Summary

Life has finally calmed down for Percy Jackson. After countless wars and quests for the gods the demigod son of Poseidon was ready for some well earned peace. But a demigods life isn't meant for peace. In a not so stunning turn of events Percy's services are once more required from Olympus but in a way he never imagined. Across the ocean a new story and a certain devil await him.

Author Preface

Please read before beginning this story. I will address questions and concerns in a final author's note when I have completed the story but this will be the main author's note until then.

Hello everyone and welcome to my story of Percy Jackson and High School DxD. I have to say that when I first joined Fanfiction a little more than a year ago I didn't actually think I would publish a story, much less one like this. However, like all things in life, a small idea just wouldn't stay contained in my brain and suddenly the next thing I know I'm actually writing this down and getting ready to publish it here. A bit nerve-wracking if I'm honest but I decided that I wanted to share my love for both Percy Jackson and High School DxD with you all.

I'd like to take a moment to outline some things that I expect and I think you will expect from me and this story. First, yes this is my first story on here and there will be mistakes. I've honestly tried to self-review the Hades out this and I've made numerous changes to the wording. However, like all things, I can't pick up on every mistake and there may be (read will be) some spelling or grammar mistakes at some point. They happen. Professional writers and publishers don't pick up on every mistake and they even sometimes get published. If they are truly egregious then PM to let me know and I'll be happy to change them. However, if it doesn't ruin the flow of the story or you don't pick up on it initially I ask that you make a brief comment about it in a review and if I agree with you I'll gladly go and change it when I have a moment. I don't plan on engaging a beta at this time as if I feel that my chapter really needs another pair of eyes I like to go to my sister, who is a journalist and some actually qualified to review my work. That may change as time passes but currently that's where I stand.

Following off of that is my second point: when to expect my updates. I will be frank here and say that I don't have a true set for updates. I have written a couple of chapters of this already and I'd like to stay ahead if possible so as to keep things move forward. That said my goal is for a chapter to be released once every two or three weeks on either Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. It's not a perfect system but I find that if I set a deadline for myself then I'm more inclined to get the chapters written and posted. However, I do have an actual life where I work and my family/friends so I will not swear on the Styx to anything. You'll have to just assume it's one of those unspoken agreements that I'll try to abide by and hope I don't pull an Antaeus/Luke and break my agreement afterwards.

Next off is the length of chapters. I prefer stories that have some real depth to them, where the author digs into the characters and the reader immerses himself/herself in the plot. Because of that I like stories that really provide detailed descriptions and worldbuilding, much like a professional writer would do. This essentially means that if you are publishing chapters that have less than 2,000 words you aren't necessarily my cup of tea. There are of course some stories on here that are still good with lower chapter word counts and I've like them when I've found them. But in my experience, they are few and far between and as such I find myself looking and reading stories that around over 4,000 words in chapter length. With that in mind I will attempt to maintain the same discipline in my story. All of my chapter lengths right now are over 5,000 words with some extending much more than that. It's my idea that you should try to publish chapters that give good detail and advance the story. As long as you aren't just saying "first this happened, then this happened, then this after that, etc…" then I would call that a successful chapter regardless of length. I aim to do that here and hope you agree with my assessment.

Fourthly is related to allusions of other authors and works. This authors note is intended to be a blank statement that addresses all those concerns. I am not intending any infringement on my owner or publishers work in regards to said allusion. All rights and property are owned by the respective parties and my brief connection to it is merely to provide a harmless fun atmosphere for my story.

Next is in regard to the rating. As you may have noticed already this story will be receiving a rating of M as it will deal with Mature content. There will be swearing and references, both implicitly implied and explicitly stated, to sex. I would hope most people are responsible enough to acknowledge this fact and maintain the proper discourse. Before anyone even asks no I don't plan on doing Lemons at this time. As the story grows and evolves I'm not ruling it out but in my experience, some of the better stories (on here in fanfiction and in real life) are written with the actual sexual acts implied. It leaves the storytelling to the author while giving the reader the freedom to imagine what happened exactly as they wanted. A much more powerful method of telling a story in my opinion.

Now we come to my final point: what I expect from you the reader. The primary purpose of writing this story is to provide some entertainment and enjoyment for everyone. As long as you are happy with the story and pleased with my writing that's what I mainly care about. This does not mean that I will change the story because you don't like the plot or the pairing I intend or how I portrayed a particular character. You're welcome to criticize in a review but I have this story mainly mapped out the way I want it and no amount of complaining or whining is going to change my mind. I will take serious construction criticisms seriously as I'd never be able to grow as a writer without that but complaining that the story sounds better with character A better paired with character B isn't going to get anything changed.

As for reviews, everyone is welcomed and encouraged to review. However, as I make a note of in my account I understand that reviewing isn't always possible with our busy lives and there won't be any hard feelings if you don't review. The only thing I ask when you review is that you give me real depth to your review. I'm not saying writing a novella about why this chapter was the greatest but saying that this was a good chapter because you enjoyed X, Y, or Z gives me something that I can understand. Or if you didn't like a chapter please tell me why you didn't enjoy it. Not every chapter is enjoyable as I'm sure we would all like action and good storytelling but explaining to me that the chapter wasn't as good because it didn't advance the plot or you didn't like how character C and D interacted is a much better review than just saying "your story sux n00b go jump off a bridge". If you choose to troll and flame then you are welcome to it but just know that I don't really care about those kinds of reviews and if I deem then excess I will remove the review so as not to subject the other reviewers to that kind of behavior.

With this all said I think we are ready to jump into the story. I want to take a brief moment to thank everyone who took the time to actually read this and I want to thank you again in advance for taking the time to read my story. I've spent quite some time trying to plan it out and I'm proud of what I have so far. It's my opinion that you should never publish/submit your work if you can't say you are truly 100% proud of it and I can guarantee you all that will be the case with this. I hope you all can remain patient with me as we journey through this together and I look forward to your reviews. With that said, welcome once more to the story of a demigod who is changing everything around him. Welcome to…
