AN: Hey guys, so I finally have begun a new story :) It isn't finished yet, but I want to see how it goes with the prolouge before I finish it. If it doesn't get good enough reviews I may just quit it since I have a very busy year ahead of me. I am also working on a Twilight fic, so that on top of my choir and school may be a bit much. I really like this story though, so I hope y'all do too! Thanks!

Prolouge

Annabeth POV

We were running from more monsters than either Percy or I had dealt with in a long time. The reason for this was simple, sadly. We did as any other married couple had since the sacred institution was invented.

We had had children. A beautiful little girl name Emmeline Grace and a handsome son named Eustace Gilbert and they were 4 and 2 respectively. They had black hair, like their father, but it curled like mine. Their features were a mix, his nose, my mouth, and so forth. Emmy had Athena's eyes while small Gil had Poseidon's eyes.

And now, the monsters were after us. We had wondered before we had had them what they would be like. We were the first to our knowledge to have demigod children that weren't directly from the gods. They were still half god, thanks to Percy giving them a quarter and me giving them a quarter and the same goes for their human side. They were seemingly just as powerful as a normal demigod, if not more since they had the power of two gods and not just one.

A few weeks ago we had been at living happily in a cabin enclosed by the camp's magical boundaries. It was perfect seeing as we had nymphs who could watch the kids when Percy and I ventured into the mortal world for work, though for their safety, nobody but the nymphs knew of their existence. Not even Chiron or Grover. We figured when they were older we would introduce them to the Camp and their grandparents, but for now this was the safest way. I worked as an architect, though mainly from home and Percy was a marine biologist (you have no idea how long that degree had taken him) who worked in a research facility a few days a week.

Everything had taken a turn for the worse when Rachel had come up with a new prophesy.

Four half-bloods of noble descent

Shall rescue the world once again

Two shall be captured

It is not how you think

Their trials will begin soon

Though remember it, they will not

Begin going south, then go to the land of the dead

But once again, Can you save what matters most

In the end?

Chiron thought it meant me and Percy. Percy and I wanted to prevent our children from being captured if the information ever leaked, and that was why we were going to give them up. We had found a thoroughly human orphanage in Texas. We hoped it would be well hidden, but the only problem was going to be getting them there.

"Annabeth!" Percy called as the monster began gaining on us. "I'll hold them off. Get them to the safe house! Run!" I did as he said and grabbed little Gil from his arms.

"Come on, children," I said. "Please Zeus," I prayed. "Help us get your great-grandchildren to safety." Thunder boomed and rain began to pour down. He was helping mask our sent. I sent a wordless thanks up to him and continued to run.

"Mommy!" Emmy said as she was being all but dragged by me. "I don't want to run anymore!"

"We are almost there, baby," I soothed. "We don't have much farther to go." It was the truth. We had only minutes before I had to leave my babies. My beautiful babies were going to grow up without a mother.

I heard a monster's growl. Then, finally, I hit the main road. We weren't far now. Only a few more steps. I all but dragged a crying Emmy up the stairs and pounded on the door. A motherly woman opened the door.

"Yes?" the woman asked looking at me, bleeding, and my two children who were by this time sobbing.

"I am Anna Anaklusmos," Percy and I had decided to change the children's last name for their safety. We decided to name them after his trusty sword. "I am in grave danger. Please, I need you to take care of my kids. Me and my husband are in danger."

"Anna!" I heard Percy yell again. He came running out of the forest with Riptide thankfully put away, though I did see it in pen form in his hands.

"You two come on inside," the woman said. "We can sort this out."

"There isn't time, Ma'am," Percy said soaking wet by choice. He pulled out the plastic bag with all their information. "This has a debit card set up to an account to be used on them and them exclusively. It has their birth certificates, their social security cards, passports, everything. Also, there is a camp they must go to no later than Emmeline's 12th birthday. It is where we went and is important to their survival."

"The children have letters, photos, and extra clothes in their backpacks," I added close to tears. "Goodbye," I said to the lady.

"Emmy," Percy said getting down to her level. "Watch after Gil. Be safe and remember your mom and I love you." She nodded confused. We kissed the children on their cheeks while the stunned lady looked confused.

Percy and I grabbed hands and ran off into the night. "Is this really the right thing to do, Seaweed Brain?" I asked as we tried to escape.

"You're the Wise Girl," he answered back to me. "They will be fine and ours after this quest."
