Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson
LAST TIME:
However as a last ditch effort to protect herself she threw a right hook which connected but it didn't much as phase Percy as he grabbed the scissor in her other hand and yanked them out of her grip. He simply stood up and admired the scissor which cut the string of fate for a moment before they too also disappeared by being absorbed into his hand.
"Thank you and goodbye fates, I guess I could say without you I would have never imagine such a power was possible with the fusion of the monster I demised the most." He said as he starred down at his body.
"But I must leave you to your own, I have nearly spent four hours in here and the end of the 5th age grows near. I wish you luck in the last hours it has left." He said as he gave his wings one good flap and was sent shoot at a speed of 700 mph towards Zeus's kingdom where the four element gods of the 2nd age here gathering.
NOW:
YEAR 2072 BC:
LOCATION: Scandinavia
PERCY POV:
I awoke to a massive headache that made it feel all of Olympus was landing on me as it fell from the sky. All I could do was groan in pain as I slowly reached up to my head to find my arm suddenly stop and the sounds of clinking chains echo. I just slowly opened my eyes to find myself in small room chained to a metal chair, the room itself had zero sources of light but thanks to my night vision ability I had I could see clearly.
The room was small about 5 cubic meters and the walls were made out of metal as well, but just like the chains I could feel a small power coming from the metal. I instantly knew this was a godly metal of a sort and that it was nearly unbreakable, damn gods and their metals. However the room did have one very thick looking door that had massive locks on it. But as I looked around I looked down to find my chair was melted to the metal floor, I just grimaced at the sight.
It was like this cage was made specifically for me since I could even touch metal mana talk about a fatal weakness. But as far as I could tell these chains that strapped me to the chair were magically enchanted as well as being already nearly unbreakable. As I examined myself though I noticed I was still in my torn clothes from my fight with Freya…wait if I was caught after I fell asleep.
"Freya!" I yelled but I got nothing but a loud echo from my room as I began to tug at my chains but as I did suddenly they all began to retract into the chair. They all receded into small holes in the chair as I tried to fight against it but whatever was pulling them was stronger than I was. Soon my chained wrists, legs, and neck were all as tight against the chair as they could as I growled at the neck piece.
I was not one for collars anymore, after Ares captured me he forced me to wear one after a while and ever since then I haven't been so found of them. But as I struggled to move in the chair I hear a couple of clicking sounds as my eyes found the door as it was being unlocked. I just starred as it slowly opened up revealing it was at least one meter thick as it slowly groaned to the side as it opened up letting in a stream of light.
"Well I am surprised you are awake, I gave you enough sleeping potion to put down a god for a month but here you are awake 3 days later. I must say you have one very interesting body Perseus." Said an all too familiar voice as I just glared at the face of Odr as he smirked as he walked into the room. I just took a deep breath and gathered some mana in my lungs and summoned fire in them as I let out a torrent of flames directly at him as it lit up the room even more.
It was only for 3 seconds and the flames wasn't hot since they were red and my body still wasn't fully function as far as I could. But as I finished my flame breath I began to cough violently as I felt my throat burning from my currently mana move. Note to self; use flame breath as often as I can so my body adapts to not burn my throat when I use it.
"Nice try but that was pitiful in the least." I heard as I looked over from my left to see Odr completely unharmed as I tried to growl at him but I only ended up coughing up blood on myself.
"Ah you must be wondering why your flame didn't reach me, there are many things in this world that I enjoy but the most I enjoy are talismans." He said as he reached under his shirt and pulled out a dragon scale that was on a small chain.
"You see this little thing is completely useless against godly magic but against mana it is the ultimate shield." He said as he tucked it back into his shirt.
"You see it has the magical property to deflect any and all mana moves directed towards any wearer of it. You could basically say that it is a perfect shield created just to use against you." He said as he walked forward and suddenly dealt a very strong right hook to my face. Because my head was locked to the chair because the collar my face absorbed the whole impact.
I was dazed to say the least as I felt blood pour out of my mouth as I watched Odr shake his hand in pain as he grimaced a little. I just slowly brought my head up and looked right in his eyes, I just made out the best growl I could muster as suddenly the air in the room began to swirl violently as I made it do so. But he just stood their unharmed as I watched the wind pass around him like water does a rock in a stream.
