500 years later
Poseidon sat at his throne rubbing his eyes. He remembered his favorite son... his late favorite son. He wished that Percy's life didn't end the way it did. Percy was a young, healthy boy five hundred years ago and by now, he had to be dead. Most of the demigods and gods avoided the subject of Percy Jackson since his very name brought sadness and grief to the environment. Poseidon wasn't the only one who missed the sarcastic hero. The other gods respected Perseus Jackson and when Zeus finally realized that he missed the hero as well, he made a temple on Olympus honoring Percy Jackson.
Annabeth, Jason, and most of the heroes were all still alive. After a prank gone bad, they had become not only immortal, but gods as well. Piper was Aphrodite's little assistant. She was still that tomboy girl so as Aphrodite's assistant, she tried to manipulate her mother into liking the boyish style as well. Zeus's little boy was Jason. Zeus loved to spend time with his immortal son, teaching him more about his powers and such. He also loved to spoil the boy with the latest watches, phones, and etc. The same was for Hades with Nico and Hazel.
Ares had Clarisse and Frank. Hermes had the twins, Connor and Travis. Athena had Malcom and Annabeth. Hephaestus had Leo. Demeter had Katie... and Poseidon had no one.
Today wasn't a special day, it wasn't supposed to be. They were all walking through Olympus's many gardens that Demeter had created with her daughter, Katie. Flowers bloomed and the grass grew a bit taller wherever Katie or Demeter was. Suddenly, the calm atmosphere turned into one of excitement. Jason hollered, "Look! There's a note here!"
The immortals scrambled to look over Jason's shoulder. Jason read out loud,
" I hope you wish to find me because soon you will,
Listen to the man that does not kill."
"The man that does not kill?" Athena wondered. What's the opposite of death? Life, but who gives life? Her mind wandered to the Golden Fleece that healed. "Ah ha! I got it! She exclaimed. The gods looked at her expectedly. " Apollo, you help people that got hurt and you almost never fail! Also, you're a boy!" Athena finished, looking proud of herself.
Apollo looked confused. "Listen to me? Like I could order you around and this person's going to pop out of nowhere?" Suddenly, Apollo's entire body began to tremble. His eyes glowed green and smoke came swirling out of his mouth as he spoke,
" The lost boy shall rise
All should beware of the enemies lies
And be prepared for what shall happen soon
Because this all will not end on the next moon."
With that, Apollo collapsed, leaving the gods to worry about what their future held. Who was the enemy threatening them? How should they prepare? Was another war on it's way? Why was the situation life or death? And the big question:
Who is the "lost boy"?
