Hi!So a few people wanted more chapters and I'm more than happy to oblige. I've decided to write about one occasion when Poseidon was there for Percy for every year of his life starting at 1 years old and upwards to 12 years. Really hope you enjoy.
Poseidon's POV
I stood in the shadows, unnoticed by the careless child minder who was supposed to be looking after my 1-year-old son Percy. I wasn't invisible, just manipulating the mist and I could feel the gaze of 2 young children of Hermes. My son on the other hand didn't seem interested in me at all, he was to preoccupied with something in his cot, confused, I looked over, trying to get a better view. My breath hitched in my throat as I spotted the snake slithering slowly towards my son. I probably should have reacted and stopped the snake, but instead I watched keenly, wanting to see how he would deal with this sudden threat. Of course I was ready to intervene at any moment but this could be a crucial insight into the hero he would surely one day become.
I watched as he turned over a bit, almost seeming to size up his enemy, as if he could sense the danger. He then stayed perfectly still as the snake edged closer to the sleeping baby, I held my breath, anticipating his move, the snake was about an inch from his neck when Percy reached out his hand and grabbed the snake by the neck, the startled creature sprung an attack on my infant son and I would be lying if I said I didn't almost have a heart attack but my son was strong and his grip held firm. For a few minutes he sat there holding the withering creature, I almost felt sorry for it and was about to release it from Percy's grasp, then I remembered that this snake had come to kill my precious son and finalized that it deserved what it got. An hour or 2 passed and Percy continued
to play with the limp,scaly rope that had once been about to kill him and I will admit I felt proud, he had overcome imminent danger at a young age and I was sure he would be a great hero. The best of the age I thought absent-mindedly but I was torn from my thoughts as a beautiful young woman walked into the child care centre. I leaned against the wall as Sally Jackson walked past me towards our sons cot , I was glad she couldn't see me, it might have been a bit awkward but from the safety and cover of the shadows, I watched her walk over to Percy, her hair flowing down her back and her eyes... No! I told myself, I wouldn't think about this, it just made keeping away so much harder. By the time I had sorted the thoughts out in my head she had reached our young child's cot. She let out a small gasp as she spotted the dead snake in his cot before quickly scooping Percy up, who dropped the snake in surprise. I then decided it was time for me to leave, Percy was in the safe hands of his mother now, but that didn't mean that I wouldn't always be there for him, because I would.
OK so how was it?Good,bad, OK or suckish let me know what went well and what I could improve on please and if you would like to see more chapters let me know by reviewing down below :-)
