It was about to boil over into a full out fight, but it was interrupted by a bright flash of light revealing and angry Thalia and an even angrier Artemis, as the two saw the father daughter duo. 

(AN: Other universe Artemis will be Arty and the other universe Thalia will be Thals (The universe Perseus and Zoe are from))

"WHERE HAVE YOU TWO BEEN" Thals asked yelling at the two

"Now before you to kill us, for whatever logical reasons you made, we are in a different universe reading our story" Perseus said gesturing to himself and Zoe, "and now you two are here as well"

"Don't reveal who my mommy is either, four of the gods haven't figured it out yet and daddy wants to see their reactions" Zoe asked giving the two her baby seal eyes causing them both to cave in to her will immediately, knowing she also wants to see their reaction.

"Fine" Arty and Thals said

It has been a few days since arriving in New York and since Apollo took them both to their high rise apartment.

"How much did that cost me" Apollo asked and Perseus shrugged as Apollo never told him.

 Also since Percy found out that Apollo did indeed give Zoe his blessing, making her the best archer since his own son Oliver Queen, who took after his mom in the looks department. Percy also got a hold of the Brotherhood branch that is based in New York. So he now has a job working with the New York Brotherhood.

"How large is this brotherhood" Athena asked which caused Arty to chuckle at how little her sister changed

"It's worldwide, but some places aren't as big of a strong hold, and other areas have the assassins in hiding" Perseus told them

"Alright Zoe," Percy said as he drove up to her new school, "remember the rules?"

"No" Zoe said, only to receive glares from all the parents in the room, "fine I know the rules I just wanted to see your reactions" Zoe said sheepishly from all the glares 

"Yes dad," Zoe replied, "no using Riptide unless I am certain that it's a monster and no using my powers during school."

"You forgot no murdering anyone" Arty said to Zoe

"I think that's a given one though, not a special addition like this one was" Zoe answered

"Good now have a good day," Percy said before seeing a certain blonde,

"It's Annabeth/Me" Annabeth and Thalia asked at the sametime

"yeah" Perseus responded grabbing hold of Arty's hand, which said goddess just notice her niece, which hurt her love so much is in the same room as her.

 "I'll be right back Zoe go on to your school."

Zoe nodded and left, but not before seeing her father's face.

"I associate that face with run before you become a witness to murder" Zoe said, which only got a small glare from her father, while the others in the room, minus Zeus and Hera, laughed

"Hello Annie," Percy spat making her turn around, "long time no see huh?"

"P-Percy?" Annabeth stuttered eyes wide, "What are you doing here?"

"going to school what else" Perseus responded rhetorically knowing it's in the past for him anyways.

"Dropping off my daughter," Percy replied casually, "What are you doing here?"

"Dropping off my son Luke," Annabeth said, "or..."

"Can you explain Perseus" Athena said with a hint of a threat in her voice

"No she actually explains it later on" Perseus defelected

"Don't say," Percy groaned, putting his hand to his head, "don't you dare say it."

"Our son," Annabeth said.

"Call your boss and tell them that you'll be late getting to work cause a friend of yours needs your help," Percy said before handing her a card with an address on it, "Then come by my place so we can talk"

"you aren't going to kill me are you" Annabeth asked not sure what was in store for the other universe's her

"He doesn't kill you, scare you maybe, but not kill" Thals replied

Percy then got into his car and drove off towards his apartment, with Annabeth following him.

When they both arrived, Percy looked at the doorman and said, "If you see a girl about 15 with electric blue eyes, tell me immediately. Got it?"

"Hey that's me" both Thalia's said, "and why are you expecting me Perseus" Thalia added on, only for her other self to fail at holding back a laugh.

"Yes Master Jackson" the man said, making Percy sigh.

"He still does that occasionally and I hate it" Perseus said

"it's either Mr. Jackson or Percy," he told him, "you coming Annie?"

"Don't Call me Annie Perseus" Annabeth retorted

"Alright then beth" Perseus replied

"but I like calling you Annie" Percy said, which earned him a slap from his girlfriend

"You have no idea what I'm capable of do you?" Percy asked, confusing her.

