"talking"

'thinking'

'system'

 The girl lying in her bed stands up and stretches while holding a book in right hand "uuhhh~. Now time to use the bathroom." She sets the book down on the desk beside the bed Percy Jackson the last Olympian. In the need to use the bathroom she completely missed her dog, Bullet lying on the floor in front of the dresser and tripping over him. "oh shit!" Hitting the corner of the dresser and slamming to the ground.

Ow that hurt so dam bad. I try to reach my hand up and touch the side of my head. key word. Try. my hand doesn't move. I try to open my eyes they don't. aw fucking shit come onnnn what the hell is happening... ok new plan don't freak out. Guess what I didn't do that either. wtf wtf wtf whatadoido. then I hear a voice. "Oh my babies mommy will take care of you no matter what okay." no no. no. this is not what I think it is. I swear if I'm about to be birthed again and go through puberty again I'm gonna be so pissed. Well it was exactly what I thought is was and i am in fact born. I also seem to have a twin but cant see for shit so I cant really tell but I guess that's a normal baby thing.

A brown haired woman laying back against the hospital bed she was in, holding two pink babies to her chest. The door to the room opened making the woman to look up and see who it is " sally." a man he had black hair and green eyes that seemed to hold the sea itself and wore sun bleached jeans a Hawaiian shirt with the top buttons undone. "the babies are.. are they alright." the man says as he walks closer to the bed "there fine-""they are you're sure?" sally smiles and nods for the man to come closer. "yes no extra or missing eyes. A boy and a girl Perseus and Elysia." as if responding to there names Elysia started squirming. Percy began whining at his sisters movement the man reached out as if going to pick one of them up but stopped himself. sally laughed exhausted but "it seems like Elysia wants you to hold her." the man looks at sally and back at Elysia and reaches down to pick her up. holding her with her head in the crook of his left elbow and his right hand under her back.

"pfft. looks like she can tell its her daddy." sally looks at the man with a soft smile while he cant seem to stop staring down at the baby girl in his arms. suddenly sally's expression turns severe as she looks down at baby Percy who had already fallen asleep and then back at the man. "how long Poseidon. how long." the man- Poseidon looks up but doesn't say anything immediately neither does sally. After a moment he says "i cant stay much longer but if you accept my offer-""no you already know how i feel about that. i want them to be able to be children not solders not hero's children for as long a I'm able to give them that. Even-." sally stops for a moment to collect herself shifting Percy over to rest in one arm to wipe at her eyes. "Even if it means they wont be able to know you as there father."

Poseidon look back down at his daughter and sighed leaning down to place her down into her mothers arms. "i know" he said as Elysia began to wiggle around turning her little head as best as she could to look back and forth between them both "now now little one why don't you join your brother in sleep." Poseidon huffs out as he places his hand over the babes eyes and softly strokes her head before straightening back up and looking at sally. sally stares back as he starts speaking again "then what do you plan to do it'll be difficult taking care of both of them on your own."

sally mumbles while looking down at the two sleeping babies "I'll figure it out we'll be fine." she shift Percy closer to her so she's able to use her hand to pry Percy's fist he's tried to eat in his sleep from his mouth. Poseidon clenched his fist for moment then flexed his hand out. somewhere in the isolated middle of the sea waves started to rise with a mild fury. "sally at least let me give you a place to raise the children safely, i do not want my children living somewhere.." he trailed off before speaking again "at least let me have this so i can be reassured you all will be provided for."

"hello Ms.Jackson i have your discharge papers here, all you need to do is look through them and sign then we'll help you outside" the nurse Mrs.Malts said while hand sally the papers. "take take your time i will be back with you soon."

As the nurse left a man entered the room surprising sally "Poseidon. i- you said you couldn't be here any longer." he closed the door behind him "i shouldn't but i wanted to be the one to show you the place i got ready for you and the children. as well as give you this." he held his hand out holding a card, sally looked at the card then back up at him "i cant take this" "yes, you can its for the children and you. if you cant use it for yourself use it just for the children but keep it, i wont take it back."

