    published works were two short stories in the UTSA literary magazine.

  • 8/10/2019 Percy Jackson 5

    9/18

    Percy, and his friend Rachel drive to a ridge overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. There, Rachel reveals that

    her father is sending her to a finishing school and that she wants Percy to go on a vacation with her.

    Blackjack, Percy's Pegasus and Charles Beckendorf, a son of Hephaestus, interrupt by landing on the

    hood of Paul Blofis' Prius. Beckendorf then announces that it is time for Percy and himself to take out

    the Princess Andromeda, a cruise ship filled with monsters. Percy and Beckendorf sneak onto the ship

    and set Greek fire explosives in the engine room. Percy leaves the room to distract the monsters on the

    ship, telling Beckendorf to meet him at the air pad.

    Percy is confronted by Kronos. After being defeated, Beckendorf was revealed to have just been

    captured, but had tricked them by making it look like he was going towards and not away from the

    engine room. He then sacrifices his life so Percy could escape from the ship. Percy then passed out in

    the ocean from burns and getting touched by Kronos' scythe, which is rumored to be able to cut a

    person's soul away with just one swipe.

    Percy dreams as he drifts unconscious through the ocean. The vision took place on Mount Othrys

    during a conversation between Krios and Hyperion. In the vision, the two Titans talk of the their plans

    to destroy Mount Olympus. After the two are done talking, Percy hears Nico di Angelo's voice telling

    Percy to follow his plan. As Percy comes to, he realizes that he is in Poseidon's kingdom and is being

    tended to by his half-brother, Tyson. Tyson then leads Percy to Poseidon's throne room, where he meets

    Poseidon's wife, Amphitrite, and Triton, his other son. Poseidon then informs Percy that he is battling

    Oceanus, and that Percy must return to Camp Half-Blood to fulfill the rest of the "great prophecy."

    Returning to Camp-Half-Blood, Percy and Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena, retrieve the prophecy

    from the Oracle and bring it before the camp's war council. Percy reads the prophecy and realizes that

    regardless of the side he chose to fight for, he would die. Then Clarisse, angered because of not getting

    a chariot that the Apollo Cabin had claimed, decides that her cabin and Ares will not support the war.

    Percy, with the help of Chiron, then discovers that Typhon has escaped his prison, Mount St. Helens,

  • 8/10/2019 Percy Jackson 5

    10/18

    and is heading towards an unguarded Mount Olympus to destroy the gods' domain. Percy and the other

    counselors of the camp decide they need to concentrate on defending Olympus because all of the gods

    are busy battling Typhon. The night following the meeting, Percy dreams of Rachel. In his dream,

    Rachel looks over two photos she has recently drawn based upon dreams she's had. The first is a picture

    of Luke when he was nine years old and the second a picture of Mount Olympus surrounded by

    lightning and Kronos' army. The next day, Percy then reveals that Grover Underwood has disappeared

    without a trace and that his and Percy's empathy link is weakening. Percy also discovers that the Ares

    cabin wants the chariot that the Apollo cabin recovered during a raid led by the Ares cabin, and that

    they will refuse to fight unless they are given it.Needing a break, Percy chases his pet Mrs. OLeary

    and follows her to the clearing where the Lords of the Wild hold their meetings. There, Percy finds

    Nico, Leneus, one of the Council of Cloven Elders members, and Grover's girlfriend Juniper talking

    about Grover. Leneus initially denies to help Grover, but is then forced by Percy. When Nico and Percy

    are alone, Percy decides to carry out Nico's plan and they then travel together to find Luke's mother in

    order to discover Luke's past by traveling on Mrs. O'Leary, who, like all creatures of shadow, can

    shadow-travel.

