Hello peoples! This is the first fanfic that I've ever posted so don't hate me if it's bad. Tell me what ya think.

Disclaimer: As much as I wish that I did, I don't own PJO or HoO. RR has the luck to be it's writer and owner.

Annabeth was sitting in one of the living areas of the big house reading. The room was a fair size with plenty of mismatched couches and chairs. The walls were a calming blue colour and a window looked out across camp showing everyone going from around doing their daily activities. It was lightly snowing, giving a whole christmasy feeling to the place.

Because Christmas was in 2 days, there was a tree in the corner that was decorated spectacularly. As was the room, with lights, garland, and little toy figures. A fire burned in the fire place and a tray of cookies sat on a side-table that was next to the couch that Annabeth was on.

The book she was reading was, of course, about architecture. Annabeth was so enthralled that she didn't at first notice the nine people that appeared before her. She probably wouldn't have noticed at all had Nico not landed on a table went he arrived.

Annabeth looked up startled. "When did you guys get here?"

"About a second ago," Nico stood up, rubbing his arm.

"Ookay…" Annabeth looked around with a question mark on her face.

"I'm so confused…" Rachel said. "One minute I'm in the cave painting and the next I'm here."

"Yeah, I was climbing up the rock wall and now I'm not." Jason said.

Just as Annabeth was about to say go into some logical explanation, a letter appeared on the table in the middle of the room. As if on cue, everyone backed up and sat down somewhere.

"Whoa!" Leo shook his head. "Why did I just sit down?"

Piper picked up the letter. "It's addressed to all of us. It says "Dear Annabeth, Thalia, Nico, Jason, Leo, Piper, Travis, Connor, Rachel, and Clarisse."

"Hey, why am I last?" Clarisse complained.

"Does it really matter? Open it Piper." Thalia said, relaxing a bit. "And I guess I should say hi. It's been a while."

"Thalia!" Annabeth cried and got up to hug her friend.

"How are you doing, Sis?" Jason asked.

"Not bad. Sure hope Lady Artemis doesn't think I just ran off…" Thalia mused.

"Well, some sort of magic is obviously at work here, so I'm guessing she knows where you are." Annabeth said. "What does the letter say, Piper?"

Piper cleared her throat and started:

"Dear Demigods,

I am sure you are all very confused right now. But, to put it simply, there is something you need to read. Well, I guess need isn't the right word. Perhaps should. You should read these. I have discovered some books written about your friend, Percy Jackson. They are about his adventures from the time he found out he was a demigod to the present. Most of you will be in these books, so you will know parts of what happened, but these books are in Percy's perspective. You'll get a look into his mind, and Piper, Leo, and Jason will get to learn what made him so important. And don't worry about people worrying where you are. Time will be frozen from the time you start reading the books until the time that you finish. There are 5 books. The first will appear once you are done reading this and the rest will come in time. Happy reading!

From,

Sid-Nilos

A book appeared on the table and everyone stared at it apprehensively.

"Should we read it?" Rachel asked.

"I don't think we have a choice," Annabeth replied. "Time is frozen until we finish all five books. Plus, this will be cool. I for one want to read them."

"I do too. That way we can finally see find out what happened to Percy and what he's all about." Leo seconded.

Clarisse grinned evilly. "I can hear about the punk getting pulverized. I'm in!"

"Then let's read!" The Stolls said together.

"Who wants to read fist?" Jason asked the room.

"I will," Annabeth answered. She picked the book up and got comfortable on the chouch. She snorted. "The title is 'The Lightning Thief.' How original"

All of the campers who knew what had happened on Percy's first quest laughed while the others just looked confused.

"We should read the synopsis first," Piper suggested. Annabeth turned it over and read it to herself.

"Na, could be a spoiler for you guys," She said. "Here we go."

Yes, I know, that was short. But it's only the first chapter. If you review, you'll get more. Happy reading!
