Chapter One: First Council Meeting

I stared at the grave where Annabeth now lay. I sighed and turned away, entering my cabin for the last time. I took his Minotaur horn and my armor and put them in a backpack. I walked out of the building and out into the courtyard, where several Cyclopes were building cabins. I had asked that all the minor gods and goddesses get cabins and that all Demigods be claimed or I wouldn't be on the Olympian council.

I looked at his new cabin. The front of the cabin had a circular door that was actually a giant clock. The head of his new sacred animal, a giant black wolf, was painted above the clock. The roof was a giant working grand father clock. Waving in the wind over head was a purple flag with a black scythe and a clock behind it. Hundreds of pocket watches and clocks decorated the walls.

Mr. D walked over to me. "Well Perceus, we have been summoned to the council."

"I know," I said, as a strange warmth went down my back. "I just felt the call. Shall we go together?"

"Whatever you want kid." the sunlight bent and we appeared in Olympus. All the gods and goddesses, major and minor, sat in their seats, growing to twenty feet giants.

"First order of business," said Zeus. "I would like to welcome all our new council members. And our newest god, Perceus." I bowed to every one and placed my scythe in a hole put there specifically for it. All the gods welcomed me one at a time. "Is there any new business?" asked Zeus.

"Yes Father, I have one." said Athena. "I would like to drain Typhoon of his powers and spread them among the council by seniority."

"Any counters?"

"Yes. I think we should drain his powers not by seniority, but as one in an equal amount." said Morpheus.

"I agree with Morpheus." I said. All the other minor gods agreed with me, as well as my father and Hades.

"Who else agrees with this?" Zeus asked.

"I agree with Perceus. WE agreed to treat the minor gods as equals, so they should get the same amount of power." said Dionysus.

"I think the punk is right. If it goes by seniority then the natural power balance of this council will tip in the favor of Poseidon, Hades and you father." Ares said.

"Then it's settled. We shall drain Typhoon's power." Zeus said. The giant Titan appeared in the center of the room. It swarmed around their feet. I picked up my scythe as the other gods raised their symbols of power. We all jammed them into the muck and it glowed with a evil purple light. The Titan swirled around and flew into the symbols of power.

I felt a great amount of power flow into me. I felt like I could lift Olympus up with one hand.

"I don't feel any different." said Morpheus.

"Neither do I." Dionysus said. They all turned towards me with expectant eyes.

"What, do I have something on my face?" I said, moving the back of my hand over my face.

"It seems you absorbed all the powers of Typhoon Perceus." said Ares. I put my scythe back in its holder.

"Are you sure? Maybe its just late for you." Ares shook his head.

"Perceus, you just took the most powerful Titan and absorbed him completely. You've upset the natural balance of this council!" yelled Zeus. Arguments broke out all around me. I hated the screaming. I hated all screaming arguments because of Dale and all. So I raised my scythe and slammed it on the marble. Everyone was instantly frozen.

I stood up and ported back to camp. All the campers around me started bowing. "Please don't do that guys." I said. "It makes me feel weird." every one went back to doing what they were doing.

I walked towards the Athena cabin and knocked on the door. The person I came to see opened the door.

"Oh, Lord Perceus, its you. This is quit an honor." Silena said. I smiled at her and gently touched her arm. The sun light bent and Silena and I disappeared.

We reappeared on an island in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. I sat on a marble bench and she jumped on my lap. "I missed you Percy."

"I missed you too." we started to kiss but I fell backwards. We started to laugh as soon as I hit the ground. I kissed her again. She kissed me back quickly. Being the new 'Lord of Time' and all, you would think I would have a better grasp on lengths of time. But I can't remember how long we stayed like that. Before I knew it, our clothes were lying on the ground around us and we were breathing heavily.

"That was AMAZING!" she yelled. I laughed and materialized my clothes.

"As much as I would love to go another round, I left the Olympian Council frozen in time for two and a half hours now. I better get back."

"Do you have too go back?"

"I don't want to but I have no choice." I kissed her one last time and went back to Olympus.

I put my scythe back in its holder and unfroze time. I listened to all of them argue for the next few hours, thinking only about Silena and her beautiful blue eyes.