    Percy and Nico arrive at Luke's mother's house in Westport, Connecticut and find that she is in a

    psychotic state. Ms. Castellan greets the two boys as if they were Luke when they arrive.. Percy

    discovers that Luke ran away in order to protect his mother. Also they learned that when he turned his

    soul over to the Titans, he required his mother's blessing. Having the information they came for, as they

    attempted to leave, Luke's mother suddenly has a vision of her son ruled by Kronos and cries out in

    horror. Disturbed, Percy and Nico run from the house to find that Mrs. O'Leary has been approached by

    the goddess Hestia. Hestia provides for the boys and then tells Percy that no matter what side he

    chooses, he must remember her because she is the last Olympian. She goes on to explain that while all

    the Olympians are gone, she is the only hope for Olympus and that all must remember her when they

    fight. Hestia then sends Percy and Nico to Percy's house where they are greeted by his mom and Paul,

  • 8/10/2019 Percy Jackson 5

    11/18

    who finally believes Percy's mother about his life as a half-blood. Percy and Nico tell her of their plan

    and she reluctantly gives Percy her blessing, agreeing that he will signal her if he survives the war.

    Ready to carry out the plan, Nico and Percy travel to Central Park to reach the Underworld via

    Shadow-travel.

    When Percy and Nico arrive at Central Park, Nico tells Percy they'll need music to enter the

    Underworld from that entrance. Suddenly, Percy feels Grover's presence and, using his empathy link to

    awake Grover out of a deep sleep, Grover falls out of a tree near Percy and Nico. He explains that he

    was spreading the news about Pan's death and recruiting fighters when he saw a strange man walking

    through Central Park, where everyone near the strange man was falling asleep. When Grover went to

    confront the man, he turned his powers on Grover. After Grover's story, Nico says that Grover had

    encountered Morpheus a minor god that can put people to sleep and that his presence meant that the

    invasion was coming sooner than it was expected. Grover then plays a song to open the gate to the

    Underworld before leaving to tell Juniper that he was alive. Traveling into the Underworld, Nico

    detours Percy towards the gate for the dead, but ultimately hands him over to the Furies, including

    Alecto, who was Mrs. Dodds in The Lightning Thief.

    When Percy realizes he's been tricked, he fought against Nico but is stopped by the Furies and has his

    sword thrown off , leaving him defenseless. Nico explains that his father had promised him information

    on his past if he turned in Percy. Upon arriving in Hades' throne room, Percy, Nico and Hades are

    joined by Persephone, and her mother Demeter. As a reward, Hades reveals that he sent Nico and his

    sister to the magical hotel they were abandoned at to protect them and so that they would never age

    until they left, and that the lawyer that collected them was Alecto (Mrs.Dodds). Hades promised that he

    planned to not help out in the fight for Olympus and then after the Titans took over, strike their

    weakened forces. He then sends Nico off and takes Percy captive.

  • 8/10/2019 Percy Jackson 5

    12/18

    Percy ends up having a nightmare and wakes up having Nico pinned to the floor of his cell. Nico then

    helps Percy escape to the River Styx on Mrs. O'Leary. When the two get there, Percy has a talk with

    Achilles before bathing in the River Styx to become nearly invincible (his only weakness is the small of

    his back). When Percy is done, he is attacked by Hades' minions and Hades himself. Percy escapes after

    defeating Hades and his minions using his new found strength (bathing in the Styx made him more

    powerful, faster, and stronger, among other things). As he leaves he tells Nico to stay and convince

    Hades to fight.

    Percy travels to the Empire State Building, meeting up with some other campers. Remembering that

    one of them could be a spy, he tells the group of his plan to get Zeus to defend Mount Olympus. They

    head to the 600th floor and find the throne room empty except for Hestia, who is still tending the fire.

    She sends him a vision of the day Luke and Thalia found Annabeth, the same day Luke gave her the

    knife she still uses, and when Luke meets his dad, Hermes, for the first time. Afterward, Hestia leaves

    when Hermes arrives, who relays a message from Athena to defend Manhattan by using Plan 23. To

    Percy, Athena says to ' remember the rivers' and also staying away from her daughter. Annabeth

    mentioned Lukein front of Hermes, Percy defends her. Hermes was about to crush Percy with his

    caduceus, but Martha and George stop him. The god of messengers departs with sadness and grief.

