Hey guys it's objudge125 and this is my new story called "Heir to the Protogenoi". I know a lot of people wanted to see a king of the gods story but I just got this idea and I think that you might just enjoy this story. Hopefully you do. This story is a Percy x Hera story because I feel like there isn't really many of those stories.
If you haven't read my first story, The Family Of Chaos, GO READ IT. I will continue writing that story along with this one. I really hope you like this story. Leave a review on what you would like to see in this story or just PM me. If you have a problem with the story, do the same.
I do not own PJO or HOO. I own nothing but the plot.
June 21, 1993- Planet Nibiru home of the Primordials
In a small house in the corner of the planet Nibiru, home of the Primordials, a baby's cry was heard. In the house was a tall man with tan skin and green eyes. Lying in the bed beside him was a beautiful woman with pale skin and long black hair and red tips. Her eyes were pitch black. She was holding a baby in her arms. The baby, born just seconds before, already had tufts of black hair sprouting from his head.
He opened his eyes. They were a bright sea green color with a ring of black around the pupils.
"He's so cute" the woman murmured. The man smiled. "He's going to be a heart breaker when he gets older" he said. The woman glared at the man. "He better not be." The man chuckled.
Nyx, the Primordial of Night and Pontus, the Primordial of the seas looked lovingly down at their son.
"What will his name be?" Pontus asked. Nyx seemed to think about it for a couple seconds. "Perseus. Perseus will be his name. He willbe my destroyer." Pontus smiled.
"What about Erebus?" Pontus asked. "He will try to kill the child." A look of disgust came on Nyx's face at the mention of her husband.
"I don't know where we can send him. It is a place Erebus will never go because of an old feud. We will send him to Earth. We can ask Gaea and Tartarus to protect him there. Erebus will not dare to try anything with both of them there." Pontus nodded sadly. "If it is the only way, it shall happen."
Nyx kissed her baby on the head. "We will hide him for as long as possible. When his aura becomes strong enough for Erebus to notice, we will send him to Earth. I just want to spend as much time with him as possible." Nyx gave Perseus to Pontus to hold. "Now I must sleep. I need to regain as much energy as possible just in case my dear husband tries anything." Nyx fell asleep as Pontus played with Perseus for a little while before he lay down next to Nyx with Percy between them. All of them drifted off to sleep.
Line Break-Eight years later, still in Nibiru
Pontus, the Primordial of the seas, and Nyx the Primordial of Night, were currently sitting solemnly in silence, waiting for their eight year old son Percy to come out from his room. The boy appeared at the top of the stairwell and descended the stairs into the living room where he sat on the couch opposite his parents and waited for them to talk.
The boy was extremely tall for a eight year old. He was already 4"7 inches and he weighed 65 pounds. His hair was a mess, no matter how much Nyx tried to tame it.
Nyx and Pontus had tried to train Percy as much as possible before sending him to Earth so that he could be safe from Erebus. It turns out that that wasn't much of a problem. From the time he was three, Percy was fascinated by weapons. When he was three, Pontus had barely stopped him from taking off his own head with a giant axe twice his weight. By the time he was five he was fighting with swords twice his weight. His favorite weapons were the sword, hunting knives, and the bow and arrow. He was real good with those three weapons. He was good with almost all the other weapons, though. You could just hand him anything to fight with and he would probably win the fight.
"My son" Pontus said. Percy looked up at him. "Yes father?"he answered.
"You know what time it is" Pontus said. Perseus nodded sadly. Nyx's eyes were already wet. "Chaos has agreed to open a portal for you so that you can go straight to Earth from here. First, though, I have a couple of gifts for you." Percy's eyes widened. Pontus went upstairs and came back down a couple of minutes later with three packages.
"These, my son, are for you." Percy hopped off the couch and snatched the packages from his father and hopped back on the couch. Percy immediately began ripping open the first package. It was a sword. The sword was three and a half feet long, almost as tall as Percy. The hilt was imperial gold and the blade itself was made from Chaos steel, the strongest substance in the Universe.
