Point Of View

" They won't find me, For I am but a blade in the crowd "


Creation, something that is unattainable to the reach of man, something that even the Gods would envy. countless stories have been told throughout thousands and thousands of years of how the universe had came to be, and all of them wrong. I now know that the universe was created in her image, in the image of Lady Chaos, for whenever I look into her eyes I can see the stars shine the brightest. I can see the glory of the planets, I can see the light that engulfs the universe, I can see the smile of Lady Chaos, The very motherly smile that would warm even the coldest of hearts..

I had just awoken from my sleep, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, It had been four hundred and ninety earth years since I have arrived in the Void and to Lady Chaos's words time does move differently within the void, for me it had been over five thousand years, and within those years I had never felt happier in my entire existence. but I would always think back on my time on earth. my father and friends, I always felt guilt when I left them thinking I was dead, but I had to do it, to bring darkness into the light Perseus Jackson had to die.

I stood up to leave my chambers after I had dressed, Today was the day that I would be sent back to earth to destroy the darkness from its source. I looked around me to admire the architecture, to this day I could not help but think that this was the most beautiful sight in the universe, The silver that shined through the pillars, the marbles created as the base of every structure were simply flawless.

I entered Lady Chaos's throne room and knelt before her. She looked spectacular as always, her flawless jet black hair that reached all the way to her waist, Her slender figure that would make any lesser man bow to her beauty, her eyes that showed me the universe.

"Stand my young prince" Lady Chaos said as she motioned me to rise with her hands with such elegance and grace from a single movement.

I stood up and faced her with a fierce expression of determination that was visible on my face, since I knew that the time had come for me to rid the world from darkness, I looked to my side and I saw six figures stand beside me, I was glad that they were there for me, I was glad that I did not have to do this alone, I gave a slight nod to Omega and smiled at him and did the same for the remaining six.

Lady Chaos looked at me with a solemn expression on her face, I and everyone who was standing by my side had immediately understood how dire the situation was If Lady Chaos was serious.

"The war has begun my young prince, and I am afraid that the Gods and their children are slowly losing ground, their death tolls are rising up as we speak, and I am afraid that If you do not depart, all will be lost. But do not fret my young prince, You will not go alone, Your knights shall accompany you and help you with your task, as well as every able member of the Creed will band together for the first time and destroy the darkness from the very shadows they hide from."

My knights just stood by my side, with looks of determination on their faces, Lady Chaos had been so kind and resurrected, my friends to stand by my side, I was proud since they were the best warriors I had seen and throughout the years we have formed a bond that not even death could break. They were my brothers and sisters, they were my family,

I stood there in shock, I had only thought that my knights would accompany me in this task, never in my wildest imagination would I have expected the entire creed to assist me. I looked at Omega, my eyes filled with gratitude that he would come with me, even if it was from the shadows.

"Thank you brother"

"Do not think any of it. You changed the way the Creed works, and the whole universe is thriving from it. and I am not one to stand and let my family die. Do you all agree?! my brothers and sisters?! Will you stand by me and my brother?!" Omega roared,

In an instant, I saw over four dozen figured emerged from the shadows, all wearing robes that were pure white, the symbol of the creed etched on a blood red sash that was tied to their waist.

"We stand by out Prince! Our comrade! Our brother!" Omega asked and the members of the Creed roared as they dissolved along with Omega within the shadows and descended to the earth.

I chuckled a bit at that as well as the other people who were currently with me inside the Lady Chaos's throne room, I looked around to see the faces of my knights and friends, I knew it would be difficult not just for me, but for all of us. We all had a life before Lady Chaos had found us, we all had died and were given a second chance, and now was the time to prove that we deserved this second chance.

I looked at my knights and looked straight in their eyes and saw a fiery determination that they also wanted to prove that they were worthy of being called the Knights of the Universe, Guardians of the innocent and protectors of the pure.

I looked at my second in command, A man who had returned from the darkness to embrace the light, A man who had redeemed himself with his actions and not by his words, A man who I had learned to trust and believed that he made the right decision when he stabbed himself with that cursed blade and saved us all from eternal damnation. A man who had fought a number of battles by my side and would gladly exchange his life for mine. He looked at me straight into my eyes as if begging me to to give him this chance at redemption, and Gods be damned I will give Luke Castellan his shot at it.

