The Heroes of Olympus Article: The Wrong Seventh

posted by partypony

I just want to write this artikel so I can spread this message, 'kay?

Percy is NOT one of the seven of the prophecy.

There. I zei it. For the quadrillionth time.

It's not that I don't want him to be one of them (in fact, I DO want him to be one of the seven), but RR zei that Percy will play a major role in the series, but he won't be a central character. He also won't be one of the seven. I believe this. Percy has already fulfilled his prophecy in the vorige series, so it would be kind of repetitive of RR to make Percy as a child of the prophecy. Again. I read an artikel that the seven can be demigods that have unique/rare powers of position.

For example:
Leo- brand user
Piper- Charm speaker (Yeah, Drew`s a charm speaker too, but maybe Piper`s just meer powerful)

Controlling water is a common power for children of Poseidon. Percy`s just powerful because he`s the only existing son of the sea god that we know of. Ok, I know Jason`s powers are probably common among children of Jupiter/Zeus, but maybe what makes him unique is that he`s the leader of the Roman Camp (CSS). Yes, Percy is a leader of Camp Half-Blood too, but, as I said, he`d already done his part in the first Great Prophecy.
`
The Son of Neptune`. Alot of people assumes that meant Percy, but what is there`s really a real son of Neptune? Not just any son of Neptune, but one that has unique powers. That could mean he/she would be one of the seven.

So yeah, I don`t think Percy`s one of the seven. I can`t prove this. I forgot which site I got it from, but I can guarantee u it`s reliable. And if Percy is one of the seven, well... I stand corrected. But I doubt it.

Calypso_ I REALLY REALLY hope your wrong, no offense, but I adore Percy and if he isn't part of the prophecy I will be very mad/disappointed.

Riptide While I also thought Percy wasn't going to be one of the seven at first once I re-read the book again I started catching things I didn't before when I read it first time around. First off the requirement to be one of the seven is that you have to be powerful, not unique just powerful as Hera said that she wanted to gather the most powerful half-bloods of the current times, how can you NOT say that Percy isn't one? mark of Achilles plus he is the favorite son of Poseidon one of the big three? yea not powerful at all... oh wait. Also Rick said that he wanted to help bring most of the original characters stories to a close but many will still be playing a very important role in the series. Rick has NOT said that Percy wont be one of the seven he has stated he will play an important role and hasn't given us any specifics. It is likely Percy will be one of the seven honestly because he is Percy, he is the camp half blood lead Demi-god Jason's counter part and as such he will be one of them. WE JUST HAVEN'T SEEN HIM YET. Don't make assumptions just yet, I haven't completely said in any of this that he will be just that he will likely be one of the seven. You never know, maybe Percy wont be one of the seven but personally I would like him to be. and if you do find that place where you got this info please tell us, I would like to know myself.

partypony K, i dont know where i got it from, since the website just sort of disappeared off the face of the earth, but I can guarantee he isn't one of the seven. yeah, i know its sad, and i couldnt believe it at first, but i made my peace now. i accpet it. and yes, hera said the most powerful, blah blah blah, but i still think its not him. maybe you people dont wanna let him go (no offence). i understand. if i have to, i'll bet a million $ for my opinion. not tht i have a million dollars of course.

kidofhades97 Does anybody remember how in the end of The Last Olympian, Poseidon says, "Now I can claim all your other brothers and sisters", (or something along those lines) and Percy didn't know whether or not Poseidon was joking or what? I believe there is an actual son of NEPTUNE... though, this is just my opinion.

partypony ^yeah, i dont think thats it. i believe it said something like, "now i can send you brothers and sisters". maybe he meant he's gonna.. u know... "make" him some... hehe.

kokishka No offense to all those Percy-lovers(not that thats a [i]bad[/i] thing, 'cause I love him too) but I agree with partypony. Percy's played too big a role to be involved in another Great Prophecy. But it would still be awesome if he was in another prophecy, but that actually might suck for him.

partypony yeah, he just wants a semi-normal demigod life. without being the subject of a terrible prophecy that involves suffering, pain, and the end of the world.

halfblood963 yeah thats true but what unigue powers could a child of poseidon. maybe they could control the earth better than percy because he doesnt show he can make earthquakes. or they can use water from with in to help them travel like a hurrican and fly like guiding the water and jet power your self up i guess.

Perseus54321 my opinion, Percy will be one of the seven. For several reasons, 1, he's got the Achilles stuff,2,Annabeth said she would go with Jason, Leo and Piper on the Argo II, you can't have Annabeth without Percy, it's one of the main rules of the universe, 3, people would hate it if RR didn't have Percy in it, if RR wants more readers, he probably would put Percy in

losthero5 kinda late to say that he isnt the son of neptune. hera said he was in the chapter rick read.

