Percy
It was a hectic event to run but it was all running smoothly with everyone working as a team, I guess you could call this team building on a large grand scale. Never before have I seen the Ares cabin help to build a shrine but they did without question. Now the sun has set the light from Apollo's candles lit the camp like a magnificent spiders web. The Harth was roaring bigger then I have ever seen. Which is amazing am sure Hestia appreciates it. Although everyone is happy I have a huge issue on my mind. I hope my dad has a plan as I cant leave my friends defenseless and be a god on a throne. I have to help.
I walk up behind the singing Apollo, he was singing a song I don't know, he was handing many candles to the campers while doing a little dance. I have to admit this is one of the best ideas in the history of ideas for a moral boost. I was about to turn when Apollo grabbed me and handed me a candle telling me to join the other campers and have fun. "Thanks," I say while smiling. He winked at me as I turned and followed the line of people heading to the shrine.
In the shrine was over one hundred candles already with lots of pictures, I placed my candle near a picture of Myself, Luke and Annabeth. It was taken after an intense work out with Chiron one afternoon before I went on the hunt for Zeus master bolt. Sighing I then leave the shrine for the next people. As I leave I notice a flash near the lake. I slowly make my way there and spot my dad. "Son," he says while giving me a quick embrace. "I have news from the council, come and walk with me"
I silently follow thinking of my impending doom. "Dad I don't expect them to understand my feelings but I need some time" my father smiles at me before rubbing his head
"Son they understand a little better now, we are giving you the option of becoming the god of demigods, water, family, and loyalty, this may even mean you could stay here as director once Apollo's punishment is lifted," my father says rather quickly in one big breath.
"What!. I mean really?"
my father nodded with a smile. He was rather happy with himself "And Hades has granted Sally and Paul Elysium when they pass, which you would one day see regardless if you was a god or not, as for your sibling you will not be grounded to camp you can visit him or her as it would fall under your domain of family OK?"
All the information I was now processing was all good but I couldn't speak. In fact, I felt overwhelmed. Seeing this my father helped me sit on the beach. "But why would they do this? I mean I understand Zeus a little, as he doesn't want to loose Apollo" I look back towards camp
"Well they all want you to join us for different reasons, Ares probably just to fight you, Artemis and Hestia both think you have done enough to become a god. Me I wanted you to work with me, but I'm willing to loose you to camp as I love you son and Apollo for obvious reasons although he doesn't know what was discussed so you can tell him tonight after the party which looks amazing by the way"
I stretched my legs on the sand and smiled "you going to stay a while? Apollo has loads of candles and thanks, dad feels a bit better now" I say slowly standing up.
"I suppose I could place a candle in the shrine but I will have to go after, so do you have an answer now for Zeus?" my father asked while walking back to camp.
"I shall send him a reply, I know he looooves my sarcastic nature" my father smirked before adding
"Be warned though he will make you god regardless for Apollo's sake, so just think" My father then walked me towards the singing sun god, who had a look on his face like he was panicking. Till his eyes rested on me. Then his whole body relaxed with a look of confusion.
Apollo
Its been thirty minutes since I saw him, where is that dam boyfriend of mine. I saw him enter the shrine but I got distracted by a little camper tugging on my shirt asking for a candle.
The people around me though were all happy and smiling till through the crowd started to move to the side, that's when I sensed another god. Looking up I see Poseidon and a happy Percy "Everyone can I have your attention" I shout loudly "Today's a special day looks like you have two gods at the party, everyone welcome Lord Poseidon" there was a lot of cheering and bowing Percy looked a tad uncomfortable but I'm, sure it was the comparing looks as all over you could here
"He's a carbon copy"
"There almost identical"
"Apollo there really was no need, although I could use a candle" Poseidon beamed. We both looked towards the Harth in amazement as it grew in height before changing color.
Hestia
"Oh my gods, the Harth...Would you just look at it!" I say excitedly while moving the hair from my face, the fire was changing color from a bright red and orange to yellow and blue "Zeus! if Poseidon can make the spirit rise to that level Imagen" Artemis began "Just this one time, and for a candle, only" Zeus spat interrupting before dismissing the council.
