Here's another Ch. Tell me how you would think characters would react in whatever situation i put them in. If its too OOC or am I hitting their personalities just right!

I know you guys want a Percy Pov soon, but cant do it in this ch. I'm still trying to develop the characters rn. Next ch will be percy pov though. You'll finally get to see what happened to him 13 years ago! Please review and give me your opinions on how i'm doing. I know its cliche but reviews really give me fuel to write and improve my writing. (Btw as im writing this I posted the ch about a day ago and im at 6.1k words rn. For you guys can get a general idea of my writing speed.) another AN at bottom

Annabeth's POV

In her Immortal palace.

Nico, Thalia, Hazel and I were enjoying tea talking about whatever popped into our heads.

"I just don't see a reason to invite more Hunters in the Artemis ran Hunt, with Reyna and Piper joining, we're at a nice clean 10. Most of our current group has been together before the Mist even fell, with the most recent one being Nancy a year ago. Not including Reyna and Piper of course." Thalia said to anyone who was paying attention to her

"Yeah, I guess I can see your point. It'd be like someone joining our little get togethers we've been doing in my Palace." I said to her

"Yeah! exactly!" Thalia exclaimed

"What do you guys think about this upcoming Council meeting? I heard something about the Gods doing something about the United States offer to build a Embassy in New Olympus City. I don't know if its a good idea or not." Nico said

"Yeah I kinda agree, I'm afraid if they're allowed to build one there, they might ask to build on in the Underworld. Last thing we need is Government Politics in the UnderWorld. I cant even imagine what type of headaches we'll get if that ever happens." Hazel said as she shuddered in fear of just the thought of it.

"So anyways, hows Reyna and Piper adapting to a Huntress life? Like its a totally different way of living right? compared to what they're used to anyways." I asked Thalia.

"HAHAHA, yeah they're still kinda shell shocked when we told them, we actually bathe in lakes instead of showers. Honestly what did they expect? That we brought a portable shower with us all them time?" Thalia laughed

"Hahahaha, Yeah I remember when we had to explain to Zoe during our quest on how to work a shower knob during our quest back then. She nearly shot an arrow at the shower head when it burned her because she put it all the way to the left. Claimed it was a "Hydra" in disguise" Annabeth reminisced.

"Hahaha I think I remember that! Zoe was more grumpier than usual that day grumbling about 'Dang-fangled' showers. She even shot an arrow near Percy when he laughed about it when I told him." Thalia said regretting bringing up the mention of Percy.

And on que all three started looking at me. Like i'm sort of a helpless animal caught in a hunters trap

Albeit I did flinch a little when I heard his name, They don't need to know that.

"Guys please its alright. Its been almost 10 years now. it still hurts a bit when I think of him, But we have to move forward in our lives. Im even going out with Paeon, The God's Doctor now for like a year already. What about you guys? I know Its been years since we last talked about it, but how are you guys holding up?" I said in a concerned tone.

After a couple of awkward seconds Thalia went first.

"Honestly? I still think about it alot. Not everynight like I used to but still a lot. I think what if I didn't join The Hunters, Would that have saved him and made me the center of the Prophecies from that day on? Or i'll think if I could have done something that day, Like If I was a tiny bit faster could I have helped him, Or if had given him my spear and shield could he have somehow pulled a miracle outta his ass and killed her with them." Thalia confessed

I opened my eyes in shock, I never knew that she was dealing with those type of thoughts before!

"Thalia don't do that to yourself! That's a horrible way of thinking that always leads to a terrible train of thought! What happened, Happened not because of you, But because the Fates decided that was the way it was going to happen. Way before we were even born! and even then, don't you remember how bad Percy was with anything not Anaklusmos? I remember When he tried to use a dagger for the first time he accidentally threw it mid swing and hit Junipers tree while she was with Grover, Grover didn't talk to Percy for a whole week that month." I said to console Thalia.

"So its those damn Fates I gotta be mad huh?" Thalia said to Annabeth jokingly

"Hey there now, Lets keep cursing the Fates out our mouths Thal's, We don't wanna incur their wrath do we know?" Nico quickly said

"Yeah, Our dad doesn't even say anything like that. He even has to answer to them sometimes." Hazel quickly added while her eyes darted around to see if the Fates were near them somehow.

