Line 43:
Percy arrives back at the school and hears Grover and Mr. Brunner talking about his life being in danger and becomes very suspicious. At the bus stop, Grover sees that the three Fates are looking at Percy while knitting giant socks. Soon after, the [[Fates]] snip the string of life. Later, he goes home on his own at the end of the school year, even though Grover asked him to wait for him at the bus stop. He arrives home to his horrible step-dad [[Gabe Ugliano]] and his friends playing poker. Gabe immediately demands money for his poker game and although Percy denies he has any, Gabe deduces that he has change from the cab drive and forces it from him. Percy's mother arrives soon afterward and tells him that they can go to his favorite beach in [[Montauk]] for the whole weekend. Percy, happy that finally something good has happened, packs his things and leaves, but not before seeing Gabe get hit in the butt by the door when he does a weird hand gesture he saw [[Grover Underwood|Grover]] use earlier.

That night at Montauk, after Percy has a vivid dream, Percy and his mother are shocked to see Grover outside their cabin, without pants (which Percy recommends not to see that) coming to him and his mom, telling them to leave. Percy was confused at his friend's appearance, as he was a goat from the waist down and revealed himself to be a [[satyr]]. Nevertheless, his mother took them both in Gabe's prized possession, a 1978 Camaro and began driving at daring speeds through a blinding hurricane and it was blasted off the road by a bolt of lightning. As Grover, Percy, and his mom tried to get out, they saw the [[Minotaur]], a half man, half bull monster, who had been chasing them. The three of them managed to dodge it by following Ms. Jackson's advice to jump out of the way at the last second, but Grover was too slow and the Minotaur injured him, but got distracted by Percy's mother. The Minotaur forgot Grover, grabbed Percy's mom by her neck, and she disappeared in a golden flash of light. Percy, in a surge of new power and anger, managed to defeat the Minotaur by breaking off its [[Minotaur's horn|horn]] and stabbing the Minotaur in the chest. Percy dragged the unconscious Grover past a hill, and then passed out when he reached the porch of a [[The Big House|house]]. He was cared for in the infirmary by Annabeth Chase, waking up three days later. He learned that he was at [[Camp Half-Blood]], a place where people were trained to survive against monsters.

He was cared for in the infirmary by [[Annabeth Chase]], waking up three days later. He learned that he was at [[Camp Half-Blood]], a place where people were trained to survive against monsters.
Percy learned that the director of the camp was the Greek wine god, [[Dionysus]], who was very unpleasant and moody, and Mr. Brunner, former Latin teacher from Yancy Academy, was actually the hero-training [[centaur]] (half human, half stallion), [[Chiron]]. Shown around camp by Annabeth, his new friend and head counselor of the [[Athena's Cabin|Athena Cabin]], he found out that all the campers were [[demigods]], also known as half-bloods. He himself was a demigod, but no one knew his divine father. After being shown around the camp, he currently resided in the [[Hermes]] [[Hermes' cabin|cabin]], whose head counselor was [[Luke Castellan]]. Luke befriended Percy and treated him with respect. Afterwards, Percy encountered [[Clarisse La Rue]], counselor of the [[Ares' cabin]], who performed the "initiation ceremony", which was sticking Percy's head in the girl's bathroom toilet. Her plan backfires when Percy shot water out of the toilet to blast back at Clarisse and her buddies. This officially began their rivalry. Later in a game of [[Capture the Flag]], Percy defeated Clarisse and three others single-handed when he touched the creek, which healed his wounds from the fight and gave him a sudden burst of adrenaline. After Capture the Flag, a [[hellhound]] summoned from the [[Fields of Punishment]], came out of the forest and attacked him. Percy's injury from the hellhound heals by touching the water; then suddenly, [[Claiming|a holographic trident]] floated above Percy's head, which told everyone that Percy was the son of [[Poseidon]], explaining his powers over water. As the monster was not from the forest, it meant that someone within camp had summoned it because nothing, including weather, could enter the camp's magic boundaries without permission.

Line 210:
Through deaths and betrayals, the demigods stand victorious. Percy is offered the gift of becoming a god, but declines due to his feelings for Annabeth Chase. He remembers how he felt when Annabeth might have become a Hunter of Artemis and notices Annabeth looks about the same way that he did then. Because of this, he declines their offer in favor of a request. He requests that the gods claim their children by the age of thirteen and that Camp Half-Blood construct cabins for Hades and the minor gods so their children have a place at camp. When he comes back to Camp Half-Blood, he finally expresses his feelings for Annabeth and they kiss twice, the first time in Camp Half-Blood's mess hall, and the second time being underwater, due to which a group of eavesdroppers toss them into the lake, the latter which he describes as 'pretty much the best underwater kiss of all time.' At the very end of the book, he and Annabeth share a moment of bliss as they race toward the road down [[Half-Blood Hill]] back into the mortal world, not looking back at [[Camp Half-Blood]] for once.
