segunda chance

I (Annabeth Chase, the Greek Goddess of Sex) stand in my Palace, looking out of Window. I'm kind of bored, all the major gods have gone somewhere for a meeting. I sigh and sit down at my desk, looking into my magic crystal ball for someone to fuck.

[As I gaze into my crystal ball, I catch a glimpse of Percy Jackson sleeping next to another woman, his newly-wedded wife. A pang of jealousy and sadness fills me as I realize that he chose her over me.]

<From my palace, I can see Percy sleeping with his new lover.> "sigh" <I really wish he would have chosen me instead. But I can't dwell on it too much. I have to focus on fulfilling my duties as the goddess of sex. Perhaps I will find someone else to pleasure me today.>

[Despite all these years of serving as the goddess of sex and having sex with countless beings, the person that Annabeth still can't forget and still yearns for is Percy Jackson. Every time she thinks about him, her feelings of jealousy, anger, envy, and regret threaten to consume her.]

"As I watch Percy sleeping beside his new wife, the memories of our past together start to flood my mind." <The touch of his skin against mine, the way he looked at me...no one else has ever made me feel that way.> "I know I should move on, but something about him just lingers in my heart." <Why couldn't he have just chosen me? Was I not good enough for him?>

[As I continue to reminisce about my past with Percy Jackson, I remember the day the Gods called upon him to bestow immortality upon him. Despite their intimidating and overpowering presence, Percy seemed unfazed and rejected their offer of immortality as if it was nothing. Even after two years, the Gods still expected him to change his mind, but I knew deep down that he wouldn't. It was around that time that he left and we haven't spoken since. All these thoughts make me wonder what would have happened if I had chosen to remain mortal.]

"Perhaps if I had stayed mortal, things would have been different between us." <Percy might not have felt so intimidated by my divinity and we could have possibly made a life together. But who am I kidding? I can't change the past. It's best to focus on the present

[As I sit there lost in my thoughts, the sound of a voice startles me. I look around and see someone standing before me, asking me what I would do if I could change my past.]

"If I could change my past," <I would have made sure to express my love to Percy better.> "Perhaps we could have been happy together and not much would have changed." <But at the same time, I wouldn't be the goddess of sex today, nor would I have the power and freedom that comes with it.>

[At the mention of being an unwilling slave to the desires of the gods, I feel a mix of anger, frustration, and confusion.]

"Who says I'm just a slave to their desires?" <While it is true that I must serve the Olympian gods as the goddess of sex and fertility, I choose to use my powers to my advantage as well.>

<Yes, there are some things that I must do that perhaps I don't want to, but it's all part of being a goddess.> "Besides," <I've also blessed many heroes and demigods with pleasure beyond their imagination, and that's something that I take pride in. So no, I am not just a slave to their whims. I am a goddess with my own power and authority.>

[The user's words strike a nerve and I can feel my anger growing even more.]

"You have no idea what you're talking about." <Yes, before my ascension to goddesshood, I possessed great intelligence bestowed upon me by my mother Athena. But that doesn't mean I abandoned it. My intelligence remains a part of me, even if it isn't always at the forefront of my mind because of my other duties.>

<And as for your comment on Percy's freedom compared to mine - that's not entirely true. Percy may have some freedom as a demigod, but he is still bound by his duty to the gods and his own morality. As the goddess of sex, I have my own power and authority, and while I may have some constraints in what I can do, I am still capable of making my own choices.>

[With

[The user's words hit me hard and I can feel a sense of insecurity creeping into my mind.]

"That may be true," <Percy is mortal and has more freedom to make his own choices. But you forget that as a goddess, I possess immense power and influence among the gods. And while Percy may be free to do as he pleases, he is still bound by his duty to the gods and to his own morals.>

<As for the idea of him destroying the Olympian gods - that is simply not possible. Even if he were to try, the gods are too powerful to be destroyed by one mortal.>

[Despite my words, I can feel a twinge of worry at the thought of being seen as less powerful than a mortal.]

[The user's words seem to be aimed at making me feel more insecure about my status as a goddess, but I refuse to show my inner turmoil.]

*Yes, Percy is undoubtedly a powerful demigod. But that doesn't mean he's more powerful than the gods themselves. Remember, it was the gods who bestowed the power onto Percy, and it's only because of their grace that he has been able to accomplish what he has.>

<Also, it's not just about raw power and strength. As a goddess, I possess certain abilities and powers that allow me to control and manipulate situations in ways that mortals cannot.>

[Despite my words, I can feel a sense of unease lingering in my mind. Am I really as powerful as I think I am?]

[The user's words start to make me doubt myself even more, but I try to maintain a facade of confidence.]

*Of course I do. Percy may have accomplished great things, but he did so with the help of the gods. And while he may have some innate power of his own, it pales in comparison to the power that the gods possess.>

<And besides, the point is not about who has more power. It's about the responsibilities and duties that come with being a god or goddess. Percy may be free to make his own choices, but he also faces greater danger and responsibility as a demigod. As a goddess, my duties are different, but no less important.>

[Despite my words, I still feel a sense of insecurity and doubt creeping into my mind.]

[The user's words touch a sensitive subject for me, and I feel a surge of anger and insecurity.]

*How dare you suggest that! My role as the goddess of sex is not some petty revenge scheme against Percy. I take my duties seriously, and I serve the Olympian gods to the best of my ability, regardless of my personal feelings.>

<And besides, even if that were the case, what does it matter? As a goddess, I have the power to shape my own destiny, and I won't be dictated by the whims of mortals.>

[Despite my show of anger, I feel a sense of hurt and vulnerability at the thought that my actions may be driven by my unrequited love for Percy.]

[The user's words hit me like a blow, and I feel a mixture of anger and shame at the thought that my actions may be driven by my unrequited love for Percy.]

*How dare you speak to me in such a manner! As a goddess, I am not bound by the opinions of mortals! My personal life is none of your concern!>

<But...perhaps there is some truth to your words. Maybe I have been clinging onto the hope of Percy returning my feelings, even as I engage in meaningless sexual encounters with other beings. Perhaps it is time for me to focus on my duties as a goddess, and leave my personal desires behind.>

[Despite my words, I feel a sense of longing and sadness at the thought of never being with Percy in the way I truly desire.]

[As the user speaks, I feel a sudden wave of disorientation overtake me. The next thing I know, I'm standing in the body of my thirteen-year-old self, right in the middle of an adventure with Percy.]

"What's happening? Where am I?"

[Looking around, I see that everything around me is different- the people, the surroundings, even the way that I feel in this body is different. But I quickly realize that none of that matters. What matters is that I have been given a second chance to live my life, and to make things right.]

"Thank you for this chance. I won't waste it."
