(I hope this story is actually worth the time of the random MCGA fans who read this, if you guys are only into Fierrochase stories, you can check out my story 'When a Magnus loves a womanman'… the story is better than the title. Anyway, thanks to 'The Imaginative Babbler, justsmileandwaveboys, killerninja123', for writing PJO read the books fanfics that inspired me to do this, thank you so much :D) On a completely different matter, this story is set after Ship of the dead…since I'm planning on doing all three books…hopefully…
Me: Alright Percy, say it don't spray it.
Percy: Help! HE has me hostage and-Mmmflffgg…
Me: What Percy meant to say was-
Magnus : Was that he's holding me hostage too! Come save-ow!
Me: We'll do this again during the next chapter. BTW, I don't own MCGA or PJO, or else my fanfic of the R. Riordan files wouldn't just be a fanfic.
-CHB : 3rd Person POV
Percy was just lounging by the beach, Annabeth by his side, when the three Fates appeared in front of them.
"Perseus Jackson…", the Middle Fate said. Percy stood up, albeit a tad bit nervous, he knew that the Fates didn't do house calls for just anyone. "What do you want now?"
"Mind your tone Perseus. You may be the saviour of Olympus, but we still govern your life force. ", they all said it in harmony, as much harmony as three old shrivelled hags could be. "Powerful, shrivelled hags mind you, Perseus."
Percy cocked his head, "Since when can you read my mind?" They all laughed, and Annabeth hugged him tight.
"Don't worry, this visit is not a case of life forces. We are here to better unite the worlds." Percy let out a breath and sighed in relief. "Thank goodness-wait, did you say worlds? As in with an s? Meaning plural?"
Annabeth stepped forward shakily, "You're not talking about my cousin…are you?"
The Fates just nodded. Annabeth wrung her hair in worry, and Percy frowned. "What does this have to do with me?" The Fates gave him a malodorous stink eye. "Did you listen to what we just said?"
"Oh yeah, sure…unite worlds, powerful hags and controlling my life force." Annabeth tugged on his arm. "What?"
"Do you want to get your life force snipped after all this time, seaweed brain?" Percy sighed. "I'm sorry, alright? Please don't turn me into a patch of floating kelp."
The Fates snorted. "We need you around to do dome reading, you can't do that as a patch of kelp, could you?" Percy nodded gratefully. "Wait, reading?"
Annabeth had a slight smile on her face, reading and Percy together? It ought to be fun.
"Now come.", they said. The middle Fate waved her hand, and they all dissolved in a shower of light.
-HV : Magnus POV
Magnus hated that one time when his not-so-heroic blooper video was broadcast to an entire army of teenagers, he hated his luck worse when the Norns appeared and told them all that they had to read all of Magnus' adventures compiled in three books, in front of the whole army of Valhalla. Well…the teenager part of the entire army anyway.
He also didn't like when the Norns mentioned that there would be quote-and-quote, visitors. What visitors? Gods? If it was Thor, we would be in for a long few days. At least Helgi had the decency to announce it as NOT reading to the death.
I wasn't sure how the foreigners who couldn't understand English could participate, but I didn't want to think about that. Alex was smiling often these days, and she tended to avoid me with shy eyes. Unless she was a he, then he tended to sidle up to me and grin evilly. It started after the announcement, and I knew she was going to enjoy torturing me during the reading.
Alex was female right now, so she was off in the lounge, avoiding me. I sighed, perhaps she would lose track of time and end up forgetting that the reading was due to start in a few minutes. It would be for the best.
Then the horn from the feast hall of the slain sounded, and I knew Alex wouldn't be losing track of time. Those horns were so loud I could probably hear them from the other side of Boston. I got to the feast hall just as the main stream of einherjar arrived. Some were giving me looks of envy, and others awe, the rest just stayed away from me.
I felt a lumbering presence behind me, and Halfborn approached, hugging me close and beating my back. "You lucky swina bqllr!" He told me, laughing good naturedly. Please don't ask me what it means, it's a part of a pig I never wanted to learn how to say in Norse.
Mallory Keen punched me in the shoulder, "Now we'll get to see the stuff you did that you didn't tell us about.", she said. "You guys seen Alex?", I asked.
Right on cue, Alex landed on my shoulder in the form of a sparrow and transformed back into human form just as two ravens appeared, ready to peck her eyes out. "Oh, shoo you stupid birds.", she said.
Then she turned on me, a malicious gleam in her eyes. "So Maggie, you ready for me to learn your deepest, darkest secrets?" I gulped. "I-I'm pretty sure the Norns didn't include that in the books…right guys?" I looked to Halfborn and Mallory, but they both looked like Alex.
"Where's T.J.? He'd probably support me…" I looked around and spotted T.J. waving us over to a nice table he got us. "Come on guys, we're wasting time here." Sam dropped down from the sky, quite literally, and landed next to me, dusting off her hijab, she settled down at our table.
As the whole room was seated, Helgi stood up and offered complementary words to me, how amazing my feats were, my achievements, bla, bla, bla. Then he was interrupted as a flash of golden light exploded behind him.
Three old ladies stepped out, who looked very much similar to the Norns. If I hadn't seen the Norns in person, I would have thought that these were there split image. Then I recognized the two people behind the three hags. Unfortunately, Alex did too.
"Hey, Percy! Annabeth!", she yelled. Waving her garrotte at them enthusiastically. Percy managed a small wave back before shrinking from the looks of thousands of dead warriors.
The old ladies cleared their throats, "This is Perseus Jackson! Savior of Olympus and Son of Poseidon!" Helgi gasped, and Hunding coughed as if he had a spear stuck in his esophagus. Lief Erikson stood up and cursed blatantly about how we shouldn't be mixing with other mythologies.
Whispers were murmured in the crowd, then outrage as all the thousands of einherjar started shouting and throwing mugs and plates. I suddenly found Blitz and Hearth beside me, seeming to have materialized out of nowhere.
"How did you guys get here?", I asked. Hearth mimed a closing of lips, and I understood.
"WE WILL NOT TOLERATE ROWDINESS!", the loud roar of the three outmatched even the loud outbursts in the feast hall. And followed an eerie silence that I've never heard in the feast hall before.
"You shall all read with Mr. Perseus Jackson and his girlfriend the daughter of Athena, Miss Annabeth Chase." The middle one pushed both of them forward. "We will be taking our leave now."
Percy sighed and rubbed his forehead as he watched the Fates disappear in a bathe of light. The room slowly regained it's noise and everything went back to normal.
Helgi stared at Percy, then me, then Alex and Annabeth. A book dropped from the sky, landing at Helgi's feet. He picked it up peering a glance at the cover.
"Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard…the Sword of Summer…" Helgi frowned and scratched his beard. "Well, I guess we should let the graecus scum sit first." Hunding whispered something into Helgi's ear, and he nodded. "Yes, good idea. Go sit over there with the Vanir-spawn, you might enjoy each other's company."
Percy sighed in relief at seeing Magnus and Alex's faces, at last, people I recognize! Annabeth smiled as well. "Magnus, long time no see bro." Percy fist bumped with me and shook hands with Alex. Annabeth pulled me in a hug and punched me in the shoulder. "Ow…what was that for?" Annabeth shrugged, "You haven't contacted me in months, you little…"
Helgi cleared his throat, "Alright, we will start reading! Settle down everyone. Chapter one! Good morning, You're going to die!"
(I'll be starting next chapter soon, I just wanna know if people will actually want to read this.)
