Percy Jackson x Reader-The Titan's Curse

Chapter 6

Percy's POV
Artemis lifted her hand towards the fire that was inside the tent. The fire in the tent started to create smoke. Then the smoke started to show some sort of slideshow.

I saw a woman with (H/C) and (E/C) eyes singing to a pair of kids, a boy and a girl who looked no older than 7. The children were singing along with their mother.

I immediately recognized the children. They were no other than (Y/N) and Will. And that woman with them must be their mother.

For a moment, they looked like a happy family that any demigod could ever have. But that all changed when the door swung open.

A drunk middle aged man stumbled into the room with a bottle of beer in his hand. His cold eyes locked onto the mother and the children.

Their mother quickly stood up, defending her children. The kids cowered at the sight of the drunken man.

"Why didn't you cook dinner Naomi!" The drunk man shouted.

"I'm sorry, Marcus. I'll cook you some dinner right now."

'Marcus' took another drink of beer until he finished it. He threw the empty beer bottle towards little (Y/N). She yelped and quickly ducked. The glass bottle shattered above her.

"If it wasn't for your brats, we wouldn't be having this problem." Marcus sneered.

"Marcus please. Don't bring them into this." Naomi pleaded.

"I can do whatever I want!" Marcus shouted.

He then walked towards (Y/N) and roughly grabbed her arm.

"Let go of me!" (Y/N) shouted.

"Shut up brat!" Marcus growled as he made (Y/N) get out of her bed.

"Let go of my sister!" Will yelled as he got out of his bed and kicked Marcus from behind.

This gave (Y/N) an opportunity to kick him where the sun doesn't shine. Marcus doubled over. (Y/N) and Will quickly ran towards their mom. She made them get behind her. Marcus slowly got up and was now glaring daggers at them.

"I told you Naomi. They're nothing but trouble." Marcus said as he slowly made his way towards the mother and children.

Then he roughly grabbed Naomi's arm and dragged her out of the room. (Y/N) and Will tried to run after them but Marcus slammed the door closed and locked it.

They kept banging on the door but nothing happened. (Y/N) slid down to the floor. Her eyes were now bloodshot. Will hugged her but he also shed a few tears.

"W-Why Will? Why do we have this life?" (Y/N) cried.

Will looked down at his sister and wiped her tears away.

"I don't know (Y/N). I don't know why we have this life. I don't know why Marcus hates us. I don't know why our real dad isn't here with us. But I do know we can't leave our mom. She needs us." Will said.

(Y/N) bit her lip before slowly nodding.

"You're right Will...I just want a family...a happy family."
