I Won't Give Up-- Tribute to Percy and Annabeth

“So, Perseus Jackson, what will it be? Will you accept our generous gift?” Zeus demanded, his eyes flashing with barely contained lightning as always.
The gods had just offered me to be…well, a god. One of them, immortal, powerful, not having to worry about any other stupid prophecy. Who could say no to that?
I glanced back to see thalia smiling at me serenely but the smile didn’t quite reach her eyes. My eyes wandered around the room and gazed at the mighty faces of the Olympian gods. Apollo, Ares, Aphrodite, Demeter, Dionysus – did I want to be like them? Poseidon, my father, Athena...

The Wand



    “No, Dad, please!” I screamed into my hands, my eyes full of tears. Hogwarts wasn’t a normal school, not that my family was normal, but I didn’t want to have any part in it. First we had to mover all the way from New York to England, then a letter came telling me I’d been accepted at a school “for witchcraft and wizardry,” a boarding school, none the less.
    My dad held me on his lap. Being eleven, I was a bit old for that, but he’d let me anyway, “just this once,” he’d said.
    “I know...

It wasn’t a surprise when me and Kaden were almost struck por lightning AGAIN! Zeus was the god of the skies and he hated us. It wasn’t our fault our mom had a vengeful personality or that Zeus couldn’t keep his pants up. I can never decide who has mais blame but if they weren’t like this I wouldn’t be alive.

Soon Aubrey would finally allow me to leave the infirmary. She thought I wouldn't be able to walk since I had so many burns on my legs.

I breathed in the crisp smooth air outside. I slowly moved my bare feet down the steps feeling soft green grama between my toes. Leaning against the open door Aubrey laughed. "You are such a weird person!" She said while taking a bite of the maçã, apple she had in her hand.

"Why is that?" I asked as I reached for my silver dagger and belt.

"You haven't been out of the infirmary for 4 days and all you do is stand there silent. I would just run off and start playing....

This took me awhile and it gets better, I have up to chapter six on one computer and I'm going to get them up soon!

I felt like I was drowning slowly in a pool of blackness. I thought I was dying, but that didn’t make much sense if I could think. Then I looked up and the feeling of drowning dissolved as well as the pool of blackness. I shook my head, I couldn’t remember anything. It started to come back…
I was laying on my school campus grounds on an early summer morning. There were giant cachorros surrounding me and some weird guy had just showed up with a pen that turned into a sword and started...
