Hi! This is a sequel to A Quest for the Dead, where it's 10 years into the future and you see the kids of the people. I'm sorry to say that I had Thalia be dead…but at least it was in battle. I know she's loved deeply. So! I've worked hard on this. This link to Quest for the Dead is below this, and I recommend for you to read it before this. It gets annoying at the middle but there are some good parts in it! Also, I have a prologue called It's Good to be Home? At the time, I thought that Roman camps were evil since I hadn't read the Heroes of Olympus books yet. So yeah…

Annabeth's POV

I hold my youngest child, Thalia,'s hand as we walk to the park to swing. Percy walks beside me, clutching my waist. Every now and then, he tightens his grip, snickering as I try to escape from the ticklish feeling.

"Percy, stop!" I laugh and I shove him away playfully. He just chuckles and kisses my forehead. I blush. Thalia giggles with excitement as she trots over to her older brother, Luke. I hold onto Percy's shirt as I remember my two friends. Luke had died, with Kronos in his body. He had killed himself. Thalia had recently died too, I battle. She was fighting the hydra, after it reformed and she was clawed at her chest. She died immediately. I felt my eyes water, honored to name my children after them. Percy, noticing my sadness, squeezed me in a comforting way.

"Mommy! Mommy! Look what I can do!" Luke squealed as he did a summersault.

"Good for you!" I say, smiling as my five year old boy laughs and giggles. Thalia ties to mimic him, but she falls on her butt. I laugh. Thalia doesn't seem effected though. She just stands up and runs after her brother.

"I can't believe that I could be dead right now…" I say. Percy looks down.

"I can't believe that that was ten years ago…" he replies. I smile at him. His green eyes are still as pretty as ever. I think of my children.

"Who do you think they'll be descendants of? Poseidon or Athena?" I ask, looking at the children.

"Maybe one of each, but I can't know for sure…" Percy replies. We stop at the playground and we sit on the bench. I curl up next to him and still feel marveled at the fitness of his chest.

"Do you think we'll be attacked?" I ask.

"I've got my Riptide, so I think we'll be covered." I smile as he pulls out the bronze pen. The sunset colors the sky with reds, yellows, and purples. I can't help but feel relaxed.

"Mommy? Daddy? Are you going to tell us a story?" Luke asks. I look up at Percy and I whispered into his ear. He listens as I gesture that we should tell them soon about our parents and why they don't have a certain grandmother or a certain grandfather. He nods slowly and replies that we will tell Thalia this story again when she comes to age.

"Yes. But first, Luke, there is something we need to tell you. You know how you've never met my mother and you dad's father, well, they're Greek Gods…" I say. Luke seems confused.

"You mean like da gods fr'm da stories you has told me?" he asks. I nod. "Like Zeus and Hades and the others?" We nod again. "THAT'S SO COOL!"

"It is!" Percy says.

"Who's your dad?" Luke asks Percy.

"Poseidon. I can control water and I can breathe underwater too!" Percy brags. I take out my water bottle, so we can show Luke. I open the cap. Percy concentrates on the water and moves his hand. The water lifts from the bottle and it slashes on the playground.

"WOW!" Luke marvels. He looks at me. "Grandma?"

"Athena…" I tell him. "That's why I'm an architect! I build and design buildings!" I tell him.

"I always liked Athena!" Luke says. I ruffle his hair and I giggle at Thalia who is picking at the grass and placing it on her head. "Can I meet them?"

"I bet you will…" a voice I knew too well said behind us.

"STRANGER DANGER!" Luke yells but Thalia walks over and hugs the man's feet. I smile at her and I look up at Poseidon and Athena standing far apart from each other.

"I still don't like you having, HIM, as a husband. You could have done SO much better…" Athena teases. I hug her.

"Hi mom…" I tell her.

"Hi, sweetie…" she smiles at Thalia.

"I bet this is Thalia…" Poseidon says.

"All the way!" Percy says smiling at him. "And this is Luke." Luke peaks out from behind the bench he was hiding behind.

"Daddy? Mommy? Who these people?" Luke asks.

"These are your grandparents!" I tell him.

"This is Poseidon and Athena? But they're so young!" We all break out laughing. "What's so funny?"

"Remember, they live forever!" Percy says, ruffling his son's hair. "Do you want to meet them?"

"YES!" he squealed. I pull him toward Athena.

"Ladies first!" I say, nudging Percy. "This is my mom, Athena.

"He's got my eyes!" Athena marvels. I smile.

"Yeah, and Percy's hair…" I say. Athena laughs.

"The eyes tell more stories…" She says.

"Another famous quote by the Wisdom Goddess!" Percy teases.

"Jackson…" Athena glares, but Percy just laughs.

"I'm happy to see that Thalia's got my eyes…" Poseidon says.

"And my hair!" Annabeth shrieks.

"Hold your horses!" Poseidon says.

"For you literally!" Athena teases.

"Did you know, technically, I'm your cousin?" Percy asks Athena.

"Sadly yes, if gods had DNA!" she said. The lights began to fade and the darkness launched upon us.

"HEY APOLLO! TURN THE LIGHTS BACK ON!" Luke yells at the sky. No one can hold back there snickers and snorts.

"We should head back…to the house…" I tell Percy.

"Do you wanna come with, Sidon?" Percy asks Poseidon.

"I'll come too!" Athena says.

"Right, never mind then…" Percy says, pretending to walk away.

"JACKSON! I'LL DESTROY YOU!" Athena threatens.

"NO you won't!" he replies.

"MOM! What about the story?" Luke asks and I pick up Thalia, who fiddles with my wedding ring.

"It's getting late, and I'm thinking about inviting some friends, who were there with us, to tell it too!" I reply. Luke looks sad, but I just tickle his underarm with my free hand and he giggles out of the way.

"Okay, let's get back to home…"
