PERCY'S POV

Zeus called my name, "Perseus Jackson, do you accept the gift of immortality?"

"Yes," I replied, I had come this far, so what could stop me.

"Very well," he said, and the jar fell. Immortality hurts, okay? 0/10 would not recommend, very painful. Like 1,000,000 times worse than the River Styx and Tartarus combined. The fiery pits of-

Well that was quick, and I mention painful?

I open my eyes, only to realize that no one, except for a passed out Piper, is in the room. So, being me, I wake her up, "Percy, you're glowing," she muttered. I just assumed that she was hallucinating, but boy was I wrong. My mortal essence was peeling away, and it was gross. My blood was boiling as it turned into Ichor, a really strange process, and let me tell you, actually don't let me tell you because I have no idea how to describe it.

It took me a while to get used to the fact that I was, y'know a flipping god. It's like being a baby, and learning everything again, like how to walk. Seriously, as soon as I could stand up I fell on my face. Talking was pretty hard, and I did not sound like myself. At all. After I seemed to manage walking and talking, I walked over to a mirror. I was wearing a blue toga thing and a laurel leaf crown thing, oh and did I mention that I looked about ten years older? It was probably the weirdest thing I have ever seen. No that's an understatement. Well, I guess Annabeth looked older too, but I didn't realize.

I walked (read: stumbled) into the throne room, most of the gods have left, only the parents of the seven, and Hestia remained. "Percy!" Annabeth exclaimed, giving me a hug,"

Athena rolled her eyes, "Seriously? You're a goddess now, you can do so much better than hi-" Athena stopped, realizing that I was a god too, one almost as powerful as her. "Actually I think that Perseus has proven himself to be worthy of you," she gave a quick nod and walked away, I guess she didn't want to show embarrassment.

"Congrats bro!" Jason said, once again, looking a lot older than he actually was, fistbumping me, "How's Piper?" He asked, now I knew the real reason he asked me.

"Fine, I suppose," I said. "She's certainly a lot better and hand eye coordination than I am, so I'm sure she'll be just fine,"

Jason looked relieved, "Thanks," he said, then went to wait by the entrance. "You look a lot like your dad by the way," he said. I guess I didn't really think about it that way. I did inherit most of his features, except I had a very different nose, my moms, and Poseidon had always appeared so much older than me and-

Sorry, I'm getting of track. Well anyways, I walked over to Frank and - Holy Mother Rhea - Hazel looks different. Well I guess since she was 13, but technically 84, then she'd be 23 but technically- ugh math. You think being a god would have perks like being good at math but no. "Hey Perce," Frank says. It's weird seeing him taller than even some of the gods. "Do you want some nectar?" He asked.

"Oh yeah! I forgot, nectar and ambrosia- no longer just for healing wounds," I said, taking a sip, it tasted like cherry coke, as always.

We continued to talk for a while, but then Annabeth pulled me aside, "Percy, that better be you because I just tapped your dad and it was really awkward," I turn around and confirm that is me. "So here's the thing, Aphrodite has the idea that now that we're gods, that we should-" I looked at her in horror, "not that, you perv!" She said, giggling.

"What?" I asked, "What's so perverted about wanting to adopt an immortal puppy?" Annabeth face palmed.

"I guess I'm the perverted one now," Annabeth said, "What she meant was get married,"

"What?" I asked, maybe a little too loudly.

"It's apparently been centuries since the last godly wedding she planned, and she's in one of those...how would you put it... ship-happy moods." Annabeth said, "Also I may have told her we're engaged," she muttered.

"What?!" I asked. I'm not mad at her, just a little annoyed. It's not that I don't want to get married, it's just that I'm still 17, mentally at least. Then again, in Ancient Greece this was completely normal.

"I hate her charmspeak too," Annabeth said, "but please will you play along, she gets really scary when she's annoyed, and I don't want her to make my life, love or otherwise, interesting again."

"Okay," I said, before I questioned it. "But where do I get the rings-"

I was cut off by Annabeth pulling two rings out of thin air, "Perks of being a goddess, am I right?" They were beautiful, and it seemed Annabeth had put a lot of thought into them, even though they just seemed to appear out of nowhere. "Quick put one on,"

She tossed me a ring and I slid it on just before my dad appeared to congratulate me, "You deserve this more than anyone," he said, "especially more than that Jerkules," I laughed at the terrible pun while Annabeth rolled her eyes. "Also, congrats on the engagement," wow the news had spread fast.

"Thanks dad," I said, slowly walking away. I found Jason, he didn't seem to be talking to anyone, so I figured I'd start a conversation. "Hey bro," I said.

"Hey Percy, is it true that you and Annabeth are-" Jason said, a little concerned. "Engaged,"

"Yeah," I confirmed, "Aphrodite's idea, not mine."

"Well good luck," Jason encouraged. "Once, Venus," he pronounced it that Latin way (Wee-nis)* "got involved with one of the weddings in new Rome and-" he trailed off.

"And what?" I asked, more than a little concerned.

"Oh, nothing. It was great," he said, but I could tell he was lying.

A/N:

*Yes, that actually is the proper way of saying it
