In this story im going to tell you some things but first I need to explain how I got there you see first things first im a demigod, son of Poseidon god of the seas and mortal women Sally Jackson, My name is Perseus jackson hero of olympus, one of the seven and a bunch of other stuff that I don't care to name right now and until a few months ago I was a part of a large dramatic and happy family of people like me with my girlfriend Annabeth by my side as co-leaders of camp half blood however after the last war with the giants a new demigod showed up at camp half blood with an army of hellhounds chasing him at least 50 all running at full sprint in an effort to kill the apparently glowing teen as soon as it looked like one would catch up a bow would materialize in his hand and he would swat the thing back just barely giving himself the time to escape I quickly analyzed the situation and leaped down the hill uncapping riptide and slicing through the hellhounds nearest to the boy and quickly stabbing and slashing at another two soon enough I saw arrows start to kill the ones who filled in the quickly closing circle around me I looked back and saw the boy aiming his bow over my shoulder killing a hellhound who had managed to sneak up on me I gave him a stiff nod and turned back to the fight rolling slashing and stabbing until there were none left I looked up from the mounds of golden dust to see the boy who I could now tell to have dirty blonde hair and sky blue eyes a rural tan a strong enough figure it wasn't hard to tell who's child he was given his weapon and appearance.
"Thanks for the help back there."
"No problem man, im Percy, what's your name?.
"Brian, what is this place"
"Camp half blood." I said "Come on lets get you washed up its almost time for dinner."
in the weeks after brian was claimed as a son of Apollo and quickly became a good friend of mine I taught him swordsmanship and he gave me some tips on how to shoot better he became well renowned in camp for his skill in battle as after a week or two only Annabeth and I could beat him one on one and with his tutorage I actually mad progress in archery to the point that I would only miss the bullseye by a few inches most of the time however after a month at camp Brian was found dead in his cabin with a long slash wound across his stomach and the floor around him soaked with water, as much as I told them I hadn't the camp seemed convinced that I was his killer and the gods with them all but Hestia turned against me and after a few days my trial was set many wanted me killed for his death but the gods declared that I would be shown a single mercy for the deeds I had done for them, I was to be banished I was given two hours to pack and another to leave new york on the oath that I would never come back. and so I did I packed my belongings and called blackjack to me as he was the only one besides hestia to believe me I loaded him up and we flew wordlessly to my mothers apartment only to find a pit of smoking rubble and a few firemen who explained that lightning had struck the buildings exposed gas maine on the roof destroying the complex without any warning there were no survivors as I began to feel tears well in my eyes I saw a flash of light coming from an alleyway nearby I sprinted there and uncapped riptide rage at the god who did this filling me and clouding my mind I wan at the figure and held them by the front of their coat even in my rage I recognized the goddess before me.
"Hestia" I said quietly setting her on her feet and feeling the rage simmer into sadness as I dropped to my knees and started to sob I felt as my body started to shake the goddesses arms wrap around me enveloping me in a warmth and eventually a fire that didn't burn I looked up and in the flames I saw the memories of me giving hestia the pythos in the titan war and me fighting Kronos me and Annabeth falling into tartarus and landing in the cocyotus and fighting the goddess of poison and finally watching Leo hurl himself into the sky to defeat Gaea once more. After the memories played out the fire slowly put itself out and I was looking at Hestia's soft amber eyes filling me with hope as she spoke.
"Perseus, the others have betrayed you even now they feel their anger growing towards you you will soon find that your father has remove his power from your body but left your scent as strong as ever with your permission I would like to make you my champion and give you the power you will need to survive."
I looked at her in shock before bowing my head, "I would be honored to accept my position as your champion, Lady Hestia." suddenly I was pulled into a tight hug and felt the fire once again cover me in warmth I felt my eyes start to burn as they burst into bright blue flames as Hestia pulled a way the flames extinguished and I found that my black hair had turned brown and by eyes had turned a slightly darker amber than Hestia's I could no longer feel the cold air around me still enveloped in a comforting warmth.
"You have my abilities over fire you can conjure, throw, and control fire as you could with you water powers with the added ability of something called flame traveling, it allows you to travel from one fire to another but as you can conjure fire anywhere you can imagine all you must do is start a fire next to you and and another where you want to go and then imagine yourself walking out of the fire on the other side while stepping into the one next to you you can take others with you but the more you take the more energy it will take to do so. And finally hope you can both provide and take away hope for others all you need to do for this is look into their souls by focusing on the heat coming off of them and when you see it you can either give them hope or take it away."
"Thank you Lady Hestia I will use your gifts wisely."
"It was my honor Perseus but there is one thing I need you to do."
"Anything my lady" I say I can feel that this will take a while.
"I need you to go to Beacon Hills and find Scott Mccall he will need you help within the next few years."
