The Start of an Even more Confusing Week
I just was not having any luck the past couple of weeks. With the war going on, his friend looking to him for support, and worst of all the girl trouble, ugh. Fighting a war were you go in knowing wining was already pretty much impossible, but fighting while your adolescent love life was almost a little powder keg was a real pain in the butt. Is it too much to ask for a little break were you do not have worry about the world as you know it or which one of the girls who have come to be good friends and comrades was the one you have feeling for. You think becoming invincible after take a little dip in a river of pure acid would help but it just seemed to make life more complicated.
But, anyways we win the war, save the world, the supposed masters of the dumbfounded (Which is quite an accomplishment by the way), and earn to respect of your pears. Just when you think you think you have won some well-earned R&R things get a lot worse, at least in my case. One minute a proposing to gods the changes that the need to make in order for peace to continue and the next the take your proposal back against you.
You know I should have seen it coming. The gods following my proposal make sure no one is neglected charge me with make sure the promise is kept. Which means so there is not another war I am forced to become a god making a terrible week complete.
After handing me this terrible and complicated Ultimatum the gods gave me a few minutes to ponder how royally screwed up the situation was. This gave me time to beat me head against the wall, say goodbye to me friends, and then accept what was going to happen to me. Then I came forward again and the gods preformed the ritual to turn me into a god which I cannot go far into since the gods don't want it to be public knowledge. But, what I can tell you it involved the fate, some godly sponsors to give some their energy to as a catalyst, and some seriously powerful magic.
Then what felt like hours later I woke up as one of the gods, or at least partially. I found myself standing about twenty feet in the air wearing a combination of ancient Greek armor and modern clothing. The armor was a mix of silver, celestial bronze, and two different types blue crystal hammered craft into intricate waster patterns across the breast place. The cloths underneath a blue hoody and blue camouflage work pants. In other words a looked like a true bad ass which was very strange.
Now that was completely weird and strange but I was not unexpected with the upgrade. But, what was truly weird and what caused me to know something was wrong was the fact that all everything around me was frozen in place. The gods all sitting in there chair around me were frozen as well stuck in various possess. Hades was glaring daggers almost literally at Zeus, Ares was polishing his sword, Aphrodite was admiring herself in compact mirror, and Hermes was stuck in the middle of firing spitballs at the back of Apollos head. That when I realized that somehow time had frozen around me and that it was coming from the silver charm hanging around my neck.
It seems that after Luke succeeded in destroying Kronos his essence not his consciousness which had been destroyed had latched onto to me giving me the titan's powers. So it would seem that I was now part god, part demigod, and part titan all add to the affinities small affinities from each of the gods which was apparently part of the agreement and the curse of the river Styx. This made were I could not even tell what was anymore.
A few minutes later as I was thinking over all the new changes my power flickered and time resumed around me. It was then that Aphrodite and my father came over to me together as I stood in the center of the room.
"You have made me quite proud Percy", my dad said as he put his hands on my shoulders his eyes sparkling with pride. "My brother won't say anything but he is quite impressed with everything that you have accomplished in this life time, in fact all of the gods have come to grudgingly respect you."
"He is quite right", said Aphrodite as she came over looking as amazing as she had the first time I had met her. "As it is your father and I have come to an agreement that you deserve a great reward for you action then this. We have both spoken to the other Olympians and we all agreed that as you are now one of us you should not have to go be by yourself."
It was then that I noticed that all the other Olympians had gathered around us in a light circle with conspirator smiles showing on all there faces. Then Aphrodite took a step to the side an amazing smile on her own face revealing a beautiful young woman standing behind her. The girl stared back at me in a look of wonder and joy appearing on her face.
"Percy", was as she was able to say as tears began to well from her eyes and she covered her mouth with her hands. She took a shaking step forward a little disbelief now showing in her face as she pressed her hand against the side of my face. "I thought that I would never get to see you again".
"It really me, Calypso", I said placing my hand over hers. She let out small squeak of a sob then she pushed her face into my chest and let me wrap my arms around her. "I don't understand I thought that she could not leave the island", I asked turned to look at my father and Aphrodite.
"We decided since you have done so much and she had put up with never find someone to be with that you both deserved a brake. I have grown tired of watching you come up with nothing with no answers in the love department. So I spoke to your father and together we pulled some strings so that you would not spend all of eternity alone."
I was out words as it all sank in and Calypso cried softly into my chest. Things were still unbelievable complicated but it would seem that there is a bright spot to all of this mess. As I gentle squeezed Calypso a little bit closer a felt myself relax a little more than I had in several months.
"Now, that you have undergone the ritual and have received our gift to you we must now assign you your duties", said Zeus as he stepped towards me followed closely by Athena. "As it Dionysus has earned having help to fight Typhoon has earned freedom from his task of watching over camp half-blood leaving a vacancy to be filled."
He motioned with his hand and Athena step forward to stand in front of me. "We have decided that your responsibility as an Olympian should reflect upon the agreement you have made with us. So with a unanimous design from us all we name you the patron god of heroes and give you charge of camp half-blood."