"Yeah yeah yeah, whatever what about you two? How you guys holding up? You guys get to talk to him or something right? with Queen and King of ghosts and all." Thalia asked the twins

Hazel and Nico looked to each other as if having a mental conversation.

"Ehh, yeah we're holding up pretty well. as children of the Underworld, one of the perks is we go though the Seven Stages of Grief a bit more faster. It was tough at first but we got though it." Nico quickly said

"Yeah, and we're not really allowed to talk to those who have passed on, especially if we were close to them in the Living world. Makes the ghost/soul impure, When you die you leave any sort of earthly attachments in your body and your Soul leaves to the Underworld ready to be judged as a Clean soul." Hazel added just as fast as Nico

Thalia and I quickly exchanged glances, See if she noticed it as well.

"Nico? Are you hiding something?" Thalia stared at Nico

Nico sunk in his chair and doubled down "Hiding something what do you mean? Like in my pocket no? Oh wait you must have heard of my new Mythomagic card right? Yeah look I got one right he-"

"NICO!, You always sucked at lying. you always change the subject to MythoMagic whenever you lie, now spill the beans." I said

Hazel and Nico stared at each other with hazel giving him a nod.

"Its okay Nico, you can tell can trust them to keep this a secret. Right?" Hazel said pleadingly.

"Yeah! You know you can always trust us right Thals?" I asked Thalia

"Yeah, Kinda insulted you even had to ask"

Nico closed his eye and took a deep breath. Well we didn't lie when we said we couldn't talk to him in the Underworld, But around the time the Mist fell, The security was lax down there, Normally we couldn't even get near Elysium, but that day there wasn't a single guard down there guarding Elysium. So I quickly went to Hazel and told her. Asked if she wanted to come with me and see Percy real quick. Just see though! We really cant talk to souls once they're down there or it really will taint them and they'll never be able to go though Rebirth if they choose to do so.

I nodded along with Thalia understanding the gravity of what they're telling us and how much trouble they can get into if someone else finds out what they did.

"Well the thing is, we couldn't find him." Hazel finished for Nico.

"WHAT?! What do you mean you couldn't find him? Did you miss him? or maybe he was hiding or asleep?" Thalia yelled across the table.

"No, we didn't miss him or anything. Don't you remember? King and Queen of souls here. If we need to find a Lost soul we can find it almost immediately using out powers. At first we thought maybe it was our dad shielding him from us, But our dad wouldn't even let us go near Elysium. So it wouldn't make sense for him to block Percy from us. Then we thought Maybe he wasn't in Elysium and maybe somewhere else." Hazel said

My eyes opened in shock

"What do you mean somewhere else? You don't mean he was sent to the Fields of Asphodel? That's impossible! He defeated Gaea in a act of Self Sacrifice!" Thalia told nico and Hazel

"We checked the fields As well guys, We couldn't find him there either. so we-" Nico said

My eyes filled with Horror "No! There's no way he ended up in The Fields of Punishment! Maybe he was in the Isle of the Blest? Did you check there?"

"Don't worry Annabeth, He wasn't in the Fields of Punishment either we checked there for at least an hour just to be sure he wasn't there, And he couldn't be in the Isle of the Blest because that was only his second time being reborn." Nico said

"Well maybe that's it then! Maybe he chose to be reborn! That's why his soul wasn't in the underworld! because his already alive again as someone else!" I said relieved for a second before Hazel splashed cold water over my theory

"Sorry Annabeth, but that's not it either, Nico here is in charge of dipping the souls into the waters of Letho. Im pretty sure he would remember dipping Percy's souls in into the river." Hazel told me

"Then where is he?" Thalia asked the One million dollar question.

"We don't know but we've been looking for him nonstop since we found out, And we cant ask the Gods for help or else they'll know we broke the Rules we're sworn to protect." Nico said in an attempt to ease our worries

"One of our working theories though, is maybe he got sent to a Different Pantheons Underworld. We're currently seeing if there's a way we can get into the Egyptians underworld" Hazel said with hope in her eyes.

