Hey folks G.T. here with the second update this week, and the third one this month. Hey I think that's by best time in the past few years. Someone give the gold guy some love here. Ok enough crazy jokes I can see a lot of people like my very first Percy Jackson fic, and from the first poll I posted about which goddess he should be paired with…I'll be honest even though I'm a PercyXArtemis fan; I don't want her to win because there are already soooo many fics with that pairing, and most of the good ones really need to be updated. Also I was hoping for the challenge of pairing Percy with the wife of Zeus, Hades, or his own father. Heck even Gaea would be a welcomed surprise, or even Hestia or Aphrodite, or even Athena. So please my loyal fans I'm begging vote for someone other than Artemis because there are so many other goddess pairings to be used. If anyone promises to do that I'll remove the poll asking if I should pair Percy with two goddesses, and don't even suggest one as Percy's patron someone already pitched that idea and it's technically rejected before thought because since Ouranos is helping his great grandson he is Percy's patron. Seriously though, aside from adding another goddess the only way to have a different goddess is for you guys to vote for one other than Artemis. Now I know she's a popular goddess since she's a natural ice queen people love to thaw because she's a virgin goddess who swore off men, but if I recall Hestia and Athena are in the same boat. Also last I checked there are hardly any good fics of PercyXHestia especially multi-chapter ones. Besides another reason I'd rather go with a different goddess than Artemis is because this is a more unique idea, and I'd rather not put this new plan with the over used Chaos plots. Though I admit I was surprised when I noticed someone voted for Gaea, and I think it would be easy to set those two together, same with the other goddesses (way too easy with Aphrodite though considering her "husband" and "boyfriend" Percy wouldn't need Apollo's blessing to attract her), but seriously it would take a ton of time and a lot of effort for Percy to get together with the Goddess of the Hunt. Also I would prefer some of the really good ones with Chaos to be updated, and the one where Percy becomes King of the Titans. Since those are some of the best Pertemis fics.
Anyway I don't own Percy Jackson and the Olympians if I did there would be a series of games right out of the book and not from that sucky Lightning Thief movie.

The Soldier of the Sky Strikes in the Rain
(Hong Kong, China-700 years after Percy "disappeared")
A man in a gold silk suit was running through the abandoned streets of Hong Kong fleeing from the figure that stalked him in this downpour. He had heard stories of a being who hunts down those who have committed many atrocities across the globe during a rain worse almost as bad as a flood. He didn't believe those who heard the rumors of this "thing" and just committing worse and worse crimes that even the Yakuza wouldn't even think of doing. He had been doing this for the past few months, and decided to test this "legend" by walking out in this rain to see if there really was a "person" who would be able to kill in such weather. The bastard pushed his luck, and this time fate decided to finally deal him a bad hand because he was on the run for his life looking for someone to protect him.
(Flashback-a few minutes ago)
Chen Song a local crime boss was listening to a boss from a rival gang as he told the story of the "Crime Killer" as most criminals have been calling "it."
"Ok Chen the story starts like hundreds of years ago, 700 years ago to be exact, of something or someone that targets guys who commit extreme crimes worse than drug peddling. Guys like us. Anyway this happened to one of my ancestors, but the reason why was because he was selling drugs so addictive and deadly they would kill a really strong guy in weeks. He was also involved with kidnapping women from seven to thirty-four years old and training 'em to be slaves. Especially the young ones since they were still virgins. He also committed extortion to anyone he could and would get money from or else an entire neighborhood would go up in smoke. Truly my ancestor was the scum of the earth, but his glorious life of crime was cut short. All because he walked into the downpour of death. He was walking along in the rain minding his own business when he heard footsteps behind him, and as soon as he turned around he saw a human shape walking towards him with a dagger. As soon as he saw that guy my ancestor ran for his life thinking he could easily loose the guy in the downpour, but with each turn he nearly walked right into that assassin. After hours of running in the rain he slipped in the rain and ran right into a dead end emphasis on dead because when he turned around the assassin ended my ancestor. Not only that, but he's been sighted countless times since then by every crime boss, criminal, drug dealer, slave owner, and too-bit-hood worldwide. They think it's a different guy each time, but has all the movements of the one who took down my best ancestor. And just like him they too met their end by the exact same dagger. Now some think it's a demon, others a family of this guy, hell some even think it's an earthbound ghost, but many guys including me think he's a guy who was wronged, and is now cursed to forever hunt down guys like us to keep people from being like him. This is why we have to fear the rain because it don't wash away the blood of those we get no it washes away our own." Chen's enemy said.
After that Chen saw to prove this assailant a fake, so he did everything his enemy's ancestor did, and surpassed him. It kept on for weeks, months even, and finally it happened. The legendary rain began and he walked out into it…..only for the story to be proven true.
(Flashback end)
Chen was now rushing through the open streets learning from the many stories that this assassin manages to easily corner his prey in alleys and other secluded areas. He was stopped and staring right at…
"A church why would I be here? Unless this guy was leading me here while chasing me!" Chen thought and realized with absolute fright.
"How ironic don't you think?" A voice said from within the rain.
"W-what do you mean by ironic?" Chen asked scared for his life.
"I mean that it's appropriate for the worst scum of the earth to wind up dying in front of a place of peace." The male voice said as a figure stepped into view.
"P-please whoever…whatever you are please spare me. I'll give you anything to spare me." Chen begged like a cowardly worm.
After that Chen's soon-to-be executioner walked toward the man and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"What I want more than anything even my own life…I can never have" With that the man sliced Chen's head off before he could blink.
After that the man turned from Chen's corpse.
"Oh and even though you're dead and can't hear I'm not an assassin like every crook thinks." The man spoke beginning his speech.
"I'm a man who was thought of as a hero, but lost everything and was betrayed by my lover and a man I thought of as my brother. Left with nothing I was found by a long forgotten God, and given a chance at a new life. The meaning of my life is to serve him and fight for him. Funny those stories about me the part about me being an unfortunate soul who was wronged was dead on. Though I don't do this because I want to, I do this because I need to. My name is Mist and I…" The man thought to himself, but as he did a flash of lightning revealed his dark sea-green eyes.
"I am a Soldier of the Sky." He disappeared within the rain as he finished this thought.
Ok I know this is shorter than the last chapter, but I just had to do this no matter the cost. However I will admit to one thing and one thing only…those who write a lot of the Chaos related fics over use the whole theme of introducing who Percy becomes in the first chapter. I wanted to get the incident first, and then who he becomes. Also if anyone wonders about why I'm having Percy go by "Mist" it's because the Soldiers of the Sky will have to have names relating to the sky or the weather relating to it. Mist falls into both because they occur after a heavy rain, and they are clouds that form close to the ground.
P.s. The next chapter I post in this fic will basically be the campers, and how they had to deal with losing Percy. Also Annabeth and Nico will be tormented by all of Ares Cabin (because those idiots caused the one guy who beat their dad and lived to disappear, but instead of wanting revenge on Percy they'll respect him for all his accomplishments. However, their respect will come from Ares and Mars, and all the Mars kids will already respect Percy since he saved Camp Jupiter right after arriving.) Also I'll probably give Clarisse a sisterly role to Percy to go along with Frank who is kind of a relative of Percy's due to both being relatives of Poseidon/Neptune. I do this because I want to make the Ares kids somewhat honorable, and I tell you all this so you don't cry to me in messages and reviews flaming the plan.
Anyway I hope you'll all enjoy how the story will progress…G.T. out.
