Third Person POV

A loud scream pierced the silence of the makeshift delivery room in Hestia's palace. Hestia carefully wrapped the newborn boy in a blank it and pressed him into his mothers arms, Athena's arms. "He's beautiful" Athena said as the boy's cries died down "yes he is" Poseidon said looking down at his son, his signature grin of his face. The boy had a small tuft of black hair on his and greyish sea green eye's. "What are we going to do" Athena asked "if my father finds out about our relationship our son's life is forfeit" "we'll figure something out" Poseidon said kissing her forehead.

"You could raise him in the mortal world" Hestia said "but wouldn't Zeus still notice the presences of a new god" Poseidon asked, Hestia shook her head "I have a way of hiding his godly presence, his power will return to him at random sometime after he turns 17 and before he turns 25. The drawback to this is till his powers return he'll be in essence a half blood, a mortal. Normally I wouldn't recommend this but at the moment I can see no other option." she said. Athena thought for a moment "could I have a moment alone with Poseidon" "of course" Hestia said leaving the room. "I think we should do it" Athena said after Hestia left "are you sure?" Poseidon asked "we won't get to raise him if we send him to the mortal world" "not true" Athena said, Poseidon gave her a puzzled look.

"The ancient laws only state that a half blood must be raised by his mortal parent, since neither of us are mortal we can see him any time we want. I'll send part of my essence to raise him in the mortal world nobody will noticed if my power weakens a bit. You'll can visit him as often as you can and I'll change my looks so no one recognizes me." Athena said "ok" Poseidon said before calling Hestia back in and in forming her of their decision. She nodded and performed the ceremony "so what will you call him" Hestia asked "how about Perseus Jackson we could call him Percy for short" Athena said "Percy Jackson sounds great to me" Poseidon said.

Percy POV 12 years later

I was riding a bus with my best friend Grover on my way to a museum as part of a school field trip. My english teacher Mrs Dodds had been staring at me the whole ride and it was starting to really freak me out. While at the same time a classmate of mine named Nancy Bobofit kept throwing pieces of her PB&J at Grover which was making me mad. After one piece pegged him right between the eyes I moved to get up but Grover held me down "dude just let it go you're already on probation, besides I like peanut butter" Grover said "fine but I'm doing something if she keeps it up" I said, ironically Nancy stopped but I think it was more do to the fact that most of her sandwich was now on Grovers shirt.

To be honest I didn't really pay attention to what my latin teacher Mr Brunner was saying, he was my favorite teacher by far but the tour was all on Greek mythology and I have ADHD. My mom used to tell me a lot of them at bed time stories, although she would change them slightly. Heracules still did a lot of awesome stuff but he sounded like a huge jerk, Perseus the slayer of Medusa was made to be one of the greatest heroes of all time. Not because he killed Medusa but because he didn't let the fame go to his head, mom did seem really happy about him killing Medusa too.

Grover elbowed me knocking me out of my thoughts, "Percy would you mind telling me what this carving is depicting?" Mr Brunner asked for what was probably the 2nd or 3rd time if his tone was anything to go by. I looked at the stone in front of me but the carving was too worn to really make anything out, I looked around for one of those information signs but of course there was none. I was about to give up when I saw the inscription on the rock written in greek, and I was surprised that it actually made sense "it's Heracules fighting the nemean Lion right" "correct".

After the tour we went outside to have lunch, me and Grover sat by a fountain trying to enjoy the break but Nancy had other plans. "Hey losers" Nancy said dropping what was left of her lunch into Grovers lap spraying ketchup every where. I saw red and felt a pull in my gut, next thing I know Nancy is in the fountain soaking wet "Percy pushed me" Nancy shouted. "What, no I didn't" "Perseus Jackson!" Mrs Dodds said walking over to me with a triumphant look on her face "come with me".

I followed her back to the museum and into an empty room "look I don't know wha.." "where is it" she growled "where's what" I asked. "Don't play dumb with me give it to me!" she shouted her voice splitting and becoming in humanly deep. "I don't know what you're talking about" I said backing away Mrs Dodds turned into this leathery batwinged thing and flew at me "Percy catch" Mr Brunner shouted throwing me a sword which I caught easily. On instinct I swung the sword slicing the former Mrs Dodds in half who turned to dust right after.

I turned back to talk to Mr Brunner but he wasn't there, I went outside and found Mr brunner sitting in his wheelchair like nothing happened "um Mr Brunner" I said, he looked up from his book "ah my pen" he said grabbing the pen in my hand that had been a sword a few seconds earlier "please remember to bring your own writing utensils next time, now everyone back on the bus". "I hope Miss Johnson suspended you" Nancy said as I passed her, "Grover who's Miss Johnson" I asked. Grover hesitated for sec then said "she's the english teacher remember" "no thats Mrs Dodds" "who?".

I asked around and no one seemed to even remember her, Mrs dodds just seemed to disappear altogether which would normally be a dream come true but now was just freaking me out. Miss Johnson sat across from me and Grover on the ride back and let me just say she gave new meaning to the term chatter box. By the time we got back I couldn't take it anymore I jumped right off the bus grabbed my stuff and grabbed the next train home.

It was the last day of school so it didn't matter that I skipped my last class. Grover decided to come with me which was weird because he never skips class, I should know we have all the same classes. I never really skipped either if I did my mom would kill me but today I decided to make an exception. The whole ride Grover kept looking over his shoulder and all together being really weird.

At the station Grover had to use the bathroom, yelled good bye and hopped in a cab. I paid with a 20 and went up to my moms apartment "mom I'm home" I said opening the door. "Percy what are you doing home so early" she asked giving me a hug, mom was about 5' 10'' had black hair and grey eye's. "The day sucked and we were just going to watch a documentary on coins in my next class so I skipped". She folded her arms and gave me a stern look that made me a bit nervous "you're just lucky it's the last day of school or I'd ground yo for a month" she said "but as it is why don't you go get packed" "why" I asked "because we going to montauk" she said giving me a wink "really" I said excitedly "yep, your father is going to meet us there".

I gave my mom another hug and ran into my bedroom, we had been going to montauk since I could remember. It's special to my parents for some reason, I think they met there or something but I never really asked. I was also excited that my dad was coming, he was gone a lot on business but always seemed to make it home for the important things. He also never married my mom but I don't know why they seem to love each other, I brought it up once and my mom said that they were just waiting for the right time.

When I came out of my room my mom was talking to our super, his name was Gabe, he reeked of beer, and he put the ug in ugly. My once said that he was so ugly he made Hephaestus look like a prince, I laughed but found her choice of words a little weird. "So how about it Sally wanted to ditch the kid and join me for dinner" ever since we moved here Gabe had been trying to go out with my mom and once ended up in a fist fight with my dad for bad mouthing my mom for turning him down yet again. "As I have told you before the answer is no now if you excuses me I'll be leaving now" she said picking up her bag and locking the door behind us "hey I wasn't done talking to you yet" Gabe said grabbing moms arm, in a split second she judo flipped him and said "I have warned you about leaving me alone bother me again and I will call the cops" then we hopped in the car and headed to montauk.