"We should be getting news on that later today, we'll net you guys know when we know." said Nico

That does help a bit, but I'd still be more relieved if we knew where he was.

"Well guys, Its about time we head over towards the Council room, Thanks for hosting this for us Annabeth. Same time next month?" Thalia said to me as she got up

"Yep you know it. I always enjoy these little get togethers. I don't know about you guys, but it helps me feel normal, well as normal as I can be." I responded.

As soon as we all got up we all heard familiar sound of Zeus summoning a Meeting.

'Thunder rumbling'

"See you guys there." Nico said while flashing away with Hazel

Council Room

Annabeth Pov

"The President won't agree to those terms either father!" my Mom said to in a mildly angry tone.

"I don't care if they agree or not Athena! This isn't a negotiation! We're not going to let them build an Embassy on either Olympus or New Olympus City! We already gave them back the Empire State Building, out of goodwill! And now they think we're pushovers!" Zeus roared

Olympus and the United States have been in a Political battle of Tug of War. Both sides are seeing how far they can get with the other side. The United States gave up the territory where New Olympus city was built on, And Olympus gave up any Buildings they had control over in the United States outside of New Olympus City such as The Empire State Building and DOA recording studios.

"I understand that Zeus, But we really didn't have no choice on giving -them back the Empire State Building, We technically were squatting in it. And it'll be in our best interest to let them build and Embassy in New Olympus City." Mother said

"And why's that?" Zeus questioned Athena

"Well three things mostly, One, If they put an Embassy in New Olympus City, that will mean they recognize us as an Independent Country and will help ease tension within the mortals and our children! And Secondly, If they were to build an Embassy there it would show that we're open to welcome mortals, their tourism and Businesses! something we severely lack right now in the City! and most importantly, If we're able to shift the Flame of Western Civilization to New Olympus City, It'll strengthen our city and we'll no longer need to use the Empire State Building as the entrance to Olympus! We won't have to pay those mortals anymore of their damned rent!" my Mom said as she got more excited near the end with the thought of never having to deal with the concept of monthly bills ever again.

Yes, that's right. We Immortal deity beings are paying rent. While Nico, Thalia and I are accustomed to what rent is, To the gods its a foreign concept and a huge embarrassment to them. At first we could pay in USD, but somehow they got wind to the fact that we can summon stacks of cash with a flick of a wrist and started demanding Drachmas instead. Which is a double edged sword, It'll help make the Drachma become the World currency, but Drachmas are something we have limited supply of. Its kinda funny seeing Zeus pale when the Rent collector is here to collect rent, He even offered to make him Immortal. But like all Rent collectors he had no soul and instead increased the rent from 200 Drachmas to 500 Drachmas. It took the combined strength of all of us to stop him from smiting him that day. and as long as we're still in the United States and using the Empire State Building we also have to pay taxes along with the rent. The day we got audited is a day i'll never forget. Ares being the strong headed ass he is decided to talk to the Auditor in 'Private' in full Armor and with an army of 100 as a show of 'might' and 'strength'. When he returned with his army, the auditor somehow managed to repossess all of his armies gear and his own, He returned in nothing but a shirt and pants. Since then he's always been conveniently 'Too busy to deal with that devil in disguise'. We all laughed at him, but then we realized the IRS can come after us too.

"Hmm that does sound like a good plan Athena, Very well, Hermes send word to them that we'll allow them to build a SINGLE Embassy in New Olympus City." Zeus ordered Hermes

"Now that, that's over with, How do we go about with the increased demand of Celestial Bronze and Imperial gold weapons? The mortals are starting to figure out that their weapons aren't as effective as our weapons Lord Zeus" I asked him

While we can make Celestial Bronze and Imperial Gold, at the rate that they're using it, there's too much of a demand that we cant even hope to keep up with it.

"Hmmm. Athena do you have any ideas?" Zeus asked.

"Yes, actually I do. We tell them we can only supply them more magical metal if they agree to turn to only use it to create swords. They'll have to learn how to use swords again, but that's the only way i can think of were we're both satisfied. We can even ask our demigods to teach them basic swordplay, and that'll also increase Greek-American ties." My mom said as if she predicted he was gonna ask her.