"I just told you-!" Before he finished his sentence he came in with a left hook and hit me again as my head was snapped to the left hard as I spluttered blood across the wall to my left. At the same time the air I was controlling died down instantly as I coughed up more blood and even spit out a tooth. Though I hate to admit it he had a good punch when he tried.
"-It was useless." He said calmly as he blew on his knuckled a little as a small amount of gold blood trickled off them.
"Damn your skin is tough." He said as he looked at my bleeding face.
"Well that won't be an issue in a while, Hoenir come inside." He said as I looked to the door to find a man with a black cloak come inside with a box and chair that he dragged behind.
"Perseus this is Hoenir god of silence, he will be treating you to a divine course of torture that I have made myself personally for you. Hoenir I want a report every 6 hours got it." Odr said as the man nodded as Odr did the same.
"Good not I want you to break him, I want him to squeal like a pig that he is. I want this room painted with his red blood by the end of the week. You don't have to worry about him dying either so don't hold back, but when this week is up I will put on a show for him to fully break him." He said as I raised an eyebrow.
"What kind of show?" I managed to croak out.
"Oh you will find out when you see it, but I will give you a hint. It does involve one traitorous slut." He said with a growl as I my eyes widened.
"You so much as touch-!" But I couldn't finished as I went into a coughing fit as blood splattered all over my legs. Odr just looked back at me and scoffed as he continued walking as the door slowly closed the door leaving Hoenir with me. As the door shut and the darkness encased the room suddenly a candle was lit and set on in the corner of the room. It was just enough to give the room an eerie glow.
"Why are you working with that man?" I croaked out at Hoenir as I watched him remove his cloak. He had simple features but his face was that of a soldier and said he had seen much, but not a word came from his mouth as he set the box on the chair he brought in the room.
"Right god of silence forgot." I mumbled as I felt my throat wounds slowly closing as I looked over at him. It was going to a while before I could use my throat properly again and I felt that he had the same item that Odr had.
"Just because I am the god of silence doesn't mean I don't speak." He said as I found his deep voice kind of interesting due to his features.
"Really? Then tell me why are you working for Mr. I-am-a-faggot?" I asked him as he made a small laugh.
"I am working for him because he saved my life one time and I am returning the favor." He said as he looked at an interesting looking contraption that didn't look like it would be nice to have it used on.
"By torturing the person that Odin himself appointed to stay in Asgard and protect Freya." I said as he glanced back at me then back to the box.
"Yet here you are captured by the very god who you must protect Freya from, pitiful if you ask me." He said as my anger grew.
"He uses tricks so cheap that even Loki himself wouldn't use them in battle, if he wasn't a Norse god then I bet he would fit in perfectly with the Greek god Ares. Both are so similar in their cheap way that sometimes I cannot tell the two apart." I said
"Indeed his tricks are pitiful but in the times such as now a pitiful trick is what keeps some from being alive and dead." He said as he turned around with a knife in one hand and a glass of black liquid that didn't look so tasty.
"This water is a special import from Greece within it is the water from the Acheron itself…you will be drinking this." He said as he came closer to me with it as I glared at him.
"You so much as touch me I will force you to drink it yourself." I said as I felt my body tense as he looked at me with an eyebrow raised. But he seemed to see that I wasn't going to open my mouth for the liquid as he sighed, seeing as forcing my mouth open was going to be a unneeded hassle for him.
"Fine then I will get it into you one way or another." He said as he turned back around and after a second I saw him fiddling with a few things until he turned around with a new item in his hand. It looked like it was glass tube with a metal needle on the end. But I could also see another metal part inside the glass tube that looked like it move. But to confirm my suspicion as he pressed against the moving metal piece as some black liquid inside shot out of the metal needle.
"What is that?" I asked as he looked at the contraption in his hand.
"This is a syringe." He said as I noticed it had numbers on the side as well.
"A what?" I asked as he laughed.
"You know for being all powerful human you sure are dumb, no this guy makes consuming liquid not necessary. You see it bypass's the mouth and goes right into the blood stream, a nifty little invention I made myself. First time I have used it but I guess you could say there isn't much you can really use it for." He said with a shrug as my mind seemed to think otherwise, the possibilities of getting medicine into a humans blood stream faster was a massive bound in medicine at the current time.
