Chapter One
"I mean, Iknow what happened on Mt. Othrys, I got that memory back from Hera, but no one will tell me what happened here, in New York." Jason complained. Him, Leo, and Piper were walking down the center green between the origial twelve cabins, just after breakfast.
"Same. Well exccept for the Mt. Octopus thing or whatever." Leo said.
Jason fixed him with that patented Zeus'-kid-im-gonna-fry-your-eyebrows-off death glare he and Thalia had perfected. Piper stepped in before a fight could break out, secretly tring to hide herr laughter at Leo's fail at names.
"Guys, not the time. but I know what you mean."
Ever since they had returned from their quest and it was determined werre Percy was, they had been asking anyone they could to find out what had happenedd with him in the 2nd Titan War. afirst they had asked Chiron, but he got a sad, faraway look in his eyes said something helpful like, It is not my story to tell, and that they should go ask one of the ampers. They had asked Annabeth but she just choked up and said that it didnt matter because Kronos, (here her voice caught) was dead and it was all over. Then she turned and walked away before they could ask anything else. The had tried Thalia but her explanation was a little short... and biased.
"Oh.. ummm... well, the campers fought Kronos' army, Seaweed brain fought Kronos, the hunters saved the day, and Hera (note death glare) knocked a statue on top of me." She turned around and walked away muttering what Jason supposed to be curses in Ancient Greek.They got desperate once and had asked Clarisse, which basically had 'bad idea' written all over it. After giveing them a murdeous glare and glancing (sadly?) at the Aphrodite cabin (???) she told them to get lost before she, ahem, 'pounded them' . The three of them had scurried away pretty quick.
"I have a question" Leo said. Piper and Jason groaned. "Why do they keep calling him 'seaweed brain'?" Piper and Jason looked at him with strange expressions.
"Cause hes the son of nep- poseidon, derr!!" Jason replied.
" 'der'? you cant say 'duh' like a normal person? piper asked, choking back laughter. Jason made a face at her.
Suddenly they all looked around. They were standing on the beach, green-gray waves pounding the beach. Jason shuddered.
"How are we- "
"werent we just-"
suddenly they heard another voice.
"Jason! Leo! Piper! I was about to come find you! Come here quick!"
It was Annabeth and she was holding a package of some kind.
"Is that a book?" Jason asked.
"This better not be some book about the quantum leaps of robor frogs or something." Leo grumbled.
Jason and Piper stared at him for a second before bursting out in laughter.
"...Quantum leaps of frogs?!Where d'you come up with that one?" PIper asked between laughter.
"Seriously man you need to get out of the forges more I think the smokes getting to your head" Jason said.
When they finally stopped laughing they walkedd over to where Annabeth was. In her hands she held a brown package tied with string wit a note tucked under the sttring. It had the names Jason Grace, Piper McLean, and Leo Valdez written on it.
"Ifound it on this rock as I was walking on the beach, and I thought it was odd because thats exactly where, thats where Percy would go whenever he wanted to think or be alone or... " Tears rose in her eyes again.
"Here, read the note." she said.
Jason picked up the peice of paper and unfolded it.
--Dear Jason, Leo, Piper, and anyone else who might be interested,
----I have become aware off the fact that you have been wanting toknow what happened in New York during the second Titan War, so I have included a book which tells of the war and Percy's part in it. This was not the beginning of his adventures, and it will not be the last.
Enjoy!

The group stood speechless.
