A/N: I don't have anything else better to do, so I might as well update something. Gosh, no reviews huh? I'm starting to think you are getting bored with my story. Well, looks like I need to step things up. In this chapter, I'll reveal some of the allies that Percy got. Some of them you might not expect. I got only like 4 reviews. So, here's chapter 14, enjoy.

Disclaimer: Just read the last chapter

Chapter 14

Al's POV

Tests have always been a teenager's worst nightmare. Either it's a school test, a huge test or even a test to decide whether you're going to see your family again or no, it's always scary.

Aether and Hemera said that they had something special planned for all three of them. Al was getting worried. Technically, he was the eldest one among the three of them (he was born a few minutes after Liz) so he needed to take charge. Rube might be powerful, but he's inexperienced and shares the same sarcasm that their father had.

"Okay, so all three of you will face this guy." Aether said. Something materialized in the middle of the room. It was a drakon, which Al thought was weird.

"That's it?" Al asked. He wasn't being overconfident, but drakons are easy to deal with. His parents had taught both of them how to fight every single type of monsters from harpies to flying pigs to man eating piranha sheep (long story). Al didn't really consider this as a challenge because it was only one monster, and it remained immobile. It didn't lunge at them or tried to attack, which confused Al even more.

"Yes. There's your challenge. Kill them, if you can." Aether said with an evil grin.

"No problem. I'll do it." Rube said. He created a sword in his hand and dashed towards the drakon.

Wait, Aether said 'kill them'. Is there . . .

"Rube, stop!" Al yelled but it was too late. As soon as Rube's sword met the drakon's scales, it dissolved into a puddle of water. Rube looked at the puddle of water with confusion, but he was snapped out of it when a torrent of water slammed onto him, sending him flying back towards where Al and Liz were standing.

"Shit, what the fuck was that?" Rube asked as he got up. Luckily, he didn't look hurt, but he was soaking wet.

"Water powers? Maybe a sea deity." Liz said.

"Oceanus?" Al said.

Then, a different female voice interrupted them. "How dare you compare me to that weak Titan?" She roared but her voice sounded like it came from underwater. A gargled sound that sent several chills down Al's spine.

The puddle of water left by the drakon started to rise and formed the figure of a woman. She had messy black hair with two lobster pincers sticking out from her head like horns. She wore a dark hooded robe which covered her face. Her skin was pale and she had something in her hand. At first, Al thought it was some kind of oar for a boat, but Al realized it was a weapon. A five feet wooden staff with huge double edged blade merged at the end of it.

"Who are you?" Rube asked.

"Of course you don't know me." The woman sneered.

Aether raised his hands for attention. "Rube, Al and Liz, welcome to your first challenge. You'll have to face her and her children, the Telkhines."

"Wait, her children?" Al asked.

Telkhines started popping up from the floor and walls, surrounding the woman.

"I am Thalassa, a primordial sea goddess, daughter of Aether and Hemera." The woman said.

"Never heard of you and I don't plan on knowing more about you." Rube said.

"For once, I agree." Liz added. Al also nodded. She was in their way of going home to their family. That was all that mattered. Thalassa actually laughed.

"You think the three of you could defeat me and my children? I am the mother of Telkhines!" Thalassa roared loudly.

"Uh, yeah, well we're the children of Perseus Jackson." Al said, trying to sound as threatening as possible. At their father's name, Thalassa hissed.

"Perseus Jackson!" Thalassa said the name in disgust. "If it wasn't for him, I'll be the Queen of the Seas by now!" Then, Thalassa studied us more carefully. "Perhaps the death of the three of you will be sufficient to quench my thirst for vengeance."

"Um, I have no plans on being your Coca Cola, so let's just-" Rube was interrupted by a telkhine lunging at him. Rube slashed his sword and cut the monster in half, making it dissolve into golden dust.

This will be a long day.

Percy's POV

Right now, Percy was holding back the urge to go to the Fates and just smack the shit out of them.

After his children's disappearance, Percy thought his day would get better, but the Fates had other plans for him. Why did he even think about walking through Central Park to buy a hotdog?

After receiving the news that his children were kidnapped by Aether and Hemera, Percy decided to get some fresh air and get out of the Greek world. Away from Olympus, the gods and everything that seemed weird. Percy was walking around New York and arrived at Central Park by sheer coincidence. It seemed like a normal day in New York. Parents were taking their children for a walk while other people were jogging around or cycling. Percy bought a hotdog and started munching away. It was afternoon and the place was still a bit crowded.

Percy was walking around until something out of the ordinary happened. Almost instantaneously, the sky darkened and the winds were blowing stronger that Percy started to struggle to keep his footing. Lightning struck all around Percy, blasting the pavement and trees around him. At first, Percy thought that Thalia was responsible for this, but even she couldn't whip up a storm this massive. This wasn't done by a god or Titan. A primordial did this.

Instinctively, Percy raised Rudra to block an incoming sword behind him. Percy stepped back and readied his swords. "Fire won't work here, Perseus Jackson." The man said in an odd voice that didn't seem human at all. It sounded old, ancient and sounded like it haven't spoken in years.