Right beside Luke was a woman whose beauty was undeniable, whose bravery can never be questioned, Her loyalty was stronger that mine ever was. She was a protector of the innocent and guardian of justice, She had faced countless battles throughout the centuries and never once had she faltered, even in the face of death she always thrived and smiled, she would never lose herself to the temptations of darkness and thrive in the light, she was none other than Zoe Nightshade a true hero and legend if there ever was one, she died protecting the world where it should have been me in her place, a single mistake on my part cost me her life, and I swear on the river Styx that I will not make a mistake like that ever happen again. I swear that this time around that she will come out of this war alive.

Behind Zoe were two warriors bred within the forges of fire and love, two of the purest souls that I could ever imagine, and I would not replace either of them with anyone, Two of the bravest people I know, and their love and compassion can never be questioned. hardened through battle, These two warriors have proven time and time again that their love would always prevail, even in their death nothing could keep them apart. One of them I considered a role model in life and in death the other a friend who had redeemed herself with her life, Charles Beckendorf and Selena Beauregard, After this battle is won and the war ended, I swear that the both of you shall live the life you both long for and deserve.

I looked at my Knights one last time and smiled, I would not wish for a better group of people to stand by my side and fight this never ending battle against darkness, their hearts are pure and their intentions can never be questioned. Each of them had earned the right to live this second life, and In my eyes they never have to prove themselves to anybody in this universe lest they want to face me. I turned to Lady Chaos and asked her when do we depart for earth, her simple answer was in the next hour we would depart. I knew within my heart that out arrival on earth would mentally and emotionally taxing for me and my knights, but we all knew what was at stake, we all the risk we have taken when we agreed to fight this battle, and Gods be damned, we will win this battle.

I turned back to my knights and ordered them to go prepare for our departure and prepare for battle upon arrival, I had nothing to worry about. These were the best of the best throughout the universe and darkness would cower once we bring them to the light to be judged. I turned back to Lady Chaos, as I had questions that she had been avoiding for centuries, now was the time and I needed to know why.

"Lady Chaos, I believe you owe me some answers. Why was I not accepted into the Creed? and not that I am grateful, why did you grant my request to resurrect my friends and comrades and turn us into an Order"

Lady Chaos simply sighed, knowing that the time had come to answer my questions, What I was wondering though is why, what could be so important that she kept these answers away from me in the first place. When I first arrived, I thought I was going to join the Creed, but after the revelation of me being the Archangel, that never happened, while I was doing some assignments and missions for the Creed I was never really a part of it, but the Creed and its member still treated me as a brother and they have my thanks for it.

"The answer is simple young Perseus" Lady Chaos said

I flinched when I heard my name, It has been centuries since someone had called me by that name, and I had to admit it felt really good and refreshing to hear it, not even my knights called me by my name since Chaos had ordered to everyone who knew my real identity to never speak of it. But deep down within my hear and soul I knew I was still Percy, I maybe known to the universe as Zeta Archangel Prince of the Universe but I will always be Perseus Jackson Son of Poseidon and Sally Jackson.

"When you were revealed to the whole cosmos, the whole universe, every star, every planet, every living creature, Human, Animal, Titan and or God knew that the knew prince of the universe had been crowned, That the Archangel had been found. The doors of the Void were opened once again and the universe was there to witness your rise to greatness, Didn't you ever wonder why thousands if not millions of people were bowing before you when you turned into the Archangel after I had passed down my blessing onto you?"

Lady Chaos stated looking at me for an answer at her last statement, she chuckled a bit at my lack of an answer before continuing her explanation, but with all honesty I had never really wondered on why so many people had come into the void at that very exact moment, well up until now. I still had a few questions but they could wait until Lady Chaos had finished her explanations,

"When the first Archangel had passed everyone felt his passing, everyone was saddened by the loss, the prince of the universe had passed without its rightful successor, and balance was lost, darkness engulfed the universe and I was powerless to stop it. I had closed the void to prevent the darkness from spreading within my realms, The only people who lived here, were those who were granted access and blessed by the previous Archangel, I looked at him the same way I look at you, I see a son. I see a man destined for greatness if not something even more grand,"

At her words I felt this warm fuzzy feeling creeping into my heart, Lady Chaos had thought of me as a son, It was the highest praise that she could have honored me with and I am proud to call myself her son. When I saw Erebus murder my family in the most brutal and gruesome way possible, I was lost within myself, for the first few years within the void I forgot who I was, but Lady Chaos looked after me, she cared for me when no one else would, her motherly smile always brought me out from depression and she eventually saved me from darkness itself, I had always thought of Lady Chaos as my mother but never said it out loud, I guess things are about to change once this war is over.

