I haven't decided if this is a Percabeth story or a Percy/OC yet, but I know that Rose and Percy have feel feelings for each other.

Here we are. Explanations and the first day as a god!

Chapter 3:

Chiron bowed and the other campers reluctantly followed, not sure whether they should be offended, shocked, or happy for their friends and/or siblings. Actually, they were shocked. That was the one feeling that they knew to feel. What had happened to their parents? Why are they the ones to be the gods? Questions and confusion spread through the group once they straightened themselves in whispers. No one was sure what was going on and the gods and Chiron noticed that.

Chiron had other things to do rather than explain to the heroes that their parents are gone forever. He had to finish the ceremony. Of course, Apollo and Hermes had set up a major party once the ceremony was finished. Who wouldn't have a party after something like this? "What now Chiron?" Jason asked, his voice booming through the room and quieting the campers.

Everyone looked at him expectantly. He smiled a little bit more. "Tomorrow, you have to begin dealing with your realms, but Apollo and Hermes have saved this day to celebration."

Leo and Will fist pumped. Piper merely rolled her eyes. "Do we have to go to this party?"

Chiron nodded. "It is in honor of all of you."

Rose groaned. "Do we have to wear a dress?"

Everyone laughed, expect Piper. Neither of them were a big fan of dresses. In fact, Rose had only wore them a few times in her life. For funerals. That's it. So they weren't too happy when Chiron answered, "It is a formal event. You have til 6 o'clock to get ready and be back here. From here to then you can travel Olympus, visit your palaces, or explore your powers. Until then, the Olympians," he bowed again and turned to the campers. He gestured them out of the door promising to tell them about their parents tomorrow since today was supposed to be fun.

Once they all left, the Olympians went silence. Truth be told, they still have no idea whether to be happy, sad, or honored. Rose cleared her throat awkwardly and picked at the hearth making it glow brighter. "So, we're gods," Nico finished for her.

Sarah rolled her eyes. "No shit, Sherlock. I thought we were bunnies."

"No need for sarcasm," he grumbled back, sinking into his chair, a faint blush dancing across his cheeks.

"This'll be fun," Cole commented, crossing his arms over his chest.

No one knew whether that was sarcastic or serious. Cole didn't know either. It was silent for a few more minutes before everyone burst out laughing. They don't why they did it, it was just seemed right. So they laughed. They laughed to clear their confused thoughts. They laughed to break the uncomfortable silence. They laughed to be the kids they were before they became gods a couple hours ago. They just laughed.

Once they were done, they looked around at each other, smiling. "Think of it this way," Percy started. "We won't have any ridiculous quests."

Annabeth sighed. "Seaweed Brain, we'll be in charge of the quests now."

He blushed and laughed nervously. "Right."

A few laughed at his feeble attempt to make everything better. "You know maybe this could be cool," Travis smirked, putting his hands behind his head and leaning his feet on the hearth.

Katie rolled her eyes. "I really wished that you would burn your feet."

Travis opened his mouth to make a good comeback when Piper's eyes got wide and she jumped off her throne. "Is my palace pink?" If it was, this would be a pretty hard few millenia for her. No one could answer her because she sprinted out of there off in the direction of her palace.

Nico nodded. "She's got a good idea. I'm going to explore."

Thalia thought it would be better to go talk to the Hunters and invite them to the party first. "I'll see you guys later," she mumbled as she snapped her fingers and teleported to the Hunters' camp.

Jason stood up, everyone following his example, and they all went off in different directions, each eager to see their own palaces, new homes, and see what awesome powers they received.

Piper-

Piper sprinted as fast as her godly body could go. She couldn't have a pink palace. That would be torture for her during her life if it was. The nymphs and minor gods and goddesses had come out from their houses and palaces since they had a new Council and life was finally coming back to everything. But Piper didn't look at any of it. She just had to find out.

After a lot of cursing, getting lost, and asking for directions, she arrived at a lavender colored palace. It wasn't pink. Thank the gods, she thought. Oh, wait that's me. She giggled at her own joke thing and calmed down. She walked into her new home and saw her bags there already along with a note sitting on the mahogany dining table under her chandileer.

She walked over to it, ignoring the few nymphs running around cleaning and making her house nicer. She was used to maids. Picking up the note she sat down in one of the chairs.

Piper,

I fixed the color of the house for you. Your welcome. Now enjoy your life and don't forget love is more powerful than anything.

Your mom.

She placed the note down, smiling and thankful for her mom to do that for her. She sent a silent thanks to her whether she can hear it or not. Right now, she just wanted to relax and get used to her new house. Piper grabbed a few of her bags while the nymphs took the others and she went to explore her house.

