Chapter 1: Fall of the Giants
3rd Person
The final battle raged in Greece. Casualties have taken a toll on both sides, bodies of fallen heroes laid strewn across the battlefield along with mountains of monster dust. Blood and monster dust were scattered in the air, clouding the vision of everyone on the battlefield. With every casualty, the gods and demi-gods grieved, however the Giants side were impassive, hardly caring about their losses. Along with Gaia, Porphyrion was the only giant left; his siblings had been slain during the earlier days of the war, in Rome. In Greece, his remaining siblings fell, Pelours, Eurytus and Gration. Porphrion showed no pity towards them, they were weak, weak creatures don't deserve to live. Their earlier invasions on Rome and Greece had failed, due to the valiant efforts of Annabeth, Frank, Hazel, Leo, Piper, Jason, Nico, Reyna, Thalia and the leader of them all, Percy Jackson.
Percy POV
The situation was grim, waves and waves of monster advanced against our ever dwindling number of demi-gods. I watched in anguish as another fell to the onslaught, flames lit in my eyes as I singled out the killer, a dracaena. Lifting Riptide, I sliced a hell hound, wincing as it cried in pain, an image of a slain Mrs'O'Leary flashed across my mind. I quickly trudged my way through the monster dust, with a battle cry I charged straight towards the monster, ducking as it swung its sword towards me. Quickly I sliced my sword upwards, effectively cutting the dracaena in half, avenging my fallen ally.
A loud boom went off in the near distance, as Porphyrion stumbled under Zeus's barrage of lightning bolts. His attacks were cut short as Gaia imprisoned the Gods in cell of earthly tendrils. Although hard to see, I spotted as Jason, Hazel and Annabeth tried to make progress, dodging the king giant's attacks as well as stumbling towards him. Leo, Frank, Nico, Reyna and Piper were still recovering from the assault in Rome, leaving the remaining five of us to defend against the onslaught. Thalia and the hunters were busy defending Olympus, the original Mount Olympus. My eyes widened as I saw Annabeth flying into the trees, quickly followed by Jason. Hazel continued to ride Arion, whom was struggling against the Gaia's power over the ground. I gasped as Arion stumbled, causing Hazel to tumble of the horse, knocking her off unconscious.
I raced towards Annabeth and Jason, their breathing were shallow, a small trickle of blood running down their forehead. My throat felt hoarse, it hurts, it hurts a lot to see your friend and girlfriend like this. As ruffled up as they looked, I knew they would live, thus I diverted my attention to Hazel. The first thing I heard as I approached her was the sound of Arion cussing.
That stupid Earth women! I can easily beat Porhyrion if not for that stupid son of a bitch.
I frowned, "bro" It felt weird calling a horse my brother, I mean how can my father end up having a horse as a child, weird right? "Calm down before I am scarred for life." I finished, still having funny thoughts off my father giving birth to a horse. I mean Tyson actually partly resembles a human, but Arion… All I can say is what the heck?
After that internal debate, I finally remembered about Hazel, quickly rushing to her side. She had a big nasty bruise on her temple, but otherwise seems fine. All my injured friends, all these bloodshed, all these children, taken away from their friendly by some evil monsters, it felt wrong. I felt angry, useless and guilty for not protecting them. My eyes flashed dangerously red as I lifted my head and glared at Porhyrion, a glare that could match Thalia's. This was the Giant that had injured my girlfriend, harmed my friends and ruthlessly slaughtered many heroes. This is the Giant that is going down.
A rush of energy came rushing into me as I charged towards the monster. The loud crackling sound of electricity crackled beside me as Porhyrion tried to strike me down with electricity. I zigzagged across the bodies of the fallen, determined to kill him, determined to end this bloody war. Filled with adrenaline, I struck the Giant's thighs, causing him to roar in pains as he stumbled forwards. Golden ichor poured out of the wound, as Porhyrion tried to regain his footing. Before he could regain his footing completely, I summoned a tendril of water from the nearby sea. Following the motion of my arms, the tendril of water wrapped around the Giant's neck, forcing him on the ground. A approached him slowly, Gaia hindering me along the way. I smirked as I climbed upon the giants chest before plunging my sword deep into his chest, into where his heart would've been, for if he had one. Porhyrion roared in pain before swiping me off his chest with his arms.