"To restore the balance of the universe, the balance between the light and the darkness you needed to be seen, you needed to restore hope within the universe, and you could not do that hiding in the shadows, The universe needed to see its Prince rise up and take the fight against the darkness that engulfed it, I needed you to be the hope that everyone relies on, I needed you to be the person that everyone wanted to be, I needed you to be the hero that frees this universe from itself, I needed you to bask in the light and bring it to every star and planet in the universe. and to do that, you needed a warriors that to stand by your side whether it be in a life or death situation, warriors that you could trust with your very life and warriors that would guard yours with theirs. The Creed is an honorable order, but to trust them it would take you centuries since you cannot simply trust a man whose name and face you do not know, Archangel or not, it is simply impossible. That is the reason why you did not join the creed and the reason I allowed you to select your warriors". Lady Chaos finished

I was satisfied with the answers that she had provided me, It was really understandable now, It all made sense, but what I do not understand is why tell me all of this now, why not tell me any of this the very day I was revealed to be the Archangel, I highly find any of this worth keeping away from me, she is still hiding something, though I do not know what and nor do I know her reasons for doing so.

"Lady Chaos, with respect, although I understand everything you had just said. I still do not understand why this would merit a delay in its revelation towards me, I highly doubt that me knowing this would change the outcome of the things I have done over the past five centuries, but what baffles me more, is why am I not allowed to use my name and instead use the name Zeta Archangel, and if the Gods could feel my ascent to the becoming the new Archangel, why did they never visit when other worlds had, " I asked as curiosity was getting the best of me at the moment.

"My young prince, My young Perseus, you have grown more perceptive throughout the years, never let anyone tell you that you are not an intelligent being, however I can see that you still fail to grasp the workings of the mind of the universe my son."

Lady Chaos said, and I simply chuckled at the thought that someone had called me an intelligent being, however warmed up when she had once again called me her son. I motioned her to continue before my Knights return to my side.

"The answer to both your questions are is simple my son" Lady Chaos said with a slight pause as I saw a flash of pain and sadness in her eyes before she had continued,

"I can still remember his face, The first Archangel, I treated him as a son, and loved him as much as I loved my own children. You and he are very much alike my young prince, always fighting for justice, always willing to accept death if it means peace. Young Perseus, with every battle that you have fought, with every planet you had visited, with every blood you have shed, with every evil you have vanquished, with every planet you have freed from darkness and every civilization you had revitalized, you had been spreading hope within the universe, you had been fighting with darkness the very moment you had arrived, you had been destroying the darkness that inhabited each planet and star you saved. with each battle won, and with each war you have ended the influence Erebus had gained diminished as the darkness was overthrown by the light, As the Gods fight the war on earth you have been fighting the war with the whole universe my young prince"

Lady Chaos stated before looking at me to see if I had followed everything she had just said before she continued.

"To tell you why the Gods could not visit, I would have to tell you about him, and how he came to pass, I have to tell you about Messiah. Messiah Archangel" Lady Chaos said

Messiah? I thought to myself, as in The Messiah, as in The God of the Bible, That Messiah. I mean what the Hades is going on, First I thought that the God of the Bible was nothing but a story created to cover up the truth that the real Gods were the Gods of Greek Mythology, Now I find out that the God of the bible is real too, I am utterly confused at this, I was lead to believe that this was not true, Now Lady Chaos which happens to be a higher being that the Gods of Olympus themselves is stating that he did indeed exist. Gods I hope that she doesn't tell me that the Gods of Egyptian and Norse Mythology are real as well. Thankfully Lady Chaos senses my inner turmoil at this shocking revelation and explain further.

