Chapter 1 Prologue and Manifest
The Void
The Primordial Chaos was floating through the void with a grin on his face, he had finally found someone to wield the power of Darkness. What is the power of darkness you might ask well it is something his brother Order unleashed onto the galaxy. Originally Darkness existed with their father Unknown but according to legend Darkness vanished from the galaxy leaving no trace behind, that was until Order released it from the prison Unknown had sealed him into.
Finally free Darkness started to conquer the galaxy one planet after another. The Primordial's that hadn't gone to sleep united to face this new threat, but they weren't strong enough to stop him, he was one of the Original Creators and nothing they had could stop him. When the war began Darkness revealed he wasn't alone instead he had several commanders that could match the Primordial's in power, not only that but he also had his own personal army that was determined to conquer everything that stood in there way.
As the Primordial's continued to fall one after another against the coming horde, there father Chaos had awakened from his millennium long slumber and went to battle alongside his remaining children that had managed to resist them despite there dwindling power. It proved to be too late however, Darkness and his armies had spread out of control and now they were nearly impossible to defeat. Almost the entire galaxy was under their rule and very soon the rest would follow.
So together the Primordial's gathered knowing what was to happen should he and his children fall Chaos made the ultimate sacrifice any Primordial could make. With the help of his last son Aether the Primordial of Light and second in command to his father. With the help of his last sisters they cut open there fathers chest unleashing a power no one had seen before.
Like the pull of a black hole Chaos swallowed Darkness and sealed him into his body, effectively became the first host of Darkness. With their leader gone, infighting broke out between the armies of Darkness, some killed each other off while others retreated as far away as possible for they didn't want to be at the end of the Primordial's rage.
Chaos's brother Order also ran away but unlike the armies he retreated into the darkest and deepest pits of Tartarus in self appointed exile. All he ever wanted was to learn about their father's history but he had chosen the wrong way. Before he sealed the doors of his prison he promised to himself that one day he would return and right the wrongs he had made.
That all happened 10,000 years ago and now Chaos had weakened considerably. Even though he was the host of Darkness, it had fought him for control so that it could finish what it had started long ago. Knowing what would happen once he entered his state of sleep Chaos used some of his remaining power to split Darkness apart.
When the task was finished Aether took the physical embodiment of darkness and sealed him into a planet that had been dead for a long time. The planet was then placed in the center of the galaxy, while the most powerful of his children were placed as the guards of the prison.
The powers of Darkness were however sealed into a small gem the size of a human heart. Once the task had been completed Chaos then went in search for someone that could wield the power without being corrupted by its influence. He had seen a vision of the future and one day Darkness would return to finish what he started and next time he wouldn't be around to help his children.
As a thousand years passed by Chaos feared he would never find someone worthy of wielding this terrible power. Meanwhile the prison was weakening and Darkness was growing stronger, it was only a matter of time till the prison shattered. Chaos knew he didn't have the power to face him again and once he returned his armies would return from wherever they ran to.
While Chaos was floating through space, he felt something pulling himself to the planet Earth and his sleeping daughter Gaea.
He didn't know it but the remains of his father Unknown was using his power to lead his son to the planet because a boy had been born that had the potential to wield the powers without being corrupted by him. Watching from the shadows Unknown watched as his son transformed into an eagle and flew to the city of New York.
As minutes passed and turned into hours Unknown started to get annoyed at how thick his son had become. Despite leading him to the planet his son had no clue where he was going and had flown in circles trying to find the reason he had gone to that particular place. Sighing he used a bit more of his power and Chaos went to the place that he had been waiting for.
Landing on a phone line eagle Chaos looked at the source of where this pull was coming from. It was coming from an apartment room where two babies were sleeping inside. Looking around Chaos felt no trace of any other soul inside. Flying into the open window Chaos transformed into a human and looked at the cribs.
Inside two children were sleeping peacefully, one he could tell was a child of an Olympian but nothing special. Instead the girl interested Chaos, because he could feel that she was the one that had powers that were stronger than the boys. Trying to find out why he suddenly saw that she was a daughter of a titan or more specifically Oceanus.
At first Chaos felt that girl was the one he had came for but before he could bring the gem out Chaos was pulled into a vision that his father had forced on him. Looking around Chaos saw he was standing in a desert of his best guess Earth.
