I've been pretty busy over the last couple of days, but couldn't seem to stop myself from writing chapters! By doing so, I've left out a few vital details…such as the letters from Rose! However, if I make a sequel, I will go back in time and include the letters. Thank you for reminding me, Hunters of Artemis 101 and Future Novelist 887. This chapter is mainly about a family reunion and it will be in Christi's POV!

Christi POV

Hi. My name is Christine Madeline Jackson, but people call me Christi. I am the second daughter of Annabeth Chase Jackson and Percy Jackson. My parents have always been there for me. They showed me the right when I was in the wrong and supported me throughout my tough and heartbreaking decisions.

My older sister can be a diva. But even though we've fought and she's not made the best choices, she my star role model. Jay's the only boy of the four of us. He's got a strong, manly side and yet, he's always had a spirited loving side. Joy is the sweetheart. She's sensitive and loyal and fun to be around.

These are the people that have helped me throughout the rollercoaster life is. I've experienced the worst of downs; leukemia and the highest ups; publishing my books. I learned that life is a treasure, something that lasts for a couple years and then is snuffed out like a candle. So why not make the best of it? Why not make people smile and help those that are less fortunate? Why not show people the meaning of life before it's too late?

This is why I have written this book. I wrote down our most memorable events and had it published to show you how fortunate you are…we are! I hope that this really has changed you and you will continue to set an example for others.

As I sit here now, seated on the red velvet couch in Mom and Dad's living room, surrounded by the laughing people who I feel nothing for except undying love, that thought only grows.

Mom is across the room, her blonde hair streaked with pearly white. Her face is alive with glee and she continues to kiss Jay's youngest daughter, Halleigh on her lap. Dad is beside her, arm wrapped about her waist. His sea green eyes match those that belong to Marco, Joy's youngest son, who is showing him his newest swimming pictures.

Hazel and her husband, Robin, are on the love seat, Hazel on his lap. Between Robin's feet is their daughter, Alice. She's applying more lip gloss, as it keep sliding off when she giggles. Their son, Edward, sits on the armrest of the seat and is helping Joy's other son, Drayke, win the highest score of GameBoy.

On the couch beside the Underwoods, is Joy's family. Every time she laughs, her face lights up and she collapses in the crooked arm of her husband, Nathan. Nathan kisses his wife's forehead and then turns to kiss Angelyn's.

Jay and Amanda continue to lock lips every few minutes, only emphasizing their love more. Rose, my ten year old daughter and Athela, Jay's nine year old daughter, are sharing secrets behind my couch. Douglass, Tristan and Alex are talking loudly about the difference between the Russian rockets and the NASA rockets.

And beside me is Carter, her skilled fingers never ceasing their smooth work. My notebook is in my lap and an extra pen is behind my ear. I am in heaven, smothered in ecstasy. Nothing could be more perfect.

"Hey, Christi!" calls Jay. I look up to find the whole room is silent and all eyes are on me. "What are you writing?" I smile slyly and wink at them. Then, I slide the pen behind my ear and tuck the notebook away. "I'm spending time with my family," I reply and know then, that nothing will ever top this.

*Tears up!* Well, guys…this is the end of Percy's Kids! : ( I'm going to miss you guys and miss writing about the characters. I hope by reading this passage, you truly will take in a new aspect of life and follow Christi's wish by appreciating what you have. Because life is short. It really, really is.