Percy
"Um Apollo, Dad, is that Ares, Artemis, and Aphrodite heading this way," I ask turning to face them. "Well, I must say I am shocked" muttered Poseidon. I was too as Artemis hates Aphrodite and well most of the gods had issues with Ares.
"Everyone seems we have more guests" just then all the Olympians appeared from behind cabins.
Everyone was shocked. I notice Hestia I run towards her and give her a hug "What's going on?" I whisper "Zeus was so happy with the effect on the Harth he allowed just this once for everyone to visit, just for a candle" she whispered back. She was in her child form so no one really knew it was her till she changed to fully grown woman.
"PLEASE WELCOME, ZEUS, HERA, POSEIDON, DEMETER, ATHENA, ARTEMIS, ARES, APHRODITE, HEPHAESTUS, HERMES, HESTIA AND OUR PAPER WORK MAN MR D OTHERWISE KNOWN AS DIONYSUS" Apollo shouted, there was a huge cheer while Apollo handed out candles. Some of the campers were blessed with a conversation with their godly parent which made there days, of that I am sure. "Father, do you think the parents of the injured could stop and say hi before you go?" I ask He nodded before talking to the others.
"Well, Perce today's been a blast" Apollo chimes. The gods stayed for forty-five minutes before saying there good byes to the campers. After another two hours, it was time to go to bed. The cleaning harpies would have been well fed am sure.
I walk close to Apollo on the way back to the big house "so I am guessing uncle p came for a reason? And Zeus hated all the positive feedback he received" he asked while grabbing my hand. "Yeah he did, not sure when all this is happening but I don't really have a choice, I'm going to be made a god" Apollo squeezed my hand "I'll not leave your side I promise, but there's more you hiding something" I smirk "Cant hide anything from you can I?" "nope" replied Apollo popping the 'p' "Dad has managed to convince the council that I be made the god of Demigods, water, family and loyalty meaning I may be able to stay here, the last part is still unknown" there was a small gasp "Really! Oh my gods Percy that's amazing and I'm sure we can make it work so you stay here or Camp Jupiter" Apollo nearly squeaked. "Have you gave your answer?" I snigger "Think I shall let your dad sweat a little first besides I need time to think of a sarcastic response" Apollo opened the door to our room and dragged me inside before closing the door and pinning me against it. "I love your sarcasm" he says before pressing his lips on mine.
The room began to spin due to lack of oxygen I forced a breath and a returned as much passion into the kiss. Apollo moved his hands down my body leaving a tingle where his touch brushed and lifted me from my waist. I wrapped my legs around his waist, not leaving his lips. Then I felt his tongue invading my mouth. Still, against the door, the thought of been trapped like this turned me on. Eventually, Apollo walked towards the bed throwing me onto the bed. "The fun begins when you're a god ok?" I nod not really ready for loosing my virtue just yet. But that didn't stop Apollo kissing me through the night. I soon fell asleep in his arms, somehow I ended up in my pj's but not sure how. Sleep found me quickly tonight.
Apollo
It was four fifty in the morning and I knew it was getting close for me to go and wake up the sun. I used the mist to turn on the side lamp so I can watch my lover sleep. He looked so happy now but I noticed the wet patch on his pillow. At some point, he cried when I am not sure. He didn't make a sound. Percy was still the only sound was his shallow breathing. I slowly laid next to him and ensured he was tucked in. Slowly Percy opened his eyes. Dam I woke him. I curse to myself. "Hey beautiful," I say really low so not to startle him.
"Morning Pollo" came a sleepy reply. Percy stretched before rolling over and climbing on top of my chest.
"Hey, don't get too relaxed I have to in a minute" I chuckle while I embrace the one person I love the closest.
"Promise me something"
"Anything Percy," I say before kissing his fore head.
"Wake me every morning before you go"
I laugh "Why, you look adorable when your asleep, or should I say adorkable"
Percy rolled his eyes. "did you just roll your eyes at me sunshine?" I ask playfully.
"Maybe!" came the reply. Before I could respond he continued " I want you to wake me so I can do this" with that he pulled me into a warm passionate kiss.
The kiss lasted what felt like seconds but I jumped as I heard Artemis. Every morning she would say when she was getting ready to approach. It was my warning to get my ass to the chariot. "Ok Ok, I really have to go I'm late" I say before dispersing