Percy really needed to stop making a rep for himself, because everyone knew him, even the ones he didn't knew. "Not to be rude, but who're you?"

"It's not a surprise you don't know me. After all, it's been a while since I've shown my human manifestation to anyone. You've earned my respect, Perseus Jackson after escaping my father's realm and putting my mother back to sleep." The man said.

Percy studied him even more. The man had a humanoid figure and he was extremely handsome. Even Narcissus didn't compare to him. He had dark hair that was constantly whipping around because of the wind. He was muscular and well built and had a sword that was made out of a mixture of black and dark green mist. Even his whole body was swirling with smoke with different colours. Black, dark green and yellow swirled around his feet; His eyes were yellow with a tinge of greenish colour.

Escaping his father's realm? Putting his mother back to sleep? The latter must be about Gaia.

That means, he's one of Gaia's kids. Great, now Percy has a superpowerful storm bringing deity chasing him. "Okay, I give up. Who are you?"

The man smiled. Just for a second, his figure flickered. A hideous monster made out of dark and green clouds. Percy would never have thought he would have to see that face again.

"Th-That's impossible . . . My father . . . He sent you to Tartarus!" Percy said.

"Yes he did. It took a while, but I managed to reform." The man said. Percy paled a bit. What should he do? He'd never faced someone that strong. He had problems fighting with a Cyclopes, much less an enemy of the gods.

"So, Typhon, what brings you here?" Percy asked.

"I'm here to join you, Percy."

Percy heard him like he'd just said I want to eat a large smelly boot. "Can you, um, repeat that so I heard right."

"I'm here to join you."

Percy paled even more. He didn't know which is worse. Fighting against Typhon or having him as an ally. Percy kept his nerve. "How do I know I can trust you? Why do you want to join me?"

Typhon's eyes flashed with an expression that Percy didn't know. Sadness? Grief? Regret? Anger? "I'm not forcing you to have me as your ally, but I'm just offering. As for why I want to join you . . . Well, this concerns my father."

"Tartarus?"

Typhon nodded. "My father harbours a grudge at Nyx and her children. Nyx and her children had a palace in my father's realm. I'm sure you're aware of that."

"I visited there once, but I didn't really see what it looked like."

"Be glad you didn't. Lady Chaos blamed Tartarus for having Nyx building her realm on top of Chaos' realm. Because of this, my father is mad at Nyx."

"I thought Chaos didn't mind that?"

"Oh she did, very much in fact. Nyx and Erebus were the earliest of darkness, but they all come from Chaos. Now, Chaos' realm is shrouded by Nyx's realm and my father took the blame."

"So, you're joining me because your father wants to get revenge on Nyx?"

Typhon nodded. "If we manage to beat Nyx afterwards, we will be enemies again, Perseus Jackson. I still have a grudge on Olympus for imprisoning me, but I need to settle my father's demands."

"Why didn't your father come here himself?" Percy asked.

"Percy, you are the first demigod that my father has revealed his manifestation to. You are also the first one who had been able to talk to me without getting obliterated first."

"Glad to know."

"My father wishes not to show his face to anyone, so he sent me." Typhon explained. Then, Percy realized the storm had stopped and the winds had died down, but the sky was still dark.

"During the war, I will come to your aide. Until then, I will remain hidden. And you can help me by telling the Olympians not to attack me on sight." Typhon said with a grin, which was a bit surprising. The Father of Monsters, grinning to a demigod like Percy was one of his pals from college. "Until we meet again, Perseus Jackson." Typhon vanished in a gust of wind.

"Well, that was fun." Percy muttered.

Ai's POV

Ai and Reyna were dating people from the same family, so they were sharing the same kind of sadness when Al and Liz disappeared. Ai won't talk to anyone and Reyna had done nothing but kept quiet and looking depressed. Reyna and Ai had stayed inside Al and Liz's palace for a while now. Ai didn't know what's wrong with Reyna; maybe she's sad that she'd just lost a friend. Ai didn't know. All Ai know was, Liz, Al and Rube will be coming back.

Ai was pacing around the palace, didn't know what to do. The pain of waiting was killing him. In frustration he stomped his foot and accidentally cracked the floor. Ai let out an "Oops."

Then, he heard a scream coming out from Liz's room. Ai rushed towards it and immediately kicked the doors open without knocking. That was a huge mistake.

As soon as the door open, Ai saw Reyna, well, she's almost nude. Reyna wore a set of black undergarments and she looked at Ai in confusion. Then, her face turned into embarrassment. "What the fuck are you doing?!" She screamed.

"Oh shit!" Ai immediately turned around and covered his eyes. "Sorry! I'm so sorry! I heard you scream and I thought you were in some kind of trouble."

"I am, but can you at least knock first?" Reyna demanded as she searched for her clothes.

"Well, sorry! I thought you were being strangled by some bed sheets or something like that." Ai stated out. There was a few moments of silence before Reyna spoke again.

