So I've had this story in my head for a while now, I figured I would write a bit of it and see if anyone likes it. It should be a to easier to write as the plot is already there I'm just having my spin on it. BTW I'm going for a third person omniscient view unlike my other story, but I don't write very often so it might be fucked up at times.

June 3rd, 2002

Sally Jackson was on a much needed vacation with her two year old son, Percy.

The single mother worked seven days a week just to be able to pay for bills, food, and the babysitter to handle Percy. He was a strange child that took a lot of patience to take care of, not all babysitters were up to the task.

He rarely cried, but on the occasions he did, weird things happened around the house, pipes bust in the sink, the water line breaks. There was even a time when all the fire hydrants in a three city block radius burst open.

But now they had the whole weekend to themselves, just her and Percy in their own little cabin at Montauk Beach. That was the plan.

The Fates thought other wise.

It started off as a normal day at the beach, everybody enjoying themselves, playing in the water or like Sally and Percy, basking in the sun, enjoying the feel of the waves lapping the sand in front of them.

Unfortunately, like any great day, it had to come to an end. Sally took Percy back to her cabin and had just set him down in his crib when she heard the howls.

She immediately went stiff as a board, the sound sending chills down her spine. 'What', she thought looking out the window into the black of night, 'was that a wolf'.

Then again another howl, louder than a lions roar sounding just outside the cabin. Percy started to cry, as rain began beat on the side of the cabin.

Sally grabbed her phone, frantically turning it on but seeing the no service symbol. The rain and wind really started to pick up, lightning flashing through the sky, the restless oceans waves crashing onto the beach so far they were almost touching the cabin.

"Shhh, baby its ok, its ok", Sally whispered as she hugged Percy to her. Something big was pounding at the door, she could hear digging at the base of it, something sticking its muzzle underneath sniffing.

"ok, ok", Sally said setting Percy back in his crib just as the door burst open, and she turned around and had to hold in her scream.

A massive dog loomed in the doorframe, it had to be the size of a grizzly bear maybe bigger. Its fur was black and red, eyes a blazing orange, claws as long as her fingers, and fangs the size of her hand.

It stared right past Sally, its gaze fixed in Percy.

Sally looked behind her, locked eyes with her Percy, then back at the dog. She looked back at Percy, "I'm sorry baby, mommy loves you more than anything".

With that, a mortal not armed with anything, charged the massive beast known to take out children of the gods.

But again she was just a mortal, and stood no chance as the hell hound pounced, claws digging into her chest as it bit into her throat killing her almost instantly.

All that was left in the room as two year old Percy crying harder than he ever had in the brief moment he had been on earth, and a hell hound that had just torn apart his mother.

The waves were hitting the sides of the cabin now, rain coming down so hard it was becoming record breaking flood conditions.

The hound slowly stalked towards Percy, licking the blood off its snout.

It reached the foot of the crib and it leapt at Percy, planning to pounce on him just like it did his mom seconds early, but the window on the side of the cabin shattered, ocean water came flooding in.

The hell hound had just managed to rake it claws across Percy's face as the room filled with salt water and sent the hound crashing into the wall, earning a yelp out of the predator, just as more and more waved pounded on the cabin.

The structure creaked and moaned before it gave way from the stress of the unforgiving ocean. Sending pieces of wood and glass into the beast before the water swept it out to sea.

The only thing left of the structure was Percy, bleeding, and standing in his crib, hands gripping the enclosed cage, crying into the night.

The police arrived at the beach that morning, inspecting damage of the city wide hurricane that had appeared out of no where.

There was pieces of the cabin strewn all along the beach, they found Sally Jackson underneath a piece of the roof. Her face lifeless and her chest torn to shreds.

"What the hell could've done this", said one of the cops looking around at the wreckage then back at Sally.

"I don't know, but whatever it was it-", he got cut off by a child's cry.

"God almighty was that a kid", the other officer said running along the beach towards the cry.

That's where they found Percy still standing in his crib, covered in blood, still crying out for his mom.


11 years later

Percy was sitting on the bleachers of his 7th school in the past three years, Westover Hall.

The orphanage he was in must've got tired of sending him to school after school, so they sent him to live here a military academy. "Teach him some discipline", they had said.

Not that he minded, the social worker who basically owns that place hated him. "Mrs. Dodds", he scoffed looking around the gym at all the people dancing before going back to his thoughts.

She had hated him, ever since he got there when he was a baby, she had it out for him. He never really knew why, they both just had a mutual hate for each other.

But with his hate all he got do to was give her dirty looks, unfortunately she got to make sure all he did was chores, sleep and school, nothing more nothing less.

That's why he ran away all the time, and that why he's here now.

Percy sighed as he looked around, he was the only one sitting down. 'Probably shouldn't be more of an outcast than I normally am', he thought as he started walking.

He looked down at the floor, his dark emerald eyes of his reflection starring back at him.

'God I need a hair cut', he thought, while running his hands through it trying to get it to stay down, but unfortunately it stayed as ruffled as ever.

Still starring at the floor, he looked at the scars going across his face. Three distinct jagged lines starting up at his forehead going across his left eye and all the way down through his jaw.

'This is why you never got adopted' he thought frowning at the image of himself. All his other friends he made at the orphanage almost always got adopted. They got better homes and he got to stay in hell.

