Thirty-Three

Poseidon POV

I flashed into Apollo's palace just in time to see him attaching an IV to my son's arm. I walk over to him and rest a hand on my son's forehead. I run my hand through his hair and sigh. I walk over to the side of the room and grab a chair, dragging it over to next to the bed and sit next to my son. I grab his hand.

Apollo walks over to me.

"I can't believe Kronos would do this to him."

"I know Uncle P, I know."

After that we were silent. Apollo tended to all of Percy's wounds.

Suddenly, Apollo looked worried.

"What happened?" I asked him.

He took his hand off Percy's forehead.

"I think Percy has a fever."

As if on cue, Percy started shivering and sweating. Apollo dabbed a wet wash cloth on Percy's forehead.

"Uncle P can you do this? I still need to wrap some wounds."

"Alright"

I took the wash cloth from Apollo. It wasn't so cool anymore, probably because of Apollo. I wet it a little more to lower the temperature and dabbed at Percy's forehead.

Apollo came next to me and grabbed left Percy's arm. There was a long gash on his arm. Apollo cleansed the wound and securely wrapped an ace bandage around Percy's arm.

He went to Percy's right arm. This one wasn't so lucky.

"Uncle P, Percy's arm is fractured, I'm going to put a cast on it, but with my healing powers, I can make it heal in a couple hours."

"Okay" I sighed.

I wet the towel once again and laid it on Percy's forehead.

Percy coughed. His breathing got a bit labored.

Suddenly, it stopped. Percy groaned and his eyes fluttered open.

"Dad"

"Percy" I sighed, relieved. "Are you okay?"

He shook his head. "It hurts" he whimpered.

It killed me to see him in this pain.

"Can you tell me what hurts?"

"Everything. My wrists, ankles, my arms, my legs, my chest, my head."

"Oh Percy" I sighed. "Don't worry, Apollo will fix you right up. You will be out and about in no time."

"Dad I'm scared."

"What about?"

"The prophecy, Kronos"

"I get Kronos, I will never let him come close to you again. But, why the prophecy?"

"'A half-blood of the eldest godsShall reach sixteen against all odds'That's me.'Shall see the world in endless sleep'All the mortals were asleep, I saw that.'The hero's soul cursed blade shall reap.'No hero's soul was reaped. Who is the hero dad? Who is going to die?""I don't know"