"Very well, We shall go with Athena's plan. All in favor?" Zeus asked

All present Gods raised their hands.

"What's next on the agenda?" Zeus asked everyone.

Finally my turn so speak, before anyone interrupts me.

"Yes Lord Zeus, Ill need your approval for this finished plans on how the new Gladiator colosseum shall be constructed. I have three different designs for you to look over which I think you'll find very pleasing." I told Lord Zeus.

I walked towards him and summoned three different blueprints designs I made. After I get his approval i can finally start on the fun part. Building it.

After he picked one, I went back to my seat by my mom.

"And lastly I believe Hephaestus had something to say?" Zeus told everyone.

"Yes, ever since the Mist fell a year ago and the human started adapting to magic and supernatural stuff, they've been integrating their technology with ours so I thi-"

Can you cut to the chase Hephaestus! this doesn't really seem to be important to waste my time on." Zeus said getting tired of talking.

"Well say that again after you see this!" Hephaestus told to Zeus as he flicked his wrist and summoned something in the middle of the Council room.

"What is it?" Zeus said slightly more intrigued

Hephaestus walked up to it and said "They call this a Godly power source Locator or or a GPSL, it senses anything within a 30 mile radius for anything that contains any Divine energy. Its great device for mortals and Demigods alike. With this they'll never be in danger of ambushes ever again!" Hephaestus said excitedly

I think out of everything that's happened so far, Hephaestus, Aphrodite and Apollo probably adapted the fastest.

Apollo almost immediately became a model for his own magazine called 'The Godly Digest' who he co-runs with Aphrodite.

Hephaestus on the other hand started dabbling with more Modern inventions, he somehow managed to integrate the internet with magic. Now you can buy stuff online and it'll immediately be teleported right in front of you, of course you'll need to charge it via Drachmas, which he somehow managed to convert it to energy.

"I already have enough to supply all our children with them, just need your approval Zeus." Hephaestus told Zeus

"That's great Hephaestus, send them out to our children immediately!" Zeus said excited to increase their defense.

"With that I shall conviene this meeting!" Zeus then became a bolt of lightning and flew upwards as dramatic as he could.

As I stood up my mom came up to me.

"Annabeth, wait a moment."

"Yes mom?"

"I just wanted to ask if you wanted to hang out later on today. I've recently got my hands on some books from the remnants from the Great Library of Alexandria." mom said

"Oooohh, I would love to! But can I take a raincheck? I have plans i need to attend to." I said excited of the prospect of combing through those books with my mom and a nice cup of tea.

"Plans? Are these plans more important than going though Books from Alexandra?" she asked

I blushed a bit "Well, maybe not to you. But kinda for me.."

"Ahhh, I see. I wished you would have listened to my idea of becoming a Maiden and focusing on learning like I did." she said

"Well didn't you have that one thing with Poseidon for awhile? I retorted

"Wel-well that was different" She stammered because I got her in a verbal corner

"Different how" I said? Pushing her even more

"Annabeth, don't you need to be somewhere? We've been talking for 30 minutes now. I'm sure your date doesn't like waiting" she said

Damn, she always manages a way to win

"Oh didn't know we've been talking this long. I'll talk to you later mom. Then we can go through those books!" I said to her before flashing to my Palace.

I have this beautiful dress to wear, I got it from Aphrodite new store she made in New Olympus City, A nice silver dress with hints of light green on the hems.

After I freshened up I flashed to our meeting spot.

A nice restaurant in New Olympus City called Greeks Delights.

It took a minute to find him, Restaurant seems to be packed today.

I spotted him by a corner table talking to the waitress.

"Hey there P-Brain" I called out to him

He turned around and saw me and gave me his trademarked toothy grin that I just love.

"Took ya long enough, Silver. I'm just ordering for us right now, You still like Medium rare steak right?" he asked

"Of course I do, That's what I planned on ordering anyways." I said

Gods, I love this man. He always knows what i'm thinking.

