Percy's POV.
Oceanus looked like my father, he had the same color eyes however unlike my father his eyes were not kind, he had a beard like my father however unlike my father he had horns on his head. "Who summons." Oceanus didn't go any farther he yelled in anger when he saw me holding his wife by her throat.
"Oceanus I have single handily defeated your strike force that was sent to Prometheus's home and if you know about what I am capable of you should know in less than a minute I will drain Tethys of her powers unless you do something."
"If you want your wife to keep her powers you will come to me and fight me, if you accept you can fight alongside Tethys to see if you can beat me. I swear it on the river Styx that it will only be me fighting against you both no gods will help me."
Thunder rumbled in the sky. "Come on certainly the great titan of the sea can defeat me think of what my father would think if his greatest enemy killed his son the savior of Olympus." "How do I know you wont drain her powers before I get there?"
"If you swear on the river Styx that you will tell no one else about what is happening. And that only you will be coming I swear it on the river Styx that when you get here you wife will have every ounce of her powers. However if you bring anyone else I swear it on the river Styx that by the time you get here me and Tethys will be gone and I will be draining all her powers from her at my fathers feet."
"And I can promise you that your wife will never be water again." Tethys tried to talk to warn Oceanus but I gripped her throat tighter and that was not missed by Oceanus. I also felt that I had fully drained Krios of all his powers.
"This is a 1 time only offer Oceanus I know you will want me dead after hurting your wife but like I said if you come here it will be only me fighting you, and your wife." "Fine son of Poseidon I swear it on the river Styx that I will tell no one about what is happening right now and I will come alone."
Thunder rumbled in the distance. "How long will it take you to get here Oceanus?" "It will take me 3 minute to get there but know this when I am done with you your father will be witness when I end your life."
Oceanus cut the iris message and I sent a silent prayer to my father to immediately get my soldiers and Argus, and Mrs. O Leary, and Fang to get them to my island now or else they would be in danger.
I used my strange power to allow Oceanus to be able to enter and I water traveled us 50 miles away from any Hawaiian islands and farther into the sea so that no one would get injured. I felt riptide return in it's sheathed form on my back.
Within moments I felt the titan of the sea's presence nearby and when I knew he was near me I used my powers to make sure Oceanus, and Tethys couldn't magically disappear, or anyone else interfere. I was a hundred feet in the air when a massive whirlpool appear in front of me.
Oceanus was in his full battle armor. In 1 arm he held a trident while in the other arm he had a massive snake wrapped around it. "You know Oceanus if your wife would have been able to speak to you before, when I was speaking with you she would have told you this."
"Don't come husband he cant be killed by seeing a divine form, plus he has a power that stops us from flashing away in escape." I was mimicking her in a scared voice I was normally not this cocky but I was trying to make Oceanus reckless.
"Oh you also forgot Tethys to tell your husband that I also stole all the power from Krios, and Menoetius." Go on Oceanus try to see if you flash away in escape I promise you that you will see that neither of you will be able to escape until either I am defeated, or I bring you in front of the Olympian council and make you powerless."
I got a glare from Oceanus in response when he tried to water travel away. "Since when have you become this angry sea spawn?" "Well normally I would want to sit in front of a fire and have a cup of hot chocolate before story-time but I can make an exception this time since you and your wife are my guests of honor."
"Before I drain your powers, and your lovely wife's powers I will tell you. You see it all started when a titan of time with a Napoleon complex tried to kill me and overthrow Olympus. Then I certainly didn't get any happier when you tried to overthrow my father so I hope you will forgive me if I hold a grudge against someone who tried to kill my family."
"Then Kronos killed my girlfriend, you titans can't give a kid a break. Then here is what overflowed the cup. Next I find out that a group of immortal beings are again trying to overthrow Olympus again." I squeezed Tethys's throat tighter every few seconds and Oceanus looked like he wanted to attack me now except I had his wives throat in my left hand and riptide in the right hand.
"Oh don't worry Oceanus this isn't the fighting part after story time, I am just reminding Tethys that it isn't nice to interrupt me during story time. I will let you heal her before the fight, however I must apologize you see right now my hand is around 4 thousand degrees Fahrenheit which might leave a little burn plus I am preventing her from using her water powers to heal herself but I am afraid if you make a move to strike me during story time will be over and all it will take is 1 thrust of my sword to end her chances of revenge."
I watched as Oceanus got the message. "Now lets see who are these immortal people who want to destroy Olympus? Well there is you, your wife, Menoetius, Krios, Atlas, Hyperion, Echidna. Oh also her Chimera who by the way will be sad to know that it's master is vacationing in Tartarus right now."
"Also there is Medusa and her sisters but they are vacationing with Echidna, I also wonder how you and your team were able to bring monsters back to life that haven't been seen for thousands of years but we can talk about that later. I also seen some mysterious person if you could tell me who that is I would be much obliged." I saw in his facial expression that he didn't even know so I shrugged my shoulders.
"So those are the reasons why I am so mad. Plus I knew your crew would be coming here to retrieve Prometheus but you will be sad to know they failed. Did I miss anything Tethys? No well you have any more questions Oceanus?"
I was sure he would tell me no that way his wife wouldn't be in any more agony but he did ask another question? "How did you know they would be coming for Prometheus?" "Well I watched Echidna trying to strong arm Prometheus into joining but as you know she was left a little short short sided after the meeting."
"But because demigod dreams are so enlightening sometimes you gotta love them. But guess what your wife didn't want to put you in danger and the truth is if she would have stayed out of your group I would have been happy enough to leave her alone but when she tries to threaten to hurt me and my loved ones that made me a little angry."
"1 last warning if either you or your wife attack me before you heal her that will began the fight." I dropped Tethys like a hot potato into the water and Oceanus swooped into catch her and before he caught her I added 1 last insult at him to make him mad. "You know Oceanus, your wife is hot, maybe a little too hot right now if you get the message." I brought out my nemean lion's skin out of thin air which I still don't know how was possible and threw it over my shoulders.
A lion's head helmet appeared and as soon as I put it on it merged with my armor. The armor that covered my hands grew celestial bronze claws and I touched the spikes that were a part of my armor on my left side of my body.
I then summoned aegis in my left hand. I flew higher into the air to get a better view and I watched as Oceanus's hands glowed as he healed the massive burns that were on his wife. The truth is I really didn't like acting rude, and arrogant because it went against my nature but these 2 immortals cared nothing about the innocent's they were putting at risk.
