Hey guys, once again I am sorry for the wait. Here is the next chapter! Enjoy :)

(14)

Back at camp

Percy stood there confused out of his mind.

"Percy?Percy?Percy?"

Shaking his head Percy focused onto Thalia who was right in his face.

Blushing Percy was quick to step back and state the obvious,"Um..sorry you were just a little close."

"Oh um..Yeah it is okay,"Thalia said as she blushed slightly before joining the others in the back.

Everyone besides Thalia and Percy rolled their eyes.

"Can we get back to business now?" Zoe asked politely her black eyes staring into Percy's,"Please?"

Percy nodded his head.

"Ok,"Chiron said clapping his hands once,"Percy as we were just saying you will be the leader of the upcoming quest to save Lady Artemis and Annabeth."

"And Nico and Bianca,"Percy said.

"Who now?"Chiron asked confused.

"The children. The ones you sent Grover and the others for,"Percy said a bit agitated.

The confusion on Chiron's faced turned to one of realization,"Ah them. Almost forgot about them.. I am sorry my boy. Yes, and the quest to find the two children Nico and Bianca.

Percy only shook his head in disbelief,"How can you forget them Chiron are they not important?"

Chiron shook his head quickly,"No no Percy it is just I was...

Shaking his head Percy turned around and walked out before Chiron finished his sentence."

As he exited the building he mumbled under his breath, "not as important eh? They are god damn fucking demigods."

Shaking his head one last time Percy shadow traveled to his cabin.


Hermes Cabin

Coming out of the shadows Percy was met with an empty cabin.

Or so he thought.

"Percy?" a feminine voice said.

Turning around Percy was met with the face of his half-sister Megan.

"Meg? is that really you? Gosh look how big you have grown!" Percy said before quickly lifting her up in his arms and spinning her around.

"P-P-Percy stop!"She said in between giggles.

Stopping and setting her down Percy kissed the nine-year-old on the head.

In return Megan gave Percy a quick hug before going out of the cabin.

Realizing he should find out where the others are Percy quickly ran up to her.

"Megan!"

Turning around Megan said,"Yes Percy?"

"Where are the others?"He asked, Percy's voice sounded confused with a hint of curiosity.

"Sword place,"Megan answered.

"Thanks Meg."

Megan nodded her head before skipping off into the direction of the big house.

Focusing on the sword arena Percy decided to "surprise" his cabin mates and any others in the arena.

Shadow traveling away Percy was sure to get attacked, but hey it would be all worth it in the end.


Back in the big House right after Percy left.

"Well then,"Thalia said as she turned to face Chiron.

"Was it something I said?"Chiron asked, confused as to why Percy walked out so suddenly.

"No Chiron it is not thy fault,"Zoe assured Chiron.

"Your,"Thalia said as she faked a cough.

"Excuse me?"Zoe asked confused.

"Oh nothing hunter,"Thalia said with a smirk.

Shaking her head Zoe promised to go and find Percy to get an explanation.

Nodding his head Chiron said,"The quest will start tomorrow, so please make sure to get Percy in that attic."

Nodding her head Zoe exited the room.

"Now where are thou," Zoe asked herself as she opened the front doors of the house. (Tried my best to use some middle english,Oh and I went and changed some of her dialogue in the last chapter... I am trying okay?)


Percy

As Percy came out of the shadows he landed a couple meters away from the arena.

Perfect, Just Perfect.

Percy looked upon the crowd in the arena. Three quarters of the camp was there and Percy had to keep calm in order to stop the grin that kept trying to form on his face.

Cracking his neck Percy began to whisper and ancient chant. One that calls upon the most terrifying figures in the shadow realm.

After a few seconds Percy stopped his chant and waited for the shadows to form.

Not more than three seconds later a small black shadowy ball appeared next to him.

"My lord,"the ball said. The voice had a heavy Greek accent.

"Hey Jeff how is it going? oh and don't call me lord..Please,"Percy said casually like it was a normal everyday thing.

Sighing Jeff asked,"What can I do for you my... Percy?"

Smiling Percy explained his plan to Jeff.

Once Percy was done Jeff the shadowy ball shifted into one of a middle aged man in a ancient Greek tunic.

"It will be done my lor..I mean Percy,"Jeff said as he nodded his head and traveled away.

Cracking his fingers Percy wait for the chatter and screams to begin.

Percy felt the air getting colder, and the sky getting darker.

All going swell so far.

After a few moments Percy saw the shadowy figures walk past him into the arena.

One was as giant as a fully grown pine tree.

Looking at it Percy could tell this was what he had hoped for.

The monster had long and sharp horns on the top of his head. You could say he looked like the devil.

Letting a small smile form on his lips Percy indicated the shadows to surround and enter the arena.

After a few moments Percy's dropped the smile as soon as the screams began.

"Show time," Percy said rubbing his hands together.

Percy began to walk towards the arena his form glowing as he as he got closer and closer.

Once Percy reached the entrance the glowing stopped and the devilishly handsome Percy Jackson was now unrecognizable.

