Hi everyone? Thank you so much for taking your time to read my story. This is my first so any suggestions you have to give it to me in a review. Thanks again everybody. I own nothing!
Percy thinks again
(Percy's point of view)
The gods were staring at me; they were waiting for my decision. My head pounded with the rush of blood and I heard Zeus repeat.
'Well, are you going to accept this generous offer?'
I wasn't sure, I thought of what it would mean, Annabeth, Grover, Nico, Thalia and my parents. I didn't want to lose them but at the same time I could help them and maybe… I thought of Calypso. I felt sorry for her and then I heard Ares speak.
'I like this idea, it means I can kick him into pulp and he'll keep coming back for more.'
Athena agreed saying, 'I approve of this idea as well' but she was mainly looking at Annabeth. There she was, not even staring at me and so I made up my decision, I would deny this offer.
I said, 'No'
'What, you are refusing our generous gift?' Zeus's voice sounded like thunder.
'I'm honoured an all, but I wouldn't want to miss out on all the opportunities with my friends.' I quickly replied. Annabeth was beaming at me.
Time Skip (Percy says his requests about giving more respects to minor gods bla bla bla…)
I turned to move out onto the elevator and then BAM this golden light rushed into me, I literally felt myself turning gold with power. What was happening? All the gods, everyone in Olympus was staring at me with awe.
Zeus was the first to speak, 'this is impossible, it cannot be… but, how?'
Hestia broke the ice, 'the curse of Kronos has been lifted but his powers were trapped in the body of a demigod for too long, it has to go somewhere and where better than to the hero who defeated him. Percy Jackson, you are now the god of time and heroes.'
I stared, stunned at her words but I realized she was right, I felt so much power and I felt time whizzing around me, I felt like I could stop it. I then fully realized what had happened, Annabeth! She was nowhere to be found, I reached out with my mind and felt her flavour, I could never forget it and teleported.
I opened my eyes and I was at a garden presumably somewhere in Olympus. She was crying next to a tree and I walked over.
'I'm sorry' I said.
She turned and froze. 'Why did you come here?'
I hurriedly rushed out my words, 'please Annabeth, I'm still me and anyway you know I did not choose godhood on purpose, I'll still go to camp and we can still be together. Please!'
'We cannot' she said. 'You are a god and I'm not, we could never be together, you know that' And with this, she ran off.
I stood there, my heart utterly broken
One month later
I hadn't got used to being a god and I don't think I ever will. The council of the gods had decided to make 12 into 15. This way Hestia, Hades and I would be included. The god was rather reluctant for me to join their council. But since I was the lord of time, I was more powerful than most of them. And since I was the god of heroes I would be an ambassador between demi-gods and immortals to ensure another war would never break out again.
I worked but my heart was completely empty. I saw Annabeth now and then on Olympus working on the new plans. However I could never speak to her because she seemed to be avoiding me. I felt like nothing without her, all day I would think and think about her. I wondered if she even missed me, I decided I would speak to Aphrodite about it.
I teleported to her temporary temple and there she was waiting for me. Ares was there as well and as soon as he saw me he remarked, 'the punk has arrived, get used to getting beaten up, you may be the god of time and son of old sea beard but I'm still going to mash your face into pulp.'
I sighed, I had no doubts my powers could take him, i'm the lord of time for goodness sake! I ignored Ares and went to Aphrodite. She dismissed Ares with a wave and spoke to me,' follow your heart or it will never be healed. Think Percy, what are your intentions?' She disappeared after that.
I decided I would visit camp half-blood to sort out my differences and teleported straight there.
Well people, how do you think of my new story? Please leave reviews if you think I should carry on. Merry Christmas!
