4 Years Later
Percy's POV
I finished slicing off the last of the celestial bronze training automatons, I returned my sword, named "Wyvernfire" into it's ring form, it was a gift from Draco when I started my training. I caught my breath and took a break from my training. I reminisced about how far I had come from that little boy being chased by an empusa in streets, I was now 11 years old, and was very proficient in using my half dragon abilities. When turned to a half-dragon I had pitch black wings like my dad, they had originally been sea green, but I had asked him to change them, since they reminded me too much of my blood father who had abandoned me. I could use my water abilities, but I prefered to not, as it was just a constant reminder of him.
I went to go to the house I had been raised in for the past four years, located a few miles past the Styx, we lived there with Lord Hades permission, at first he was reluctant, to say the least, to let a son of Poseidon live in his domain, but Draco had assured him that I hated Poseidon just as much as he did, to which he grudgingly let me live as long as I caused trouble, in fact I had even gained his favor and he now treated me as if I were one of his own children.
"Percy," Draco spoke once he saw his son "I would like you to go to a camp in New York, it is called Camp Half Blood, it is a place for demigods, as much as I would love for you to stay with me forever, you have to go out into the real world sometime" He finished with a pained look on his face.
This surprised me, I had always wanted to visit the surface but I never thought the opportunity would come so soon, Would the demigods there respect me, or think of me as a freak for me being a half-dragon? I pushed these thoughts aside, I was finally going to have adventures, and I was not going to sit here thinking about what could happen, I was going to earn my respect at the camp one way or another, I told myself. I smirked inwardly, this was going to be fun.
Draco gave me one of his crooked grins as he handed me a fire red amulet with a small red dragon inside of it, much alike the one on his armor. "I know you don't need it, thanks to your natural dragonscale armor, but when you pull this amulet a set of full battle armor and a shield will appear, much like your sword" He said, then his grin was replaced by a look of worry as he narrowed his eyes "Don't you die on me Percy, you are the only son I have ever loved."
I looked at him at a loss for words, instead I just gave my amulet a tug, midnight black armor appeared, the thing that interested me the most was the demonic red that was pulsing across the armor, never staying in one spot. "Badass" I muttered, lost in my own world, then I noticed the shield, it was made out of dragonscales polished to give it a clean red look, with stygian iron reinforcing the outsides. "I don't even know how to thank you for this father" I said, truly mesmerized by the beauty of this gift.
Draco had a glimmer of amusement in his eye "Have fun at camp" he said, as I was consumed by a pitch black tornado.
-Linebreak-
I had arrived just outside of camp, I walked up to the front and entered, I was greeted by a centaur "Hello, I am Chiron, considering you could pass through the barriers I am assuming that you are a demigod." To this, I just nodded, taking it all in, demigods were everywhere, training, laughing, it was refreshing to see so many people who were like him.
"Who's this punk, Chiron" said a girl.
Chiron sighed "Must you always be so rude to the newcomers Clarisse, and I haven't gotten around to asking his name yet," he said with a questioning glance at me.
So the girls name was Clarisse and the centaur was Chiron, good to know I thought. "My name is Percy, and I don't appreciate the tone, Clarisse." I replied with a smug smile as Clarisse narrowed her eyes at me.
"Watch it newbie, do you even know who your godly parent is?" She said with a smirk as I winced, she knew that she hit a sore spot and she seemed to enjoy every moment of it.
"Unfortunately yes, Poseidon, however I would prefer to be called son of Draco, the first dragon." I watch their reactions, Clarisse and Chiron's eye widened at my claim, I inwardly smirked, expecting reactions like this.
"Child, how can you be a son of Draco, he has long since faded, and you do not look half dragon, nor do you have the scent of a son of Poseidon" Chiron sputtered out indignantly, obviously not believing my claim.
I sighed as my scales hardened and midnight black wings shot out from my back, while my eyes turned to slits. "Believe me Chiron, my father raised me as an honest child, I would not lie of my parentage" I said while changing back into my human form. Suddenly Clarisse and Chiron bowed to me "Why are yo- why in Hades name is there a glowing trident above my head?"
"Your father Poseidon has claimed you" Chiron said "All Lord Poseidon"
This made me furious, after all that bastard had done, he had the nerve to claim me as his son? "I am no son of Poseidon" I spat angrily, watching Chiron's surprised face.
"Percy, is there something you have against your father?" The old centaur asked inquisitively.
"As I said before, he is not my father, and he is the reason my mom has been dead for 4 years, I hate him" My thoughts were overloading, then a voice spoke to me 'Perseus, it is fine for now, him claiming you does not mean that you accept him, it simply means that you are a child of Poseidon' reverberated the mental voice of Draco through my mind. At this I calmed a little as I looked at the camp "So where is my cabin" I asked curious where I would be living for the rest of the time here at camp, to this Chiron just pointed to the beach where a small house near the sea was located, with a drinking fountain in the middle.
I made my way to my cabin, it was late out, nearly midnight, I threw myself in bed and found myself asleep almost immediately, the calm noise of the sea repeating like a lullaby.
I awoke before everyone else, I found that I couldn't go back to sleep so I started doing my workouts. While I was in the middle of doing pull-ups I was cornered by a group of girls and boys, who by their obvious aggression, must have been Ares' children.
"Ready for initiation boy" One of them said.
"You're going to love the toilets here" Another one sneered.
Then the girl from earlier, Clarisse, stepped up and said "Sorry, but it's Ares custom to dunk all the new kids heads in the toilets" She had a sadistic grin on her face as she said this.
I got ready to defend myself, there was no way in Hades that I was going to let a bunch of arrogant campers put my head in a toilet. "I will give you one chance to leave me alone" I said warningly, to which they all scoffed at. In that instant Clarisse lunged at me, trying to grab my hands to subdue me, I sidestepped and tugged my amulet, while simultaneously twisting my ring. As they saw me in full battle armor with a sword that emitted an aura of rage, they started to lose confidence. As they were backing away, the Clarisse girl came from my back, trying to disarm me without me noticing, she was now armed with a spear that arced with electricity. I grinned as I put my shield up to block it, then went on the offensive, playing with her, making her block my attacks as the rest of her cabin mates just watched, with the occasional cheering about kicking my ass. "Well this has been fun, but I think we've attracted too much attention, and I have to continue my work-out. Clarisse looked around, noticing that roughly half the camp was watching now, she attacked me with renewed vigor making a desperate attempt to break my guard as I met every slash, then when she overextended on a jab, I twisted my wrist, sending a massive amount of force at her spear, which in turn exploded with the force of a lightning bolt, when the dust dissipated I stood victorious over the unconscious body of the war god's daughter.
"Percy why is Clarisse on the floor, and where did equipment come from?" Came the voice of Chiron.