"Many a thousand years ago when the universe was still young, I created the planets and all its stars in the image of purity and justice, I created them to be innocent. But what I did not know that while I was creating them I created a being, a child born from the image of purity and justice, a child so innocent that wings of pure white were formed around him, I called him Messiah Archangel, He then became the prince of the universe, centuries passed and Messiah had brought joy within the universe spreading peace and prosperity. I decided to gift him with a creation of my own, I created the earth for him, the most beautiful and wonderful planet within the Universe. but not everyone was happy, My son Erebus grew jealous of Messiah and convinced his brothers and sisters to join him, They waged war within the earth and as the years went by the war still raged on until Erebus was able to corrupt on of Messiah's warriors."

I was listening intently to the story of Lady Chaos, She really did love Messiah and it broke her heart to relive this story, but for me to have any chance in surviving this war, I needed to know what exactly happened.

"Messiah and the twelve warriors that stood by his side battled against darkness for centuries until Messiah was betrayed by one so close to him, The whole universe felt the sorrow and betrayal that Messiah felt, and the light succumbed to darkness. I had to close the void to avoid it from being infected by the darkness only allowing a few blessed by me and Messiah himself to remain. I was furious with what my children had done and I cursed them and their future children and grand children and banished them to the earth to live the rest of their days, As centuries passed by, The Titans cam to rise as my children went into slumber. The reason that the Gods are not allowed within the void, within my realm is because they posses the blood of my children as Gaea is their grandmother, the only reason you and Omega are allowed within my realm is because you are blessed by me."

I was in shock, I did not know the history and the responsibility that my title held and I went through everyday as if it was nothing, I knew there was more to her story and I quickly cursed my self for having Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and listened to the rest of Lady Chaos's tale

"However not all was lost in the earth, the remaining warriors that had survived the war scattered across the earth creating what mortals called the bible, trying to stop the darkness from spreading and hoping that a new Archangel would be found and rid the earth of the darkness that enslaves it. That is where you come in my young prince, This battle that you will face, will be none like you have ever seen before, My children have all awakened from their slumber and gathered all the allies that they have made over the centuries, I know that it is unreasonable to have you fight this war, but it is a war that only you can win."

I inwardly sighed to myself, I knew that this was going to be the toughest and most difficult battle that I have ever faced, but being reminded of it did not exactly help my case. After she drops an information bomb like that and tells me that I have to win, I hope she is not expecting a cherry reaction from me, cause lets face it, no one would be happy about that revelation, I mean who tells the secrets of the universe and then tells them you have to go to war and win. But I sucked it all up and looked at her straight in those magnificent eyes that I keep loosing myself in, I mentally slapped myself for zoning out again and said to Lady Chaos.

"By the blood of my father I shall lift the curse you had set, I shall grasp the darkness and bring them into the light to be judged by my blade, I will not fail you Lady Chaos, I swear this on the blood of my father, the blood that flows within my veins, I swear this to you as the prince of the universe that I will not fail!" I said to Lady Chaos with a fiery determination that she saw in my eyes as her own magnificent eyes widened at my proclamation as she smiled at me in return, a smile filled with love that got me to think about those that I had left behind.

The Daughter of Athena, Annabeth Chase, My Wise Girl, I wonder how she is doing right now, could she have found a new person to love, could she had properly replaced me?, I wondered to my self as my thoughts went through all the special moments we had together and then my thoughts brought me over to Thalia Grace a spunky Daughter of Zeus, someone I had thought I loved as a sister, but on my dying breath I saw her eyes, filled with tears and love, and from that moment. Even if she did not tell me that she loved me I knew that we loved each other the same way that I loved Annabeth.

Gods this is so confusing for me, I do not know what to feel, I have not seen both in over five hundred years, I do not even know If they still love me the way they did back then. I can't help but wonder what would their reaction be once they find out that I was alive all this time, I wonder how my Dad, Jason or worse Uncle Zeus find out that I had returned from the dead just to proclaim my love for Thalia.

I chuckled at the thought before I mentally and literally slapped myself causing Lady Chaos to step back a bit because of my actions.
When did I start thinking of Thalia as mine?, When did I admit to myself that I loved Thalia Grace. I thought to myself as I was graced by the image of a head strong woman with a smile that lights up the earth, with silver eyes as deep as the seas and the most wonderful auburn hair in the world, Artemis, I can only chuckle at the beating she would give me.