"But for now less talk and more screaming." He said as he began his way towards me as he grabbed my head and pushed it the side to expose my vein in my neck. But also to keep my head in place as he aimed the so called syringe towards wide open vein, but as the needle met my neck it didn't puncture the skin. At this I just grinned as he pushed harder but still the needle wouldn't puncture my skin.
"What the hell is this?" He asked me as I chuckled.
"After living for more than 2000 years with a body like mine you learn that there are certain areas on the human body that need to be protected more than others. But with my body's ability to adapt and negate past forms of death you can alter your body to avoid destruction of these areas. Let me tell you after cutting my neck and other vital points open nearly 1 million times my body has made it so that my skin and muscles around that area is so hard not even a sword can make them bleed."
Though my skin was tough I knew it could still be cut if there was a powerful enough swing to it, that limit though happened to be about a normal swing speed at the point. But I knew over more years of killing myself in such a place eventually my skin would be impenetrable in that place. However that was only my neck and vital places, my normal skin such as my chest, legs, and other places out in the open however still could be cut by any weapon.
They would take a much longer time to harden like my neck and vitals but this was enough for this point and time. But as he seemed to struggle to shove the needle into my neck I used all the strength in my neck to rip my head from his hand. My strength was more than enough as he seemed to trip he was putting so much force into the needle. With that he tried to correct his balance but I didn't let him as I smashed my knees since I couldn't move my ankles together.
But the force between my knees was enough to break a bone in his leg that had I managed to catch in-between my knees 'thank you Monkey king for training me to this point'. This in turn this made him scream in pain as he hands flung up and let go of the syringe in the air. I focused on the syringe as I followed it with my eye until it was in the perfect position. With a snap of my teeth I caught the end of the syringe in-between my teeth and then I looked at Hoenir as he sat up clutching his leg in great pain.
"Unlock me now and you won't get the needle inside you." I said as he looked up at me like I was joking but then I saw fear in his eyes. Nobody wanted the waters of the Archon running through their veins I could understand that. But I could also see that he knew I could spit the syringe with such a force it would impale him.
"J-Just give me a second." He said as he reached down to his belt and grabbed a ring of keys, slowly he reached up and placed one key inside the socket of my hand shackle. But then he tried to attack me again but I was quicker as I shot the syringe out of my mouth as fast as possible at him. But the place it hit was a little painful to look at even for me as the needle of the syringe hit his eye and emptied all of the liquid of the Archon into his skull.
He just began screaming hard as his hands shot up to his head as he ripped the needle out of his eye. But as he did the needle decided it wanted to bring something along for the ride as with ease his eye was ripped out of his socket. I just grimaced at the site as he began to scream even more as he rolled around on the ground as golden blood and black liquid poured out of the wound. But slowly he came to trembling stop as he finally stopped moving on his back as I watched the golden blood pool in his socket as his body trembled.
"Sorry dude." I said as he didn't respond as he laid their motionless as his body trembled in pure pain as he seemed like he couldn't mentally handle it anymore. I guess the Archon was more powerful than I had ever imagine it to be, note to self don't ever mess with the great rivers of the underworld.
But as I looked back to my cuffs I noticed the key was still in the hole but it was on the top of the shackle. With ease I twirled my hand around and reached up to the cuff and easily unlocked it as I set my hand free. Over the next minute I unlocked myself as Hoenir twitched on the floor as I finally unlocked my las lock as I stood up and stretched. I then looked on the ground to find the syringe with the eye still on the end as I reached down a picked it up.
I just examined it as I slowly pulled off the eye and tossed it onto Hoenir's unconscious twitching body. I then made sure the syringe was empty and took off the needle which unscrewed from it. I then placed the now harmless item inside my pocket to give to my mother later, I knew she would love this thing to no means end.
"Again I am sorry but you attacked me so…yeah." I said as I stepped over him and went to the door as I looked over it. I noticed it didn't have any key holes but from the size of the door I knew the hinges were its weak spots. I just slowly backed up and decided breaking it down was the best option at the time. With that thought I began to gather mana from the air as I slowly exhaled and closed my eyes as I felt more mana pool inside my body adding to my already massive amount.
