Hey guys :) I have adopted this story and it is my first time writing Percy Jackson so I hope I do my best and please point out my mistakes and other stuff.

Ps. SPECIAL THANKS TO: ThAt DaM fAnFiCtIoNeR

Enjoy!

The boy was small for his age and was sitting on a bed in an apartment, in New York and he was very tired, and sore. Bruises littered under his shirt and pants, Gabriel or Smelly Gabe, never hurt him where he couldn't hide it from his mother. That boy was 5 years old; he had raven black hair, sea green eyes and skinny.

"Better watch it PERY JACKSON!" yelled the man, it was the time he came home for lunch and would beat him up before going back to work. Exactly 1230 pm the man always came home.

His mother wasn't due to come home for exactly another 7 hours so he had 3 hours alone until Gabe came home from work, after he had left the second time.

Every time at 1235 Gabe would say it was time for "Man Lessons", which consisted of beatings. If he didn't cry out or cry he would get less, but since he was a child the screams always came and with that tears.

The tears were from shame and humiliation; his mother didn't know what was going on, when she left for work each morning, and his father, who had left before he was born..... Gabe said "he didn't care about a brat like him."

*CLICK*

Percy watched as his bedroom door opened and their stood, an overweight man, with a bald head and very dark eyes, glaring holes into him.

"YOU!" he yelled. "You never cleaned the kitchen after your friends came over!" Smelly Gabe yelled and lifted the boy up by the collar of his shirt. His other hand had a bottle of beer in hand was empty.

"P Please D D Don't hurt me please" Gabe only smirked and slapped the child across the face leaving a hand print that was rapidly turning red and later it would be a bruise.

"Take it like a man WIMP!" Gabe yelled as he dropped the child to the floor and kicked him landing a fatal blow to his ribs

*CRACK*

Percy screamed in pain, Gabe then lifted him up and slammed him over his shoulder and threw him in the back seat of his ford 4x4 truck, it was an ugly colour shade of red, almost like rust. Or a rotten banana.

Percy screamed again in agony then passed out from pain, Gabe drove a couple miles and dumped him in front of a dumpster, which was sort of far from the regular humans, yet none paid any attention to the lump on the ground.

(Percy third p.o.v)

Percy awoke with pain and cried and bit his lip from sobbing. Sniffling he stood up and almost screamed in pain he looked down and lifted his shirt to see an exposed bone by his rib cage. Percy knew he had to hide it, or Gabe would find him, and beat him harder than before, so he reached and pulled an old towel from the dumpster and tied it around his waist in pain he stood up and began to walk slowly. Back the way he knew where his home was and make up an excuse for why he was late. Percy stumbled onto the sidewalk and limped biting his lip. He didn't expect anyone to come down the sidewalk but one man did...

He looked at the man, the man stopped in front of him, he had the same Sea Green eyes as him, A t-shirt on, and some faded blue shorts on.

Percy backed up from the man, and looked at the man, but the man only smiled as he knelt down to Percy's height. (Ok it's obviously his dad but his dad doesn't know its Percy)

"Are you alright, son?" he had a soft deep voice that made Percy feel safe.

Son?

"Yyes I'm fine mister b but I have to go home." Percy stammered out, and looked down fearfully.

"I see, and what might your name be?"

"I not supposed to talk to strangers." The child said and shuffled his feet so his rib wouldn't hurt as much as it did right now.

"Ahhhhh, I see but what if I tell you my name, then we won't be strangers now will we?" Percy pondered this then nodded simply.

"Ok, my names Poseidon" He said smiling and holding out his hand.

"Po what?" Poseidon laughed but Percy stood there confused.

"Ok now tell me your name little one" he said and waited.

"My name is Per " The child's voice was interrupted by a truck engine revving down the street and stopped next to the two as the window rolled down the boy winced it was smelly Gabe. Gabe glared at Poseidon and grumbled "Perseus Jackson get in the car NOW!"

At that moment Poseidon understood completely this is my son, Perseus, and that was his abusive step father. Poseidon snapped his fingers as Gabe fell onto the steering wheel asleep.

Percy stood watching the man in awe.

"W What happened" Percy's small voice rang out, Poseidon stood and held Percy close to him as they walked down the sidewalk.

"Walk with me Perseus" he said.

"Wait how do you know my " Percy started before the man interrupted him.

"You can ask questions later"

"Who are you?" They boy asked still in awe obviously not following the rule the man gave him 2 seconds ago

The man stopped and looked at the boy and said "I am your father Percy now come"

A/N: that is it folks! I have done chapter 1, can anyone be nice and review?
