Rebellion
Chapter I
Percy’s POV
This is it; I am being marched down the street to my death by mortal guards with guns pointed at us. I thought about Annabeth, and how I won’t get those heartfelt goodbyes with her that are in all those sad movies she made me watch with her. I won’t get to tell her I love her, I hope she know that I do. Man I wish I told her that I did. I looked to my left and saw Jason beside me; his eyes were looking towards the ground in shame. We had lost.
As the guards marched to Times Square where Gaea would publicly announce the truth about the world and then execute us. Revealing to all that yes, the Greek gods do exist and yes she did defeat them and only left them alive stripped of their powers so they could see what would happen to the world they used to rule.
My mind flashed back to all that had happened, to being taken by Hera and having my memory’s erased and put in Camp Jupiter. Going to Alaska and eventually regaining my memory. I thought about our trip to Greece and Annabeth and I falling into Tartarus. We fought through the pit and made it to the doors of death and even managed to close them. We thought we had a chance, but that hope was so quickly crushed. We made our way to Athens where Gaea’s army had converged and awaited for her to awaken. We fought so hard but it was too late. The Romans had already destroyed Camp Half-Blood and then monsters either killed or captured the remaining Romans and Greeks.
Hazel and Frank were taken and killed upon an alter their blood being sacrificed to the Earth. Gaea rose and easily defeated her grandchildren (the gods). As a primordial goddess she had the power to take the gods abilities away leaving them only with sight and immortality so they could watch what would become of the world.
The remaining five of us half-bloods in Athens were captured and transported to New York where Gaea would bring down the Empire State Building and Olympus with it. After she successfully destroyed Olympus in Greece and in the Western World, she ascended into complete and unstoppable power. And that is about where we are now, being marched to Times Square to our deaths.
I had to do something I couldn’t just give up could I? What would Annabeth say? “Get off your butt and do something seaweed brain!” I could almost hear her saying. I have to do something! But what? I looked around and noticed that we are walking by a fountain. Maybe if I concentrate hard enough I can will the water to move, even without Poseidon’s help. I focused on the movement of the water, how it bent and move without a care in the world, how it could be relaxing to the body or a killer in a storm. I demanded it to move, but it seemed to ask who are you to command me? I am Percy Jackson, Son of Poseidon; the oceans of the world are my birthright! The currents of the world do not command me and throw me around, I command them!
I felt power surging through me and suddenly water burst forth from the stone carved fountain and slammed the guard’s onto the ground. I willed the water to encircle their necks and start to squeeze. They started to gasp for air, they were almost dead but then Jason yelled, “Percy no! We don’t kill mortals! They are just being tricked into working with Gaea, they don’t deserve to die!” “There is no other way Jason, I don’t like it any more than you do but it has to be done!” I retorted. “No Percy, this isn’t right!” I didn’t like him finish, I willed the water to crush their necks and the guards fell limp onto the floor.
I went through their pockets till I found the keys to the hand cuffs that bound me and Jason arms and unlocked them. We agreed to go and try to rescue the others before leaving town.
We ran back to the building where we were being kept beforehand and began to search the rooms, it didn’t take long for Jason and I to find the room where out weapons were being held. I grabbed my trusty ballpoint pen anaklusmos, Riptide in English. I saw Jason rummage through things till he found his Imperial Gold coin that could transform into a Roman style short sword or a long golden javelin. Before we left to find out friends I saw one last thing a small Celestial Bronze dagger that looked like Annabeth’s before she lost it in Tartarus. “She’ll love this.” I muttered to myself.
After we left the storage room we walked down numerous hallways and killed several telekhine while looking for the room where we had been previously kept, after we went through countless rooms we finally found it. I kicked the locked door down and barged into the room. Inside a big cell were all of our friends were laying down sleeping. I ran over to the door and started to fiddle with the lock. But before I could even attempt to open a swarm of monsters and mortals charged in. “Jason!” I yelled, “You hold them off I will open this thing up.” He nodded and began to slash at them, he cut through monster after monster and incapacitated any mortal that attack without killing them, I rolled my eyes and continued to work on the lock. “Percy? How did you?” I looked to the voice, “Annabeth!” I exclaimed.
“Percy you got it open yet?” Jason yelled over the noises and growls of the monsters. “Not yet keep fighting!” I responded. I returned to work and ask Annabeth, “Are you ok? We managed to uh… escape the guards and we came back to rescue you.” She responded, “Percy, I’m fine but you need to go!”
“What?” I asked
“Percy you may have stayed in their cabin for three nights but you are no child of Hermes, you can’t pick that lock in time, go save yourself and Jason!”
“No it’s ok Annabeth I got this” I said determined
“Percy…. Please… go” I looked up she had tears in her eyes. She was begging for me to leave her to die so that I could live. Tears rolled down my cheek, “I can’t live without you Annabeth, please don’t make me do this.”
“You have to defeat Gaea, Percy, you have to save the world.” She said. The world seemed to freeze around us; I didn't care about the raging battle just a few yards to the right of me. My whole world was in a small box separated from me by hard steel bars. “I love you Annabeth…” I finally said.
“I love you too Seaweed Brain” She said. My hand reached through the bar and ran through her hair. I stepped back and said, “Jason, time to go.”
“But we can’t just leave them!” he demanded
“Jason!” I said, “We have to.” He looked over and saw the tears running down Annabeth’s face, and she nodded to him.
“Fine, out that window.” He said. Jason smashed the glass with the butt of his sword and jumped out. I followed but before I leapt over the side, I took one last look.
Leo, the genius inventor. Piper, the best charm speaker I had ever seen. And the love of my life, Annabeth Chase. I looked over them one last time and leaped out knowing I would never see them again.
When I hit the ground Jason asked, “Hey man, you ok?” I didn’t answer. Instead I said, “We need to get out of this city.” So we took off and I knew that Annabeth and I did get that last heartfelt goodbye that are in all those sad movies.
