Sheesh you guys were all were upset over the last chapter, but 27 reviews is amazing. . For the record I have to say one thing. Are you all nuts? Naruko will return. Anyway, here is the next chapter. Hope you all enjoy it.
Percy Jackson was wondering when did his life become something out of a video game. It all started when he was on a field trip. Mrs. Dodds had taken him aside after Nancy had gotten soaked. Mrs. Dodds was his pre-algebra teacher until she became a fury, which Percy killed with a click pen turned bronze sword that his Latin teacher tossed at him. By luck, he was able to kill the monster, only to have the whole school forget about Mrs. Dodds and a new teacher take her place. After mounths of wondering if he was insane, Percy was able to get Grover to squeal... Just a bit.
After telling his friend about the three old ladies at the fruit stand cutting the tread, Grover freaked Percy out by talking about the six grade and how they never seemed to survive after that. So Percy ditched him and went home. He's younger adopted brother was ecstatic to see him, which lifted Percy's sprits after the scare Grover gave him. Smelly Gabe tried to stop the breach trip that Sally planned, but she was able to convince him that everything would be ok.
As if.
In the middle of the night, Grover was at the beach, pounding on the door. Naruto was asleep and Percy was stuck carrying him to the car as his mother was scared. Grover, who happened to be half goat, was no help at all. Then, of course, some egoistical airhead that spent to much time thinking about his two favorite tools then to think logically blamed him and/or Naruto as thieves for stealing his boom stick.
No, not that one as Hera would have mixed feeling if that stick went bye-bye.
...Moving on. Soon after the quest began the bus blew up leaving the group on foot. And thanks to his stomach and Annabeth's, instead of being feed, they almost became monster chow to Medusa. They were able to get tickets for turning a dog in that had a pink bow, only to hear the lady calling for it to come back as it ran away as soon as they were out of sight but not up of ear shot.
Annabeth was excited to see the Arch, spewing out every fact and detail that she had in her memory to Percy and Grover as they rode up the elevator to the top. Of course, Percy had to to trapped on the top floor with the mother of all monsters, the terrible ant eater Echidna. Let it be know that she hates the land down under for naming that ant eater after her. Even if it had western ideals, it was too far away for her to have her revenge Percy hoped.
In another life, Percy would of had been over whelmed by her son, the Chimera, attacks. He would of had been forced to to choose to jump and possibly be killed by the height or be roosted. But this was not that life. In this one, Percy while not the brightest tool in the shed, was forced to think on his feet because of his brother. And that meant thinking ahead and being prepared for nearly anything.
The two monsters were lacking of information. After all, he was a fresh demigod that was barely trained that did poorly in school. They thought nothing of the spheres that he rolled around on the floor. Until he asked them if they knew what happens when Sodium and Potassium got wet.
They were blown away with the fact that when wet, they react violently when gotten wet. Mixed with Celestial bronze dust that he collected from forges at camp, Percy was able to mixed the bronze, sodium and potassium dust together in a matter that if it got wet at all, the resulting explosion would injure, blind, and cripple monster's senses momentary. The chances of killing a monster was low, but Percy was hoping to change that with a later batch. Percy was able to thrust his sword though the head of the Chimera, thus killing it while it was stunned. He was forced to flee by jumping out the hole in the wall to escape it's mother's rage for him killing her son and burning of a side of her face.
When Percy told Grover and Annabeth what happened, the daughter of Athena spent the next several minutes muttering to herself things like, "I thought he an idiot." Things like that as she slammed her head multiple times against the window. Grover was happy that Percy survived. The spoil for killing the monster Percy lost, which was upsetting, but at least he got an location of where to go when they got to California.
Then they had to work for Ares to get his shield back. It took all of Percy's will power not to shove his balls of bronze, sodium and potassium down the god's throat after the god of war complemented his brother while at the same time insulting him. It was worth blowing up the cupid statutes that were recording them after they survived the trap.
After being in the hotel of the locust eaters and seeing Annabeth and Grover grow a bit, the trio went to the under world. Where Grover was nearly killed by the shoes that Luke gave to Percy whom he himself gave to Grover.