Wait. Hold on just one minute Jackson, Prince of the Universe or not, I need to get her image out of my head unless I want to be turned into a Jackalope. Gods I am so screwed up, I can't wait until everyone finds out that I am actually alive, I might just have to fight two wars, one with Erebus and one with my crazy family, I am so going to be skinned alive I thought to myself. I was so lost in thought that I could not even hear Lady Chaos screaming my name until an multiple sound echoed throughout the room that brought me out of my daydream

Slap Slap Slap Slap

Lady Chaos was shaking me and slapping me silly to my displeasure, It did not even help one bit when she looked like she was enjoying every moment of it. Why did I have to be every woman's personal punching back I thought before I completely snapped back to my wonderful pain filled reality.

"S-Stop S-S-Slap-p-ping me!" I said in between slaps

As soon as she stopped she gave me this amused look while I was busy rubbing my now very red sore cheeks from her motherly affection,

"What were you thinking about that made you zone out and leave reality for so long Perseus?" Lady Chaos asked

I blushed a bit but successfully fought it down since I did not want her to know what I was thinking about, I had never been in my whole life thankful that no one could read my thoughts unless I give them permission to, Perks of being the Prince of the Universe I guess.

"Nothing Lady Chaos, and please, If your going to start calling me by my real name call me Percy nor Perseus" I answered her

"I swear, even with all his seriousness we had just a few moments ago in our conversation, you find a way to revert back to your old seaweed brained self." Lady Chaos said with a chuckle as we are still waiting for the arrival of my Knights.

"So, Perseus. When will decide to give me a grandchild?" Lady Chaos asked with a serious tone in her voice but had a glint of mischief in her eyes

I growled a bit at the use of my full name but immediately blushed a beet red at the mention of grandchildren, Oh by the Gods if only she knew, I mused to myself. although I was wondering what was taking my knights so long to arrive, and as soon as those thoughts left my mind my knights had once again entered into the throne room suited for battle but all of them were wondering about the hand marks on my cheeks but one look from me told them to drop it, to which they did only after a few chuckles and an audible laugh from Zoe was made.

We were all prepared for battle, just awaiting the final words from Lady Chaos so she can open up a portal for us to enter the earths atmosphere and begin to rid the world of darkness once and for all.

"Before you all go, I want you all to keep an eye out. The Gods have done their best to prevent Erebus and his brothers and sisters from taking over the earth, but I am afraid that they are too weakened at the moment to do so, Erebus was able to fully corrupt on of the campers and had managed to hide whoever it is well, not even I can find out who he or she is. But whoever this person is, he or she is causing turmoil within the demigod ranks disrupting the peace the Gods have made throughout five centuries and no one not even the Gods have noticed it. Finding out who this person is will be your first task once you arrive on earth" Lady Chaos said,

I gained a thoughtful look on my face, I knew that having a spy within your ranks was bad, based on personal experience it could lead up to the deaths of everyone within the ranks, But this person has been corrupted and he or she did not deserve to be put down, but just how far gone is this person. can whomever it be still be saved? I pondered before deciding to ask Lady Chaos.

"Lady Chaos, This person corrupted by darkness, whomever he or she may be, How far gone is the corruption, can they still be saved?" I asked.

Lady Chaos looked at me with a sad smile and said

"I am afraid not my young prince, whoever this person is, Is lost for eternity, though they hide it well, you need to find out who this is, before they put a stake in your heart my young prince." Lady Chaos finished.

I did not put any meaning to her words, but I did dwell on the fact that I would have to take an innocent life with my blade. I had always thought that the blood of the innocent that stained my blade was always heavier than blood tainted with evil, Taking a life is never easy, but I have learned a valuable lesson throughout the years, The needs of many greatly outweigh the needs of the few.

I looked back at Lady Chaos and smiled at her, She instantly knew that I would not let my sense of justice take over what needs to be done, we were about to give our parting words and depart to the earth when a portal opened up in front of us and a hooded figure stepped out, We were immediately on guard, surrounding Lady Chaos as I took a step forward and pointed my blade directly towards her, completely forgetting that I was not wearing my helmet and my face could be seen.

"Show your face or feel the steel of my blade!, I am Zeta Archangel and my blade will be the last thing you see!" I stated with venom in my voice, no one invades my mothers throne room without her permission.

