"Fear as light is to dark; in the presence

Of one, the other cannot exist. So wherever there is a place of fear in your life, think of one thing – even if it's just a thought you can think-where you can generate love to cast out the fear."

· Marianne Williamson.

Percy POV

I was expecting the lady in her usual physical presence, well she wanted to be our guide to her mom's realm.

I know she was waiting to show her true colours and torture us to death after Gaea needed our blood not we being alive. And she would of course oblige her sister's generous offer.

And sure the original shield of Hercules was with her as she informed after Hercules's mortal body was burned that thing returned to her.

Well she told her villain monologue that nobody could hide from misery blah blah blah. Well when Bob told her previously that we must return to mortal world she had licked her lips as if forming a plan.

Oh no Annabeth was trying to distract the poison lady not knowing how much pain she could cause to her.

I was ready to use my primordial power but the bad thing was I didn't feel any difference like running in my veins like the water power did. And I sadly remembered I had not practice yet after getting it as I did much to my inheritance.

Oh then I don't need to act much to show the indifference.

But Annabeth was dumb enough to say Achylys 'a minor godess', and how she being a daughter of Athena would not listen to her.

I mean seriously if Bob was with us Achylys might have harmed him. Annabeth was not a dumb blonde type before.

I prayed to Chaos and every gods to use my power in right time and successfully like , giving her taste of her own medicine I mean poison, spraying them to her haglike face, sure it would be tiring but it would be worthy for the torture I received in dream.

Well upon Annabeth's request I also started to bait the godess and she obliged. It was the only way to pass through the monster armies of Tartarus.

But I highly doubted she would give us it going against her uncle unless she had a plan of herself like kidnapping us, or squeezing out our blood or offer us a sacrifice and so many.

Well upon agreeing we went on the path and we stood by the edges of Void at , yikes. Achylys looked excited oh no.

And by the time she had applied her death mist to us and we looked like shadows. I could not count my fingers my body was dissolving, white smoke coming from my feet.

My needed powers seemed like tied to a knot I have to be ready as it is greater power than even my father Poseidon I think and remembering the pride in Pontus's voice praising me I assumed I held much power that made the deity equal to me so I concentrated but every time my eyes darted to the corpse like body of my girlfriend.

But surely Achylys had to be villain back then so she said, "Oh you are definitely not all right." I wanted to buy some time you know to prepare.

I said, "But we will pass unseen now? We can get to the Doors of Death?"

Then Achylys made clear her position , said, "Well perhaps you could, if you lived that long. Which you won't". Annabeth looked more ghostly than before.

Akhlys had spread her gnarled fingers, more plants bloomed along the edge of pit. The poisonous plants bloomed like hemlock, Nightshade,and oleander keep spreading towards my feet as a deadly carpet as her mom would have fun with me I guess. Akhlys continued "The Death Mist is not only a disguise you see. It's a state of being. I could not bring you this gift unless death followed true death."

Annabeth stuttered, "I-it is a t-trap". The goddess cackled, "Didn't you except me to betray you or you were the dumb blonde as you looks that I would leave my family for your race,tsk tsk tsk."

We agreed it, but I was trying to find my gut sensation the tug I felt for the first time in all those years ago to learn my water control silently.

Sure the poison created by Akhlys would take great energy. So I ignored the 'Misery is everything' monologue of Akhlys I suggested, "Yeah, yeah let's get to the fighting."

I drew Riptide knowing I am a smoke person ironically for now and she is a primordial level godess.

Well my blade made of smoke just floated across her like gentle breeze. Akhlys grinned, "Did I forget to mention? You are only mist now – a shadow before death. Perhaps you had time, you could learn to control your new form. But you don't have time. Since you can't touch me i fear any fight with Misery will be quite one-sided."

Her fingernails became talons, her jaw unhinged, her yellow teeth became like the fangs of the hags. Ha definitely a monster appearance.

Well she lunged at me, her clawa raked across my chest, and stung like boiling water. I stumbled to catch balance and mostly draw the primordial power of mine. Well I wasted my backpack for nothing. Akhlys would have managed to do something unless Annabeth had charged and screamed at the goddess's ear 'HEY' I think my behaviours were rubbing on her.

Annabeth moved better than me I mean she was not injured so. Well some of his old training must have paid off as I wasn't part of these, and we continued to fight as smoke oh fun.

Well I would mess with the grumpy hag's mind I yelled ,"Hey Happy." You know I am always famous for enraging the powerful immortals, but theoretically I am the powerful one being primordial of many things. I could find a slight very slight gut feeling in my veins and keep storing it inside my body to feel the pressure and to release it to take control of incoming poisonous torrents. I continued like ,'downright cheerful', 'Pleasant', 'delightful' then the godess threatened to kill us slowly and sacrifice to the Mother Night.

