3rd Person's PoV

Perseus knew that he and Annabeth had knocked down the Olympians, but he never thought they would be knocked down... for the next few weeks.

You see, they were so into the changes of Camp Half-Blood that they forgotten about the gods. It could happen to anyone that if you defeated twelve of the most important forces of the Universe, and you forget when you're taking care of a bunch of untrained kids.

Completely understandable.

"Wise Girl, don't you think that we're forgetting something...?" Perseus asked, scratching his head, trying to remember what was that important thing he was forgetting. Annabeth, who was looking down at her blueprints for a new canoe shed, frowned at that question.

"Of course we're forgetting something, Seaweed Brain." She retorted at him, making him tilt his head. "The shed is not done and you can't go there and start playing with the canoes..."

"Wasn't talking about the canoe shed, Annabeth." He explains, calmly. After all, he didn't remember what it was.

"Um... Did you remember to give the kids protection when you send them to the lava wall?" She checked in a tone that said very clear 'you better had given them protection or I wouldn't want you near our children any time soon'. Perseus loved that look on her.

"I strapped them myself." He announced proudly, puffing his chest. Annabeth chuckled and shoved him lightly, not moving a muscle. "But, seriously... I think we forgot something..." In that moment, a soldier of Chaos walked to them and bowed.

"Milord, Milady. The cabins are finished, following your requests." The soldier announced, leaving. Only then, it was when Perseus' thoughts made click and looked at Annabeth, a little concern.

"I remember now..."

"What was what we forgot to do?"

"We left the Olympian Council unconscious."


After making sure that their soldiers and Chiron could control any situation that the campers got themselves in, Perseus and Annabeth flashed out of Camp and into the Olympians' Council Room, to find them in the same position and place that they left them. It was kind of funny in some cases, actually, like watching Zeus' face on Poseidon's butt. Or Aphrodite's body sprawled all over the floor. One of the peacocks of Hera's temple had found its way into the room and was nesting on top of Ares' head.

Hilarious.

Perseus wanted to wake them up with the gong of a giant cymbal, like in those ancient funny movies, where the people would wake up alarmed. The want and need was too strong, but he stopped himself, as this wasn't complete.

"Percy, we can't be everywhere and control everything..." Annabeth's reasonable voice reached him. She had taken seat at the feet of one of the thrones, looking around at the bodies. Perseus walked to her and sat down as well, wrapping an arm around her shoulders.

"In a sense, we control everything and we're everywhere-"

"You get my point." She interrupted him, serious. He sighed and nodded.

"I was just trying to lighten things up..." He admitted, earning a chaste kiss on his cheek. "I know we can't be here all the time or in Camp Half-Blood, as we have bigger and more permanent responsibilities somewhere else, but... We can have someone representing us."

"But, who? Who could be wise enough to be fair and not fall into temptation of power?" Annabeth wondered. Perseus looked around and, in his mind, a plan was beginning to form. He didn't know if it was a nice plan or even if this would succeed, but it was an idea of a plan and he was willing to try.

"How about the people that rejected it in the first place?" Annabeth raised an eyebrow, not understanding where he was going with this. "Look around, Wise Girl. Tell me what you see missing..."

"I see... The bonfire is missing." She recognized and frowned. "Where is Hestia's fire? Hades is also missing here... Didn't he want to know if something happened to his brothers and sisters?"

"In all honesty, I think he's enjoying the free time he has now that Demeter is not there to nag him." He gestured at the pass out Demeter, who was being stripped of her grains by the peacock in Ares' head. Annabeth giggled and nodded. "We should call him, and Hestia."

"But, before that..." Out of nowhere, Annabeth's hand was holding some duct tape and a rope. Perseus chuckled and nodded.

Every moment with Annabeth was fun!


Gong!

Annabeth watched as the Olympians wake up, all in different states of confusion. The funniest one was Ares, as he didn't understand why he had a peacock nesting on his head and was moving around furiously to get it off. Soon, the Olympians discovered that they couldn't move or even communicate, as their members were tied and their mouth covered with duct tape.

Hestia and Hades were the most confused of the bunch, as they weren't aware of what had happened before they arrived. The just were summoned on Olympus and found that the thrones of the Olympians (all except for the main two) were tore down and destroyed, two mysterious figures by them and the rest of the Council tied up and mouth covered.

"I see a lot of confusion on your face, Uncle Hades..." Perseus began, straightening up from his position against the throne. Hades looked even more confused, but gasped when Perseus' figure was recognizable. "Ah! Looks like no one had explained to you what happened to me... Same with Aunt Hestia..." Hades glanced to his side and noticed Hestia was having a similar reaction to him. "All in due time..."

"Don't play with them, Seaweed Brain..." Annabeth scolded him, playfully. "Hades, Hestia. We would like for you to hear a tale, before you say something wrong."

That way, Annabeth and Perseus told Hades and Hestia, the eldest kids of Kronos, what had happened to them during that last millennia. There were moments were Hestia would cover her mouth and gasp in surprise, or moments where it was obvious that Hades was angry, but kept his composure. Once in awhile, they could glance at the tied and gagged Olympians with disgust and hate.

"I still don't understand why you called us here..." Hestia pointed out, not understanding. "It's obvious you can deal with several situations..."

"Isn't obvious, Hestia? They want us to rule over the Council..." Hades explained to her, gently. It was amazing how much respect Hades had for his sister.

"It's more than that, Hades." Perseus admitted, ready to drop the bomb to the tied and gagged gods behind them. "We want you to be the Council." The gags of protest weren't wait long as the other twelve Olympians tried to voice out their complains. "We chose you two, because you balance each other. Man, woman. Dark, light. Cold, warm. Those are what you each represent."

"That doesn't mean that you are like that." Annabeth quickly added, as they wanted to get on their good side and calling Hades 'cold and dark' wasn't going to help. "Would you honor us, by taking these rightful spots? They were always meant to be yours..." Hades glanced at Hestia before speaking.

"Could you give us some time to talk about it?" Perseus nodded in agreement.

"Take your time, as we have to deal with a very important and urgent matter." He said, grabbing Annabeth's arm and flashing them out of there. Once they arrived to destination, Annabeth let go of him.

"What was so urgent you pulled me like that?!" She questioned him, but he wasn't paying attention to her, for once. He was walking straight towards a commotion. Annabeth followed him, concern. She suddenly saw him get in the middle of the commotion and pull two people apart, pinning one of them on to the ground. As soon as Annabeth recognized the face, she knew that person was in troubles. "C'mon, kids... Let's give them a little space." She ordered around, just as Perseus dragged Han towards the newly rebuilt arena.

Annabeth sighed and shook her head.

If that kid Han didn't learn his lesson soon, he would end up dead.


Hello, guys

First of all, i want to apologize for not posting last Sunday. You see, last Sunday was my grandfather's birthday and it was held at home, so I was greeting guests all day. By the time the party ended, I had to clean up all the mess and I was tired. I know it's not excuse, but it's the truth.

Also, since Monday midday till this morning I was without power. And no power means no wifi nor electricity. Which is why I'm posting today.

I'll be posting today 3 chapters of Mortals: Meet... the In-Laws (had it a little forgotten!), 1 chapter of Percy Jackson, son of Chaos and the final 7 chapters of Mortals: Meet... 2 (last chapter will have its own emotional goodbye note).

I remind you that you have time till next Wednesday to vote on my next story, here or in my in Facebook: pg/SilverHuntresses/posts (your choice).

Also, I want to let you know that I'll update my and Penana sites (I have them a little forgotten). Once I do, I'll post a post (;p) with all my sites so you can check them out.

Signing out!
xoxo, SilverHuntresses
