AN: Hi! For all the readers of TZB (my other story), I know I have been late uploading. The next chapter will be up in a few days.

Anyway, I've had this idea stuck in my head for too long. I might continue it, I might not, depending on whether you, as the readers think the story is worth pursuing.

Feel free to review about anything, any feedback is golden for me.

I hope you enjoy this anyway.

Prologue

"Please tell me there's a better option."

A pale man with a flowing, shadowy cloak rasped, his low baritone voice breaking through the silence.

"Unfortunately, that's our only option. Unless, you want our entire Pantheon to be wiped out, because of their ignorance and arrogance." A lady with a white dress and small turquoise tiara calmly stated.

"What about direct intervention? My daughters can't stop us and that ridiculous excuse of a law that their upstart king created has no effect on us." A third figure appeared from the shadows into the dimly-lit meeting area. She carried an iPad, which kept transitioning between images of people and what seemed to be pages of text.

"But what about His rule? Remember, the only reason why the other Pantheons have representatives is because He dictated that deities of each Pantheon cannot not interact with each other directly for fear of conflict." The lady reminded, taking off her tiara and casually twirling it with her right hand.

"So, you're saying we should have representatives?" A fourth figure appeared from thin air. Golden particles orbited his body in slow motion while a golden infinity symbol glowed softly in the breast pocket of his black suit.

"What if the others find out? They won't be happy." The shadows flickered viciously before turning into a deep violet colour.

"Gaia's still sleeping, Ouranos is no longer able to access Earth, Tartarus is stuck in his pit, Pontus quite honestly wouldn't care, Chaos is with Him, Nyx and Erebus are still stuck in Tartarus while Hemera and Aether are nowhere to be seen and Ourea is too weak to confront us. We should be fine Moros." Moros slowly nodded, as if accepting the answer.

"You are playing a dangerous game Physis." The suited figure warned.

"Aion, I believe it is our only choice." The woman with the iPad responded, briefly addressing said person before looking at her iPad once more.

"What Ananke said is correct. If we don't have any representatives, the other Pantheons might seek to eliminate us to expand their influence. The gods are nowhere near their level, but we are above them all. As much as we disagree with the gods, it'd be better they ruled than our entire existence to be wiped out." Physis said with a smooth and gentle voice, transforming her tiara into a white dove.

"Who then, should we choose to be our… representatives? Surely you don't want us to create a spawn of our own." Aion questioned, his golden particles accelerating slightly.

"No that would take too long. Choose a person who best suits your domain. Preferably a god-spawn as they will be more able to handle our powers and are innately prepared for combat." Physis answered, the white dove perched on her shoulder.

"Very well. I hope you plan works Physis. I really hope it does." With that, the shadows wrapped around Moros before sinking into the ground.

"Primordial Representatives, an interesting proposal. Let us hope it works as well as you have presented." Ananke said, not looking up from her iPad.

"Primordial Representatives? I prefer…. Primordial Ambassadors." Aion said, drawing laughs from both Physis and Ananke.

"I like it. Now, we should depart and choose our ambassadors before our demise comes around to meet us."

Chapter 1: Fate Rewritten

~10 Years Before~

"They're beautiful."

A man with raven hair and sea-green eyes lovingly caressed the smooth cheek of his son with his finger.

"Yes, they are." The woman holding her two children in her arms gently rocked them back and forth. The girl nested in her left arm cooed quietly, her inherited sea-green eyes absorbing the new surroundings she was born into. The girl's twin was sleeping peacefully, thumb in mouth. The two children, though they are fraternal twins, looked alike, almost identical. Gazed lovingly at her children as the girl started to play with her mother's brown hair.

"Have you decided on their names?" The man asked, watching in joy and amusement as the girl played with the woman's hair.

"Penthesilea and Perseus Jackson. Penthesilea will be strong, loyal and courageous just like her namesake. Perseus, was one of the only heroes to get a happy ending. I want a happy ending for him – no – both of them." The woman answered, still looking at her babies.

"Sally, those are wonderful names." The man smiled at his lover before looking at his children. "Penthesilea and Perseus. I'm sorry for bringing you a hero's life onto you. I wish that you could live normal lives, free from monsters and danger. But I promise that I will do my best to look after you. Remember, the sea will always be your ally." The man waggled his finger at Penthesilea, drawing small coos and giggles from her. Perseus, on the other hand continued to sleep soundly. Outside, thunder boomed ominously.

"I have to return to Olympus before my brother finds out. I'll try to visit as much as I can. Take care of them Sally. I love you." The man leaned in and kissed Sally before kissing the foreheads of his children.

"See you Poseidon." Sally closed her eyes as the sea god flashed away. Sally opened her eyes once more to look at her two children, both of them now sleeping soundly in her arms.

