Do you remember Tyson, the Cyclops? Technically he is Percy´s brother, Annabeth and Percy discovered that Tyson is a son of Poseidon so that means that he is Percy´s half-brother. Chiron was a centaur (half human-half horse) and was the director of half-blood hill activities, but he got expulsed, because he said that he poisoned the tree. The new director of activities was Tantalus and he did not care about half-blood hill being destroyed, the only thing that he wanted was creating a race. The race was about to start and everybody was ready.
When the race started, a lot of pigeons appeared at the trees and jumped, when they touched the floor they exploded. The race was over and when the danger passed, half-bloods discovered that the Golden Fleece could cure the poisoned tree. Somebody had to go in search of the Golden Fleece and Tantalus told Clarisse that she can search for it. Percy and Annabeth were dissapointed and escaped from half-blood hill with Tyson to find the Fleece. The Golden Fleece and Grover were at the Sea of Monsters at a tree that was protected by a Cyclops. They boarded a ship named: Princess Andromeda and they found Luke (an old enemy that is son of Hermes). The boat was full of luxuries and Luke tried to convince them of staying there but they just escaped jumping to the ocean.
"Tantalus looked at Annabeth and me as if he wanted to flay us alive. "The champion should be one who has earned the camp´s respect who has proven resourceful in the char-iot races and courageous in the defense of the camp. You shall lead this quest ... Clarisse.""(54) This was a clear sign that Tantalus hated Percy and Annabeth and he told Clarisse that she should go on the quest just for making Percy and Annabeth feel like if nobody cares about them.
""Percy," Annabeth said, "we have to do the quest.""(63) Percy and Annabeth knew that they could find the Golden Fleece so ignoring Tantalus they escaped from half-blood hill and started their quest.
The only thing that Percy wanted to do is go to the Sea of Monsters to find the Golden Fleece and save Grover from the Cyclops. The fact that Chiron had been expulsed was no good for Percy because Tantalus hated him and as far as possible he would not let Percy and Annabeth be the heroes and save the camp and his friend Grover. The only way that he could complete the quest was escaping from the camp and find a boat to go to the Sea of Monsters. At the boat he finds other enemy (Luke) who is someone that hates and wants to kill him. Once again he had to escape, because there is a lot of people that hates him and there are a lot of dangers that he must survive.