Percy-

Percy had decided not to see his palace just yet. He already knew his powers, these were just more enhanced and more...powerful. So, he went with the last option: exploring Olympus. Even though he had seen it in bad times and good times, he still haven't seen all of it. He put his hands in his pockets and walked along the street, greeted by other gods and goddesses, a few of which had already flirting with him. Sure they were beautiful, Percy would even go as far as calling them hot, but he was still confused. Confused on his feelings. Being with Annabeth gave him that spark of happiness and he was positive he felt something towards her. She was his best friend though. He didn't want to lose her even if it meant not having her. But being around her, he felt that he had to be on guard and not make a complete fool out of himself. Trying to impress her, he thought.

Then Rose came in. They had been best friends for as long as Percy could remember. Started in kindergarten and a few crayons that Rose wanted to use, now they know everything about each other. Well expect for the fact that Percy maybe, just maybe, has a crush on her. He honestly didn't know what he felt towards her. He was himself around her. His guard let down, not caring if he made a fool out of himself. He felt like a kid around Rose. Not like that was a bad thing, but he just...didn't know, and it was making him more confused and frustrated.

Girls, Percy thought bitterly, kicking a rock in the street.

He didn't know what to feel, what they feel. He just didn't know.

Giving up in trying to sort out his feelings, he looked around at the statues at the edge of the street. Looks like we won't be forgetting anyone anytime soon, Percy smiled a bit. As long as the statues were in tact, they were all good. They wouldn't have to worry about missing anyone soon. "Annabeth really did a good job on these, huh?" Rose asked, standing next to him as he looked up at a statue of Poseidon. She ran her fingers over the words.

Percy flinched a little startled at her sudden appearance, but nodded either way. "It's just so weird."

Rose looked at him, eyebrows scrunched together in confusion. "What do you mean?"

He shrugged and ran a hand through his hair. "I don't know. It's just like knowing the only way that other kids will now them is by stories and statues."

She nodded, understanding what he was going on about. "We'll never forget them. We'll just to help out the others."

Percy chuckled a little. "Aren't gods forgetful?"

Rose laughed with him and slapped his arm, not really hurting him. "You know what I mean."

He smiled. "Definitely. Now, shall we go explore Olympus?" He asked in an English accent and holding out his arm.

Rose giggled and replied in the same accent, taking his arm. "We shall."

They walked off, laughing and joking around to the other parts of Olympus they have yet to discover.

Thalia-

Thalia nervously paced the woods, a couple minutes away from the Hunters' camp. Lady Artemis put Phoebe in charge while Thalia went to Camp under her orders. How was she supposed to tell these girls that their "sister" was now taking over for what was like a mother figure for them. "I can do this. I can do this," Thalia mumbled to herself, over and over, thinking it would convince her so she could just get this over with.

She took a deep breathe and marched confidently into the camp after a few minutes. She walked in as the girls were sitting around thier campfire. Everyone looked at her, confused. "What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be at Camp?" a newer member asked after a few moments of awkward silence.

Thalia looked down at her feet, sadly. She sat on the head place where Artemis usually sat. Doing that if you aren't Artemis, meant you were disrespecting the goddess. Serval Hunters jumped up, others shouted for her to move, and the rest stared at her shock. Thalia stood up, looking more intimidating than before she became a god. "Girls," she started in her most authority filled voice, "I will explain everything to you tomorrow, but for right now, we need to head to Olympus."

"Why?" Phoebe asked, worried. "Is something wrong with Lady Artemis?"

Thalia blinked back tears. Do not cry. You're a goddess. Goddess don't cry. Be strong for the Hunters. She waved a hand. "Lady Artemis is at rest now," it wasn't a lie. "She's fine. The Olympian Council has ordered us to go."

"What do you mean at rest?" the youngest member, Georgia, asked worried as well. "Does that mean she's dead?"

Serval girls gasped. "Lady Artemis cannot die. She is an immortal goddess," Tina, one of the oldest members, commented. "They can fade, but that only happens when no one believes in them anymore, but we're still here."

If only they knew. If only they knew. Thalia shook her head. "I told you we would talk about it tomorrow. Today is a day of celebration."

"Of what?" Mandy called out.

Thalia gulped. "I'll tell you before we get to New York."

"What is it, Thalia?" Phoebe asked frankly annoyed. "Why aren't you telling us anything now?"

"I don't want to go anywhere if I don't know why," Daisy grumbled from the group.

