First off, I want to apologise for this HUGE delay. I know all of you know are probably really pissed off at me (understatement of the century). The delay was that fanfiction had put my account through some 'maintenance' or something so I couldn't upload any chapters.
Sorry once again!
Third person POV
Everyone was shocked. They all believed that if Percy was alive then he would be the Commander since he had almost everything the other heroes had done.
"He is in his cabin,"Percy replied to the trooper's question. He looked around the pavilion as if trying to remember the last time he was here. He faced the head table and saw all the gods. He raised an eyebrow.
"So, you guys finally learnt your lessons did you?" Percy asked the gods while smirking. Thalia looked up from his arms with a raised eyebrow as if to say Just got here and already annoying the gods, well done!
"What do you mean Percy?" asked Athena.
"Well Mum, what I am trying to say that is in the Second Titan War, Kronos got a lot of allies because the demigods felt ignored by their parents. You made the same mistake in the Third Titan War. Now we are at the Fourth Titan War and you have finally learnt from your mistakes. Nice work!" Percy replied. He had his trademark grin on his face that showed he was having way too much fun.
"Wait, the Third Titan War? When did that happen? I thought that was happening right now!" said one of the Poseidon campers.
"Well brother" - the camper beamed at him - "the reason the gods don't mention the 3rd Titan War was because they almost lost the war. Most the troops were injured and the Titans were doing fairly good. This was when the Elite of Chaos intervened and changed the tides of the war. Soon the gods won." Percy explained. At the ending he glared at the gods, as if it was their fault for what ever happened.
Everyone was digesting the news they had just heard. You could almost see the gears turning in the Athena children's heads as if trying to work out a hidden meaning in Percy's words. A voice from behind Percy brought everyone back to Earth.
"Yes that story is true but some details have been left out. After the war was won, a traitor told the gods that they almost lost the war because of a spy who was giving away crucial information. The traitor told them that the spy's name was Shane Knight, a son of poseidon. The gods, like always, acted without thinking and banished Shane. What they didn't know was that the traitor was the real spy and Shane was innocent." the person said.
"I remember Shane. Nice kid." Connor said.
"Yeah, I never believed that he was the traitor," Nico said.
"What it does matter to you about Shane? The gods realised their mistake" asked Annabeth.
"What I find interesting is that this mistake happened twice and both times it was the sons of Poseidon."Said the person. He stepped out from behind Percy and stood next to Percy."Don't you think that it is too coincidental, Lord Poseidon?" he asked looking at Poseidon.
"Whatever it doesn't matter what happened to the Poseidon brat. He disappeared just like Percy." said Ares. The stranger just chuckled and looked at Ares.
"You just gave the first clue. Think Ares, think. Use that puny brain of yours." The stranger taunted. Ares moved his hand towards his sword but Aphrodite stopped him and glared at the stranger. He just glared back.
Everyone was trying to figure out what the stranger meant by his words when suddenly a Poseidon camper gasped.
"You're Shane?" she asked.
"Wow, a Poseidon child gets it right before everyone else. What do you have to say about that Mum?" The strange said. (From now on, I'll refer to the stranger as Shane)
"Yes, I am Shane and I am the Commander for the troopers," Shane said."You know, if you looked closely, Percy and I do look alike!"
Everyone gasped.
"Ok! This is too much information for today. Meeting dismissed!" Poseidon said and marched out of the pavilion with the rest of the gods following. After a bit of waiting, all the campers and troopers went to their cabins as well. In the end, only Percy, Shane, Thalia (who still hadn't let go off Percy) and the Poseidon Cabin were left in the pavilion.
The campers were still staring at Percy and Shane in awe.
"umm, guys...are you alright?" Percy asked, waving his hand in front of them.
"Of course we are! We just had two of our lost brothers returned to us! You two are legends are in the Poseidon cabin. Did you know that many of the campfire stories are Percy's adventures!" said one of them. Percy blushed.
"ooohh look, the Almighty Percy Jackson is blushing," teased Shane. Everyone chuckled.
"Hey! Stop annoying my best friend!" Thalia said.
"Thank you Thals," Percy said and kissed her forehead. Thalia blushed.
"Percy!" Thalia exclaimed.
"What? It was just a kiss!" Percy said.
"It was not! It was brotherly affection! I don't want brotherly affection. I want friendly affection!" Thalia said and kissed his cheek. "Like that."
"Thalia, is that your oh-not-so subtle way of saying that you like me?" said Percy, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. Thalia blushed and slapped his arm with a little jolt of electricity. Percy 'owwed' and Thalia stuck her tongue at him and then went back to hugging him. Percy put his arms around her.
"Aah, what a perfect couple!" said one of the Poseidon girl's with a dreamy look in her eye.
Everyone laughed and Percy and Thalia blushed. Again.
"Guys go to your cabin. We'll visit you later on." said Percy. The campers nodded and went off to their cabin.
Liked it or not? This was more of a filler chapter and a start of (maybe) Perlia. I know it's not that great but this is like a starter for the next bits.
