He accuses Poseidon of being power-hungry. Hades accuses Percy of stealing both the master bolt and the helm of darkness for his father, Poseidon. Once in the Underworld, Percy finds that Hades does not have Zeus’s master bolt, and he is missing his own symbol of power: the helm of darkness.

Zeus tells Poseidon that the master bolt must be returned to Mount Olympus by the summer solstice, or else he will declare war on Poseidon. When Zeus’s master bolt (the thing that allows him to create lightning whenever he wants) is stolen, Poseidon is blamed for the theft.

He is taken to Camp Half-Blood in New York, a camp for kids just like him that is safe from monsters that like to attack half-bloods. He learns that he is a half-blood: half-human, half-god. On the first day of summer, just after his sixth-grade year, Percy discovers that something is wrong with him. He is twelve years old, and he decides to tell us the story of his past year.
