My first story so please be nice.
I do not own Percy Jackson or any of the books Rick Riordan owns them I only own my plot. This is the only time I am putting a disclaimer that means it goes for the whole story.
This is a dark Percy story maybe a pairing later but not yet.
I am writing this because I like the idea of evil Percy and with Tartarus as a father there are several possibility's off new demigod powers and blessings there will be character bashing, possible torture and death.
I am going to be rewriting some of this story to make it flow better and to include things that got deleted by mistake in the later chapters. I hope you will like the changes. I will also be removing some content from the last chapters as I have lost where it was going and my notes on what was supposed to happen in them so it will probably be a full rewrite on those parts. Sorry in advance if you liked any of the content that I am replacing but I feel that it has to be done.
Tartarus Pov
I looked at the earth and sighed for over a millennia the gods have neglected there duties abused each of their domains and for just as long the demigods that they are constantly spawning through broken oaths are left to be hunted by the monsters of their own creation. "I may be the jailer of the monsters and enemy's of the gods but over half the monsters that I imprison are only in existence because of some gods crime against the natural order" Tartarus mused to himself. If only I was not confined to the pit I would show the gods the error of their ways. This thought quickly became an idea the only reason that I am confined to the pit is because that is my form but if I create a new form then I will be able to leave.
I concentrated my energy and mind into a new form once I had a form pictured in my mind I released my energy into the form and created it, I then allowed my spirit to enter the form and realised that I would probably need to work out how to control this new body. I noticed that while my new body may have the potential to surpass any of the gods in everyway at the moment, I would probably lose to any of the gods even the minor ones. Simply because I do not know how to efficiently use my new form or how to access my powers. "How will I be able to learn how to control this form and its powers as I have absolutely no clue how a functioning form even works?" I asked myself in slight frustration. "Maybe I should visit someone who actually has experience with a working body. maybe its time that I visited my son Damasen? He may not know it but he is my favourite child out of the children that me and Gaea created. I hope he will be able to forgive me and help train me." With this decided I focused myself into appearing before Damasen. As I am the embodiment of the pit I can monitor anything that happens inside me simply by making my subconscious appear anywhere within myself, knowing this I decided to try and do what I do to monitor the pit but instead of it being my subconscious that appears it is my new form.
Damasen's Pov
This is beyond strange a man has just appeared before me he seemed to rise up from a hole hat opened up in front of me he is radiating the energy of my father so it has to be him. He has never visited me before and never had a visible form before either what could he want from me? I shrugged this thought off and strode over to my father to greet him. "umm... hello father to what do I owe this visit?" I shifted awkwardly on my feet not really sure why he was here and I didn't want to offend him. I scratched the back of my neck my father just beamed at me before frowning.
"Can I not just wish to see my favourite child every once in a while?" I was expecting their to be some kind of mocking tone in his voice at this but he seemed sincere.
"Well you can but tell me this what has stopped you from visiting before now then?" Tartarus grimaced at that and I felt rather smug.
"Ah ha yes well umm you see... I only just realised that I could actually create a new form for myself. If I had have realised sooner then I would have actually visited but I was always there for you." He said solemnly to me.
"Really you and my charming mother imprisoned me in here for the past gods knows how many years and NOW you decide that I'm worthy of being acknowledged?" I was fuming at my father for the way he had treated me for the past millennia.
"Is that what you think of me? You do realise that I had no control over your fate it was Gaea who imprisoned you and forced me to bear witness as the rest of your brothers were slaughtered for nothing but her personal gain and even then she failed I did not approve of what she did to you but I was powerless to stop it. But as I said you still remain my favourite child and though I'm not happy about your situation, I have a solution to your curse I have found a way to brake it"
"Do you mean it?" I asked not wanting to get my hopes up.
"Yes my son I do I only ask of one thing from you and I will tell you the secret to breaking your curse" I knew there was going to be a catch but I suppose if its an end to my curse I will have to do it.
"What is it that you want father?" I asked trying not to sound desperate but the thought of finally being free was my only dream I could hold onto.
"I would like you to help train me in how to use my new form and I know that I will have to earn it but I would also like your forgiveness."