The figure was startled and jumped back a little flinching at my obvious threat, but as soon as the figure regained composure, she pulled off her hood and revealed her face, She was barely fourteen years old. She had stunning moon kissed silver hair that fell all the way to her thighs with two streaks of midnight black hair that flowed on her face, her eyes were the most amazing pair of eyes that I have seen besides Lady Chaos, They were colored silver with sea green rings around her moon shaped pupils, her skin was a fair milky white and her ears that were a bit longer that normal, to the untrained eye she looked fairly like a normal person, but to the trained eye you could tell that this was member of the Elves of the Night.

" Night Elf " My knights as well as Chaos muttered in astonishment, since their race had been destroyed a few years ago but one.

Realization hit me hard, when I figured out who this person was, she looked just like her, It was a few years back when I saved an Elven princess from the destruction of her planet as it was too corrupted by the darkness and was at a point beyond saving, I brought her to planet Neptune where she could live and start a new, I gave her a way to travel instantly to me in case something bad happened. She had the same moon kissed hair as she does, She was the only one outside of the family that knew my face, I fell in love with her instantly seeing the innocence in her eyes, but sadly I had to leave her on Planet Neptune. She had once told me that she had sired a child and I was the father, We had agreed that she needed to be kept away from me to avoid the dangers of war, but if she is here right now then that means.

"Are you Perseus Jackson? Are you my father?" She asked

I simply looked at her, I can see the resemblance she had to her mother but that left me worrying why was she not here with her, I lowered my blade and looked at her in the eyes and smiled,

"Yes Azzreanna Luna Jackson, I am your father"

I could not help but give into that star wars moment as it was presented to me on a silver platter, but as I said those words to her, she just let the tears leave her eyes and rushed towards me, I pulled her into a tight embrace, clinging to her wishing that she would not disappear that this was not a figment of my imagination. I have longed to hold my daughter in an embrace for years now, but I could not still help but worry about her mother. but by the state she is in, It is not good, I would have to talk to her about it later on but not right now, right now she needs her father.

Within the whole ordeal I still had not let go of Azzreanna from my embrace, I did not notice the others around my, I did not notice that Lady Chaos and Zoe Nightshade had fainted in the background while Selena was doing her best not to faint herself. Charles and Luke were spitting out incoherent sentences while blushing a deep shade of red, If I ever find out that they are staring at my beloved daughter I am going to see heads roll,

I pulled Azzreanna out of my embrace and wiped a lone tear that was falling from her cheeks, I kissed her softly on her forehead and whispered that everything was going to be alright, That we would talk when she was feeling a bit better, I also noticed as from the embrace that we had shared that her slender body was built in muscle, she was a trained warrior like her mother was, I am willing to swear on the river Styx that she is as gifted if not even more gifted in elven magic, but that is a story for another day.

"My beloved daughter, my dear Azzreanna, would you like to finally meet your Grandmother along with your aunt and uncles?" I asked her, and she smiled at me and nodded. I was ecstatic to see her approval, but I could not help but give out a hearty laugh when I remembered my conversation about grandchildren with Lady Chaos.

I looked back to where my knights and Lady Chaos were, and I guess she had just woken up. Because she had a look that promised me a whole world of pain, Zoe was still making a very good impression of a fish, and I should know, I am a son of the sea after all.

"Azzreanna, the pretty old lady over there is your grandmother, go on say hi" which earned a few giggles from my knights and a death glare from Lady Chaos herself at the word 'old'

I spoke to Azzreanna in a baby voice, which I guess weirded her out since she was fourteen but I could not care less, I had missed my baby girl for fourteen years, I was entitled to speak to her any damn way I pleased.

I then hear Luke finally speak,

"How.. What.. When.. Elf.. Daughter.. Father,.. Grandma.. Uncle.. Me..?" Luke stuttered

This of course had caused everyone to break from their current shocked state and simply laugh much to the confusion of Azzreanna, I saw Luke turn a bright shade of red, I looked towards my daughter and nudged her forward to introduce herself to Lady Chaos, who really is technically her grandmother if you follow my bloodline. I fought every fiber in my body to laugh at her shocked face, but my gut told me to hold it in as that I would feel pain afterwards. Luckily my gut has never failed me before, I watched as Azzreanna made her way slowly to Lady Chaos, I could not fault the child, She was meeting the creator of the universe after all.

