Thanks reviewers, it makes my day when I see those little emails. I love your ideas so keep it up!

And if any of you read my what brother's can bring story, I think I'll update that next.

Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson

Third Person:

An eerie silence made the children of the big three squirm uncomfortably. Their ADD didn't make it easy on them to stand still while everyone assessed the situation.

"We have almost come to an end with this meeting; alas the savior of Olympus is here to receive his gift in our honor." Zeus broke the awkward stillness. Poseidon was at a loss of words, staring at his son with his mouth gaping open like a fish out of water. "Perseus Jackson!" Zeus' voice rumbled throughout the throne room giving everyone a start.

The son of Poseidon shakily stood up on unstable knees; his hands were placed in front of him to keep balance as he strutted forward. He was unsure as to why the lord of the skies had decided to give him the last gift instead of Thalia or Nico, but decided not to question the god. His feet carried him a little crookedly to the left-front most part of the room, he was about 4 feet away from the giant god Zeus, and his father was even closer.

Percy knelt down unaware of how close he was and tilted his head down respectfully. Sadness was clear in Poseidon's face, but inside he felt a little disappointed. Not because his only current son was now blind, but this child in front of him was supposed to do greater things-that is now impossible with his disability. Percy was one of his favorite sons and now he could not make his father proud anymore in battle, because for sure his son would not be strong enough to handle another war.

"We gods would like to offer you Percy, a gift that we haven't granted in a long time." Zeus wavered as if reconsidering. "We would like to offer you Immortality." His words were powerful and a gasp was heard from everyone in the room. Everyone stared more intensely at the blind teen in front of them. Even a deep breath escaped his lips as if he thought this was a harsh joke.

His world felt like it was falling around him and there was nothing he could do about it. He turned around as if to look for his friends for advice but he immediately reminded himself that he couldn't see. He could feel the stares on him, but he didn't know what to do.

He couldn't leave his friends, or watch them die for that matter-they have always been there for him and he just couldn't abandon them. His mother too, who would look after her? What if monsters were to attack her, surely Paul couldn't help then, right? He had to stay in the mortal world for all his friends and family, Percy needed them like they needed him.

Plus the son of Poseidon knew deep down that if he was immortal he would end up destroying the world somehow, that would be his luck.

He angled his head upward to face the gods again and spoke in a low voice.

"I mean this in the most respectful way possible, but I refuse. Can I have a different gift instead?" his voice cracked at the end, considering that he might be blasted into a million pieces by the master bolt. Percy couldn't see, but the lord of the sky had a deep frown of confusion on his face. No one had ever turned down immortality before, and this sea scum in front of him had the courage to say no. He had no clue what to say to the teenager in front of him, but an idea had come to mind.

"Is it your sight back that you want? If so we can grant it back to you if, anything that is in our ability." Uncertainty was clear in the god's voice. Percy could never leave Thalia and Nico to be outcasts without him, they were his family. He did want his sight back a lot though, and maybe he could get their hearing and voice back too. But then the son of Poseidon remembered how this war started, his promise to the true hero of Olympus.

"I do not wish for that." Percy said to everyone's surprise. "I want you gods to claim your children more, make sure everyone is appreciated at camp by giving the minor gods cabins. And Hades, give Hades his own cabin at camp too. This whole war started because some campers didn't feel noticed by their godly parent, so if you all obey to these rules and claim your children by the time they turn…13 then I will be happy." He sounded confident, but if he could see the god's faces the confidence would be gone.

Outrage was obviously displayed in their facial expressions but they were also appalled to the courage of the demigod in front of them. Poseidon stood corrected; his son did make him proud once again.

"He has a wish we can manage brother." Poseidon said to Zeus.

"And I could use a little throne in the council room." Hades said in a depressing tone.

Zeus took this into consideration and agreed.

"Swear it to the river Styx." The son of Poseidon insisted.

"We swear to the river Styx now can we get on with things." He sounded tired so Percy grinned with pleasure. "Now join us all in a celebration and banquet." Zeus boomed and a feat was held in the corner and music blasted.

Someone grabbed hold of Percy's arm and tugged him off to the food. "Thalia?" He could sense her nodding and they continued to grab food, later having Nico join them. They ate in silence since it was hard for them to communicate with each other with their disabilities, but it was a comforting silence. "Where is Annabeth?" Percy broke the quietness. Thalia scribbled the answer down and Nico voiced it.

"She's talking with Athena on the dance floor." Without an answer Percy stumbled past people searching for the daughter of Athena. It wasn't until someone called his name that he felt at comfort. Her mater-of-fact voice made him feel at peace, like it was okay to be blind, like it was okay that most of his friends have died, it was okay to be sad.

Her warmth brought new energy to his tired form as she hugged him tightly; it made him feel as good as when she kissed him on top of the volcano the last year. To Annabeth it was like having her brother back, someone who had saved her life several times. She had thought she loved him at one point, but in which way was always unclear-him losing his eye sight was an eye opener to her. She needs someone like him in her life, but she needs someone who she can rely on to take care of her to stay with her in the future. Percy couldn't do that now.

"I missed you so much wise girl." He whispered to her, his head was craned down since he was a good 4 inches taller than her.

"Are you kidding me? I thought you were dead sea-weed brain." She replied. She released him from the hug and smiled at him, frowning when she saw the bandages covering his beautiful sea-green eyes. Her favorite eyes in the whole world were gone, now was just a scar that reminded her of them.

"What did Athena want?" Percy broke her from her thoughts.

"Well, my gift from the gods is to be the architect in charge of fixing up Olympus, my mother was just setting up plans for me to stay in her palace." Her voice was full of joy. Percy was ecstatic for her; this was her dream-to build something that lasts. Then Percy wondered how much he will get to see her.

"Annabeth, does this mean you're going to be staying in New York?" he asked even happier.

"No, I should probably stay up here for the most part. If you could see the destruction of this place you would agree." She said the last part a little carelessly.

Percy ignored her last comment and kept pushing the subject.

"So I won't get too see you that much?" his tone quivered in disappointment and his head was directed a little to the right of Annabeth.

"Don't be such a sea-weed brain. I'll come visit you." She punched his arm playfully. "And you were the one who turned down immortality, we could've seen each other like everyday." She finished a little selfishly. That is when Percy snapped, all his bottled up emotions coming out. He stiffened while straitening his body up and inching away from Annabeth.

"I turned it down for you and my friends." Now his voice was smooth and exact.

"Woah there, calm down Percy. I was just joking around." She was about to add something but was cut off by him storming out of the throne room without even putting her yells into consideration.

Out in the gardens of the gods, Percy felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to hear Nico with a sullen greeting.

"I heard about how she isn't staying at camp, tough luck." His voice was loud still, but he was getting used to being deaf.

"Where's Thalia?" Percy quickly corrected himself and tried to write down his question.

"The hunters left earlier to go on some mission." Nico paused pondering something. "That was very nice of you to give up immortality, or your sight."

'It was nothing Nico, at least us cousins will stick together.' Percy looked down. 'What are we going to do now?' Percy wrote down, this question has been stuck on his mind for a long time.

"Well, we could always train for upcoming wars, you never know what could happen. Learning Brail or something would do me some good." Nico's voice was uncertain.

'Well I guess the both of us can learn it' with that written down the two cousins stood up and made their way to the elevator. This was going to be a confusing life ahead of them.

Well, that's that. Hope you liked it. I don't really know where Nico and Percy will go now-I know they are going to train and become totally awesome with fighting skills, but I don't know how…ideas?