Oceanus must not have been able to heal Tethys very much because when the glowing stopped there were still massive burns on her throat and neck. "Hey Oceanus if you both swear on the river Styx to pledge allegiance to the Olympian gods for the rest of eternity and turn your back on the other titans and the others who want to destroy Olympus I will heal your wife of all her injuries and I will make sure the Olympian's go easy on you both for your crimes."
"Choose wisely this is a 1 time only offer and if you fail I will bleed you dry of both of your powers and I guarantee the rest of your immortal lives you will both be locked up." From the look in their eyes I knew they were not going to accept my deal so I got ready for a fight.
"So you know the opportunity to accept has passed so don't expect to try and get the same deal if you lose." Oceanus tried to feed his wife nectar and Ambrosia to heal the wounds but nothing happened. I yelled out to them.
"It's to bad because I have something that would have completely healed her." I held up my hands and the gloves of Apollo appeared on my hands. "If you haven't heard the legends about these gloves is that they were created using gorgon's blood that could heal anything." Tethys must have gotten tired of hearing me talk because she weakly thrust out her hand and a 30 foot tall large wave formed in front of him and his wife and came rushing towards me but I just held out my arm and the water fell back into the calm waters.
I held out my arm and Thunder Terror shot out of my arm towards Oceanus. I powered my strike so that it would only affect Oceanus and his wife and not the sea life in the water because with the power of the lightning bolt would have killed any sea life in a 7 mile radius.
However that doesn't mean a wall of water would have stopped Thunder Terror it just meant no fish or anything friendly to me or my father would have been killed. Oceanus brought up his arm and a wall of water so tall came up out of the water that it nearly blocked my view of the sun.
Thunder Terror crashed into his wall of water, and I saw the water light up from the force of my attack. Before the wall of water disappeared I was already behind Oceanus and I smashed aegis into the back of his head. Even with the power of the strike it didn't do much damage to him and he turned with blinding speed and stabbed the empty air with his trident exactly where I was at moments earlier.
I hid my presence from Oceanus when I water traveled under the water. I was surprised at a certain power I got from Krios but I used it. I shot out my hands into the air and a whirlpool appeared around Oceanus and Tethys and shot them a half mile in the air just as a meteor shower appeared in the air raining down fiery meteorites into the sky.
I closed my fist that held riptide and the meteorites flew into the whirlpool most were only the size of a basketball or smaller but there were over a hundred in total. Oceanus and his wife created a 360 wall of water around them out of thin air to block the attack but they left the space under them unprotected and that was when I rose out of the water and summoned a 20 foot wide Greek fire bomb in the air between my hands and shot it up under there feet.
A massive explosion blew in the sky luckily I sent a mental message to all friendly sea life to escape and no sea life were harmed in the explosion. Oceanus was strong I would give him that if we were on land that Greek fire bomb would have created a new lake.
Tethys was blown apart from Oceanus from the explosion and Oceanus turned to try and catch her but 4 large meteorites crashed into his body causing him to fly into a well aimed kick. A 5 inch celestial bronze boot-knife pierced Oceanus's armor and caused golden ichor to flow out.
I quickly brought back my foot that hit him and I hit him 3 more times in weaker parts of his armor with my boot knife. I made the celestial bronze boot knife disappear when I saw tendrils of water sent from Tethys came behind me. 3 of the tendrils of water wrapped around my body and it began to crush me.
I brought my arms to my chest fighting against Tethys's attack. When my arms got to my chest I yelled out a battle cry that caused the ocean water under us to go crazy. I turned my head and looked a Tethys who seemed to be getting energized by some purple water that was bubbling around her.
Out of the water came 5 super sized sharks made out of the ocean water. The first shark went to crash into Tethys but her purple water made the shark bounce off of it like a rubber band. The second water shark followed the first and attacked her but this time after the shark bounced off the purple water began to lose it's color.
I flew through the air towards Tethys who momentarily forgot about the water sharks and she held out her right arm towards me and summoned a water whip in her hand ready to fight me off, but before she could make an attack my remaining 3 sharks crashed into her.
The first shark bit into her leg, while the other 2 attacked her arms. Golden Ichor started flowing from her wounds but out of the corner of my eye I saw a trident made of ice slice through the air and impale itself in the shark that had her by her leg.
The shark blew up in a shower of ice, and that gave Tethys the momentum to fight off the other 2 water sharks. I turned around and saw Oceanus 30 feet in the air above me glowing with a deep blue aura. "You want to make water creatures, spawn of Poseidon get ready to see what real power is." Water began to shoot out of Oceanus's finger tips and the water started to transform into rows of armored merman.
The merman like my sharks were completely made out of water but unlike my sharks the had weapons, and armor made out of celestial bronze reinforced coral. The merman yelled and flew through the air towards me.
I ducked under the first wave of merman cutting them in half with riptide, or disemboweling them my celestial bronze claws and each of the fallen water merman were destroyed in a spray of salt water. Oceanus was still making his army of water solders but if he wanted to play like that I will show him something interesting.
I felt the power of the ocean under my feet willing to bend to my will, and the power of the stars wanting to serve me and I laughed out loud as my mind figured out the type of power I had. My laughing caught Oceanus, and Tethys off guard as they were working together to make an army.
In the sky above us something began to glow so bright that Oceanus had to look up to see. The constellations became visible even through the midday sun. 2 constellations in particular glowed brighter and before my eyes 2 forms started appearing.
The first was that of a man in light armor who was wielding a bow. The second was of another male however he was in heavy armor, the constellations became physical manifestations of what they used to be. The powers of the ocean filled their physical bodies with energy, and their eyes were bright stars.
The constellations were that of Orion, and Perseus. They were only physical manifestations of their constellations however in my mind I saw that they had the attributes of their former lives. I summoned perhaps the greatest male archer that ever lived who used to be a half brother of myself. I also summoned the hero that I was named after.
Orion, and Perseus drew their weapons. Orion held a bow in his hand that resembled what the hunters used, and Perseus drew a sword that had the power of lightning flowing inside. I watched as the took off to fighting the army of fake merman.
The copy of Orion was slaying Oceanus's merman with lightning speed striking them down with arrows that went through their heads, or pierced their chests, and anytime they got to close he took out a hunting knife and killed them with equal precision.
