Poseidon's Daughter; A Percy Jackson Fanfiction

Winter Solstice

Y/n's POV

Before I knew it, we were breaking through the clouds of Manhattan. Both times I had traveled to Olympus, I had taken the elevator up to the 600th floor. This time though, we flew right to it. At the peak of the mountain, a glowing white palace was seating the gods. I hadn't wanted to face them, especially after Zeus threatened to kill Percy and I last time, but I knew we had to. The pegasi set us down at the gates, and after we wished them goodbye, to we started the trek up the mountainside. In the throne room, each of the seats were occupied by a person at least 15 feet tall.

"Welcome, heroes," Artemis greeted. 

"Mooo!" 

That's when I saw Bessie and Grover. A sphere of water was hovering next to the hearth in the center of the room, and Bessie was swimming around happily inside of it. Grover, on the other hand, was kneeling at Zeus' throne, but when he saw us, he abandoned his post and ran over to the four of us. He pulled us all in for a huge group hug, and I smiled, hugging him and the others tightly.

"Bessie and I made it!" Grover cheered before his face dropped. "But you have to convince them! They can't do it!" 

Percy frowned. "Do what?" 

"Heroes!" Artemis called and slid off from her throne, turning into the human sized young girl I was used to seeing. "The Council has been informed of your deeds. They know that Mount Othrys is rising in the West. They know of Atlas's attempt for freedom, and the gathering armies of Kronos. We have voted to act. At my Lord Zeus's command, my brother Apollo and I shall hunt the most powerful monsters, seeking to strike them down before they can join the Titans' cause. Lady Athena shall personally check on the other Titans to make sure they do not escape their various prisons. Lord Poseidon has been given permission to unleash his full fury on the cruise ship Princess Andromeda and send it to the bottom of the sea. And as for you, my heroes..." she trailed off and faced the others gods. "These half-bloods have done Olympus a great service. Would any here deny that?" 

"I gotta say, these kids did okay," Apollo spoke and went to start a poem.

"Um, yes," Hermes interrupted. "First class. All in favor of not disintegrating them?" 

"Wait just a minute," Ares growled and pointed at Thalia and Percy. "These two are dangerous. It'd be much safer, while we've got them here." 

"Ares," Poseidon interjected. "They are worthy heroes. We will not blast my son to bits." 

"Nor my daughter," Zeus added. "She has done well." 

"And what about Y/n? She has disgraced me and-"

Poseidon cut Ares off. "Ares, you are just upset that she put you in your place. She spoke back to you when others typically do not. And I am proud of her for that. Very proud. You will not lay a single finger on her, you understand?"

"Yes, Poseidon," Ares grumbled.

"Thanks, dad," I say and send Poseidon a small smile.

Athena cleared her throat and sat forwards. "I am proud of my daughter as well. But there is a security risk here, with Percy and Thalia. Maybe even Y/n if this prophecy has been about her all along."

"Mother!" Annabeth cried out. "How can you-" 

"It is unfortunate," Athena intervened, "that my father, Zeus, and my uncle, Poseidon, chose to break their oath not to have more children. Only Hades kept his word, a fact that I find ironic. As we know from the Great Prophecy, children of the three elder gods, such as Thalia, Percy, and Y/n, are dangerous. As thickheaded as he is, Ares has a point."