Oh I know I am the real scapegoat if I am captured. I continued, "Cuddly', 'Fuzzy, warm and huggable' not even thinking how someone would feel doing those things to the hag godess.

But Akhlys didn't want to have us time, on my part my tug was being greater and was itching to control liquids all any type though I made my face indifferent. She said, "A slow death, a death from a thousand poisons".

And all plants around her grew like ballons and exploded to trickle down green-white sap, collecting into pools but the sweet-smelling fumes made almost lose my concentration, I jerked my head to clear it.

Annabeth yelled somewhere in distance, "Uh hey, Miss Wonderful! Cheerful! Grins! Over here" but it was too late for distracting the godess and she didn't know Akhlys could kill her with poison within 20 yards with only smell if it is not for my primordial power. Well I concentrated now on the liquids running all around and it just just felt like .. water.

' I did it' I would yell in normal conditions but not in front of the godess she had striked us specially me heinously which I don't deserve , it's time for justice no I don't believe in revenge otherwise I would take leave after my training to beat down Gabe to gue when I was twelve.

So I fell to my knees to look intimadating, I would tell Annabeth clearly after the giant war end about it all. But not now. I succeeded as the warmth flowed through me and poison tide stopped. The fumes blew away from me to the godess. The lake of poison rolled towards Akhlys in tiny waves and rivulets, in better control by me.

Akhlys stuttered, "W-what is this?" I said, "Poison, your speciality right?"

The goddess coughed in the fume oh sure I can bet 100 drachmas that Akhlys is weaker than my primordial-Percy form. I mentally thanked Chaos for unlocking it. Well I imitated the voice of Ralph Fiennes as his Voldemort role to say , "By the time we will be gone you would die in our own poison godess." (P/N: I have watched the film after the battle of labyrinth in tv you know for demigods going to theatres would lead a massacre. Here I wanted to copy the dialogue Voldemort said to Dumbledore during the battle of the hall of Prophecies in Harry Potter Order of the Pheonix, well probably Annabeth didn't watch the film as she didn't reply or she was afraid of me.)

Akhlys looked horrified she tried to excuse but she was foolish not to know nobody messes with my family. Well Annabeth yelled ' Percy' , Annabeth looked more ghost like than before she was terrified of me oh crap she would definitely tell others never mind. She pleaded, " Stop..."

I was angry not being able to deliver justice. But you know I didn't want to lose my girlfriend thank you very much. So I had to release the liquids who were like begging me to take control. Again Annabeth pleaded, "Percy Please".

I bellowed, "LEAVE". The hag godess sped to the dark to receive the assistance of her mom. Oh crap double crap. Schist. Double schist. Annabeth pleaded , "Percy don't ever. Some things are meant to be controlled please." I subsided it saying ,"Yeah yeah okay."

We were in greater danger 'Night', oh she introduce herself as her domain. You know a secret when she wanted to get my attention when I was Tharros well re-watching it in dream I have to admit she is hot indeed and beautiful equally don't say it Annabeth. Again she was with her husband but here she is all lonely looking for company like.

Soon the temperature fell certain degrees. Well readers I am telling a secret to you expecting you would not spill the bins that, when I took the rein of the venomous liquids a rainbow coloured blob was hovering over me.

But Akhlys didn't see it nor did Annabeth. I mean it was faint and all but it was distinguishable.

I casually asked Annabeth, "Did you see it?" I didn't want to get in more crap than I already was. But probably Annabeth did not see it and must have thought I am hallucinationg from the aftermath of Akhlys's confrontation, she gripped my hand hard as if to make sure I was with her.

Boy I needed that when I was going to be plaything of Nyx the primordial of Night evil aspect or not. I hoped Nyx doesn't see the blob which I wanted to hide.

Well back to present the abyss seemed to exhale, I wonder if Nyx was doing this entrance to impress me.

I wondered aloud knowing very well that Nyx was around hiding in shadows probably watching me from different sides. I said ," She said something about feeding us to Night, what was that about is it the deity I am assuming or a black demon thing."

I knew the answer probably the children of Nyx, the monsters would feed on Annabeth and Nyx would quench her sexual desire by overpowering me and at the end killing me.

And there she was as a vast shadowy form erupted from the void, oh I wonder that being was talking with his future allies more than I anticipated.

Well Nyx said, "I imagine that she meant Night as in capital 'N'. As I am the only one." Oh what is the problem the Night family must have been obsessed with their titles that they introduced themselves to be third person.