"That is two things father." I said with a mischievous grin. Tartarus opened his mouth as if to dispute it but I cut him off. "But it seems reasonable and you have my forgiveness father all you had to do was ask." He grinned at me and I felt a wave of relief wash over me.
"Thank you son now about your curse there are two ways in which it can be broken. The first way is that you have to befriend the Drakon and break the cycle of where it reforms and you have to kill it."
"And what is the other option?"
"I simply make the Drakon stop reforming ever again and you will be released but choose wisely as a Drakon is a powerful ally."
"I will befriend the Drakon father it may not have been a merciful creature but it could still learn." I told my father after thinking about the positive and the negatives.
"I will leave you now but if you meet me at my heart we can begin my training."
"Thank you father I will see you soon" With that my father left in a column of black smoke. I could only assume that he went to his heart.
Time skip 1 year Nobody's Pov (Polyphemus "Nobody where Is he I will smash YOU NOBODY!")
Tartarus is speaking to Damasen after there final training session.
"At last I am finally ready to teach those gods a lesson in humility."
"But father wont that simply put you on there level?" Damasen sounded annoyed so Tartarus looked at him determined.
"That may be a problem but I am only doing this as they are too shallow and conceited to change their ways so I must punish or destroy those that I do not deem as worthy of their godhood some may not be too arrogant and can be saved but all will know my wrath." As he said this the dark void of Tartarus eyes ignite and cast a light into the depths of his eyes there seemed to be a battle between the two contrasting features of Tartarus' eyes but in the end the void won and claimed the fire back into darkness. Damasen just watched this mesmerised before slowly realising that his father was correct and that if the gods where ever going to change their ways someone needed to call them out on there problems.
"Father I don't want to upset you but you do realise that it is against the ancient laws for you to directly interfere with the mortal realm." Tartarus was beyond angry he stomped his foot in frustration and the whole pit (and the world) shook violently
"That is not possible I am a primordial I AM above the ancient Laws!" Tartarus stated to Damasen angrily, Thunder boomed all around Tartarus as he finished this statement a hole opened in the ground and a white light poured out as the light faded it revealed an ancient and powerful being it was the Lady Chaos and she did not look happy.
"You forget yourself Tartarus you maybe above the ancient laws but you are still bound by the divine laws. I set the ancient laws so that my creations would not wither and die pointless deaths I have watched the gods and I have no love for them but the ancient laws still protect them these laws are the key to why my creations are still (mostly) alive today. I cannot allow you to break them no matter how just your cause maybe."
Tartarus just looked crestfallen."Then my plans and training was pointless I have failed before I even began." Chaos looked at Tartarus then smirked.
"You have not failed you just need to change your approach"
"How can he do that though Lady Chaos surely there is no other way." Damasen did not want to give false hope to his father especially when there was no hope to begin with.
"Are you sure about that Damasen you are living proof that it is possible."
"I may be his child born only to oppose Olympus but out of all of us giants I am the only one formed and I will not fight unless its for peace what you are suggesting is starting a war and that goes against my philosophy." Tartarus looked at Damasen shocked that he did not understand the genius behind Lady Chaos's words.
"Don't you get it Damasen if I cant directly oppose Olympus then I shall have to sire a child who can I am going to have a demigod child. Wait no not Demigod it will be a Demordial child who can enforce my wrath on the Olympians."
Chaos smiled at Tartarus and said "When the time comes I shall give your child my Blessing may they use it wisely"
"Thank you Lady Chaos you don't know what this means to me." With that Damasen and Tartarus both bowed respectfully.
"Until next time we meet my friend." Lady Chaos vanished in a golden flash of divine light.
"This is going to be interesting Damasen what powers do I give my child and seeing as I have influence over several domains there will be many I can give to him."
"That is Great father but when shall we go to the surface I haven't seen the sky in so long shall we go now or do you require further preparations?"
"We will leave immediately but first we need to hide our true forms from the Olympians no need in them getting worried over two immense powers that dwarf there own in comparison." he said with a chuckle and created a new form for Damasen and hid his own powers before summoning a portal to the surface which they both stepped through.
So this is the revised chapter 1 let me know what you think.
