Thank guys for the reviews I wasn't going to post it now but Nathaniel Gabriel Baker, asked so here it is not as good or as long as the other ones.
I do not own PJatO or HoO
Sarsho: yeah I was trying to make Percy embarrassed that he ran into her, he hasn't got any feelings for any of the Olympians in the way that they want. Yeah Aphrodite was jealous, and Persephone is Demeter and Zeus' child, but yeah I'm glad you liked it.
Please Read.
Percy P.O.V
We all walked towards the Empire state building after an uncomfortable train ride that made me want to scream and run around the carriage.
Yep that's right I was in a train carriage with two goddesses and one god.
In case you were wondering it was Ares yep the war god was chaperoning me. It was so much fun.
Not.
Every time someone would walk past the carriage door I'm pretty sure they saw me and Ares having some kind of fight with Persephone and Demeter holding us back.
When we were off the train I had Demeter on one side of me and Persephone on the other with Ares leading. To passer bys we would have seemed like regular group of people walking through New York.
But to me it was hell.
Trying to avoid my fate, But unable to do so, wow pretty deep and meaningful for me. We walked into the empire state building, Ares scaring the tourists out of the elevator as we shoot up to Olympus.
The elevator made everything that much more awkward.
They dragged me through the streets of Olympus with young godlings staring at me with amused grins.
Finally we reached the throne room where we stopped Ares glared at me before walking in.
"Satyr hold him for us we will call you when we are ready." Demeter and Persephone then filed in leaving me with two satyrs, both of which looked nervous.
We stood there for two minutes I was panicking like crazy. Adrenaline rushed through me leaving me shaking causing the satyrs to loosen their grips a little I took this as my opportunity, I pushed the satyr on the left causing him to fall and knock his head against a column, the one on the right panicked and kicked me in my stomach I hunched in pain as he slammed his hoof on my foot I stumbled around gripping my foot in agony.
The satyr looked pleased with his work and readied to punch me hoping on his feet preparing for the fight. The doors opened ajar causing the satyr to look towards the door with a cocky and also fearful expression.
I know what you're thinking; you are losing your touch if you couldn't beat up a satyr, but to be fair that guy was good.
I took my chance my knocked him out cold. Smiling at my accomplishment I looked at the doors to see the faces of the Olympians. I shot them a grin before sprinting towards the elevator.
I knew I was being chased from the foot steps behind me.
Stalls were set up along the street, selling ambrosia and nectar and other strange nick nacks, I'm pretty sure I saw one selling snow globes.
I pushed through knocking carts over as I ran. I must have knocked someone over because there was oomph and a loud bang. I turned around to see the god of messengers in a tangled heap with the goddess of the hunt lying on her back next to the god, which made me smile but also made me realize that if I wasn't screwed before I was so screwed now. As I'm pretty sure I just offended one of them, if not both of them.
Okay so know I was sitting here bored with nothing to eat. Ares didn't let me eat on the train.
Demeter and Persephone had snuck me food in from the food carriage which I thanked them for. But that was now a day ago.
They were everywhere watching me I could feel them wanting me to screw up to make a mistake. If I did I was easy prey.
My feet dragged across the city streets as I thought of how much I wanted to eat something, even the tin cans were looking good. Okay. I think I have been spending way too much time with Grover. I walked towards the park where Rachel and I use to hang out before she was the Oracle. After that we had to spend time either at camp or in one of our apartments, because of the whole sprouting prophecy thing. It kind of scared people.
I walked over to a park bench far away from people and trash cans. Just in case I got any ideas for food. I picked up riptide and began playing with it occasionally revealing its true form. But it was good because no one noticed, except for a girl with blonde hair and grey eyes. She was obviously a daughter of Athena.
She looked at riptide then at me before blushing and running away. She was off to tell the camp or worse her mother. I sighed and picked up my bag shouldering it and walked off towards mum's apartment. I wanted to see her, see if she was alright. I knew I couldn't talk to her because they were probably listening in and I didn't want to think they were watching her in case I showed up which probably was something I should have thought about. But I didn't think about it.
I was at least a block away from her apartment when I knew the feeling of being watched worsened.
But I didn't care I walked up to the building across the road and took the elevator up to the roof, where I could see into the apartment windows.
I sat on the ledge not afraid of falling or injuring myself. I sat there looking in the window mum and Paul was sitting watching television. Snuggling up together and laughing. I pulled my knees up towards my chest the feeling of longing entering me. Moved my chin so it rested on my knees and allowed silent tears to stream down my face.
"You shouldn't cry." I jumped backwards off the ledge landing in front of the stranger with riptide drawn. I looked at the man in front of me with his familiar black hair and green eyes.
I withdrew riptide and returned to my seat without looking at him. He sighed and sat next to me his arm resting on my shoulders pulling me in for a hug. I stiffened and sat straight trying not to move from my position. He sighed again and pulled me in. Obviously I could not compete with my dad's godly strength. I mean have you seen his arms, they made mine feel so, small and weak.
"I'm not leaving her." I stated he simply looked at me and sighed again.
"You already have." He replied removing his arm and dangling his feet off the edge, which was funny seeing the god of the seas doing. It was just so relaxed.
"What do you mean?" he shrugged his shoulders and looked across at the apartment.
"You ran away. She hasn't heard from you in months. She's been worried and has only started to get over it." He looked down at his feet.
"How do you know?" I asked my eyebrow rose. He didn't care about mum that much did he. He rubbed the back off his neck and looked back across towards the apartment.
"I have been keeping an eye on her since you left. Well we have been taking turns."
"Taking turns?"
"Well we knew you would return here, it's your fatal flaw, loyalty, we've also been watching the camp especially Annabeth and Grover, Nico has been with Hades so he's in good hands."
Fair enough I suppose. "I'm not going with you." I stood up and walked towards the door.
"Fine, but I know your fate you will eventually say yes."
"Maybe. But not today."
"I know son, ooh and when you leave which I would do now, I would take a left not a right. Hermes is waiting on the corner in a white van. But I never told you this." He tapped the side of his nose inconspicuously; I smiled back at him who was still sitting on the ledge looking out towards the apartment.
"Thanks dad." I muttered tearing up before running out the door leaving my dad sitting on ledge looking out at my mother, his past lover.
Like I said not a long one but I hope you enjoyed it, I threw in a little bit of Percy/Poseidon bonding he has no romantic feelings for Percy unlike the rest.
Any way hope you enjoyed and don't forget to review!
