Camp half-blood
Percy, Grover, Chiron, Mr D, Annabeth, Luke, all campers, Satyrs Naiads, Dryads, Clarisse
Percy is sitting on a chair, on a porch
Percy mutters in his sleep and twitches. Camera zooms into his eye and 你 see his dream. He is in a room full of black rocks and mist
Kronos (heard not seen) –Give me it. Give me it.
Percy –What?
Kronos –GIVE ME IT. GIVE ME IT.
Grover (voice) –Percy!
Camera zooms out, Percy wakes up, Grover is standing besides him, holding a shoebox.
Percy (looks at Grover) –You’re still a goat?
Grover –Half a goat, a Satyr. Welcome to Camp Half-Blood.
Percy –Camp Half..? My mom! My mom, is she really… (Grover nods)
Grover –Sorry Percy. I’m very sorry. Here (takes the Minotaur horn out of the shoebox and gives it to him) –I thought I’d at least give 你 this. I went back to the 爬坡道, 小山 and get it.
Percy –So it wasn’t just a dream? The car ride, the Minotaur, nothing?
Grover –No. Including that little part about 你 being the son of a Greek god.
Percy –Who?
Grover –We didn’t get that far in the conversation. We’ll wait until he sends 你 a sign. Anyway, 你 better finish that. (He points to a glass of 苹果 果汁 下一个 to Percy. Percy picks it up and drinks)
Grover –What does it taste like?
Percy – My… My mom’s 浓情巧克力 chip cookies. Liquid form. What is that?
Grover –Ambrosia. The drink of the gods. Demigods drink it to get better. Too much of it will make 你 burst into flames. Anyways, come with me.
Percy –where?
Grover –You need to meet Mr D. and Chiron.
Percy –Mr Who?
Grover –Mr D. And be really nice around him. He’s in a bad mood today. (they get up and go in the house. Mr D and Chiron are sitting at the table. Annabeth is standing 下一个 to Chiron, talking to him)
Percy –Mr Brunner? (Chiron turns around)
Chiron –Percy! Glad to see you. Great, now we have four for pinochle!
Percy –Mr Brunner, what are 你 doing here?
Chiron –I’m afraid Mr Brunner is a pseudonym. From now on, you’ll have to call me Chiron. And I work here. I’ve been teaching here for nearly 3 millenias.
Percy –3 millenias… Teaching what?
Chiron –Various things. Archery, sword play, Ancient Greek, mythology, things like that. Percy let me introduce 你 to Mr D.
Mr D –Hum?
Chiron –This is Perseus Jackson. The new boy. Annabeth, go tell Luke about the new camper in his cabin. We’ll resume our conversation later.
Annabeth –You got it Chiron. (She leaves)
Percy –Mr… Chiron, I’m confused.
Mr D –Not Athena’s.
Chiron –Percy lives with his mother Mr D, whom he just lost, don’t be so hard on him. Percy, 你 are at camp Half-blood, training facility for demigods. Grover has told me 你 know 更多 或者 less about demigods and the gods themselves?
Percy –Umm… Sort-of.
Grover –He knows they exist!
Chiron –Hush my dear satyr. Percy, the Greek gods, the myths I taught 你 in class, it’s all true. They travel with Western Civilisation Percy. You’ve probably heard of it. It is not just an expression. A life-force, that travels along with human invention and power. Where the flame is strongest, the gods are, so presently, in America. And you, my boy, are the child of a god. Hephaestus, Apollo, Ares 或者 Hermes, not me thought. (Percy squints)
Percy –You’re Dionysus, the wine god aren’t you? (Thunder)
Mr D –Yes and if I were 你 I wouldn’t bounce names like that around. Names have power Perry,
Percy –Percy
Mr D – Pierre. Never forget that.
Percy –I…
Mr D –Forget pinochle Chiron, I’ve had enough of this boy. Grover come with me, we must discuss your fate with the council. (He gets up and leaves with a very nervous Grover)
Chiron – You’ll have to excuse Mr D, he doesn’t like this punishment.
Percy –Punishment?
Chiron –Yes. Zeus banned him from Olympus for chasing an off-limits wood nymph. 100 years staying at this camp as director. He likes nor demigods, nor earth, nor watching over the council.
Percy – Council?
Chiron –Oh yes, the Council of Cloven Elders. They rule over the satyrs, like Grover and the others.
Percy –Ah. But wait, Mr B –I mean Chiron, you’re missing 3 major gods. Poseidon, Zeus and Hades. They don’t have any demigod children?
Chiron – There is a… a prophecy. The 下一个 child of any of the three gods 你 just listed, the Big 3, might destroy Olympus, therefore ending the reign of the gods. They have made an oath not to have anymore children. But that, is very out of subject, the best way to explain my world –your world, is to 显示 you.