No other planet had a desert for some reason but he didn't care about that. Apparently out of all his children only his daughter Gaea was fascinated by the vastness of deserts while his other children hated them but that didn't matter now.
Instead he was more interested in the person who was standing in the distance. He couldn't see much but from what he could see a man was standing in black battle armor while a black cloak covered his armor and a hood was drawn up covering his face in darkness.
The unknown person was looking at the sky and Chaos looked and saw a huge black dragon fly above before landing on the ground. The male then pulled out two swords and the dragon growled before a huge torrent of fire shot out of its mouth, blackening the sky. Slowly black clouds formed and a large amount of black ooze was beginning to fall from them instead of rain water.
Waiting to see the rest, Chaos was then pushed away from the vision and found he was facing the baby boy. Examining the boy a little better Chaos's eyes widened considerably at the thought going through his head.
Is this boy the one I saw in my vision? Chaos asked.
Suddenly a mental picture of the man he saw, was standing behind the boys crib. Knowing what had to be done Chaos pulled the gem out of his robes and looked at the child as tears formed in his eyes. He was crying because he had finally found the person he was looking for and one day this boy would face Darkness.
I am sorry boy, but you will suffer terribly. I only hope you know that whatever pain you suffer, will only happen because you must be ready to face an ancient evil. Chaos thought.
Extending his arm over the boy he turned his hand over and the gem fell out of his hand and towards the boy. As the gem was about to make contact with the boys blanket it disappeared. Looking at the boy's small body Chaos saw a small but faint glow in the location of the child's heart meaning that the powers were now inside of the boy. Making sure a gate was in place, for the boys body wouldn't be able to handle the power in such a small state.
Turning around to leave Chaos came face to face with annoyed face of his son Aether.
Aether had finally found someone he believed could wield the power of Darkness but when he went to his father's last known location he was annoyed to find out he wasn't there. Instead he found him on the body of his sister Gaea who was currently in a deep state of sleep like the majority of his family.
"Father I believe I have f—" however a hand silenced Aether.
"My son there is no need; I have already found someone who will wield those powers." Chaos then motioned to the boy behind him.
Looking behind his father Aether saw a baby boy sleeping in a crib and a small glow caught his attention. Walking past his father Aether looked at the boy but he couldn't see anything special about him. The girl was the one that interested him though; she had power and potential that had yet to be seen.
"Father, why have you chosen this boy? The girl here is obviously stronger than him."
"Aether, when will you learn? Power means nothing, besides I had a vision that showed me that one day this boy would face Darkness in a battle."
Aether looked at his father in disbelief before looking at the boy in disbelief that a human would one day face Darkness in battle. As he was about to voice his disbelief Aether was pulled into a vision of his own.
In the distance two people were standing next to one another. One was male and the other was female but Aether felt like he saw them from somewhere. Could these two be the very same babies that I now see? The vision then ended prematurely and Aether saw his father was beginning to fade again. Not wanting to waste time Aether walked over to the girl and placed a hand onto her small head.
His hand glowed slightly before he pulled away. Looking at the girl Chaos saw the symbol of Aether appear over her head. Turning to face his son he wanted to ask what his son was doing but his time was finally up. With a grin Chaos faded and entered another sleep leaving his son in the room alone.
What Chaos didn't know was that Aether blessed the girl because he felt that one day the two of them would battle one another. Wanting to make the battle an even fight he had blessed the girl because he felt that one day she would also help in the coming battle. Turning around Aether felt a sadness in his heart since his father was gone again. Now only he and a few of his brothers and sisters remained.
'Father, I swear on your name that when Darkness comes to this planet. I will return to aid our champions who will hopefully end what we had started.' With that Aether vanished leaving no trace of him or his father ever being there.
Once he left, a golden thread was made that connected the two children together. Unknown looked at the two children who he had connected, it might be cruel but they would be drawn to one another no matter how far they ran. Leaving the room the babies woke up and looked at one another.
Neither could think yet but they were interested in the other's eyes. However the two then fell asleep right as their mothers entered the room to check on their children.
12 Years Later
The two children were now 12 years old and leaning against one another on a bus that was heading towards a museum for a field trip. The boys name was Percy Jackson and the girl was Larissa Knifong. Ever since they've been toddlers the two of them have been together but Larissa knew more than Percy did about there heritage.
While Percy's name was common in some places Larissa's wasn't, instead she was given the name because in Greek in meant Citadel.
