Hate, pain, betrayal. This is the emotions that Percy had felt 20 years ago but he had forgotten when he had married the primordial goddess, Aphrodite. That was the part of the promise given to him by Chaos to become a primordial and that had turned out to be the best decision that he had made on his own. Yes, his entire life was a complete lie, everything he had done was planned out before he was even born. The wars he had fought in, the relationships he had forged, all fake. He remembered the words of the blasted 'king of Olympus' as he banished him
"Your life is no longer needed, hero. I, Zeus Lord of the skies, hereby banish you from Olympus."
That had created a twist in fate itself, with Percy's life no longer needed by the Olympians then the true hero would be lost completely. That's what the three fates told him when he asked them why they handed his life-string to him. That was also the day when Aphrodite had saved him from Zeus's bolt when he refused to leave. The love goddess took them to Alaska, where she told him her true nature. Aphrodite was a primordial goddess, one that had been used for the gods own pleasure. She, like him, had been forced into the role of the 'lustful and Jealous' Love Goddess and her entire life was a lie for the mortals to believe. That changed the day that Percy was given a choice by the first deity, Chaos, become a primordial by marrying Aphrodite or die in the frozen wilderness of Alaska, alone.
" That's not really a choice you know, sir." Percy told Chaos, looking the deity in the face.
Aphrodite was next to him, but she had a look of fear on her face. Chaos sighed, nodding "Yes, but the choice is yours, Perseus. The Fates have told me that if you chose the path of being a Primordial, then they will hand over your fate. Aphrodite, however, if you chose to not accept this, will lose her true soul mate."
Percy stiffened as he heard that last bit before staring at the love goddess "I, the lowest of the low, am your soul mate!?"
Aphrodite nodded "Yes, I could tell from the moment you were born that we should have been together, but you were taken away before I could do anything. I'm so sorry~"
Percy pulled the goddess into a hug, looking at the creator of the universe as he said "Make me a primordial, I have some work that needs finishing."
Percy Jackson, primordial of Kaiju, weaponry, monsters and the elements, stood on his balcony that overlooked the wilderness of Alaska, his home and territory. Aphrodite was next to him, a small smile on her face as she was pulled closer to him by his arm. The cold wasn't a problem, being the ruler of Alaska, Percy could control the weather at his whim.
"The demigods will be coming today, dear. Should we give them a warm welcome or a cold one?"
Percy smiled as he saw the six demigods trudge towards his castle, one that would make Count Dracula jealous.
"A cold welcome would freeze them to death, so how about a mild welcome?"
The two primordials laughed before headed inside to prepare for the arrival of the demigods.
Piper could only gasp at the massive castle that lay before them. It was beautiful, the walls were made of obsidian but looked so natural, like the obsidian had grown out of the ground right there. The daughter of the love goddess could only marvel at how this castle came to be before Leo called out "Hey! Anyone home in there!?"
Calypso looked wearily at the massive towers and ominous gate, this place was giving off a feeling of hate and sadness.
"Maybe I could fly over the ramparts and open the gate?" Jason said but that was shot down when the gates opened and revealed two lines of demons in armor.
The leader of the demons looked exactly like the creature from the card game, YU-GI-OH duel monsters, Piper then remembered the demons name, Summoned Skull.
"State your names and reason for being here, demigods." Summoned Skull said in a deep commanding tone, making Annabeth stand straight.
"I'm Annabeth Chase and my companions are Leo, Piper, Jason, Calypso, and Thalia. We came here to find Percy Jackson, if you know where he is then tell us."
The demon gave Annabeth a look of complete disgust before motioning them to follow him.
"Your 'Percy Jackson' is no more a demigod then he is human, daughter of Athena. My only advice to you is that you show him proper respect or you will find out what it is to be punished." Summoned Skull said as he lead them through a set of oak doors and into a throne room.
"My Lord, the demigods have arrived." The demon called as he knelt before the throne, the man in the throne spoke in a warm but firm voice
"Thank you, Selt-ron, your services are most welcomed, please leave us until I call you."
The now named demon, Selt-ron, bowed before rising and leaving the throne room.
"My, my, my. Time does fly doesn't it, Aphrodite?"
The man spoke and a woman that could only be her mother smiled as she said "Yes, Percy, it sure does. Hello, Piper, I hoped that you are doing well?"
Piper could only gaped as the man's face was revealed to be Percy Jackson.
Percy Jackson looked at the group of demigods, the ones that mattered more to the Olympians more than anything, anyway. Piper McClain, his 'daughter' was staring at her mother and him in shock. Annabeth Chase had a look of pure loathing as she glared at Aphrodite, Leo Valdez bowed and Calypso curtsied respectfully. Jason Grace had a look of confusion and Thalia Grace, oh the look of joy on her visage was clear for all to see. Thalia ran up to him, tears streaming down her face as she hugged her cousin.
"Percy, I'm so glad that your safe." She whispered before holding him at arms length as she smiled softly.
Aphrodite could only smile as her husband pulled Thalia into another hug, her daughter walked up to her and croaked out "Mom, what happened?"
Aphrodite only pulled her favorite daughter into her arms and she murmured "Shh, I'll tell you later, Piper."
Percy then summoned a small throne for Thalia to sit in before turning his glaze onto the other demigods.
"You may have found me but your quest ends here. I have only allowed a few of you to live through my land because of those I know I had real relationships and friendships from the lie your gods created."
Leo and Calypso moved to the end of the hall where Selt-ron appeared to take them to their new home, the only two demigods left were Annabeth and Jason.
"But, Perce, why did you think we came here just to take you away again?" Jason asked as he looked at the Primordial and was met with a cold emotionless stare.
"You have come here to not only waste my time but to take me back to those fools that call themselves gods! I am fate-less and because of that, your gods want to use me for their own pleasure and then throw me away like before! Get out of my kingdom, if I ever feel your presences in my home again, you will die!"
Percy waved his hand and teleported Annabeth and Jason to the Olympian council chamber before turning to Thalia and Piper.
"I have only so much control before I will kill someone. But, I will never break an oath, if they do step foot in Alaska again to find me, they will die."
