The Rising of the Skies

I was really surprised that I had passed out 2 times in 4 days because before that I had never passed out I woke up in the big house in the morning as I could see the light coming in from the windows, I saw Annabeth standing beside my bed with Percy, They didn’t realize that I was awake and I kept my eyes closed so that I could listen to their conversation.
‘But who would have done that and why?’ said Percy.
‘I don’t know but it was somebody inside camp’ replied Annabeth.
‘Nobody new except him has come into camp this summer’ said Percy ‘and I am pretty sure that no old member would do this’
‘So you mean to say that your own brother did this’ she replied.
‘HE’S not my Brother’ he said ‘he’s a half brother and I’m not happy to have him as a brother and you know what maybe he did’
‘Well, that makes two of us’ I said surprising them ‘I thought having a brother would be great, but it’s not so great when your brother ignores you and acts like a jerk because of a game and I didn’t even know this world was real and even you were suspected of stealing the lightning bolt when you didn’t even know about it.’
He turned around and started walking away without a reply.
‘Don’t worry he’s just jealous’ said Annabeth
‘Why is he jealous, he’s way better than me in everything I even don’t have the powers that he has’ I replied.
‘I don’t know, I think he is just angry at Poseidon’ She replied


That afternoon I was at the beach again, walking when I saw a guy walking towards me he looked in his 30’s and was smiling as he came towards me he wore a Hawaiian shirt and shorts he looked like a fisherman. I took out my sword as he came because there were no people like that at Camp Half blood.
‘Who are you?’ I asked.
‘You don’t recognize your own father Steven’ he replied
‘Poseidon’ I said as I bowed.
‘Walk with me’ he replied.
‘Okay’ I said as I started walking.
‘I’m here to tell you something’ he said
‘What’
‘First, let me assure you that I’m sorry about the powers but I will see how you become and I just might give them to you’ he said ‘And the thing I came for is more important, you must think after Kronos and Gaia we have had enough, but there is a more difficult mission ahead of us and especially for you’
‘Why, me’ I asked
‘Because you are my son and I want to test you’ he replied.
‘Somebody I can’t say the name of is recovering and I would like you to help us’ he replied
‘So what should I do?’ I asked
‘I have asked Chiron and Dionysus to assign you a quest, you shall go to San Francisco and delay his return’ he said
‘Whose return’ I asked
‘I can’t say but you will find his remains on Mount Othyrs’ he said ‘If he awakes it will be worse than Gaia and Kronos’
‘But I don’t have any experience’ I said.
‘I advise you to take Percy and Annabeth with you’ he said ‘I will see you later’
And with that I closed my eyes as he disappeared otherwise I would have disintegrated.
At the campfire Chiron told everyone that the gods had asked for a quest and I was to lead it,
‘You should go to Rachel and consult her’ he said
I went to the big house because I wanted to hear Rachel’s prophecy privately
I sat in front of her, she looked at me and her eyes opened as her mouth opened and green smoke came out of it and she said in a different voice
'Three shall go to the home of the God'
'They shall defeat the son of the mother of monsters'
'One shall make a choice to change the future'
'And the youngest shall die for the eldest'
