Hello! So far as I know, I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Rick Riordan does. I do, however, own Siofra, as well as my changes to the story line.
1992 A.D.
Mount Olympus
Zeus and Poseidon were in their usual seats at the Olympian Council. Today was not, however, a routine meeting. This meeting was taking place for one reason, and one reason only: To decide what to do with the two godlings born of Zeus and Poseidon, respectively. It was dangerous for a young god to be on Olympus, monsters would take their chances in the divine city, and would wreak havoc.
Hera was not being much of a help, simply staring at Zeus, angry that he had the nerve to have a child with Hestia, and Poseidon was just glad that Amphitrite wasn't there, or he would receive the same treatment.
Athena thought that the two should be sent to Camp Half Blood, and Demeter was arguing that it was too dangerous in the mortal world. They would be a danger to the humans. Suddenly, after hours of fighting, everyone looked at Apollo, the god of prophecies. Surely he would know what to do...
He spoke:
"Two young godlings
of highest power
shall be raised by a mortal
until the hour
when Olympus,
in a time of need,
must upon them plead.
"Later, the two
shall defend
a child of Hades
until the end.
When the fate of all rests
in the half-bloods' hands."
"Well," said Zeus. "I suppose that settles it. Siofra and Perseus will be raised by a mortal."
"Brother?" Poseidon asked the question that everyone else was thinking. "What mortal would be crazy enough to take care of two of the most powerful godlings yet? Especially our children?"