"A-Are you my Grandmother?" Azreanna asked, and I felt a small stab, I mean why would she doubt me, well maybe it had something to do with never being there for her, Gods now I know what dad felt.

Lady Chaos just looked at Azzreanna and then back to me for a few minutes, trying to comprehend the situation in front of her right now, after a few minutes and one extremely long deep breath she smiled at Azzreanna and pulled her into another embrace

"Yes my dear, I am your grandmother," Lady Chaos replied which caused a chain reaction within the knights

"Hi!, I'm Selena Beauregard, and I'm your aunt! and aren't you just the cutest little thing!"

Selena chirped as she was jumping up and down, her Aphrodite mode kicking in overdrive.

Azzreanna on the other hand was not amused, as she scowled at the thought of being called cute, little and a thing. I guess that she did not know that It was a figure of speech, Gods I hope that she does not turn out into another Zoe Nightshade, well, on second thought maybe it would not be so bad, I would keep boys from talking to her. Maybe I can even convince her to join the hunt at some point after the war.

Zoe just laughed seeing the scowl on Azzreanna's face, she seemed amused that she was not the only one annoyed by the daughter of Aphrodite's antics from time to time and she introduced herself, along with the rest of the group much to their dismay.

"Thy name is Zoe Nightshade, and I guess I am your Aunt. The two boys behind me are Luke and Charles, but do not mind them,"

Zoe said with a smirk much to the protest of said boys. She then turned her eyes towards me and narrowed them looking straight into my eyes demanding answers. I looked towards Lady Chaos practically begging her to save me, but she just narrowed her eyes at me. I inwardly sighed, I knew that I had to give an explanation at some point, I just wished that we do it after the war.

"Azzreanna dear, Come here" I said , to which Azzreanna quickly followed and sat on my lap,

"What happened to your mother?" I asked.

"She, She passed away from illness." Azzreanna said as tears flooded her once again.

I could not help but cry myself, as I told them the story of how I met her mother

"When you sent me to the land of the Elves fifteen years ago, I met Ayhaeasia Summermoon,She was a wonderful woman, and an spectacular person, She was the most gifted in elven magic and a skilled marksman, as skilled as Lady Artemis herself, She was the only soul who was not corrupted in their planet that is why I saved her. I brought her to planet Neptune to where she could start a new life, I knew I could not bring her with me unless I risk her life to be put in constant danger. She was the only woman that I fell in love with ever since I had arrived in the void and revealed to be the Archangel, The night before we left, was the night Azzreanna was created, she was created out of our love, even now I can sense the purity within my daughters soul. I had always sent her presents on her birthday but she could never now who I was, Ayhaeasia had always told her that It was to protect me, I now somewhat know how my father felt when I was born, always at arms length but never able to speak to me. I gave Ayhaeasia a feather from my wing, I told her to burn it and think of me and it will open up a portal to wherever I may be. I told her only to use it in the direst of moments, but I did not think that she would succumb to illness, She had never told me about it."

I finished my story with tears running down my eyes, Azzreanna who had stopped her crying simply pulled me into an embrace and wiped away my tears,

Everyone was moved by the story some even had tears in their eyes, but they looked at Azzreanna with a smile, already accepting her into our little family.

"Once the war is over, I will announce to the entire universe that a princess was born." Lady Chaos said with a smile

Azzreanna rushed over to Lady Chaos and pulled her into an embrace, Lady Chaos then looked at me reminding me that we have wasted too much time already, although she did not regret it, we still had a mission to complete and a world to save. I looked down at Azzreanna who was still in my pseudo mothers embrace and smiled a sad smile, I was just reunited with her only to be torn away by the call of war.

"My daughter, Me, Your Aunts and Uncles must go now, we have a world to save. But you can stay here with your grandmother." I told her, and she just glared at me.

I could not help but think that she was exactly like her mother, down right stubborn right to the glare.

"No Father!, I will come with you and help!" Azzreanna argued.

