3rd person POV (sorry,if you hate 3rd person)
In a stormy night,cries were briefly heard throughout.A little child rested in a mans arms.The man whispering sweet things to the child.He smiled softly at the young child and walked to the window.The light illuminating his handsome features,his black hair and beautiful sea green eyes.Blue and green,like the Mediterranean Sea.The child has the same features as the father,Lord Poseidon.God of the Seas and the Earth shaker.The baby stirred but fell asleep again.A small tuft of soft brown hair [MINI A/N:BROWN HAIR FROM SALLY] rested on the child's head,suddenly the child opened it's eyes.Same beautiful color as the father.The man,Poseidon,recalled her birth and the death of his lover as he stared into those young and innocent eyes.
*Flashback*
On August 18,1993.A child breathed it's first breath in the world,the mother on the other hand breathed her last breath.As Sally Jackson lay on her deathbed she whispered,"Andromeda Amphitrite Jackson." Poseidon didn't cry,he just stared as they nurses ushered him out and held his child.Poseidon held the fragile child in his arms,whispering and sadly smiling."You are my child,my first daughter,make me proud."
*Flashback end*
"You will come with me,okay?You will stay at my home,with Amphitrite and your brother."He said softly staring at the eyes of his daughter."You will be safe with me..."
Poseidon,not wanting to kill his child,walked to the Empire State Building.Home of the Gods and Goddesses and many more.The 600th floor...the duo finally arrived at the throne room and Poseidon quietly opened the doors.As he entered,everyone's eyes were on the bundle wrapped securely in his arms.Same as the others,he thought,as they won't stop staring...look away.
Zeus snapped out of his confusion and asked,"What is in your arms,brother?"
"My child Zeus,my first daughter,is in my hands."Poseidon explained calmly.
"YOU BROKE THE OATH?!?HOW DARE YOU BREAK IT!YOUR CHILD MUST BE KILLED!"Zeus shouted as the rest gasped."THIS CHILD MIGHT END US!"
"My daughter will be raised by me...her father.She will not turn to the dark side.I am the only parent that she has.Her mother died during childbirth.I will not let my daughter be taken by some mortals who never understand!"Poseidon shouted back.
"This poor child...Father let her be and let this child live with her Kelpy.It's for her own good.She can train with Triton and Seaweed Butt."Athena said to her father.Everyone looked at her in surprise.She just scoffed and looked away.
"Fine...you may take her with you.Don't do anything stupid brother,don't make me regret this."Zeus said firmly.
"I won't,brother."Poseidon said."Would you like to see her?"
"YES!!!SHE HAS MY BLESSING ALREADY!!!"Aphrodite screamed excitedly.
"You haven't even seen her,dumbo"Artemis said glaring at the love goddess."Don't corrupt her with the lovey-dovey thing!"
"I just want to see her! Golly,you are evil."Aphrodite said with a huff."Let me see her,NOW." Poseidon gently place Andromeda into her arms."Aww,she will grow up to be a dashing young lady!Lot's and lot's of love interests too!She has my blessing."
Poseidon grabbed his child from her arms and said,"I'm going...I have to convince my wife now.Goodbye."
"Good luck,dude.You need it."Apollo and Hermes said."Try not to get slapped in the face while you're at it."Artemis added smirking.
"Whatever."He closed his child's eye and flashed to his palace."Relax...she won't get mad.Just one look,sh will soften up...hopefully."

Poseidon stood there staring at his fuming wife.That didn't go as expected.Tables were upturned and the bed sheets were ripped...so many destroyed objects at his wife's expense."YOU MANWHORE...COULDN'T KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS WILL YOU?HUH?WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME?DO I NOT PLEASURE YOU ENOUGH?!?"She screamed making Andromeda start to cry."Shut the child up and sleep in the guestroom."She sighed and waved her hand,shooing them away.
"My wife...it's not your fault.It's mine,I get it.But don't take your anger out at my daughter.Her mother is dead and I am the safest option.Please,give my child a chance."Poseidon pleaded to his wife.
"What is her name...the little girl and her mother."She said glaring at him.
"Sally Jackson...and Andromeda.Andromeda Amphitrite Jackson."He said quietly as he recalled his dead lover.
"Why my name?To call me out and say that you cheated on me?To rub it in my face?"Amphitrite said sadly.
"She knew of this world,my love.She can see through the mist.She wanted to honor you.She knew of you and what could happen."He whispered,careful to not wake Andromeda.
"Call her Andy...it's easier.Find a nice crib and place it here...I'll deal with her."She said fixing the broken things on the floor.
"What about me?"Poseidon questioned.
"Oh!In the guest bedroom,of course...your punishment.I'll take care of her,I swear on the river Styx."Thunder softly boomed at the oath.She smiled and took the child into her arms.Beautiful eyes stared back and the child smiled a toothless grin.She smiled back and carried her to a crib Poseidon summoned moments before."Sleep my child...mommy's here."
Poseidon watched with a small smile and walked to his wife and whispered,"I love you,both." in her ear,kissed her and the child on the cheek and left the room.Leaving a smiling wife and a sleeping baby.
The door opened and Amphitrite saw a sheepish looking Poseidon,"What?"She asked.
"Where is the guestroom,again?"He said with a shy smile.
"Seriously...it's down the hall,make a right,go straight until end of the hall and then make a left and it's the room next to the plant."She said with a deadpanned look.
"Umm,what?"He questioned with a confused look.
"The room across Triton's...you don't even know!"She whispered sharply making Poseidon flinch and run outside.Yelling an apology as he went.
