I'm so pleased to write this story. It's going to be great!
The two figures turned around...
The figure in black was Thanatos. The one in white looked... strange. When she moved it seemed like there were four layers of faces. A child, a teen, an adult, and an old lady. The one in white smiled. "Hello," she said "I am Phanes" Goddess of life". Everybody gaped at the two. "Hold up," said Nico "We were told you were kidnapped". The Life and Death deities laughed. "We just did that to get you here" said Phanes, "Yeah, you could probably tell I was the one who hijacked the oracle," smirked Thanatos. The five started muttering amongst themselves.
"Anyway!" clapped Thanatos "The reason we got you here, we're going to bestow you some sweet gifts,". They looked at each other and smiled. "Stand before us, Perseus Jackson, twice hero of olympus son of the sea god, child of the big three," The two said in unison. Percy stepped forward. Life and Death raised their inner arms and their palms glowed a mixture of colours. "Perseus Jackson, we bestow upon you the power of Oceanus. The sea titan," they announced. They each in turn got blessed by the two gods. Annabeth got Koios, Grover got Rhea, Thalia got Lelantos, and Nico got Iapetus. The five glowed with energy. Their eyes blazed with power. And suddenly Thanatos snapped his fingers and they were enveloped in darkness.

Percy Pov:
I woke up in bed. Was it all a dream? No, no it wasn't. A voice came into my head. I yelled in surprise and fell off my bed. Two voices laughed in my head. I sighed. Thanatos and Phanes? I asked aloud. Yeah kid. You can call us T and P though. They both answered.
I looked around and realised. I'm not in my cabin. Where am I? I thought. Don't worry kid, we brought you to your new base! *Fanfare noise*. I chuckled. I seemed to be wearing my regular camp clothes, so I stepped out of my room and walked down the hallway into the main living area. It had a high ceiling and large windows covering two right angled walls. There was a modern kitchen with an island adjoining the living room. Holy shit this place was awesome. On the sofa was my beautiful girlfriend reading. The rest were there too. I sat down on Annabeth's left, and Grover joined us from the kitchen on my right.
Rachel was in the kitchen making pancakes. Grover was about to dig into his stack of vegan pancakes, when suddenly there was a white and black flash. I turned to see T and P emerging from the bedroom hallway. "Hey, everyone" T greeted, "We forgot to mention, some other people are going to join your group,". The two gods clapped their hands and another black and white flashed in the hallway. Grover dropped his pancakes in shock. Percy grabbed them before they hit the ground. "My hero," Grover said joyfully. "I only caught your pancakes," replied Percy. "Yes heroically," Grover answered smiling. The group turned to the bedroom hallway and the other group entered. They were Leo, Piper, Will Solace, the Stoll brothers, Clarisse La Rue, Miranda Gardiner, Pollux Vinther, a girl called Honesty Deleuran, and Bianca Di Angelo?!
Nico, with tears streaming down his face, ran up to his sister and wrapped his arms around her. Everyone huddled in to hug her. Piper and Leo stood to one side. "Who's she?" Leo asked whilst crafting a model car from straws and bottle lids. "No clue," replied Piper. Everyone let go, except for Nico whose eyes were still streaming. My eyes welled up with tears also. "I'm so sorry Bianca," I muttered, loud enough for everyone to hear. Bianca looked at me and gave me a soft smile, "It's fine, it was my fault" she said while still petting her brother's hair. The two gods in the room were slightly peeved about getting ignored. Sure they brought her back. But 'they' did it. T and P stepped forward. "Yes, yes, a lovely moment," he commented, waving his hand "however there is something slightly more important we need to talk about,". We all looked at each other then them.
"You see, we brought you all together to replace the current gods," P started. We all gave a wary look, expecting lightning bolts or something to rip through the ceiling. P continued "As I was saying, you're here to replace the gods because they kinda suck," she looked over at T "We kinda suck,".
