Percy's POV
It was almost dawn when Grover, Thalia, Nico, Annabeth, and I finaaly reached the top of the hill that over looked Camp Half Blood. We had just gotten back from a quest and we were all exhausted. I stood there taking in the scenery, and thinking about how much I couldn't wait to get to my cabin and go to sleep, when I finally heard thalia yell in my ear.
"Earth to kelp head" said Thalia for the fifth time apparently.
"Huh" was my ever so intelligent response.
"We need to go report to Chiron" said an irritated Thalia.
"Can't it wait until morning?" I asked
"Fine since your so tired, how about i report to Chiron by myself while you guys get some rest?" asked Thalia
"What's the catch?" I asked, clearly suspicious.
"Oh no reason I'm just going to summarize the quest from my point of view" she said in an attepmt at an innocent voice.
"So basically your going to tell him some crazy story that ends with you saving everyone from meeting a horrible doom" I said as i stifled a yawn.
"Yup" she said as grinned devilishly
"Deal" I yelled after her as she dashed off to the big house as if anticipating my answer.
I turned around to find Annabeth asleep on Thalia's tree and Grover was nowhere to be seen. As i walked over towards, I couldn't help but notice that she looked angelic even in her sleep. Her golden curls seemed to shine even though we were all filthy from the quest. As i reached her, I gently shook her awake.
"Come on wise girl its time to go" I said softly.
"Carry me" she said tiredly, as she yawned softly.
"Ok" was my only response as I picked her up bridal style as started off towards the Athena cabin.
When I finally reached Annabeth's bed I was so tired that I actually thought about hopping under the sheets with her and falling asleep right then and there. However, i thought about what would've happened if i was found asleep in bed with Annabeth. Athena would send me to Tartarus for the rest of my life.
"Not a good idea at all" I mumbeled as I pulled the sheets over her.
I kissed her forehead softly and exited the cabin and made my way over to the Poseidon cabin, where a cold shower awaited me. With that thought I made a mad dash to my cabin with a smile on my face.
Third Person POV- Mount Olympus Throne Room
The throne room was eerily quite as the gods sat around chatting waiting for Zeus to arrive to the meeting. All talking was suddenly ceased as Zeus appeared in his throne in a flash of lightning.
" I suppose your all wondering why I have called this meeting" said Zeus.
" Yes father I was wondering why I was interrupted in the middle of creating my most brilliant haiku to date" said a slightly irritated Apollo.
" Yes well I apoligize but it is an urgent matter" said Zeus
" What is it brother?" asked Poseidon hearing the seriousness in his brother's voice.
Zeus turned towards Poseidon and there was one emotion clear in his eyes, sadness.
" It involves your son" said Zeus sadly.
" Who Triton, what has happened to him?" asked Poseidon in urgency.
" No Triton is fine,it's about Percy" said Zeus as Poseidon turned as white as a ghost.
" As you all know Percy has stopped Kronos for the time being" said Zeus as everyone nodded their heads in understanding.
" Well his rapid ascension in power has peaked my interest" stated Zeus.
" How so brother?" asked Hades
" Well at his current growth rate I believe he will have the power to destroy us all in a matter of yea-" said Zeus as he was abruptly cut off by Poseidon.
" Where exactlly are you going with this brother" spat Poseidon, the irritation clear in his voice.
" Well I was given a prophecy" said Zeus, as the room was filled with gasps.
" Father that is impossible, the ancient laws forbid it" stated Athena simply.
" Well not me specifically, I had Thalia get one for me" said Zeus.
" Well then, tell us brother what does this propehcy say about my son" said Poseidon in anger.
" It says:
The one who controls time has fallen
However he will not soon be forgotten
The one who has saved the day
Shall help him once again join the fray
He must be destroyed by his friends four
Or else Olympus shall be no more" said Zeus as the room grew eerily silent.
Poseidon was the one to break the silence.
" Brother I beg of you to, please spare him." pleaded Poseidon
" I cannnot brother, it must be done for the good of Olympus" stated Zeus.
" I agree it must be done in order to ensure the safety of Olympus" said Athena.
" Your only saying that because you can't accept the fact that he an Annabeth love one another" roared Poseidon.
" No she doesn't, that's why she's cheating on him with-"
" Enough!" roared Zeus.
" Why dont we vote on it?" asked Hades
" Alright all in favor of destroying Perseus Jackson" asked Zeus
Everyone except Poseidon raised a hand.
" Then it shall be done" said Zeus.
" Now then Athena, Hades, and I shall inform our children of the situation, oh and Poseidon you must swear upon the river styx not to inform Perseus of our plan" said Zeus
" Fine I swear" said Poseidon in defeat.
" Now then we shall be on our way" said Zeus as he, Athena, and Hades all dissapeared in a flash of golden light.