"Okay, you can look now." Reyna said. Thank goodness, Reyna had her clothes on this time. Both of their faces were red from embarrassment.

"Sorry about that." A voice said.

"Who was that?" Ai asked.

"That's the problem." Reyna said.

"Oh, I don't mean any harm." The voice sounded like a female voice.

"Who are you? Show yourself?" Reyna called.

"Right here." The voice said, but this time more clearly, as if it was actually coming from a solid form. She was standing behind Reyna. Reyna jumped when the woman spoke behind her. The woman laughed out loud. She had shining black hair, creepy black eyes with no irises. She was beautiful, but beautiful in kind of a creepy way, if that made sense.

"Who are you?" Ai asked.

"Sorry about that. I'm the Styx, Goddess of the River, well, Styx." The woman said.

"Wait, you're Styx?" Ai asked.

"As in, the river-in-the-Underworld, Styx?" Reyna added.

"Yes, yes I am."

"Well, no disrespect, but what are you doing here?" Ai asked.

"Well, I'm here to tell you that I'll be joining you with your quest against Nyx." Styx said proudly with a smile. Reyna shook her head. Ai was confused at her behaviour.

"I thought the River Styx was the river of hate. Why are you so, I don't know, cheerful?" I asked. Reyna nodded in agreement. Styx threw up her hands in exasperation.

"Is it wrong for me to be cheerful? I might be the goddess of the River of Hate, but that doesn't mean I have to hate everything. If I did that, then everyone who came and took a dip in my river would be dead." Styx grumbled. "I'm here to offer my help in your war against Nyx."

"Why?" Reyna asked. "Why would you wage war against one of the strongest primordials?"

"Because of my husband, Pallas." Styx explained. "It's actually a confusing story."

"We've got the time." Reyna said.

"Okay, so the sea primordials, Pontus and Thalassa, are planning to join you, along with Aether and Hemera who're testing your friends right now."

"What?"

"Okay, Pontus' daughter, Eurybia, a minor goddess of the sea and my mother-in-law, are joining Nyx's side along with her husband, Krios. My husband wasn't going to follow his parents and decided to send me to see if you are worth fighting for."

"And are we worth it?"

"My husband thinks you are and we should help you."

"Well, what's stopping you then?" Reyna asked.

"The Olympians." Styx said sternly. Ai looked confused.

"What do you mean?"

"Every single being or deity that made an oath upon my river will be bound to a fate that should they break the oath, they will die. The Olympians had broken too many oaths, and they didn't deserve what they should have deserved!" Styx almost screamed. "I am sick and tired of the gods not keeping their promises. I will side with you on one condition."

"And what will that be?" Ai asked.

"Every being or deity that breaks an oath sworn upon my river will die, regardless if they're immortal or not." Styx said.

"Wait, then that means . . ."

"Don't worry. I won't count the old promises that anyone had made, but I will after this." Styx said. "Tell that to the gods." Ai and Reyna looked at each other.

"Can we have a minute?" Ai asked as he pulled Reyna aside.

"Well, hurry up because the offer won't stand."

When they were out of the room, Reyna panicked. "What the fuck are we supposed to do?" Reyna said.

"I don't know."

"We need to consult with the council."

"We can't because that'll take too much time. We need to make this decision on our own."

Reyna stomped her foot in frustration. "How do we know that she won't betray us?"

"I have an idea. Follow my lead." Ai said as they entered the room again.

"Well? Have you made up your mind?"

"We accept your terms." Ai said.

"Very well then. I'll just-"

"But, before you go . . ." Ai stopped her. "Swear on the River Styx that you and your husband won't betray us and will help us in the war against Nyx."

Styx looked surprised, as if she didn't expect this at all. Reyna was also taken by shock. "Wh-What?"

Ai shrugged. "I'm getting a solemn oath."

To his surprise, Styx managed to laugh and gave him a smile. "Well played, Ai Rayner. Okay then. I swear by the River Styx that my husband and I won't betray you and will help you in the war against Nyx."

Ai sighed in relief. "You do know, should you break that oath, you will die, right?"

"I'm well aware of that." Styx said. "Well, until we meet again." Then, she vanished in a flash of light, leaving a sick smell of sulphur and oil.

"We need to tell everyone. They can't make anymore oaths. It'll kill them." Reyna said.

"Let's tell them, then."

A/N: Well, there you have it. Two brand new allies to add to the team. Before that, I'll just tell you this. Every name I used in this chapter actually existed. I've done some intense research (*cough* thank you Wikipedia) and found a few other immortals that I didn't know about. Thalassa is real and so is Eurybia. So, leave a review if you like or hate it. A review always helps. Until then, take care.

P.S: I don't know why, but I'm getting less and less reviews with each chapter. Am I doing something wrong? Is the fanfic getting boring by the minute? Tell me so I can improve. You can state out anything in the reviews if you feel like something makes this story uninteresting. If you did send a review, I thank you in advance.
