(A/N Hey guys, DON'T FORGET TO VOTE! Here is the poll:

First Poll:

1. Yes – 4

2. No – 4

Second Poll (Only if you said yes to the first one.):

1. Reading fanfic. If this one is chosen, there will be a poll after these two to decide the fanfic they would read. – 3

2. An AU where Percy is mortal, but immortal beings are still around and alive. – 0

3. Different category of fanfic all together (probably Spider-Man because that is the other thing I know the most about, only trumped by Percy Jackson probably). – 2

SO… I think this poll is going to end on chapter 20, so vote while you still can.

Also, I'm putting this at the beginning, so I don't have another ridiculously long A/N at the end of this chapter. I always look over all my reviews, and I make sure to listen to every single one of them. What I mentioned last time was to the people who didn't offer much feedback at all that could help me and just told me to take down this story. I'm not doing that. I know this story is all over the place, especially at the moment, and I know it is extremely cliché. It is hard to not be too cliché because of how many stories that are like this out there. I think in a few chapter I start to take my own twist on things. I have had some serious writer's block these past couple of weeks and don't know how I'm going to lead up to something big. I am trying to make this story better, and I hope you all enjoy.

Sorry for the long A/N. Now, on with the story.)

Chapter 14: The Meeting and the Unknown

Unknown POV

Unknown place and time

"Interesting... he is much more powerful than I assumed. I will need to plan this out much more thoughtfully. I wonder what would happen if he had to... no... at least, not yet. I think I'm going to need more time. Unfortunately, I can't exactly rise today... no... that won't work either. I need to think about my next move carefully. I guess I showed a pawn... that's not good enough. I wonder... a knight might be my next move. I am going to have checkmate... you just wait Perseus Jackson... I will win. Now, let's think about this a little bit more. Actually... I have a better idea. Why don't we just watch and learn... let them think that they can plan and think they have the lead... they will see. They will all see.

"I can't wait to say hi to Chaos again either. I wonder what she will do when she sees me? Oh well, that's a question for another day. Let's see, I may as well start creating them now. This won't be easy. I will probably have to send them one at a time. It may take a couple years to finish. This... this may just work... only question is... who to start on first. I could start on her... no... I'll save her for later. I'll work on him. First though, I'll send them out... wonder what they will think of my... 'children'. This sure will be entertaining! I think it's almost time to test our young 'hero', don't you? Oh well, might as well focus on Perseus again. Let's see... got it... what is our you 'hero' doing now?"

Percy POV

Olympus: midday and same time as last scene

"I bet you are all wondering why I called you here? It is actually quite an interesting story. As you all know, I was recently kidnapped... What you do not know is that in the time that I have been missing... I am telling you this because I believe that this was the doing of a very powerful being. Someone who can rival Chaos in power if not surpass her. I came here to try and come up with a plan for fighting this evil. I also believe that this... thing... is the reason of the upcoming war, and the reason for Chaos to be so worried for the safety of Earth. I'm afraid that this being can easily overpower me, so I will need all the help I can get. We will need to fight together and find as many allies as possible. I think... No, I know that not everyone will survive. I'm sorry for that. I am. I can't help it though. We need to stop this threat with everything we have. No matter what, can we allow this evil to overcome us. I will help all I can, but we all must think about possible allies. Don't count anyone out. That's important. Think of all the people, things, that can help us. I can't stress enough how important it is to find anyone who will help us," I said as the last people were teleported into the throne room on Olympus. After a couple minutes of silence, the silence was broken.

"So... I'm guessing you have someone in mind?" Athena asked curiously.

I was very hesitant to answer, "Yes, I have... someone... in mind..."

"Who?" She asked again.

"I think we should go on to another topic."

"Why? Who is it Perseus? Tell us," Athena pressed again.

"I was thinking of talking to... to Kronos, and I was going to see if we could ally ourselves with the Titans," I finished calmly yet cringing, waiting for the uproar of arguments.

As expected, arguments and accusations of betrayal came from the gathered crowd. I calmly waited for everyone to calm down. Once they did, I raised my hand for silence.