Before I had time to react, I was sent smashing towards the ground, Riptide left impaled in his chest. I cursed as a migraine appeared, my vision blurred and I was left winded. Slowly I crawled back up, reaching for a sword of a fallen monster. In front of me towered an enraged Giant, his club raised over his head, ready to end my life. I heard the club come whistling down, in its deadly arch. On the last second, I rolled to one side, jumping on the club, almost losing my footing to the killer migraine throbbing in my head. I let myself smirk as I jumped off his club, landing on his shoulder before quickly thrusting the unfamiliar weapon into his throat. Why wasn't he dying?
I shook my head as I forgot the help of a god was required, sweeping across the battlefield I saw the Olympians imprisoned in Gaia's grasp. They were making progress, but won't be out for another five minutes, five minutes I don't have. Porhyrion stumbled, causing me to fall of his shoulder, landing with a roll that broke my fall. The Giant was withering in pain, but definitely not dying. I groaned in despair, my only hope was to hold for another five minutes, something that I knew was impossible. Just as the Giant was about to recover, a bright flash appeared behind the Giant. Behind Porhyrion was my favourite Olympian, Hestia. She flashed me a smile before sending a warm blast of heat towards Porhyrion. Porhyrion cried in surprise as his body was enveloped in flames. I watched satisfied as he tumbled to the ground.
"Mark my words Perseus! My mother will avenge me, you shall die a painful death!" Porhyrion bellowed before his face crumbled and his remains scattered into the air. I heard a screech of rage in the near distance as Gaia screamed in fury.
"I should've killed you when I had the chance you stupid boy!" Gaia roared as her earthen body formed from the ground. Earthen tendrils surrounded her, her aura of power sent shivers down my spine. Gaia was fully awake. The hundreds of tendrils launched towards me, I had no escape. I was going to die. Unless….
I closed my eyes and concentrated on the molecules in my body, ignoring the whistling sound of death as it came closer to me. I concentrated on the water in the molecules, slowly deconstructing them, turning myself semi-solid. What I'm doing, I am deconstructing my body so that the molecules in my body become molecules of water in the air. I've practiced it only a couple of times, however I've never managed to do this in such a short amount of time. Although I didn't feel confident, I continued deconstructing my molecules, just like Poseidon had taught me. Come on focus Percy!
The thoughts of my friends spurred me on, managing to complete the procedure when the tendrils were just inches away from my chest. The tendrils met nothing as I became a cloud of water molecules, leaving a surprised Gaia. Taking advantage of her surprise I formed behind her. Constructing my molecules together was much easier as like a magnets, they were attracted to each other, fitting together quickly. I drew Riptide from my pocket and with a flick of my wrist, uncapped it. Before Gaia could react, deadly celestial bronze had sliced her in half. To my surprise, she just laughed. Her body just reformed as a tendril smashed into me.
Gaia has control over the Earth, she is the Earth. As long as she is connected to the Earth, she cannot truly be slain. A brilliant idea crossed my mind. Groaning as I stumbled back on my feet, I closed my eyes and sensed for nearby water molecules. Using my powers, I clustered the water molecules together to form a pool of water around Gaia, causing her to lose her connection with the ground, she is now connected to mud, something that would do her no good.
With a sudden crack, the tendril cages holding the Olympians broke loose. With her body served from the Earth, Gaia's powers have dipped significantly, giving the Olympians that extra boost in escaping their cages. It was now or never, I dashed behind and impaled Riptide into her chest. "Blast her now!" I yelled
"But Percy, you will-" Poseidon objected
"Now!" I insisted, it was our only chance, killing her, even if it costs my life is essential.
"Perseus is right, it's now or never." Athena butted in.
"But….. Fine." Poseidon sighed in defeated; grudgingly he lifted his trident and awaited Zeus's orders.
"On the count of three, one, two, three!" Zeus ordered. As he finished the countdown, the gods blasted Gaia with all their godly powers in unison. I braced for impact, flying into the air. The last thing I remember was the dreadful metallic smell of blood, and a pain, worse than when I bathed in river Styx, arching up my spine. Then I blacked out.
So, how was it? Please review, it will make my day. BTW I am currently rewriting my other stories as they were absolute crap. I am probably going to quickly finish off my other story before I start posting my rewrites. Well hope you enjoyed!
