Well, due to the terrible Wi-Fi problem I had during my vacation a few weeks ago, I'm a chapter behind where I would like to be for this story. Hopefully I can get the chapter after this one posted by Wednesday or something. Thanks again for supporting this story. Percy and Clarisse deeply appreciate it. They both send you all their gratitude and personal thank you. So with that being said, here's the next chapter for their story.

Oh, before I forget, Clarisse wanted me to tell you all you better not be hoping for an abortion or thinking of anything negative about her and Percy's baby. Otherwise if you do, she'll find you and she'll break all ten of your fingers in six different ways and shove them all up where the sun don't shine.

The Gods And The Demigods

Percy's POV

I was pissed beyond belief. Can you blame me? In my opinion, no one really should have any reason whatsoever to blame me for being so pissed. My father just comes up to me out of nowhere and preaches to me that I'm not ready to be a father and that I'm not old enough to have a baby. But what the fuck does he know? He was never around for me anyways, so what does he actually know about me, besides the obvious shit about me? I've had to put up with living with a selfish shit for a father figure named Gabe Ugliano. That mother fucker was not only a selfish shit towards me, but also towards my mother, and that always irritated the shit out of me. It was one thing to be how he was towards me, but to be like that to my mother to, that was completely inexcusable. Then after I proved my innocence in my first quest and showed that I wasn't the one who stole Zeus' thunderbolt and that Luke Castellan framed me, Poseidon promised me that he'd be around when I needed him. Well guess what, sorry that I'm bringing this up Clarisse, every time Clarisse teased, harasses, and bullied me, all I ever asked for a little father and son conversation. But Poseidon never came for any of those. He just completely ignored me and left me to suffer in my misery, and I was stuck with talking to no one or anything but the lake. Then Poseidon eventually answers me, but all he does to answer me is just send my cyclops half-brother Tyson over to me. Then there's the quest to the sea of monsters, Tyson tried to reach out to Poseidon and asked for his help like how I have over and over again. Only Poseidon actually answered Tyson's pleas right away and helped him out. He has the time to help Tyson out, but he doesn't have the time to pay any attention to me? What the fuck is up with that? And after the quest and Thalia, my cousin gets revived from the dead, Poseidon offers Tyson to live with him in his underwater palace. Poseidon acknowledged Tyson as his son and completely ignored me yet again. Poseidon just doesn't seem to care about the fact that he still has a half-blood son here.

I've been left to rot like that for my entire life. All I ever wanted was my father, and it took me until Clarisse and I have been slowly preparing for our child did I realize that I really don't have a father. If he was my father, he would make sure he and I actually have a decent father and son relationship. He would look after me like how I will for my child, like how any father should for their children no matter what as a matter of fact. If Poseidon actually doesn't care enough to know that I'm still his son, then he doesn't deserve to be called my father. I'm done trying to prove myself to him. I'm not gonna waste my time trying to reach out to him if he's just gonna ignore me every single time. Having a relationship with Poseidon means nothing to me now. The only thing that did matter to me was Clarisse and our baby. So from now on, I'm just gonna ignore Poseidon and prepare myself for my child.

"You have something to say Percy?" Poseidon asked.

"Yeah, I do. Don't tell what I'm ready and what I'm not ready for. You have nothing over me and I'm not letting you tell me what to do." I said.

Poseidon raised an eyebrow at that. Chiron slowly moved back as to avoid wherever this was gonna end up leading to. Clarisse was still holding onto me. She was still trying to make sure we would be safe. Ares just remained standing where he was. Though it seemed that he had a bit of an amused look on his face. You could definitely still detect some anger and hate in his eyes towards me, but there was amusement slowly starting to be revealed in his eyes now. He must be the only one enjoying this father and son fight.

"Percy that is enough." Poseidon warned me.

"I'm not listening to you." I said crossing my arms.

"You have some serious nerve to talk to your father like that." Poseidon said.

"You are not my father." I said.

"Excuse me?" Poseidon asked raising both of his eyebrows.

"I said you aren't a father to me." I repeated.

"I will not tolerate you being a smart ass to me." Poseidon snarled.

"A real father is a man that is always there for his child no matter what. You were never there for me when I needed you. All you did was completely ignore and put your own desires and interests over the concerns you should have for your own son. You've done nothing but ignore me throughout the time I've been here and in the mortal world, and I'm sick and tired of it." I said as my anger began to slowly grow and my irritation towards my father grew with it.

"Perhaps we should continue this conversation under a few better circumstances." Chiron suggested trying to prevent this conversation from going any further.

"Ah, can it Horse Ass. Let them get what they need to say off of their chests. Better out than in." Ares said as if trying to suggest the best for us, but it was clear he was just letting us continue our fight for his personal amusement.