While Percy grew up oblivious of his heritage, Larissa's mom taught her about everything she knew since she didn't want her daughter to grow up not knowing anything. Sally disagreed of course because she believed their children shouldn't grow up knowing about their heritage yet but Larissa's mom didn't care what Sally thought, she wanted her daughter ready and nothing would stop her.
As Larissa grew up she realized how much of her life she began to hate. Her father abandoned her and her mother and then there was camp somewhere that would one day take her away from her mother. The one good thing about her life was that she had Percy with her, from what her mom said Percy was the child of Poseidon and that meant that one day he would be going to camp as well.
The one thing she hated most about her life the most was that she grew up in the rich part of society. She was the heir to a multi-million dollar company while Percy grew up in poverty, she had the life enjoying anything she could ever want. While most children would feel privileged she didn't since all the money in the world only made her sadder. Since her mother was a rich business woman she was forced to go to those formal dinners to meet other large business owners and there children.
While she suffered, Percy was having the time of his life. Despite having almost no money what so ever Percy was truly happy as long as he was with his mother or friends.
Larissa really envied Percy a little since he could act like an idiot whenever he wanted while she had to be the perfect daughter. One day though she promised herself she would find out the source of his happiness, and hopefully he would share his with her.
Waking up Larissa saw Percy's second best friend Grover get hit with pieces of peanut butter by the girl Nancy. As she watched Grover try to dodge the shots she looked at Percy and heard him mutter something about ducks and the cow goes quack.
Just hearing Percy say these random things were enough for Larissa to crack a smile. She rarely smiled as it was but when she was with Percy she felt she could just be herself. Looking at Percy she felt the urge to hug him for some reason but she didn't think about it much instead she just went to petting his head while Grover looked at her begging for help.
For the next half an hour Larissa sat back in the bus seat while Percy continued to sleep on her lap. He was drooling however and it was beginning to ruin her favorite pair of black and gold jeans. Even though she had money she rarely used any of it since she wanted to be a normal girl. The problem was her entire wardrobe consisted of black and gold outfits. While most people had one favorite color she had two and it was more of an obsession than anything else.
Her hair was black and today was cascading down her back. Most of the time she kept her hair up but today something was telling her that she should keep her hair down. She didn't mind but the reason her hair was always up was that people were attracted to her more than usual when her hair was down.
As the bus stopped next to the museum Larissa looked at Percy and saw he got up rubbing his eyes, before yawning. "Larissa, how are you this fine morning?" she sighed as she mentally slapped her face at Percy's stupidity, even though Percy appeared to be an idiot she really believed he was only acting like this because he didn't want things to get boring and or dull.
"Percy you idiot," she didn't mean it though. "It's currently the afternoon and we are at the museum so come on." Percy looked at Larissa before a grin appeared on his face. She paled since she knew that when Percy grinned it usually meant trouble. As Mrs. Dodd's stepped off the bus she tripped and fell face first on the pavement.
"Percy what did you do?"
"I didn't do anything whatsoever? Why do you always look at me when something happens to Mrs. Dodd's." Percy asked innocently while Larissa gave him a look that said that he wasn't fooling her in anyway. Without a second to move Percy felt Larissa push him against the window while everyone started getting off.
Leaning closely to his ear she whispered. "Percy, you know I hate it when you lie. Besides since you just pulled that it means you might be expelled again. If that happens then I will have to find a way to get expelled as well so that I can transfer to whatever new school you go to." Percy looked at Larissa with sadness in his eyes. Ever since well forever he felt he has been holding her back and that the best for her was to leave him behind.
"Larissa, you don't have to follow me everywhere you know. I am just holding y—" he was silenced before he could say anything. Looking at Larissa he saw she had an angry expression on her face and the hand pinning him to the window had tightened considerably.
"Percy don't you ever say you're holding me back. I may be able to go farther without you but I refuse to leave you behind no matter what you say." Even though her voice was angry and annoyed her eyes showed genuine sadness at the prospect of leaving Percy behind. If she left him she knew that he would fall apart faster than an open bag of apples.
'Another reason I don't want to lose you is that my life would be boring without you.' She thought even though it was a little obnoxious that she wanted to keep Percy for that reason alone. The other was that she felt they were destined to be together but she didn't know why and if she talked to Percy about it he would become embarrassed.
