Hey guys, new story. Kinda lost interest in the other two. PM me some ideas and I'll try to get back to those.
The Temple of Poseidon
Chapter 1: A Great Destiny Awaits
Third Person POV
The lights of the machine flickered out, sending a chill through the air. A person appeared in the room of the hospital, sitting down next to the bed. He had long black hair, and sea-green eyes that shone with pride. He had a new son, one who would be the most powerful demi-god ever to live. He loved Sally the most out of all of his past lovers, and had blessed his new son with the most power. Of course, it would also depend on how many temples he would find. But he shouldn't think about that yet. No, definitely not yet.
"Poseidon, you came," a weak voice sounded from the bed.
"Of course I did. He is my son, after all. I also came to see you though. We need to have a talk," the man, now identified as Poseidon, replied.
The troubled look on his face made Sally sit up. "What is wrong, my love?"
"My brothers. They will soon find out about our son. You have three options. Either you move with me to Atlantis," this earned a shake of the head bySally, "you can go to Alaska, the land beyond the gods'," another shake of the head, " that leaves only one option then. You must go live in Hawaii, on the island of Kauai." This one earned a reluctant nod, followed by a sigh.
"I will go live in Kauai, but only because you insisted on me living somewhere that you could protect me."
"I understand. What will you name him?"
"I was thinking of naming him Perseus, and hope that he inherits some of that luck maybe."
Poseidon's face turned into a grin, and he gave a small chuckle. "You would name him after a son of Zeus? I like it, insulting my brother while he is not able to kill our son anyways."
"What do you mean, he can't kill him anyways?"
A pained expression came across his face. " Our son has a great, yet terrible destiny. The Laws forbid me from saying more, I am sorry. Just protect him well, and let him know about his heritage from the very beginning. He will need much training to survive."
"Won't that make him attract more monsters, knowing about his heritage?"
"It would, if the circumstances were normal. But you will be living in Hawaii. That is my domainWell anyways, I should probably be going now. I will send money into your bank account weekly. It should help you get by."
"Thank you so much for everything you've done for me and Percy." Poseidon started fading away.
"I love you Sally, now get some rest." He faded away, leaving the smell of the ocean in the room.
"I love you too," she wispered into the air. She quickly closed her eyes, falling into a deep sleep.
LINE BREAK
In the infant room
The cryong of babies subsided as Poseidon faded into existence besides a cradle marked PERSEUS ALEXANDER JACKSON. The man looked into the cradle, smiling when he saw that his son was awake. Sea-green eyes stared bak into his, never blinking and always focused.
"My son, you have a great destiny ahead of you, dont screw that up." The man spoke in a stern voice, and the baby just looked up into his eyes with confusion.
"The first Temple is on Ni'ihau. You will find it, and soon my young son. Within 10 years. Goodbye, my son." With that, he faded out of the room.
Left behind was a young baby, with sea-green eyes, raven black hair, and a great destiny ahead of him.
So, I had this new idea. He lives in Hawaii now, so he is more easily protected by Poseidon. What are the Temples though? How will they make him more powerful?
All of these questions will be answered in time.
Next time, Percy will be around 9 years old I think.
Anyways, R&R