"That is enough!" Thalia shouted making every Hunter cringe back at her anger. "You will show respect for Lady Artemis and myself by going to Olympus without questions! If you want to know what we're celebrating then listen here. Olympus is celebrating the new gods that were adjourned today. You will be nice to the Campers there and the new gods. Is that clear?" Thalia hadn't known she could have that much authority in her voice at once. She was just as surprised as the Hunters at her tone.

They all nodded and Thalia sighed, rubbing her temples trying to stop the incoming headache she felt. Not even 4 hours in on the job and she was annoyed. She was positive that was a new world record. "Pack up Camp. We leave in 10 minutes!" She ordered the others.

They all ran off to the designated areas they were set to clean up. Thalia went to help some Hunters when she felt something pull her towards Jamie. It was like a small band of warning drawing her towards the young girl. Thalia went with it because you have to follow your gut right? Somehow she was transferred into the girl's mind. It's wrong to think this way. Jamie started. I'm a Hunter. I have forbidden myself from men. Forever.

Thalia's eyes widened. Two things were extremely wrong with just happened. 1) she just read the poor girl's mind. 2) Jamie was on the brink of breaking her oath to the Hunters. The thing was, Thalia didn't know whether to feel mad or happy for the girl. Jamie was in the Hunters 40 years before Thalia joined and she hasn't exactly been happy the whole time. Maybe it was just time. Thalia tapped Jamie's shoulder and when she turned to face the Lieutenant, she asked, "Can I talk to you for a minute, Jamie?"

Jamie nodded and they walked off out of hearing range of their fellow sisters. "Jamie answer me honestly," Thalia turned towards the girl and raised an eyebrow. "Do you have a crush on a boy?"

Jamie's eyes widened and a faint blush spread over her cheeks indicating Thalia's answer. "W-Why would you say that?"

Thalia smiled softly. "Is he worth breaking your oath?"

Jamie looked down at the ground and shuffled her feet. "I don't know, Thalia. We're just friends."

"Does he go to Camp?" She nodded. "Find out if he's worth your oath then come back and talk to me, Jamie." Thalia put her hand on Jamie's shoulder causing her to look up at her.

"You won't tell Lady Artemis?"

Thalia shook her head. "There's no need to." I already know.

Jamie sighed in relief. "Thanks Thalia."

"Yeah, yeah." Thalia waved her hand towards camp. "Go back to packing, Jamie."

Once Jamie ran away, Thalia sighed. This was going to be way harder than she thought. The Hunters weren't going to take this easy.

Ashley-

Ashley decided that since her only power under her mother was winning all the time, she would find out what other powers she had. Being the goddess of victory, it was extremely easy to just snap her fingers and go to a track meet or something like that. The closest one was a foot race between best friends. Without being the love goddess, Ashley knew these two had something for the other. She sat in a bush nearby, smirking. She was going to make this fun for them, her, and maybe, just possibly Piper too. She watched a girl with long blond hair tied in a ponytail, get in a stance next to a black haired boy. The girl smirked at the boy, "Ready Joey?"

The boy, Joey, nodded smirking as well. "On my mark, Sunshine. 3...2...1...Go!" They both sprinted forward and Ashley focused on the girl, Sunshine, winning. As she thought about it, Sunshine sprinted faster than Joey making him groan and try to increase his speed. Ashley laughed and made him go farther and faster too, bringing the girl a little slower.

Who knew making people win and lose was fun? Ashley thought happily as she continued to switch back and forth, giving them a tie in the end. "I win!" Joey yelled proudly, smirking.

Sunshine rolled her eyes. "Whatever. It was a total tie."

Joey ignored her. "What do I get for winning?"

"Another race?"

He laughed and they set up for another race which Ashley purposely let Joey win in. She had a liking in him. Something about him made her want Sunshine just admit her feelings for the kid so they could move on together. I'm such a hopeless romantic Ashley laughed and played more with the two kids, making Joey win then Sunshine then repeat the cycle, having the two kids argue in the end about who won. Since she was done there, Ashley decided to check out some other races or games and make more havic throughout the winning world and competeing friends. It was a lot more fun than she thought.

With a snap of her fingers she could make the winner fall and lose, the loser speed up and win. It was nice to put a little twist on things. Now if I could just get more people to race, I could have more fun. Ashley thought with a smirk. She could get Piper to charmspeak people.

Oh yeah. Ashley was definitely loving her role as the goddess of victory. She was going to have a whole lot of fun during these next few millenia. She could just imagine it now. The Olympics comes up soon too... Perfect.

Love it? Hate it? Tell me!