Well I am in knee deep danger. I think I might have overpowered the more powered good aspect in Chaos's planet but then I was with full power and memory, even being the primordial of liquids is not enough to hold up with the evil aspect who should have some sick plans.

And boy did I mention her voice. She had a tone that a woman would use when she would have overpowered you and wanted her sexual desire to be fulfilled by you and you have no where to back away , just like this the feminine voice of Nyx purred. In this Annabeth made a gagging noise. And a dark beam was shot at her until it was too late, Annabeth's eyes rolled and she collapsed like a heap.

I rushed to her side and checked if her pulse was okay, thank god she was alive. Then a figure descended I think behind me.

Well turning back I saw her. Nyx Primordial of Night, mother of many evil things. But did she look like hag like no definitely a woman whom you would see in a magazine fashioning her beauty and all. She was almost my height or couple inches taller, her exposed skin was pale with fair complexion. Her hair was curly brunette with locks and curls. She wore a cloak which was just like the lighter down version of her father with faint hint of stars which you see as in a clear night sky, it reflects how much she was closer to her dad in power level.

I activated my primordial power knowing well I had to wait for her Annabeth from the trance Nyx put on her. Then we would storm the hell out of Nyx.

Well did I mention Nyx's eyes that was captivating, enchanting those obsidian black orbs held like silent invitation of raw beauty and power equally.

There was no way in Hades one can ignore her sexual approach. You know in old myths I heard Zeus was specifically afraid of Nyx. You know I think Zeus probably was attracted to the beauty of the primordial.

I mean I can not blame him after all if Bob said correctly my dad the faithful Poseidon had consorted with his grandmother the Earth godess, Gaea unaware or not, they even bore many children like Antaeus, Orion and who knows how much more. Well I don't even want to think about it, you know gross.

So if Nyx managed to bed me then I would have that with my great grandmother oh my family the mythological paternal one is eternally messy but in maternal one she is my maternal one but in no way in Chaos I will give away my virginity to the godess.

Well Nyx said, "You done staring at my perfect body , you know if you have agreed to my proposal to go with me in bed I assure you won't regret. You know for millennia I was waiting, waiting and waiting for someone to be with me. Eons passed my desires grew. I couldn't have that fun with my sons do I. Then the guy Kronos came handsome lad but let me tell your grandpa was shy probably grossed out to having pleasure with his perfect bodied aunt."

She purred again. Well then she relaxed her upperbuttons of cloak and loosened her battle armour. And her cleavage was better I mean I couldn't see it in my dream but it was in front of me I couldn't help but stare at it, just perfect body ,the desirable hourglass figure.

And she was descending from the sygian iron chariot, she finally set her foot down. I was like frozen I mean a enchantment must have did the mischief. Slowly gracefully she came to me like she owned me.

So when she was in front of me it took my all willpower not to look at her body well I had a sinking feeling if I agree with her she would undress herself and I know she is a primordial so she of course would not have a undergarment or upper just the cloak and armour.

She caressed my cheek, my jawbone oh she was seducing me. And I should have to agree she was good in it. But no I won't give her the pleasure.

I was thinking about making a liquid out of the blessing of Pontus which would be able to bring conciousness in Annabeth, I can't just leave her alone.

I could feel it forming in my body just like water it was circulating in my body. I would have to just release and well I couldn't let Nyx see my trick.

By the time Nyx jabbed her finger accusingly at my chest did I mention it hurts, and purred, " Perseus , oh my Perseus I know you are too much enchanted by my beauty my hotness I possess. Believe me you deserve this. And not so many are this lucky to have access to feel my body don't waste it hero. I know the dumb blonde would never be able to give you that so she would die anyway."

That's it, I thought I would not spare anyone insulting my family specially when the person is insulting my girlfriend. And my pull was almost complete, with one good splash Annabeth would be awake but I had to believe myself. Well Nyx was impatient she clutched my hand in vice grip I wonder how her soft fingers would be able to grip this hard then again she is a primordial and looks can be decieving.

Nyx said seductively in my ear , "Oh leave the Athena spawn already I would teach you what a woman desires, I assure you no-one else had touched my body and I will be soon yours. We would even negotiate with Gaea about it perhaps Tartarus also. Just gooo with me, walk with me already, you know it's rude to keep your lady waiting. "

Oh did she think I would walk in a date with her.

Well I jerked off my hand from her grip and splashed good amount of liquid which I brewed with my powers at Annabeth unnoticed by Nyx, I wonder if it's for my primordial one or I took the godess by surprise.