Clarisse the whole time didn't say anything or even looked at anyone. She just continued to hold onto me and kept me close to her. With the kind of hold she had around my body and with the way she's slightly trembling against me, I could tell she wasn't really liking where this was going either. But she didn't really say or do anything to try and stop this. She just stayed in the background.

"I have a huge responsibility ahead of me Poseidon. Something that you will never understand. And I intend to make sure I become the father I always wanted but never had and never will have." I said.

"I know more about being a father than you know boy!" Poseidon said raising his voice.

"All you know about being a father is just having an affair with a woman, getting her pregnant, and leaving her as soon as you find out she's pregnant because you don't want that child in your life!" I said raising my voice.

"Don't you dare raise your voice at me!" Poseidon exclaimed.

"I'm going to be the father of my child that he or she will need in his or her life Poseidon! I'm not going to make the same mistake you made when it came to me! I'm going to be there for my child and I'm gonna be around for him or her no matter what!" I firmly and strictly stated.

"You think I've never been there for you huh? Well if that's true, than who was it that warned you at the museum when one of the three furies came after you? Who was it who told you to heal yourself during your first game of capture the flag? Who was it that woke you up in the lotus casino when you were under the control of the lotus eaters? I've been around for you more than you know! But you don't care, do you, because you're a spoiled, bratty, and inconsiderate kid who just expects everything to go the way you want it to and how you think it really should! And with this attitude you are having, this is just living proof that you are unworthy of being a father!" Poseidon exclaimed as he pushed me.

"This coming from the selfish fuck who not only just as spoiled, bratty, and inconsiderate as I could ever be, but also from the same selfish fuck that is on the worst excuses of a father, the selfish fuck that sucks at being a parent just like his father!" I exclaimed.

It happened so fast. It happened before I could stop it. It happened before anyone could prevent this argument from going on any longer. Poseidon pushed me and also Clarisse since she was still holding onto me from behind me. I was able to keep my balance, but unfortunately Clarisse wasn't. She lost her grip on me and she fell on the ground. When Clarisse landed on the ground, I lost it. That was when Poseidon went too far at offending me. He could do and say whatever he wants to me all he wants, but nobody, and I mean nobody, harms Clarisse or my baby. With Clarisse on the ground like that, I let my anger get the best of me and I just punched Poseidon in the face, which caused him to kneel to the ground covering where I had struck him at.

"PERCY!" Chiron exclaimed as he was shocked beyond belief at what he just witnessed.

Ares raised his eyebrows to. Even he wasn't expecting what just happened to happen at all. I couldn't really read what expression he had on his face or in his eyes right now, but I didn't really care right now. Poseidon dared to call me what he called me, and I responded by letting him know that he was just as worse as me. It would've stayed that way if he didn't push Clarisse and I. But he did, and I reacted out of my anger and threw my fist at his face. I know I'm probably a lot different than all the other demigods here, and I know I was raised in the mortal world differently than all the others. But I do not let anyone talk to me like that anymore. Not even the Olympian gods are gonna have any right whatsoever to say and do such things.

Taking a deep breath and trying to calm down as much as possible, I looked back at Clarisse and offered a hand. She took it and I helped her up. Once she was up, she wrapped her arms around my neck and buried her head in my neck and began letting out her cries. It hurt in more than one way, being pushed to the ground like that and being looked upon by others in such a resentful and hateful way. When you're a woman and you're pregnant, you change. Um, what's the best way I can describe this change as? You become a little softer than usual, it's a lot easier for you to get emotional about something, people have an easier chance of hurting you physically, mentally, sexually, and most importantly, emotionally, you have the tendency to overreact about some things sometimes, even if you don't want to or mean to, long story short, you basically act like a mom. Once you're pregnant, you slowly walk down the path that leads you to think, feel, and look like a mom.

Poseidon meanwhile, got up from the ground and uncovered his face to reveal that there was now a big purple mark on the side of his eye. He looked shocked and pissed to say the least. His eyes were reflecting a huge thunderstorm over the seas that was filled with rain, thunder, whirlpools, hurricanes, and mammoth waves. I wondered if that's what people would see in my eyes if I was that angry. I was pretty angry right now, though I don't know if my eyes were showing any of that.

"How did that feel, punching your own father in the face!?" Poseidon exclaimed.

"You harmed the woman carrying my baby! What you just got is not even close to what you deserve for what you've done!" I said bringing Clarisse closer to me as I possibly could.

"Percy." Chiron warned, but no one was really listening to him at all.

"You will regret you're words and actions Percy Jackson! Do you hear me? You will regret this!" Poseidon exclaimed.

"I don't regret getting Clarisse pregnant. Nor do I regret preparing for the future of having a baby. The only thing I actually do regret is wasting my time trying to prove myself to you, when I already knew you wouldn't give a fuck. I regret ever thinking myself as your son. I'm done with you Poseidon! So fuck off!" I said raising my voice as I went on.

