Surprise My Uncle Is Batman

Chapter Six

"Have you ever heard of the Greek Gods?"

3rd Person POV

"So you are saying the Greek Gods are real and you have retrieved  Zeus's lightning bolt, sailed through the Sea of Monsters, held of the sky, made it through the Labyrinth alive, fought Kronos and defeated saved your camps once, got your memory taken by a goddess and sent to a Roman camp, sailed pretty muck all over Europe, went through Tartarus with your girlfriend and came out alive, defeated mother earth, and you are sitting here. Alive. Yah well, I don't believe you. Damian stated in quite a rude manor. 

It looked as if Bruce did not know what to think, Dick had a look on his face like he believed Percy but was maybe a little unsure. Why had Dick been so soft on Percy ever since he got here. It was unfair! Wait, was he jealous of Percy? No he was better than him, he could kick Percy's butt in a fight right?

"I do not know what else to tell you but I can show you something." And with that he sat up slowly with a grimace and pulled a  ballpoint pen out of his jeans and took the cap off. 

A sword about three to four feet long just looked like it had came out of the pen, but the sword was the pen. And the pen was the sword. What?

When Percy pulled the cap off a the sword came out Dick jumped back to not get poked in the eyeball by a sword and Bruce just stood there with one eyebrow raised to almost touching his hair line. 

"Who made you that sword?" Bruce asked.

"Nobody made it for me, well someone did make it but not for me. My father gave it to me." Percy replied. 

"Yah because your dad, Poseidon, gave it to you." Damian replied sarcastically. 

"Damian." Dick said with a warning to his voice. 

"Look I know you don't believe me, and I probably would not either if I were you. But I am not lying." Percy said trying to get a point a crossed. 

"What ever." Damian rolled his eyes. "But what else do you have to prove that."

Percy sighed deeply. "Well there is two things I have not shown you guys." 

Since Percy was already sitting he really did not have to move a lot, really just his arms. Percy stuck his arm out towards a glass of water. It came floating out of the glass towards Dick and Bruce flew around their heads, and was dropped out of mid air right on to Damian's shoes. 

"You son of a-" Damian sounded furious when he said that but Dick cut him off mid sentence. 

"How did you do that? Wait is that cause you are a son of Poseidon?" Dick practically asked himself. Percy did not say anything and just instead nodded his head.

"you know you are a big-" Damian cut himself off in mid sentence. "Wait you said there was another thing you would show if we did not believe you. What is it then?" 

Percy looked very nervous after Damian said the words he really hoped they would forget about after he showed them he could control water with his powers. He knew if he showed them they would ask questions and he really did not want to answer any. Besides he would get those awful looks of pity which he hated. 

"Come on you are not scared right?" Damian Said. 

Percy stiffened at that. He hated looking weak and scared. "Fine." He stated. 

Percy swung his legs over the side of the table/bed he was laying on. Made sure his back was facing Bruce, Dick, and Damian. And pulled he shirt over his head. He did not hear any horrifying gasps but knew that they probably had horrifying looks on their faces. 

Dick's POV

Percy's back was covered in scars, burns, whip marks, there was even a brand and tattoo with the initial K and T. The burn mark was the T and the tattoo was the K. His back... it was awful. No one should have to go through this. No one. 

"Pretty bad, is it not?" Percy said with a little chuckle. 

"No one is disagreeing with you." Damian said. He now actually sounded a little sorry for Percy. 

"Percy did this happen when you were in... Greek hell?" It was like Bruce did not want to say Tartarus. 

"Yah when Annabeth and I were down there one of the titans we just happen to defeat was down there too. Him and Tartarus wanted to break Annabeth and I. But I could not let them touch Annabeth. I would not let them touch her. So I took all her punishments, and they just made her watch." Percy's voice broke off. "I know it was just as bad as having it happen but I could not let them hurt Annabeth like they hurt me. I could not." Percy was practically in tears when he got done speaking, with his voice breaking off and on and with so many tears in his eyes almost to wear he was crying. He just looked broken. 

I walked over and say down next to him and put my hand on his back trying to miss scars and burn marks but that was very hard, because they were every where on his back. I did not say anything just sat there moving my hand in a small circle motion on his back soothingly.

That was when the damn broke. Percy had small slow tears running down his face but now big crocodile tears were pouring down his cheeks and he was sobbing. Bruce walked around the other side of the bed and sat on the other side of Percy and pulled his head onto his shoulder and let him cry onto it not caring if it got tear soaked. 

We probably sat there for five to ten minutes just letting Percy cry than gather himself. When he had gathered himself Damian walked around the same side of the bed I was on and bent down and looked Percy in the eyes. 

"I owe you an apology for early. All of the things I said were out of line and not right. I am sorry." Damian said in a real apologetic voice, not fake at all. 

Percy nodded his head up and down than said, "I am tired, it is like what three in the morning?" Percy was correct it was 2:56, practically three in the morning. "Night you guys." He said and walked out of the room toward his own room he was staying in. 

Percy's POV

Going back to bed they will probably think I am going to have another nightmare, but I won't. telling them that stuff and getting off my chest I think I will be just fine tonight. Which is great because I am so tired and need to get some rest.
