Chapter Twenty Two: The Judgment

"Finally.. We're here are you ready?" Veronica said, I'm exhausted and sweating and suddenly I teased Trevor, and Veronica laughed.

"You know what after this let's have dinner? ... In New York!" I accidentally asked her out.

Chase and Veronica finally get inside of the temple.

Meanwhile in the mortal world Luna is taking care of Evelyn who is so worried about Veronica and Chase, as Trevor he is in the middle of the stairs which he hearing everyone and everything.

"Brother! This is madness! The mortal world is in chaos and destruction, we are gods and our responsibility and duty is to keep our creation safe and sound." Poseidon madly said on Zeus, and Zeus shouted "ENOUGH! THE LIGHTNING THIEF WILL BE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THEM! NO US!"

All gods are shouting and arguing about Zeus decision to bring chaos. "YOUR SON WILL PAY!" Zeus sternly said to Poseidon. "MY SON IS INNOCENT! HE'S NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS!" Poseidon shouted.

As we felt the huge earthquakes and thunders, Veronica and I run as fast as possible to stop the gods madness destruction. As we run and turn right we saw the giant gods arguing and I holding the lightning bolt of Zeus and they looked at me so intensely and full of judgement as I spoke and said everything and said that the lightning thief isn't me and it's Calixtro the grandson of Hermes, As gods looked at Hermes and Zeus said nicely to give his lightning bolt, but I made a deal with the king of the gods and he asked "What is it?" as I said that to stop the chaos and clear my name because I'm innocent, and as I wish for them their children even an hour or day.

Zeus chuckled and said "If that is your want. Granted." Veronica and Athena is sincerely hugged each others and talked for a minutes as Zeus dismissed the meeting and I said to Zeus if he can teleport my guardian in the temple and make an portal to get out in Olympus easily. Zeus agreed and only one snapped Trevor is teleported and Trevor is confused and when he saw the gigantic gods he kneeled down and Poseidon muttered his brother Zeus if he can talk to his son Chase even a minute. "Young blood, Son of Poseidon I think I owned you an apology by judging you as payment I will let you to talk and have a bond with your father an hour." Zeus said and reward for me for giving the lightning bolt. An hour with my father in a mortal world.

Veronica and I laughed and hugged each others because finally we see our parents.

"Remember your duty brother!" Zeus remind Poseidon.

"Son." My father muttered and hugged me tightly and all three of us go to the portal and Poseidon said "Let's go?" As Veronica shouted in her mom and Athena said "I have duty my baby, but remember I'll always be there in a dream, and I'll hear any wishes and prayers of yours.. I love you my baby girl." As Athena sized herself as human and hugged Veronica and muttered something and kissed her in forehead as she need to say goodbye to Veronica once again.

"Goodbye mom" She said crying, as Athena looking at her and Athena said to me that to look at her, but I said "Her? Maybe she will look at us." And Athena chuckles.

As we go to the portal with Poseidon and we're in Third Geneva street of New Jersey.

It's good that there's payphone somewhere and I called right away my mother and while I'm talking to mom, my father asked if I doing good, and Trevor replied that I'm kind and resourceful but not friendly at all while Veronica said that she just starting to getting to know me and Veronica swore an oath to look at me and make me safe, but Poseidon chuckled and said "You are very look like your mother and I believe with you two, by the way while I'm here don't worship me as god. Make me like a friend."

"Hey guys, mom and Luna will be here any soon so let's have reservations for a while and make tour for the god of sea." I said so happy, and my father patted me and smile and said "Don't worship me as god for a while ok son? Make me like a friend okay and let's make money!" As Poseidon my father snapped his fingers and have gold bars in his hands.

"Dad! People are not nice at all, once they see you having it they can trick, fool or rob you" I said so shocked, and Poseidon replied "Why? I can just punish them right? I'm a god."

"Yes I know that but you also know gold bars isn't the money in this generation." I expounded and he told "Yep, that's why we'll going to the pawnshop to make exchange these gold bars into cash."

"Dude, your dad is cool! Let's do this!" Trevor said, while dad put his arns in Trev's shoulder and laughed and chitchat in each other, and its unbelievable, the god of sea is acting like a mortal that can buy everything.

"Enjoy the time with him" Veronica muttered as we are the one who left behind.

after an minutes Mom and Luna came in an restaurant and when my mom sees dad she run quickly and hugged him as my dad hugged him back and said "I have only an hour so let's have a bond."

All of us eat and tell our stories as we tell tales, and then suddenly my father expounded why gods can't visit their children in camp half blood and that's because of him and Athena which nearly forgot the duty of gods and because the forbidden love of Athena and Veronica's father who is a Shadow and that's why Zeus the King of the gods forbidden to see all demigods and even to go in mortal world.

I smiled and told him that it's a sacrifice for the gods and also a sorrow for them because they cannot see their children grow and only in dreams which is the only way they can visit all their children.

"Son, remember that you changed it snd Zeus granted your wish that gods shall visit and see their children even an hour or a day. You make something different that make our sorrow faded away." Poseidon sorrowful said as he stood up and told that its only one minute left and only an hugged and an blessings he can give to all of us.

"Daratus el kumpatus, elfisin di Dementro en Frantrocsia" when he said it all humans in the restaurant are blessed by a god of sea wirh luck and happiness. So with us demi gods and unknown creature of nature, A Phoenix.

He left while he's walking and he smiled at us and been teleported into Olympus like an wind.

After that gathering we bid goodbye with my mom and she offered us to drive in the camp half blood gate and she will leave gladly and will living in the blessings of her consort Poseidon. which is all of us have an good luck and happiness.

"So, we're here." Evelyn said like sad, bit Luna and Veronica told to my mom when Luna is settled and have a free time maybe they'll visit her just for a girl day.

"Thanks for that girls and I'll look forward with that." My mom said with tears in her.

"Mom, I'll visit sometimes with them don't worry." I said and we get out in the car and get our things that mom brought to us.

"Trev?" Evelyn called Trevor and He turned back and walk into Evelyn my mom, and she whispered something and hugged Trev.

"What's that?" I asked, but he just smiled and said "Secret!"

As we go to the the portal and Mr Dywn greet us all and my name became popular and even for Veronica and Trevor.

"Don't be so big headed, because in here I'm still your professor and guidance but for now let's celebrate your day." Mr Dywn said.

Well as for Luna the council has decided to make her an special cabin which is only her and she is introduced in whole camp half blood day after tomorrow, then many of the men are attractive to her as she almost beat the beauty of daughters of Aphrodite.

"You know what? Let's have sparring?" Veronica whispered and just hold my hand and take me to the battlefield she threw an spear and she drew a sword of her and attack me surprisingly. "Hey, hey, hey time out we have no armor!" I said nervous while defending myself, but she said so loud and sarcasm "Are you afraid? Afraid that you will lose by the girl like me. Armor is for weak! Are you weak!?"

"What!? I'm not!" I said that I'm shivering a little.
