Percy was feeling bored, and when a young god was bored nothing ended well… like the time that Percy was talking to Bellona… he thought she would've made her kill herself… or the time when Daddy Zeus was at the Winter Solstice and Percy wanted something to play with ... ! He had taken all the Power of Symbols of the gods, but they had gone back to the owners, after all gods couldn't steal each other's powers… so banished from the room Percy once again went to the arcade game room at the mall, listening to the summoning of the man/ immortal he had met three weeks ago.
The one with black curly hair, golden eyes, and enormously powerful aurora, which was hidden, yet he Percy still felt, he was today dressed in a business suit and was leaning on the wall.
"So... are you a rogue god?" Percy asked and cocked his head to the side.
"No little one, I am not," Kronos said and passed a leather ball and nodded to the hoop.
"No powers allowed, every time you get it into the hoop, I will give you an answer and you can ask a question every time I fail to put it into the hoop. Deal?" holding out his hand Kronos watched as the boy put his hand in.
"Deal."
Percy was confident that he was going to win; he had been playing this game all his life, because his family loved to play the Olympics, kind of ironic, if he said so.
Olympian gods playing the Olympics.
"3… 2… 1… GO!" both immortals bounced the ball they had, and Kronos watched as Percy bounced it in a pattern.
Side to side, then between his legs, that was neat.
Finally, the young god lifted his hands, the ball rested on his fingertips and his wrists were slack yet had enough grip, and he lazily flicked his wrist and the ball went into the hoop.
Using his powers Percy made the noise of the crowd going wild.
*AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH*
Kronos was aware of other people watching them, cold feel the stares drilling into his back, trying to see his face. But he stared ahead and watched Percy.
"That was a good shot," he commented and almost expertly followed the moves.
"Thanks, I have played since I could walk?..."
Kronos knew the confusion of being suddenly alive, yes his mother was a bitch and had not really cared for him, but it had been confusing just knowing all the sudden, he watched as the smiling god put more coins into the machine and the bright lights of the basketball game lit up and mortal noise echoed out of the game.
"So why are you here?"
"Eh? Oh, I just get bored and leave Olympus, I never left to come here before… usually went to see my other dads. You?" Percy asked.
"I didn't want to stay home, and Zeus doesn't know I am out."
"Papa Zeus! Ha! He got mad at me for doing… oh Chaos! That was funny." Percy broke into laughter mid sentence making me curious.
"What?" I ask.
"NOPE! Shoot!"
The game got intense and the crowd behind them cheered them on. there mortal voices blending into back noise, unimportant, but the young god was beaming and waving at them, that made them shout all the louder.
He took the shot and the score was: 325: 322
Kronos was losing by 3 points.
"No one's made it this far," they both heard a mortal say and was fast-ly talking into his mobile, "kids so good, Should get him on the school team, than he can go to the finals and then collage and be on the national teams." The guy on the phone was making Percy feel ugly, here he was playing a game with his friend and these mortals were pestering him, yes it was nice to have the attention, but right now he wanted to be alone.
"Let's go eat out?" Percy asked frowning at the mortals.
Nodding Kronos took the child's hand moved away from the crowd who patted their backs and congratulated them, and they left with a flash. Kronos took them to Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare, in Manhattan.
It was one of the most expensive-restaurants available: Percy had lots of dessert, because most of the food was sea food, and he was a son of the sea, Percy couldn't bare the thought of eating his subjects, so vegan he was, though he didn't entirely mind some chicken or turkey every once in awhile.
Kronos on the other hand did not mind and had Lobster (named Steven) served with veal ravioli and foie gras
It looked good but the god would not eat it no matter what.
"I am not going to eat it, Kronos" he said the waiter had smirked at him and gave him a glass of water and walked away.
The restaurant was finely lit up and very tidy and was a five star restaurant.
"I should bring my sister/aunt here! It is awesome!" smiling the god ate more strawberry cake.
"It's my birthday tomorrow; want to meet at the pool?"
"How old?" Percy asked.
"Billions of years, I am immortal, I was born before all the Olympians." Kronos smirked and saw the god nod.
"I will meet you at the pool at 6 pm. Goodbye Kronos" with a small golden light Percy was gone and Kronos was left to pay the bill.
"So… what are you going to do with the young god?" Iapetus said and walked with his younger brother once Kronos got back from his, what did Percy call it? Playdate.
"You don't need to know." Kronos said coldly.
"Yes, I do! You Kronos are the king of Othrys and there is a war coming, Ananke and the Fates know it, we all know it. It is going to be a fight for the Throne of Eternal Power." Iapetus said and the king watched as all his brothers flashed into the room.
"I will wait until it is his 12 birthday, than we move," they watched as Kronos closed his eyes and then opened them. "Anyone touches him or harms him will die, I need him in the plan."
"Your using your emotions, close them. We don't have time for it." Oceanus said.
"I HAVE ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD! YOU WILL LISTEN TO ME! I AM THE KING!" Kronos said and shoved his older brother against the wall with his strength and had his scythe at his throat.
Oceanus frowned but accepting defeat against his brother, he knew what could happen if he refused, Tartarus that would be horrible…. "Yes, my king" he said reluctantly.
