OK guys here is the third chapter, I'll try to upload faster but i got college and work so sorry for the delay anyways stay tuned for my next three stories that i will lunch simultaneously along with keeping up this one.
Another thing yes Hestia is a virgin goddess but she Addopted Percy to help Poseidon and Athena because she thought that Percy needed a mother's love and while Athena my train the boy she wont love him.
Tyson is more of a teenager to help make the story a bit more funnier and when i picture him his this sarcastic kid but fun and loving.
Chapter 3
The silence that followed my declaration was as if I had said that I eat little kids for breakfast. Then the loudest thunder in the history shook the very earth guess Zeus didn't like that one bit, I couldn't help but grin.
Each of them had different reactions to my announcement. The blonde girl look at me sharply those gray eyes going a hundred miles per second calculating every angle and possibility of what I just said as she took the knife from my hand.
The blonde dude who was clearly the oldest just glared at me as if I ran over his mother which in retrospect it should be glaring at them since there mommy dearest had done that to me countless times.
While the other the brown hair girl who was the daughter of the war god just laugh at my face.
"Yeah right, and I'm the daughter of Artemis. Prissy the Big Three vowed never to have demigods since WWII so you're obviously lying your ass off."
I glared at her; I really hated people making fun of me since Athena did that on a daily basis.
"Listen kid we are thankful that you saved us and all but you don't have to lie to us as Clarisse said the Big swore off having kids."
You know I could have dealt with a lot but his tone of superiority just itch me in the wrong place. I was hoping to be polite and help them out but guess that wasn't meant to be.
"Yeah and Zeus fell off the wagon how many years ago genius? Tell me and then what happen Hades killed my cousin just because she was born, Thalia didn't deserve her fate. My father didn't want the same fate happening to me so he hid me in the sea. I'm many things but a liar is not one of them." Thunder rumbled the skies at the mention of the gods' names.
The name Thalia shook them, but the one whose reaction startled me was the blonde girl her eyes widen and then she closed up completely.
"How do you know that story?" She asked me.
I look at her directly in the eyes, green on gray to let her know I wasn't lying. "When it happen I was with my mother and father we saw when she fell into battle, I wanted to help her but my father wouldn't let me saying that I would just killed myself. Then Zeus turned her into a tree. We held a funeral for her, burned her shroud at sea."
My hands hurt for some reason then I look down and they were bleeding, I had closed my fist in my anger that I cut myself. Tyson looked and mutter something like 'idiot' before tossing the canteen full of nectar and I spray a little in my hands the cuts healing at once.
She looked like she believed me. "I'm Annabeth Chase daughter of Athena, this is my older brother Malcolm and that's Clarisse daughter of Ares thank you for saving us but why were you there."
I sat down and grab a couple of sandwiches and started passing them. "Here if we are going to talk at least let be over food."
I handed them bottles of water too, that mom made me packed. "Dad told me that your camp is in trouble that the borders around the camp are failing which means that something happen to my cousin's tree. He also said that you were going to the Sea of Monsters to get the Golden Fleece to save your camp. That tree is all that's left of my cousin and I'll rot in Tartarus before I fail her again." The room got colder at the mention of the darkest part of the underworld.
Malcolm scoffed at me. "If you wanted to help your family so bad as you say where were you when Zeus's master bolt and Hades' helm of darkness were stolen last year and war was eminent. We had to go to the underworld to bargain with Hades and fought Luke the guy you met at the boat to get them back."
I glared at him then laugh. "Are you really that stupid? You sure you're Athena's son? Think about it for a moment Zeus's Master bolt was stolen and Hades' helm my dad was blame by Zeus because of what happen before. If I had suddenly showed up Zeus would have blasted me to bits before I even bowed to him. And then there would be a three way war between them, Dad thought best if I didn't interfere besides you three save Olympus so don't come whining to me."
Annabeth look at her brother. "Malcolm his right you know, Zeus would have shoot first and ask questions later and from the sound of that thunder before he isn't too happy that Percy is even here."
Clarisse glared at them. "I don't care about what happen before princess, but why would you be of any help to us? Have you had any training?"
I look at her and laid my head against the wall. "Yes I have training as you saw when I battle your traitor friend Luke. And how can I help you ask, simple I know the Sea of Monsters better than anyone on earth except my dad since I have live there my whole life."
They look at me like I was nuts so I explain. "Where else would have my father protected me from his brothers, the seas are his domains including the Sea of Monsters."
Clarisse wasn't convinced. "Now I know you're lying Prissy."
"My name is Percy anyways I don't care I you believe where I come from but I'm here to help."
Malcolm pointed his sandwich at my brother. "And him?"
"What about him? He's my brother, you know a Cyclops, dad got lovey dovey for nature spirit and they had Tyson. Strong, fire-proof and one of the best weapons smith ever."
"I won't travel with a Cyclops no matter what the gods say." Annabeth suddenly said and I couldn't help but look at her something in her eyes told me that she was afraid of something she notice me looking then closed up.
"Well tough break because where Percy goes I go. Now let's get some sleep before heading out tomorrow." Tyson growled he really didn't like missing his sleep so he put his bag behind his head and fell asleep snoring right away making the whole shelter tremble.
"Guys get some sleep ok, I'll take first watch" I said as I got up and walked outside but before I went out I looked at them. "Don't kill my brother please he's the only one I have."
I walked outside and scoped the place and climbed a tree setting Riptide on my lap keeping an eye on the place. It was quiet for the first two hours of the night but then I heard a sound coming from behind me, I slipped down and try to sense my way in the darkness that's when I saw the shadow of someone.
I took out Riptide and put it at the back of the shadow. "Don't move or I'll give another hole to breathe out of."
"Really Seaweed brain is that the best you can come up with?"
I knew that voice. "Annabeth what in Hades are you doing here? I could have killed you."
She snorted. "Please Percy I've been watching you since you got out and holed up in that tree like a squirrel."
I capped Riptide and put the pen in my pocket then went back to the tree. "So I'm guessing you wanted to talk about something without your annoying overprotective brother?"
She laughed and nodded walking towards me. "I wanted to thank you for what you did back there on the boat if you had not come well it would have been difficult for us to get away."
"Don't thank me I don't like it, but you're welcome."
"So what's it like living in the Sea of Monsters?"
I sigh and looked at her green on gray. "It's different; I don't know how to explain it. I have lived there my whole life so I don't have anything to compare it to. But sometimes it felt great but others it's like I was in a golden cage."
She nodded as if she understood the feeling even though I never said that to anyone not even Tyson.
"I mean mom is great and she takes care of both me and Tyson even though we are not her real sons and of course dad is awesome even thought his wife Amphitrite doesn't know about me or otherwise it would be another immortal after my skin."
Annabeth gave me a strange look. "Who is your mother?" she asked genuinely curious.
"My mom is…" A sharp sound was heard around us and we stood up faster than we could blink standing back to back she with her knife and me with Riptide.
