Perseus's POV
A child was huddled in a corner as his drunk step father keep hitting him with a belt, terrified, praying to every Greek god and goddess he knew but mainly Poseidon and Hestia for they were the kindest. Now you are probably wondering where his mum was, well he was shot by his step father when he was 5 years old. This continued on for an hour before a bright flash resonated from the door turning his step father's attention from him to the door. After a while the door burst open and there stood two people in armour with a trident and the other with flames dancing like people over her hand. His step father (an/his name will be Gabe because I only thought it was right to continue with his family) says with a threatening growl in her throat "Who are you and get out of my house"
"Well we are –"
"Poseidon and Hestia" I croak sounding like I was dying because well I was, I had lost a lot of blood
They turned to me than back to Gabe and glared at him with all the fury in the world.
"We have come for the child that you were abusing by the looks of it"
"Thank you" I manage to gargle out through the blood pooled in my mouth passing out as Gabe was stabbed in the chest by Poseidon.
I jolted awake to see 14 gods I am guessing, standing around me looking at me with worry and curiosity in their eyes.
"Where am I? "I ask shakily filled with curiosity in my voice
A women with silver eyes and auburn hair and goes to touch me, I flinch instinctively away from her hand. She seems shocked when this happens with worry going through her beau- wow hold on don't think like that my brain scolds me. She replies with one word sounding hurt "Olympus" I freeze "What?" I say confused this can't be Olympus it's not possible I think "Yes it is" I hear from Poseidon who is on my other side.
"What is your name young one" ask I guy in a suit that says 'BIG EGO' not literally but he seems it act like it.
"J-Jacob" I stutter
"Zeus leave him alone he was severely injured by that vile beast"
"Ha probably punishment because he is a ma-"
"SHUT UP! I did not deserve it, he shot my mum when 5 years old because she was a minute late home then bashed me with a baseball bat for a week and I can't go to school because of all the broken bones and slashes from the abuse so please don't say I deserve it because of a stupid prejudice that you have Lady Artemis"
Everyone was stunned to silence from my out burst of fury. So I flinch again when she raises her hand and scurry of the bed and out the window which was a mistake because I fell off Olympus towards the ocean.
