Percy's POV:

I quietly walked through the woods. How did I end up from a happy demigod to a depressed god in a month? My mom and Paul died in a car crash, Annabeth broke up with me saying work was too much and we're "better as friends," and then I had to be kidnapped and tortured by some of Kronos and Gaea's followers for two weeks. As if the emotional torture wasn't enough. At least I broke out though. Only my Dad, Zeus, Hades, and Athena know what happened, I didn't want pity from the others. Now I'm the god of Waves, Tides, Time, Heroes, and Stars. And because of the connection between the tides and the moon, Artemis has been training me for a week on how to be a god, and I have to travel with a group of man hating girls. Joy. The worst part is they all think I'm some power hungry jerk. I sighed as I finally saw my campsite, which about a mile away from the Hunters, and climbed into my tent. Maybe the nightmares wouldn't come tonight.

Artemis POV:

"My Lady, there's something wrong. He's not acting like himself. He hasn't fit the whole week. He would always talk to me My Lady, not give a nod of acknowledgement. All he does is say yes and no, and that's only because he has to! And he's hiding something, My Lady! No matter the fact he broke my best friend's heart, he is still my cousin and one of my best friends!" Thalia exclaimed.

It was true. The Savior of Olympus was acting different. Even though he did cave in to the want for power, he still did save me once.

"Come on, let's go to his camp." I said.

She smiled slightly and nodded, and we started our o mile walk towards Percy's camp. The walk was quiet, until we were close to Percy's camp. We heard screaming, agonized screaming. And it was Percy. We shared a glance and ran to his camp. No monsters. The screaming was from Percy's tent.

"NO! NO! MOM!"

"What happened to Sally?" Thalia whispered.

"NO! YOU CAN'T HURT THEM! HURT ME, NOT THEM!" was yelled.

I shared a glance with Thalia again. What was going on? That's also when I realized it was silent. Not a scream. I hesitantly walked towards the tent.

"Percy? It's me, Thalia. Artemis is here too. Can we come in?" Thalia asked.

"Sure." was his muffled reply.

Thalia and I walked in, only to see Percy putting on a shirt. I gasped. He had many scars, and they weren't from battles. I just know it.

"What happened Percy? We were worried and we came to check on you, but we heard you screaming..." Thaia asked.

Percy refused to look at us.

"I can't tell you. I can't. I don't want your pity." he whispered.

"Don't be a Seaweed Brain, Percy! Tell us what happened!" Thalia snapped.

Prccy shook his head, looking down at his lap.

"Perseus, look at us." I said quietly.

He shook his head.

"That was an order as your trainer, Perseus." I growled.

He slowly looked up, and that's when I saw them. Tears.

"I can't tell you. I can't. Just, please. I'll tell you later on, but not now." he whispered.

More tears were rolling now, and his eyes held pain and suffering. I nodded.

"Soon." I agreed and walked woth Thalia out of the tent.

Whatever had happened to the Son of Poseidon, it was terrible.

-One Week Later-

Percy hasn't told us anything yet, and he's just getting worse. Now he doesn't even say yes or no. He nods in acknowledgement, or shakes his head yes or no. Not a sound. The only time he even spoke to me was to ask if gods had to sleep, and if he could just take watch all night. Right now, I was in the Throne Room, waiting for the topic of Percy to come up. Percy wasn't here, since he was the main topic of the meeting.

"Now, onto Percy. How is his training going?" Zeus asked.

Poseidon leaned forward, eager to ear about his son.

"His training is doing very well, but he is not father. It's so bad that it is worrying me, and the other Hunters are starting to take notice." I said warily.

Poseidon shot up.

"What do you mean? What is wrong with my son?" he asked, worried.

"Well, he doesn't speak. Last week, he at least said yes or no when he had to. Now he just nods his head. He has not been sleeping for about a week. He asked me if gods had to sleep, and then said he would be guard at all times. Thalia and I were worried about him last week, and we went to his camp. He was screaming. Screaming for his mother, and then saying for somebody not to hurt his friends." I explained.

It was terrible just thinking about it. It made me sick to my stomachs. Zeus, Athena, and Poseidon shared a look.

"They should know." Athena said quietly.

Zeus and Poseison nodded warily.

"Perseus has been through a lot in the past month. Annabeth Chase role up with him, claiming that they were better off as friends, but she was actually cheating on him. Then, Sally Jackson and Paul Blofis died in a car crash. Lastly, Percy was taken by some of Kronos and Gaea's remaining forces a week. They tortured him. Percy was able to escape. He didn't want your pity, which is why we never told you. We offered him god hood to help him heal. We didn't know he was this bad..." Zeus trailed off.

All of us were shocked. Percy truly had suffered. And I thought that've had been power hungry and had broken Annabeth's heart.

"May I tell Thalia? Immediately? As in right now?" I asked once I came over the shock.

Zeus nodded and I flashed towards my camp. I heard people yelling, and I felt all the hunters and Percy there. All except Thalia.

"You are no different than other men! Disgusting, power hungry, arrogant!" Susan, a fourteen year old hunter, yelled.

Percy stood there. Not saying anything, letting no emotion come across his face.

"YOU ARE AN. ARROGANT, FILTHY MAN! JUST LIKE ALL OTHERS! YOUR MOTHER MIST BE ASHAMED TO BE YOUR MOTHER!" Phoebe roared.

Pain then filled Percy's eyes. It looked as if he would cry. He turned and walked back towards his camp.

"What did you do to him?" I asked, trying to hide my anger.

"Yelled at him. He came asking for Thalia when she was out. He has no right to talk to Thalia." Phoebe replied.

"What about me?" Thalia asked as she walked into camp, a small grin on her face.

"The filth named Percy came looking for you, and he had no right to, so we told him what he was."

Thalia and I shared a look. Maybe he was going to tell her what was wrong. Suddenly, an agonized scream came from Percy's camp. The scream was so powerful the ground shook and the birds flew from the trees. Thalia and I shared another look and took off running towards Percy. We got there in about five minutes. I looked around until my eyes landed on some writing in the dirt.

"I shouldn't have become a god. I'm sorry. Goodbye." I read aloud.

Thalia gasped, and I turned to look where she was. There. In the shade, lie Percy Jackson. Percy Jackson, the Savior of Olympus twoce, with a knife coated with Olympian Poison. Percy Jackson, the one who just attempted godly suicide.
