I am so sorry and ashamed of the huge gap in my publishing of this chapter and the last. It sickens me. I am trying to maintain a steady pattern but not only is writing hard but to publish this chapter(written in December) but it is hard to publish it on any platforn other than computer which i did not have. But no worries I have a PC now and an awesome holiday is coming up. Soon. ;).
Chapter 4
Leo's POV
I was having a blast, all I was feeling was utter joy.
I was a god, a god of Olympus and because of my powers I became a major one. Soon I'll be helping my father on the forge, exercising my powers and completing godly duties. So tonight I'm going to enjoy myself.
"So Dionysus have anything that can make me drunk?"
"Godly wine, the only thing that can make gods drunk like a mortal in Vegas. You sure you want it, since there are so many mortals I can't bring it out. Percy even came here wanting to get drunk, gave him the normal stuff."
"Heck yeah, I want to live the night, screw you twenty-one years of age."
One shot, all it took.
"Never had alcohol before?" "Twenty one years." "Only in the U.S of A."
The Next Morning
I had a splitting headache.
As in jackhammer. The room was white and smelled of fresh leaves. I was going to roll over but I was met with a body, luckily warm.
On that note I had to scramble out of bed and put some distance between us. With my movement the body started moving and it was stirred from sleep.
She was groggy as well but as soon as she turned I wanted to scream.
It was Hazel.
Di immortalés. Frank's girlfriend, I betrayed him. Gods... wait.
"Hazel, how are you,"
"Leo? Leo! What are you doing in my room and why are you nake- ," with that she looked at herself and then back at me. "No, no, no, Leo what happened last night,"
"Alcohol, godly alcohol, lots of it and then I go blank. What about you do you remember anything?"
She looked very distressed and probably like me had a hangover, she attested to this by clutching her head and groaning.
'We're so screwed.'
Percy's POV
I rushed to the throne room as Zeus had called a meeting, for what I don't know all I know is that I'm late.
After Annabeth and I broke up Fern came over and due to the fact that gods can't get drunk, or at least Dionsyus was tricking me with mortal wine, we had a decent talk and enjoyed the rest of the party or as much as I could.
We made plans to meet again in two days time and I have to say it's nice having just a friend.
As I approached the doors I slowed down and pushed them open. Nearly all the gods were there except Hermes, Apollo and Aphrodite probably because of hangover.
Even so all the gods looked tired and irritable. I expanded my molecules which Apollo taught me before the party and sat on my throne.
My father greeted me first and the Zeus but as courtesy not out of care.
Soon Aphrodite, Hermes and Apollo flashed in and the meeting began. "I have called this meeting to recognise and officially inducted Perseus into the Olympian council. Also we are here to reward each new god or goddess with their animal and new symbols of power. Perseus you have the next few hours to chose, Apollo shall be your godly mentor. We shall meet hear in three days time."
With that he flashed out. I shrunk down as Apollo approached me. "Meet me in the Colosseum in an hour." With that he also flashed out.
I left to see how my palace/residence/home was getting along.
Piper's POV
"Piper? Piper, where are you?" "In the living... Giant room where you keep your TV."
"Here you are, anyway, I have been choosen to be your godly mentor and as such I would think it prudent to begin now." "Prudent?" "It's a word."
"I know it is but, well, Aphrodite the goddess of lust using the word prudent does not reply work."
"Just work with me here. As the goddess of true love, competitions, persuasion and memories you will have a lot of godly duties but first you must learn the basics."
"Like." "Flashing for one, it is different to every god but just think in your head about how you would think it would be to teleport. Try to go to H&Ms... in London, and buy me a cute miniskirt. "
"Let's try something a little closer, what about from here to the elevator?" "Fine, that could work too."
To me flashing seems to be like blowing up like a burst light then rewinding into your normal form somewhere else, so that's what I did.
I popped just infront of the elevator luckily with no one there so they don't vapourise and stuff. I then popped back to my mothers palace.
"I have been expecting you." "I know, you sent me to flash to the elevator and back." "Let me have my fun. Anyway since it seems that flashing comes easily to you most likely your godly form does to, it's just like flashing but you don't think of where you want to go but on the flash it's self."
"Your godly duties will be next. The fates gave a list to each of you for your duties in the world and how to perform them. Your specific powers will also manifest in accordance with your duties. Here's your list "
Piper: Goddess of True love, Persuasion, Memories and Competitions
List of Duties
As the goddess of true love you shall work with your mother in altering and creating emotions but as you are the goddess of true love your alterations shall be stronger in that area. You acquired this domain due to the care you have for Jason.
As the goddess of persuasion you shall effect all areas of persuasion from debates to arguements to speeches. You shall work with Nike on things like debates, elections as she is the goddess of victory and with Heremes on lies as he is the god of lies. You acquire this domain due to the mastery you have of charmspeak. "Lies?!" "You do what you gotta do."
As the goddess of memories you shall be the one who helps mortal and immortals in recalling their past and all events that have occurred. You have this domain the altering of your memories by Hera.
As the goddess of competitions you shall, with Nike, decide the winners and losers of competitions, events etc. You acquired this domain due to... because we wanted to.
"Wow." "I know right." "Never use that voice again." Aphrodite proceeded to stick her tongue out at her before speaking. "Your duties are specific to you and should come naturally as you do them." "If your going to be my godly mentor for the next two years how come we covered everything in a day?"
"In those two years you're going to mess up, a lot, so we, the mentors, are here to give you needed guidance." "Me, mess up?" "Yes, a lot. Do you know the Trojan war?" "Of course." "Eros(Cupid) got a little fresh with his arrows with Paris and Helen." "Oh."
"Don't worry knowing you there won't be any problems and even such I'll be there," "Shopping?" "No helping you along the way." "Thanks mom. I love you." "I love you too. Now what are you still doing here you have duties to perform don't you? Go go go go go, move it."
