Thanks so much for all the reviews! Here's the disclaimer since I forgot it in the last chapter. Under no circumstances do I own Percy Jackson or any of its characters. Read on!

Amphitrite and Poseidon arrived at their palace each carrying one of their children. Many sea creatures stared at the sight of their lord and lady holding two infants with their prince trailing behind them an angry look plastered upon his face. Delphin came swimming up to his king as they entered the throne room.

"My lord and lady," He squeaked bowing his head, "Are the rumours true?"

The king and queen regarded each other with a look of shock. Surely the news hadn't reached the ocean yet. "Rumours," Trion said while his parents were shocked, "What rumours?"

"They say that your demigod children are not demigods at all my lord." Delphin told them, "They say that they are true children of the sea." He finished nodding at the little Ariel who still slept in her mother's arms.

"Well you ought to know Delphin." Amphitrite said. "After all you did pretend to be their stepfather."

"Just making sure everyone knew my lady." Delphin replied. Then he looked closer at the two sleeping children. "Why are they so young?"

"Apollo." Poseidon answered. "He turned several of our children into infants and doesn't know how to change them back."

Triton rolled his eyes as Delphin shook his head, "Your two daughters are here as well." He said.

"For what reason?" Amphitrite asked surprised, Rhode and Benthesikyme hardly ever visited.

"Word travels fast my lady, they've heard of their new siblings."

"Well they're hardly new." Poseidon said, "They are nearly twenty."

"They certainly don't look twenty father." Triton said nodding at his two siblings.

"No matter," Poseidon waved him off, "Tell my daughters we'll meet them in the family room." Delphin swam off to find the two daughters of Poseidon.

Triton cleared his throat, "Actually father, I think I am going to retire for the evening." He swished his two tails, about to propel himself to his room-

"Not so fast." Triton turned to face his mother who was looking at him with a raised eyebrow. "Are you not happy that your sisters are here?" She asked.

"Of course I am! I simply-"

"Or perhaps you are angry with me for keeping your siblings a secret from you."

Triton glared down at the ocean floor, furious his mother knew him oh so well. "The latter," he muttered.

Amphitrite smiled softly and placed her hand on her son's cheek. "Understand that it only for their protection. If I had kept them here Zeus would have done Chaos knows what to them." Then her face brightened and she held Ariel out for Triton to hold.

Triton looked sceptically at her, "Are you sure that's a good idea?"

"Don't be ridiculous take your sister." Triton carefully took the little mermaid into his arms, praying to every god possible that he wouldn't drop her. He needn't worry however as Ariel had sleepily wrapped her arms around his neck in a vice grip.

Poseidon shared a knowing look with his wife and he passed Percy to her before swimming to his eldest and gripping his shoulders. "Let's meet your sisters shall we?" Triton nodded and they made their way to a sitting room where two other mermaids waited.

Rhode and Benthesikyme stood up as soon as their family entered the room. "Rhode, Benny." Amphitrite cried out passing Percy back to Poseidon and throwing her arms around her girls.

"Hello mother." Rhode said hugging back.

"Girls." Poseidon said warmly, "It's good to see you."

"And you father." Benthesikyme replied craning her head to see the little one in her father's arms.

Noticing this Poseidon held his son in his outstretched arms, "This is your brother Percy."

"Percy…Jackson?" Rhode asked suspiciously while her sister cooed over the little sea prince, who had woken up and was wiggling in his father's grasp. "Where's his twin?"

"Right here." Benthesikyme said having taken Ariel from Triton and was now making bubbles to the little girl's amusement.

"Your demigod children? Why are they so young?" Rhode demanded.

"Yes. Apollo accidently turned them into infants and doesn't know how to turn them back," Poseidon sighed and upon seeing his daughter's look of outrage and her open mouth and immediately added, "As to why they are here, your mother's fault."

Amphitrite whipped around to face him, "My fault? I didn't get pregnant by myself Poseidon."

"Yes well I didn't hide my children in the mortal world." Poseidon said annoyed.

"What in Hades name are you talking about?" Rhode asked.

"Mother hid Percy and Ariel in the mortal world so uncle would not kill them. She then neglected to tell any of us." Triton supplied looking slightly miffed when he said the last sentence.

"If I had told your father he would have let it slip to Zeus." Amphitrite defended.

"I would not have!" Poseidon countered.

"You would have used their godhood at any moment if Zeus was considering killing them!" Amphitrite argued crossing her arms cross her chest. At this point the three older children stood away from their parents, the girls holding their younger siblings.

"Not if it would have put them in more danger." Poseidon said seriously.

"You-" A cry cut Amphitrite off. Both parents whipped their heads around to their children. Their eldest looked upset and Ariel was looking at them with wide, scared eyes that made them feel guilty enough but Percy was full out bawling.

Amphitrite took him from Rhode's arms immediately. "Shhh, it's all right Percy, it's okay." She cooed, rubbing his back. Slowly Percy began to calm down, falling asleep against her shoulder. Her eyes met Poseidon's and a silent agreement passed between them. No more fighting.

"Well I think it's time we all retired." Poseidon said gently lifting Ariel from her reluctant sister's arms. "Goodnight."

"Goodnight, Mother. Father." Rhode said.

"Goodnight dear." Amphitrite called after her as she swam to her chambers.

"Night mom, dad, Triton." Benthesikyme blew bubbles to her siblings as she left the room laughing as Ariel giggled and tried to grab the bubbles.

"Goodnight Mother, Father." Triton said as he left, ruffling the children's hair on his way out.

Poseidon and Amphitrite followed him out, making their way to their own chambers. Amphitrite placed Percy on Poseidon's side of the bed and took Ariel as she was handed to her. Poseidon climbed in wrapping an arm around Percy. Within minutes he was asleep and Amphitrite smiled at the sight. She put her arms securely around Ariel and fell asleep to the sound of her husband's snores, accompanied by Percy's smaller ones, and her daughter's light breathing.
