A/N: Thank you for all of the wonderful support! I really appreciate it. I would also like some reviews on how you like the story so far. Am I making things interesting enough? Constructive criticism, please... not destructive. :) I would have had this up sooner, but I was working on a short story writing challenge for the first nine days of April.

Also, if you somehow missed it, Polyamourous relations was requested. Harry is married to both Daphne and Susan, but that does not mean that Daphne and Susan will be intimately involved.

Rising Storms

A Harry Potter and Percy Jackson crossover

Part 2

Chapter 10:

Harry

"You're what?" Harry asked. He ignored the laughter of the others, just staring at the blond.

"Yes," she said. "I'm five months pregnant, but I still only have a small bump." She took off the sweater, and the shirt she had on under that showed the slight swell of her midsection. Daphne ran a hand over her baby bump, looking up at Harry worried about his reaction.

Harry was staring at the baby bump in shock. A teary-eyed man, he asked, "May I?" as he reached out a hand.

"Of course," Daphne said, grabbing his hand and placing it on her stomach. "I'm only eighteen weeks along, and while I can sometimes feel him or her shifting, I don't think you'll be able to feel anything yet."

Harry stared at the baby bump under his hand. He couldn't believe that he was going to be a dad. He looked up into Daphne's eyes. "I'm going to be a dad." She nodded with a smile and Harry grinned. He turned to look at the others in the room. "I'm going to be a dad!" He yelled in excitement. Susan smiled at Daphne, holding the words in her heart close to herself.

...

On March sixteenth, just two weeks after Harry found out that Daphne was pregnant, he had finalized the paperwork for their new manor. The only thing left for them to do was to move all of their stuff inside and have a housewarming party. The moving part was what they were going to do today.

Harry walked up the stairs to his room where his wives were packing up the last of their things. Susan was doing the heavy lifting.

…

Susan was sitting in the sitting room with Daphne, lost in thought. Her healer had said to come back in three months for the first scan, but Susan was worried about her pregnancy. Her belly didn't look like it was growing at all. Was something wrong with the baby? "I'm going to see a healer. I have a question for her."

"Okay," Daphne said, flipping a page in her book. "Be careful."

Susan nodded. "I will." She left the sitting room in a daze.

Susan found herself seated in front of her healer. "I don't know what's wrong. My stomach isn't growing and I can't feel the baby move. Daphne's baby is growing steadily and she's getting bigger as her pregnancy progresses."

Her healer tucked a red lock of hair behind her ear, smiling at Susan across the desk. Her green eyes sparkled. "Your child is doing just fine. The spells I performed tell me that your baby is still alive and growing."

Susan smiled, relaxing in her seat. "Thank Merlin."

…

When Susan said something about heading out to the Healer, Daphne hadn't thought anything of it. However, when Susan walked outside the manor, Daphne followed her. Susan walked around the grounds for a while… not leaving the area. What was she doing? "Susan?" she called out.

Susan snapped out of her daze, looking around before seeing Daphne. "Hey, Daphne. You won't believe what my healer told me!"

"Susan," Daphne said, confused. "You left the manor instead of flooing out, and you didn't do anything but walk around the grounds. You didn't go anywhere." She reached out to touch Susan's arm. "Are you okay?"

"Of course I went to see my healer." Susan stared at Daphne. "She told me that my pregnancy is going well. My healer has red hair, and eyes that seem familiar." At the slow shake of Daphne's head, Susan froze. "Are you saying that I imagined the visits?"

"I don't know," Daphne said slowly. "I don't know what's going on, Susan."

…

Harry was sitting in his study in their new manor, working on setting up their finances. This would help them keep on track when it came to income and expenses... especially when his and Daphne's child was born. He closed the finance book and put it in the drawer in his desk.

There was a knock on the doorframe of his study. Looking up, he saw Daphne. She smiled when she had his attention and asked, "Have you thought about the offer Hades had for you?"

Harry sighed. Not for the first time, he wondered if he had done the right thing by telling his wives about Hades's offer to become the god of life and death. "I haven't given it much thought at all. I just don't want all of that power. I just want to take care of you and Susan and raise our family."

"I think you should take the offer," she replied.

Harry was about to speak, when he felt the ground shaking. What was going on? Then he felt the anger coming from below. Was it Gaea? It had to be. Something bad was happening. "I'll think about it," he told Daphne. "I think I need to go after Percy. I have a feeling that he is indeed in San Francisco." His face was pale as he looked up at her.

Daphne nodded. "Then you should go. Susan and I can stay here or go stay with your dad, but we will be okay while you are gone." She kissed her husband's cheek. "Go, find your friend."

Harry nodded and stood up. "I'll go pack now and get everything set up. Maybe dad should come here instead, so that you and Susan can be safe here and not have to pack up your stuff for however long I'm gone. I don't know how long that will be." Walking over to Daphne, Harry wrapped his arms around her. "I love both of you, and I want you safe while I'm gone… Please take care of each other."

"We will," Daphne said. "Don't worry about us. We also have the elves to help us as well, and I agree that we should ask your dad to come stay over with us."

Harry made sure that his bag was packed full of clothes for a three week trip at least, potions, a two-way mirror, and a two-way box so things could be passed between the two worlds. Then he firecalled his dad.

"Hey, Harry, what's up?" James asked as he answered the call.

"I'm going back to find Percy. Would you mind coming to stay with the girls here to keep them company and help them with anything they need?"

"Of course, son." James looked thoughtful. "Are you sure you can find and help your friend?"

"I will. I have to." Harry said. "Please come over now if you can. I'm going to say goodbye to the girls and then head on over."

"Sure, I'll be right there. Step aside?"

Harry gathered Susan and Daphne. "I'm sorry, but I have to go now," he said as his dad stepped through the floo. "Dad will stay with you both so that none of you are alone. I'm going to go find Percy and help him out. I don't know how long it will take, but I have to try."

"It's okay," Susan said. The girls both kissed Harry goodbye.

Harry smiled and waved, half of him wanted to stay but the other half knew that he had to go. He activated the Potter artifact and stepped through the portal.

A/N: Another cliffhanger? Sorry, not sorry. Lol. :D