"I'm sorry Larissa but it is true." Percy then pulled her hand away and walked down the aisle his head slumped while he stepped off the bus and followed the other students. Larissa followed shortly after staying near Percy but every time she tried to start a conversation with him but he would shy off.
Once the class stopped in front of one of one the exhibits Larissa took her chance and grabbed Percy and threw him against one of the stone columns. Wanting to run away as quickly as possible he tried to make a run for it but before he could even move two steps he was slammed into the column again.
"Percy, why are you suddenly avoiding me? Did I do something wrong that made you angry?" Larissa asked slightly louder than she had originally wanted. Mr. Brunner was about to say something to the two of them but when he looked in the direction of Larissa and Percy he decided not to since it looked like Percy was in trouble. Turning back to his class he continued the discussion about the Olympians and the Titans.
Percy tried to avoid her eyes but she grabbed the sides of his face and turned his head so that he was facing her. When he looked her in the eyes he saw that she was truly sad. "Larissa, you didn't do anything wrong, I am the one at fault. Ever since we've known each other I have held you back but if I push you away you may go somewhere where you may succeed. So please just leave me behind it's for the best."
"God damn it Percy why are thinking about this so suddenly? You don't seem to get it do you, I don't want to leave you behind since were friends. Wherever you go I am going to follow wherever you go rather you like it or not." Percy wanted to argue but he saw that her rant was far from over.
"Now before I let you go I want you to promise me something. If you don't promise me these things then I guess we're going to be stuck here," Percy looked shocked at her declaration. "First you must promise me that you will never ever leave me. Secondly I want you to promise that you will never start thinking like this ever and I mean it ever again!" her face was then right in front of Percy's and he could smell her hair and it smelt like cinnamon and honestly he thought it was an intoxicating smell.
"I promise that I will never do those things that I can't remember." Percy sighed in defeat; however he promised himself that one day he would find a way to separate himself from her so that she could reach her full potential. Larissa looked him in the eyes and he could have sword that her dark blue eyes were staring into his soul.
"Good now we can return to our class." Larissa said finally with a smile, grabbing Percy by the arm she dragged him out of the shadow of the column and rejoined the class. Even though some of the things she was learning were new she knew most of the things and despite being the daughter of the eldest titan she hated them all.
As the day passed by and it was time for lunch Percy went to go eat with Grover, while Larissa went to look at the picture of the titans. A part of her hated her father for leaving her but she was at least grateful that Percy had entered her life. One thing that bothered her the most though was that she remembered feeling a powerful but kind being standing over her.
It couldn't have been her father since her mother told her that he had left before she was born but then who could have visited her as a toddler. The only person that knew about it was Percy but that was because he had felt something like that as well. Except every time he thought of it he felt a burning pain in his chest.
"Larissa, you are interested in the titans aren't you?" Mr. Brunner asked shocking Larissa a little who didn't even know he had walked up behind her. Turning around Larissa saw Brunner was sitting there twirling a pen in his fingers.
"I wouldn't say I am interested in them. I instead hate them with a passion." She replied as she walked over to a column and leaned against it. Looking at her finger nails she released a small amount of her power and the picture of the titans was covered with a layer of ice. Mr. Brunner looked at her display of power and was amazed at how powerful she was.
"I must warn you my dear but it isn't wise to hold anger towards the titans, especially the eldest of titans." Brunner didn't know yet but he was trying to guess who Larissa's godly parent was. Even though Poseidon had the power to control ice his children had no where near the ability that she just showed.
"Give me a reason… Chiron why I shouldn't hate the titans," Chiron was to say the least surprised he had been revealed so quickly. "Yes Chiron I know who you are my mom told me about you. She went to your camp for a year before leaving on her own accord when you said it wasn't for the best. Maybe the name Sarah Knifong rings a bell?" Chiron looked at Larissa surprised she was the daughter of one demi-god he thought had died long ago when she vanished.
"Anyways the reason I know your identity is of no concern to me. Do you know that I am actually a daughter of a titan? Or rather I am the daughter of Oceanus." Chiron's eyes widened in shock, even though he had seen a lot in his long life never had he ran into a demi-titan well ever in his life. Most of the titans were currently under bars while the few that weren't were in hiding.
"Larissa, may I ask are there more of you? Or are you the only one that exists so far?" Chiron asked imagining a camp like Camp Half-Blood or Camp Jupiter that was instead populated by demi-titans.