"I know it may seem ridiculous, but we have to consider all the options. They want to keep this world alive as much as we do, and if we lead with that, then we might get their help. You also can't deny that they are powerful, and we would be lucky to have them side with us. I would like all the help we can get, even with those that we consider… considered… enemies. I don't know if it will work, but I hope it will. Please, all I ask of you is to think about it. I hope you all realize that it may not seem so far off of an idea. Now, another thing I want you to think about is the idea of some campers being sent to Aboriginal to train better, and they will be able to get more training done is less amount of time. That way we can send some of them away a little at a time. This way, the campers will be more prepared to fight the upcoming threat. I knew there was going to be a war, but I never thought it was going to be this bad. I'm sorry for that. I led you to false hope. I just need everyone to train and work their hardest into becoming the best they can be. I believe in all of you.

"Even you gods need to train. Some of you may be rusty, and all of you can improve. I'm going to hold you all to this. Meet with one of the Primordial gods to train. This is the most important and hardest war we have fought. May even be the hardest we will ever fight. I know this seems hard now, but this threat can be stopped. This is only the beginning! It will get harder! Just know that. I want all of you to stand up. I don't want anyone slacking behind. I want all of you to try your best. Yes, that includes you too Dionysus," I said as I saw Dionysus raise his hand, "Good, now that that is over with. Any questions?"

Athena instantly shot her hand in the air.

"Yes Athena?"

"Well... when you say train... how exactly are us gods supposed to train?" She asked seemingly confused.

"What I mean is train, so you are more equipped in using different weapons and your godly domains and abilities," I explained.

"Oh..."

"Yes, any other questions?"

For a while, no one said anything. Right when I was about to end the meeting, Zack stood up.

"Why do I need to train? I am the best fighter in the camps; I can't get any better."

"Really? Is that the case? Then I want the best fighter for the Romans fight Zack. I think... why don't you Romans choose?"

For a while there was a debate between Reyna and Jason. In the end, they decided to choose Reyna since Jason could be considered Roman and Greek now. When everyone settled down again, I teleported everyone to a coliseum with Reyna and Zack in the middle. Everyone sat down in the stands, eager for the fight. Honestly, I just wanted Reyna to kick Zack's ass, so we could get back to the meeting. I patiently waited though for everyone to quiet down.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the proclaimed best Greek and Roman fighter, Zack Morris and Reyna Ramirez-Arellano! Zack has challenged Reyna to see who is the best demi-god fighter there is. Now, let the battle... BEGIN!" I announced to everyone in the stadium.

Once my announcement was over, the two warriors rushed each other. Reyna led with a jab to Zack's side. Zack barely dodged it. For a while Zack and Reyna were trading blows, even though Reyna seemed to slightly be toying with him. After a while of nonstop blows from Zack, Reyna attacked full-fledged. She went on offense, and Zack was too tired to defend himself. When it was all over, Zack was covered in cuts and bruises. Reyna turned towards us and bowed her head.

I smirked at her, "Ladies and Gentlemen, it appears we have a winner!" I exclaimed as I teleported down to Reyna's side and raised her hand as if we were at a wrestling match.

Reyna looked towards me and smiled brightly at me. I smiled back just as brightly.

I leaned down to her ear, "You would've thought he learned his lesson when he challenged me but no such luck," I whispered into her ear. She visibly shivered from my voice on her ear.

"Now, can we please return to the meeting?" I asked exasperatedly.

Everyone nodded, and we all teleported back to the throne room. I looked around at everyone who was waiting patiently for me to continue.

"Thank you, now that that is over, anyone have any other questions?" I asked to my quiet audience, awaiting my words.

No one said anything.

"I'll take that as a no then. Well, I guess that means meeting dismissed."

Unknown POV

Unknown place and time

I don't like this. I need to make this go by faster. They are starting to plan. I need to do things quicker. Will I be able to use any more energy though? I don't know if I will be able to. I might as well try. I wonder if he will beat them? Maybe... he has proved me wrong before. I guess the better question is if he is ready. I don't think so... I should send it now. Only if it was done! UGH... the issues of having an evil plan, and it not going as quickly as I hoped.

"Well, might as well speed it up... this won't be safe... I will be depleted of my energy for longer than I hoped. Well, that could have its ups and downs. The project could be finished. You know what... that very could work... HAHA GOT IT! If I use my energy to speed up the process of most of the projects, then they should be able to keep him occupied long enough for me to gain power. YES, THIS IS PERFECT!" I giggled a little bit at the thought of the look on his face when he sees what I have planned.

