Percy's POV
I had to tell somebody, and it couldn't be Annabeth. So I chose my bros Jason and Frank.
'Hey Jason and Frank, can I talk to you for a second?' I called. They nodded, and we walked over to the lake.
'I have an issue, but it might be easier to show then explain,' I said. They looked on with curious expressions as I drew my sword. I made a small cut on my arm, and I watched as their faces turned from curiosity to amazement.
'Hhhow,' Jason stuttered, I went on to explain my dream and my situation. We didn't actually skip breakfast, we used the camp plates to get food. We organized places and times where we could go to help me get used to my godly powers.
We had enough time before class, so we started on my shapeshifting abilities. I managed to change into aquatic type animals, but no others. We were almost late for potions. Potions was so easy. I did mine in record time, and I helped Jason and Frank do theirs.
The 3 of us got top of the class, even better than all of the Slytherins. We muddled through classes until break. At break we snuck off and used Harry's map to find an unoccupied classroom. We started with the teleporting thing that gods do. I managed to not run into anyone, but it was very hard to control.
We also came up with a list of things I could be the god of. About 7 minutes before the next class a note appeared, it said
Perseus Jackson
God of Heroes and Stupid Sledding Tricks
'God of heroes, that's a pretty big honor,' said Jason 'but the stupid sledding tricks.' I told them how I prayed to the god of stupid sledding tricks when I was running from the gorgon sisters. They thought it was hilarious that I ended up praying to myself.
They sacrificed some food to me just to see what it would be like. It made my body feel warm and fuzzy inside, I could see why the gods liked it. It also made me feel powerful. We left for History of Magic and the other demigods were shooting us questioning glances.
'We were planning strategies for capture the flag,' explained Jason. History of magic was boring as dirt. So I played around with water the class, being a god meant that it didn't drain me at all.
Jason's POV
I couldn't believe my bro was a god, a freaking god. At lunch I decided to mess with him, so when I burnt my food I said 'Zeus, Hecate, and Percy.' He turned and said 'really Jason, I am so going to get you back.'
The next free period we spent with the group, but Percy still managed to get in some practice. He started on the annoying talking in your head thing that gods do. I spared with Draco and Percy kept saying things in my head like 'duck grace, do you like ducks' and 'Jassssooooonnnnn hold your sword higher'. Annoying right, though I still managed to beat Draco.
I had a newfound respect for Percy, he turned down immortality once but still ended up getting it. He also told us about his dilemma with Annabeth. He felt that she had had too many decisions made for her and that she deserved to be able to make this one herself.
We had created a plan to see if Annabeth would choose being a god. We had a week to wait because he wanted to do it on the weekend, but he needed to do it before their wedding. Which was over winter break.
-This-Line-Break-Is-Dedicated-To-Luke-
(skip forward to weekend)
We had decided that this weekend would be a "mortal" weekend. So we did mortal activities like soccer and football. The girls went shopping while the boys played video games. When it got late we played truth or dare. That is when our plan unfolded.
P-Piper truth or dare
Pi-Dare
P-Charmspeak Leo into jumping off the side of the Argo
Pi-Ok (Leo takes a dive) Jason carry Percy 100 feet into the sky and drop him into the lake
J-You didn't ask truth or dare, but okay (picks up Percy and drops him) Annabeth truth or dare
A-I'll do truth
J-If Percy was made a god for some unknown reason, if you had the offer would you become a goddess
Pi-Good one Sparky
A-Yes
The night continued like that and I could tell that Percy was pumped that she said yes. In the morning Mcgonagall announced that we couldn't stay in the Argo any longer. All of the demigods protested, but she cut them off saying that we needed to experience Hogwarts as best as we could.
We had to pack up today since the Argo had to go back early because it needed to be prepared for an event. After we were packed Percy got Annabeth, Frank, and I. He led us to an empty classroom and said 'Annabeth, I am sorry we kept secrets from you but I hope you will understand they were necessary. I will show you something then I will explain.'
He took out Riptide and cut a small gash in his arm. We watched the golden fluid drip out in silence.
'My dad came in dream to me about a week ago. He said that my mortal body couldn't handle the amount of power I had. He gave me a choice, either become a god, or explode in a wave of godly essence that would vaporise Hogwarts and all who were in it. Of course I asked about you, and he told me that you would become a goddess as soon as I told you. I couldn't make that decision for you, I also couldn't tell you so I asked Jason and Frank to help me. We came up with the truth or dare so we could get an answer without making you immortal. Over the last week when we have been so called strategizing we have been working on my godly powers.'
'Can I?' Annabeth asked gesturing to Riptide, he nodded and she cut a small cut on her arm. The wound started out bleeding red then it turned gold and it healed. It didn't leave a scar either.
'Thank you' she said 'for what' Percy asked, 'for being so selfless' she said. He smiled as she hugged him. 'So how do we tell the others,' I asked. Percy groaned while the rest of us shrugged.
'We discovered something about Hermione, she has dyed brown hair and contacts for dyslexia' said Annabeth. 'So you think she is a demigod child of Athena,' Frank asked, she nodded.
Leo ran in and said 'Hermione just got claimed, we need help explaining.' We ran after him to the room of requirement where the golden trio was waiting. 'First off we will be explaining, but only to Hermione,' said Annabeth.
The trio protested, but realized that we wouldn't give in. Harry and Ron left, so only Hermione was left. 'Ask your questions,' Jason said.
He-Who are you
A-We are demigods, children of the greek gods
He-Greek gods are real?
P-Isn't that what she just said
He-Who are all of your parents
P-Poseidon
Ha-Pluto by the way there are Roman, Norse, and Egyptian gods too
This continued and Hermione understood that we had to keep this secret. She couldn't even tell Harry and Ron. Once she heard our story she apologized profusely for what happened with the truth potion. We assured her that it was fine, then we went to the headmasters office and explained the situation.
Mcgonagall insisted that Hermione joined SPQR. And since we had to stay in Hogwarts, she would stay in the Gryffindor commons with us. Once she got over her suspicion she was a lot like me. I hope this doesn't affect her friendship with Harry and Ron