Larissa examined her nails a little making sure they were perfect before replying. "From what I know I am probably the only one in existence. If there are others they have either stayed hidden or have died." She might sound cold hearted but she didn't really care if there were other demi-titans since the only thing that interested her was when Percy was going to be taken to the camp.
"If it isn't too much to ask I would like to ask how you survived as long as you have. Since you are the daughter of a titan your scent must be really strong and with it monsters must have come to attack you more than once."
"Chiron your questions are beginning to bore me." Larissa then pointed a finger a Chiron's legs and instantly they were covered in ice. "I am done playing games Chiron I want to know when Percy is going to be forced to go to that place you call a camp." Chiron looked at his legs and he was slightly scared at the prospect of angering her when she could freeze him this quickly. Ignoring the cold in his nether regions he looked at Larissa and saw she hadn't moved from her spot.
"Percy, will be coming to camp very soon. No matter how much his mother doesn't want him to he must go or else he will put everyone he knows in danger."
Hearing that Percy would put his family in danger angered Larissa slightly but before she could act she stopped midway and agreed that Percy's powers were growing stronger and it was only a matter of time till he started to attract monsters.
"Thank you for answering my questions Chiron." Larissa than walked away and with a snap of her fingers the ice holding Chiron in place shattered. Chiron looked at her as her hair swayed back and forth and fear was the dominant emotion in his eyes.
'If she is that powerful now I wonder what she will become in a few years time.' Chiron thought before wheeling out and heading towards the class, looking around Chiron noticed that Percy and Mrs. Dodd's was missing.
While Larissa was walking towards one of the other exhibits she saw that Percy was being led somewhere. Looking at the direction they came from she saw that Nancy and her clothes were drenched and her friends were surrounding her placing coats on her. Mentally slapping her head at Percy's stupidity she decided to follow him to make sure he didn't get into any trouble. As she followed them though she felt something coming off of Percy and Mrs. Dodd's that seemed almost sinister.
Looking around she realized they were in the Greek and Roman section, not wanting to get caught red handed she hid behind a column that just happened to be the one she pinned Percy up against earlier.
"You've been giving us problems honey," Ms. Dodd's said.
"First off I didn't do anything, Nancy started it and I just defended myself. I have no clue how she got soaked with water." Percy argued wanting to get this over with. Even though he was a happy individual most of the time he hated it when he was blamed for everything that had gone wrong.
"Did you really think you could get away with it? It was only a matter of time until we found you." She then tugged on the cuffs of the leather jacket. Slowly she was beginning her transformation into her fury form but she didn't want to reveal herself quickly because she didn't want anyone to walk in on the two of them.
"How can I get away with anything…? I can't even steal a piece of pizza from my step dads table without being caught." Thunder shook the building and Larissa looked up towards the roof with only one thought going through her head.
'What is happening and who or rather what is Ms. Dodd's?' Larissa looked at Percy and saw nothing different from a normal human. He may have been a son of Poseidon but that didn't matter instead there teacher was worrying her because something was not right.
"We are not fools, Percy Jackson it was only a matter of time before we found you out."
"Ms. Dodd's you are starting to worry me." Percy replied as he looked behind her and saw wings starting to sprout out of her back.
"Your time is up." she hissed and her transform happened almost instantly. Her eyes were burning like the coals of a barbecue, while her fingers stretched turning into talons. The leather jacket vanished and in its place were large leathery wings. Before Percy could move Ms. Dodd's shot towards him her talons out and ready to rip him to shreds.
Percy tried to move but he was just too scared, his legs were shaking and he had no clue what was going on. 'This has got to be some bad dream. Yah that's it this is just a dream and when I close my eyes I'll wake up again.' He thought while closing his eyes. As Ms. Dodd's talons were about to connect with Percy's shoulders Larissa ran out of her cover and tackled him to the ground.
Opening his eyes Percy looked around and saw that the weird monster or demon thing was still in front of him flapping her wings as she hovered over the ground a little. Looking at who had tackled him he saw Larissa lying on the ground with some deep cuts in her back.
"Larissa!" he shouted as he ran to her make sure she was okay. Picking her up he saw that she was unconscious and that her body must have entered shock. As Percy was about to cry a burning pain ignited in his heart. Falling face first into the pavement Percy screamed a cry of pain while Ms. Dodd's grinned and charged Percy again.
