Poseidon's Kids

Chapter 5

Percy: "WHO- Why are you telling us this now?" Percy asked suspiciously, stepping away from his father and back towards his sister in a protective way.

Aqua: "Who's our older brother?" Aqua asked in such a quiet voice that she almost couldn't be heard.

Poseidon: "Well- He, um... His name is Harry Potter... He doesn't live in the US though. He lives in England... He's a wizard."

Percy: Percy looked at Aqua asking the same question - Is he crazy?!

Aqua: "A wizard... Does he know about this world?" Aqua remembered Poseidon telling her about wizards and witches that helped save the world as a bedtime story.

Poseidon: "Actually that was the news... He showed up at Sally's doorsteps randomly. He was hurt and bleeding and passed out a little after Sally opened the door. All he said was 'I found you mom' and passed out. Your mother came to Olympus herself and demanded that I gave you both right away and said that it was time for me to make good on my promise. So now we must go. Sally will tear down all of Olympus if I don't give her you two. Now come on, hold my hand so I can teleport you." Poseidon gave a sad smile hoping his children would return it. Instead, all he got was ignored and a sassy response.

Percy: "No thanks 'dAd' I'll use the water vapor trick again and I'm sure my sister would love to join me in another race." Percy looked heartbroken but also happy to have a sister and older brother. He looked at his sister and nodded his head up to the sky. She smiled at him.

Aqua: "You're on! Prepare to lose." She stuck out her tongue and dove into the water.

Percy: "Hey hold up! That's cheating!" Percy willed the current to make him swim faster to make him shoot up to the sky. "Hah! Still ahead of you!"

Aqua: "Oh please." Aqua yawned while she flew up into the sky towards Olympus. Suddenly she heard a scream below her.

Percy: "AHHHHHH!" Aqua sighed and let herself freefall down to where Percy was falling and caught his hand.

Aqua: "Hold on to my hand and use your water vapor trick to stay on balance."

Percy: "Sure and thanks." He looked up and smiled at her. She smiled back.

Aqua: "No problem bro." Together Aqua and Percy reached Olympus in a few seconds. They started walking towards the throne room. They creaked open the door and saw their mother standing inside with a body in her hands.
