Prologue:
A young boy was running through the woods of central park in New York City. An overly large hellhound and a giant Cyclops were hot on his trail. If you looked closely you could see that he had been on the run for a long time. He was very thin and he had a lot of cuts and bruises all around his body. That's not all though, he also had a couple scars on his face. One from his forehead running over his eye, down to the corner of his mouth. The other just faintly could be seen across his cheek. Overall he looked like he was about to pass out.
The monsters were gaining on him until he saw a few people huddled around a campfire. He didn't have time to ask for help he put his head down and leaped across the fire hoping the people would help him. When he got back to his feet he saw the woman snap her fingers and the monsters disappeared.
That's when he noticed the other two men and he scurried to the woman nervously, obviously afraid. That's when he noticed her warm red eyes and he relaxed a little.
"W.. Who a.. are you? He asked a little less nervously.
The woman gave him a warm smile, " You don't have to worry anymore those monsters are gone and my brothers wont hurt you. My names Hestia. May I ask what your doing out here all alone?"
His expression went from nervous to angry. " My step father was about to kill me when my mom went and hit him I ran out of the house, not before seeing him pull out a gun and shoot her. I was so shocked I almost didn't run but I heard him reload and I sprinted away. I wasn't strong enough to protect her so I just kept running."
He then just remembered the other two men and whipped around. The first man was about six and a half feet with a kind smile. He had sea green eyes, very different than my electric blue ones. He was very tan like he spent every second in the sun and was wearing khaki shorts with a Hawaiian style shirt on.
The other guy was about the same height except dressed in all black. He had obsidian black eyes and he couldn't decide if the expression he wore was friendly or unfriendly. He had very pale skin like a ghost.
Hestia noticing his expression got down on a knee and said "Its okay those are my brothers and they wont hurt you. The one on the left is Poseidon with the sea green eyes. The one on the right with black eyes, that's Hades."
"Like the Greek Gods?" Percy questioned shocked.
Hestia gave him a warm smile, "Exactly, you sure know a lot for such a young kid. Do you know who your father is?"
He wore an angry expression once again, "No he left me and my mom to smelly Gabe before I was born. I hope to never see him."
Hades looked into his eyes for a moment, then got an angry look on his face.
"He's a son of Zeus. The eyes give it away, and he smells like ozone. I thought it was a coincidence at first, but now I'm positive that he's a son of Zeus." He exclaimed angrily.
The boy stepped back in fear.
Hestia stepped in front of the child. "You will not hurt a hair on his head because of our brothers shortcomings. I looked into his memories and he has been through more than anyone should go through in a lifetime, let alone a child of not even 6 years old." Hestia exclaimed just as angrily.
"I agree with Hestia." Poseidon said quick to defend the kid.
He then turned around, "what's your name little guy and how old are you?"
Percy peeked out from behind Hestia and said in a barely audible voice, "My names Perseus and I'm 4 years old."
They all looked shocked. Poseidon waved Hestia over. "Ill be right back Perseus" she said.
She went over to Hades and Poseidon.
After a minute of silence Poseidon spoke up, "We cant just leave him and he clearly has no love for Zeus. Id offer to take him to Atlantis with me but I don't think anyone would like a child of Zeus down there. I think you should adopt him and take him down to the underworld with you Hades. He is probably the hero of the prophecy and you could train him. We both know our father is rising, even if our brother is too naïve and arrogant to notice."
Hestia then looked up, "Hades I know how much you miss Nico and Bianca. This could really help you. Plus maybe Perseus could go get them out of that Damn Casino in a couple of years." Hestia said thoughtfully.
Hades wore a thoughtful expression and then got a crazy look in his eyes.
"I do not want you adopting him just to get back at Zeus and to anger him. I want you to do this for Perseus."
"Persephone will never let him live with us." Hades Exclaimed.
Hestia smiled a warm smile, "Actually I believe she'd be happy to have a son that isn't yours with another woman." Hestia said with a smile.
"I also want to make him my champion, my first ever." Hestia said happily.
Hades sighed, "okay ill bring Perseus down to the underworld. Hestia you go to Olympus and make sure Persephone is okay with this. You will both be able to travel into my domain as much as you want now, and whenever you want." Hades said as they turned back to Perseus.
Perseus eyes bugged out as he saw Poseidon disappear into mist.
Hades walked up to Perseus slowly and knelt down, "Perseus how would you like to become my son." He said gently.
Perseus wore a thoughtful expression, "Deal" he said.
Hades was so shocked when Perseus hugged him, he almost didn't hug back.
Hestia looked on with a smile, her champion and the one to defeat their father would be a great warrior. She broke out of her thoughts and frowned a bit.
"I have to go but I will see you soon Perseus. Bye brother." she said sadly.
Hades gave her a nod.
Perseus ran and gave her a big hug. Then he said with big watery eyes, "Please come back soon, unlike my old daddy."
Hestia's heart broke a bit when she heard the disappointment in his voice, "Ill come see you everyday Perseus, I swear on the river Styx." She said as thunder rumbled in the distance.
He nodded and stepped back. Hades walked up with a slight smile and covered young Perseus' eyes as Hestia teleported away.
He then turned to Perseus with a smile, "How would you like to come see your new home Perseus?" he said excitedly.
Percy turned to him with a slight smile, "I would love to Dad" he said with just as much excitement.
If one were to look they'd have seen the slightest of smiles on Hades face and a tear in his left eye as they teleported to the underworld.
