A new start (A Percy Jackson story)

Triton

Chapter 6: Triton
DISCLAIMER:I really wish I was Rick Riordan...

"If it isn't Perseus Jackson..."

DISCLAIMER:I really wish I was Rick Riordan...

"If it isn't Perseus Jackson..."

Oh no!

"Hello, my lady" he said with a small bow, before giving a pleading look to his father, who just looked at Amphitrite, before saying "Amphitrite, I see you have returned from your sisters, I thought you were staying for at least two weeks more." "Ah, well dear husband, when Triton IM-ed me to update me on what was going on in the palace, and he started complaining about his "brother" coming over, I just had to come and see if it was true" She replied,

Percy wasn't usually one to care about what gods and goddesses called him, but the way she said brother, as if he was some sort of infectious disease, made him uncomfortable, and a tiny bit...hurt? Amphitrite continued "And since it is true, I'm just wondering, what is he doing here?" At this Percy saw his father tense, giving Amphitrite a warning look that said 'We will talk about this later'. "Well since this is MY home and he is MY son, I saw nothing wrong with him staying here." Poseidon replied with a hint of anger in his voice. It looked like she had gotten the hint, and didn't want to anger her husband further, so she gave Percy a cold look, before turning sharply and swimming of.

"Sorry about that Perce, I didn't think she'd be home before in a few weeks" Poseidon sighed. Percy just gave his father a small smile "It's alright dad, however much I wanted to be here with you alone, I guess it's better to get all the not-so-pleasant stuff out of the way as soon as possible."

"Thank you for understanding, Perseus. Well then, lets get the last unpleasantness out of the way, come on! Triton is this way!" His father said before turning, and walking toward the palace, with Percy jogging to catch up. Triton was standing in front of a large window, gazing out over Atlantis, when they entered "Hello father, brother, what brings you here?" He said, without turning around.

"As you know Triton, Perseus is going to stay here with us for a while.. I was wondering if you would show him around"

Percy and Triton looked at their father with equally shocked expressions. Triton was the first to break the silence, "What!?" Followed closely by Percy "Thats really not necessary..."

"Do not argue with me, boys!"

"Yes, my lord.." Triton said, his face rid of all emotion.

"Sorry, dad.." Percy mumbled, showing a sudden interest in his shoes.

"Now go! Triton, show Perseus the dining hall first as we will be eating shortly, but he needs to change first!"

Triton turned sharply and walked before stopping, turning, and saying "Are you coming or what?" Percy sent one last look to his father, before hurrying of as to not anger his brother further.

Walking along the halls, Percy got a chance to study his brother more closely, the first thing he noticed was the resemblance, they had the same hair, although Tritons was a bit longer than his. The same facial structure, high cheekbones and the same small button nose, which Annabeth and the Aphrodite cabin called 'extremely cute' Tritons face and nose however, was just a tiny bit more angular, giving him a more 'strict' look. The biggest difference was his eyes, they were a cold ice-blue color. Poseidon had told Percy that most of his children, were born with brown-green or a kind of murky blue or green eyes. The sea-green color Poseidon and Percy had, only very few had, the last one was Theseus, and he didn't have eyes as green as Percy and his father. Last time Percy had seen his brother, he had green-blue skin, fins and two tails, now he looked as human as a god could.

"Father told me to show you your room first so you can change before dinner, then I'll show you the dining hall, come on!" Triton broke of Percy's musing, his voice showing as much annoyance as it possibly could.

"Father decided that your room should be in the royal hall, I don't know why though" He continued, grumbling the last part.

Triton led Percy through several halls, and in to a large throne room. There was three thrones in one end, and two marble staircases starting five meters apart, before curling and meeting at the top, in the other end. Between the to staircases, in the throne room, there was a large golden door, with a beautiful path of golden patterns on the floor, leading to the thrones.

Triton and Percy walked up one of the stairs and through another golden door, directly above the door in the throne room. They walked through a few other halls, before reaching a hall, much larger than the others.

There were three doors, the one in the middle was grander than the other two, with the same golden patterns that Percy had seen around the palace. All the doors where made out of a beautiful, white stone that shone in different colors. The other two doors had the same patterns, but in silver. The one at the left had green gems engraved in the door, the one in the middle had blue, green and clear, white gems. The one on the right, that they had stopped in front of, had beautiful blue gems.

Triton opened the door and stepped inside "This is your room, it's not much at the moment, but I'm sure father can get whatever furniture you want"

"Are you kidding me!? It's amazing! It's bigger than the entire apartment in New York!" Percy looked with amazement, the room was gigantic! There wasn't much inside, but the things that were there were gigantic! It was a blue king bed full of pillows in different shades of blue, which must've been meant for at least ten men, a flatscreen taking almost half a wall, placed so you could see it from the bed, as well as the long blue comforter. In the middle of the room there was a circular pool in the floor (underwater pool... smart right?) There were two doors leading to other rooms (not counting the one they came from) One to the bathroom, it didn't look like a bathroom though... it was a large room with marble columns and beautiful underwater flowers. The "bathroom" had a "bathtub" (A marble pool, that was halfway above ground, with marble stairs leading up to it in the front) the size that Ms. O'Leary could use, There was a "shower" (A freaking underwater waterfall with a pond underneath!)

The other door led to the walk-in-closet... walk-in-closet! Bigger than his old room in New York! The shelves and racks were already filled with new shoes, sneakers and converse in all colors, even greek sandals! There where hundreds of shirts and jeans in different colors (mostly blue though)

Meanwhile Triton studied his half-brother's amazed state with interest, he had thought that he would be one of those ungrateful brats that his father sometimes brought over. They were hard to please, they should've been honored to be allowed to come here! Perseus had an entirely different reaction, he looked happy, even though there only was a few pieces of furniture. Perseus hadn't come with one snarky remark, just listening. Maybe he wasn't as bad?

Where were these thoughts coming from!? He is my father's bastard! I'm supposed to hate him!

Maybe Perseus is just a little bit harder to hate?

There will be bonding (hopefully next chapter) but there are some things that you need to know later in the story which is why I do these filler-chapters:)