Now here he was with Annabeth and Grover, about to meet the lord of the under world. Hades.
"Ready?" Percy asked as he looked at the skeleton guards that were guarding the doors to the throne room.
Grover nodded and Annabeth shook her head. "We are about to confront a god who is the oldest of the brothers to see if he will return the bolt to his brother while trying to stop a war. Which the owner of the bolt thinks you stole. Are you ready?"
Percy rolled his eyes. "Yeah."
The trio walked up to the door. However, before they could ask to enter, Grover pushed the two demigods down as the doors flew open and a giant flower pot flew though the spot where their heads were moments ago. Strings of Greek curses and shouting, that the trio didn't hear before entered the hall. Looking up, Percy saw a man with pale skin and black hair dodging and blasting pots with shadows on one side of the room who could only be Hades. On the other side was a lady that had fair skin and light brown hair throwing pots and using plants to protect herself from the blasts of shadows. 'Why is Persephone here fighting her husband?' Percy thought as last he check it was summer.
As they watched, three forms landed next to them. Grover whimpered as the Furies looked at the fighting and the demigods. Annabeth clutch her dagger and Percy took out his pen as the Furies started at the chaos in the throne room. "You three better wait until they cool down." One of the Furies spoke as she used her whip to block a blast of shadow that came towards the group.
"But we need to see-" Annabeth began before being cut off.
"Listen demigod. Those two have been at it sense Friday night ever sense the spawn of the sea here brother got claimed."
Percy looked at the fury. "Naruto was claimed? Who claimed him?"
The furies looked at him. The one who had yet to speak turned into Ms. Dodds. "Percy Jackson, the reason that those two are fighting is because of you brother."
Grover's and Annabeth's eyes widened. "Naruto is the son of Hades?" Grover asked.
Ms. Dodds snorted. "No you idiot. He is the son of the queen of the underworld." The questing member's jaws dropped.
One of the unnamed furies spoke next. "He is also apparently the son of the queens of the other big three as well."
"But-but-but." Annabeth stuttered as her brain tried to understand. Grover fainted and Percy gawked his math teacher. "How?"
The furies looked at each other then back to the group. "We don't know." An explosion rocked the hall and the furies cursed. "We have to make sure everything is OK. Wait here and do not enter until they cool off." Before they group could answer, the furies dissipated into the shadows.
After a few minutes of watch the two immortals attack each other, Percy had enough. Knowing that it was stupid and risky, he took out two of his mixtures and rolled each one to a immortal. Seeing what he was going to do all Grover and Annabeth could do was think and pray that Percy wasn't going to die. As soon as they were close enough, Percy used his powers to condense the water vapor in the room around the spheres.
Bang
"WHO DARES!?" Roared Hades as he and his wife turned towards the hallway, form flickering. Percy gulped as the two immortals towered over him. 'At least they stopped fighting,' He thought as he bowed. Hades and Persephone looked at the bowing demigods and calmed down a fraction. "Nephew, great niece, satyr... why have you come to my domain." Hades growled out as he walked to his throne, his wife doing the same. After sitting down, he looked at the forms of Percy, Annabeth, and Grover.
Percy licked his lips. "lord and Uncle, lady Persephone," He began. "Umm, I come here with two requests."
"Oh? And what are they?" Persephone asked with an edge to her voice. Hades's eyes narrowed.
"Ah, er, look a war between the gods would be bad."
"Really bad," Grover add helpfully. Annabeth groaned as the immortals eye's narrowed further, causing Grover to baa in fear.
"Are you telling me demigod, that I am the reason that my brothers are about to start a civil war?"
Something in Hades's voice sent warning bells ringing in Percy's mind. But his ADHD won out and he blurted, "Um, but didn't you steal the master bolt?"
Percy yipped as a blast of shadow landed next to him, obliterating the stones there. "How dare you keep up this pretense boy, after what you have done?"
"HADES!" Persephone snapped at her husband.
"Um, lord Hades, what has Percy done?" The lord of the underworld looked at the daughter of his niece. "And what do you mean after what he has done?"
The walls of the place shook as the god bellowed out "DO YOU THINK I WISH A WAR!?"