KatieK101 Sorry but my opinion? Percy is one of the seven. Intill I see this website then I will not believe that he not one of the seven. Rick isn't going to do something stupid just for a surprise if it makes to many fans mad.

KatieK101 Hey, once I read this I went to see if I could find the website and I found this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mark_of_Athena#The_Mark_of_Athena Go down and read about the main people. While talking about Percy it says: Part Of The Second Great Prophecy. Yes I know, this may or may NOT be true and If I am wrong then I stand corrected, but you got your backup from a website and so did I. Hopefully Percy will be part

leo_di_agelo funny how pery actually turned out to be one of the 7

Hmm...............................
Lots of dots? Yeah.

As u may of may not know, I'm working on three fanfictions right now for Greek Myths that have Percy in them.
1) The Moon Prophecy
2) The Trap Door
3) Unknown (I haven't announced its name yet.)

But, I have to finish TMP (The Moon Prophecy) before writing a new chapter for TTD. Thing is, I can't get anywhere with it. I think I'm going to leave it at the point it's at, because TTD has potential.
TTD (The Trap Door) is about real and made up people. It's based on people who want to be demigods. But here's the catch: the person who's narrorating...

A picture I made and put on a flair pin on facebook with the release date.

Hi everybody! I've missed you! I'd be on more, but I have figure skating and if I want to make it the Olympics one day, I have to work really hard. So, yeah...moving on...
DO u KNOW WHAT TODAY IS??? No, really, do you?
You don't?
It's October 11, 2010. Now, here's an easy one:
What is tomorrow?
...
You're right! (Wow, I really felt like Dora the Explorer for a seconde there...)
October 12th!
Now, I just got done reading another amazing artikel from HecateA, who was talking about the camps! Yep, the two camps! But, near the end, she zei something about peoples heads blowing up from the wait.
Less than...

There's two of them?

posted by HecateA

^ Cue eyes lighting up!

But no.

We are talking about 2 camp Half-Bloods. Two training camps for demigods, two absolutely amazing places, two of them!

Sadly, the seconde one probably wouldn't mean anything good for our gang...

1. This camp likes Ceasar Salad!

Theory numbah 1 for camp numbah 2 is that this is a camp for little Romans to run around in. For meer info on the Roman gods butting in (Grr...) check out the artikel link.

So this would be it. This would be where Jason comes from. And I have this rivalery-idea between camps. And since the Romans seem meer extreme, so are their reactions....

Attention to all Zeus supporters

posted by HecateA

Thank u for your attention :)

I'm getting kind of ticked off repeating the same anti Jason-is-a-son-of-Zeus arguments all over the spot, so from now on, I'll just direct people to this article.

Why do people think he's a son of Zeus?
1) He flies
2) He survived a lightning strike strong enough to kill 20 men
3) Jason's sword
4) He's supposed to be "important"

Now those four things have very reasonable and scientific explanations. Okay, maybe not, but they are explanations.

1) OMGs, the kid flies!
Flying in Greek mythology isn't that odd. Horses do it, heroes do it, gods do it, sacred animals...

Immortal linken Part Ten

posted by goddessoflife

CHAPTER TEN

Eve lunged at me. But Percy blocked me with his sword as I summoned mine.
"Carter!" I said, "Janie, get out your swords already!"
Carter nodded, Janie was still.
Eve had back up though. Great. Just Great.
We were all busy, but I ran right at her. She turned and slashed her sword across my face. I screached in pain and fell backwards.
"Shows you," she muttered.
Percy looked at me for about a second, but he had to turn back. Though he couldn't get hurt...
I hadn't noticed until now, but Eve's little "army" were just dead dudes. Within minutes, they were dead...again...
Percy looked at me....

CHAPTER FIVE

I sat on my new bunk. I had the top. I shared this cabine with 16 other girls. Perfect.
Perfume makes me sneeze. What a joy! Now I'm stuck with a bunch of fruit-flavored siblings I really didn't want.
Aphrodite.
Suprised?
Yeah, I thought so.
"Emma? u are going to need a makeover."
First things first:
WHAT THE HECK?!? So I've been claimed door the first one Conner mentioned...but I'm nothing like these girls. I don't wear a lot of makeup. of stuff like that. Truthfully, I thought I was going to die.
"Why?"
"You look like the living dead! Duh!" Lola sighed. "You don't like this stuff, do you?...