He was now a tall man covered in black torn robs that leaked out shadows at the ends.

The screaming continued and Percy watched as the campers tried to escape the arena only to be pushed back in by the shadows.

For a brief moment Percy felt regret. He thought he may be going too far, but before the thought consumed his mind it was taken over by the excitement of the prank.

Hey a little scare is good for the body once and awhile, Percy reassured himself.

As soon as all the shadows where in place Percy shadow traveled into the arena.

Once inside Percy examined the terrified faces of each and every camper in the arena.

Every cabin but the Aphrodite and Demeter cabin where there.

Perfect.

After a few seconds every camper focused on Percy some had their swords and bows drawn others where curled up in the fetal position.

With a wave of his hand the swords and bows where blown out of the campers hands and into the shadows.

At this point every single camper was now terrified. Without weapons they had to resort to their powers, but the thing was most of them did not have powers that could be useful in non-armed combat.

Deciding to move forward since He had the campers by the neck Percy ordered them to sit.

"You can't tell us what t-t-t-o do,"an Ares camper said boldly at first but ended it quietly as the shadows all focused on him.

Turning the around Percy glared into the camper's eyes. After a few moments the son of Ares sat back down.

"Would anyone else like to tell me what I can't do?"Percy asked, his voice deep and old as time itself with.

Every camper shook their heads quickly.

"THEN SIT!" Percy screamed.

Every camper sat down as quick as possible. As they did not want to anger this stranger anymore then they have already.

"W-w-who are you?"a terrified member of the Athena cabin asked, as she bravely stood up.

Smiling his once pair of pearly whites had been replaced with a decaying blackened pair.

"I am HELL!"Percy snarled at the Athenian.

In response the shadows moved in closer and the whispering was getting louder.

Her knees shook as she sat back down.

"H-H-Hades?" this time a member of the Hermes cabin asked.

Turning towards the speaker Percy only laughed in response.

His laugh was deep and ancient. Something you would expect from a titan such as Kronos.

"No my child I am much worse than Hades,"Percy explained with an evil smirk as he raised his head up just enough so the campers could see was his fire like eyes.

"W-w-what do you want then?"

Smiling once more Percy said but one word,"Death."

Percy opened his mouth and exhaled.

As he exhaled even more shadows came out of his mouth.

"Attack,"was the last word Percy said before every single shadow screeched loudly and rushed towards the arena and campers.

In response every single camper screamed in terror.

In seconds the whole arena was covered in shadows.

The shadows screeching became louder and louder as Percy's terrifying laughter filled the air.

After a few minutes of screaming the air and sky began to go back to normal, the shadows began to dissipate and what was left right in the center of it all was a laughing Perseus Jackson.


Zoe

Once outside Zoe decided to look for Percy in his cabin.

"I swear if thou are not there, I will kick thy ass," Zoe mumbled to herself.

As Zoe reached the cabin she noticed how quiet it was. An unusual thing for the Hermes cabin.

Upon reaching the door Zoe knocked on it three times before hollering, "Perseus? Perseus? Are you in there?"

Knock knock knock

Silence.

Cupping her mouth Zoe screamed, "PERSEUS I SWEAR TO..."

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"AHHHHHHHH!"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Multiple terrified screams stopped Zoe from finishing her sentence. Both male and female.

"What in the world," Zoe said confused.

Backing away from the door Zoe decided to investigate the commotion.

More screams where heard. A lot louder this time.

Pin pointing the location of the screams Zoe quickly ran to the arena.


As Zoe approached the arena she could not believe her eyes.

Right in front of her was multiple shadowy type creatures varying from devilish types to wraiths.

The air was also very cold and the sky was as dark as a rainy day, which was strange due to the camp's force field keeps out the bad weather.

"What in the world."

As soon as Zoe said this an unknown voice shouted the word "Death" before every shadow screeched and flew into the arena consuming it in seconds.

At this point Zoe was completely lost.

After a few seconds the screeching stopped and so did the screaming.

The once cold air and sky was now back to normal, as was the arena. Except there was one figure standing in the middle of the arena with people surrounding him.

It was Percy Jackson.


Percy

As soon as everyone realized Percy was standing right where the creature that scared the shit out of them was every camper present rushed towards him with very angry looks.

"Oh oh,"Percy said with widened eyes.

"I am going to kill you Percy Jackson!"Clarisse screamed.

As did many other campers and most of the Ares cabin.

Time to go,Percy thought to himself.

Right before he shadowed traveled out Percy saw the smiling faces of his brothers and sisters.


Percy shadow traveled behind a tree that was a couple meters from the arena.

Deciding to wait for People to leave Percy watched as the crowd of people looked around in shock for a few moments before they gave up and walked off to somewhere else. Some of which cursed Percy's name repeatedly.

"Fuck I pissed them off good,"Percy said with a laugh.

"Yes thou did moron."

Percy quickly turned around.

"Zoë?,"Percy asked with widened eyes,"How long have you been here?"

