Before the Artemis incident.
Annabeth:
This can't be right Percy isn't dead he can be, I thought frantically.
"He's dead because of you!" Nico shouted, "why did you do it he went through hell literally for you!" and that's when Aphrodite broke down crying.
Shooting me a glare Hestia jumped off her throne and ran over to the goddess of love to comfort her. Don't ever make her glare at you it was even scarier than Tartarus 'I can't believe that Seaweed brain gave Hestia and Hades back their throne,' I thought before I snapped my attention back to Poseidon who was shaking his head and muttering under his breath before looking at me with cold hard eyes then he turned to Zeus.
"Brother I need to tell Sally about this," he said and that made my breath hitch. Oh my gods I forgot about Percy's mom! She's going to kill me and mom and dad are going to agree with her.
"I'll come with you to help break the news," Hestia said standing up from her throne and both of them flashed away.
Turning back to talk to Thalia and saw that Nico was comforting her since she started crying and when I tried to get close to the both of them Nico shadow traveled them to the base of Artemis's throne and let the hunters care for her before going back to the underworld.
Great now Nico hates me as well, I thought as I walked to the elevator.
"I'm greatly disappointed in you Annabeth," I heard my mother call out after me.
"I know mother," I called back as the doors closed behind me. Hailing a taxi I arrived at the Jackson's household pretty quickly. At lease Percy made sure his family was happy, I thought as I remembered how he wanted his mom and step dad to have an actual house to live in. Mustering upy courage I rang the doorbell. Then I came face to face with a very angry Sally Jackson.
"Awe you Annabeth?" A little boy around 4 years old asked me. Percy's little brother and he's blessed by Poseidon, I realized.
"Yeah," I responded.
"You'we a big meanie you know I don't want you to come neaw my mommy and daddy ow (or) else," he said before running back into the house.
"Are you going to tell me why you did this to my son?" Sally asked angrily.
"I'm soo sorry I didn't mean to break his heart like that it's just-" I left the sentence hanging.
"It's just what Chase?" Sally shot back.
"I thought he left me to go on a quest and was never going to come back," I finished.
"Percy would never do that he loved you and you know his fatal flaw is loyalty so breaking his heart is just throwing him in Styx!" Sally shouted at me making me flinch at her words.
"Sally?" Paul called from inside, "who is it?"
"No one specifically," Sally said as she turned around to face her husband.
"Annabeth?" Paul asked in mild surprise, "now is not the best time."
"What is she doing here?" Someone sneered from behind me.
Turning around I see four teens two girls and two guys the youngest about 16 and the oldest about 19.
"Hello there please come inside," Paul said cheerfully as he and Sally stepped aside.
"Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Blofish," said the edest girl in the group.
"Yeah and sorry were late one of the twins *cough* Sophia *cough* injured her- I mean their knee," the eldest guy answered.
So the other two are twins, I thought and watched as the four dissappear into the house.
"Oh and if this answers your question Percy called us and told us what happened so be glad that I can't beat you up for what you did," one of the twins I identified as Sophia said as she glared at me.
"Sophie!" Percy's little brother shouted as he ran up to her.
"Hey bite size," she said ruffling his hair as they dissappeared into the depth of the house.
"Who are they?" I asked.
"Percy's cousins," Sally responded, "he never got to meet them in person though," then as if she remembered who she was talking to she looked at me with sorrow filled eyes, "is that all you have to say?"
"Yeah I'll leave," I said turning around and started making my way down the street to the subway.
Percy:
"Hey mom," I said dropping my disguise.
"Percy!" She said an threw her arms around my neck.
"Big bwother!" little Harry shouted.
"Aww he's soo cute," Lia said sitting down.
"Mom before you ask Poseidon disowned me and Zues adopted me as on of his sons," I said and began to explain the events that lead up to where I am now, "so these are me brothers and sisters."
Sally:
"Oh well it nice how you found a new family but can you introduce me to them?" I asked.
"Right," Percy said snapping out if this trance and pointed to the oldest of the group, the girl with light brown hair, "that's Stella," then to the blonde haired boy, "Jay," and then to the black haired girl playing with Harry, "and Liara."
"Hi," Liara said and turned to face Harry, "what's your name?"
"My name is Hawwy," Harry answered.
Hmm, I thought, she seems to like to play with children.
"Are you all adopted?" I asked.
"No Jay and I are not but Lia is," Stella said.
"I was a daughter of Hades," Lia said, "which would explain my hair and eyes and I had a twin bother but he sacrificed himself to save me from a monster so I could run and get help but with an injured knee I didn't make it far before a cyclops caught up with me. Then a flash of light lit up the clearing and the next thing I knew I was standing behind Hades with the master bolt pointed at us," Lia stopped and took a deep breath before continuing her story, "I knew then who my dad was and made a deal with Zeus I said, 'if I agree to become one of your daughters then will I be able to live?' With a short silence he agreed instantly."
"So do you still visit-" I trailed off.
"Yeah even now and then," Lia said, "besides it's a lot more fun when I get to beat death breath in Mythomagic."
"He still plays?" Perch asked in surprise.
"Yeah."
"Oh that reminds me Nico is coming over to visit," I said, "I kind of adopted him after the war with Gaea.
Sorry for the long wait I got this whole week off so I can try to get another chapter up asap.
