Chase, Percy's girlfriend for nearly three months.

"So what are you doing out here in this November weather, Annabeth. And what's that in your hand,"

"Just so you know, I was looking for you. And this," she said holding up a book with a mischievous smile, " is the reason I came for you." The object, now in clear sight, turned out to be a book.

"A book, Annabeth. Really?" Percy asked. "You know I don't like reading."

"Well I 'm sure you'll be interested in this," said a new voice.

"Thalia?" Annabeth asked with an even huger smile.

"You got it," said Thalia said. The huntress in her silvery clothing smiled and greeted everyone.

"Seriously, where in Hades do you guys pop out of?" Percy asked with a smile.

"I don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty sure Nico's the only one from Hades," said Thalia.

"Not funny guys," Nico growled while the others burst into laughter.

"Well I thought it was funny," said a new voice, overlapping the sound of hooves.

"Grover?" Annabeth asked, as the man walked out of the forest and straight toward them. But this wasn't a man. It was a boy who looked about seventeen but instead of legs and feet, he had furry goat legs and hooves. Along with him, was a girl of seventeen, with frizzy red hair and bright green eyes.

"Don't forget me," said the newest girl.

"Rachel," said Annabeth.

"The Oracle, right?" asked Thalia.

"Yup, that's me. I came here because the Oracle sent me a vision of us reading a book," said Rachel.

"You probably mean this," Annabeth said, holding up the book so Rachel could see.

"So what's this book called anyways?" Percy asked, bored. If we're going to read this, we might as well go ahead and get started with it."

"It's called, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief," Annabeth said with a smile.

"Let me see that," said Percy pushing past his friends. "Whoa. This is insane. Hey I can read it! Why is that?" he said this all very quickly.

"The book's probably been enchanted for demigods to read," Annabeth said matter-of-factly.

"So what are we going to do," Percy asked, already knowing the answer but dreading it.

"What do you think, Seaweed Brain," Annabeth said with a scowl. "We're going to read it of course.

"Fine, but can we go somewhere else, I hate the beach. The sand gets stuck in my hooves and fur," Grover complained.

"Sure. In fact, let's go to Thalia's tree," Percy said. "I don't – I mean – we don't want more people than needed," he said very quickly.

"Don't worry Percy; we'll be sure to tell everyone what you're thinking about in your head, during your quests," said Thalia, with a crazy smile.

"Yeah Seaweed Brain. I'd like to see what you thought about me when you met me for the first time," said Annabeth with a smile just like Thalia's. And seeing the looks on everybody else's faces, he knew they were thinking the same thing.

"Oh gods," Percy muttered under his breath. "Let's get this over with," he said as he got up and followed his friend's too Half-Blood Hill.

So that's the first chapter done and since it is Winter Break you can expect one soon this week. Signing off,

-SOH

Yeah, I got to figure out something better than that for my endings.
