                                                                                  Percy POV

     I had just got back to Camp. I had asked Athena if I could marry Annabeth, and after getting done with the twelve labors of Hercules, I finally got the ring.

     As I prepared to go ask Annabeth to marry me, I got a weird  feeling deep in my gut. I ignored it at the time, but felt that that would come back to bite me.

     When I had good clothes on, I went to the beach to calm down. Then I saw a couple making out on the beach. I didn't want to interfere, however, when I got closer, I could see princess curls on the girl. Then I saw my friend Jason. But that wasn't Piper. As I thought about it some more, I knew what was happening. I immediately said "Annabeth?" She turned around. Her lips were swollen from the passion of the kiss. She had a look of ecstasy on her face, but as soon as she saw me, the look melted.

     "How," I asked. "how, after all me and you, WE, have been through, could you do this. "And Jason," I looked at him. " how could YOU do this to me. I don't understand. Why me, of all people Annabeth, Jason, how could you do this to me? Did you think my fatal flaw would just let you do this?" I asked the two.

     "We thought you were dead." Said Annabeth plainly. "You were gone for so long, WE," She said pointing at Jason. "decided to spice things up a little."

     "What will Piper say about this?" Asked an enraged Percy.

     "She will never know, nor will she ever care." Said a blatantly confident Jason.

     "I guess since you two are so happy, you can have this." I said, throwing the velvet box at Annabeth.

     As I turned to run, I heard Annabeth say one last thing. "I don't care about this ring. Jason can give me one a thousand times better."

                                                                                A Few hours Later

      "I guess this is goodbye." I say after bawling for an hour, and walk out of the border of camp. I had left a note on Thalia's tree that explained what happened.

     As I walked down the street in Manhattan, I thought about what might happen to me. The best thing I decided on was that the Gods would have mercy on me and kill me right then and there.

     When I got to Olympus, I was set on death. I walked into the throne room, and saw none other than my Uncle, the King of the Universe, Lord Thunderpants himself, Zeus. I immediately bowed and asked him to call a meeting of the Gods. when he agreed, I was relieved. I would get to see my father one last time. I immediately give him a hug and said "I'm so sorry, please forgive me."

     Hearing me say that, he asked "Forgiveness for what?"

     "You will see." Is all that I said.

     "Lord Zeus, I please request that you would kill me, as Annabeth and Jason have betrayed me. It is my last, dying wish to have all of my misery end right now."

     "How could you say that about my daughter!" Roared Athena.

     "You can go and look for yourself, but promise not to kill her. Please for her sake."

     Athena then went to Annabeths location, only to see her lip locked with the son of Zeus. She flashed back to Olympus, only to see Percy in tears.

     "You didn't kill her, did you?" "No, I did not. I respected your wish, and did find her kissing Jason. That is no daughter of mine if I have something to say about it."

     "Well, we absolutely cannot kill the savior of Olympus, so we will have to decide what to do with you. And I have a good idea of what to do. If we all agree," Said Zeus. "I think we should put Percy in the Hunt, as its Guardian."

     "WHAT!" Said both me and Artemis at the same time. Well mostly Artemis, but I was still there in the background. "And while we are at it, we may as well make Percy a God."

     At this, I passed out. The last thing I heard was eleven out of the twelve Olympians saying that I should be made a God. I would have to thank my dad for respecting my wish not to become a God.

     When I awoke, all that I saw was twelve beams of energy. I immediately passed out again.

     When I woke up, I felt extremely powerful. I heard "-when he wakes up."

     "What will happen when I wake up?" I asked.

     "Welp, before I forget about it, I should give you this gift." Said Hephaestus. "When I looked in his hand, all I saw was a piece of metal. "What will I do with that?" I asked. "You will get a new sword. This is Olympium Platinum, which is the same stuff your dad's Trident is made out of. So Percy, what will your swords name be?"

      "Eternity." I reply immediately, without hesitation. "Because I will use it to protect the ones I love, for all of eternity."

     "Nice." Is all that Hephaestus said to me. He then began to make a sword, and might I say, it was impressive. When I got it, I looked on the side of it. Aeon, is all that it said. "I love it."

     "We will find out what you domains are." My dad said after a long bit of silence, where I was just looking at my new sword.

     As my father said that, the Three Fates appeared in a brief flash of light.

     "Rise, Perseus Jackson, Hero of Olympus. It has been brought to our attention that someone is looking out for you."

     "Who?" I ask plainly.

     "We cannot say, however he is fairly popular." The Fates said. "We can however tell you what you will be God of. Perseus Jackson, do you accept the role of God of Time, for defeating Kronos, Earth, for defeating Gaea, Tides, Tidal waves, Loyalty, Quests, and Heroes. May the Pegasus, your sacred animals, guide you far, and your swords, Aeon and Anaklusmos, serve you well in many battles to come. Rise, and be noticed as an Olympian."

     With that, the Fates left, and I felt a rush of power enter my body.

     "What!" I heard Zeus say. "He cannot be an Olympian. He will be even more powerful that way."

     "I think that is the point, my brother. And I think the over-watcher of my son Chaos himself."

     At the word Chaos, I passed out, again.