"Alright, i'll keep it." she takes the card and puts it in her purse sitting on top of her bags sitting on the floor in front of her bed

sally pushing a bassinet stroller was lead by Poseidon to a black SUV. she spoke as he put her bags in the "thank you for coming to help." "there's no need, i wanted to at least do this." he stepped around opening the backseat door showing two car seats reaching into the stroller and picking up Percy and buckling him in. sally stood still watching him handle Percy so gently before picking Ely up walking to the other side of the car and buckling her into the other one. when she walked back to the back of the car he had already folded up the stroller and was closing the truck door "i'll drive you there but then i have really have to leave."

He started to explain as he drove "the house isn't too far away from the beach and the car is yours to keep as well." Poseidon stopped to let sally think " and schools? how far is the closest one? is it safe?" he glanced over at her before taking a paper from the overhead mirror and handing it to her "here a list of good schools under an hour away." she took a moment to look over the list of schools "are these all?" "all the ones ill let the children go to. take your time deciding you have a few years before they start."

She reached down and put the list in her purse "how much longer until we get to the house?" Poseidon chuckles softly eyes flickering to the rearview mirror and back "not much longer don't worry."

as they pull into the drive way of a beautiful large two story off white colored house with brown roof tiles speckled with white and three terracotta colored chimneys. the house is surrounded greenery with the ocean not far behind it "Poseidon! this is too much! i said a house not a mansion." As he brought the car to stop in front of the house he glanced over to her but quickly looked away. "i wanted to make sure you had enough room for everything need or wanted." he says while getting out of the car.

sally followed his lead and quickly left the car "but still its just- just too much." she said while unbuckling ely as Poseidon swiftly unfolded the stroller before walking over to sally and reaching out her to hand him the babe who turned to look at him. "you said you'd let me have this one thing-" "but i expect well this." shed gestured toward the mansion with one hand as she reluctantly allowed him to take the baby before turning and walking over to get Percy out of the car. "..i know i know but this is what i wanted to give you. from know on things wont be easy for you with two half-bloods let alone two of my children, i just want you three to be safe." sally placed Percy in the stroller and the baby reached out to hold on to his sisters who was laid down beside him by there father.

"i have to go now please be safe sally." with soft eyes he reached out and held her face with both hands placing his forehead on hers. "i will. we will." she said as she closed her eyes leaning into his hands till a soft light shone and the hands on her face disappeared leaving only the scent of the sea and a warmth of an embrace.

Sally pushed the front door open guiding the stroller in shutting and locking the door behind her, turning and looking down at the two baby's one sleeping(ely) the other trying there hardest to stay awake(percy) and whispers "don't worry baby, mommy will take care of you both."

sally looks up to take in the room around her. Infront of the entryway across the hall is a set of stairs, with a sigh sally decides to find a place to lay the children down. It takes her an absurdly long time to find a room that was set up as a nursery she had nearly looked around entire first floor first finding the living room directly to the left of the entry hall. the living room has a fire place in the corner two large tv's an l shaped table and couch that has shelves behind it and an incredibly large table. then at the far end of the living room to the right was a theater room with a snack bar to the right of the room two rows of theater style seats and a sunken area in the front filled with bean bags folded blankets and pillows and a tv nearly as large as the wall with shelves on either side.

leaving the room and walking back towards the entry hall set before the stairs is a library that also has a set of stairs that seems to lead up too another floor of the library. closing the door and continuing down the hallway and finding to the right are a kitchen and dining room before finding a nursey directly to the right of the entry and next to it is a bedroom.

"finally." walking into the room with an annoyed huff leaving the door open and walking past a bathroom and closet before reaching the crib at the other side of the room. placing the stroller on the right side of the crib, it was a beautiful thing round made out of white driftwood adorned with golden accessory's and has dark green padding with swirling gold patterns a gauzy greenish blue canopy, white pillows and soft baby blue blankets that all had different sea animals on them. Sally took a deep breath a soft smile taking over her previously annoyed face "he really did go all out." she reached out touch the fabric of the canopy before percy made a soft snort in his sleep making ely open her with a whine.

chuckling she reached down to pick ely "did your brother wake you up honey? hush now lets go back to sleep." sally began to pat her back turning to the crib and placing her down on one side and covering her up using the blanket with a dolphin on it. she quickly placed percy down in the crib as well using a seahorse blanket this time sally stood and just watched the two for awhile before walking to the left side of the room where a door to a connected bedroom was. she walked in to the room not care to look around just walking to the bed taking off her shoes and laying down quickly falling asleep.
