Chapter 3-Olympus
Athena's POV:
"How could you do this to my son? To your own daughter?" Poseidon yelled. The Gods have been keeping updates on their children quite frequently, so my uncle knew the whole story.
"Because I thought it would make them happy! Have you ever seen a Daughter of Athena and a Son of Poseidon end up together?" I asked. Percy looked so broken when I spoke with him that even I hurt, but I thought he would eventually get over it.
"You know for a Goddess of Wisdom your pretty dumb," he spat. Anger boiled inside of me at being questioned of my intelligence, especially from my enemy.
"How dar-!" I started, but quickly calmed down and looked at things the logical way. As much as I hated to admit it, the Sea God was right. I meddled with our childrens' fate and made them both miserable, I guess I'm not so good with love as I am with war.
"Your right, happy? Now what do we do?" I questioned. If I could break them apart, there must be some way to put them back together.
"We? Oh no, you mean you. You put them in this mess, and you will get them out!" he exclaimed. Poseidon tried to keep his composure but failed miserably, so he just revealed his true form and beamed back to his palace.
"If they were really meant to be then they would find their way back to each other. Right?" I whispered.
"It took me a long time to get them two together. I didn't really appreciate you breaking them up," Aphrodite complained. I could have sworn that the throne room was empty, I guess I really am losing it these days.
"Please help me," I begged. There was no one better suited for the challenge than Aphrodite, if I tried to fix things it would most likely get worse.
"I have interfered with their future enough as it is. If I tried to rebuild what you have broken there's a good possibility that I may make it worse," she stated exasperated. Her eyes glared accusingly at me and they clearly stated that if they don't find their way back to each other she would never forgive me.
What have I done?
I was going to continue with Percy's point of view, but I figured that it would be good for you guys to know why Athena did what she did. Which I never would of thought of without the review from ThePhoenix'sSong, so thank you for that! I love every review I receive, if you have any ideas for the story just let me know! :)
