Chapter Text
Things had not been going well for one Perseus Jackson, son of Sally Jackson and some unknown man who had vanished from his life the moment he was born. Percy hadn’t had a easy life, having to transfer from school after school due to issues that were out of his hand, not to mention dealing with his asshole of a so called “step-father” Gabe Ugliano or Smelly Gabe as he tended to call the man in his head. Growing up with him, along with ADHD and his dyslexia and trying to hold down going to school was tough, and it only got tougher as he made it into High School. From bullies, to test, to the fact that on a class trip he had “Killed” his algebra teacher who turned out to be some sort of strange bat like monster was only adding a weird cherry to the top of the weird cake. Then came the news that his father wasn’t who he thought he was, his best friend being a Satyr, it was all growing more and more than what Percy could stand. Then he went from Percy Jackson, the weird kid at school who couldn’t stay in one school to save his life, to being Percy Jackson the new Demi-god to attend camp Hlaf-Blood, an unclaimed/undermined kid. The boy who had slayed the Minotaur who had been trying to kill him the night he tried to get into the camp and Percy turned around and completely killed him, though it was not without a loss in the form of the boy’s mother who he had watched die right before his eyes.
Since then, Percy had been attempting to try and fit in as well as try and figure out who his Godly parent was. He had been there for almost a complete week and yet nothing. He wasn’t fast like the children of Hermes, he wasn’t skilled at weapons crafting, or archery, or even at fighting-thank whatever god for that. As such when Friday had rolled and it was time for Capture The Flag he wasn;t exactly feeling all that excited or ready to battle any of his fellow campers, that and he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was gonna happen to him.
And like always, he was right.
~Scene Break~
And of course, he was right, something did go wrong.
After having defeated Clarisse and her siblings-how he had no idea-Annabeth had appeared and as much as he wanted to scream at her, he couldn’t as something from the forest attacked that something being none other than a Hellhound from the Underworld. Thankfully the Hellhound was stopped by Chiron who sniped it with a few arrows, once it was dead-leaving behind the spoil of war which looked almost like a sleeveless hoodie with a pair of fingerless gloves, all the campers had started pointing fingers and whispering at who could have summoned it. Some believed Percy had done it, and yet that was crushed when everyone turned to Percy and gasped.
"Oh Styx," Annabeth said, "I assumed it would be Zeus. Not him."
Now Percy was really confused until he looked up and saw why everyone was shocked. Right above his head, was a fading hologram of green light, and a spinning and gleaming three tipped spear: a trident.
"It is determined," Chiron announced.
All around Percy, campers started kneeling, even Ares cabin, though they didn't look happy about it. "My father?" Percy asked, completely bewildered.
Upon seeing the glowing trident over Percy’s head Chiron sighed rubbing the bridge of his nose, this was going to cause problems, no godly family was as closely knit as the children of Poseidon, be they god, Monster or Demigod they all loved and protected each other.
Since the Pact had been made their had been no new baby in the family to spoil, so all of them were going to spoil Percy beyond belief, and as if to prove his thought is correct under the trident and much smaller multiple symbols appeared so stealing his nerves Chiron said “All Hail Percy Jackson Son of Posiedon the Father of Horses, the Earthshaker, The lord of The Sea and Hurricanes,” Taking a breath Chiron continued “All Hail Percy Jackson Brother of Triton, Procrustes, Polyphemus, Arion, Antaeus, Pegasus, Chrysaor, Chrysomallus, Cercyon, Sciron, Theseus, Bellerophon, Neleus, Halirrhothius, Rhode, Kymopoleia, Despoina, and Charybdis”
Panting slightly after delivering the list of names, Chiron turned and saw every camper was confused on the listing of the siblings he could hear the questions and mutterings.
“What the Hades?!”
“Ho-How is that possible! No one’s ever been claimed like that!”
“Just how can he be claimed by all of them?!”
“He’s a cheat! He’s a cheat!”
Calls from all of the campers around them were echoing through the air, many of them were confused as they were shocked. How could Percy be claimed by not one, or not even two, but eighteen different ones. This made no sense to any of them, even the children of Athena Goddess of Wisdom and Battle Strategy were completely stumped by what was going on and couldn’t think of any reason as to why this has happened
“Now now, quiet down, I know everyone is curious. But let me assure you that this is normal for the Poseidon Family the siblings all claim each other and have just claimed Percy here as their baby brother so we should expect a few of them to visit camp soon.” Chiron said, clearing the confusion.
Gods...gods were coming to their camp? Gods from one of the twelve Olympian gods family were coming to their camp ...all to just see Percy. If there weren’t some campers who were envious of him before this only made it worse, many of the campers would kill for a chance to meet their godly parent, to see them in person, to speak with them, have them acknowledge them outside of things besides camps and being claimed. And yet, one camper, a son of the big three, was going to be visited by his father’s side of the family. In some of the campers, that envy that had taken place in their hearts, and soon it bloomed into cold fury. Was it because Percy was a son of Poseidon that made him special? Was it because he had slayed the Minotaur?
“How is that fair!” Yelled out one of the campers, an unclaimed child from the Hermes Cabin. “How come he gets to be visited by family while the rest of us don't even know who our parents are!”
“Yeah! What gives! The gods can’t even come to the camp! They never have! So what makes now so different!” Another unclaimed child called out, and soon whispers could be heard from the crowd of campers, some angered, some envious, some saddened, it was obvious to see that Percy getting visited by his father’s side of the family had opened up some wounds for some of the campers who felt like the gods didn’t love them or care about them enough to even claim them and just up and abandoned them when they got to camp.
Rearing up Chiron brought his front hooves down in a thundering sound that made everyone freeze and look at him only for some to flinch at the steel in his eyes as he turned towards the one that spoke out and proceeded to lecture them telling them that the rule only stops the divine parent from raising their child that at any time they could visit in camp but the politics of olympus stop them from doing so but there is no such limit on the divine siblings of the demigods, save the fact more then have of said siblings would rather kill a demigod then acknowledge them as a sibling.
Even with what Chiron said, that didn’t stop some of them from feeling envious of Percy. Even though many of them knew their godly parents did have divine children who would rather kill them than acknowledge them, that still made them resent Percy. And for campers in particular it made them glare at the son of the sea.
Chiron sent everyone back to their cabins as he led Percy to Cabin 3 to get settled in his new home. Though even as Chiron led him away, Percy could still feel some of the looks others were sending him. And if that wasn’t enough, he couldn’t help but feel as if someone was glaring holes into the back of his head and yet when he looked no one was there.
~Scene Break~
Within no time at all, Percy had managed to collect all his belongings from the Hermes Cabin. With some help from Luke, one of the very small margin of campers who didn’t hate Percy or was envious of him they managed to get all his belongings out and moved towards the Cabin of his father. Of course, Percy had to move it in himself as Luke couldn’t enter the Cabin and thus the son of the sea had to move his belongings in and when he did he was almost shocked when he saw what looked to be gifts, not one, or two, but well he could hardly keep track of them all. There were so many of them present right here before his very eyes.
Stacked upon one of the beds were gifts, and considering he was the only one in the cabin there wasn’t a doubt in his mind that they were all for him. He could easily see that some of them were weapons, some armor, and some things that Percy couldn’t even begin to name or even say he knew what they were. As he looked upon them, he took notice of something sitting right on the center of the bed, that something was a note with his name on the envelope.
