Percy Jackson: Lights of the Future

First chapter of a new Percy Jackson story I thought up, this one has each of the seven (plus Calypso) together, in the future, married and with kids; anyway, hope you enjoy :)

Disclaimer: Percy Jackson and all characters belong to Rick Riordan, the children however I made up, so I guess I own them.

Chapter 1

The sound of the alarm clock jolted the young blonde haired grey-eyed woman into wakefulness. She yawned and then smiled, turning to her still sleeping husband; she almost laughed at how his messy black hair was made even messier due to bed head.

"C'mon Percy, time to get up." She said.

Percy grumbled and groaned. "Urgh, five more minutes, Annabeth."

She laughed, shaking her head. "Not this again mister; up, now."

"Urgh, alright, alright, I'm up." Percy groaned as he sat up, rubbing his eyes and yawning.

Annabeth got out of bed and quickly began getting ready. Percy did the same, albeit, much more slowly.

"Percy." She prodded. "Hurry up, you know we can't be late today."

He grudgingly complied and soon they were both ready.

"Right, I'll go get the kids up." Percy said with a soft smile.

Annabeth grinned and nodded, kissing him before heading downstairs. Percy meanwhile entered one of the remaining two bedrooms in their home. In here, there were two beds, both containing sleeping children. Both were boys, one aged eight, the other five both had tan skin but the oldest had black hair, the younger blonde. Approaching the eldest first, Percy gently shook his shoulder.

"C'mon Luke, time to wake up."

Luke Jackson mumbled, opening his grey eyes. "I'm up dad, I'm up."

Percy shook his head. "On your feet up, I mean. You too, Richard, come on."

Richard opened his green eyes and sprung out of bed, taking more after his mother than his father. With the boys awake and heading down to breakfast; Percy headed to his and Annabeth's daughter's room. He almost laughed as he entered.

Seven year old Emma Jackson was already awake and ready for the day, her blonde hair pulled into a small ponytail, her green eyes sparkling with their usual excitement; she was skinny, short and tan skinned like all the kids, it seemed to Percy he and Annabeth had both blessed their children with a perfect mixture of their genes.

"Good girl, c'mon, it's breakfast time." He said cheerfully.

Grinning Emma followed her father as they headed downstairs, all ready to begin their day.

Jason Grace stifled a yawn as he finished pouring his morning coffee. He grinned as he turned towards the table, observing his wife. Piper returned his grin as she finished setting down the pancakes for their children. Eight year old Ralph Grace and six year old Lacie. Ralph had inherited his hair and eye colour, but had an otherwise Native American appearance. Lacie meanwhile was the opposite, with dark brown hair, her mother's multi-coloured eyes yet was fair skinned.

"So, you kids ready for school today?" He asked as he sat down at the table next to Piper.

They both nodded enthusiastically.

"Yeah dad." Ralph replied cheerfully.

Smiling the family all began to eat when Lacie finally broke it.

"Are Uncle Percy and Auntie Annabeth coming around today?"

Piper nodded. "Yeah, they said they'd be coming over for dinner."

The kids both grinned and later, as they were getting their school bags, shoes and jackets, Jason turned to Piper.

"Well, this is gonna be fun, you know what Ralph and Lacie are like when Percy and Annabeth come over, add in their three and, well..."

Piper laughed. "Oh give it a rest Jason; this is going to be nice and you know it."

Kissing her Jason agreed. "Oh, I do...of course I do."

They kissed again, only parting at the sounds of their kids laughter and fake gagging.

Frank Zhang could hardly believe believe how much they had grown. He was watching in amazement as Hazel was helping their children get dressed. Five year old Samuel Zhang had inherited his mother's gold eyes and dark skin, while also inheriting his black hair. Meanwhile four year old Casey Zhang had her mother's curly brown hair and gold eyes, while otherwise taking after him.

"C'mon now, you two." Hazel said softly. "Stay still while I get you ready."

Both kids nodded; smiling. They were young yes, but were already so friendly and kind, good-natured.

Frank stepped in. "Alright now, I'll be dropping you both off at preschool, remember now."

They both nodded and Samuel spoke. "Yes daddy, we remember, you'll drop us off and mommy will be there to pick us up once it's done."

Casey nodded along and Frank grinned. Before long they had both kids in the car, ready to go, they kissed and Hazel headed for her car.

"I'll see you when you get home from work." She told him.

Frank nodded. "Of course; I'll see you."

They both got into their cars and began their morning commute; both happy and cheerful and looking at a good and happy life; after all the drama of their teenage years.

Calypso let out a tired sigh as she shook her head.

"Leo!" She called out to her husband.

When he finally appeared she saw his mischievous grin and rolled her eyes.

"Yes, dear?" He asked innocently, too innocently.

She shook her head, noting the brown haired, brown eyed three year old Latino boy hiding behind Leo's legs, giggling non-stop.

"I happened to stumble across the latest prank; but it's a little too elaborate for little Tony Valdez...anything you wish to say?" She queried.

Leo shrugged and laughed. "Maybe, our kid's a genius?"

Calypso couldn't help herself, she laughed and shook her head. "My little troublemakers, what am I gonna do with you."

They all laughed after that; pleased to have finally found such peace and happiness, something they shared with all their friends and their families.

End of chapter, wanted this one to basically be a welcoming one, introducing the families and their kids, anyway, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please :)
