Another strange conversation, and for once I like to say I wasn't surprised. Rachel Dare a friend of Percy informed me that he left on a Pegasus to save the world.

And she really did say to save the world. How many teenagers use that as an excuse when the dent there stepfather's car.

Sally and I continued to go about our daily lives, as if nothing had happened. More like pretended that nothing had happened. But in reality we both waited anxiously for news on Percy, but none had come. I think that Camp Half blood is too busy preparing for a war to inform parents of what is going on.

The network news wasn't helping either, huge storms were ripping apart the Midwest, Mount St. Helen erupted, and this time even bigger so I had a feeling this time it wasn't Percy. It felt like the biggest storm was yet to come.

An ominous feeling had set in. Most people felt as if Nature was in a war. I knew it was worse, the gods were at war.

Sometimes this new world is still too crazy to believe, I pretend that it's all a story and that Percy is safe. I understand why Sally and Percy were hesitant to tell me, because if you truly believe in the world of gods, the planet instantly becomes more terrifying. You know for sure all your actions are judged and that you are part of a larger plan.

I have to be careful when I pray now, somebody is listening. Hopefully the gods will keep Percy safe. I don't know what I would do if he died, I love him as if he is my own son.

I felt so tired. Both Sally and I were struggling to stay awake. It took what felt like an eternity to see what was going on around us, and it was truly shocking. I was only getting blurs of action, monsters, demigods, and undead soldiers.

In the center of it all was Percy. Sally seemed to understand what was going on better than I did, as she could see through the mist clearly.

We got out of the Prius, and I looked around the city, it was a mess. So much destruction, it smelled and sounded like a warzone, that's when it really clicked for me it was a warzone.

Sally had a grim look on her face and said "Percy needs our help." With that both of us started to make our way towards Percy, this had now become my war.

I just saw Percy beat a Giant, but instead of looking smug he looked as if the Giant was a minor annoyance.

But I got distracted by the fact a ugly creature was charging towards me.

I grabbed a sword from a fallen hero, he was too young. I don't know what the monster was called but I started to jab and swing at the beast. I got a lucky shot and the monster disintegrated.

"Paul" Percy said with wonder and amazement.

I turned towards him and said "I hope that was a monster that I killed" It would have been embarrassing and awful if that was a good guy "I was a Shakespearian actor in college! Picked up a little swordplay!"

I was feeling pretty damn good then suddenly Percy yelled ″Mom!"

I turned and watched my wife fire a shotgun at a monster. I just said "Nice one″

Percy seemed dumfounded. Which was strange wasn't that my role? He shouted "when did you learn to fire a shotgun?" Sally blew the hair out of her face and said "About two seconds ago. Percy, we'll be fine. Go!"

After some convincing from Nico who casually said that they could handle the army Percy took off with Annabeth, Thalia and Grover to battle the titan of time.

I would like to say Sally and I kicked ass and gave mortals a good name, but in reality we just tried to stay out of the way.

Lord Hades was doing most of the work, wiping out monsters left and right.

I did however stab a bird like creature.

"Hey honey did you just see that? I think I could do this whole hero thing" Sally smiled at me.

"Paul it was on the ground barely moving, I think it will take a little more training, before Percy will let you fight with him."

I guess that was true. After seeing Percy in action I was thoroughly impressed. I felt sorry for the titan Kronos he was in for a world of hurt.

A couple hours later the empire state building was glowing with a blue light. Sally hugged me tightly. "It means our little boy did it." I was grinning ear to ear, I knew it. But what struck me the most was that Sally had referred to Percy as our little boy.

And to me he was as good as my son. I was so incredibly proud.

We immediately went towards the elevator but the security guard stopped us. I tried to explain that we need to get to the top immediately it was of vital importance. But he wouldn't let us pass. The irony of the situation still got to me a titan, monsters, and a group of teenagers got to go up but two regular mortals didn't. Even more amusing was the fact that we were considered a threat.

"I'm telling you we have to go up!" Sally yelled. Still trying to convince the guard. "My son..." she looked shocked for a moment and the shouted "Percy!"

She went and hugged Percy, I could tell she was squeezing really tight. "We saw the building lit up blue" she said. "But then you didn't come down. You went up hours ago!"

"She was getting a bit anxious" I said drily.

"I'm all right, everything's okay now" Percy said. While Sally hugged Annabeth with the same enthusiasm as Percy.

"Mr. Blofis that was wicked sword work" Annabeth said. I was really touched, this is what being a cool parent felt like. I didn't want to make a big deal so I just shrugged and said. "It seemed like the thing to do. But Percy is this really... I mean, this story about the six hundredth floor?" Could Mount Olympus really just be an elevators ride away?

"Olympus" he said "Yah" as if it was no big deal. Then again I guess to him it's just his dad's place in the city. I really wanted to see it.

"I'd like to see that" I said. Ops I hadn't meant to say that out loud. But come on imagine a place where gods live, it has to be impressive.

"Paul" Sally scolded "it's not a place for mortals. Anyways, the important thing is that we're safe. All of us."

I could understand that, and Sally was right it was a great thing that we were all safe, I had my worries about Percy but now they were gone.

As my heart rate finally returned to normal I was given another shock. Something was wrong with Rachael and something about the fact she stole Percy's Pegasus. That seemed to anger Percy. I guess nobody messed with his Pegasus, Annabeth on the other hand just looked bored. Either way the two of them raced of together.

Somehow this strange ending seemed fitting. Even though the fight was over it didn't mean that things would suddenly be ordinary. When your stepson is a demigod your whole world is extraordinary.
