Chapter 2: My dad makes pancakes

Disclaimer: We don't own Percy Jackson!

Note: This is in Percy's POV! AGAIN!

Another Note: One person who reviewed said that Percy's sister's name is Estelle not Sierra so she's Estelle now.

So I finally updated this for ya'll but school is like: Nooo fanfiction. But I have the day off today, so I might upload chapter 3, but then again I have homework and a bunch of places to go so...yeah. (My life in a nutshell)

Enjoy chapter 2:


"Dad?"

"My son." Poseidon smiled warmly at me.

"Not to be rude or anything, but why are you here? And where's mom and Paul?"

"You're mother went into an early labor. Looks like Eileithyia and Artemis had some more appointments this week and could not do your sister's due date. So she came early."

"Is she premature?"

"No, my son. She is just born a couple of weeks early."

I don't say anything. I hadn't expecting mom and Paul to be rushing to the hospital for two more weeks.

"How do I not know this until now?"

"You slept through it. Sally started screaming in the middle of the night. They didn't have enough time to leave you a note. She prayed to me."

"My mom prayed to you?"

"Yes, for the safety of you."

"But...what about the law Zeus made?"

"Family is family."

"Want breakfast?"

"Um.." my dad has never visited me, much less made breakfast for me but I nod at his question.

He makes my mom's famous blue pancakes and while I'm gobbling them down a question enter my mind.

"Dad." I say getting his attention "Are you okay with me and Annabeth, you know...dating."

He sighs "At first, neither Athena nor I approved of your relationship. But later we accepted it."

"So...you're fine with it?"

"What is it that Annabeth calls you? Ah, yes, Seaweed Brain. Makes sense."

"Awww, not you as well."

He lets out a laugh and all of a sudden the phone rings. I pick it up.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Percy?"

"Yeah, it's me."

"Percy, it's mom. I just wanted to tell you your sister is here. Estelle Blofis!"

"You had her?"

"Yep, I did! Is anybody with you? Did you have breakfast?"

"Mom, stop worrying! Dad's here. He made pancakes."

"Oh! How wonderful! I did pray to him. Say hello to him for me."

"Okay, mom! Get some rest. I'll drive to the hospital later."

"Bye, sweetie, love you."

"Love you too."

I put the phone down and look at Poseidon.

"Mom says hello."

He smiles at me.

"So..are you staying with me or.."

"Oh, no! I can't stay with you until your mom is discharged, but you can have your friends over.

"Seven demigods in an apartment in Manhattan? Won't that attract monsters?"

"I meant you could go on the Argo II."

"Okay."

After Leo came back from Ogygia, he redesigned the Argo II where the Seven had monthly meets.

While Poseidon goes to get some food, I Iris-message my friends. Annabeth first.

"Hello? Percy? What happened?" he voice sounds like panic.

"It's okay, Annabeth. Mom went into early labor and had Estelle."

"Estelle?" Piper says, appearing out of nowhere. "What a pretty name!"

"So is anyone there with you?" Annabeth asks.

"Poseidon is."

"But he can't stay too long."

"You got it, Wise Girl."

"So, is that it?"

"Actually, I have a surprise for all of you. Meet me tonight at eight at the restaurant called Daniel, okay?"

"Does this apply to me as well?" Piper asks.

"It applies to all seven of the prophecy." I reply.

"Okay, see ya, Percy." Piper says, dashing out of the Iris-message.

"See ya, Seaweed Brain, love you." Annabeth says, giving me a flying kiss.

"Love you too, Wise Girl." I say, grabbing her kiss.

Afterwards, I Iris-message Leo.

"Percy! What happened?!" Leo asked. He set himself on fire.

"Leo, man, cool down! I'm fine!" I say.

"Oh, okay." he's back to normal but his hair is burned and clothes are smoking. "So why are you Iris-messaging me?"

I tell him everything from since we got on the bus to me Iris-messaging Annabeth and Piper.

"I...I suppose we could meet on the Argo. I'll just have to fix her up a little and...yeah."

"Thanks, Leo. By the way, this is a surprise for the rest of the Seven."

"Welcome, Water Boy." And before I could respond, he turns the message off with a wave of his hand.

I find I only have two drachmas left but I take my chances and throw.

"Percy! Hey, bro!" Jason exclaims.

"Hey, Jason. Are Frank and Hazel with you?"

"Yeah, one sec, lemme get 'em."

Soon, enough Frank and Hazel appear at with Jason at their side.

"What is it, Percy? Are you in trouble?" Hazel asks.

"No, Hazel, I'm fine! I just wanted to say this evening at eight, meet at the restaurant called Daniel on Upper Side in Manhattan."

"Percy, that's a really expensive restaurant." Frank says.

"We're not gonna eat there!" I reply.

"Then what are we gonna do?" Jason asks.

"It's a surprise, see ya there!" I say, waving my hand through the rainbow.

As if on cue, Poseidon comes in.

"Percy, I urgently need to leave. Some emergency on Mount Olympus."

I sigh. "Bye, dad."

"Bye, son." he smiles and disappears in a wave.