    They go outside when they find out that all the mortals in New York have fallen asleep because of

    Morpheus. Afterwards, Percy sends groups of campers to guard the bridges and tunnels of Manhattan

    from Kronos' army. As Kronos and Hecate use their magic powers to slow down time, Thalia and the

    Hunters of Artemis come back to guard the Lincoln Tunnel from the army. Percy and Annabeth fly on

    pegasi to help Apollo's campers on Williamsburg Bridge. They encounter and defeat many monsters.

    Percy soon encounters and fights the Minotaur again, as shown in The Lightning Thief. He then heads

    to the bridge to fight Kronos. As Percy realizes how much power he has he strikes Riptide into to the

    bridge that causes a force to make the bridge break. After that, Kronos disappears and the campers

    settle at their new headquarters. Some of the demigods help Annabeth with her wound which she had

  • 8/10/2019 Percy Jackson 5

    13/18

    gotten after she saved Percy's life by jumping in front of Ethan's blade which would have hit Percy's

    weak spot.

    Percy dreams about Maria di Angelo and Hades arguing about Nico and Bianca's safety (World War

    II). Hades wants to take them to either the Underworld, or to the desert where time stands still and

    Maria doesn't agree with Hades' idea. Zeus then makes the hotel explode, killing Maria di Angelo,

    because he is afraid of the Great Prophecy. Hades sends Alecto to take Nico and Bianca to the Lotus

    Hotel, where Zeus can't harm them. Percy then dreams about Rachel at the beach with her parents. She

    has a feeling that New York is being attacked by a monster and that Percy is in trouble. When she

    oversees this, she persuades her parents to leave the beach with her.

    Percy is awoken by Thalia, who told him that a Titan, Prometheus, was here to negotiate. The Titan

    soon stated that Olympus is destined to fall, and that he should surrender. When Percy refuses, he

    shows him more of Luke's past, mainly an argument between the young demigod and his father. Percy

    was moved by the vision, but remained adamant, so Prometheus gave him "Pandora's box," which was

    actually a pithos (jar), and told him that if was to open it and let "Hope" go that he would take that as a

    sign of surrender.

    Percy then sleeps again. When he woke up, he found out that Hyperion and his army are attacking at

    the Central park. The two battle it out on the lake, and Percy notes that Hyperion is weaker when he's

    wet. Percy, unknowingly, starts a mini-hurricane and douses Hyperion's flames repeatedly. Grover and

    his friends then successfully trap him inside a maple tree. Almost immediately, a Clazmonian Sow,

    descends wreaking havoc but they managed to defeat it. Arriving at the Empire State building, he saw

    that the campers were pushed back to the near doors by the monsters.

    After talking with Annabeth over Luke, Percy suddenly finds himself at Bobby Earl's party in the

    southern United States. There he finds Dionysus playing Pac-Man. Dionsyus tells him not to lose the

    Empire State Building, and asked him to make sure that his son Pollux didn't die he then sent Percy

  • 8/10/2019 Percy Jackson 5

    14/18

    back to New York. When Percy is back he hears a helicopter and realizes it's Rachel. He goes to save

    her, because the Pilot fell asleep, however Annabeth sneaked into the helicopter and landed it safely.

    Rachel then tells Percy her strange dreams. Percy is yet again tired, and hits the sack. He sees Kronos

    ordering Ethan and Prometheus to release the Drakon. He wakes and organizes his forces for battle. He

    and Annabeth go fight the Drakon despite the fact that only a child of Ares may kill it. However they're

    surprised when they see Clarisse leading her cabin into battle. However, after "Clarisse" falls from her

    chariot, they knew something was wrong. The real Clarisse arrived and they realized the fallen one was

    Silena Beauregard. Silena soon passed away, after revealing that she was the spy. She was the spy due

    to the fact that Luke blackmailed her into saying that she will be saving many lives. Clarisse, out of

    rage, kills the Drakon.