~.:.~

"Penny! Percy! Your dad's here!" The twins stopped playing with their toys and looked at each other, before running to their mom and dad.

"Daddy!" They chorused, before rushing over to hug their dad. Poseidon chuckled before lifting Penny up into the air, causing Percy to pout.

Over five years, Poseidon kept his promise, visiting Sally, Perseus and Penthsilea once a month. He even put up a charm to suppress their scent from monsters and deities alike. The twins were now five years old, both of them with raven hair and sea-green eyes like their father and lived with their mother in a medium sized house in Montauk. The twins still looked identical except for the fact that Percy was a boy and Penny was a girl.

However, there was something special about the Jackson twins. They could communicate with each other through telepathy. It's funny really. Almost all mortals believe that twins can naturally communicate with each other telepathically. But that's not true. It was physically impossible for mortal twins to engage in telepathic communications. Only demigod twins could and even then, it was a rare occurrence for a pair to be able to do so.

Penny and Percy only discovered their telepathic abilities a few weeks ago when Percy was thinking about taking another cookie from the cookie jar. Penny had 'heard' his thoughts in her head and forewarned her mom about the cookie heist Percy was planning. After Percy had been stopped, Sally had asked Penny how she knew, to which she only responded with "I heard him say it in my head". Ever since that incident, Percy and Penny had been communicating more frequently using their telepathic abilities.

Poseidon put down Penny and ruffled her hair, earning an adorable pout.

"Daddy!" Penny complained, dragging out the vowels as she tried to fix her hair. Percy laughed before Poseidon picked him up, enveloping him in a hug. Poseidon soon put Percy down before hugging Sally. Poseidon opened his mouth to speak before stopping. His face suddenly was enveloped with panic as he realised that an impending doom was hurtling towards his family.

"Sally, get the children out of the cabin. Go to the forest and hide there for now." Poseidon's voice was filled with urgency and fear. Sally quickly grabbed the hands of Penny and Percy before heading towards the door. As soon as they left the house, a giant lightning bolt smote their cabin, completely obliterating it and leaving a crater of smoking debris behind. The children whimpered in fear and the three of them bolted towards the forest.

Sally was shocked at what happened, her home had been completely destroyed, her children a target for the king of gods. She could make out the outline of Poseidon, who was pretending to mourn about their loss as a blonde-haired man in a suit appeared beside him. The two exchanged a few words before the blonde-haired man disappeared, leaving Poseidon to his mock grieving. The god of the seas continued his act for a few more seconds before evaporating away, presumably for all the spectators, to grieve in private. However, the god of the seas actually travelled to where Sally and the twins were hiding, deep in the forest.

"That was too close. I don't know how Zeus was able to find you out, but I can't risk it again. Maybe he detected my presence or the magic signature in my charm. In any case, I don't think its safe for the twins nor you for me to keep visiting you. Move closer to the city; Zeus won't expect that. Try to live a normal life and send the children to camp when they reach twelve." Sally simply nodded as her brain processed what Poseidon said. Thunder once again boomed ominously.

"That must be Zeus calling a council session to gloat about my 'loss'. I love you Sally. Goodbye for now." With that, Poseidon gave one last hug to each person before evaporating once more, his body turning into mist.

"Mommy? Where did daddy go?" Percy asked quietly, still frightened by the whole ordeal.

"To a place where he can protect us Percy."

"When is daddy going to come back?"

"I don't know Penny. I don't know."

~.:.~

"Poseidon, you have been summoned before the Olympic council because you have broken not only your oath, but the Ancient Laws set by the council. You are guilty of siring not one but two children, as well as visiting your children and mortal lover." Zeus declared before the council.

The gods in the council session gasped as it was revealed that Poseidon had two children. As Zeus listed Poseidon's offences, the gods began to mutter among themselves. Athena was smiling smugly at her rival, pleased that he was being punished. Aphrodite, while on the surface did not give off any emotion, smiled on the inside, pleased that Poseidon loved his mortal lover enough to break the Ancient Laws for her. Dionysus did not have any thoughts on the matter, in fact he was barely sober. Hephaestus was barely paying attention; his focus was mainly on the strange contraption in his hands as he fiddled with it. Apollo was not paying any attention at all, shaking his head to the music playing from his headphones. Artemis looked like she'd rather be with her hunters than listen to the condemning of her uncle while Hermes and Ares watched with indifference.

"Like you can talk! You have your own children. Thalia and Jason! I'll just kill them as well!" Poseidon shot back. Zeus ignored his outburst and continued.

"Due to the aforementioned reasons the twins and your lover Sally Jackson have been killed as per the punishments of breaking the Ancient Laws and for breaking your oath."

"So? You didn't kill your own kids when you sired them illegally! Nor did you kill your lover even though you visited her TWICE!" Poseidon angrily exclaimed. Hera look furious, death-glaring her husband who ignored her, fixating his eyes on Poseidon.