He was brought out of his thoughts when he ran into to someone. "Sorry" he quickly said as he backed up to get a better look.

It was a girl, probably about his age maybe younger, with silky black hair and pale skin. "It's fine", the girl said turning back to the boy next to her who was starring at him.

"What happened to your face", the boy blatantly asked pointing at him. The girl immediately slapped his hand down whispering for him to be nice

"Its alright", Percy said. "I don't remember it happened when I was a kid". Part of that was true, he did remember. He remembered all of it.

He just knew better than to admit that, he hated the looks of pity people gave him.

Percy tuned back into the conversation just as another guy came up to them. He had curly brown hair and a cap on.

"Hi Bianca, Nico", he said to them before he turned to Percy and his smile wavered a bit.

"You must be new"

"I'm Percy", he said extending his hand for a handshake, his hand was shaking a bit. "Well welcome to Westover", Grover said as he spotted some people coming into the gym. "I'll be right back". Grover walked towards them.

When Grover reached the three kids that entered the gym he broke character, "Guys we got a serious problem"

"What problem", Thalia said scanning to room eyeing the two kids they were here to grab.

"There's third one now", Grover said looking at Thalia, " And he's different, his scent is a LOT stronger,"

"So we'll grab him too", said Scott the son of Poseidon looking at the now three kids.

"It won't be that easy, I'm sure thorn would've grabbed the two a long time ago but once Percy got here it threw him off. I don't think he was expecting it".

"Whose Percy"

"Gods, the third kid, we need to grab them befor-", Grover got interrupted when he couldn't see them anymore. "Where did they go".

"There", Annabeth said pointing to thorn who was ushering them out the door, as they all went to follow Thorn.


The moment Grover left Percy was left making awkward conversation with Bianca and Niko, before Dr. Thorn come up and grabbed the three of them as he started ushering them towards one of the exits.

"Dude what the hell", Percy said shrugging him off before pain erupted in his shoulder.

"Next one goes in your head", Thorn growled as he grabbed Percy and shoved him in with Bianca and Niko as the exited the building.

He walked with Bianca as he pulled the spike out of his shoulder, 'where the hell did he get this', he thought.

"Were at the extraction point", Thorn said into a radio. "You know I would have grabbed the two of you earlier, but you sir", he said pointing at Percy. " We had to change the date for you for you"

Percy remained silent

'And for you two-", Thorn began.

"HEY", Yelled Thalia pointing her spear at thorn, "Let them go"

Thalia stood 20 meters away from Thorn, shield and spear out. Annabeth, Scott, and Grover right behind her.

Thorn shoved the three of them to the ground, "Demigods now days"

Then thorn began to change, his arms extending, feet and hands turning into paws, and his chest grew until there was a full lion in front of them, although it still had the face of Thorn. He roared then charged. Thalia immediately went on the offensive, but quickly changed when he slashed at her shield making her slide back three feet.

Scott ran at him sliding under a volley of spikes but was immediately back handed as if he were a fly.

Grover started to play a song on his pipes, the grass start wrapping around thorns ankles but he was much to strong as he tore through them as if it were tissue paper. But it gave Scott enough time to get back on his feet, and ran at Thorn again, although a lot more weary this time.

He duck under Thorns first slash, and stabbed Thorn in the stomach, earning a yell from Thorn. Scott leapt back and expected for Thorn to start dissolving but instead he just grimaced and pulled the blade out of him.

"Its gonna take a lot more than that to get rid of me", Thorn said smiling. But his smile was cut short as a hunting horn sounded throughout the courtyard.

"Great, hunters", Thalia grumbled

A group of twenty girls entered the courtyard, the oldest maybe 15 the youngest as young as 10.

One of the older hunters stepped foreword, she had coppery colored skin and her silky black hair was braided down her back with a silver tiara on her head. "Permission to kill my lady".

One of the younger girls stepped forward as well. "Permission granted"

Thorn looked around wildly, before spotting Percy, and the other kids by the cliff.

"NO", yelled Annabeth who seemed to come out of thin air as she jumped on the monster driving her knife into his back.

"Arghhh", yelled Thorn as he stumbled towards the edge.

Zoe dropped her bow, pulling out her knives and sprinting towards thorn. She was just able to knock Annabeth off his back and stab her hunting knives into his chest as he fell backwards off the cliff, Zoe falling as well from the momentum.

Percy who was standing there in shock of what was happening, finally started to move as he dove forward and grabbed Zoe's hand as she tumbled off the cliff with Thorn. There was a second when he thought he actually had her, but like most things in his life it took a turn for the worse.

Thorn managed to grab onto Zoe leg as he was falling, his body weight giving the sudden jerk needed for Percy to lose what little grip he had on the ground and fall off as well.

So that's the first chapter of this story. Sorry for any grammar mistakes I'm terrible at catching them. Hopefully once I start getting into it they will be longer. BTW this is a Perzoe story but I'm still stuck on an idea of how to get her out of the hunt, so I would love some more ideas on that. And I did kinda, definitely ripped off the idea of him falling off the edge with Zoe from Mr. Anaklusmos, I just like that scene a lot so I had my take on it. Alright, tell me ways I can improve and what not, peace.