The godess looked shocked for a moment then screeched , "Di-d you just ignored my generous offer for an impossible quest and even worse a weak Athena spawn. Then so be it. You would regret it Perseus."

Then she disappeared to mount on the chariot by the time Annabeth came to senses.

Well Nyx hurled her horses at me, who bared their fangs. The godess lashed her whip a thin streak of starts like diamond barbs .

Well but Nyx didn't want her horses to eat us. Well now she was hellbent on killing us herself.

But we can't back away and to advance the doors of death we have to cross the godess.

Well Annabeth came with a witty remark , "Oh don't kill yourself, we are not that scary." Then I could see jealousy in Nyx's eyes yes you heard right the primordial who was the most powerful one was jealous of Annabeth oh it might work. Well I joined Annabeth saying we would not scare Nyx knowing it could go terribly wrong without a perfect escape plan.

Well Annabeth told she was not in the travel brochure that featured her daughter Akhlys, the arai the rivers of underworld but not her. I felt sorry for Nyx's anger eons of loneliness and near the presence of the evil being can turn anyone into bitter ruthless enemy or an insane, believe me I know.

Well Nyx was probably buying our idea as she exclaimed no demigod has come to see her, and she was sad. Well Annabeth's smart brain thought of Hemera being great which enraged the primordial further.

Well Nyx had much of our distraction she summoned most black winged Arai, a withered man named ,Geros or Geras I forgot and a younger woman in toga the godess of strife, Eris. Oh so much for Night family.

Well I wonder if we could hide behind just one shadow figure then the godess herself would not be able to find us.

Annabeth worked up probably same idea she said about we going to a restaurant mentioned in tour guide and go to the Doors of Death.

Nyx was too angry, jealous and might be confident to notice she just spilled the beans about our way to the Doors of Death. Well Annabeth told Nyx to have a picture with her favourite child oh great this would definitely work, I know it would be impossible for Nyx with having children of different breeds.

In search of 'darkest and Nearest to Night' a fight broke in well even Nyx could not see and wanted light hahaha. Well we did not have time so we jumped for the doorway far far below.

But sadly we didn't even cross the Mansion of Night and our pursuers were incoming. We ran faster.

But Annabeth was not so lucky she was going to drown herself in a different river of underworld and it must be Achraeon unless I pulled Annabeth back.

We were seeing the people we have failed the illusions made it look like we didn't do enough to save our friends family oh such bullshit, but it was the river of Pain, the ultimate punishment for the souls of the damned- murderers specially. Oh that's my booksmart girlfriend just like Google she doesn't miss any information.

Well we reached the edge to see the heart of Tartarus and we ventured the thousands of monsters I mean the monsters who joined battle of Manhattan were nowhere near the number here.

But thankfully Bob came to us saying he went diagonal to reach here like just for Titans. He hugged me he was happy for sure that we were alive. Annabeth kissed his immortal nose glad to see our powerhouse was back.

And the small Bob the skeleton kitten was with him. We went to take rest just to prepare ourselves for razing the hell out of the hellhole.

Annabeth went to sleep, she was tired. I took the first watch with Lapetus.

I told Lapetus about every details except me being a primordial and all. I doubt he would miss.

And surely Lapetus said in a low voice eyeing that Annabeth was sound asleep, "Your aura seems different now, I knew it would grow until the top but I didn't expect to grow that fast. You are just a level of primordial like. What didn't you tell me? "

I gulped and later I found myself spilling the beans about my blessings and all the Titan was a good listener he didn't even interrupt me in my rant he looked concerned.

Then he said, "Oh I chose my side wisely then I know you are special , and don't worry my boy I would take watch carefully. But I warn you your girlfriend might be different than before I couldn't place it but I am sure."

I swallowed a lump in my throat Annabeth would not join Gaea right because it would be a low blow to us.

I slurred, "W-what do you mean different ?" Lapetus gravely said, " As I said before I couldn't place it as it depends on the past of the demigods. I lived here for millennia to adjust to the darkness to the gloom heck I have reformed here but still it terrify me in this changing atmosphere. Surely it would damage a demigod like her."

I wanted to argue , "But I am just a de- " but I couldn't he was right I have to embrace the truth I am a primordial now I wonder if I can bless her a rainbow beam.

Well speaking of rainbow the blob was still following me like pet dog and that means it was following my orders. Upon saying this to Lapetus, he said that it was an amount of my aura but how much he could not tell. He said something like higher power was obscuring his ability.

Things would be worse in the incoming fight but we have to go on and that needs sleep. So after a reassuring nod from Bob the Titan I went to a dreamless sleep ha Akhlys is afraid of me and she should be.