"Tier 21 air mana move, storms strength and body." I said as I felt the air mana I absorbed be released into my limbs as it felt liberating. But with my current mana supply inside me I could keep this going for about 10 hours, as I said before my mana supply had greatly grown since I had reached enlightenment and Chaos increased it with her powers.
"Time to open a door." I said as I cracked my knuckles and threw my first punch.
ODR POV:
I watched Freya struggle to try and remove the chains bounding her to the bed in my room, I just sipped on some wine I had managed to buy off one of the venders. Wine was a delicacy and much better tasting than mead was, but as I enjoyed the fine glass Freya just whipped her head towards me with a pure glare of hatred.
"Odr let me this instant." She demanded as I sighed and shook my head.
"That I cannot do, you see I have a plan that I have formulated over the past few months. You see after so many humiliating results of me trying to win you back I finally came to the conclusion that asking you to come back isn't going to work. I also realized that you had started to form emotions of love for you little guard." I said angrily as I swirled the wine in my glass as I watched Freya fidget as she was embarrassed about the true I just told her.
"I don't know what your-." But I cut her off as I slammed my hand on the table as she flinched as I looked up at her.
"Do not lie to me you slut! I have watched you two and your reactions around one another to know that you love that monkey! I see the way you look at him and how he looks at you! But you are mine and mine alone, I will not have anyone else loving you besides me!" I screamed as the table cracked under the force of my hand as she shook a little in fear. I just slowly calmed myself as I ran a hand through my hair to calm myself down.
"I am sorry about that, but do not lie to me Freya. Or I will be forced to teach you a lesson you won't ever forget." I said as she gulped as I looked over her body, unlike that monkey I had Freya cleaned up before I tied her up in the bed. She now wore a beautiful almost see-through night gown and she smelled like morning dew.
"I understand but please let me and Mortal go, I beg of you if you do that I promise to stay by your side forever. Just please don't hurt Mortal." She begged me as I saw her eyes on the edge of tears as I sighed.
"You care too much for that man for me to let him live, also as of right now I believe Hoenir is prepping him for a show in one week." But at the mention of the god of silence Freya just paled as she remember Hoenir was known as a merciless person when it came to torture. He was once a great warrior but now he has a darkness in him that was endless if he was given a plaything.
"W-What show?" She asked me.
"Why the show of our remarriage of course, in one week I plan to bed you and mark you once again in front of Mortal. Hoenir is breaking him physically for me already and when I am done with you during the show he will be fully broken mentally and physically." I said as a cruel laughed came out of my mouth as I bellowed at my marvelous plan. But I was interrupted by a chuckled as I looked over at Freya as she looked at me darkly which made me shiver.
"Mortal is much stronger than you will ever be, his mind is like a mountain while yours is a pebble. His strength is like an ocean while yours is a stream, he will not be broken now or ever." She said to me in a deadly calm voice as I got enraged. I just shot up from my chair and knocked over my table as I sped over to the bed and suddenly gripped her hair. All she could do was scream in pain but I was defiance in her eyes that was never there before as far as I could remember.
"I will make you squeal like a pig when I fuck you in front of him, I will make beg me to fuck you into oblivion. I know you heat is starting soon from experience, but with the help of some herbs I found I will force you into a heat so strong you will beg for anything to fuck you." I said in a cruel voice as she suddenly spit in my face as I reared back as I backhanded her as hard as I could as she let out a whimper of pain.
"That is that only way someone like you would ever get some." She spat at me as I was about to hit her again but suddenly a loud bang. I just slowly turned to a wooden door leading to my basement that I faced. Suddenly another bang sounded as it seemed to shake the building a little as I had to gain my balance. Then another and another bang sounded that sounded liked Thor's thunder as it shook my whole house. Then I heard a laugh come from behind me as I turned to see Freya smiling.
"Like I said he is stronger than you by so much more than you can imagine, all I can say is lets just hope there is some of you left to be judge by Odin." She said as I lifted my hand and stuck her again but much harder as I watched a light amount of golden blood trail down her lip as her cheek perfectly gold.
