Description
Percy Jackson grew up in the town of Manhattan, New York. He was a nobody there. At his school, he had no one but his best friend, Annabeth Chase. They'd been friends since they were in kindergarten, when he stood up for her when a boy told her she was a nerd. Annabeth Chase knew one thing from the moment she became friends with a sea-green-eyed boy named Percy. He meant a lot to her in ways no one understood. Because through all her struggles back home, he was the goofball that kept her smiling at school. Thalia Grace knew there wasn't a place she could call home. Her mother was a drunk. Her dad was nowhere to be seen. But Thalia stayed for the protection of the roof. Not for her mother's long drunken fits. Kelp Head. That's what she called Percy. Because she loved him. But hated him because he was so happy. Nico Di Angelo thought no one could understand his pain when his sister, Bianca, died. He decided to blame it on himself. But he mainly blamed it on the sea-green-eyed boy also caught in the attack. Why did Bianca have to die and not him? Inside, he knew it wasn't Percy's fault. He knew Percy had no fault in it and that Nico was just crazy. And he didn't hate Percy. He loved Percy. But when life comes to you from the moment you are born, the only thing your mother could say to God was "help". Because life is cruel. When you love someone, they're taken. That's what happened when Percy disappeared from their lives when they were twelve. When he came back, a whole different person. When he came back with different friends. When he didn't even spare them a glance. Because love was crueler than hate. If hate even existed. But Annabeth didn't think he changed for no reason. She suspected something was behind it. What happened to Percy in those four years? #1 in percabeth (8/25/21) #2 in annabethchase (9/4/21)
