Psychokinetic Disaster (Percy Jackson Fanfiction)

Chapter Seven - FINAL -

The Olympians were getting ready to pounce. The seven of them were talking in hushed voices. Hades would occasionally glance at Percy but say nothing. The brunette felt the shiver down his spine before it happened. The man's gaze was meant to make Percy uncomfortable. Maybe that was the purpose of him silently glaring at Percy—because he didn't look out for his son.

He sat on a lone couch and fiddled with his fingers. Jason was busy being interrogated by one of those seven Olympians therefore Percy had no one to talk to. Someone cleared their throat. Percy looked up and was surprised to see the man he had been looking at when he first came into the room. The man was definitely in his thirty's and he had green eyes as well. Percy gulped inwardly at the sight of a perturbing older version of him.

"May I sit with you?" The man asked, gesturing to the couch. Percy scooted to give the man space. "Go ahead." Percy's voice croaked. As the man sat, the teen kept his head lowered. The tension was recognizable. The man coughed awkwardly, grabbing Percy's attention. "So, Nico di Angelo," he started. "He's a friend." Percy shrugged, looking at his feet. "What's your name, boy?" the man asked curiously. Percy glanced up at him for a moment. "Percy Jackson."

The man's eyes widened as his back straightened. "P-Percy." He stuttered. "Yes?" the teen mumbled, looking at the man nervously. Unknown to them, the room had calmed and had been listening in on the ongoing conversation. "I'm Poseidon Jackson," the man said. Percy knew there was an odd resemblance between them and after hearing those words, he knew who he was at an instant. "Dad." He whispered. Arms wrapped around him as he was pulled into a bear hug. Truth be told, it had been long since he has seen his mother, traveling all the way here to stay with his friends. He heard news of her acquainting with this guy, Paul Blofis though.

Percy has never seen the guy but he hoped he wouldn't hurt her. Slowly, he wrapped his arms around his biological father and for the first time, felt hot tears prick his eyes. It was a silent cry as he relished the warmth of his father. When they pulled back, he saw that the old man had tears in his eyes too. They laughed and wiped them off.

"That was a nice reunion and all but I have a son who needs saving." Hades broke the silence, making them turn their heads to his direction. "Right." Poseidon sighed and stood. Percy stood up as well, ready to go. "Oh no, young man. You're staying here. We don't want to cause any more trouble than there already is. Plus, we don't want you involved in this mess." Jupiter intervened, stopping Percy. What? Percy fumed. "He's my friend! I have every right to worry about him and help him since I got him captured in the first place! If I were there, I could have prevented them from taking him." He defended.

But Jupiter was having none of this. The Olympians were already walking out and into the vehicle parked outside. Unexpectedly, his father clamped a hand on his shoulder. "Jupiter, or Zeus, is right. It's not that we think you're useless. We just don't want others to be involved in these kinds of situations. You're my son whom I just found out is still alive," Poseidon said. "Wow. Rude." Percy scoffed softly. "If Gaea was there and she did something horrible to you, I would never forgive myself." Poseidon sighed.

"You stopped caring when you left mom. What's there to worry about?" Percy dropped his gaze. Poseidon frowned and ruffled his hair. "Trust me, it wasn't my choice. I had to keep you safe and joining the Olympians was the only way. The Andromeda, which I believe you already know, is keeping track of us to ruin us. We had to move to different places and back to lose their signal." Poseidon said. "I'm sorry I was never there to see you grow up to the man you are now. But I'll make up for it, once everything is settled." Poseidon smiled warmly at the brunette.

Percy's chest lightened and he smiled back at his father although not as enthusiastically. "I'll see you when we get back. Jason, keep watch over Percy." Poseidon announced, waving at Jason. Percy sighed, watching the man call himself his father walk out of the door and into the vehicle that were supposed to take him to the DL2F Laboratories.