"So how's your day so far?" he asks

"Pretty great actually! Zeus picked one of my favourite designs for the colosseum . And my mom managed to get some books from The Great Library of Alexandria!" i said excitedly

"Ohh, I heard about that. If you happen to see any medical books, you'll call me right? I'd like to compare on how modern medical knowledge has evolved from the past." he asked

"Of course! Well I don't even know what type of books mom brought. But if I think you'll be somewhat interested in them Ill give let you know.." I said as our food came

Near the end of our date we heard a 'Thunder Rumbling"

"Huh? That's weird" I exclaimed

"What is it?" he asked

"That's not just normal Thunder. That's Zeus, He only calls us out like this unless its an emergency." I said

"Well you better get going! Zeus doesn't like being kept waiting. Cya Silver." he says

"Gosh. Im so sorry I kinda hoped we could have kept talking for a bit longer." I said hurriedly as I got up

"Its alright, We can talk tomorrow for dinner. 7pm. My place?" He asked

"It's a Date." I said as I flashed towards the Council room

2 hours ago

Thalia Pov

After Council meeting

Tonto National Forest

"How can you still not get this?!" I angrily said

I've been the teacher for both Piper and Reyna ever since they joined. While they understand that we're hunters and like to live in the wild. They're still having trouble adjusting to the wild life. For example, tents. They cant even set a single tent up if their life depended on it, and honestly, Their life might depened on it soon if they don't set it up right this time.

"I just don't get it! Where do we hammer down the stake? Is there a hole or something?" Piper asked

"FOR THE LAST TIME YOU MAKE THE HOLE! YOU GET A HAMMER AND HAMMER IT IN THE GROUND" I yelled

"Ohhhhh, I get it! Wheres the hammers at Thalia?" Reyna said next to Piper

"Its in the tool tent...You guys do remember how the tool tent looks like right?" I asked with hope.

"Yeah, we're not dumb Thalia!" Piper said indignantly.

"Just tell us where its located and we'll get it ourselves!" Reyna said with Piper nodding.

"Don't tell me you guys forgot where the tool shed is...We went though this yesterday!" I said condescendly

Both looked at me sheepishly

"Ughhhh, follow me." I said

I walked towards the tools tent and met Nancy and Phoebe practicing archery.

Nancy was a mortal who joined the hunt a bit ago, She was bounced from fost house to foster house until we found her in an a lleyway being surrounded by three guys, Who i'm assuming didn't have the best of intentions towards her. Apparently she also awakened Clear Sight during the whole ordeal. She kinda freaked out when a group of as she yelled "Animal women" popped right behind them. She didn't really mind after Artemis tuned those men into mice.

After we explained to her who we are and what we are, and after she explained about swearing off men, Artemis asked if she wanted to join.

Nancy said she really only liked a boy once in her life, and really hasn't found anyone else so she agreed almost immediately.

"Good job Nancy! Its like your a whole different person now! You were the second to worst bo shot I've ever seen!" Phoebe complemented her

"Yeah thanks! I never knew I had a knackfor thi-" she said before she was interrupted by an explosion coming from the tools tent.

'BWOOOMSHH'

Our hair was blown back, by the explosion and we had to shield our eyes from any falling debris.

"What the hell?!" I shouted

Then we hear it loud footsteps getting closer.

'Fwomp. Fwomp. Fwomp.'

Then we saw an enormous shadow envelop us, It was 30 ft tall, The body of and alligator and head of a snake. It opened its eyes and shot another fireball this time towards us.

Then a loud voice reverberated throughout the air.

"Hunteresses! To arms! The Hunt is under attack by a monster!" a voice i recognized at Lady Artemis.

and like a fine tuned machine, we all got in position within 1 minute

"Thalia take the Twins, and Josephine and Estelle to the highgrounds and try to kill it from there! Ill take Reyna, Piper and Atalanta. you guys will cover me from 20 feet behind me while I fight it!" she commanded

As soon as she said the last word, We split into the designated teams like she said. My team and I went to a vantage, While Artemis team started fighting it.

"AIM FOR THE EYES" Artemis shouted from down below

"YOU HEARD HER GIRLS!" I parroted to my team.

