Percy Pov

I cried in fear as I watched my stepfather kill my adoptive mother shortly after his eyes turned to pure gold. I turned my stepfather still tearing my mom apart as I could tell by the snapping of bones and I ran not knowing what else to do me being five years old.

It wasn't long after that I heard my stepfather yelling though. I had to keep running because if I dared hesitate or look back my stepfather would catch up to me and kill me though I knew he was very close by the heavy footfalls following me I hadn't paid attention of where I was going until I bumped into someone.

She was glaring at my stepfather chasing me with a bow and arrow in hand. "Stop there or I will shoot you," the woman said.

"Ah, granddaughter, nice to see you too. So my suspicion of him being your son was correct?" My stepfather questioned.

"Die now, Titan!" The woman exclaimed before firing an arrow at my stepfather. It hit him in the face and his body dissolved into ash.

After he turned to dust the woman turned to me and looked me over for any cuts of bruises asking me if I was alright, I nodded.

Suddenly the wind started picking up and a vworping noise could be heard as something materialized next to us.

"So he finally returns," the woman mused.

As soon as the noise stopped a man came running out followed by two others, a man and a woman.

"Doctor, what's so important that you can't tell us?" The 2nd man asked but was ignored as the other man named the Doctor spotted us.

"Artemis, Percy are you two alright?!" He asked us frantically.

"Yes sir but how do you know my name?" I questioned.

"Well Percy, I'm your dad am I not supposed to know your name." The Doctor joked.

"Doctor!" Artemis yelled.

"Artemis!" The Doctor yelled back.

Artemis sighed, "Doctor, you know why he can't come with me or go to camp yet. You need to take him with you."

"Why? Was he in danger?" The Doctor asked.

"Yes! Kronos nearly killed him he needs to go with you now you, can't put it off any longer. You must take our son with you. He is as much timelord as he is god so take him with you, into your TARDIS and show him the universe. He needs to have every benefit he can get to defeat Kronos, Gaea, and the Master and you know that Doctor." Artemis ranted.

The Doctor seemed to grow older before my very eyes as he said very seriously, "yes mam."

"I'm confused Doctor, who are they." The other man asked.

"Jack, Rose, this is my son, Percy, and his mother, Artemis, goddess of the hunt, moon, childbirth, and maidens." My dad replied.

"So you have a half god kid, that's new." The girl identified as Rose murmured to herself.

Suddenly we heard howling in the distance. My mom turned to look at me and pulled out a bow and a quiver of arrows handing them to me. "The quiver refills automatically and just imagine them as a ring on your finger and that is what they will be and they will always come back to you now go with your father into his box."

"Come on son time to go," my dad said as he grabbed my shoulder.

We walked into my dad's box and I found myself shell shocked because the box was bigger on the inside and so beautiful. I saw the console and immediately walked up to it and touched it and it showed me how to control it.

I realized that the box was a sentient being and so I said one thing to it, "Hello."

A loud noise followed and my dad said, "She likes you." As he ran about the control room pulling levers and pushing buttons and then with a yell of, "allons- zy," he pulled the last lever and we started crashing.
