Brotherhood
Chapter 1: Prolouge/New Arrivals
A/N: Welcome to my new story! I'll promise you right now, I'll try to keep track on this story and post in a few days instead of a few months. Heheh, sorry, but those of you that know me know I post really late. But like I said, I'll try my hardest! School and sports have really gotten me off track with my stories.
I think you really will love this story, some comedy, but mostly, drama. This story is based on Percy's POV. Just Percy.
The Civil War, World War II, just about any war, how do they all relate? No, not that they each have enemies, not that they all have casualties. Yes, they do relate to that, but you know what else? They all have to be confronted with the children of the Big Three.
War after war, the conflict between Poseidon, Hades and Zeus grows stronger. And therefore, their hatred grows stronger.
Even as Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon, had saved the gods from a horrible defeat, the hatred towards the Big Three is still raging strong. The pact of not having children is no longer lingering, so the Big Three may have as much children as they want.
The Big Three's children can be dangerous. And since Percy Jackson had his wish granted, the gods can sire as many heroes as they please. But the worse comes to worse when Zeus, Poseidon and Hades have an argument. That argument soon called for war. Once again, the ocean, the sky and death will war against each other, bringing their children in with them, the bloodiest war will happen. Who will win?
Camp Half-Blood was seriously growing. New cabins, new people, new teachers, this place couldn't have gotten better.
I was lounging around in my cabin, since Tyson had to help Poseidon rebuild his temple, I was alone. But it didn't bother me much, though I really missed Tyson. My room had been renovated. The far left of the cabin was an actual pool that was about thirty feet deep on the deep end, and if you actually swam to the bottom, (which only a child of Poseidon could do), you could enter a spectacular looking tunnel that magically brought you to the ocean. Some of the campers called it my very own scenic route, but I call it my escape route.
While I was thinking about all this, somebody knocked on the door.
"Percy?" The stranger said.
I opened the door and saw it was Chiron, beside him was a kid. The boy had sea-green eyes like mine, and black hair. His face had a bit of a scar that stretched from the bottom of his chin to the side of his mouth. He looked about ten or eleven years old.
"Yes, Chiron?"
Chiron stepped inside of the cabin and told the kid to stay behind. He motioned for me to sit down.
"Percy," He seemed excited. "I'm happy to say, you have a new roommate."
My jaw dropped. "A new roommate? You mean, a brother?"
Chiron chuckled. "Yes, a brother. I'm surprised as much as you, apparently Poseidon sired this young lad when the Big Three Pact was still intact. But no matter, the Pact is officially gone."
I thought back on the breaking of the pact. After the war against the Titans, the gods granted my wish. I asked them to take off the pact and to not ignore their kids, and yet they followed it.
"Well Chiron, bring him in here." I said.
"Why of course, Percy." He walked over to the door. The kid was sitting of the steps and staring out into the camp.
Chiron tapped his shoulder and whispered something to him. He nodded and walked into the room.
"Hey," I said, extending my hand. "I'm Percy Jackson."
The kid looked into my eyes shyly and shook my hand, "My name is Bradley, but some people call me Brad, Bradley makes me feel pretty stupid."
I laughed, I was glad to now have a brother. "Well Brad, welcome to Camp Half-Blood, or in this case welcome to our dad's cabin."
Brad looked around the room. His eyes widened when he saw the pool, "That's awesome! We have our own pool?"
I nodded. "We are the sons of Poseidon, which means- we love water."
He cracked a smile at that, he was about to jump in but he stopped.
"Percy," He said. "Why were you the only son of Poseidon in the camp?"
That question caught me off guard. "Well, you see Brad," I looked straight into his eyes. His eyes had a fragile look, as if he would cry at any second. "Dad had to follow a pact that didn't allow him to sire any kids. But you and me, let's say he wasn't allowed to have us."
He shook his head. "I don't understand, you mean we're the only kids of Poseidon in existence?"
I nodded.
"No," He looked into my eyes again, there was a sort of disbelief in his eyes now. "It can't be true."
"Why?"
"I-I don't know, it just doesn't seem right."
It looked like Brad was really having a hard time with this. I put my hand on his shoulder, "Look, it's hard, really I know. Anyways, it's your first day, you just found out about this Greek stuff."
He nodded, "It is hard."
"Has Chiron given you a tour yet?"
"No, he wanted me here in a hurry. Will you give me one?"
I smiled, "Sure, bro let's get going." I led him out the door.
Brad was enthusiastic on the tour around camp, you wouldn't have known if he was troubled with the being-the-only-children-of-Poseidon-kind-of-thing. I showed him the typical kind of tour: Big-House first, show the cabins, show the arena, where to eat, not to go into the forest alone, that kind of tour.
We passed by the Ares cabin and that's when one kid threw a blunt javelin at Brad's back, it didn't kill him but it seriously hurt him.
"Hey!" He screamed at the Ares kid. I picked up Brad and took the javelin in my hand.
The Ares kid smiled, then he looked at me, "He Percy, looks like you have a new brother! We have a new runt we can squish." He laughed.
I frowned at the Ares kid, I didn't know him, "You're not going to touch him."
"You're not going to touch him," He mocked in a girly tone, "Really, Percy?"
"Yes. And to make sure you promise," I threw the javelin towards his face. The javelin ended up hitting his nose, I could've sworn I heard a pop.
"AHH!" The Ares kid screamed. He fell down on the ground and crawled into his cabin. I could hear him scream, "I'm going to kill him! I WILL KILL HIM! **** those Poseidon kids! **** them!"
"C'mon," I turned to Brad, "Sorry about that, me and the Ares kids have a rivalry coming on."
Brad shuddered. "They're really going to kill me."
"I wouldn't worry about that now, don't worry. I'll protect you as long as you're in my sight."
He smiled at me, "Thanks Percy."
I nodded. "C'mon, I want to introduce you to someone."
We walked across the section of cabins to the Athena cabin. Brad was looking around just in case any Ares kids were walking around. The Ares kid troubled me, he was a newcomer for sure, but the new Ares kids never seem to pick on the veterans. And how did he know my name?
I shook the thought away from my mind, we arrived at the Athena cabin.
"Looks like a place for nerds." Brad scowled. "I hate places with books."
I chuckled. "The Athena kids are braniacs. They like to study and read, but they're pretty cool. The leader is my girlfriend."
I walked into the cabin, only a few were inside, all of them were drawing up a map. Maybe some battle strategy for capture the flag.
Brad whispered into my ear. "They're all blonde. Does Athena like blonde guys or something?"
I nodded. "It's a long story, not here though." I turned to the kids working on the map. "Hey guys, where's Annabeth?"
They all turned to me, one tall kid said, "Well, if it isn't Annabeth's boyfriend! Honestly, we don't know. But she'll be here by dinner, dinner's in ten minutes."
I said, "Thanks."
The tall dude nodded a "your welcome" and turned back at the map.
The conch horn sounded, dinnertime.
"Okay, Brad, it's dinner. Let's go introduce you to the whole camp." I said.
Well, there's the first chapter!
Tell me how it is, tell me if it needs improvement, tell me if you don't like it, tell me if you like it!
C'mon I need those reviews!
I'll post soon.
