Author's Note: Hey, guys Aryan here and I'm here with another update. I would like to thank Dragon1214, Quip Scarlet, dkaple, juan D araque Sascha1998, lucas123321 for the support and encouragement they have given. I understand from a certain uh Pm that I'm not exactly good at writing grammar or common conversations see the thing English is not my native language and I'm not from a place where it is commonly spoken either, So please try to oversee my mistakes and suggestions are welcome. In this story I am trying to match the immortals personalities to what I found in my research so the Olympians and other gods will be very much different from the books though some won't change much and yes even the other characters are a little different for my convenience. Hopefully you'll enjoy the chapter as there's a little action at last.

Chapter-2: I am a killer?

Third Person POV:

The past week was quite blissful for Percy and his mother. While the young man was quite happy to know what little information he could get on his father something felt off to him, despite the nagging feeling of danger he was enjoying the vacation with his mother. Little did he know that his life was about to change, Sally was doing anything and everything she can to prepare herself for the horrible act she was about to commit. She knew it would be difficult and downright miserable but she had to do this ... For her son... She could only hope that someday Percy would forgive her.

Time Skip to September 30th:

It has been 3 weeks since Sally Jackson had married Gabe Ugliano and the beginning of the horrors in little Percy's life. It all started on a fateful day when Percy stumbled through the staircase of his house in search of milk at midnight this noise woke up the monster in disguise of a man who instantly seethed at whoever disturbed his oh so well deserved sleep(A/n: Note the sarcasm please). He saw little Percy sneaking around in the kitchen. His anger somehow increased at the reminder of his now wife's son. Not only is he supposed to marry a woman who already has the child of another man but he is also supposed to take care of his so called Step-son like in Hell I'm gonna do that he thought his thoughts were interrupted by a loud CLANG what he saw was that the little runt standing beside the fridge with a broken milk glass 'aha just what I needed an excuse to punish that mongrel' he smirked cruelly at the terrified boy "What are you doing here at midnight boy" he growled at Percy who was still looking at Gabe afraid of what he was going to do when he didn't answer Gabe snarled and punched him in the ribs. Percy flew back into kitchen's counter the impact knocked the wind out of the 6 year old. The poor boy's eyes were filled with tears were looking at Gabe in horror. But the monster wasn't done yet he punched Percy repeatedly and said "when. I. Ask. A. Question. You. Will. Answer. GOT. It. He got out between punches. It was midnight but the way he slurred made it clear to Percy that he was drunk. He rained blow after blow on the helpless child he only stopped when his knuckles were covered in blood and Percy was whimpering in pain. He stepped back admiring his handiwork he grinned in sadistic enjoyment 'Damn that felt good, hmm should do this more often' he mused he lifted the boy with his hair and said "Just a few punches and you're crying for mommy, Pathetic no wonder your dad doesn't want a weakling like you. God I wonder if whipping your slut of a mother would feel this good". Hearing that something in the young child snapped despite having a few broken ribs and a swollen eye he found a surge of power the pain, hatred and anger turned into unbridled fury, while the fear of being hit was replaced by power. He glared at the man hatefully before grabbing the man's wrists in both hands and twisted them a SNAP was heard followed by a pained scream, Percy rose from the ground before kicking the man's balls which made the fool fall to his knees, Percy grabbed his assaulter's neck and spoke in a calm and sinister tone "Hurt me and insult me all you want but NEVER bring my mom into this" unknown to the boy he was covered in a brilliant green and black aura even though he was being stared down by a barely 6 year old child Gabe had never felt more terrified in his life it was like he was looking at a being much more older and powerful than a mere kid. A voice in the back of Percy's head demanded to kill the man in front of him who seemed frozen in fear. He shook his head he really wanted to hurt Gabe but he knew that Gabe brought the money for them to live and he also knew that should he kill him then he would be no different than a serial killer, he didn't want to hurt his mom by becoming someone like that. From this incident he understood that his mom wasn't safe so he made a deal with that monster "From now on you can hurt me all you want, but I won't say anything, but you will never hurt my mom. If you do then I swear on the River Styx I will kill you" Percy was a little confused on why he swore on a river from Greek myth stories his mother would read for him, but it just felt right. Unknown to him a loud thunderclap struck sealing the oath he just made.

Time Skip 3 years:

Sally's POV:

The month of August finally arrived as cool and pleasant as ever, The perfect time for a vacation in Sally's opinion she was so happy that her measures worked and her baby boy was safe ...for Now at least, but she knows that she can't keep doing this someday she has to send Percy to camp. Worried as she was about the monster attacks she was somewhat proud of how naturally strong Percy is if the aura she could feel from him was anything to go by but now wasn't the time today she planned to take Percy to Montauk for a 3 days vacation so here she was standing behind Gabe while trying to swallow her pride and ask him for his car [hey, come on she loved a god before of course she'd have a little pride :)] when she finally did ask for the car Gabe straight up refused and said "There's no way I'm letting that little shit ride my car" that comment of course made her livid their argument only worsened further after awhile Gabe had enough and raised his hand to hit her she flinched involuntarily remembering the last time he hit her. Suddenly Sally stiffened as she felt the smell of ocean cloud her senses looking behind she saw her son glaring at Gabe in hate with a murderous expression on his face but what shocked was the swirling emerald green aura surrounding him. When he spoke in a voice barely restrained anger she knew that Gabe was done for "Mom, please wait downstairs, I'll come for you later". Though she kept a good poker face deep down she was glad that Percy came to her rescue.

Third Person POV:

After Sally left the place, Percy returned to his Step Father with a sadistic grin on his face "I warned you to not hurt my mother, but now you did I will fulfill my promise" he then raised his hand like he was calling for someone or something when suddenly 4 jets of water burst out from the kitchen and bound smelly Gabe's arms and legs who was absolutely terrified he now knew that he had not imagined the whole thing back when 3 years ago Percy threatened and now he was going to die so he began to beg for mercy to which Percy's response was a sneer and "Sorry, all out of mercy" [A/n: Anybody got the reference].
