Percy groaned as he woke up. Next to him was Annabeth and Nico and he looked around and saw it looked like he was in a giant theater room. "WHO DARES KIDNAP THE GODS?!" a familiar voice of his uncle called.

"Shut up," a voice spoke. A familiar voice.

"Mom?!" Percy called, echoed by another.

"Teddy?!" Percy yelled.

"Hey Perce, where's mom?" His blue haired godbrother called. They could see Poseidon looking around frantically trying to find Sally Jackson, but it was Hades and Thanatos that found her the quickest and were already helping her up.

"Hemlock?" a know it all voice called.

"Oh fuck no," Sally responded ad the demigods looked confused. The gods also looked confused other than Hades and Thanatos. Apollo actually had a look of realization. His eyes were wide as he looked at Sally Jackson and how she stood confidentially next to Thanatos who gave the know it all voice a glare.

"Ah, I always wanted to meet the thestral child," Luna Lovegood spoke up in a dreamy tone. Hecate in the back let out a startled laugh and even Sally suddenly looked amused.

"What?" Percy asked in confusion, echoed by his father who had moved to Sally's side, questioning why his brother and Thanatos were nearby.

"Where have you been?!" the know it all voice called.

"Away from you," Sally responded, slipping past Poseidon and going to hug her sons.

"But—"

"She wanted to be away from you, can't blame her," Teddy and Percy's godfather Neville Longbottom spoke up.

"Excuse me?!"

"You're excused," the brothers' uncle Draco drawled out.

"Aw, do we get to meet the god ickle Hemlock fucked?" George Weasley teased.

"Indeed we do, Georgie," Fred Weasley spoke up, eyeing the man who looked almost exactly like Percy.

Three voices cleared their throats giving the wizards and witches figurative heart attacks thinking Umbridge had returned from the dead and multiplied herself. They turned and face three woman.

"We are the Fates," they said in sync. They ginroed the twin reactions from Percy and Sally. "We were you all here today to witness the life of Hemlock Potter or as the gods and demigods would know her as, Sally Jackson."

"Gods?! They don't exist?!"

"Hermione, they do," another voice suddenly groaned. A redhead that looked like the twins who spoke earlier turned to Sally, "Hemlock, I swear on my magic that I am sorry about my jealousy towards you and how I had acted after the war."

"Ronald Weasley spoke the truth, no need to prove it," Hecate spoke up.

"You're mom's a witch?" Annabeth asked Percy quietly.

"And Teddy's a wizard," Percy answered. He wasn't too sure how Annabeth would react to Teddy's werewolf status if she had reacted badly to Tyson's Cyclops status. Yes, Percy had brothers that would be classified as monsters, but he didn't treat them as such if they were nice. In fact, Percy knew about his mom's magic and his brother's wolf status before finding out he was a demigod. He had askedhis mother about why Gabe was around and she had revealed that if she had done a charm to hide his scent than she would have to be around him 24/7 and he would've still had to go to camp eventually. She also revealed that if Teddy had shifted than she would've gotten rid of Gabe. Percy remembered teddy looking guilty until his mom revealed that she had already put charms on Gabe to make him not hurt any of them. At first she had been in trouble because they couldn't use magic on no-majs until it was revealed the reason why. But, after all that time, he still never knew his mom's past. He only knew about her witch status.

"We do exist," Zeus grumbled with lightning cracking around him.

"I am not that dramatic," Thalia Grace grumbled to her cousins.

Soon, Thalia, Percy, Annabeth, Nico (who was looking at Sally with even more confusion on her deathly aura), Clarisse, Grover, and Will introduced themselves. Hermione's jaw had dropped. The Olympians plus Hecate, Hestia, Hades, and Thanatos introduced themselves. Hermione, Ron, Neville, Fred and George, Luna, and Draco introduced themselves. Then Sally stood up and introduced herself with both names, claiming she will respond to either name. Sally was glad she didn't have to reveal her real status yet. At least the fates knew a Potter's need for a dramatic reveal.

Then the Fates spoke once again, "Before we start, Thanatos had been working on something for his descendant," well their went that reveal, at least it wasn't the Mistress of Death reveal.

"Thanatos has a descendant?" Annabeth claimed.

The God of Death cleared his throat and suddenly a butterfly appeared above Sally and Percy.

"Well, since Chiron isn't here," Hecate said, "Hail Perceus Potter and Hemlock Potter descendants of Thanatos."

"Wow," Nico said in slight awe. It still didn't explain why Sally looked like she was still in her twenties.

"I'm still not your type," Percy teased. Nico pouted and grabbed Will's arm almost possessively.

"Oh, that's why Luna called him a thestral," Draco realized.

"What's a thestral?" Percy asked.

"It's a horse that can only be seen if you've seen death," Sally said, not revealing why she was able to see them because originally she thought it was because her mom died in front of her, but now she wondered if it was her paternal ancestry.

"Anyway," Thanatos spoke and pointed behind them.

"PUP!/PRONGSLETTE!" two male voices spoke up.

Sally's eyes widen and she stood up. She recognized one name and instinctively knew the other. A man with dark crazy curly hair bust in with circle glasses like Sally's and ran for her with an older man with black hair, pale skin, and silver eyes running behind.

A redheaded woman with green eyes strolled in and smiled slightly as the two men hugging the now sobbing Sally Jackson. "Can I hug my daughter now?"

"No!" the two men yell.

"James Potter and Sirius Black let Lily hug her daughter!" Remus Lupin yelled.

"DAD?!" Teddy beamed and sped over to the scarred man.

"Moony's no fun," Sirius pouted as Sally/Hemlock went to go hug Lily. The two went over to Percy. "I'm your grandfather and this is your mom's godfather," James said.

Percy didn't give an audible response, but he hugged then saw his mom hugging who he could only assume to be his grandmother. He looked at the god who he now knew was his ancestor and mouthed 'Thank you' only to get a nod back.

They all took their seats. Poseidon tried to sit with Sally, only to be glared at by James, Sirius, and Remus, before thrown out by Thanatos who took his seat. Poseidon grumbled and went to sit behind them with Hades and Nico who couldn't help but look at him in sympathy. It wasn't a secret that Poseidon was absolutely fascinated by Sally Jackson or as they now knew as Hemlock Potter. But now with protective relatives back from the dead, good luck to the God of Seas.
