Chapter 2
A year had come and gone and many had been lost, but Percy had turned 16 and ended the war. He and his friends were now on Olympus receiving rewards. Poseidon watched as the gods congratulated their children and mourned for the loss of others. He then slowly turned to watch his son, who though battle weary and tired, kept turning to look at the daughter of Athena. While the rewards were handed out, Poseidon watched with little interest, until Tyson asked for his stick and Percy was called up. As Zeus offered godhood and the gods voted again, Poseidon watched. He was hardly surprised when Percy turned down the offer for a better deal, making him even prouder to be his father.
The demigods left for camp and Zeus told the gods to stay with the exception of Apollo, who had gone to help his new oracle. As Hades was filled in on what had happened the last year the gods chatted about Percy's refusal. Aphrodite had hardly seemed surprised and started squealing about Percabeth, whatever that was. Zeus finally called order when Apollo arrived.
"On the boy's 18th birthday, we shall turn him into a god no matter what. He will become an Olympian and Hestia will regain a spot and become the 14th."
When Zeus had finished his announcement all the gods went their separate ways to repair the damage of the war.
Poseidon kept watching his son, as he enjoyed camp and school, went on dates with Annabeth and hanging out with his friends. All the other gods had taken interest in Percy's life as well. They even went and checked up on him once and awhile without the boy's knowledge. Hermes even purposely lost his staff to trick Percy into accepting a trip to Paris for an anniversary date with Annabeth. Percy seemed happy and Poseidon wished he could leave him that way but when December arrived it seemed nothing would ever be the same again. Zeus had closed Olympus and forbidden the gods from any contact with their children, but claiming. It seemed that rule wouldn't work because just a few days later Percy was kidnapped. Zeus also seemed distressed by this for some reason. Poseidon was worried, he couldn't find his son anywhere, he was hidden by a god, so he watched Annabeth as she searched. On the third day Annabeth woke up saying she had a dream from a Hera. She took the flying chariot to the Grand Canyon and retrieved three new demigods, a son of Hephaestus, a daughter of Aphrodite and a son of Jupiter. Poseidon started to realize Hera's plan, she had switched out the two camps leaders. So Poseidon kept watch on the wolf house for his son. Finally three months later Percy woke up. Poseidon knew a ship was being built at Camp Half-Blood, to fly to camp Jupiter to retrieve his son but it wouldn't be ready till June. Percy was being subjected to another great prophecy and Poseidon couldn't help wondering how much danger it would put his son in.
Percy proved himself strong to Lupa and began the journey to Camp Jupiter. As Percy traveled across California, Poseidon wished he would come to the ocean, but he knew that wasn't Percy's path. Percy had run into gorgons but luckily his Achilles curse kept him alive. He got to camp and made friends with the daughter of Pluto and the son of mars, who happened to be a descendant of Poseidon. Percy carried Juno across the Little Tiber, losing his invulnerability. He led the fifth cohort to victory in the war games and was granted a quest to Alaska by mars to retrieve the eagle. As he and his friends traveled north, and made friends with Ella the harpy, Arion (another of his sons) the fastest horse to exist, and Iris. They stopped at Franks house where he learnt of his gifts, and Phineas and the harpies lair where Percy drank gorgons blood to get his memories back. They freed Thatanos in Alaska and Percy proved he had become more powerful by pulling up a whole army's worth of Imperial gold weapons. He beat Polybotes and saved camp Jupiter and was voted praetor, just to be retrieved by the Argo II the next day.
