" Welcome, Percy Jackson" A somewhat harsh voice spoke. Percy turned and saw Artemis giving him a hard glare, 'though her eyes were filled with a bit of sadness.
"Do you know why we summoned you?" She spoke again. It dawned on Percy by what she was asking. He looked up and stare at all the concern faces of the gods/goddesses.
" Why?. . ." Was all the demigod could say. " Because we care about you Percy" This came from a much softer and warmer voice. It belonged to Hestia.
" We gods cannot truly mend your heart but can give something that would put you at ease" This came from Aphrodite. Percy stared at the love goddess in confusion.
She continued" A second chance to become a god". Percy eyes widen at her words. Typically the gods only offered chances like these once, only fool would ever turn them down. This was all too good to be god would ever do something this generous without gain or wanting of something.
" What's the catch?" Percy asked, his voice holding a bit of suspicion. " Insolent boy! Do you understand that you are giving a second chance to live among the gods!
No one has ever been offered such a gift twice! You should be grateful, the cowardice crime you were about to commit would have thrown you into the fields of Asphodel"
Artemis snapped. Percy flinched, she continued" If you wish to be this stubborn then we could let you carry on with what you were previously doing".
He then blushed, ashamed at what he was about to do, had not the wise goddess stopped him. He realised how truly foolish he was and decide to make things right.
" You are right, I am deeply...sorry" Percy said, lower his head. " It is all behind us, now lets move on towards the future. Do you Perseus Jackson, wish to become one of the gods?" Athena asked, her voice now lighten but still serious. " Yes" He answered.
"
All those who agree on this mattered, raise your hands" This came from Zeus. Every god/goddess raise their hands. "Any that oppose?" He then asked.
No one dared raised their hand. " Alright then, Hermes do me the honour and fetch me the cup of life" Zeus commanded.
" Yes, my lord" The winged god answered. Within a twinkle of an eye, the cup was within the sky god's hand.
Percy stared at the cup in Zeus's hands. It was of an ancient design but looked new. The design was that of an old fashioned chalice. The cup was pristine white with black handwriting surrounding it. " This cup contains the blood of Chaos, goddess of creation, destruction and confusion. The true "mother" of us all" Zeus explained.
" Her blood is able to transform those of mortal or half mortal blood into that of a god. 'Though I warn you the transformation shall be very painful" He added.
Percy nodded and Zeus handed him the cup. " You only need a sip of it" He warned, percy obeyed. Percy took a sip of the blood and handed the cup back to Zeus.
He felt the blood fill into his system. The taste, a mixture sweet and bitterness enveloped his tongue.
Suddenly all his senses became extremely heighten and then the pain strucked. His body then felt as if it were on fire. Percy then fell to the floor, groaning. His muscles and nerves became very sore. A scream tore out of his throat as his bones began to break. Tears fell from the teen's face as the pain became too overwhelming.
Even, the act of thinking was far too much, for it was as if his brain was being constanly hit by a sledge hammer. But then a sense of peace began to spread throughtout the boy. He miraculously was able to turn onto back and look up into the faces of the gods as then began to slip into unconsciousness.