Before the trio could answer Persephone shook her head, letting them know it would be a mistake to answer. Hades started to moan and cry as he started up talking about all the problems in the underworld. Everyone in the room sweat dropped, including the skeletons, as he curled into a ball muttering over and over one about all the paperwork he had to do and more.
Shaking her head, Persephone looked at the demigods and satyr. "Understand this young ones. My husband has the hardest job compared to his brothers. Posiden comes second, but he is able to take breaks. My husband has little time for pleasure and the number of mortals has increased, thus increasing his work load. A war would only drive him more insane then anything else."
"But didn't he steal the master bolt?"
She frowned and Hades looked at his nephew. "Open your backpack." Percy did so and drew out a two-foot-long metal cylinder that crackled with power.
"Percy..."
"I-I don't understand." Percy spoke with shock, his mind racing.
"The bag is the bolts sheath boy. No matter where my father's bolt lie, it will always return to the sheath after some time." The queen of the underworld hissed softly with anger. "The only reason that my husband has not called his armies to kill you is because of me. Now, how did you come by the bolt's sheath? The Furies did not see it on your persons when they were on the bus. So how?"
"It was a gift..." Percy began before it hit. He growled with anger. "...Ares..."
"Ares? What about him?" Inquired Hades, eyes narrowed and leaning forward.
Percy's fingernails dug into his skin as he recalled details from when he had meant the god of war. "Ares said that he told Posiden that it was you who stole the bolt. And he has been the only god in the west that we have meant other the you two. And he was the one to arrange the rid to LA and gave us the supplies and the back pack..."
"..." "..." The two immortals looked at each other. After a few tense seconds Hades looked at Percy hard. "I have a request boy. I will allow to leave he under you own power and confront Ares. However, I want you to find my helm as well. Do so and your mother will be returned to you."
"Lord Hades, your helm is missing as well?" Annabeth asked.
"Yes. Now, I belive that Percy had pearls that will allow you three to leave. I will be waiting for you to finish the job. And Percus..." Hades looked hard at him. "Make Ares suffer if he is the one who has my bolt."
"With pleasure."
As soon as they were gone. The two immortals looked at each other. And started to fight again over the subject that they were in the middle of fighting before. Over Persephone's son, Naruto
-time-skip-
Percy handed the helm to Ms. Dodds and walked towards his friends. A flash of light appeared and an immortal that he didn't know appeared. "Mom!" Annabeth exclaimed as the goddess stood before them.
"Annabeth, Grover, Percus." Athena looked at each carefully moving from one to the next. When she looked at Percy, he gulped. "You did well Percy Jackson. atlas you could have done better, but because you are new to this life I will not hold it against you. Now follow me you three. The summer solstice is nearly upon us and time is of the most importance."
"Where are we going?" Grover asked. Athena waved her hand and a black military car appeared with the symbol of an owl on the front.
"I am taking you and my daughter to camp and Percy to Olympus." Looking at Percy she smiled at his unease. "I will not kill or harm you son of Posiden. Yu have my word as a goddess."
"Couldn't I take a plane?"
Athena snorted after hearing his question. "My father will shoot you down even if it meant losing his weapon. Your brother has irked Zeus and in the mood his is in he will kill you."
"So it is true that Naruto is the son of all three of the queen goddesses?" Athena looked at her daughter.
"Yes, but that is not what has angered by father."
Percy was afraid to ask. "... What did Naruto do?"
Athena blushed as she thought about what happened. "Hermes was tasked to bring him before the council for questioning. He was tired and was not paying attention to where you brother was. Because of the lack of attention, Naruto was brought before Zeus when Naruto was going to the restroom."
Grover fainted and the two demigods jaws dropped. "Naruto peed on the king of the gods!?" They yelled together wondering how he was still alive. Athena's blush darkened as the image of Naruto's tool came into her mind.
'I wonder how big it is going to be... NO! Bad Athena... But its going to be big when he grows up.' The sky rumbled, thus shaking Athena from her thoughts. She wiped a trail of ichor that was leaking form her nose. Opening the door to she waved the satyr and demigods in. '...I'll think of it later...'