"Long enough,"she said.

"It was that loud?"Percy asked astonished that she had heard the events that unfolded in the last few minutes.

Zoë nodded her head in response.

"Shit,"he said under his breath.

Sighing Percy motioned her to follow him.

"Come let's sit,"Percy said.

Once they were seated on a bench Zoë asked right away,"What where thou thinking?"

Laughing slightly Percy said,"I wanted to show the campers my new abilities, so what better way than to scare the living fuck out of them!"

Face palming and shaking her head slowly Zoë explained,"Yeah well how are you going to explain this to Chiron? And how are you going to stop the campers form killing you?"

Slashing his hand through the air Percy scratched the back of his neck before telling Zoe,"Ah they will get over it. Give them a few weeks and they will be laughing about it. Trust me do not worry. And Chiron? Well let's hope he did not hear the screams."

Rolling her eyes Zoë decided to change the subject and ask about the big house event.

"So Perseus?"

Percy with a smile nodded his head for her to go on.

"Why did you storm out of the big house after the talk about the quest?"Zoe asked as she tilted her head to the left.

Percy's smile turned to a frown.

"You can tell her Perseus." Hades said in Percy's mind.

Percy was about to ask his uncle something but Hades cut the link before he could.

Sighing Percy rubbed the back of his neck before asking Zoe,"Promise me you won't tell anyone anything that I am about to say."

"What?"Zoë asked confused.

Inhaling deeply Percy exhaled before repeating,"Promise."

After a few moments Zoë nodded her head.

Exhaling Percy thanked Zoë.

"You remember why I was at the academy right?"Percy asked.

"Um thou was with the others trying to bring the children to camp?"Zoë said slowly as she was not too sure if that was correct.

"You were partially right,"Percy explained,"I was there for the children, but I wasn't with the camp nor was I going to bring them to camp."

Zoë's face turned into one of confusion,"Then where were thou going to take them?"

Sighing Percy looked at the ground before responding.

"Hades,"He mumbled.

"Pardon?"Zoë asked.

Lifting his head up Percy said again,"The Underworld."

Raising her left eye brow Zoë asked,"Why?"

"Because they are his children,"Percy said blankly.

Zoë's mouth opened wide, as did her eyes.

Percy only gave a small chuckle at the look of his friends face before he told her,"You better close your mouth before something finds their way into it."

Zoë was quick to shut her mouth and just as quick to give Percy a death glare.

"Oh calm down I am only joking,"Percy explained.

Shaking her head Zoë huffed in annoyance.

Wanting to finish up the conversation Zoë said,"We leave tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, so be ready by then."

With that said Zoë walked off.

"Girls,"Percy said as he shook his head.

He then too got up and walked back towards his cabin.


Zoë

After the conversation with Percy Zoe decided to go and talk to Chiron about her findings. Of course she would leave out the whole kids of Hades part.

Once she reached the big house Zoë found Chiron outside talking to Mr.D

Upon reaching him Mr.D was already making his way back into the house.

Before she could say anything Chiron asked,"Did you hear any screaming?"

Zoë only looked confused at Chiron for a few seconds before realizing what he meant.

"Yes,"Zoë said.

"I will have to look into that... but for now did you talk to Perseus?"Chrion asked.

Zoe Nodded her head.

"What did he say,"Chrion asked as he stroked his beard.

"Nothing much. Just that the children where special to him, and he was mad that you seemed to not care to much about them,"Zoë said, as she guessed the last part since Percy never really told her why he stomped out, but she presumed that was why.

Nodding his head slowly Chiron said,"I will have to talk to him once you guys get back from the quest."

Nodding her head Zoë said her goodbyes before walking off.

After the disaster that had happened earlier today Zoë was dying to blow off some steam.

She decided to make her way to the archery range. You never know maybe the children of Apollo will be there so she can show them how to shoot a bow the proper way.


Hermes Cabin

Upon reaching the Hermes cabin Percy was met with the usual loud noise.

"It is good to be back."

Once Percy opened the door he was bombarded with questions about what he had just done.

After a good hour Percy had cleared everything up and answered the most asked question,"How did you get those powers."

Once everyone went back to what they were doing Percy went over to Connor and Travis.

"Hey Perce,"Connor said.

"Hey guys, so how is everything going?"Percy asked.

From that moment on Percy spent the rest of his night hanging with his cabin mates as he would be spending the next few days with an all-women's group. Something Percy was going to have a hard time dealing with.


Luke

Luke was currently keeping watch as they moved their prisoners to the cells near Atlas's position.

"Annabeth,check. Artemis, check."Luke said as he checked their names off a clip board.

Artemis tried to flash out of the chains, but she stopped after realizing it was no use.

Laughing at the failed attempts to escape by Lady Artemis Luke said,"don't worry those are special celestial bronze chains,so you won't be going anywhere anytime soon."

With that said Luke winked at Annabeth and threw them both into the cells.

"Dinner is at five, but don't expect much," Luke said with an evil grin.

Luke turned around and walked away.
