A/N Hi guys. I know. It's been a while I'm sorry. Truly sorry. I have been doing lots of stuff and I am writing another story with lunarchroniclesandcockatiels. Check out her work it's great. The story we are writing together is called The Beginning of Tratie. It's about how Travis and Katie got together. So, yeah. Check it out. Also, the blessings from the gods that McKenzie got just means she is under their protection and she can do certain things that involve there power/realm. Nothing very special. Except Iris's blessing but you will have to read and find out what I mean. :) Anyway, here is chapter 5. I hope you guys like it. It has not been beta read, so I warn you, there will be mistakes. Okay here is chapter 5. :)

I do not own PJO or HoO, Rick Riordan does.

Chapter 5- McKenzie, I am your father.

McKenzie's POV

I have never been this scarred before. I felt myself rise up, every camper was staring at me. I heard Percy yell my name but I was already sucked up by a hurricane. I was surrounded by complete darkness. After what felt like hours I saw faint light. The light got brighter and brighter, till I had to close my eyes. I heard someone clear their throat and I opened my eyes. I was in some kind of throne room. There were fourteen thrones and a hearth. Every throne occupied a person. Giant people.

'I must be on Mt. Olympus,' I thought.

I checked to see if I had any injuries and I noticed that I had on a completely different outfit. I had on pair of black leggings and brown leather gladiator sandals. I had on a dark blue shirt that ended about mid thigh. I also had on a silver floor length cloak. My hair was braided down my back. Someone cleared their throat again and I looked up. I made eye contact with a man who was on sitting on the middle throne. He had on a dark colored, striped suit and had grey hair plus a beard. I took a guess that he was Zeus, king of the gods.

"Hello, McKenzie Cooper. You are probably wondering why you are here," Zeus said.

'Well, duh,' I thought.

"Apollo has told us a prophecy, and you are a big part of it. We were not allowed to interfere with the first big prophecy. But, the Fates allowed us to be part of this one. We have brought you here to give you some gifts. But first, why don't you get acquainted with your father. Poseidon?" (a/n It might just be me, but I always imagine Zeus being one of those people who speak fancy and act kinda rude. *yells to sky* Don't strike me with lightning!)

"May I have a moment with my daughter, please," Poseidon says.

Everyone nods and disappears. I am left with a man that kinda looks like Percy. Poseidon had Percy's hair and eyes. He had on a tropical flower shirt and tan khakis shorts. He was holding a trident. Poseidon stood up from his throne and shrank till he was a few inches taller than me. He walked towards me and stopped a few feet in front of me.

"Hello McKenzie. I am sorry that we had to meet like this. It's really nice to see you. I...I miss you and your mother."

"My mother is dead. She and my father died when I was two, on my birthday. I... I just can't do this. I just can't. This is too hard. You... my dad... is dead. He died when I was two. This is just..." I trail off because I start crying.

Poseidon, my dad, looked like he wanted to give me a hug but thought otherwise.

"I am so sorry. I didn't know she died. I thought my protection charm was cast on her too. I'm sorry."

I looked at him and he looked so lost. I started to feel bad, so I walked up to him and gave him a hug. He wrapped his arms around me and I clung to him. I cried about everything that has happened. My dead mom, my unlucky foster homes, all the times I have moved, having no parents, everything. I finally dried my tears and pulled away. Poseidon cleared his throat and said that time was up. I nodded and he returned to his throne. After he sat down, all the other gods appeared.

"Welcome, McKenzie. We have brought you here to give you a gift. A very, special gift but we will need Iris," Zeus looked at Hera.

Hera rolled her eyes, "Fine. You, Hermes- whatever, go get Iris."

"I am here. No need to send the messenger," a blonde haired woman said. Her eyes changed color by the minute and her outfit was rainbow.

"Iris, welcome. How pleasant of you to be here," Hera said in a mock sweet voice.

"Welcome Iris. We are glad you could come," Zeus welcomed.

"Thanks, Zeus. Can we hurry this up? I have lots of messages and packages to deliver."

"Yes. McKenzie Cooper we give you the gift of wings."

"Wings? Like chicken wings to eat or..." I questioned.

"Wings that sprout from between your shoulder blades and help you fly."

"Oh okay. Thank you, lords and ladies."

"A few of us are not finished. I give you these two silver bracelets, they transform into celestial bronze daggers." Zeus handed- well floated- down two silver bracelets. I slipped them on my wrist, deciding to test them later.

"Thank you, Lord Zeus." Zeus nodded his head and extended his arm to a woman who looked like Annabeth and was wearing a business suit..

"I give you this owl necklace, when the beak is pressed, the wearer turns invisible." Athena handed down the necklace and I slipped it around my neck.

"Thank you, Lady Athena."

"You're welcome. Use these gifts wisely."

"Actually, I have a gift for the girl," A familiar voice rang out. It was Dionysus

"You have a gift for a demigod? That'll be the day," a curly blonde haired boy commented.

"Be quiet, Apollo. Anyway, McKenzie, I give you your mothers bag, it's been enchanted to shrink to pocket size, it's bottomless, and if you loose it, it will return to you." Dionysus handed me the bag and I almost started crying.

"Thank you so much, Dionysus- I mean lord Dionysus."

"It was my pleasure, Kenzie."

"We hope you have a safe journey. Since you will need practice, we will put you above the camp so you can try out your new wings. Goodbye, McKenzie Cooper, daughter of Poseidon, we will see each other again," Zeus said.

I was just about to reply when everything shifted. I was hanging in the air, hundreds of feet above the ground. Since I wasn't sure how to use the wings, gravity took control first. I started to fall, and being part human, I screamed as I rushed towards the ground.

A/N hahahahaha! A cliffhanger. So, now you know who Percy heard scream but what will happen? O_o Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Oh, and if possible, please read The Beginning of Tratie.