"Now now, dear, It is a dangerous place your father is heading to, you can stay with me, and I promise that if they need you, I will send you to them right away, you look like you can take on a few monsters yourself my dear" Lady Chaos said with a smile

But being the stubborn girl that Azzreanna is, and I swear it comes from her mothers side of the family, did the technique that no man nor woman young or old could refuse. she just sat there in front of all of us with a small pout biting her lower lip and having her arms crossed around her chest, Her eyes were beginning to tear up and I swear that It is the most heart wrenching sight I have ever seen, Selena had already give up on fighting it and began to coo my daughter, Charles and Luke were a bit harder to break since they know that this war was nothing a young girl, especially their newly found niece should see. Zoe was just staring at the girl wondering what she was trying to do, I on the other hand was at my breaking point and decided that maybe it would not hurt to have her by my side.

I was about to allow her to come, but thankfully, and I do not know how she did it since no one could resist the blasted techniques charms, well except for Zoe, but she was clueless, Lady Chaos resisted the urge to give in and allow her to come with us.

"Do not give me that look young lady, I made that look, I will send you if they need help. alright?" Lady Chaos said with a stern look and tone

Azzreanna eventually gave up, knowing that there was no winning and she would wait until we needed her to come, I however looked at Lady Chaos with a look of betrayal and disbelief, she created that look, the look that got me to do so many stupid favors for countless women. She just smirked at me and opened a portal and told us to be on our way.

I looked at my knights who had adopted a look of seriousness in them, I willed my crown to take the form of a hood to cover up my face, and the rest of the knights pulled on their hoods as well, our identities are to remain a secret at all cost, We do not need Erebus and his allies to gain an advantage because of our identities. I went over to Azzreanna and planted a soft kiss on her cheek before we entered the portal to descend into earths atmosphere.

Once we came out on the other side, I could see Camp Half Blood along with all the Gods beside their children, Roman and Greek, I can see the Amazons standing behind Lady Hera, I spotted Artemis and her hunters on the east side of the camp, I can my father Poseidon and brother Triton by the edge of the sea, to hold of any aquatic forces that may attack.

I looked over to the shadows that were slowly taking down monsters without them knowing, I smirked as I noticed Omega looking at me as if saying, What the hell took you so long.

Within moments before the fight breaks out, My Knights had crashed on the ground creating craters around them, looking straight at the enemy. I spread my wings at full length and flared my aura around the area, the weaker members all turned into gold dust my the sheer power my aura possessed, Everyone was looking at me stunned, The gods had their jaws planted firmly to the ground. The monsters were taking a few steps back in fear, I noticed that the one leading them was Kronos himself along with his titan siblings, but Erebus nor his brothers and sisters were currently present. It was either this attack was to check the defenses of the camp or they had gotten to arrogant to appear themselves, either way. no one was from their army was leaving alive.

"In the name of Lady Chaos, Creator of the Universe I order you to stand down and surrender!" I bellowed, my voice giving of such strength and power

The Titans along the monsters within their ranks looked at me in awe and in fear once I had said the name of Lady Chaos, I was half hoping that they would refuse but the peaceful side of me always wanted to give the enemy a fair chance to be judged before sent to eternal damnation, I looked towards my knights and I can see each one of them itching for battle, I could see the shadows growing restless and It made me chuckle, the creed never was patient and they were assassins for gods sake.

"We are not afraid of you!, Tell Chaos that once we are through with these pathetic Gods, I will show her how a pitiful she really is!" Hypherion bellowed.

I growled at the insult, as the shadows were already calling for blood at the insult to Lady Chaos, My knights were not fairing any better as their weapons were already visible in their hands. I sighed to myself and shook my head, Hypherion never was a smart Titan, I could already see Prometheus shaking his head while palming his face.

"So be it," I thundered

"I Zeta Archangel, Prince of the Universe, consider you all judged. May eternal damnation have mercy on your souls, because I will not!" I said in a blood thirsty growl.

I looked Hypherion straight in the eyes before snapping my fingers, watching Hypherion scream in pain as the immortal black flames of the universe engulf his very body and soul, I could see the gold ichor seep through his burnt skin as he fell lifeless on the ground before completely fading into nothingness.

I turned around to the Gods, my Knights and to the Shadows,

"ROAR FOR ME MY KNIGHTS!, ROAR FOR ME THE NOBLE GODS OF OLYMPUS! ROAR FOR ME BRAVE DEMIGODS! ROAR FOR ME WARRIORS OF THE SEA! BUT MOST OF ALL ROAR FOR PEACE WITHIN THE ERA OF CHAOS!"

To be continued. . .
