son of Ophion: He can use the mist and magic to change his appearance and body.
NOTICE: I am not Rick Riordan nor do I own any of his characters, I only own the plot.
Poseidon POV
Camp Jupiter
Flashing hundreds of demigods across thousands of miles was EXTREMELY draining. I had to eat several pieces of ambrosia to keep going. The last of the demigods was finally teleported to Camp Half-blood.
"Is that all of them?" I asked.
"I think so." Hestia said.
Hestia summoned more ambrosia for us. Nico and Hazel knocked out from being too tired and we used the last of our energy to teleport them to Olympus. Hermes ran over there, his face red, and sweat pouring down his face.
"Here Hermes, eat some ambrosia." Hestia said as she handed it to him.
Hermes snatched the godly food and ate it greedily. Then when he realized what he had done, he apologized for his rude manners.
"No harm done." Hestia replied.
"I think I will go back to rest in my palace." I said.
"Agreed." Hestia and Hermes said simultaneously.
We all flashed back to our respective palaces on Olympus.
Jason POV
Camp Half-blood: Training Arena
"No Matthew! Raise your sword to form an arc, keep your shield arm up, that way you're ready for an attack." I instructed.
He did as I said, and his sparing partner charged at him with his spear and tried to knock the sword out of his hand. He raised his shield to block, then thrusted the sword forward, stopping the blade just at his chest. He had won.
"Good job Matthew, Aaron, you might want to try out a shield for defense, you can't just go all in with a spear using both hands and no way of defending yourself." I explained.
"NEXT GROUP!" I yelled.
Chiron POV
Archery Range
Lisa, one of my newest students, still was having trouble getting her stance right and hitting the target. I went up to her and corrected her stance.
"Concentrate on the target, measure the wind speed, and let your arrow fly." I said.
She concentrated hard, the was a slight breeze flowing to the left, knowing that this would cause her arrow to stray to the left. She aimed a little right from the bullseye and the arrow flew and hit the bullseye.
"Amazing work Lisa! Keep practicing that stance and shot!" I praised.
Artemis POV
Camp Half-blood: campsite in the forest
I just got back from the meeting and flashed towards my hunter's camp. I went to the armory and called all my hunters here. All of them came almost immediately.
"Yes, my lady?" Thalia asked.
"I have just been informed that there is an upcoming war, the titans and giants are allying themselves against us once again." I explained.
"What would you have us do to help?" she asked once again.
"I would like 13 hunters to craft and sharpen 500 arrows. I want 5 hunters on patrol 24/7 around the camp. The rest of you, cook dinner, and get back to your regular duties. You can switch tasks every now and then." I ordered.
"Of course my lady, we will get to it right away." Phoebe responded.
I went into my tent and created a mist and threw a golden drachma into the mist.
"Who would you like to contact my lady?" Iris said through the mist.
"Show me Percy Jackson, probably at his campsite in one of the forests of Camp Half-blood." I said.
"My lady, if you like Percy, you don't have to hide it." Iris said.
"You will not tell me what to do, show me him now!" I demanded as I slammed my fist on my makeshift desk.
"Only a suggestion my lady." Iris said.
An image of Percy tending to a fire shimmered into view.
"Percy." I said, he didn't hear me.
"Percy." I tried once again, no response."
"PERCY!" I yelled and he jumped out off of his log.
"Artemis! Is there something wrong?" he said shocked and surprised.
"The was just a war council, Zeus has given everyone a task to do to prepare for this upcoming war." I replied. "The roman demigods have be flashed to Camp Half-blood, fortifications are being put up around the borders of camp and the magical borders are being strengthened little by little."
"Is that why I've been hearing shouting?" he asked.
"Wait, what kind of shouting, like are they fighting?" I asked.
"Well they sound angry, I don't know if weapons are drawn or not." he replied. "I could go check out whats going on right now if you want?"
"Maybe just to stay on the safe side, we don't want the demigods killing each other before the war starts." I said.
"Okay, I will contact you as soon as I'm back." he said as he slashed through the mist.
I just went to lay on my mattress, maybe Iris was right, I can't hide my feelings forever. Aphrodite and my father will definitely find out soon. I can't stand the thought of Apollo killing Percy like he did with Orion by tricking me. No, that won't happen, Percy is stronger, and he's a primordial. Apollo can't do anything to hurt him, right?
Percy POV
I just ended my call with Artemis, my face was on fire and I was so nervous the entire time. How am I going to marry a man-hating maiden goddess. Zeus will surely have my head, primordial or not. I'm supposed to check out the shouting, and I am just nearing the edge of the forests. I can see the demigods, swords, spears, bows are drawn. They were arguing about something. I was too far to hear anything. I came out into the open and jogged over to the group. Jason was trying the calm down the angry mob.
"ALL OF YOU LOWER YOUR WEAPONS NOW!" he ordered.
A few of the roman demigods lowered there weapons. The greeks were still wary, Chiron came trotting over in his centaur form.
"Please heroes! Lower your weapons, the gods will explain everything." Chiron said.
As if on cue, a bright golden flash appeared next to Jason, revealing Zeus.
"DEMIGODS! ALL OF YOU SHEATHE YOUR WEAPONS!" he yelled. "There is a reason for all of this. The titans and giants are once again allying themselves to strike against Olympus. We have brought you here because we have decided to station both camps here, and just maximize security as this will be our main base of operations."
"How are we going to defeat the titans and giants?" asked one greek.
"Chaos, the creator of the universe, has sent one to aid us in this fight. He is the assassin of Chaos, and the best swordsman and archer in the universe." Zeus said.
"Impossible, Chaos faded and no one is that strong." one of the romans said.
And that was my cue to step in.
"Nothing is impossible." I said, all eyes turned to me.
"How would you know?" a different roman said.
"Because I am the assassin of Chaos." I announced.
