Summary: Percy Jackson loses her mother at a young age and Gabe obviously would love to get rid of her. So she takes her life into her own hands and becomes a executor of magic law, sentencing spirits, ghosts, and monsters not of the Greek variety. Of course that's probably going to make the gods and campers speechless! Fem!Percy, elements from Muhyo and Roji. No prior knowledge needed.
A/N: Self-betaed so please excuse grammar and spelling mistakes. And reviews would be lovely because this is just a test chapter to see if I should continue with it and no, I'm not abandoning my other stories. I do not own Percy Jackson or Muhyo & Roji
Prologue
Percy was a prodigy. Being an executor of the magic law could attest to that.
Doubly so considering how young she was when she gained that rank at the age of nine and without having attended the academy.
An executor was the highest rank a person with a career in magic law could gain. Normally, it could take years and years to climb up the ranks but there were rare exceptions. Only executors could use the magical laws.
In fact, she was the second 'child' to receive the title of executor after Muhyo Toru of Japan.
The lower more common ranks were given a magic sealing pen where they could right seals on tags to help them put up barriers or bind and destroy ghosts as the three categories of seals they could make.
Magic law books were easier to employ against ghosts but took up more energy that is referred to as tempering so only the best of the best could use them. Unfortunately, executors were few in number.
But Percy succeeded and became an executor. After all, she had a troubled home life and no friends so she focused on reading as a child. And by the time of her mother's sudden death, she became more isolated and withdrawn.
It was by pure chance that she found the sole magic beginner's law book that had somehowby some means ended up in a dreary corner of the library she frequented in. Two pages in and she was hooked.
She quickly devoured the book and used the internet to find out more about the association, but not before painstakingly learning japanese so she could actually get some of an idea of what the website in japanese said.
What was magic law you ask? Magic Law is a type of magic where ghosts that have committed crimes are judged and then sentenced.
Basically like ghost busting except you evaluated the many crimes a ghost could commit and judging the appropriate sentence that said ghost should receive based on the severity of the crime(s) and circumstances.
So as time went by and she became proficient in the know hows of the laws, she contacted the Magic Law Association and was sent a magic pen for drawing seals. So she chased after spirit after spirit, gaining experience and quickly went up the ranks at the age of eight.
By nine years of age, she became an executor and received her own magic law book, the real deal at that. And being an executor certainly had its perks.
She got emancipated and changed her name to signal a new beginning.
With that, she opted to open her very own law firm in Louisiana.
She named it after the word or name Aria which meant 'lion' or 'prayer.' It seemed to be a quite a fitting name.
Believe or not, Louisiana actually was one of the best places to open a law firm.
Most would have told her to stick to New York City or Los Angeles seeing as how they had high populations of spirits due to high crime rates and just a large human population in general.
Those people were what are known as idiots. Please feel free to ignore them in the future to your content or as much as you like. Stupidity is contagious after all.
No one except a rare few would actually believe in spirits over there. And no believers meant no pay for business. She would have gone bankrupt in a few months.
Of course that didn't mean people didn't set up in cities similar to those in the rest of the world, but you had to have been established for a while for at the very least two years.
To have a proper clientele in a large city like that, you had to have handled a few cases to build connections so others would recommend you or promote you as the real deal.
The world was full of sceptics after all in this modern age.
Only total newbies would automatically settle in a big city. That's why there weren't many executors anymore.
Once the new blood without proper guidance or common sense realized how little business they were getting, they gave up on a magical law career leaving less people remaining in the business that were dedicated enough to want to move up in the ranks.
You had to have funds for living expenses while you were practicing and studying as well as gaining experience with dealing with ghosts and the like.
In fact, it was so bad that she was the only executor of magical law in America.
Even Goryo didn't have offices there with how little executors and an overflow of ghosts and sceptics there. And Goryo was the head of the Sendai Sect which controlled 99 different firms all over the world.
Japan at least had traditions that allowed it to be a country where people believed in ghosts so most offices tend to be located there.
Honestly, it was harder leading and being on your own and that was what an executor did in most cases.
Now Louisiana however had believers, especially among or near the bayous due to their heritage, making things so much more easier.
It was also there that she met Lysander Winsley, a stubborn and determined teenager who begged her to take him in as her assistant.
Normally she would have ignored him too but after seeing his resolve, she relented and took him on as a pupil and assistant. And despite his lack of knowledge on magical law, he made it up in spades with his hard work.
And so the Aria and Co. Magic Law Firm thrived.
Lysander Winsley remembered it clearly, the day he saw an executor at work. He would never forget those feelings of shock and awe that had filled him that day.
You see Lys, as Percy tended to shorten his name too, had always been very popular. He had it all: looks, smarts, and talent.
He had always been considered handsome by girl with his light blonde hair and piercing grey eyes. He was also kinda smart even though he had dyslexia and ADHD. He loved to sing, play music, and was very athletic. All in all, the makings of a popular teen.
Or at least that's how the rest of his school thought so.
To tell you the truth, people only flocked towards him because of his so-called 'popularity'. He hated it. They were all fakers.
Lys was smart enough to know one slip up and they would be against him and ridiculing of him. They were only friendly towards him because of his gifts and he hated it.
He had no friends.
He also didn't have an idea of what he wanted to do with his life back then even if he was eighteen and graduating in one-and-a-half months. And that scared him.
Or it did until one day he met her, the person he would call friend and teacher in the close future.
Yay, it's longer than how I started my other stories! I started reading this manga called Muhyo and Roji and fell in love with it but this is not a cross. I just started to think how life would be if Percy was an executor. I wonder if Lord Hades would like her for making his job easier...Well, anyway review! I base if I should continue my stories on reviews cause they give me motivation. :D Anyway, hope you enjoyed this little fic and no Lys is not Annabeth at all. Do you want to guess who's the godly parent of Lys?
Anyway, at this point I'm just setting up the story so no dialogue in this chapter. You do not need knowledge of Muhyo and Roji to read this fic because I will explain EVERYTHING and if you guys have questions you could message me, but it is amazing so I recommend it to people who like the supernatural genre. I did expand on some stuff from the manga though. Oh and this is not a crossover because 1. no section for crossovers with Muhyo & Roji 2. none of the characters are really in it or play too big of a role but I might reference them.
Review and tell me what you think!