"This could very well be his downfall... then again, it could be mine. Oh well, what fun is chess if you don't take any risks? RIGHT?! I think I spend too much time in here by myself. I mean actually. I'm talking to myself into complete darkness. I'm insane. Well, is that such a bad thing? Probably not... definitely helps in making it seem as if I don't have a brain. Makes people underestimate me. This is a very strong tactic in chess. The attack that you never saw something. I wonder if they will be able to overcome this... probably... this will be the easiest job they will get. Hmmmmmm... it will be funny to watch though. This is just what I wanted. I want to keep spreading the fears of everyone and everything around them. This will just be a fun entertainment. May as well make it kind of difficult. They should at least get ready, otherwise my plan won't work. They need to get more powerful. As the saying goes, 'The bigger they are. The harder they fall.' Might as well as make my announcement now."

Olympus

"Hello Olympians! What is it that they say? I come in peace? Well that is a load of bull! I wonder if you would believe me if I said that though. You all are just a bunch of simple minded idiots who think that they are the best rulers of this pathetic planet. If you are all so strong, then why do you all depend on those even more pathetic demigods," I boomed in the throne room.

"Who are you?! How dare you interrupt us, the Olympians!?" Zeus thundered 'very threateningly'.

"I'm your worst nightmare you worthless sky god! I will be your downfall!"

"Who are you calling worthless you little..." Zeus began to threaten.

"Father! Stop this!" Athena warned.

"Why?" Zeus questioned.

"It's obvious he is just trying to make you mad."

"Man, why did you have to ruin my fun?!" I complained like a two-year-old. I was about to say something else then thought better of it. I decided to take my leave, "I want to stay, but unfortunately, I have to go. Goodbye weaklings!"

Zeus POV

When I first heard the voice, I started to cower in fear. I thought that I had no hope in defeating it, then I realized that the rest of the council was here, so I had to be strong for them. I put on the brave face and challenged the voice. When it left, everyone looked at each other in slight fear.

"What are we going to do?" Apollo asked from his throne, seeming to have come out of deep thought.

"I don't know son... I don't know... Artemis, go get Percy and tell him that we are coming to camp to have a meeting with everyone."

Artemis nodded and flashed out. Everyone sat in nervous silence while Artemis was gone. When she returned, she said that everyone was waiting for us to arrive.

"Before we go, we should discuss what we should tell everyone," Athena suggested, "I mean we can't just say that a voice appeared out of nowhere and mocked us. That wouldn't work. We have to tell them just how powerful the voice felt. The fear it seemed to radiate. The way the voice was mocking us. We can't leave out any details. Our children need to know what we are facing or else barely any of them will survive."

"I think that is a great idea Athena... any objections?" I questioned the council. Each of whom wouldn't look me in the eyes directly, and I knew why. They were afraid. Not of me but of the voice that just came. They were afraid of the power it held. How it could easily destroy us without even a second thought. I saw the solemn look in my brother's eyes. I noticed even he wasn't going to challenge Athena's words, agreeing completely. That was something you didn't see every day. Poseidon and Athena agreeing on something. I nodded my head as no one spoke out and announced that we should teleport down.

When we arrived, everything went silent. I could hear everything, from the monsters in the woods, the waves pounding the beaches, and the eerie silence of camp. Everything was loud yet soft. Everything was so peaceful but aware of something bad... evil... in the air. Everyone felt the presence, even if it wasn't there. That's when it hit me. That's when I realized how dangerous this new enemy was. He could invoke fear into all of my subjects without even being there. He made everyone on edge, and no one even knew who he was. I just hoped that we could get through that tragedy together. I didn't know how wrong I was.

I looked over everyone in the stands, awaiting my announcement, "Ladies and gentlemen... I have grave news. We, the Olympians, were visited by something awful just now. It was an evil force sent to scare us more than likely. I don't know who or what it was; I just know that it is dangerous. I also wanted to propose a solution. We need to listen to Percy's advice. We need to join forces with the Titans to win this war," I finished, waiting for the uproar of surprise and anger to follow after my little speech. I just knew one thing as I saw the shock on everyone's faces, 'I had no other choice.'

(A/N Decided to switch it up with the POVs a little bit. I hope you all enjoyed.

Also, for any of those who watched the Super Bowl, did you like the game? Did it turn out the way you wanted it to?

Until next time, BYE!)
