What the Stars Forgot

Summary:

Percy Jackson is no hero anymore.

After years of sacrifice, loss, and loyalty, he is betrayed by those he trusted most - abandoned by Olympus, by Camp Half-Blood, by Camp Jupiter, by the friends who once swore to fight by his side. With nothing left to tether him to the world he saved, Percy vanishes into the night, his name buried by time and silence.

But Chaos finds him.

For forty years, Percy serves in the shadows - reborn as a champion of Lady Chaos, far from the gods who broke him. His past becomes legend. His name, a ghost.

Then the gods call him back.

Bound to a reluctant oath, Percy is tasked with a new role: Guardian of Artemis's Hunt. But the moon - once a symbol of purity and divine grace - is no longer silent. It pulses with an ancient energy, cracked and bleeding silver light. Whispers echo beneath it. Visions surface. Names vanish from memory. Something is wrong.

As Percy navigates shifting loyalties, divine secrets, and a Hunt that doesn't want him, he's pulled deeper into a mystery the gods refuse to name - one that could unravel Olympus from within... and tear open the sky itself.

Chapter 1: Author's Note

Chapter Text

Hello, everybody!

I just wanted to get a couple things out of the way before we start the story. So, here's some housekeeping:

1: This is my first fan fiction. While I have written some short stories before, I am completely in the dark on the best way to write one of these. Therefore, I am saying that constructive criticism is welcome and appreciated. I even would like to see some jokes and some fun in the comments. HOWEVER, I will NOT tolerate any hate speech in the comments. PLEASE keep it away from my comment sections.

2: The standard disclaimer: I do not own any characters, ideas, or anything related to Percy Jackson. The only original idea in this story is the plot line. Everything else belongs to Uncle Rick.

3: While the Trials of Apollo are canon in this story, the death of Jason Grace is NOT CANON. I did not appreciate the death of Jason, and I am keeping him in my plot. Also, since Jason is still alive in this story, I am keeping Jiper. I love that ship, and I am NOT breaking them up.

4: Finally, I wanted you to be aware that while this is my story line and my idea, I had a little help from AI to polish up my writing. I am not the best writer, and I tend to go completely off-base when I write, so the AI is only there to ENHANCE what I had already written.

With all of that out of the way, I welcome you to the story. Join me as we figure out what the stars forgot.
