Chapter 1 : Birthday boy
My name is perseus jackson , my friends call me percy . I am a 17 year old boy . 5 years ago , my life was normal { upto some point } till i came to know that i was a demigod and that too a son of poseidon . I had always asked my mother about my father but she always said that he was watching me grow and when the time comes i will know about him . Well i knew that i had something special to do with sea because whenever i went to the beach the fragnance of the sea calmed me and the water strenghtened me .I joined a camp for demigods like me called Camp Half Blood . It was kind of running smooth with all the quest and challenges . I gained more power as i grew . I could control water because it was my teritory . Last year i came to know about the prophecy of 16 which was not good at all . As i turned 16 , the olympus was nearly destroyed and gods nearly lost to Typhoon and i lost my not so good old friend and enemy Luke , who sacrificed himself to send kronos back to Tartarus . After few days i thought my life was going to be okay but the next thing i remeber was i was running in the woods with Lupa [ the wolf queen ] and learn't that the prohecy was not over yet , the next couple of weeks were a blur as both the greeks and romans combined to defeat the army of gaea and peace was restored . Today is my 17 th birthday and my mom arranged a small party for me and my friends . As i was standing at the balcony thinking about the things that happened to me , Annabeth called me '' hey percy what are you doing here , it's time for cake cutting '' ''i am coming '' i replied . i was about to blow out the candles when the door bell rang . I opened the door , suddenly a big figure sprang on me and huged me tightly . It was my half brother Tyson , who is a cyclops . ''happy birthday dear brother '' he said and released me from his grip . I was out of breath from his hug but was happy to see him . My mother had prepared an extra cake just for the big guy and he was happy with it .After the cake was cut my friends gave me presents , Annabeth gave me a heart locket with our photo in it and made me promise that i will never lose it . Tyson gave me a better version of the wrist watch shield , Jason and piper gave me a potrait of us fighting giants in olmypia last year ,Hazel and Frank gave me a birthday card with a message in latin [ i guess it said happy birthday ] . It was all going good and i thought maybe everything will be normal again .