"You will pay for this I swear." I said as I was about to strike her again but suddenly another loud bang sounded again but this time a crash was heard. Suddenly my basement door broke open and out flung something massive that made me duck and move out of the way. As it did fly through the room it sailed inches centimeters above Freya as flew at a high speed. With a thunderous crash though it struck the wall with a great force as it completely blew it out and went through a few more walls until it came to a stop.
I just slowly stood up and slowly looked over Freya's very surprised form as I located the object that was sent flying. I just gazed upon the metal door to my personal dungeon that had five fist prints in the door that was completely bend inward. Then I slowly turned around to face the completely destroyed doorway to my basement. It was still dusty as hell but I could still see a figure slowly emerge from the ruined hallway as the air suddenly cleared.
Out of the destruction stepped Mortal as I could almost feel the air around me go to him as I watched it dance around him as if he was part of it. He just calmly looked in my direction as a sneer appeared on his face as the winds grew wild.
"Odr…" He said but then he noticed Freya on the bed who was still a little spooked at the near death collision with the door. In an instant he was at her side as suddenly he made a downward slash at her chains with his hands. With that a gust of wind shot out and cut the godly chains with ease as well as the bed and the floor below it. The gust of wind actually created a gorge in the ground 2 feet wide and 10 feet deep.
"Freya are you alright?" He asked her as I just watched the two as she starred at him like he joking. She then proceeded to hit his arm as hard as she could as he winced.
"You nearly killed me with that thing!" She yelled at him as he looked where she was pointing at to find the door across my yard.
"Oh…" He said as she sighed but then did something that made me blood boil. She suddenly threw her arms around his neck and forced him to bend down as she planted a kiss on his lips. It wasn't a small one either as she held him down for a few seconds and finally let go as he looked wide eyed at her. He just looked at her like an idiot that he was as she gave him a loving smile.
"Now get him." She said as Mortal slowly turned to me as his cold expression returned.
"You hurt her didn't you." He said deathly calm, but before I could speak Freya spoke.
"He hit me twice and threated to rape me in front of you." She said as a sudden emotion of fear was raised in her voice. I just then realize this wasn't fake as she began to actually take in all that happened in the past few minutes. All of it was so close to happening she simply lost it in a fit of tears as she clung to Mortal like a little whore.
"I will kill you." Mortal said as suddenly a fear spread throughout me as Mortal slowly pushed Freya behind him as he face me.
"Freya call someone to come and help you, I will deal with this rat." He said as his fists suddenly caught flame as a sick smile spread across his face.
"Let's see how effective that talisman of yours really is." He said as he charged me.
THIRD PERSON POV:
"So have any of you see Freya as of lately?" Asked Odin from his throne as all the gods sitting bellow him looked around at one another and shrugged as he sighed.
"Frigg have you seen her?" He asked his wife who sat beside him in his own throne as she shook her head.
"I have not seen her but a week ago when we had tea." She said as Odin nodded.
"Have any of you checked in her home?" He asked as they all shook their heads as he face palmed.
"Why do I feel like I live with a bunch of idiots? Oh great Chaos please tell me why." He asked the sky as looked down at the gods.
"Have any of you ever thought of checking inside her house?" He asked them as they all shuffled uneasily.
"But sir it is forbidden to enter another god's house without the consent of its owner, you are the one who laid down that law weren't you?" Asked Thor as Odin just sighed and nodded
"Indeed I was but at least one of you must have knocked?" He asked them as they nodded.
"Did you hear anything while you passed by?" He asked them as they seemed to think about it.
"Well when I went by on Friday after mother visited I did hear some loud pants and gasps from her house." Loki said as all eyes turned to him as Odin nodded.
"Well then that proves it, over the past week Freya must have been sleeping with Mortal. That means that the current betting pool of Freya sleeping with Mortal is officially over!" Odin said as all the gods groaned.
"Remind me why this even became a betting pool?" Asked Frigg who all but gladly accepted her winnings due to her guessing the right amount of time it would take for the two to sleep together.
"Normally Freya is active in the community and does her salon thing, but as of this whole week nobody has seen her or Mortal so out of curiosity someone asked where she was and that brings us to now." He said as he took his own winnings as everyone else was groaning about having to pay up.
"I see but I hope she and Mortal finish up soon I am in need of a haircut and she is the only one who does it just right." Frigg said as she looked down at her hair as Odin laughed.
