Not many people believed me before they saw the hole in the ground. I mean, I probably wouldn't either, but they should have kept an open mind.
Anyway we tried to prepare the camp for the coming battle. I think I can probably take the army, but it doesn't hurt to make sure.
We heard voices extremely close to the hole. We were ready for a surprise attack. When I saw the first head come out of it, I attacked. I only just managed to stop my swing in time.
"P-Percy?" asked Frank Zhang, praetor of Camp Jupiter (I bet that you didn't see that coming).
"Frank?"
It turned out that the Roman Camp also got immortality. It also turned out that Reyna and Octavian were killed in a fight, which I was happy and sad about (happy about Octavian, sad about Reyna). So Jason took the second spot as praetor.
Everyone from the Prophecy of Seven had gone back to Camp Jupiter, except for Annabeth and I.
"So you may rival my power?" asked Jason, grinning as I told them my story.
I grinned. It was good to see them again. Then I heard a conch horn and my expression changed.
"I guess you're about to see," I said. "Let's play a game. I'll fight them all by myself and you guys will watch."
"Are you -" Hazel was cut off.
"Sure," I said. "Yes, very sure."
I walked up to the army of maybe 10,000 and created an invisible barrier between the onlookers and I. Before the army knew it, I was on top of them.
Once more, it was fairly easy. It probably took me five minutes to kill all of the monsters. Then, I saw a big figure in the distance. Koios.
"Hello old chap," I said, remembering when I saw him while getting away in Tartarus. "I thought that Bob and Damasen destroyed you."
His expression turned angry. "No, not those traitors, the tiger did! It was so ferocious, I could-"
"Yeah," I said. "That is actually kind of funny because I remember that "ferocious creature" actually being a kitten. If that's so, a mighty Titan was defeated by a cat. How amazing," I said, emphasizing the sarcasm.
He glared at me and charged. Wow, the oldest trick in the book. I sidestepped and jabbed him in the gludius maximus straight through his body. That was when I realized that I was tricked. Koios was just a distraction. Verizon came up from behind me and hit me into the shield barrier about one hundred yards away from him. It hurt, but I got back up.
"How long did you honestly think I'd be out of commission?" he asked, while mocking what Chaos said to me after our last battle. I got so angry that the ground around there was a crater and electricity flowed through it. I also had a hurricane around me. But just not any hurricane. There was the Poseidon one, yes, but there was also a Chaos one. The universe showed in it and every gods' power did to. Even Aphrodite, though I wasn't sure what the love heart could do for me.
I looked at him with absolute hatred while the sky darkened and it actually started to rain at Camp Half-Blood. I charged Verizon and plunged my sword straight through him. Then again, he melted into another person. Nyx, the Primordal.
"Aw, come on!" I yelled.
"The placebo effect didn't work on you," she said as she turned to dust.
Okay well that was annoying. Right when I thought that this would be over and poof. A wild Nyx appeared. Stupid Primordals. Anyway, the gods said that we should go to Olympus for a meeting. Unfortunately, I had to go.
Up at Olympus, Poseidon glared at me. It was probably not for making him king of the gods. I was kind of happy though. He was the only being I never forgave, especially because he was my father and obviously picked favorites.
"So," said Hades. "The council has decided to put Perseus Jackson under trial for aiding Verizon and the Primordals."
I sighed. "Not this again."
Hades looked at me sympathetically. "Many of the gods think that because you killed Zeus, you could be a traitor. Soooooo, the majority of the council has decided to kill you."
With that, all of the Olympians who hated me threw their weapons at me. I deflected all of their weapons back at them and I may have accidentally sent the traitors to Tartarus.
"Sorry," I said to Hades. "I will help you fill in your ranks later, but right now we have a war to fight. The only guy we have to worry about is Verizon, so I'm going to need all of the help I can get to fight him."
"O-Of course, Telos," said Hades.
I looked at the remaining Olympians. Only Apollo, Artemis, Hermes, Hestia, and Hades remained.
