Jason POV
So this was Percy Jackson he looked just like the pictures, I could sense the power, but it felt odd like the sea wasn't a friend.
Speaking of friends it was interesting to see everyone, especially Reyna we had something once, but I knew that I was in love with Piper I just couldn't tell her.
"So your Thalia's brother?" I nodded.
Percy looked at me for a minute then said "I can see the family resemblance between all three of you guys". Wait three?
"What do you mean?" He was smiling looking at the river then he said; "it's in the eyes you and your sister have your dad's eyes, the ones full of electricity."
This was the first time ever someone talked about my dad. Thalia never talked about him.
"You've meet my dad." he nodded "a few times."
I knew we should be talking about the end of the world, but I wanted to know something about my dad.
"What's he like?"
Percy looked uncomfortable "maybe you should ask your sister."
Why won't anyone tell me about him. I know he may not be the nicest God but both Thalia and Percy have risked their lives for him, but they still won't talk about him.
"She won't tell me and why won't you I mean what did he do?"
"Nothing" I knew that was a lie, but he kept talking'; "It's just I'm a son of Poseidon, he doesn't like me on principle. My relationship with him hasn't been the best, but I guess I could tell you my impression; he is a powerful god for sure, he likes to be right and um.. he does care about his children, if you really need him then he will be there like all gods" I guess that was comforting.
"But why do you guys not get along; you basically saved Olympus."
He smiled "that's the problem I was right while the Olympians were fighting the diversion, we all were fighting the real threat at first they were grateful, but afterward they grew resentful. Zeus wants to prove that they don't need demigods, that they can fight their own battles not let their kids do it for them."
My dad can't think like that can he but then again he did close Olympus
"I'm sure he will change his mind because we will change it when we prove that we are a family".
He looked at me as if he was trying not to hurt my feelings " well then how are we going to change his mind?" I wanted Percy to believe me because otherwise I had no idea what to do.
He has been a part of Gods lives he know them "you are Jason. This is your quest you can change his mind while I will in his mind always be the one who insulted his gifts."
Mmh I always wondered if I would lead this quest until I heard all about the things Percy had done I thought I had a tough life but wow.
I don't get him at all this is shot at being even greater then he already is he would be the ultimate demigod.
"Why don't you want to lead the quest you have way more experience fighting powerful things I mean I thought one titan was hard but Kronos is the ultimate test." he smiled.
"That's just it I have survived one prophecy I made it to sixteen against all odds, but what makes you think my luck will hold, you on the other hand have a shot so when I die you can finish this off."
Wow he doesn't sound afraid or resentful of dying he said it as if he thought about it a lot and was ok with it.
"Percy I just meet you but really do you think anyone will let you die that easily have the past seven months shown you anything it's that your friends have your back" he smiled and started to make the water move.
"Yah but you're the son of Zeus or Jupiter which makes you the obvious choose plus you've had seven months to prepare" urg I hate that people think I deserve things just because of my dad people think I deserve special treatment or else my dad will smite them or something.
"It doesn't matter who my dad is you should get that better the anyone" he laughed "but you get use to it you can't change it even though your related to annoying sensitive lightning carrying jerk."
Wow I had never heard people talk about a god like that but Percy said as if he was describing an annoying relative.
I couldn't help but laugh until the flash of lightning almost hit us.
