As the 12 olimpions steered at the young boy speachless, Percy looked around the room, waiting for a reply. Luckily that was when Hera stepped in.
"my son is very powerful, I have taught him respect and good, he knows who to side with. I have no doubt that he will stop kronos, we has my blessing to protect him, he will not fail. But for this to work, I need you ALL to trust him!" que glare at Zeus. "only then will Perceus be able to help us. We are a family and hating each other will get us no where, Ares!" after Here's speech, she raised her hand and ordered for a collection of followers to stand.
Poseidon was the first, knowing that if he can not trust his son, then he couldn't trust anyone. after him, most of the others stood, raising there hands. First Hermes, then Apradite, followed by Atimase, Athena, Apollo and Dementa. Soon, all the gods where stranded after a very unhappy Zeus joined them.
"very well, it is decided. To help Percy in the up coming war he will need an army!" Hera boasted.
"I say the boy needs to understand the mortal world more! he should go with artimus and the hunt!" Apradite spoke, flicking her hair. ' percy and atimus? , PERSIMUS!' she sang in her head.
"NOT IN YOUR DREAMS, I will not let a BOY near my hunters.!" Atimus argued, knowing that nothing good came out of Aphridite.
"I think it is quite a good idea, the boy can learn how to gane the respect of the impossible and love will not be there to cloud his judgement! " Zeus interrupted. Percy would be under the whatch of a goddess and most likely killed, he thought.
"I am sorry, but I think the boy would most likely die then be helped in the hunt! " Hermes sighed.
" maby camp is best, he will have time to learn the strengths and weaknesses of his fellow Demigod worriers!" Athena staited, earning everyone's approve.
"when should he start?" questioned Hera. Everyone turning back to the discussion.
"as soon as possible! " Zeus bellowed.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO, I can't stand ANOTHER ONE, its hard enough how it is!" Dionoyse screamed.
"how about when he turns 13, that is the average age of a camper after all?" Poseidon spoke for the fist time.
After a silent argument, Hera once again raised her hand.
"all in faither for Perceus to go to camp at 13?"
Once again everyone raised their hands and agreed. Percy had a year before he would join Camp Half-Blood!
Slowly, seeing as the meeting was over, gods started to transport away. After Zeus had called Hera for a personal talk, only Percy and his father remained.
Percy looked down at his feet, he didn't know what to think of his father. This was the man that left his mother for dead, that left him to fight for himself. He forgot about his son, Hera had saved him, not his dad, not the god of the sea. Hera did!
Poseidon didn't know how to react, his son had been found, only to be hidden in the clutches of Hera! But then again, Hera saved him when Poseidon couldn't, his son was alive because of her.
"Perceus, I know you must hate me, I expect that. I feel awful for what I did and I want to make it up to you! I tried to find you and keep an eye on you when you were young, but a fawl smell always blocked me. Hkw can you forgive me?" the god of the sea pleaded.
His son looked up at him with gleeming eyes, he was on the verge of tears. Percy had not expected the god to be sorry, never the less, beg for forgiveness. Hera had told him that not all Gods where good natured, so one of the big three showing regret was a rear sight. He could forgive his father, he didn't what to make their relationship tasteless.
"its fine, your a god, its natural. Besides there was nothing you could do." Percy explained, sending a reassuring smile his way.
Poseidon stood there bewildered, he thought Percy would shout, scream, attack even. But never had he thought that he would forgive him!
"I don't deserve you. You where there for your mother when I wasn't, you have already showed that you are very powerful and yet you are selfless and forgiveing. I don't deserve such an astounding son!" now it was Percys tern to be stunned, maby all gods do have harts. "I will side with you no matter what, you have already shown to be my favourite son... I really do love you Percy. I as so sorry I missed you growning up, but maybe I can be there for you now?" Percy suddenly had a wide smile on his face.
"I'd like that... Dad!" Percy wasn't sure if a god would like to be called that, but he gave it a chance. Poseidon returned the smile, with real joy for once.
Soon there was another awkward silence. Leaving the two very interested in their shoes.
"one more thing Perceus!" Poseidon spoke up, trying to spend as much time with his new found son.
"you can just call me Percy"
"right, corse. Well, you know how you turned 12 not so long ago? Well, I never got to give you your present, did I?" he questioned, eyeing Percy mischievously. Poseidon flashed in a small, rectangular box. He then walked towards Percy, holding out the gift.
"well, happy birthday!" he said, as Percy took the box and stared at it. "go on, open it. I've been meaning to give it to you, for a long time!" Poseidon whispered.
Percy slowly lifted the lid of the box, but just looked disappointed once he saw what was inside. A small bull point pen, lay at the bottom of the box. poseidon just smirked, as Percy stood there confused.
"its a sword, just take of the lid!" Poseidon explained.
Percy- still not convinced- took out the pen and took of the lid as instructed. To Percy's amazement, the pen transformed into a 10 inch long sword, celestial bronze, leather gripping and small Greek inscriptions up the blade. The words translated into rip-tide. Percy weighed the sword in his hand; he had tried out thousands of good swords, but they never seemed to balance in his grip. The sword weighed perfectly, like it was designed for him. Percy looked up at his father, who beamed down at him with pride.
"thanks, its perfect!"
"of course it is!"
"so, I gess you should be going?"
"not yet, I can stay a little longer. The sword will always return to your pocket by the way, helps not to loose your weapon!"
This made Percy very thankful about his dad, 'he realy dose care for me!' he thought.
"thanks again, for the sword and all"
"don't mention it! Its nothing realy!"
Just then, Hera stormed through the throne room, grumbling in greek under her breath. She had just had an argument with Zeus about loyalty.'what did he know about loyalty?' she asked.
"percy, are you ready to go?" she asked. Poseidon was shocked at how Hera quickly changed, only a minute ago she would have ripped someones head of, but now she spoke with a care free tone and love in her eyes. Poseidon suddenly trusted and respected Hera with his son.
Percy looked up, nodded his head and turned towards Poseidon.
"I gess I have to go now, see you round?" he asked, Poseidon looked down, seeing as the time had come for them to part.
"see you round, kido!" he smiled sadly, ruffling Percy's hair.
With a last smile, Hera nodded towards her brother and flashed her and Percy away.
Poseidon stood alone in the throne room, thinking what a wonderful son Sally had. He only wished that she could be there with him, to whatch their son grow up together.