"How dare you!" Poseidon exclaimed gritting his teeth.

"Leave now, and never come back to us. I don't want you anywhere near me or Clarisse ever again." I said wanting Poseidon to just get the fuck out of here already.

"This is not over Percy! THIS IS NOT OVER!" Poseidon exclaimed as he turned and left.

That left it to me, Clarisse, Chiron, and Ares. Ares just stood there and enjoyed the show. I don't know much about the god's personality, other than he must be one hotheaded mother fucker. But I do know he was born with some very emotional health issues. I can only imagine how much stress Hera must've been put under when she was carrying Baby Ares.

"Lord Ares?" Chiron asked cautiously.

Ares acknowledged that he heard Chiron, but not by acknowledging him. Instead, he had his attention focused on Clarisse and/or me.

"You've got some serious balls kid. I have to say, I'm quite impressed." Ares said.

I didn't say anything. I just waited for him to continue whatever it is he has to say.

"I still hate you for getting my daughter pregnant, and I still don't take any excuses as to what lead her to do this. But seeing as how your father pushed her to the ground and you defended her honor, I do suppose I can let it slide this once, at least for a little while, that is." Ares said.

I just simply nodded my head. Clarisse tightened her hold over me. Her cries had settled down, but she was still trembling a lot. I tried to comfort her as best as I could. But considering what just happened, I really doubted there was anything I could really do for her at this point.

"Punching your own father in the face, and a god for a father for that matter? Damn, you do more shit like that kid, and I might just have to mold you into a god myself." Ares said with a small smirk forming on his face.

"Thanks, but I think I'll be perfectly fine living my life as nothing more than a demigod. If for at least one reason alone, just so I can make sure I don't become a pitiful excuse of a father like Poseidon." I said.

The personal note I had behind that statement of mine was like every god and not really just Poseidon, but there was no need to let anyone know that. I also didn't want to live forever and never be able to live as much of a normal life as I wanted to. I've got many things to look forward to for myself other than just becoming a father.

"Well, if you ever decide to make some arrangements of becoming a god, or if you'd like some tips and lessons on fighting, just give me a call." Ares said as he flipped over a celestial bronze token that had his symbol of power on both sides of it.

Catching that with one of my hands, Ares summoned his motorcycle and drove on out of here. Well, this was certainly a day that will not soon be forgotten.

"Percy?" Chiron asked worried.

"I'll see you later Chiron." I said as I picked up Clarisse bridal style and carried her away from her and back to my cabin.

Once I got us back to my cabin, I locked the door behind me and sat Clarisse on my bed.

"Clarisse, are you alright?" I asked.

"I can't believe they did that. I don't get it Percy, Why are you and I and only a few others the only people who don't think negatively about our baby? Why can't anyone understand how happy we are to have this child? Why can't everyone support us on our decision?" Clarisse breathed wiping the tears out of her eyes.

"Other than the fact that they aren't us and that they don't really think and/or feel like us, I don't really know." I answered.

"Everyone seems to be slowly betraying us Percy." Clarisse said.

"I know." I simply responded.

"Why do our family and friends have to be the ones to betray us?" Clarisse asked leaning her head against my shoulder.

"Because it wouldn't be betrayal if it were our enemies." I answered.

Clarisse just remained silent after that one.

"You should get some rest." I suggested.

"I'm not tired." Clarisse said.

Tired or not, I was still gonna have her rest for a little while. So I did the first thing I thought of, singing. I didn't have my guitar on me right now, so my voice alone was gonna have to do.

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way

Life is ours, we live it our way

All these words I don't just say

And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you

Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view

And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

But I know

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

But I know

I never opened myself this way

Life is ours, we live it our way

All these words I don't just say

And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you

Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view

And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say

Never cared for games they play

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

And I know

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

No nothing else matters

After singing quietly and humming "Nothing Else Matters" By Metallica, Clarisse fell asleep. I gently laid her on the bed without waking her up and I went to my seat. I really needed a few minutes to think.

We're definitely gonna be kicking the drama up a notch. While writing this chapter, I was thinking about the episode of The Bold and the Beautiful where Thomas and his father Ridge begin to have major issues with their father and son relationship. It's a pretty interesting turn of events in that soap opera if you ask me. Anyways, I'll update again soon. Until I do ladies and gentlemen, if you will in your reviews and/or PMs, why don't you feel free to tell me what your favorite moment of reading how Percy and Poseidon have a bitter fight just so happens to be.

And remember, Clarisse has warned you all. You better not be hoping for an abortion or thinking of anything negative about her and Percy's baby. Otherwise if you do, she'll find you and she'll break all ten of your fingers in six different ways and shove them all up where the sun don't shine.

And even Percy won't hesitate to go ape shit on your asses either. You've been warned.
