Son of Chaos

Chapter 2: Saved by the night

"Then we kill you,"

Percy's eyes widened as she pulled the arrow and let go of the bow string. The arrow was about to hit him directly in the head when instead, it hit a wall of shadows. Behind the shadows was a woman in a void black dress, and had pitch black eyes with a hand that was doing a lift motion.

The rest of the hunters excluding Artemis all had their bows at the woman instead of Percy, but they couldn't release the bowstring. Tendrils of shadows were locking the hands so that they were unable to release the string.

Artemis then realized who it was and bowed deeply. "Lady Nyx, I apologize. I did not know it was you," she said. Her hunters followed and said, "Lady Nyx."

Nyx looked at them with approval that lasted only for so long. "I accept, and I would like to take young Percy, for I am quite interested in him. He is strong and has been through many hardships over the month, I would like to take him as my own and train him to his full potential," Nyx said.

"I understand, but my father Lord Zeus has ordered me to bring him to Olympus for he may be a threat to us, young or not," Artemis said. Nyx looked at her and said, "Well then tell him that I took him, he is bound to think that I will kill him myself. I will not let this boy be taken by either of you; a power paranoid king or a group of feminist."

While the two conversed, Percy was losing his mind. He was about to get killed only to be saved, then get told that a primordial goddess wants to take him. He thought about running, but he would be out matched by the two goddesses, not to mention one was an Olympian, and the other was an original Primordial.

The hunters were glaring daggers at him because they spent the week tracking and searching for one demigod, only to escape in the hands of a primordial who wanted to make him even more powerful. Sure he didn't know the power he possessed, but at near death experiences he seems to unleash small bits of his powers without knowing it was him.

Artemis had finally agreed to leave them and forget about hunting the boy while gesturing the hunters to follow her as she left the area. Nyx turned around and faced the now ten time more fearful Percy.

"Um… E-Excuse me, b-but what do you want to do to m-me?" Percy stuttered while trembling uncontrollably in fear. Nyx noticed that and said softly, "You have nothing to fear child. I only want take you as my own and train you to your potential. I see that you can become very strong, and a great asset for when the world needs a hero to save them."

"But, I'm just a kid, a no good kid who nevew new his pawents," Percy said with a hint of misery in his tone.

"That's where you're wrong Percy. You do have parents. Or should I say parent?" Nyx said "You're a son of Chaos, also my brother. Not to mention that you destroyed a horde of monsters without a weapon."

Percy's eyes widened as he embraced his sister.

Nyx happily hugged him back and said, "How would you like to be my son and train you from now on?"

Percy took a moment before saying, "I would like that"

Shadows encased him in a cocoon and unravelled to show that his hair turned from raven black to darker color that it absorbed the light around it.

Nyx grinned, "Good. Now let's begin."

LINE BREAK (In Olympus)

"Artemis, why is it that you have called a meeting before us?" Zeus asked. Even though he knew that it was probably about the boy he sent her to hunt, he still hand to sound surprised since the council was not informed about this other than Artemis, Apollo, Ares and Athena. (The Quad A's)

"Father, I am called this meeting is to report on the boy that you sent me to hunt a week ago," Artemis said looking at her father slightly disapproved that he sent her to kill a boy who was no older than 6.

"You did what!?" Hera bellowed as well as a few others. She could not believe that he sent Artemis to hunt down a boy without informing the council first. He has been so paranoid that he doesn't even ask the council since they would always either deny or tell him to wait longer to see where their loyalty lies.

"I am sorry dear but this boy is not natural. His strength would seem to surge to levels that may rival that of Apollo's. I did what had to be done to keep us all safe," Zeus said. Before any of them had a chance to speak up, Artemis continued, "We did not kill him, he has been taken by Nyx herself. It would seem that she herself would want to kill him."

Zeus seemed delighted by the news, "Very well, that takes down another potential threat to Olympus. If anyone else has something to say speak up, if not I will dismiss this meeting."

"Yes I believe that we all have something to say, and it would most likely be the same point; why were we not informed of this?" Hera hissed at him while the others muttered their agreements other than the ones who already knew.

"I knew that if I did you will say that we should wait, but we cannot wait. He is a threat that needs to be eliminated before he could get any stronger than he is already. I did it for the safety of Olympus and for the safety of my family"

"Brother, your paranoia will someday be our fall. We are not only losing potential threats, but also potential allies. One that may save us all someday!" said by a furious Poseidon

"ENOUGH! I did it to protect us and that is final! Council Dismissed!" said Zeus before flashing out, leaving sparks around.

Poseidon rolled his eyes, "Drama Queen"