The copy of Perseus drove through the crowds of fake merman cutting multiple enemies in half with a single slash of his sword. I watched as he punched a whole through the armor of a merman, and sent a lightning bolt through his fingers that surged through the first merman it encountered, and it caused a chain of lightning to destroy another group before he withdrew his hand.
I watched a deep scowl form on the faces of Oceanus, and Tethys, as their army was quickly dispatched with. Oceanus raised his hand into the air and I watched as hundreds of icicles appeared in midair aimed at the copies of Orion, and Perseus.
Oceanus sent the icicles flying towards them but before they could destroy my warriors I made a ring of fire appear around them that formed a protective barrier around them. Tethys continued to make more merman while Oceanus narrowed his eyes at me. "You are not as weak as I thought you were demigod, you have used a power that Krios only ever used in dire circumstances, however I know something about that power that you do not."
"The longer your pawns are in their physical form the more it will drain your energy." Oceanus stopped talking when something crashed into him from behind that caused him to go flying into the water. I looked at the thing that sent the titan flying and I smiled at it.
When Oceanus, and his wife Tethys's thoughts were focused on the copies of Orion, and Perseus I summoned another couple of constellations. I looked at the physical form of a super powered ram, the same ram that was the symbol of Krios.
The second constellation I summoned was that of the huntress who made her entrance by shooting 4 arrows simultaneously into the back of Tethys. I felt sad when I looked at the copy of Zoe, but I smiled at the thought that she was still doing good in the world even after she died.
When Tethys yelled out in pain her army of water merman faltered which gave my warriors time to finish them off. Orion switched his bow out for a powerful looking bronze club, and shield, and the clone of Zoe brought out a copy of her hunting knives.
I felt Oceanus coming out of the water aiming to stab me with his trident however before his trident could make contact I sidestepped and began hitting him with a combination of well aimed strikes. I first chopped him in the side of the next when his back was turned.
I then covered my right leg in fire as I round house kicked him, and then I ran into his body when he was doubled over in pain and the row of spikes that covered the left side of my body pierced his body. I saw the snake on his arm trying to find a weak spot in my armor to strike me, but before It could the ram, rammed into Oceanus's stomach which through the snake off balance, and its fangs pierced Oceanus's face.
I saw in the corner of my eyes as the copies of Zoe, Orion, and Perseus dueled with Tethys who was doing a decent job of fending for herself. Tethys blocked Orion's club with a shield of water, and in the same motion she landed a kick to the stomach of Perseus.
However Perseus caught her leg before she could bring it back and he pulled her into a bear hug. He began crushing her and when he saw the clone of Orion he dropped her into the swing of Orion's club which smashed into her lower back.
Tethys arched her back in pain, but during that motion the copy of Zoe stabbed her in the chest and her left side of her body with her 2 hunting knives. I had to take a deep breath because Oceanus was right when he said this power would tire me out, however the pro's of this power outweighed the cons.
My warriors were dealing massive damage to Tethys, and keeping her, and her husband separated, and unorganized. To keep myself energized I summoned a sleek barrier of water that covered my body like a secondary set of armor.
I felt a surge of energy enter my body as the water gave me more energy like an energy drink, however it would still be only a matter of time before I had to return the constellations to normal. In a fit of rage Tethys burst forward into her divine form which sent my solders flying in different directions. The golden ichor that seeped out of wounds slowly lessened, and she narrowed her eyes at me. I felt her aura of power strengthen but luckily my solders seemed unaffected by her divine form.
I ordered the ram to join the others, and it went charging through the air towards it's allies. In mid stride the ram merged with Orion and it turned into a pair of rams horn cestus. The 3 clones then went in for a second attack on Tethys but now that she was in her divine form she was much stronger.
Tethys blasted Perseus back with a powerful jet of water which caused him to crash into Orion, and when Zoe went close range with Tethys using her hunting knives Tethys summoned her trident. Tethys countered each of Zoe's strikes with the prongs of her trident and when she got an opening she cut the clone of Zoe across the face with a whip made of water.
Tethys's triumphant face went away when she saw the large cut that she caused on the face of Zoe instantly heal. Before Tethys could react the clone of Zoe thrust out a hand that closed around the throat of Tethys.
The clones of Orion, and Perseus appeared on either side of Tethys and they delivered a set of devastating attacks to Tethys. Firstly Orion landed a sickening blow to the face of Tethys using the rams horn cestus, and then followed by a kidney punch with the other hand.
Orion jumped back and his body began to glow with a green aura and I knew his clone was using the last of his strength. The an 8 foot long spear made out of ice appeared in his hands and he stabbed her through the side with the spear.
Tethys began to cough up golden ichor and I looked at the clone of Orion who bowed his head to me before his form began to shimmer and he returned to being his constellation. The clone of Perseus was the next to launch it's attack.
Firstly the clone of Perseus ripped out the spear that was made out of water from the exit wound, and he slowly pulled the spear out. Next he held his sword to his side and slashed outward tearing off a large chunk of Tethys's armor that covered her chest and opened a large gash on her sternum, and then his sword began to glow.
Perseus's sword transformed into a weapon made of lightning and he placed the tip of it against Tethys's chest. The sky began to dark with storm clouds, and a multitude of lightning bolts crashed in her body making Tethys's body to go limp in Zoe's hand.
The clone of Perseus bowed his head towards me before his body began to shimmer and vanish. Perseus's constellation returned to normal just like Orion's had and I looked to the clone of Zoe whose body glowed in a silver aura.
While still holding the limp body of Tethys in her vice like grip she stabbed Tethys's body with her hunting knife over 50 times with each strike adding more force, and after she pulled out her hunting knife for the last time she dropped the body of Tethys who during Zoe's attack returned to her normal form.
Before Tethys's body got out of range, the clone of Zoe brought back her leg and kicked Tethys in the side of the head with the power that came from a daughter of the titan of strength. Tethys's body fell but before it hit the water, I wished for a portion of Ogygia to appear. A mile long body of land appeared on the water just as the Tethys's body crashed into the ground. I nodded to the clone of Zoe before her body started shimmering, and returned to the huntress constellation.
All three of their final attacks happened in under 20 seconds and Oceanus was unable to stop his wife from getting thrashed. I looked up at the sky as it returned to normal and then I looked at Oceanus who stared at Tethys's body.
"I tried to warn you Oceanus what would happen if you didn't accept my deal." Oceanus looked at me with pure hatred in his eyes. The water around us began to bubble from Oceanus's anger and I knew that if Oceanus got the upper hand and I lost then he would make my death the most painful, and slow death that ever happened.