"You like it?" Pontus asked, looking nervous when Percy didn't say anything. Instead of answering, Percy bounded over to Pontus and gave him a hug. "Are you crazy? I love it!" Pontus smiled. "Go on open your other ones." Percy ran back to the couch and ripped open his second package. He gasped. It was a pair of hunting knives. They were about two feet long and they were completely celestial bronze. When Percy spun them in his hand, though, they suddenly elongated until they were each three feet long. Percy grinned up at his parents. "These are awesome" he said. Nyx laughed. "You still have one more present to open."
Percy tore open the last one to reveal a beautiful bow. The grip was made of smooth wood and it was black with streaks of red in it. "That's from your mother" Pontus said.
"It's beautiful." Nyx smiled. Pontus snapped his fingers and all the weapons transformed into everyday items. The knives became gold bracelets, the sword became a pen, and the bow became a necklace. Percy grinned at his father but it quickly disappeared when Pontus spoke.
"You will not see us for a very long time after this. Please be careful. Remember, you will not become immortal until you're sixteen. Try not to die until then." Percy laughed. "I will be careful dad, I promise."
"We have to send you to and orphanage on Earth. Hopefully a clear sighted mortal or a demigod will pick you up" Nyx said. "I pray to Chaos that we will see you again." Tears suddenly formed in Percy's eyes.
"Bye mommy" he said. (Please don't flame me he's 8 years old).
Percy walked over to his mother and gave her one last hug. Then he hugged his father. He put on his bracelets, pocketed his pen, and wore his necklace.
"Come" Nyx said, "It's time to go to Chaos for your portal." Nyx took Percy's hand and flashed to Chaos' temple in the middle of Nibiru.
"Lord Chaos" Nyx said, bowing, "here is my son." Percy, on the other hand, didn't bow.
"Hello mister!" he said, and to Nyx's horror, bounded over to Chaos and sat down right on his lap.
Immediately, Nyx ran over and scooped Percy off of Chaos' lap (again, he's 8). "I'm so sorry my lord please do not hurt him." Instead of being angry, though, Chaos laughed heartily.
"It's okay. Before I open the portal, I have some people who want to meet young Perseus." Chaos waved his hand and a door on the right wall opened, revealing four primordial. They were Ouranus, Eros, Chronos, and Tartarus. All walked into the room and looked over at Chaos. "Go on" he said.
Chronos stepped forward in the form of and old man, which was his usual form.
"Perseus" he said. "We are here to bless you. We have no wish for Erebus to destroy you and we cannot stop him because as primordials, we swore to never fight one another. That's why we'll bless you." Percy said nothing. Chronos looked up at Nyx.
"How will we do this without hurting him?"
Chaos said,"I know. I did this before for Aether once, when he asked me to. Hold out your hands and shoot out your blessings." They complied, and all shot out different colored beams of light from their palms. The beams combined to form a multicolored ball in the middle of the room. The ball floated over to Chaos, who took it in his palm. He summoned a drinking glass and stuffed the ball into the glass. The ball swirled and swirled in the glass. It changed shape and form until it was liquid. Then Chaos handed the glass to Percy, who drank it without asking any questions. He began to glow different colors for a good three minutes before finally, he returned to normal.
"What happened" he asked. Nyx laughed, then quickly stopped, remembering that this was the last time she'd see her son for years.
"Hurry, before Erebus can come and ruin everything" Chaos said. You see, though no one liked Erebus, he was still a Primordial and lived on Nibiru. The only people that didn't have a problem with Erebus were Ananke, Phanes, and Aion. Why did no one like him? Well for one, he was a scumbag who slept with a mortal woman three days after marrying Nyx. He murdered all of Nyx's lovers brutally, and he forced her to comply with whichever way he voted when the Primordial council had a vote. Plus, him, Phanes and Aion acted like they ran the Primordial council whenever Chaos wasn't around. And almost everyone was pretty sure that Erebus was having an affair with Ananke.
Anyways, Chaos opened the portal and ushered Percy through. Percy gave his mother one last hug before hopping through the portal.
"Good luck" Nyx whispered as the portal closed.
