Okay, hi guys. I know it's been awhile. I think I have a legit excuse though. I had this chapter done a week or two ago on my Microsoft Surface. I left on a desk near a window (this happened far from home at a friends house) and then we went out. When I came back Mike (the name of my Microsoft Surface) was soaking wet because it had rained. I lost everything which really sucked. My dad bought a new one but I had to rewrite this chapter. So, here it is. And I'm sorry if it sucks, I wasn't really paying attention to what I was reading. Enjoy.

Poseidon is squeezing the life out of Percy's hand almost as tight as he was squeezing Annabeth's skinny pale one. Percy harshly pulled his hand out of Poseidon's but kept his grasp on Annabeth. He didn't want her getting lost, now did he? He figured that he probably didn't smell much better than Annabeth all because of Smelly Gabe. And for the record, Annabeth stunk. Of course he didn't voice this out loud. A comment like that can result in one pissed off female. Passerby's on the street are giving Poseidon weird looks, probably due to the fact that two not so clean children are following him. Although, there weren't many people out seeing as it's nighttime. Percy wrinkled his nose. Again, all of a sudden, it smells like some sort of tropical beach. Its been happening ever since Poseidon and he found Annabeth. Percy thought Poseidon might've smelled it too because his eyebrows burrow for a second but then Poseidon begins to swat the air.

"Stupid fly." He slapped his hands together through the air.

Percy rolled his eyes, "Dad, where are we going? And why are walking so fast?" Percy had to run a bit to catch up to his father's pace.

"Please Percy, don't call me by your father." Poseidon insisted. "Hades could be anywhere right now, watching us."

"He's your dad?" Annabeth asked. "Figures, you look exactly alike. Same hair, same eyes...So if he's your dad-"

Poseidon stopped and turned, "You might as well shout it out! We all know I'm Percy's dad so stop mentioning it!" Poseidon yelled. He stormed down the grey sidewalk.

"Smooth move, Annabeth," Percy snickered.

"Shut up." The two kids quickly caught up to Poseidon.

"Well, well Poseidon," a voice purred.

Annabeth and Percy looked around confused while Poseidon simply sighed. A man walked out from a shadow and when he said that he didn't mean the way Athena did. He literally peels off the wall.

"Whoa! Cool, you've got to show me that!" Percy yelled, grinning.

Annabeth smiled, "that would be a good disguise. Wait, why were you on the wall? We're you spying?"

"Yes Hades, please tell." Poseidon glared daggers.

"Oh, I think you and I both know Poseidon. All I needed was the icing on the cake and I got it. And it was deeeeelicious."

Creep. That was Hades? He was wearing a midnight black suit with a matching tie as if he was going to a meeting in the dark and was told to try and not be seen. Maybe it had to do with the whole peeling off walls thing. His black hair was combed neatly and he was very pale.

"Hades, what will it take for you to stay quiet?" Poseidon sighed.

Hades smiled evilly and surprisingly, he had perfect white teeth. "Brother, I too have children," Hades began.

Poseidon sighed in relief, "Why would you tell me that? You're giving more blackmail then I can handle."

"Please brother, you didn't think I was that ignorant, did you?"

"Well..." Poseidon muttered under his breath.

"Silence!" Hades demanded.

Percy and Annabeth both burst out laughing, "Jeez. You sound like a two year old," Percy giggled. "'Silence!'" he boomed.

Annabeth wiped a tear away when she saw the god of the underworld glaring at them, "Its true, though!" she defended.

Hades look enraged, "You dare anger a god?"

Annabeth curled her fingers and put a dangerous look on her face, "'You dare anger a god?'" she roared.

Percy doubled over laughing, "That was good."

"Tha—"

Hades mockingly laughed, "Hehehe, so hilarious." Then there was a loud boom and a poof and they were gone.

"Hades, bring them back," Poseidon demanded.

"Why should I?"

Poseidon shook his head and smirked. "First of all, you have to admit it was god. And, I didn't think I'd have to remind you of this, but—"

"Stop, stop." Hades looked mostly angry but there was a hint of fear in his eyes. "I'll bring them back."

"I thought so."

He summoned them back and barley acknowledged them before he started speaking. "Bianca and Nico were born mere years before Zeus declared that stupid oath. The one where us three can't have children. To think, he was the first one to break it."

Annabeth immediately spoke up, "So this Zeus guy has a child as well? And you guys aren't supposed to have kids?" Annabeth asks. Without clarification she turned to Percy. "Haha, you're not supposed to be alive!" Annabeth chanted.

Percy swatted away her hand. "Smart kid. Athena's?" Hades asked. Poseidon shrugged in clarification. "Anyways, years ago Zeus killed Maria with his lightning bolt in a fit of rage. I only had time to shield Nico and Bianca."

Percy frowned, "Were they your pets?"

"No Seaweed Brain, they were his kids!" Annabeth rolls her eyes.

"Seaweed Brain?" Percy cocks his head to the side.

"Duh, cause where your brain is there's seaweed. You are Poseidon, the sea god's kid."

Percy scrunched his eyebrows, obviously confused. "Sea god?"

Annabeth face palms.

"Anyways," Hades continued, "I have hid Bianca and Nico in the Lotus Casino, you know, that place in Las Vegas? I was going to send someone to go pick them up but you showed up. Thus came my brilliant idea. You will go pick them up from the hotel and take them to that terrible camp."

"Terrible camp?" Percy exclaimed, suddenly not wanting to go. "You're taking me to a terrible camp?"

Hades continued, ignoring Percy like Athena had. "They haven't aged yet so they are still nine and seven. Okay?"

"Fine Hades, I'll go get your children. I might as well be starting a daycare!" Poseidon snapped.

Hades black eyes actually brighten. "Thank you."

"And I'm sorry about your pets—I mean children," Percy acknowledged.

"And I'm sorry about your wife and children," Annabeth challenged.

Hades rolled his eyes and left in a black smoke.

"Alright, we're going to set some ground rules," Poseidon announced. "When I say no, I mean it. That also goes for stop it, shut up and don't move. I'll make more as we go along."

"Yes sir!" Percy saluted.

"Don't call me sir."

Percy frowned, "Alright, fine. Hey, Annabeth? Can you explain the whole sea god thing to me? I mean, when I was younger water was cool and all. Oh, especially when we went to Montauk. That place is great. Have you ever—"

"Percy, be quiet." Percy frowned and opened his mouth to retort but instead closed his mouth.

Annabeth looked up at Poseidon, "Thanks."
