Chapter 17
POV Percy
I was in the throne room of Olympus, chained like a criminal. Why are we in chains? We didn't do anything, did we? – Perseus.
"I don't think so," I said.
After Zeus announced the gathering, flashes began to appear, signaling the appearance of a particular Olympian. First came Demeter, along with the smell of wheat fields. Then Hephaestus in a flash of fire. The next to arrive at one time were my father Poseidon, Artemis, Apollo, Hermes, and Hestia in the hearth, all of them either angry or sad about something. The last to appear was Aphrodite in a pink cloud that smelled too sweet for my taste.
"Zeus, why did you call us?" my father said angrily. Zeus just pointed at me. When my father followed Zeus's hand and saw me, he gasped. Like everyone else who arrived at the same time.
"What did you do to my son?" – no! " he roared, grabbing the Trident.
"Didn't you sense a disturbance in the force recently, brother?" – what is it? " he asked, but he said the last word with venom. My father paused, as if trying to remember. Then his eyes widened and he looked at me and smiled proudly. That's a good smile, right? – Perseus.
"I don't know, Perseus. I hope. all eyes were on me. "What?"
"Who are you talking to, boy?" Zeus said imperiously.
- With a voice in your head, why not? – they all stared at me like I was crazy, except for my father, Artemis, Apollo, Hermes, and Hestia. – I'm bored." – I didn't care what they did to us. Annabeth left me, and I'm an outcast in the camp and a nutcase that everyone shies away from and wants to get rid of. I have nothing left. My mother is about to have a normal mortal child, and if I am with her and Paul, I will only bring danger. Thalia and Artemis have hunting, father God, and he has other children. That leaves my cousin Niko, but I haven't seen him since the war. He can manage without me. "So what do you want to do with us?" To kill? Go ahead, we don't care. I said indifferently.
- Voice? Athena asked incredulously.
"Yes, why?" Any problems? I snapped. She thought for a moment, then snapped her fingers. Everyone looked at her.
"I know what that voice is. she began to explain. – it has begun to develop an aspect. then she added softly to herself, but everyone heard her – I didn't count on it.
My father took the floor. "Maybe you and Zeus can tell the entire Council what you did." - those gods who were before Zeus announced the meeting stared at him. – I know about your plan to destroy my son. - Plan? What's the plan? I don't know either – Perseus.
"Father, what are you talking about?" I asked him. He looked at me and started talking.
"Your dreams, the attacks on the camp, the betrayal of Annabeth. It's all their business. he spat angrily, looking from Zeus to Athena. So this is all their doing? For what? "Zeus, I declare war on you for this. "no," he said decisively. No, dad, don't. Zeus took out his lightning bolts and pointed them at his father.
"Nooo, don't. I shout. Artemis, Apollo, and Hermes leap from their thrones.
"I am Zeus SIM banishing Poseidon the God of the seas from Olympus. – then the father has disappeared and his throne has gone missing.
"What did you do to him, Zeus?" I roared.
"Banished for disobeying me." Now sit down, all of you–" – Let's continue the trial of Perseus Jackson. he smiled angrily as he said this. After Artemis, Apollo, and Hermes sat down, he continued – " for attempting to destroy Camp half-Blood and New York, and for intending to kill our children. Perseus Jackson is sentenced to Tartarus. Artemis, Apollo, Hermes, Aphrodite, and Hestia gasped in shock. – Let's hold a vote. "since Poseidon is banished to balance the balance, someone is excluded from the vote." – he, having examined all after what announced. - Aphrodite not is participating. She wanted to protest, but the look in his eyes made it impossible. She looked at me apologetically. I nodded to her, telling her that everything was fine.
- Now raise the hand who is behind the exile. – no, " he said. Zeus, Hera, Athena, Ares, and Dionysus raised their hands. If the others vote for me I still have a chance I thought. Yeah, dream on. – Perseus.
"Now who's against exile?" "only Hermes, Apollo, and Artemis raised their hands. Hephaestus and Demeter abstained from voting. And so I understood my fate was sealed. I will go to Tartarus. By tapping his weapon on the floor, Zeus opened a crevice that I think leads to Tartarus. Ares stood up from his throne and went over and grabbed it to throw it into the pit. Then Artemis jumped down from her throne and ran towards me, screaming.
"Don't touch it, Ares, or I'll kill you." she held her hunting knives in her hands. Apollo and Hermes were also up and dressed in their battle gear. Apollo also pointed the bow at Ares.
"Don't do this. "I'll be all right." - I smiled at them, and then turned my gaze to Zeus and said – and you and those who participated in this plan will pay for it. I will come out of Tartarus and take my revenge on you, I swear it on the river Styx." They began to look frightened. After that, Ares pushed me off, and the last thing I saw before I was swallowed up in the pit was Artemis running toward me with her hand outstretched.
