Chapter 9:

The rest of the Olympians there stared at the spot Hera disappeared. Zeus roared and slammed his Master Bolt on the ground. Everyone who was still there cringed at the furious blow.

"I'll go find Perasa then." Hermes said and ran away.

"Where did that girl Perasa go anyways?" Hera asked as she looked for Perasa to no avail.

"She left when Are and Apollo did, she probably went to take a shower or something." Artemis shrugged.

"Quick, one of you girls must go reach Perasa; she may be in trouble because Hera is a quick planner." Zeus ordered.

"I will go Father." Artemis said as she got up.

Zeus nodded at her and in a flash, she teleported to wherever Perasa was.

"Wait, we could teleport to Perasa, so why did Hermes run instead?" Athena asked in realization.

Demeter snorted as she summoned to eat, "Idiot got caught up in the moment."

"Father, what shall we do? Perasa is now in danger and we can't stay at camp because of the Ancient Laws." Dionysus said worryingly.

"We will hold a council meeting on what to do now." Zeus decided.

Athena mused in her thoughts, how Perasa changed so many people for the better without knowing it herself. She was brought out of her thoughts when an explosion happened in the middle of camp.

The Olympians rushed to the place the explosion happened and saw an unharmed, irritated Perasa, a guilty-looking Hermes, and an annoyed Artemis.

"What happened? Is everyone ok?" Zeus asked worriedly.

"Nothing, Hermes here knocked over a chemical that I was going to use, it was a harmless explosion so nobody should be hurt." Perasa huffed.

"Are the others potions you made ok Perasa?" Artemis asked concerned.

"You made potions in such a short time?" Athena said incredulously.

"Uh, yeah, I was pretty good in chemistry and made some stuff in school, some got me kicked out since I burned a school to the ground." Perasa said embarrassed.

"I doubt it, you are an idiot after all." a snobby voice said.

They turned to see an Annabeth who looked disgusted. She went up to Perasa and slapped her face. Perasa's eyes widened as she placed a hand on her red cheek.

"Annabeth!" Athena gasped in horror.

"What Mother? I'm just hitting the disgusting little girl here." Annabeth asked irritated.

"She is not disgusting, she's great! You are the disgusting little girl here!" a voice said.

A portal appeared in between the Olympians and the two demigods. Apollo, Ares, and Hecate came out of the portal before it disappeared.

"What are you talking about Hecate? Perasa is a disgusting cross dresser, why shouldn't you be disgusted?" Annabeth snorted.

"You're jealous, Perasa is more beautiful, powerful, and is way smarter than you. You just want her dead because even your mother pays more attention to her and not to you." Hecate snarled.

Annabeth growled at Hecate, "I'll get you Hecate, mark my words. Perasa shouldn't be alive in the first place; she should've died when she was 3 years old! Someone saved her and ruined the plans my master made!"

Another portal appeared and a cloaked man came out, grabbed Annabeth, and pulled her in. Once they were completely inside, the portal disappeared.

"We will track her down later, Hecate, why are you here?" Zeus asked.

Hecate nodded and turned to Perasa, held out a hand, and hoist her up.

"Perasa I'm impressed by your knowledge of potions, when the school for went in burned down, I assumed it was one of my children, but I guess I was mistaken." Hecate admitted.

"Uh, it was an accident, so I'm not really that good with potions." Perasa denied.

"Nonsense, you are a master at it, but I think you can take it to a whole new level, so I want to give you some things." Hecate insisted.

"No no, I'm good Lady Hecate." Percy argued.

"I insist, I want to give you this waist bag for your potions, the space is unlimited so you can put as many as you want. Just think about the potion you want and it will appear in your hands once you take it out your bag." Hecate said as she pulled out a small bag with a leather belt so Perasa could strap it on her waist.

"And I also want you to receive my blessing; it will allow you to make more complicated potions then your level now." Hecate said and automatically blessed Perasa before she could protest.

When the blessing settled in Perasa she opened her eyes and everyone saw some purple glitter in her sea green eyes.

"Beautiful." Hecate whispered in awe.

"Hecate! What did you do to Perasa!" a voice called out from behind her and before anyone knew what happened, Perasa was tackled by a blur.
