First person

Percy

I walked back to my cabin.

I wasn't tired. Apollo was right about that. But there was a letter I had found from my parents and I had never been able to read it.

I took it out from my pocket and read it.

Dear Percy,

If you are reading this, then we are dead.

But there is something that we need to tell you.

To put it bluntly, we were not human.

We were aliens from the planet Galifray (spelling?) and we're called Time Lords. We have the TARDIS, the blue police box in our bedroom. It's a time and space traveling machine.

Time lords can regenerate (which is pretty much cheating death, sorry Hades) twelve times. We had been on our twelfth regeneration cycles. We were a few thousand years old in total. It's weird being older than some of the gods.

You can find out the rest when you go in the TARDIS.

Your mom,
Sally Jackson-Blowfis
And
Your step father,
Paul Blowfis

My reaction to this? Just like any other sane person's would be.

I yelled out a bunch of curse words in Italian.
