Percy is now 5

Triton's POV

Where could that kid be?

I swim down the hall I had seen him last, knowing he was hiding from me and dad not wanting to go back to Olympus yet.

"Percy! Percy! You had better come out right now or I'll make sure Hades gives Bubbles to Cerbes for a chew toy!" I taunt my little brother with his favorite stuffed animal, a stuffed sea turtle, in my hands.

"No! Bubble mine not Cerby's! " he squeals running out from one of the many closets that always seem to have a random collection of his toys if they were unlocked.

Laughing I grab him around the waist picking him up as he kicks and screams in protest.

"You tricked me!" he squeals again hitting my arm with a force that makes me drop him in shock. Giggling he grabs Bubbes from the floor and takes off running again. I exam in my arm where he had smacked me and to my surprise I don't find a little red hand print. The little dork had electricuted me without even touching me.

Irritated I head doan the halls quickly in search of my father. He can handle the little tazmanean tear. Ever sense Percy had found out he had some control over the water, electricity and fire a couple of weeks ago he has been endlessly playing with it and at times it got out of control. He has burned Hermes, electricuted Ares and now me and made Dyonisis's drink Diet Coke explode all over him. My dad can handle this one. I do not want to even imagine what Percy could do if angry or his abilites grow even a little stronger. He doesn't do it on purpose and I don't think he even realizes he hurts people, but just wait until he gets dad, Hades or Zeus. There defiantly be change in his use of abilities then.

"Did you find him? I have to get to Olympus in the next ten minutes." Dad greets me as he finishes packing a bag for Percy's stay in Olympus and mentally prepares himself for the Winter Soliste.

"Oh I found him. He zapped me and took off again." I reply rubbing my arm where I can still feel electricity running up down my arm.

"You let a 5 year old zap you and then get away?" he asks me grinning.

"He's out of control! Dad you're gonna have to go get him. He's got zap and fire fingers, I'm not worried about the water but he's taking things to far." I reply shaking my head.

My dad rolls his eyes and heads off in search of a Percy.

Poseidon's POV

He's a toddler with a little electricity in his finger tips not some wild hellhound!

"Percy! We have to go!" I yell walking down the halls in search of my young son looking under and in anything he could be hiding in.

A small bare foot that is sticking out from under a pile of dirty sheets catches my attention. I can hear giggles as I draw near. I grab the foot in my hand tickling him making him erupt into giggles.

"Daddy! No!" he laughs as I pull him out from the sheets and carry him back towards the thrown room.

"We need to get to Olympus Percy I have a meeting. Plus don't you want to see Apollo, Aphrodite and the others?" I ask holding him on my hip.

"No! I want to stay here and play with the fishies!" he protests kicking my thigh. Another thing Percy has discovered is that he can talk to the sea creatures and that they will do pretty much anything he says. To say he enjoys it would be an understatement. A sudden jolt goes through me making me eyes go wide realizing he had just zapped me!

"PERSEUS!" I yell at him giving him a narrowed eye glare, the same look I have alwaysngiven him when he's in trouble.

" Ah oh." he replies his eyes going wide.

Without another second of hesitation I spin him around so that he is in my arm and I hold him still as I give him 10 quick sharp swats on the bottom making him cry out.

"You do not zap people! Percy that is very naughty!" I inform him before placing him back on my hip and continue to carry him down the hall well taking Bubbles a way from his little grasps.

"Bubble?" he asks looking at his sea turtle with tear filled eyes.

"I will make sure Aunt Hera gives you him back after dinner but not until then. You do not use your abilities like that." I inform him kissing him lightly on the head.

"Sowey daddy. I not do it any more." he promises wiping tears from his eyes.

Triton grins at me as I grab it Percy's bag and teleport to Olympus.

"Go to you're room Perseus. Don't come out till I come in to say good bye. Go ahead and play." I tell him giving him his bag as he heads to his room.

Bubbles?" he asks smiling at me hopfuly.

"Perseus..." I give him a glare and he looks down shamefully.

"Sowey." he apologizes before taking off running to his room clearly deciding to get out of my reach in case I decided to spank him again.

I tuck away his stuffed sea turtle letting it disappear till needed later.

"How's Percy?" Athena greets me as we head towards the throne room.

"We need to start thinking about training him soon at least when it comes to his abilities." i reply self consciously rubbing the area he had zapped me. Who knew a 5 year old could have some much power?

Zeus's POV

Part of Percy's existence was we never talk about him in front of anybody outside of the select few that know. That has always meant that his name was to never be brought up in the annuel Solstice meetings.

I could tell by the look in my brother's eyes that something had happened involving Percy. It took everything in me not to ask what had happened. I would never be one to admit it out loud but I have come to care very much for the young boy.

But we have something more pressing than Percy to talk about for the first time in what seems like years.

"I have heard whispers of Kronos rising in the Underwworld." Hades informs us right away.

"I HAVE heard rumors of Gaia's return. What the Hades is going on? Why are they both threatening to return now?" Demeter asks making it cLear we should pay attention to her as well.

"Why would they want to return? Something must be awakening them." Artemis spoke up worried.

"Or somebody's presence?" Athena offers up all of us knowing exactly who she was hinting at, Percy.

We all went quiet for a second.

"We'all have to do an official investigation and make sure they are truly stirring I am not going to get upset over something that might not even be true." I reply.

"Are you calling me a liar?!" Demeter snaps at me her eyes narrowing.

"No I just want to be sure before we all get worked up." I reply quickly losing patience with my sister.

We continue on with the !meeting with the normal bickering and conversation before the Solstice ends and the demigods from the camp leave.

"If Kronos and Gaia are stirring because of Percy's presence we will have to be more cautious with his safety, if they are ever to lay a hand on him it could end badly for us as well as Percy." I speak up getting nods of agreement and understanding.

"We will also have to start training him soon when it comes to his abilities. His abilities are growing and he seems to think its OK to use them on people." Poseidon adds.

"Did he zap youn sea breath?" Athena laughs.

"His abilities are growing and we need to teach him now before his powers are to much for him to even handle and he thinks its OK to use them on us. He is bewong punished right now. One of you will have to give him back this after dinner." Poseidon hands Aphrodite Percy's beloved sstuffed turtle. "He is only showing abilities in water, electricity and fire but its only a matter of time. We will have to be on the look out for any more signs of new abilities. "

"That won't be hard he clearly likesnto show them off." Hermes laughs.

I couldn't help but crack a smile at that, no matter what Percy has always managed to make us all smile. He really is bringing us together.
