Chapter 3 Pagos meets the Gods, I'm excited. I am still debating some things about this story let me know if there are any ships yall would like to see.
(Pagos POV)
Well, Lady Luck did not give me anything like I hoped, in fact, it appears my existence made very powerful people furious. After I fell on the ground I started to emit a dark silver hue, which I thought was unusual as Kevin, the dude who dug me out I found his name on his ID badge, was not glowing.
5 minutes after I broke free and started radiating silver, a weird gold flash appeared and a man with strange shoes with wings on them popped out of thin air. It felt eerie, I was able to look him in the eyes as he teleported in, this resulted in him having a startled look on his face.
The weird shoe man who appeared out of thin air walked over to me and looked towards my figure, he said something in a language I didn't understand and then pointed at me. I do not know what he was attempting to say. I shrugged at him and he looked at me like I just came out of the earth and had 3 heads, I am sure I only have one.
I then tried to speak, with a very raspy voice I said " I am Pagos. Who are you?" He looked very surprised by what I just said and responded with " oh you Speak Greek, should have guessed, I am Hermes God of messenger, and Thieves to name a few, and I need you to come with me kid." Suddenly he grabbed me. Hermes flashed that bright gold hue again and we disappeared.
(Throne room)
The next thing I know I am in what seems to be a throne room filled with giant people. The large man in the middle looked petrifying with his blue eyes staring into my soul as he looked at me I felt his power come off in waves. I look around the room and see 10 other massive figures and feel similar power from all of them. Everyone's eyes were on Hermes and me, well except for one, he was asleep. Hermes walked away towards an empty throne and whispers to me " good luck kid you'll need it".
"Who are you and why should I not destroy you? " the large one in the middle says. " a lady with an owl on her chair replies, " let us hear the child out before we kill him, lord Zeus."
So Zeus was the big scary name guy good to know. " Umm my name is Pagos sir, I do not know much after that, all I remember was being born then there was a blinding flash and the next thing I knew was I am covered in ore and unable to move. I am not sure how long I was like that though I am sure it has been a long time."
A lady covered in silver says, "no mortal should be able to survive, not even a demi-god, he must be some form of immortal." As she finishes her statement other entities teleports into the room. The next thing they do will haunt me in my dreams, they all speak as one, " all hail the son of Night and Mountian, God of Stars, Silence, Mountains, and Change. The gift of stars comes from your mother as well as silence, while mountains are from your father. Change is for you to figure out."
"Well shit. That can not be correct right?"
Zeus looking horrified starts reaching for what appears to be a giant lighting blot is stopped a man with a giant trident. " Brother why do you stop me from killings this threat to Olympus and send him to Tartarus," Zeus says to his brother. " Well brother if you had half a mind maybe consult the rest of the council, we are not barbarians."
" Umm not to sound rude but who are you people?" I say. I hear snickers from over by Hermes and the very bright person beside him. The lady who spoke up earlier with the owls by her throne says, " it appears he knows nothing, while we discuss show him the video we show the demigods." As she that Hermes escorts me to a room with a bunch of chairs and a blank screen and says, " just sit down Lil bro, and pay attention to the screen it will all be explained I will be right back for you."
(Sometime later)
Hermes found me again and takes me back to the throne room, after watching the video I think I can put names to faces for each person in the throne room. Poseidon was the one who stopped Zeus from killing me. For that, I must thank him later. It is kinda weird it was easy for me to remember everyone's names, I am assuming it is because of my powers of change but that is just a guess.
Zeus brought me out of my train of thought with a booming voice, " It has come to my attention that killing you might not be the smartest idea as it might create a new enemy in this time of crisis if you swear loyalty to the Gods we can arrange for you to learn about your godly duty with another god."
" Thank you, Lord Zeus, for your offer I swear that I do not have any want to harm any of the gods of Olympus, I am wondering what is this threat you are facing?"
Athena this time cuts in and says " we are up against Kronos, Titan of time, you might not know about his existence, but he is the father of some of the gods in this throne room and wants to kill us."
"Why would a father want to do that does he not love you?" I say.
" You have much to learn young God, now what God has spare time to teach him about his abilities, I am much too busy it really comes down to Artemis, Apollo, and Dionysus everyone else has duties to take care of."
Apollo was the first to speak up, " I do not want him, no offense, I send all day driving the sun". " I do not want a man near me and my hunt," Artemis says.
Everyone then looks at Dionysus as he is still asleep on his throne, Zeus slams his foot, making him wake up.
" Can I go home now?" he asks. " No, you will take this new god with you to camp half-blood and show him how to be a God, now leave."
With that, all of the other gods gone except for Dionysus, " come of kid grab on I know you do not know where we are going or how to flash, I will take you there once and that's it". With that, I grab on to the drunk god and disappear.