"You tried to put the Great Prophecy into motion. The very prophecy that could bring our downfall. Be glad I haven't stripped you of your powers." Zeus said threateningly, his voice leaving no room more discussion. Poseidon angrily bowed his head in mock shame and grief before sitting on his throne.

"Father, is there anything else that needs to be discussed? I need to get back to my hunters." Artemis asked, a bored tone in her voice.

"No, that is all. Council dismissed." Zeus threw his lightning bolt onto the ground, creating a loud boom. As soon as the boom sounded, each individual god or goddess flashed away to their various would-rather-be locations. Soon Poseidon was the only god left in the throne room, excluding Hestia who was contently taking care of the hearth in the throne room. Now, Percy and Penny would be safe. No one would suspect that they were still living.

~.:.~

Sally, Percy and Penny moved into the city of New York and got a small apartment. Sally could only find a job as a clerk in a nearby candy shop and so was struggling to pay for expenses. Not only that, but since Poseidon had to remove the scent suppression charm in order to protect them from being found, Sally had to find a new scent suppressor. One in the form of Gabe Ugliano.

Gabe Ugliano looked like his surname's namesake. A walrus of a man with horrifying features and almost zero personal hygiene. In fact, the only reason Sally chose to marry him was to suppress Penny and Percy's scents. Gabe was so smelly that it had completely masked Percy and Penny's scent, protecting them from monsters and gods alike. However, with this benefit came lots of costs.

Gabe was abusive, treating both twins and parent as trash and slaves respectively. He would constantly hit, scar and maim the twins, with Percy taking the brunt of the abuse to protect his sister. He would often volunteer to take the beatings of his sister, doubling the amount of physical abuse being wrought to him. Gabe was not only an abusive step-father but a parasite to the bank account. He would spend most of his time playing poker with his friends while chewing through any money earned by Sally in her job. In fact, the only reason they were still living in an apartment was that Gabe was friends with the landowner, whom rented it for free to Gabe.

Living conditions at home were only made bearable by their loving mother but the outside world of school was also cruel. Gifted with the curse of ADHD and dyslexia, Penny and Percy struggled at school, unable to keep up with their peers and constantly bullied due to their disabilities. But still, they had each other and that was enough for them to keep their sanity. That was until one fateful afternoon.

"So, play dumb to hide your intellect? That's your strategy?" Penny asked her twin brother as they were walking through Central Park back to their small apartment.

"Yeah, people will underestimate you which could give you an edge in everything. I mean, why do you think Matt didn't suspect me when his bag was superglued onto the floor?" Percy responded, grinning.

"That was you? Oh my goodness, that was so funny!"

Near the edge of the park, a lady with auburn hair and silver eyes observed the twins with interest. "Their aura…. They feel like demigods of Poseidon. But weren't they killed five years ago? Twins…." The lady thought silently, watching as the twins walked towards a nearby playground. "Let's see what Father thinks of this." With that thought in her mind, she flashed back into the throne room.

Back at the throne room, Zeus was polishing his Master Bolt. As Artemis appeared in front of him, he was startled, almost dropping his Master Bolt.

"Artemis? What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be leading your girl scouts – I mean your hunters?" Artemis glared at her father.

"I was going to inform you that I saw two twins with a similar aura to the twins you killed some five years ago. What do you want to do with them?" Zeus paled at the mention that the twins were alive.

"Th-They're alive?" Zeus spluttered. Composing himself, Zeus continued. "I want them dead. The Great Prophecy cannot be allowed to be set into motion, it could end with the downfall of all of us."

"Can I take the girl to join the Hunters?" Artemis asked, prepared to plead and charm her way into convincing Zeus.

"Yes, but if she refuses, she needs to die. Perhaps Hades will have fun torturing them." Zeus replied. "Now, I need to go, there's a spectacular lightning storm that I need to partake in." Zeus flashed away, leaving Artemis alone in the throne room.

"Well, how do I convince my Hunters to kill them?"

~.:.~

"My lady, you want us to kill him?" Zoe Nightshade, lieutenant of the Hunt was confused when she heard what the next assignment the Hunt was going to do.

"Yes, he is another of those disgusting male pigs. Usually we won't kill them, but he is exceptionally bad. Don't let his age fool you, he has been mentored by the vilest of all men and is a terrible influence for his twin sister. I pity the poor girl, terrible things have been done to her; I see bruises, scars and more on her body, no doubt a result of the boy." Artemis explained, distastefully saying the word boy. Zoe, hearing these 'atrocities', was spurred into action.

"If he is as bad as you say, then we must kill him."

"Yes, gather the Hunt. We have a prey to kill."

