~Five Months Ago~

Life was good.

But what happened in the next few days was not what I had expected.

I would've expected that some random evil force would've attack, and then life would be turned upside down, but no. Instead, some douchenozzle came in and claimed to be a son of Poseidon. His name is Jake Radic.

And even worse? Annabeth and all the other girls at camp 'fancied' him. He went around and bragged about how much 'stronger' he is than me. Then he started...dating Annabeth.

I was alone. From the few times the Hunters visited, none of them liked him, but they'd been a bit nicer to me. Thalia spent a lot of time with me.

And when he wasn't in the Underworld, Nico visited me, and we talked about being alone.

I spent some time with Grover. Grover didn't like Jake. Something about his aura...too sassy and egoistic. I doubted Poseidon was his father, but then I remembered the turtle guy.

I started wandering from camp more and more and farther and farther away. I began to think about what good it was to even stay at camp anymore. There's nobody there who cares for me. Nobody who stays there all year, at least.

Then the big day came. I decided to leave. That left one tiny problem. What would I tell people who met me while I was out? I would tell them my name is...Glaciem.

That very day, Perseus Jackson died. But, when he died, Glaciem was born.

~Present Day~

It's February, my least favorite month.

It's one of the times I'm weakest. The snow melts and my power melts slightly with it.

I'm wandering on Manhattan Island. Not that I want to be here...

My mom and Paul called earlier this week and told me that bad news had come from the camp. Not only were the Titans rising but Tartarus himself was going to rise above the surface and onto the face of earth (not very polite to walk on your wife, is it?). Nico, Thalia, and Grover Iris Messaged me and said the same thing.

I guess I'm going to my least favorite place on earth. Camp Half-Blood...

The place that used to be my home. But also the place where everyone betrayed you. A tiny voice says to me.

I walk into the woods and grab at the cloak that covers my face and identity.

I look at my faithful sword, Riptide. The trident had shifted into a snowflake after some time. Nobody would be able to recognize me...I hope.

I look at the trees around me that now glitter with frost. Beautiful...it's amazing what some cold, or freezing can do to something. It changed me. I'm different now.

I summon up my courage and walk into view of Thalia's Tree.

I decide to play a game on the campers and walk slowly to the trunk of the majestic pine tree. I raise my shaking hand and write with solid ice, "I have finally returned. Let vengeance...begin."