"You will pay a 100 fold for all that you just did to my wife, before I am done with you will be begging for the fields of punishment, but guess what demigod I am not going to kill you, I will torture you for the rest of eternity, and every time just before you die from thirst, starvation, blood loss, or from the pain I will deliver to you, I will stop you from dying just so I can torture you even more."
"Then stop talking titan trash, and show me what you got." I switched out riptide, for sea storm, and Oceanus smirked at my trident. "Oh did your little daddy give you a toy trident to play with, well lets see who's trident is better."
Oceanus held up his 7 foot long trident in the air and the water below us shot up wrapping around my feet and I felt myself being pulled down into the water, followed by Oceanus. I fought against the water and after I was 300 feet down below the surface I broke free, and I saw that I was face to face with the titan of the seas.
Oceanus's form began to change, and he grew larger until he was over 15 feet tall, and his legs were now tentacles. Without warning his tentacles shot out into different directions. While Oceanus stabbed forwards with his trident.
I began to dodge his tentacles and countering his attacks with my trident. I used aegis to deflect his tentacles and I was happy to see that his tentacles backed off away from aegis when they got to close however I was shoved backwards when Oceanus's trident grazed my left armor.
I yelled out in pain when his trident touched my body, and I felt the spot on my armor began to get colder. "Yes your father is not the only sea deity who can control the temperature of water, I can freeze anything I want."
Oceanus emphasized the point by making the temperature of the water drop by over 30 degrees, and while I was still dry, I was not unaffected by the cold. "Well you are not the only 1 who has tricks up their sleeves Oceanus."
I opened my mouth and let out a horrible yell that caused Oceanus to cover his ears. I felt the power of the wild fill my body and panic began to fill Oceanus's mind. Using his distraction I rushed forward through the water and began to stab at Oceanus with sea storm.
He began to block my attacks with his tentacles while still holding his ears. However as soon my trident came in contact with them they began to freeze over. I saw the snake on his arm began to flip out when I used the panic and it began to relentlessly attack it's master.
Oceanus was now blocking 2 forms attack and then I saw my opening. I stabbed Oceanus in his chest and when I felt the 3 prongs of my trident lodge in his chest I sent the full power of sea storm into his body.
Oceanus's limbs began to move slower as the arctic cold started affecting his body. I then slammed the side of aegis into the right side of Oceanus's head in a backhanded attack, while the snake still under my control started tearing off chunks of it's masters armor.
Oceanus then yelled out in anger which seemed to snap the snake out of my control and I felt the snake strike me in the chest sending me jumping back. I held my chest where the snake attacked me, and I pulled out a fang that was lodged in the armor where my sternum was at.
I gripped sea storm and then before Oceanus could stop me I flung my hand outwards sending the snake fang slicing through the water. Oceanus covered his right eye in pain when the snake fang lodged itself in his eye.
I had no idea if his snake was poisonous but I had no doubt in my mind that it would leave a mark in the morning. I gripped sea storm and then I made a slashing motion with it through the air and the water in front of me turned to ice.
I then kicked the wall of ice out to Oceanus which then turned the wall of ice into a barrage of icicle shrapnel. Oceanus while still holding his eye destroyed my attack but he was caught off guard again when a fireball crashed into his face.
I knew my ice attack wouldn't affect him so seconds after I sent it flying towards him I sent a fireball out as a secondary attack. I put sea storm back across my back and made aegis vanish. I looked at my celestial bronze claws and I smiled.
I met Oceanus close up and I slashed my right claw upwards slashing him across the chest with the 5 inch long claws. The snake tried to attack me but I caught it's head with my left hand/claw and I began to squeeze.
I swam behind Oceanus to dodge his tentacles and when I was behind him I attacked his back with my right claw further tearing apart his armor while stopping his snake from attacking me. Oceanus continued to try to beat me away but my earlier taunts seemed to have worked because he was only focusing on power, while my mind worked out a plan of attacks.
I pulled my left hand downwards. The snake in my hand was shoved downwards which threw Oceanus off guard, and when he was distracted I headbutted him right in the nose. My lion's head helmet cushioned most of the damage that I would have taken from doing the headbutt.
I water traveled away when Oceanus used all of his tentacles to try and capture me and then I water traveled behind him already with a Greek fire arrow in my hand that I summoned and I stabbed outwards into his lower back which was missing most of his armor and the celestial bronze arrowhead embedded itself in the titan's body.
I quickly back tracked because the Greek fire was set to go off when Oceanus pulled out the arrow, and I watched as the 3rd tentacle out of the 8 moved to his back. A large explosion took place as soon as the tentacle came into contact with the arrow, and Oceanus yelled in a mixture of anger, and pain. Right now my plan of attack was to keep a steady flow of damage going to Oceanus to stop his body from healing but also tire him out.
Before the smoke dispersed I reached towards my chest and pulled off the handle to my war whip. I snapped my arm forward which caused my whip to take it's true form and I watched as the row of drakon armor blades on my whip tore into the side of Oceanus's body ripping open flesh, and causing copious amounts of golden ichor to seep out.
I pulled my right arm back and slammed it down which caused the whip to slice of 2 of Oceanus's tentacles before it returned to me. I saw the body of Oceanus began to appear when the smoke from my Greek fire arrow dispersed.
Oceanus was hovering in the water head slumped forward. I saw the wounds on his body making no move to heal themselves and if it was possible for a titan to die of blood loss it would have happened. "You think you have won demigod? You think me the titan of the seas would go down this easily? I will show you the true powers of the seas."
Oceanus brought his head up and he started to laugh as the water around him began to churn. Water began to pour into the open wounds of Oceanus. I saw water go into the bloody disfigured tentacles, and the 3 foot long gash in his side.
In seconds Oceanus's wounds began to heal. The tentacles that were cut off rose up from the water and they touched to where they used to be. The tentacles began to fuze back together, and when he was fully healed Oceanus burst into his divine form.
The divine form of Oceanus was truly horrifying. His body was made up of the worse parts of sea monsters. His lower legs was now not just made up of tentacles, but his lower body was now made of a 20 foot long Octopus.
Oceanus also had 4 arms. 2 of the arms were now crab pincers. 1 of the arms was a shark head, and the last arm held his trident. His head still looked the same but he now had a helmet made of sharks teeth, and across his shoulders was now 2 snakes about half the size of him. But my mind registered something. While his divine form was now much more powerful, he wasted a lot of energy healing his wounds. By no means was he going to be any easier to fight but I knew that this was his ace in the hole, I also wondered how many times he fought my father in this form.