"No one does" Thals said, "even my guesses are off as you always surpass my expectations"

"I know exactly what you are capable of Perseus Jackson," Annabeth replied

"No you don't" Annabeth said, which got a laugh from most of the demigods and a glare from her mother.

"Why did you not tell me that you were pregnant with my son?" Percy asked Annabeth, " Why did you leave me for a job in Greece? Why did you Annie?"

"One, I didn't know I was pregnant with Luke until a month later," Annabeth said, "two, you were holding me back. Also don't call me Annie. Who is the girl's mother?"

"That's bullshit and even I know it" Annabeth said, seemingly more disappointed in herself

"That's correct niece of whatever this universe is" Arty said, "but what held you back was your hubris, not Perseus, and now being a single mother by choice has held yourself back far more than any other thing has"

"No idea," Percy said, 

"You better know now kelp head" Thals said, with a hint of joyousness to her statement

"Nope I completely forgot who the mother of my daughter is after I learned it" Perseus sassed back which caused the two cousins to start fighting.

"Is this normal of them" Athena asked

"Yes" Arty, Percy and Thalia responded as the latter two went to help their-selves in the fight, and Arty picked up the book to continue the reading.

"I don't have any memory of that night at all. I also had about 7 spirits in a row that night."

"I would want to remember that night" Apollo whined, even though it wasn't his memory.

Annabeth's eyes widened in surprise.

"You had that much Alcohol?" Annabeth asked as Percy nodded, "Why?" 

"Because the girl that I was in love with broke my heart and even now it's still healing," Percy told her, "So I drowned my sorrows in liquor."

"I-I'm sorry Percy," Annabeth said.

"That was a lie" Perseus said while still engaged in his fight with Thals

"It's a bit late for that Annie," Percy told her.

"Sir," A voice said, "A girl with lightning blue eyes is waiting looking for you"

"Hey that's me" both Thalia's said once again

"Thank you Thomas," Percy replied, "send her up"

"Right away sir," Thomas replied

The elevator then dinged and Percy, thinking that it was a trick, brought out ta gun and when the elevator opened said, "Tell me something that only Thalia Grace would know, before I pump you full of lead"

"Your daughter's mother for one," Thalia said as Percy put the gun back.

"Tell me who the mother of my daughter is and you may come in" Percy said

"Can't the mother of your daughter made me swear on Chaos not to tell you," Thalia said, " I swear on the River Styx what I said was true"

Thunder rumbled throughout the sky and Percy said, "Alright you can come in."

"Thank you," Thalia replied, "for a second there I thought you were going to shoot me. I'm lucky you wouldn't"

"In all honesty here, I did think about it" Perseus said before Arty continued reading seeing that the fight between cousins was over.

"Anyways," Percy said, changing the subject, "I assume you know about Luke Chase?"

"So that's what I name our son" Annabeth asked

"Yes" Perseus replied

Thalia nodded before freezing

"you were going to shoot weren't you" she asked her cousin

"If you weren't Thalia yes," Percy replied casually as if he never said that

"Yeah I'm glad I am Thalia, now" Thals said, with a chuckle

"Where were you for 8 years?" Thalia screamed at him

"committing mass murder in Europe, mostly London and the UK though" Perseus said off handedly, surprising most with just how casually he said it

"London," Percy replied, "I wanted to get away from this part of my life because I deserved it more than anyone. Also tell Zeus that if he even tries to kill my daughter that I'll make him fade and no one is going to stop me from doing so"

"You can't do that" Zeus said offended that a mere mortal thinks that they could fade him

"Do you want to test it Zeusy" Perseus said, looking the god straight in the eyes as if he was staring directly at the gods soul.

Thunder rumbled and Percy flipped him the bird.

"Shut up King Wuss" Percy muttered

"I am not a wuss" Zeus said indignantly of himself

"Fine shut it drama queen" both Percy's said, "is that better" to which Zeus shook his head no

"Then king Wuss it is then" Perseus proclaimed much to Zeus's displeasure.

"You weren't in New York?" Annabeth asked, "why?"

"One, Apollo told me to leave NY asap and two, you were part of my so I decided to leave it all behind," Percy replied coldly, "now then I would like to talk to Thalia. So Annie if you would just leave that would be nice. Goodbye."