    After Clarisse defeated the Drakon, Thalia suggested that Percy and Annabeth should go to Olympus to

    help set up the final defenses. On their way to the elevator, they saw Grover kneeling over Leneus, who

    was sacrificed in the battle. While they were on Olympus, they helped to cheer up the wounded. When

    they reached the palace, they saw Rachel holding Pandora's pithos and Annabeth and Grover went to

    find more Greek Fire and Hephaestus traps. After that, Percy and Rachel sat next to Hestia and started

    talking to her. Percy gives Pandora's jar to Hestia for safe-keeping so that he would not have the urge to

    give up. Annabeth and Grover reluctantly helps Percy to Poseidon's throne so that he could get his

    father's attention. Percy tells Poseidon of his plan to save Olympus and tells him that Kronos sent

    Oceanus to attack him because he knew Poseidon could defeat Typhon. Percy tells him to abandon his

    palace to help defeat Typhon. When Percy finally convinced Poseidon, Thalia came into the throne

    room and informed Percy that Kronos is leading the army and he had to get down there fast.

    During the attack, Kronos makes his way up to Olympus, where he starts to destroy it. Percy,

    Annabeth, Grover, and Thalia quickly follow, but Thalia becomes pinned down when a falling statue of

    Hera, aimed at Annabeth lands on Thalia's leg. She is still alive and tells everyone to go on without her.

    In the throne room, Percy takes on Ethan Nakamura, and is able to convince him to help him fight

  • 8/10/2019 Percy Jackson 5

    15/18

    Kronos. After trying to stab Kronos, Ethan is stopped and Kronos tosses Ethan off Olympus into the

    air, causing him to crash into the ground below. Annabeth attempts to awaken Luke inside his body by

    calling out to him. Luke is able to flash back to them, telling them that Kronos is taking over his body

    and will soon be unstoppable. Kronos takes back power and hurls Annabeth across the room. When

    Annabeth reminds Luke of the promise he made when she was seven about how he would never let

    anything happen to her, he manages to regain control of his body, but Kronos begins to fight back. He

    tells Percy to quickly hand him Annabeth's knife before Kronos takes over his body. Percy, reluctantly

    gives Luke the blade knowing that if he attacked himself, Kronos would take control and defend

    himself. Luke stabs himself in his Achilles heel, actually on his side under his arm and commits

    suicide, thus banishing Kronos and scattering him.

    When the Olympians arrive back at Olympus, they reward the heroes for saving Olympus. They

    promote Tyson to be General of the Cyclopes, and present him with the most finely made club, which

    he calls "stick". They allow Annabeth to be the official architect for the new Olympus. They give

    Grover the empty seat in the Council of Cloven Elders and he passes out. Also, all the victims of the

    war would achieve Elysium. Lastly, they offer Percy immortality, but after much thinking, Percy turns

    them down, asking them for a different gift: to claim all their half-blood children by their thirteenth

    birthday, to honor all minor gods (such as Nemesis, Iris, Nike, etc.) and the gods to give Hades and all

    other minor gods a cabin at Camp Half-Blood. He also releases the innocent people whom did nothing

    wrong (like Calypso). Because Percy made them swear on the River Styx, they must oblige to his wish.

    All the gods then congratulate him.

    When they went back to the camp, Percy witnessed how Rachel accept the offer of being an oracle

    despite of his pleading that she may get hurt in the process if she did not qualify. But in the end, Rachel

    managed to win the process, thus revealing a new prophecy that will affect the next volume of the

    series ( The Heroes of Olympus). At the end of the book, everyone get back to their normal lives,

    Rachel flies to Clarion Academy, Grover convincing more satyrs to guard the nature, campers who

    A single choice shall end his days,

    Olympus to preserve or raze.
