A/N: Hey guys! This is my first ever fanfic so please be nice and please don't hate me if it's bad. It will have more planning next chapter but in chapter 3 there will be fighting. Percy will be a badass in this story so you have been warned!
EDIT: I have reworked this chapter as I don't think it was that good. I made serious edits. And if I should take out the camp at the end let me know. So yeah. Self-criticism.
Chapter 1: Council
Two men appeared from the shadows, standing about a metre apart. For a minute they just stood in the moonlit courtyard, before beginning their long walk down one of the lanes spiralling of from it. ''What news have you brought now'' the taller man asked. He was wearing a deep blue cloak with lightning crackling at his fingertips.
''The best sort of news'' the other man replied. He was wearing a blood red suit with black embroidery detailing horrible demises in his domain. They continued down their path in relative silence, when the first man stopped and raised his hand.
''There's something there.'' He looked angry or rather, annoyed.
''It's just a skeleton I called for, I wanted to alert our master of our presence'' The second man looked wary of upsetting the first.
''Fine'' The silence then resumed.
''Do you know how G is doing?'' The second man probed ''I haven't heard anything about her distraction''
''T, how would I know how my wife is doing'' The man known as T looked incredulous.
''She is your wife U'' U stopped suddenly, disregarding what T had just said. There was a small flash and another man appeared. He had aristocratic features with blond hair and was wearing a white suit.
''A, you are only just on time'' U said with a look of contempt growing on his face.
''I know, I know.'' A raised his hands in defence, ''I was caught up negotiating with Pontu-''
''P'' T cut him off, ''you never, never know who's listening.''
''Will he join?'' U inquired
''He said once we show our power he'd consider it.'' A answered. U quivered with rage. He looked at the bush growing near the path and it exploded in a display of his awesome raw power.
''Come on we will be late'' T walked off with the other two catching up. The previous silence restarted as the three neared a door. It opened as they neared, revealing a long dark hallway with what looked to be the Chimera curled around a giant's foot. They turned right into a dark, cold drawing room that was, illuminated only with firelight, where around ten people were seated around a table. They took their appropriate seats' with A sitting three seats away from the head, T sitting on the head's direct left and U sitting at the other end.
''Nice of you to join us'' a cold woman's voice said this.
''Can we use our real names and get rid of this us-forsaken Darkness please?'' A said, looking at the head.
''Erebus, if you would'' Erebus nodded and the Darkness lifted. At the head was a woman with pale skin and pitch black eyes with no whites. She had a black toga and black sandals with black lipstick and spiked, black gloves to complete her Queen Goth look. This was Nyx, the leader. T, or Tartarus sat down on her left. On his right was Echidna, Mother of Monsters, who had her grotesque features plastered with blood from feasting on a half blood.
Next to her was Eris, looking like someone who had to deal with all the strife in the world. The goddess had raggedy hair and a dreamy smile with a tatty dress. To Eris' left was the titan lord Kronos. But he had come alone as the rest of the Titans had refused to help the Primordials' cause. Annabeth Chase was to Kronos' left and she looked scared but excited. She had accepted the offer to be the head strategist that put her in command over such leaders as Napoleon Bonaparte and Genghis Khan. She had completely forgotten her allegiance to the Olympians with this offer. Still, she wished she could speak to Percy more, but war is war. Uranus was to Annabeth's left.
To his left was a very happy looking Hera, who had abandoned Zeus for Erebus and was the Primordial's spy in Olympus. She had come with Persephone, who needed no persuasion to abandon Olympus since she despised her husband.
Sat next to Persephone were Aether and Erebus. Erebus had a surprisingly casual look about him. He a days' worth of stubble and long black hair. He had a Hollister hoodie and a pair of dark grey chinos. For footwear he had battered Vans. Gaia, on the other hand had a very formal look about her. She had a brown suit blazer and formal skirt that was coupled with red heels. This was the Primordial War Council and would be in command of the vast armies they had at their disposal.
''What of Pontus?'' Erebus asked
''We need to prove our power'' Aether replied
''What! After all we've done for that backstabbing little git, he does this!'' Gaia was seething with rage and the ground was shaking.
''Gaia, calm down and tell us how the war is going'' Nyx tried to intervene before the place collapsed.
Gaia calmed down at this and explained the events of her Decoy war or Giant War.
''The Romans and Greeks have combined their strength to try to defeat me. But even then they are only just doing so. I feel we will not even have to try with our war. In fact even Aether on his own could destroy them.''
''OI! I'm just as powerful as you!''
''Yeah.'' Gaia snickered. ''Sure.''
''We will have order.'' Nyx commanded. Being in command of several super gods was not easy.
''What of our plans Annabeth?'' Uranus had to know. He needed to know if he had been correct in recruiting the best strategist the half-bloods had.
''I have the basic outline here, if Hera would…'' At this prompt Hera waved her hand and papers covered the table. ''Gaia and Uranus will be the first to attack in three weeks' time. They will use their strength to attack San Francisco, and more specifically, New Rome. It will be a complete decimation, so no holding back. Two weeks after that Nyx and Tartarus will attack Los Angeles. I will leave details to your tactician, who is he?''
''Napoleon'' Nyx replied
''He can sort out minor details. While they are attacking Aether will attack Las Vegas, and you will rule Nevada from there. Erebus, when you are ready, I would like you to take the Underworld from Hades. Hera will spy for us on Olympian lines and Persephone the same with the Underworld. Eris convince the mortal leaders to attack each other. Echidna supply monsters for our side. We will wait one month after the Vegas attack to crush New York. To keep the Olympians busy, we will stage skirmish attacks on Denver, Washington D.C. and Chicago. All six Primordials will participate in the New York attack. This should guarantee a victory and crush the Olympians and their demigods. Remember, we are not fighting a guerrilla war. If you need reinforcements, just request them. Though I don't know what you will be thought of around this table.'' There were titters at her close.
''Well if that is all I adjourn this meeting to prepare for the attacks'' Nyx was getting weary of this. ''Gaia, you have three weeks to end the Phony War.''
Annabeth retired to her quarters. Without her the meeting carried on.
''Kronos is the camp ready?'' Hera asked
''It will be ready by the first attack, do not worry.''
''And will all the facilities be ready?''
''They will be ready. Even the gallows.''
Persephone jumped in.
''You do realise this will be the worst atrocity in the history of man. Ο θάνατος των θνητών will never be forgiven.''
''The death camp is necessary. I assure you.''
A/N: Well that's it! I hope you liked it and I'll be updating regularly. Leave a review please. Si vis pacem, para bellum.