Like before her talons were about to land on Percy but instead of reaching him she slammed face first into some type of barrier that had magically appeared. Looking at the boy she saw the boy vanished and in a second he reappeared and grabbed her by her throat. Struggling to breathe Alecto tried to get the boy to let her go but his grip just tightened.
What surprised her mostly was that Percy's eyes were no longer sea green instead they were black and they were filled with hatred. Also he was using strength that he shouldn't even have for a 12 year old. Gripping his hand Alecto then felt a burning pain in her gut, looking down she saw that Percy had forced a hand into her gut and it had ripped all the way through her.
"What are you?" Alecto demanded before becoming a pile of dust. Percy's arms then dropped to his sides and he fell forward slamming into the ground. Meanwhile behind a column Grover and Chiron were watching the entire thing.
"Chiron did you just see that? Percy not only showed some type of ridiculous power but he destroyed the fury with his bare hands?" Grover stuttered as he looked at his best friend who was lying on the ground next to Larissa. He didn't say it but he was scared of his friend since one second he was screaming and the next he vanished and killed the Fury Alecto.
"Grover we have no time to think about what we have just seen instead the two of them need medical treatment." Chiron then wheeled over to the two and first started with Percy. Mentally and physically he was alright the only thing was that he was currently unconscious and sleeping like a baby. His pulse though was beating faster than normal humans were capable of.
As Grover looked at Larissa he was surprised to see her back healing itself. Once her injuries were healed her clothes also fixed themselves suddenly and her eyes opened. Looking up she saw Grover and Chiron standing above her. Turning her head she saw Percy lying on the ground right next to her and saw he was unconscious. Remembering what had happened she shot up head butting Grover and looked around for the monster that had attacked Percy.
"Larissa the fury is gone Percy managed to destroy it." Chiron said slowly while Larissa calmed down a little. She tried to stand up but her legs gave out and she landed on top of Percy's body. Expecting him to wake up she saw that he was still sleeping like nothing happened. '
What am I not heavy enough to wake you up?' she thought as she pulled herself off of him.
Sitting down next to Percy she ruffled his hair a little as she looked up at Chiron and Grover who was rubbing his head because of the sudden hit head butt he received.
"Chiron did you say that Percy killed Alecto?" looking for confirmation he nodded and she looked down at Percy. "How did he kill her he has no weapons?"
"Honestly I don't know how he killed her but he did it with his bare hands. Once who were knocked out he screamed in pain and when Alecto was about to attack him he vanished and grabbed her by her throat. She struggled to break free from his grip but he wouldn't let go and he punched his hand into her gut and out the other end."
Hearing that Percy had killed Alecto in such a gruesome way she looked at his hands and saw no blood on them. However one thing was going through her head and it was how he had suddenly changed so quickly. Sighing deeply she looked at Chiron and knew she had to say these words no matter how much she hated them.
"Thank you for saving me and Percy even if you didn't do anything I am grateful for you healing me." Grover looked at her a little a bead of sweat was beginning to fall down his head. A part of him wanted to say he didn't do anything but at the same time he was glad that she hadn't hit him like she usually did.
"Larissa we have a favor of you. For now we need you to lie to Percy thinking that this never happened and that the day went by like normal." Chiron said while messing with the pen in his fingers. Originally he was going to toss the pen to Percy but when Percy screamed and vanished he forgot all about it.
Larissa looked like she wanted to argue but at the last second she thought against it. One reason she didn't was that she didn't have the strength to argue and second was that she had no obligation to follow the promise. Promising to talk to Percy later about what happened she looked at Grover and fell backwards.
"I promise I won't tell Percy about anything that happened today." Saying those words were a mouthful since she hated to lie to Percy. Even though they were both really close it pained her more than when she lied to others like her mom or Sally.
Meanwhile in Percy's heart the dark powers Chaos had placed inside him were beginning to manifest inside. Even though Percy was young his body currently was more than capable of controlling the powers albeit to small degree. But the gate Chaos had made for the power stopped it from spreading through his unconscious body so that when he began to use it frequently it would be easy and unlike its original host.
The Primordial Aether had also seen what had happened to Percy. Even though he still didn't understand why his father gave the boy such powers he was surprised to see them manifest that quickly. Larissa surprised him the most, she had used his powers unconsciously and healed herself despite not knowing it. Peering into the souls of both children he saw that the two powers were beginning to spread and that surprisingly both were harmonizing with one another.