The 20 foot long snakes slid off Oceanus's shoulders and began swimming towards me. The first snake was completely blue in color, while the second snake was a larger version of the regular snake from before.
I brought forth the mark of the wild but the snakes were unaffected by my command. I felt other sea creatures willing to come and help me but they were no match for Oceanus, and I was not going to use them if I knew they would be slaughtered.
I snapped my arm forward making my whip slice through the air but the snakes nimbly dodged the whips. The blue snake came up 5 feet in front of me and when I moved to block it from biting me, it changed tactics and it used it's tail as a club smashing into my left arm.
The original snake swam behind me and it opened it's mouth ready to bite my head off if it could like a cherry tomato, but I caught the tail of the blue snake and swung it towards the original. My plan worked like a charm.
The upper body of the blue snake went flying right into the open mouth of the green, and red snake. Before either of them could untangle themselves I held out my hand towards them and Thunder Terror shot out of my hand and crashed into them.
The full power of Thunder Terror lit up ocean in a collage of colors. When the attack was done the shriveled up bodies of the 2 snakes fell deep into the ocean blowing up into a shower of golden dust before they were out of sight.
I held out my hand for Thunder Terror but before it could return the octopus tentacles of Oceanus shot out and grabbed me by my lower legs. I held out my hand extending my finger tips and before the tentacles could wrap around my chest Thunder Terror shot into my hands.
My body then acted as a conductor for Thunder Terror and it released it's power into my body. However I was unaffected by it's power, but Oceanus was still trying to strangle me and the electricity shot into his body.
Thunder Terror then began to merge with my war whip giving it the power of electricity. I had an idea that popped into my head and I started to whirl my war whip around my body. My war whip didn't hurt me but it combined into my armor covering every spot in my body in razor sharp drakon armor blades.
The handle of my war whip merged with my armor and when it was done I looked to my armor covered hands and I smiled because my hands were now surrounded in electrified razors, along with claws.
Oceanus had to drop me because the continuous surge of electricity caused his pincer arms to shatter. I sliced through the air towards Oceanus and I brought my arm out and like in a wrestling show I seen when I was younger I clothes-lined him.
My war whip lined armor collided with his chest which caused a sound to go off in the water that sounded like a thunderclap. The water bubbled as the electricity blew Oceanus 15 away. I pulled my hand back like I was going to punch the water but when I punched outwards a jet of water shot out flying towards the face of Oceanus.
The water however was combined with the power of Thunder Terror. Oceanus covered his face with a shield of water, but my jet of water sliced through his shield of water like it wasn't there and 20 thousand volts of electricity slammed into his face.
I was doing a great deal of offense to Oceanus but with each power attack I did it drained my energy even faster. The water was doing a great deal of energizing me and if it wasn't for the water I would have already been really exhausted from Krios's powers.
Oceanus followed my earlier motion and he moved to punch the water but instead his sharks head arm became real and it came to attack me. The shark to on a real body and it crashed into my body. It was nearly destroyed by my war whip armor but the shark bit my arm, and I felt my arm nearly break.
When I was distracted Oceanus sent a wave of icicles at me. I used Oceanus's shark to absorb most of the damage but I felt some of the icicles pierce my armor. 1 of the icicles cut a large gash open in my cheek, while a 3 foot long icicle pierced the armor of my shoulder and embed itself in my shoulder.
The fake shark dissolved into coral reef dust and then I looked at Oceanus as I pulled out the icicle in my shoulder. "I will give it you demigod, you are much stronger than the other demigods I have killed but that is where the differences stop, you will lose, and maybe if your father is nice enough and surrenders his domain to me I might give him back your dead body when I done torturing you for the next hundreds of years."
"You know what Oceanus I was going to be nice enough and not use this attack against you but lets just say I want you to be face to face with your wife for a little longer before I drain you of all your powers." I felt my mind wander into the water above me until it entered the limp body of Tethys.
Oceanus's head snapped up to the island where his wife's body was he yelled in anger at me. "What kind of magic is this." Oceanus couldn't speak any more because a solid object crashed into him from above.
Oceanus wiped his mouth of the golden ichor that spewed from his busted lip and he looked up at the body of Tethys. Tethys's body was under my complete control her mind was still out cold from her injuries.
Oceanus tried to reason with Tethys but all he got for an answer was her stabbing him in the arm that held his trident with her trident. I made Tethys summon a whirlpool of water around Oceanus and when he was caught of balance she sent large waves of water to crash into him, while I stayed 20 yards behind Tethys controlling her like the ultimate puppet master.
Tethys threw her trident into the eye of whirlpool and it pierced through the lower body of Oceanus. I made Tethys control her trident and it started pulling Oceanus into the mini island I summoned until her trident skewered Oceanus into the island.
Oceanus tried to fight back against my power over his wife but after a few seconds he must have sensed that his wife was like an empty vessel at the moment. The mini island I summoned knew that I was fighting an enemy and I ordered it to hold Oceanus captive.
Oceanus's limbs started sinking into the ground of the island, until his upper body was sticking out of the island like the statue of the woman on the ship of the Princess Andromeda. Tethys swam through the water like a shark towards her husband and she pulled her trident out of his body very slowly and then when it was out of his body I made her backhand her husband across his face.
Tethys the backed up and I was I went deeper into her mind where her stronger powers were. Tethys began to glow and 10 fake merman appeared like earlier but they were wielding swords. If the way I was controlling Tethys was like her being an extension of my hands, then the merman were an extension of my finger tips.
The fake merman began to punch, kick, stab, and slash Oceanus with their weapons, and their hands, and legs. I was moving my hands in the water controlling each of the merman, and Tethys, and in my mind I pictured an orchestra where someone led them.
I saw Oceanus's form start to flicker, and I decided to offer him a chance to surrender. "Give up now Oceanus and it will all be over quick and painlessly." Oceanus spat in the water, "You will have to do much worse then this demigod. I am not like a useless Olympian like your father where I cannot take pain."
Oceanus sent images into my mind of his battle with my father where I saw my father in a gaunt state as Oceanus, and his army tore apart my fathers kingdom. What Oceanus made me see made my vision turn red.
