The Sea's Grandson

Chapter 1: New York City

Hi, I'm Lukas Grover Daedalus Jackson. And, look and didn't ask to be the son of the great Perseus Achilles Jackson.

Imagine being stuck in a car with 4 hyperactive demigods. Welcome to my life. It felt like hours but I knew it had only been 17 minutes. 17 minutes of sitting in between of my younger siblings so they wouldn't fight, spoiler alert they did anyway. It was the summer so my family was visiting New York. Ya know, visiting Grandma Sally, Aunt Stella (Estelle if anyone was confused), and Camp Half-Blood. I plugged in my earbuds into my demigod safe phone, courtesy of my Tio Leo. The one thing getting me through this car ride was remembering that it would only last 13 more minutes. 13 minutes until I shadow traveled to Grandma Sally's penthouse.

I miss Grandma Sally, sometimes I feel like she's the only sane member of my family. Even Aunt Stella is a little crazy. I went onto Apple Music and started playing my favorites playlist a song called Zero, it was written by some old, now a washed-up band called Imagine Dragons. I liked their music though.

OOOOOOOO FANCY TIME SKIP OOOOOOOO

We arrived at the agreed meeting place. The place where we would be meeting with Uncle Nico and Mrs. O'Leary to shadow travel. My mother got out of the car. She was only beaten by Zoey who ran up to Uncle Nico and hugged him. My father and brother, Chase, followed them. I reluctantly got out of the car after putting my phone and earbuds into my backpack.

My mother and father were catching up with Nico when I got out of the car. I simply nodded at him to say hello, Nico understands what it's like to feel like you don't fit into the picture. That's why I feel more comfortable around him than the rest of my parents' friends.

My father then spoke, "Who's traveling with who?" We came up with the logical solution of my dad, Chase, and me riding on Mrs. O'Leary and My mother and sister traveling with Nico.

Time skip to arriving in New York because I'm lazy ------------

I inhaled the nasty air of New York City and made a face. The air was so unclean, it was disgraceful how the city took care of the environment. Disgusting, even. Sorry about that, Aunt Piper and my godfather, Grover are rubbing off on me, I'm even Vegan. That does not mean I like That Vegan Teacher, she's such a beach I think she might be Hera in disguise. Thunder rumbled after that thought. Fudge, I forgot Zeus could read minds.

My mother, Zoey and Uncle Nico walked out of the shadows next to us. My father said, "Thanks, Neeks." "Don't call me Neeks, Aquaman." Nico walked into the shadow and was followed by Mrs. O'Leary who gave each of us a kiss before leaving. We were soaked. We walked up to the front door of Grandma Sally's apartment complex and Mom rang the doorbell and said, "Hello, we're here to see Mrs. and Mr. Blofis, they live in the penthouse." "Names." My father spoke this time, "Percy Jackson, Annabeth Jackson, Lukas Jackson, Chase Jackson, and Zoey-Charlotte Jackson." There was a buzz and the door opened.
