Sally Jackson was sad
Here she was in her run down apartment beer cans strewn about with potato chips littering the worn carpet.
She could feel it as she watched her twins-Naruto, and Percy Jackson.
They were her pride and joy.
Naruto had blond hair and blueish gold eyes that seemed to sparkle like the sun and whisker marks that many of the female affliction would call adorable. he was at the moment fighting with his younger twin by about a minute.
Percy had messy black hair and sea-green with gold flecks eyes that seemed to ripple with the waves.
When they were older they going to be lady killers.
But she knew she wouldn't see that day.
At age Nineteen Sally Jackson was diagnosed with cancer.
At Age twenty she met poseidon and a month later apollo. Being able to see through the mist she knew who poseidon was immediately… After all how many people walk through new york with a trident?
Apollo was different as she was in the hospital already and a doctors outfit was quite common. she remained clueless till the day he healed someone in front of her hoping the mist would prevent her from seeing.
But even in her short time being with them she fell in love… she drowned in it and she cried in it.
She loved them more than there are people on the planet.
She loved them and she knew they were gods...but she didn't tell them that.
They were there when she laughed, they were there when she cried, they were there when she was close to death.
They had years earlier learned of the other's love for her… and decided it didn't matter as long as she was happy.
So on the day she was on death's door… literally she could see thanatos in the hospital door. They decided to do something stupid… very stupid.
5 years ago sally Jackson age twenty four new york hospital.
"Well it seems my time is up" *sigh* she said as the monitor showing her heart beat began to speed up significantly. Another monitor began beating erratically showing her oxygen intake was going down.
Sighing again she closed her eyes waiting for thantos to take her… when the doors burst open revealing the two people she really wanted to see.
"Hello Poseidon, Apollo hows the weather?"
Her only answer was surprised gasps.
She could only look on with a deadpan expression.
"Oh come on how many people walk around with a trident in hand and a sun chariot in their pocket."
Nine month later she had two twins… as Apollo and Poseidon had used a blood ritual to give her children and apollo being the god of healing and all. Made it so people who had his child had an increase in health.
Using the blood of poseidon in the ritual as well resulted in kick starting the process ten fold.
In the end she was as healthy as she was when she was nineteen giving her five years until she died.
In the end though being with gabe probably shortened that by a good month or two but in the end if it protected her children she would do it no matter the consequences.
Although she knew she was going to die didn't mean she knew how.
For all she knew it could be from a piano falling on her head… but little did she know it would be much worse… much much worse.
He ran… and ran… and ran. Farther away-He had to get Percy farther away from… from that PLACE! he thought with disgust.
Gabe had taken it too far… he had hit her a little to hard this time and he had paid for it with his life.
Pulling his percy a little higher to his back he started moving again. His hands were covered in blood and his little brothers were stained just as much. But that was it he was going to make sure his brothers hand were clean of any other wrongdoing
He was Naruto Jackson son of apollo and he would protect his sibling no matter how close their birth was… For an older sibling was the one who protected the other-not who acted older or more responsible. it was who protected the other the most.
