(A/N: I forgot to mention that this book takes place only 1 year after Uncharted (3): Drake's Deception, which took place in 2011, and this happens before Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, which takes place three years after the third game. This fanfic will be around the years 2012-13, so Sam, Nadine, Rafe, or any other Uncharted 4 characters will not be in this fanfic, although there will be mentions of them though)

(WARNING: SPOILERS ALERT!!! If you have not read the PJO/HOO series, or played the Uncharted franchise, then do not carry on! (But you can if you want to) Carry on!)

The most difficult thing in life is to know yourself ~Thales
Nathan POV
After twelve years. Twelve DAMNED years, I was done. My life was finally complete. I was no longer Nathan Drake, treasure hunter and thief, but now I was Nathan Drake, a married man to reporter Elena Fisher, resident of New Orleans, and underwater salvager of the Jameson Marine Inc. In other words, I was a happy man, even if I had no fortune. You see, you may not know me, but in fact, I was a treasure hunter, slash thief before I had a new life. With me and my father figure, slash dear friend Victor Sullivan, we had a life of stealing (or what we called: 'permanently- borrowing') and treasure hunting. We had always been for our fortune, but what we really wanted was to make a name for ourselves. I wanted people to know me on the front cover of a newspaper as 'Nathan Drake - the long-lost heir of Sir Francis Drake who makes a name for himself for discovering: something, something...'. I know, it was stupid dream, but it would've been something that my mom - Cassandra would've wanted. And my brother Sam. I always told people except Sully that I was the only child who was born to Cassandra Morgan, but I in fact had an older brother named Sam. He was always there for me, whether if it was in the orphanage, when he got kicked out for criminal activity, or when we both grew up out of the orphanage, he'd be there by my side. Ever since that day, when we tried to escape a Panamanian prison facility with a rich asshole named Rafe Adler, to search for the clue to Captain Henry Avery's treasure, I saw those guards shoot him behind his back as I tried to pull him up. I saw him die right in front of me, falling, as I never caught him, and left him there. So everyday I mourn for him, and I wondered what it'd be like if only he could've been here to see what greatness I've done with this life. But no... I didn't want to think back to that day, that very day. Instead I wanted to focus on the present. Me and Elena were living a happy life in the suburbs, sometimes she worked at home to work on her journals for the upcoming travel magazine, looking over them not once, twice, but three times in case of typos or misuse of wrong words.  But of course, if I had leftover money after paying off our mortgage and buying groceries, we'd plan trips to breathtaking places like Nepal or South Africa, so we'd capture footage, pictures, and Elena would get more research for her journals. Most people would kill to go to a five-star hotel in Vegas or NYC, but it was the absolute opposite when it came to us. And my job at the salvaging company, it usually doesn't go that great. We'd sometimes get outbid at the money-making opportunities or the contractor usually couldn't get the warrants, so I usually got stuck to diving underwater to salvage wrecked cars or semi trailers with cargo inside. If the cargo wasn't accounted for, then the job isn't done. Gotta admit, it's kinda fun to take a swim when it's part of your job (except for when Elena complains of the smell sometimes, and  I'd have to take like two showers to get the smell of fish and salty river water off of me). And my co-worker, Jameson is a really great guy. He manages how we do the job, sorting the right equipment, and managing the manifests. The guy loves his job, but he wants to talk about making plans for his retirement, since he'd been working for nearly forty years at the Marina. He says that 'if we ever get the money-making-opportunity, we'd never have to work t'il we're 65.' I have to admit, the guy is right, I retired from my life of stealing, ,and treasure hunting, and in another twenty years or so I'll retire too. And if we ever get the 'money-making-opportunity', it's fine be me, as long as there's no guns, bullets, explosions, Mercenaries, Pirates, or a whole bunch of assholes trying to kill me. I lay down my guns, I put away the adventurous old me, because now, my life is done.

Percy POV
I could not believe it. I thought my life couldn't finally get any better. Because in a few days, I was going to finally propose to my one and only love of my life - Annabeth Chase, the daughter of Athena.
Yes, THE Athena - the Greek goddess of Wisdom, Knowledge, and Battle Strategy. You see, we're not exactly like normal people. Me and Annabeth, we're Half-Bloods (A.K.A. Demigods). We're children who have one mortal parent, and the other is a Greek of Roman Olympian god. Annabeth is a daughter of Athena, and I was a forbidden child of one of the Big Three - Poseidon.
I never would have believed it at first, but six to seven years ago, when I was only twelve years old, I discovered that there were crazy thing happening in my life. For starters; monsters were following me and attempting to kill me, I discover I am a demigod instead of being a 'mortal', I find out the Greek myths weren't myths at all. But of course, I am a prophet of not one, but TWO great prophecies. I've grown up for seven years, knowing I was to fulfill a life-changing prophecy, and also to meet, and lose people along the way. A year after those crazy events, me and Annabeth have figured out we'd part of ANOTHER great prophecy - The Prophecy of Seven. All to defeat the one and only Earth Mother and her children the Giants. All Gaea did was promise them power, control, and victory, but she lied; stating that 'promises were meant to be broken'. So me, Annabeth, Jason Grace, Piper McLean, Leo Valdez, Frank Zhang, and Hazel Levesque, we were the seven of the prophecy. It was a long and hard journey, all to defeat the Giants with the help of our parents and other gods (some of which were helping Gaea, but changed their minds to help us), we had gained the ability to defeat Gaea and her children, and put her back to sleep. But at the cost of a life...
He will be missed, but at least he will be gone to Elysium, for avenging his mother and saving the world, the gods, and our camps. Our lives were hard and dangerous, at the cost of lives, and to save many, I hope that the gods will give us a break. Let us enjoy our lives, let us live free; no monsters, no battles, no blades, no nothing. But what can I say, it's the lives we live, and we have to stick with them - even if we didn't ask for it. But now, I want to make my life whole, I want to ask Athena for permission to marry her daughter. You'd think she'd be like most mothers to nod and say 'yes', but she wasn't. She'd probably send me on a quest to prove my worthiness to her. If you're wondering why she would do that, it's because of the grudge between Athena and my dad. Poseidon wanted to see the world in one way when he wanted to be the patron god of Athens, Athena saw it another way. So they wanted to see who the people wanted to choose of their respect. My dad created a salt-water spring for them, but Athena created the Olive Tree, the very first one, and the people of Athens had chosen Athena as Athens' patron goddess. And so, that's where their rivalry began, and it's pretty much the same with Poseidon and Athena's children. Not me and Annabeth though. So If I was gonna ask Athena for permission to marry her, I'll be ready, because after this, my life is done.
