Chapter 2: Getting rid of spirits and rambling.
Harry snapped back to attention and stretched out his abilities. He could tell where they were coming from but wanted to see what the demigods would do first before he interfered.
Once the choppy haired girl finished speaking then there was a moment of silence before Nico's Sister Hazel spoke up. " Piper's right. I can sense them."
"How can you be sure?" The blonde girl asked.
"Because I've met eidolons in the Underworld before Annabeth."
Harry watched as Hazel fiddled with her utensil but turned when the buff Asian boy spoke.
"So you think they're on the ship?" He asked as he ran his hands through his buzz cut hair.
"I think they're more than just on the ship." The choppy haired girl known as Piper said. I think that they might be dwelling, inhabiting some of us."
Harry watched as the blonde Superman clenched his fist in anger. And the worried looks on the others faces.
"I think I can do this. Everyone just listen." Piper said.
Harry felt as the magic of the charm speak washed over him but not holding. He stood there watching. Listening. Waiting.
Silence overtook the room as the minutes slowly tickt. Eventually three of the boys raise their hand to comply with the suggestion from Piper. The blonde Superman, the boy who scarily enough looked like he could maybe be a sibling of Harry's, black hair, green eyes all though the other boys were more sea green and Harry's were Emerald Greene. And a latino elvish looking boy.
"Are there more of you on the ship?" Piper asked. Harry knew there wasn't.
"No." The three possessed boys said. "We will live."
Harry clenched his teeth at the audacity of these parasites spirits. As soon as an opportunity presented...
"You, three, will listen." Piper said with authority it made all three spirits and Harry focus in on her again.
"You will leave those bodies at once."
"We, must, live." The parasites said. The Asian boy flinched and reached for his bow and arrow. " Mars Almighty that's creepy." He said.
The Latino boy turn to him. "We, do, not, listen, to, you, Son, of, Mars. Your, own, Humanity, realize, on, a, stick." That piqued Harry's interest. He focused on the Son of Mars Life Energy.
Aww! The lad was powerful. Mini strong blood lines through those veins. Harry smiled as he watch the boy clumsily step farther back from the small possessed boy.
Lots of small things happened next. The Son of Mars grabbed a narrow and knocked it to his bow. Piper jump to stop him from releasing. Blondie pulled out his sword. And even Hazel got into The Fray.
"You will listen to Piper." Cute, she was trying to insert her will over the ghost like Nico. Too bad that wasn't her strong suit. Maybe he should step in soon?
"Daughter, of, Pluto. We, are, not, Gems, or, metals, that, you, can, control. You, do, not, have, the, ability, to, control, the, Dead.
Time for him to step in. "She might not have the ability to control you. But I assure you that I do." He now stood in plain sight of the gathered group of demigods.
Piper set there in shock, where had this person come from? Was he someone else that Gia had sent?
The newcomer had messy black hair, pale skin, voluminous green eyes ( for the gods sakes was this guy related to Percy? Or Percy have a doppelganger around?) That seemed to be staring directly into their souls and a gentle smile.
"Who are you?" Annabeth asked. "And how did you get on our ship?"
The Stranger raised his hand and said. "Please wait a moment wise child. We have more immediate concerns at present."
After he said this the three spirits that were hijacking their friends bodies hist, one of them saying.
"Master, of, death."
'Master of death? Weight? What?' Piper thought.
The man smiled and raised his right hand. A glittering black as Knight obsidian Stone rested on his middle finger. I turned when I heard Hazel gas but quickly turned back to the stranger as he spoke.
"You eidolons make my job ten times harder than it currently is. Let's see who I'm dealing with." The stone on his finger started to Glow impulse a vibrant White that ran over our three friends making them freeze. About a minute or two later three agonizing shrieks came from Jason, Percy and Leo. Three clouds of black fog escape and was drawn to linger in front of the emerald eyed man.
In front of our eyes three spirits started to take shape out of the black mist. The first one was a tall but lanky White gentleman and his possibly late forties early fifties. The second one was a very tall and bony looking woman with Pitch Black curly Nest Birds hair in the most horriblest Grimm that any of them had ever seen on a human face. The last one was an elderly man with a Long White Beard, Moon shaped glasses perched on his nose and a pointy hat.
The Raven frowned and spoke. "Lucius Malfoy, Bellatrix Lestrange. and the last person I would think to take orders from a Earth goddess." He blinked. "Really Dumbledore? Really?"
His Stone started to brighten again as he said. " I would love to send you 3 back to the underworld for proper punishment but as it stands right now I think you deserve the total Oblivion. Hope you enjoy purgatory." He said have screamed as the stone post once brightly in the three Spirits were sucked into the ring.
Piper turned from the Stranger when she heard a bang. Turning her head she found that Leo had fallen off the bench and was now sitting up rubbing his head. "What just happened?" He asked.
Annabeth who had ran over to Percy was the one who answered. "The three of you were being possessed by eidolons and this..." she pause. " person, did something to them." Once checking over her boyfriend Annabeth turned to The Stranger.
"Mind telling us who you are? And how you got on the ship?" He smiled at the little demigod before turning to address Percy, Frank and Hazel.
"It's nice to see you three again. I see your quest went well." Annabeth was flabbergasted at being ignored.
"My Lorde." Hazel said getting his attention. "If I may ask, what is the friend of death doing on our vessel?" He gave her a gentle smile.
"I'm actually looking for that brother of yours. Nico was supposed to check in with me the other day, since he's helping me on a death case and of course he hasn't and I'm kind of worried. And Thanatos refuses to give me any information."
The room was silent for several minutes. Harry was starting to think that they have lost their voices. "Wait a minute. What? But how do you know Nico?" Harry turn to his doppelganger.
"Of course I know Nico. I'm the master of death which means I work closely with Thanatos, and since the god of death work so closely with Hades I have a pretty good relationship with him as well. You know I actually met Nico when I went to go check in on Bob at the end of the Titan War. Of course I have known about Nico sense Hades gave the wonderful news that the lovely Maria Di Angelo was having his second child. The first of course being Bianca. Such a good girl Bianca was. And she made a fine Hunter of Artemis, I knew she'd do well there."
The group of demigods was silent in flabbergasted as this being kept going on and on.
"Hmm." Harry looked around the room. "Oh! Whoops, my bad." He chuckled. "When you get to be my age you just tend to ramble."