I swam through the water and summoned riptide in its regular form and I appeared behind Tethys who was less than 5 feet away from Oceanus's face. "Take this for your insult to my father." I plunged riptide through the rib cage of Tethys and her mind reawakened at the pain of my attack.
Oceanus thrashed around trying to get out of the island to save his wife but he watched as I started draining Tethys of her powers of her remaining powers. The slight glow that is always around an immortal that made them look so young and good looking started to fade from Tethys and in less than 20 seconds I saw her face age over 20 years.
Her hair turned from a shade of brown to gray. "Is this how you saw my father Oceanus, as a frail old person? Your comment did this to your wife, if you and your wife weren't so evil this wouldn't be happening but this is her kharma coming at you for your evil deeds."
I pulled riptide out when I felt that Tethys only had enough powers to breath underwater and she fell forward before she could fall against her husbands chest I snapped my fingers and the merman had Tethys in a full nelson and was dragging her back above water.
"Take her to the others and secure them." I returned riptide to normal and I clenched my fists. I started punching Oceanus in his stomach over and over sending more power of Thunder Terror into his body with each strike, and my last punch I shattered his sharks teeth helmet with a single punch, that caused shards of shark teeth to pierce his head.
Oceanus took each hit silently but with each hit he coughed up golden ichor. Oceanus was still in his divine form and I felt something in him strengthen. My island that held him like a prison began to break apart as he caused an earthquake to start on the island.
Oceanus broke free, and his tackled me with all of his strength and he threw me up into the air with tremendous strength. I stopped flying after 2 minutes and I saw Oceanus hovering up to meet me using a tornado made out of water.
"I was planning on saving this until the day I would overthrow your father and send him into Tartarus but you left me no choice." Oceanus held out his regular hand and he made his trident hover in a bubble of water and then a blue aura began to shimmer in his hand.
Inside his hand was a small vial of water but from here I could sense that it was no ordinary water. Inside the vial was something of immense power even stronger than Oceanus, or my fathers essences. "This demigod is my ultimate weapon inside this vial is the remaining essence of Pontus the primordial deity of the water, the direct personification of all water on the earth."
Oceanus uncorked the vial and before I could stop him he chugged the entire vial of water, and the effects were immediate. Oceanus's divine form began to completely changed. He went from a mismatch of ocean creatures to that of a regular man, but his transformation was something that would be forever fixed in my mind.
Oceanus now looked completely human. However I felt a power I never felt before appear. He now had a much longer beard, his eyes were half green and half blue. And his hair was pulled was longer. Oceanus's armor was completely regenerated, and his spear grew another 2 feet longer, but it changed.
His trident was now a double ended trident, and in the middle of the weapon was an icon of earth. "Oceanus opened his mouth and I now noticed that his voice changed like their was 2 people in his body speaking at once."
"This power is unimaginable if I knew it would been like this I would have used it long ago." Oceanus turned to look at me. But I saw his eyes change completely momentarily and the second voice took over.
"Son of Poseidon, I have been waiting for you to arrive. I am Pontus, I ruled the seas before Oceanus, and before you father were ever born. My powers are destined to be yours, however first you must defeat Oceanus, and claim your destiny."
"Wait Pontus are you the person who has been in my dreams whose items of power were stolen?" "No son of Poseidon that has nothing to do with my powers, however if you wish to succeed you will claim my powers as your own, before I gave up my physical body I put my powers in the vial that Oceanus drank it was meant for you to find but the enemy of the Olympians found out about my plans and told Oceanus about the vial."
"I cannot stay much longer because Oceanus is fighting for control, but before I go I will tell you that you can win this fight if you use your inner strength. If you win you will gain my powers but they will be unavailable to you until the time is right, even you will forget about what has happened here until it is time."
"We will meet again son of Poseidon if you win good luck." Oceanus shook his head and I saw his eyes return to the green/blue color. However when he began to speak I noticed that the voice of Pontus was gone.
"Are you so afraid that you cant even speak spawn of Poseidon?" Oceanus slapped his hand outwards and 10 waves of water shot out of the ocean and crashed into me. I tried to fight the water off but it was like a toddler beating a weightlifter in a game of arm wrestling.
The water crashed into me making me lose my breath, and then Oceanus used his water tornado to suck me up and send he was spinning me around in the air at over 50 miles an hour. I tried to send a large bolt of lightning using Thunder Terror but this time Oceanus summoned a shield made out of water that effortlessly bounced my attack back at me.
"You know what demigod now that I permanently have these powers after I crush you I will go after your father and I can torture you both together." Oceanus yelled out in the sky to Tethys. "I will avenge you Tethys and when the time comes you will have Poseidon's powers."
Oceanus sent me flying into what was left of my small island and I crashed head first into a pile of boulders. I looked up in time to see Oceanus raising his hands and 2 100 foot tall snakes made out of water appear towering over where I was.
The 2 snakes opened their mouths simultaneously, and jets of water shot out of their mouths. The jets of water hit the beginning of my small island carving out 5 foot deep holes while they were moving towards me.
I held out my hands and summoned to Greek fireballs and sent them flying into the heads of the snakes. A large bubble of water appeared in thin air where the Greek fireballs were and the bubble of water constricted around the Greek fire stopping the explosion from destroying the snakes.
The 2 jets of water combined into 1 and before it could hit me I summoned my own wall of water to stop the attack. Oceanus laughed and he flicked his hand which caused my wall of water to disappear in a puff of mist.
The pressurized jet of water hit me square in the chest driving me further into the ground. I summoned aegis in my hands and blocked off the jet of water before it could find a way to destroy my nemean lion's skin.
The jet of water at first pushed aegis into my chest but after a few seconds I moved my shield slightly which caused the jet of water go back towards the snakes. The 2 large snakes, and the jet of water transformed in mid air disappeared.
I clawed my way out of the ground in time to see Oceanus creating an army of fake merman 20 at a time until he stopped at 2000 thousand. "You see this demigod scum I am so powerful I can make an army so dangerous in a matter of seconds that in less than a day your fathers domain will be overpowered even without me fighting."
The merman dropped down onto the island all at once and they glared at me. "Lets see if you can survive long enough against my improved version of my army." The fake merman shouted battle cries for Oceanus and then they charged.
I held aegis up close and in my right hand I brought out 1 of my hunting knives. The first group of Merman crashed into me. Some tried to stab me with swords, or others tried to catch me using weighed nets.