Annabeth walked out of the apartment and when she got into the elevator, she started to cry. Thinking why she did what she did all of those years ago.

"because of your damned hubris that's why" Perseus and Thals said, as Zoe was secretly asking her grandma for more of her cookies.

"Damn Perce," Thalia said looking at her cousin, "When have you become so cold to people?"

"Since I became an assassin" Percy told her, "why are you here?"

"because the Olympians sent me to bring you to Olympus," Thalia replied, "They want to know where you've been for the past 8 years and they also want to meet your daughter"

"By meet did you mean vote if she gets to live or not, because that's usually what happens when I'm on Olympus" Perseus said

"ditto to that" Percy replied, and all of the gods, besides Arty, Hestia, and a sleeping Dionysius grew pale, at the sudden change in Sally's expression.

"What do my sons mean it's the usual for you all to be voting if they get to live or die" She questioned them

"It's Zeus's and Ares's fault" Poseidon mumbled but it was loud and clear enough to hear.

Said gods flashed away after catching the look in Sally's eyes, knowing bring her death or even injury would cause the demigods to start an uprise against the two.

"No can do Thals," Percy said, "me and Zoe are perfectly fine how our lives are. I don't need Zeus messing it up when she turns 18. "

'Which reminds me, I need to threaten away from her' Arty thought, guessing at what her Percy meant by the whole turn 18 thing.

"Go and tell them that they'll have have to fight me to make me come up there. That or the only one who can make me come is Zoe's mother. So you have two choices. 1, Zoe's mother comes here or 2, you and I fight and you lose.What's it going to bee Thals? 1 or 2?  You have two days. Come back here once you've made your choice."

"I choose number 1 still" Thals said, "even though she didn't listen"

Thalia then left and Percy turned to a shadow saying, "You can come out now Neeks."

"Damnit," Nico said walking out of a shadow, "how did you know?"

"Something called Eagle Vision," Percy replied, "are you here to take me to Olympus"

"Yeah Perce," Nico said, sarcasm leaking from his mouth, "sure I am. I want to bring my cousin/brother to the people who will interrogate him for what he's been up to for the last 8 years" 

"Nico, being sarcastic something isn't right here" most of the demigods said, including Will who was sitting next to his boyfriend, still checking up on him from his use of his powers to keep others away.

Percy grinned and said, "Geez man since when have you become sarcastic?"

"That's what we want to know" The demigods all said

"Well if you be quiet and allow me to continue reading children, you will find out the answer to your question" Arty said shocking the gods and demigods at seeing how nice the usually cold heart Artemis was being.

"well someone has to be that way since you weren't here," Nico replied with a grin, "how is my little niece?"

"She's doing good," Percy replied, "how is Reyna and the little ones?"

"Why are you asking about me and little one's Perseus" Reyna asked annoyed that she is being brought up in the story now.

"Missing Zoe," Nico replied, "you know maybe I should bring the family by for dinner sometime. How long will you stay here?"

"What does Nico mean by family Perseus, answer me" Reyna said, in her usual commanding tone when ever someone was disobeying orders, which Perseus continued to ignore

"We moved to stay" Percy said, "I decided that it was time to stop running from my past, and I also wanted to find out who Zoe's mother is"

"If you want to stop running from your past, then facing the Olympians is the best way to do it," Nico said, "oh and before I forget did you know that Annabeth has a son?"

"I saw them both when I dropped Zoe off at school this morning," Percy said, "that is what I was so angry about. She could've called me and I'd be right there, but no. She decides to keep my son away from his father."

Percy shook his head.

"I can't forgive that," Percy said, "a child should know their father and mother. The only reason why I'm willing to forgive Zoe's mother is because she's a goddess of some sort and because of the Ancient Laws"

" I agree nephew, and it's a shame that the ancient laws prevent us from getting to know our children" Hestia said looking sadly at the fact, with most of the other gods who had children and loved them but couldn't show it because of the ancient laws

Nico nodded.

They both then spent a few hours talking about their lives. By the time they finished talking it was time to pick up Zoe from school.

"and that's the end of this chapter" Arty said, "So who's next"

The stolls raised their hands, but Arty shook her head no, before handing it off to Artemis, who looked like she didn't want to read, but wasn't being given a choice about the matter.
