Chapter 7- The longest battle
I was in complete darkness as I was racing through the black fog that surrounded Typhon's body. I was afraid of what he might look like and I realized that I couldn't beat a titan alone. I slashed through the fog and eventually hit his body making him roar.
I shouldn't have ran in the fog because at that moment my muscles began to droop and I remembered that's what the fog does. The fog eats away your muscle and eventually kills you.
Of course I wouldn't die until the fog's power reached my weak spot but my muscles still were weakening. I ran. I ran and ran and ran right out of the black fog before the fog got to my weak spot. I wondered if my weak spot would have a name too like Achillies tendon maybe the part on my back would later be called Percy's whatever.
I didn't think of this for long however because I pulled out one of my drachmas and messaged my mom right before Typhon started walking towards me.
"Percy is the OH MY ZUES!" My mom screamed looking at Typhon behind me.
"Mom, no time to talk grab medusa's head and ride over on Blackjack, im by the underworld entrance, HURRY!"
I watched my mom go and get the head and then get In her car to go to Camp Half Blood and get Blackjack before her image faded, though I wasn't really interested in her I was more preoccupied with the giant Titan behind me.
I knew I had to get to the water, if anywhere, I could maybe get my dad and have him help, why would the other Olympians help me. Hadez was mad at me for stealing his son's glory, Ares well you know that story, Athena hated me for being friends with Annabeth, Dionysus was busy with camp, and don't even get me started on Zues.
I realized the only gods that would help me were my dad, Apollo, maybe Hermes although he was mad at me for his son's death, and Aphrodite who is absolutely no help against a Titan.
I reached the best place, the pacific ocean, and the Titan was still behind me, but everything seemed to slow down as the ground began to open up in front of me.
"Typhon come here!" I said motioning in front of me where a huge hole was. He stared at me then charged. He fell in the hole but the hole wasn't big enough for his whole body so his head still stuck out.
I heard a screech and I looked up, my mom was flying on my Pegasus and she was carrying a bag around her shoulder. She landed Blackjack on the ground and gave the back to me nodding and smiling at Typhons screeching head.
I knew what to do, I unraveled the bag carefully and I saw my mom look in horror as the eyes looked into hers. I screamed. Medusa's eyes weren't covered in the bag, the fabric we put over her eyes slid off and now my mom was stone.
I showed Typhon the head and watched him turn to stone and after that, I cut up medusas head with Riptide and threw the pieces with Typhon.
I cried in front of my stone mom, she was still alive I knew and it was better if she was dead and movable than alive and immovable so I smashed her and threw her stone pieces in the ocean for my dad. I would ask Nico to talk to my mom. Until then, I had bigger problems; I still had to find out who bewitched the flag. But I knew who it was.
I rode on Blackjack back to Camp and found out that Annabeth got all of the kids out of the desert and put them back in camp.
"Ah here is the hero of us all!" Chiron called as I landed Blackjack on the earth.
Everyone around me cheered and I smiled as Annabeth ran out and hugged me.
"I was so afraid that you were dead, wheres Typhon?"
"In the bottom of a pit turned to stone, same with my mom." I told her what happened and she gasped.
"Are you serious! Your mom, I'm so sorry Percy."
"Don't be, I'll see her soon with Nico you know." I said and she nodded.
"Where is Clarrise?" I asked through the crowd and she stepped out of it and looked shaken and depressed that I was still alive.
"You bewitched the flag, you set Typhon free, I have proof too, right after you left, I had a vision of Typhon emerging from Tartarus, you did it all."
She ran towards the woods but I was faster I ran for her and she turned around backing up from me. The flag was 2 feet from her if she backed up into it, she would be sent to the desert. She touched it and vanished, then, an arrow hit it and broke it in two.
I returned to the center of the crowd and stood next to Annabeth, Grover came running into the middle also and hugged me then lightly punched me in the ribs.
"Percy Jackson saves Olympus and Camp half Blood twice each." Chiron called out but I stopped him.
"No Chiron, I always have had help, in getting the fleece I had help, in saving Olympus the first time I had a lot of help, this time I saved both at the same time, with some help." I said thinking of my mom and Medusa's head.
"Don't be so modest Percy seriously, it's okay, you saved the world and everything." She said but her next words were drowned out by a loud chant.
"KISS KISS KISS!" The chant rang out into our eardrums and both of our faces got red but in the end, we kissed.
They cheered and I walked back to my cabin knowing that Luke's body was somewhere and that Clarrisse was still at large, this was not the end. This was the beginning of the second prophecy.