I shot it a couple time on its skin to see if it'll have any effect. No dice, It was invulnerable.

From my point of view I saw Artemis bobbing and weaving through its feet trying to limit its mobility and her team shoot at its eyes, while the arrows were hitting its eyes the monster it seemed to be only mildly annoyed by the attacks focused on its eyes.

Then I saw it. While it was charging another Fireball, and arrow seemed to have strayed from its eyes and towards its mouth, its eyes panicked and quickly dodged it.

"LADY ARTEMIS, SHOOT AT ITS MOUTH WHEN IT CHARES AN ATTACK!" I yelled with all the power my lungs had.

Artemis quickly ran a distance away from it to bait and other fireball attack, and It worked.

As soon as it opened its mouth Artemis charged a arrow imbued with Moon Light and shot it towards its mouth.

As soon as her arrow reached its mouth, like a cartoon it swallowed the arrow and gulped. Then smoke started coming out from its nose and ears.

It then started hissing in pain.

'SHHHHH HISSSSSS SSSSSSSSS'

Then it started to convulse for 5 seconds before its chest blew open.

We all gave a couple of victory woops and then we all grouped up with Artemis who was inspecting the monster we just killed.

"Not bad Reyna, Piper and Nancy! It was the first time since the camp was attacked ever since you guys joined! and you guys survived!" I complemented.

"I was so nervous! I never even saw a monster this big before!" said Piper

"Yeah! the biggest I saw was a Hellhound that wandered a bit too close to Camp Jupiter!" said Reyna just as excited as Piper.

"Well, its the first time I killed any monster PERIOD." Said Nancy shaking a little from what just happened.

"Ahaha, dont worry youll get used to it. And for your guys first kill to be a... What is this Lady Artemis?" I asked

"after a couple of seconds she finally answered.

"I don't know Thalia."

"What do you mean? Like you forgot its name? or its an ancient monster that barely ever pops its head from Tartarus?" I asked

"No, As the Goddess of Hunting I know all monsters by heart, and this isn't a monster that I know..." Artemis said a bit more quiet as she got near the end.

"What does this mean?" both Estelle and Phoebe asked

"It means Im going to Olympus, and you girls are going to New Olympus City." She said

Near the same time as the Attack on The Hunt.

The Underworld.

Nico's Pov

"Are you ready? I mean once well tell him, there's no doubt we'll be in big trouble after we tell dad." I asked my sister.

"Well, we really have to. If we're right about this, you and I both know what this could mean." she told me

"I still don't know if its a good thing or not. I mean it could mean everything or absolutely nothing. and if its something at least we would have broken the rules for something. But if its nothing and dad finds out we broke the rules..." I said a bit scared about the ladder

"I know i know I know, But if we're right about this, We gotta do this.. for him..." she told me

Then all the shadows in the coalesced and formed my dads 20ft figure

"Children, i'm glad to see you, but I was in the middle of berating another rich businessman trying to buy eternal life with money, They cant seem to understand that I can summon all precious rocks from under their feet and become as wealthy as all the nations combined. Its annoying, but I do like the face the make when I summon Cerberus to scare them away." dad said with a smile.

"Yeah, dad its great to see you, We just wanted to say hi and stuff.."Nico said visibly getting nervous

"Yeah, ya know its been a while since we just you know talked and stuff..." Hazel continued.

"And stuff? You said and stuff twice and haven't got to it. What is it?" dad said

"Well, its kinda like umm. Oh I know. You know how Zeus made the whole No children from the Big three all those years back?" I said

"Yeah, seems funny now that I think about it. After the Prophecies were over, kinda seemed pointless to keep on following it so we just abolished it." dad said

"Well, you know how some gods broke it? and then well you know had children. Well in a way the rules were broken and a good outcome came out of it right?" Hazel said

"Are you trying to tell me you got someone pregnant Nico? I could care less about this, WAIT, Hazel did you GET pregnant? Whos the person! I hope it wasn't by some mortal was it?" dad said

Hazel started blushing at the mention of her being pregnant. We actually don't even know much about her personal life, And by the looks of it she might actually have a boyfriend.