I jumped over their nets, and dodged their sword strikes and when I got close enough to the edge of the island I was about to launch myself into the air at Oceanus but I crashed into a barrier made out of ice that suddenly appeared.
"I don't think so demigod, if you want a shot at me you will have to defeat my army, that is your first warning. If you try it again I will triple the number of enemies you have to fight, if you try it a 3rd time I will send a never ending army after you."
I turned back around to face the 2000 merman who waited until their master was done speaking, but I kept my extra eyes on Oceanus to make sure he didn't make a sneak attack. I ran back into the crowd of merman and began attack them with renewed anger.
I made quick stabs with my hunting knives hitting vital points in the fake merman's bodies, and then I rolled under nets that were thrown in the air at me. I tried to summon water whips to tear through groups of the merman but anytime I tried Oceanus stopped my water attacks.
"Sorry did I forget to mention demigod spawn that water powers are against the rules?" I knew what he was trying to do. He knew that if I couldn't use my water powers then I wouldn't be able to heal any wounds, or give myself more energy and then when I was to exhausted to fight he would strike.
I came up to a group of merman archers and the released a wave of arrows at me. The arrows seemed to go at me in slow motion, and was able to shadow travel to a safe distance. The arrows that were intended for me hit the other merman but I saw out of 1 of my other eyes that Oceanus didn't look impressed.
I had to laugh slightly at my predicament I challenged him and almost had him beat and then he brings out his ace card which turned out to be the powers of a primordial sea deity, that increased his powers by over 5 times, however it also increased his ego by that much.
I switched out my hunting knife for tombstone and I gripped the Stygian iron spear tightly in my right hand. If I was on the mainland I could probably summon an army of undead to fight his army however I was to far away to sense any undead.
The merman got tired of waiting and the formed a half circle around me cornering me against the barrier. When my back touched the barrier a sharp cold feeling went through my body as a warning. I cut a weighted net in midair as it was sent flying at me with tombstone.
The merman army moved apart as a group of 200 spear solders came forward. I knew I had to conserve my energy and shadow traveling to dodge every attack wouldn't help my cause. I took a deep breath and jumped into the air using the magical sandals.
I was 40 feet in the air I summoned my bow. I launched dozens of arrows into the bodies of the strongest looking merman, and when I saw that I was down to 400 merman I made my bow disappear and I brought back out my war whip.
The war whip came out of my armor leaving Thunder Terror in my body. I pulled my body into a cannonball position, and I dropped down onto the ground. The ground cushioned my fall but when I came in contact with it the ground shook as I released a powerful earthquake through the small island.
The tremors threw the merman off balance, or caused them to go flying into the air. I made quick work of most of the merman by cutting them in half with the war whip but when I was down to the last 100 merman I shot out my arm causing the war whip to circle around all the remaining merman pulling them together in crushing pile.
In seconds all the remaining merman were either torn to shreds from the drakon razors or crushed to death. The merman I destroyed didn't blow up in a puff of mist but I knew Oceanus's little game was over when he did starting clapping.
I put away my war whip and changed tombstone that was resting on my back into riptide and threw it through the air towards Oceanus. He just laughed and summoned another shield made of water but riptide just cut right through it cutting his cheek open.
Oceanus looked shocked that his new found powers were bested by a sword, and he placed his left hand against his cheek and he looked at the regular red blood that was dripping down from his hand. I reached my hand back to my lower back when I felt riptide return and I ran my fingertip against the flat of the blade.
Oceanus appeared in front of me and in anger he slashed at me with his improved trident. I held out riptide in a defensive motion. I was pushed back from the pressure of his attack. He stepped forward making me move backwards more and he continued to taunt me.
"You should have thought twice about attacking my wife and then challenging me to a duel." Oceanus swept his leg outwards trying to trip me. I locked my leg in it's current position to take the kick because if I jumped back to avoid the attack it would give him the opening to hit me with a devastating attack.
Oceanus's hit my leg with his full force and while it hurt like you couldn't believe my strength won out. I twisted riptide against Oceanus's hand to try the disarming technique that Luke taught me years ago the move worked and the double ended trident momentarily slipped out of his hands but he caught it in his other hand.
Before I could counter attack, I stabbed him in the stomach with riptide, but before 2 seconds could even pass he blasted me back with a flood of water and he pulled riptide out of his body and he tossed it into the sea water.
I laughed inside my mind because it would be less than a minute before riptide came back but I didn't want him to get suspicious so I pulled out my dual hunting knives. Oceanus moved to cut the lower half of my body off with the lower trident but I flipped over his head and on my way down I dragged the dual hunting knives down his back and then slashed outwards when I got to his lower back.
Oceanus backhanded where I was at moments ago but I thrown into the air not by his fist but by a 100 foot wall of water that cut through the ground where I was standing at. Oceanus pointed his trident at me and pressurized jets of water shot out at me.
I narrowly dodged each attempt after after his 3rd shot I felt riptide return. I tried to think about Pontus's advice about using my inner strength but I don't know what he meant about that but if I managed to get close enough to Oceanus I could use my strongest attack.
I knew I was completely out matched in water powers now that he had the powers of Pontus but maybe I could use something else. I didn't want to think about using Krios's powers again because not only would none of them probably stand a chance but it cost me to much energy.
I could attempt to enter his mind to make him mess up but that would take to much time to do and it would leave me open, plus with the powers of a primordial god in his body I would have no idea what it would do to me.
Oceanus began to rise up in the air by hovering in the middle of a hurricane that quickly began to grow. I am through playing games demigod, lets if I can make a child of Poseidon drown with my new powers."
The hurricane that he was in the middle quickly became that of a monster hurricane. It was over 400 feet tall, and over 5 miles wide. I couldn't even began to guess how much damage it would do if it hit Hawaii, or California and it was only getting bigger by the minute.
I held my arms out trying to break apart the hurricane, or at the very least push it back but Oceanus only laughed in response. "I told you demigod this is my ultimate weapon, even if you had your father here with you wouldn't be able to stop what is about to happen. I just wish I could see the Olympian's faces if they found out about my new powers."
I started shooting lightning bolts from Thunder Terror into the water hoping to throw Oceanus off balance but any time they got to close he just let his waves that started appeared block my attacks. Oceanus was staying still letting his attack grow larger, and larger, until he probably would have had a hurricane large enough to fully flood the Hawaiian islands, and most of the west coast if I let it happen.
