EDITED (read note at the end)

Hello Fanfiction, This is the first chapter of my first fanfic i'm really hyped for this fanfic I've been thinking of writing it for months. I've also noticed that there aren't many good Percy x Reyna (Preyna) fanfics so i'm hoping you guys enjoy this one. Thanks enjoy the chapter.

Percy's POV

I heard the crunch of twigs behind me I tried to urge my legs to move faster, but they didn't respond. I didn't know what to do. This 1-eyed monster would be on me within seconds if I didn't do something. I felt Nausea from lack of food, I hadn't eaten in what 1, 2 days? My entire body ached all over, I was moving on pure adrenaline, I needed a rest, in the last 2 weeks I had slept a max of 20 hours, mostly 1-2 hour naps in random spots. So is this how I would die? I feel like I've failed myself and my Mom, the only person I ever loved. I'd never met my dad, when I was younger my mother told me he was lost at sea. My Mom died in a car accident when I was 4, I was in the car with her but I somehow survived with nothing more than a few cuts.

After that I had been taken into foster care. At first I was just another orphan among many, but things changed, everywhere I went bad things would occur. People said I was a curse, not many wanted me in their homes, and some just plain hated me. I was bullied at the orphanage everyone hated me or feared me, I had no friends. To sum it up life sucked. I'm 8 now, 2 weeks ago I finally decided to run away. Even though I'm dead tired and on the verge of death I don't regret running away… Well maybe a little but that's not important.

All this passed through my head in about 10 seconds. I was starting to slow down, the monster was now only a few meters behind. I didn't want to die yet, I wanted to at least live a while maybe actually have a friend or 2. I felt my eyes water, what a wimp I thought to myself, I was crying, my vision was now blurry just making it harder for me, 1 faulty step and I would trip over a root. I heard the monster maybe only 2 meters behind me, I looked up and couldn't believe my eyes. Just a little ahead there was a clearing with two men arguing. Both gave out an aura of authority 1 slightly more than the other. They could help I thought, or they could be monsters… I'd have to take this risk, I had no choice so with my last bit of strength I sprinted into the clearing giving out a strangle yelp before passing out.

LINE BREAK

I woke up in a rather comfortable bed inside a large tent, I heard voices outside and was instantly on full alert. I tip-toed to the door as quietly as I could. "Come on uncle he's innocent give him a chance!"

I had to strain my ears to hear the other man's voice because it was a lot quieter "It doesn't matter both my brothers have broken the oath they made me swear with them, and this boy is living proof of the fact" he said quietly but angrily.

"Well what they did was wrong but it wasn't the boys fault" he seemed to hesitate before he said "Imagine what would happen if you adopted him, he is probably the child of the prophecy, you could train him to be the best warrior possible, representing the court of hades and I would train him to be as awesome as me!"

The other man seemed to ponder this for a while before sighing and saying "He would be very powerful, what better way to get revenge on Poseidon then turn his own son against him… He is a roman, I will train him before sending him to the roman camp he should rise to Praetor. A son of Neptune representing the court of Hades, he could probably even rescue Nico and Bianca when he is older…" He smiled before adding "He will be the greatest hero of all time, I can feel it. Now, please wake him up Apollo, so I can make my offer to him" I heard what sounded like footsteps coming towards my tent, I instantly rushed to the bed and pretended to be asleep. After a few seconds the tent flap opened and who I guessed was Apollo walked in. Apollo looked young, in his early twenties he had bright blonde hair and bright golden eyes, like little suns.

He started walking towards me and I pretended to wake up with a yawn he looked surprised for a second before he got a big grin on his face and said "Hi I'm Apollo what's your name" seeing my scared look he quickly added " don't worry I'm here to help" For some reason I instantly believed him (Apollo is the god of truth).

So I answered "I'm Percy, Percy Jackson"

"Ok well if you don't mind please follow me, I want you to meet someone"

"Umm okay?" I said shyly

Apollo led me outside and we saw a tall man with olive colored skin, glossy black hair. He was looking towards me watching me carefully. When we reached him he said "Hello child, I am Pluto."

"Uh... Hi I'm Percy, Mr. Pluto" I said holding out my hand.

"Hello Percy, is that short for something?" Pluto said gently

"Yes, my name is actually Perseus but I like people to call me Percy." I said

"Ok then Percy, do you know anything about Greek or Roman Gods?"

"Yes! They're really cool my mom told me about them!" I said remembering the stories my mother would tell me about all the great heroes. She named me Perseus because he was the only hero with a happy ending.

"Well you see, the gods still live today, Apollo and I are gods we are in our Roman forms right now."

"Wait, so you are Pluto like god of the underworld and He is Apollo god of the Sun!"

"Yes young Perseus and your Father is another god an Olympian nonetheless. Would you like to know who he is?"

I contemplated for a second whether or not I really wanted to know but decided there was no harm in knowing which Olympian was my father "Yes please, Mr. Pluto"

"Your father is Neptune god of the seas" I stood there awed at that

"Does that mean I have cool water powers like Theseus and stuff?"

"Yes you do!" He said smiling at my excitement "Now Percy I have an offer for you"

"Yes?"

"Well I would like to adopt you, you would gain all my powers while keeping your fathers, and I would raise you down in the underworld and train you to be the best. You would be the Prince, and Heir to the underworld!"

I froze, had this man, no god just offered to adopt him. Most of his life he had spent with people who either hated or feared him. He had gone family to family home to home but he never really had a place he called his home. This god, Pluto was offering him a new family a new home of course Pluto could end up like the rest hating him, fearing him or even using him but something about Pluto made the offer sound sincere. While Percy was deep in thought contemplating whether or not to accept, Pluto started frowning wondering why the boy hesitated so much. Did he not come off as a nice person? He had been called gloomy and dark before. All these thoughts were immediately replaced with a huge grin as Percy said his next words.

"I accept your offer…" Percy came forward and awkwardly hugged Pluto, the he whispered so quietly Pluto almost missed it "Dad!"

Ok so this chapter has now been edited twice, don't worry if you read 1 of the previous ones this is just more detailed and has less grammatical errors.

So do you like it? I thought it was pretty good. Feel free to give constructive criticism and suggestions