"If I can guess right I would have to say that after those three years those two have built up enough sexual tension to last a few weeks. I think you are going to have to wait another week for your hair to be cut my queen." He said as she kissed her hand as she blushed a little. Suddenly though a massive explosion erupted in the side of the throne room as a massive blast of wind and dust was blow into the room clouding everyone's vision.
Instantly Odin was on his feet as was Thor and Loki as they stood protectively in front of their father's throne. The rest of the gods were on high alert as well as they backed away from the dust cloud of dust. Quickly however wind from the outside began to sweep away the dust since they were so high up in the building. But as the dust retreated it quickly revealed a grueling sight. In the middle of a crater on his back was Odr himself.
He looked like he had had a mountain giant step on him and beat him up for day and then finally shit on him to say the least. His armor was ripped and destroyed in multiple places even dented to a point you knew it had broken bones to get into that position. His face was another story completely as it showed the signs of being beaten profusely, golden blood flowed like water down it as his left eye was entirely closed shut it was so swollen.
But the worst injury to him was the fact that half of his right leg was missing entirely. It was cut off at the knee and it looked lit was it burned closed but in the most brutal way. You could tell because his pant leg was still on fire as green flames licked at his skin. In total Odr looked like he had been put up through hell and back. But his eyes showed something none of the gods had ever seen before. Pure fear ran through his eyes like a mouse being hunted by a cat, he had the expression that he wanted to die rather than be caught by this man.
This man in question though stood with one foot planted in the chest plat of Odr as it slowly bend the godly metal inward in hopes to crush Odr's chest. His arms tried to cling to the man's foot but they didn't do anything to stop the foot as it bent the chest plate like it was a toy to him. But the man stopped just millimeters from completely breaking the chest plate as Odr still had the look of fear on him.
"I have to keep you alive, you are lucky I have to or I would have splattered your body all over the gardens of this city." The man standing above Odr said as he looked up from the man towards the council of gods.
As he did they all instantly recognized this man as Mortal, but right now he was giving off an unknown power of immense proportions. It was like a god was just gone into his divine form right in front of them. The air around the gods even felt in control of Mortal as if this was his area of control. But at a closer look the gods began to notice a unique set of armor and weapons surrounding him. His skin was covered with a fine layer of super condensed wind which took the form of Greek armor.
The next thing was his hands were covered in a find layer of Greek fire that seemed to form gloves like any armor would around him. Around his feet were boots made of lighting itself as they seemed to shock Odr into unconsciousness as Mortal stepped on him to walk closer to the gods. Next was the 8 fifteen foot spears of ice floating around him like a hand fan would, finally was a mysterious looking black ball in the middle of the ice spears that gave off a very dangerous feeling.
But I the next second Mortal began to dissolve the items around him until finally he was left armor less and weaponless. As well as his power level returned to normal as he just gave a thousand watt smile to the gods in front of him.
"Odin the all father I have brought a traitor to your feet to receive punishment." He said with a full knee bow in front of Odin as he just slowly nodded.
"Mortal what was that?" Asked Loki as he ran up the human and examined him to see if he could pick out what those things were.
"That was mana of this word being put to use at its finest, however I suggest you don't use so much mana at once." He said as he suddenly collapsed on his butt as he began to breathe heavily.
"Damn I used to much mana I am going into relapse." He said as he slowly laid down as the other gods crowded him as the guards weren't sure what to do. Either chain up Odr or Mortal but not both.
"Mortal tell me what happened." Odin said as he came to his side.
"Freya and I were captured by that asshole for the past week, I just woke up and managed to escape. He also had an accomplice that was the god of silence, he is still alive but missing an eye. Freya is at his house right not and need some help, someone please help her. I promise I will tell you it all in detail later but Freya needs help." Mortal said as the gods nodded as three of them teleported away.
"Man I need some sleep." Mortal said as he slowly began to close his eyes.
"Relapse takes three day's rest okay, just tell Freya I will be awake in three days." Mortal said before he passed into unconsciousness.
"Do you know what this means?" Odin asked himself but Thor answered him anyways.
"That the betting pool that Freya and Mortal are going to sleep together is back on?"