~.:.~

"Come on Penny! We're going to be late. You know how cranky Gabe can get when we're late." Percy said, playfuly tugging on his sister's sleeve.

"Oh crap! I completely forgot about Gabe. What time is it?"

"5:30pm"

"Then why is there literally no one here?" Penny questioned, looking around the park. Indeed, strangely there was no one anywhere in the park. Penny could've have sworn that a half an hour ago, there were tens of people in the park.

"I don't care and I don't want to know. We need to gooooo." Percy responded, starting to drag Penny from the playground towards the direction of their apartment.

"Unhand her boy." A voice spat. This command was accompanied by the sound of twenty arrows being drawn in synchronicity. Percy immediately let go of his sister and stepped in front of her protectively.

"Who are you and what do you want?" Percy demanded, giving off a façade of confidence. But in reality, he was drowning in fear. Who were these mysterious girls in silver parkas and what do they want? An arrow landed right in front of Percy, snapping him from his thoughts.

"You don't get to ask anything boy." A 12-year old girl with auburn hair and silver eyes walked towards Percy, her bow drawn and aimed at Percy. Percy quickly put his hands up in the air, slowly backing away from the girl. Penny followed suit, standing beside her twin brother.

"Time to die, pig." Zoe said before releasing her arrow. That very arrow pierced Percy's arm, drawing screams from both Percy and Penny. Before long, the rest of the Hunters released their arrows, sending a deadly and accurate volley of arrows towards Percy, painfully piercing his stomach, arms, legs, shoulders and wrists. After the first volley, Penny stepped in front of Percy, shielding him from any further arrows.

"Step aside so that w– Di Immortales! How did Poseidon know? Hunters retreat!" The twelve-year old girl frantically ordered, resulting in absolute pandemonium. Hunters were scattering, rapidly retreating. The smell of sea-water permeated heavily in the air. Penny crouched down, watching as her twin, the other half of her soul was dying from silver arrows shot from mysterious girls in silver parkas.

"Well, I guess I can finally tick being a human porcupine off my bucketlist." Percy said softly, producing a short, pained, mirthless laugh. Penny was sobbing, holding the body of her twin close to her, hugging it the best she could.

"Listen, Penny. We both know that I'm not going to live through this. But… live your life to the fullest. Live it out for me. Who knows, this might not be goodbye. I'll always be with you…" Percy started coughing weakly. "It hurts… and I… can see light. It's… telling me to go. I love… you… Pen…" Percy never finished his sentence. The light left Percy's eyes as he stopped breathing. At the same time, Penny howled in pain and grief. Her mind exploded into mind-numbing pain while her heart ached. She felt as if her very soul was being violently torn in half, a strange emptiness filling her mind and soul.

"Percy! Wake up Percy! Don't leave me!" Penny wailed, sobbing into the body of her now dead twin.

~.:.~

"Father, it is done. The boy is surely dead." Artemis said, casually leaning on her throne.

"And the girl?"

"I can't feel her aura anymore, but the impact of losing her twin will most likely kill her." Artemis nonchalantly replies. Before Zeus could reply, he was interrupted by a furious Poseidon blasting sea water at his face.

"YOU killed my son and daughter! You merciless bastard. They were kids! MY kids!" Poseidon yelled.

"And they were a threat to our very existence brother! Get a hold of yourself. They were children, yes. But that was all they were. Mortals who could topple our power." Zeus reasoned angrily, lightning crackling from his suit. But Poseidon had already turned his attention to Artemis.

"And you Artemis! You have a twin as well! How could you kill another set of twins who were innocent, having committed no crime?" Poseidon questioned threateningly, his trident hovering over Artemis.

"They were a threat Uncle. Do not let your attachment over your children cloud your mind from the full picture." Artemis replied, glaring slightly at Poseidon.

"Cloud my mind? How heartless can you be? So be it Artemis, be careful about any body of water your Hunters touch or are near. Perhaps they will accidentally drown or choke." Poseidon softly said, tears trailing down his face. With no more will to be angry, he flashed away to grieve in his palace in Atlantis.

Meanwhile, a lady with a turquoise tiara walked towards the body of the fallen twin. With a flick of her hand, Penny immediately fell asleep.

"Perseus Jackson. What a terrible fate you have been given. A fate that can be changed. Ananke has rewritten your fate. Perhaps now, you will be able to live and become my ambassador." Physis, looked at the arrow-filled body she was now carrying in her arms.

"How cruel the gods can be. Cruel indeed." Ananke appeared next to Physis.

"Is it done?"

"It is. The boy's soul has been coaxed back into its body. All that is left is for you to heal his body." Ananke advised.

"Thank you Ananke. I wish you good Tyche in finding your own Ambassador."

"I've found mine. I'm simply waiting for the right time to claim her."

That's the prologue/first chapter. How was it?

Anyway, peace be with you all!