"NONONO DAD STOP PLEASE. We're just you know getting you prepared for what we're about to tell you." Hazel said red as a tomato

"It can't be that bad, cmon children tell me." dad said reassuringly

"Wellll..you know how when the Mist vanished you called everyone up to the mortal world to help sort out all that craziness that day?" Hazel said

"And how the underworld was pretty much empty and unguarded that day? for like the first time ever?" I said

"Yesss... Im not liking where this is going..." dad said with a hint of anger

"Well, remember Percy?" I said before dad cut me off

"OF COURSE I REMEMBER HIM. DONT TELL ME YOU GUYS TALKED WITH HIM YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO A SOUL WHEN TOUCHED WITH ANYTHING FROM THE MORTAL WORLD!" dad yelled

"NONONON, WE didn't talk to him we swear!" Hazel quickly said

"Oh oh okay, for a second I thought you guys did something REALLY REALLY stupid." dad said a bit more calmly

"Weellll..., I mean we did TRY to do something." Nico said

dad raised an eyebrow.

"Well, what did you do?" dad said getting impatient with us now.

I decided to just bite the bullet and take one for the team.

"Well, we just wanted to look for him, but that's it I swear! just wanted to see how hes doing and stuff ya know? I mean he was a pretty big part of our lives when we were kids." I said

Hades had anger on his face, but not as much as he would have of they tainted a Soul.

"Well, and then what happened?"

"Well I said we TRIED to look for him. the thing is he wasnt in Elysium, the Isles of the Blest, Asphodel or -" i got cut of by my dad

"No that cant be possible! There's no way he went to the fields of torment! I mean We didn't have the best of relationship, But I do respect any act of self Sacrifice! Anyone who does any Self sacrifices are instantly sent to Elysium without the need for judgement!" dad exclaimed

"NO, he wasn't there either dad. That's the thing he wasn't ANYWHERE in the underworld. We thought maybe he went to a different type of Underworld like the Egyptians one or Indians." I said

"No that's not possible, A soul goes to what ever Pantheon he had more earthly ties too, and with him being a sone of an Olympian god, Its impossible for him to not be in our Underworld." dad said explaining to us.

"Yeah that's what we found out earlier today, We bribed Charaon to tell us about other Pantheons and he told us the same thing." Hazel said

"Well, if we apply Occam's razor then that could only mean.." he said as all out eyes met

"Percy might still be alive." I said

After a moment of silence he said

"Who have you told about this?" dad said

"Well, we only told Thalia and Annabeth. But we can trust them." Hazel said

"Yes, I guess they are trustworthy enough. Keep this to you-" dad stopped talking

hazel and I looked at eachother

"Dad? you okay?" I asked

and then he took a deep breath.

"Its moments like these that make me truly wonder if the Fates truly do know everything." dad said

"Someone is approaching the Doors of Death. from the Inside." dad said

Alrighty guys ch 2 done! took me 3 days to finish it after post ch 1. How do you guys think the story is coming along? Is it going to slow? Or do you guys want it any slower. Please feel free to review and ask questions in the review section. I have answered at least three already, so check and see if I answered one of your questions already. I'm going to hold off posting this ch until maybe a week or so, Im going to try to get ahead on chapters.

If you guys want me to post chapters faster help me reach 50 followers on my Insta, What's my insta you ask? Instagram/Piiandr

If I reach 50 followers Ill go ahead and post a chapter I have already finished! I post one for each milestone I achieved.

One last thing! How are the characters personality? I'm trying to be faithful to the books, I think there's only two im going to have to take some creative liberty with. Nancy and Hades. Nancy only showed up once in the book, and I don't think hades talked too much. So in this fanfic Hades will be a good father, one who really cares for his children's well being.

Im still in need of a proof reader/editor/beta. Pm me please if interested.

P.S Im writing this while im writing ch 3 (yes ch 3 not 2) and I was struck with a thought if you guys wanted me to bring back Zoe. Wont matter to me. I can use Zoe coming back as a plot point, or use her death to further develop Artemis and Percy's relation ship. Please tell me in reviews.