I screamed inside my mind wishing for Pontus to tell me how to get past this but I knew if he was going to tell me how to beat his powers he would have told me when he first spoke to me. I began to make punching motions that sent a flurry of lightning bolts, fire balls, and Greek fire bombs into the water surrounding Oceanus and I watched as the water around him began to break away.
However of the water that was destroyed, or dispersed was quickly replaced with more water. The hurricane that Oceanus then started to form multiple water tornadoes that circled around us. I saw in the corner of my eyes iris messages starting to appear to see what was going on but they were quickly destroyed by the hurricane before they could fully form.
I knew I had Iris's help to try and let me work in peace without being watched but there was only so much she could stop before rank was pulled by the council. I also felt my fathers power in the waters around us trying to calm the ocean down but because of my oath his powers were currently useless against this storm.
I felt myself being pushed back from the strength of Oceanus's attack and before I knew it my arms were in the water. Once the water came in contact with me the water began to freeze over. Keeping my arms in place however I used all my power over fire to began to free myself and after a lot of fighting I pulled free from Oceanus's grip.
If I water traveled behind Oceanus I knew I would have lost control of his attack and wouldn't have been able to stop his from flooding Hawaii. I was nearly brought out of my senses when from far away I heard the sounds of news helicopters coming to investigate the sudden tropical storm that appeared out of thin air.
No doubt a sudden hurricane would draw the attentions of mortals, and demigods and everyone on Olympus probably thought my dad was super ticked off. I began to sweat from the exertion, but I thought of all the people that depended on me. I knew it would only been a matter of days before Oceanus started a war with my father that either would have helped out the mysterious person pulling the strings or Oceanus could have decided with his new found powers that he wouldn't need the others.
I felt the familiar tug in my stomach and my hands began to glow with the power of the seas. I began to push the hurricane back but in my head I knew that if I didn't fully stop Oceanus's attack I would lose and he would just start his storm all over again.
I then thought of some of the other powers I could use. I brought forth the mark of the wild which filled my body extra courage. I also brought forth the blessing of Ares which caused a dark red aura that filled my body with extra strength, and anger which would push me not to give up. But then I also opened up the eye on my arm that held all the powers of Menoetius the titan of anger and rashness, which merged with the blessing of Ares.
I heard Oceanus laughing from behind his side of the water which caused me to lose control of my emotions. I flew into the storm which caught off guard. I summoned myself in a barrier of fire to heat up the water, and with my powers over water the fire that surrounded me remained unaffected by the waters.
I slammed into Oceanus and proceeded to punch and kick him while dodging the attacks of his double ended trident, and while he was focusing on stopping me from draining him of his powers with riptide he momentarily forgot about his storm.
I slammed the hilt of riptide into the Oceanus's nose, and then I shadow traveled to his side and in my left hand Thunder Terror appeared in the form of a dagger and I stabbed him just below his left armpit when he tried to backhand me.
I sent the full power of Thunder Terror into his body to such a degree that I knew if I won this fight then Thunder Terror would need a long cool down period before it could be used again. I swam backwards when Oceanus stabbed where I was standing moments ago and I saw him clutch his side in pain as the full power of what could be the master bolt surge into his body.
I swam forwards when he was distracted and I put my hands on the back of his head and slammed it down onto my knee and then I appeared behind him and I wrapped him in a bear hug. I used all of my strength that I got from Hercules, the little bit of strength I got from Atlas, and the powers of Menoetius, and the blessing of Ares gave me and I felt his armor began to break.
With how I squeezed him from behind Oceanus was not able to move his arms enough to attack me with his trident, or motion the water to attack me, and all the while the aura of fire that surrounded me prevented the water from helping Oceanus.
I continued to add pressure to the bear hug until finally all the armor that covered Oceanus's upper body broke away. The tropical storm that Oceanus summoned began to break apart, while Oceanus was trying to break free of my grip I bashed my head in the back of his over and over.
The blessing of Ares, and Menoetius's powers stopped me from getting hurt, and I saw his head be began to swell from my attacks. Now that he was in a different form his legs were no longer squid like so it seemed he couldn't transform them back to throw me off of him.
I eyed the remaining patch of the island and I pulled Oceanus further into the air and then I fell backwards in a way so that both Oceanus, and myself were falling head first towards the island. I gained control over some of the water and used it to propel us forward and when we were 5 feet from the island I threw him forwards while I stopped in the air.
The quarter mile island that was left standing before what I did just broke in half from the strength of my attack, and then I threw riptide into the space where I through Oceanus, and I heard a gasp of pain. When the dust cleared I saw that Oceanus was laying on his stomach and riptide pierced his lower back.
Oceanus tried to will the water to pull riptide out of his back but with his powers dwindling fast I now had the power to gain control of the water. Oceanus's new form began to flicker, and I watched as slowly he started returning to his normal form.
I started feeling the similar rush of immense flow through my body. But then I sensed Pontus's voice return inside my mind. "You did great son of Poseidon, you knew that you would not be able to beat Oceanus using your water powers so you used your other powers to strengthen your skills in close combat."
"Be warned though in a few moments my powers, and my mind will leave your body until you are strong enough to control them." "Wait Pontus shouldn't I be strong enough to use your powers since my body is strong enough to house the powers of a titans?"
"You may be immortal son of Poseidon but with my powers mixing with the titans powers for to long it would only be a matter of time before your body would burn away from the combined powers. You are getting stronger, and I promise when the time is right my powers will be yours, and my mind will stay in your body if you ever need guidance."
"Will anyone know about what has happened here with your powers being released against the world?" "No because Oceanus's body was not meant to house my powers so he didn't have full access to my abilities at the time, however if you had not succeeded it would have only been a matter of time before his body would have become accustomed."
"I may have no physical body right now but I still have a good deal of power, so when our conversation is over, I will erase your memories of your knowledge of me, and I will do the same to Oceanus so that no one will know what really happened today. When your mind takes back over you, and Oceanus will only remember you both fighting, and you winning the battle."
"Will I still be able to get his powers then?" I heard Pontus laugh in my mind. "Yes son of Poseidon your body, and mind will be able to merge with Oceanus's powers just like you did with the others, and you will be able to do great things, but I must go now because if I don't your body will began to start burning away son of Poseidon."
"If I have time to ask why do you keep on calling me son of Poseidon if you are so powerful shouldn't you be able to know my name?" "Yes I know your name but you never asked me to call you by that, I was just being formal. Good luck Percy Jackson you will need it for what is soon to come."