He gets up, exposing his white stallion half, to a surprised Percy.
Percy –You, your, horse…
Chiron –Your sense of observation, Percy, is amazing. 你 must remember that Chiron was the centaur teacher of Jason; I have taught 你 that haven’t I? (Percy nodds) Follow me, now.

Change of scene. Chiron and Percy are standing in the middle of the U of cabins. Campers are walking around wearing either armour 或者 summer clothing, always 橙子, 橙色 T-shirts. Scabbards are at their sides and spears in their hands
Chiron – Over there there’s the 草莓 patch (points towards the 草莓 patch), where we get the money to keep the camp running from, the 独木舟 lake is there (points to the 独木舟 lake), dinning pavilion, where we eat (points again) and the big house, where Mr D and myself stay (points). And here, are the cabins. One for each Olympian god. 你 stay in the 舱, 小木屋 of your parent.
Percy –Where do I stay then?
Chiron –You stay at the 舱, 小木屋 whose patron guides travelers and strangers. Herme’s cabin. (Annabeth appears in front of them, taking off her invisibility cap, Percy jumps)
Annabeth –Chiron, there’s another drachma-theft at Hermes, and Travis Stoll is fighting sword-on-spear with Chris Rodriguez, and Luke’s not there right now.
Chiron –Oh dear, how bad is it?
Annabeth –It’s ugly. (Chiron gallops off)
Percy - That was cool with the hat. (Motions to his head, taking an invisible 帽 on and off)
Annabeth –Err, thanks. Gift from mom. Got it for my birthday this year.
Percy –Who’s your mom?
Annabeth (pointing towards her cabin) –Athena. Goddess of knowledge and wisdom.
Percy –Cool. So what’s a drachma?
Annabeth –The currency of Mount Olympus. Ancient Greek money. Most campers have some. Except Hermes cabin, they steal it from each other. Children of the god of thieves, what do 你 expect?
Percy –Children of the… Would they steal from me?
Annabeth –Probably. 你 better prey 你 get out of there quick. Find your father fast.
Percy –Don’t the gods claim 你 as soon as they realise you’re here?
Annabeth –No. Not always. They’re busy and sometimes they just… Don’t care. Some kids have been in the Hermes 舱, 小木屋 for a few years.
Percy –Really? That’s…
Clarisse (voice) –Well, well, what have we here? (They turn to face Clarisse and her two sidekicks)
Annabeth –Go away Clarisse.
Clarisse –Stay out of this wise girl. 你 know I like making the new kids feel welcome.
Annabeth –Go away boar-head!
Clarisse – I will crush 你 at capture the flag tomorrow! In the meantime… (She grabs Percy 由 the arm and drags him to the girls bathroom, Annabeth running behind)
Percy –Hey, what are you, no, common! Le’go! (Struggling to get off Clarisse’s grip) (Clarisse goes in a stall and tries to push Percy’s head in the toilet.)
Percy –Let go, let go, let GO! (Water sprays out of the toilet and showers and spray Clarisse, Annabeth and the two other girls. Everyone but Percy is drenched. Clarisse lets go and Annabeth and him run out of the bathroom)
Annabeth –How did 你 do that? With the water?
Percy –I didn’t do…
Clarisse –You are DEAD Jackson, 你 hear me? (Camera turns to door where Clarisse is standing, her two sidekicks holding her back) DEAD! (back to Percy and Annabeth)
Annabeth –You’re on my team for capture the flag.
Percy –What?
Annabeth –Never mind, Chiron’s back. (Chiron walks in besides them).
Chiron –Common Percy, I’ll introduce 你 to Luke. (Annabeth blushes) Annabeth why are 你 wet?
Annabeth –Umm, tell 你 later. I’ve got to go change before supper. Later Percy. Chiron. (She puts her 帽 back on)
Percy –Did she leave?
Chiron –Presumably. Come. (Camera over the entrance of Herme’s cabin. Door creeks open and Percy steps in. Heads pop up, camera behind Percy)
Connor –New kid!
Luke –Connor, do not touch that kid’s wallet! (Turns to Percy) Hi, 你 must be Percy Jackson. I’m Luke. Boss here.
Travis–Theoretically (whisper)
Luke –Travis shut up!
Percy –Hi.
Luke –We’re running out of bunks. As 你 might’ve noticed it’s a little crowded in here. 你 can have that spot over there; we’ll get 你 a sleeping bag 由 tonight.
Percy –Umm, thanks? (Conch horn)
Luke –Supper. Hermes cabin, line up!
Scene change, Percy is sitting at the Hermes table, between the Stoll brothers. They are laughing and having a good time, eating.
