A/N: Greetings, greetings. I know it is getting a little late to post a chapter, and I guess my update day has kind of officially become Monday now.
Cannest thou hurry this up? I wish to speak to mine readers.
Ugh. This again. Fine, Ranger, if you insist.
Forsooth!
Anyways, there isn't much of the cats in here, but this was a scene I definitely wanted to include. The cats will probably make a return in next week's chapter, so stay tuned!
Now be gone, foul beast.
Ouch. You could just ask nicely.

Turtlepower12: I've hath always felteth that Wally and Percy would both want to proveth they were better than the other, so there would always beth a little tension. I am glad it turned out funny. And pizza truly is one of the best foods in the world. Asketh anyone. Well, not anyone, but thou knowest what I mean. :)

BisexualKitsune: Wow. Thou wast very excited about that, but ah...no promises. Mwah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Although it is quite likely (but you didn't heareth it from me!)... :)

TeamZoom (Guest): Thankee. I'm glad thou enjoyeth this story and I hopeth this chapter liveth up to thy standards! :)

silverbird6: YAY! I liketh making people laugh, and I've always felt that the CW really needeth to telleth the Flash actors to stop nodding so much! And with Arrow...identities never stay secret for long. Also, Kid Flash? I getteth that it was a name from the comics or whatever, but it's a really lame name. The lake scene was so much fun to writeth. In the original version, they actually jumped off with the cats, but I figured if they did that they wouldn't really haveth an excuse for letting Percy fall. Kara hath been really fun to writeth. I felteth like with all these male heroes, things were bound to go nuts-eth if there wasn't at least one girl around. Thanks for reviewing! :)

carpe noctem amica mea: Verily, it is totally fine. Now, if thou does not mind, I will pretendeth that lovely compliment thou wrotest out was for my story. Thanks. :)

Daughter of Trickery: Savitar doth not quite knoweth about the fluctuating powers, but I hath a feeling he might findedth out soon enough... Mwah ha ha ha ha ha ha! :)

: Thankee for thy kind review! It madeeth me smile. I like being happyeth... :)

Guest: Percy doth not knowest that. :)

Alex Focker: Verily, Percy could solveth many of the Flash's problems with a wave (punneth intended) of his hand. :)

IcyFox17: I have sworneth an oath on the River Styx not to reveal details of the next chapter, but I can promise you this: it will beth enjoyable. I find myself happyeth that you enjoyed Percy death, which soundeth far more cruel out of context. It is totally fine that thou forgot to posteth thy review, as I saweth it in time. There may have been a reference hidden in the deep, dark recesses of this story, but sadly I cannot verifyeth it for thou. I looketh forward to thy next review!

Thankee very kindly to all who now follweth, have favoriteth, and revieweth this story. Please do so again.

YE MUST READETH AND REVIEWETH!

I woke up in the morning to the sound of excited shouts coming from the direction of the Cortex, but I was just far enough away that I couldn't tell what they were shouting. Ares could've been turning their desk into a canon and I would've thought they were just trying to take care of a bee or something. For some reason, Cisco, Barry, Caitlin, and Joe were all very jumpy when it came to bees. When I asked about it, they just said it had something to do with a bandit.

So, I grabbed Riptide out from under my pillow and started trudging to the Cortex to make sure they weren't all dying or something.

When I got to the Cortex, I walked in and plopped into one of the swivel chairs, squinting at the bright lights. Caitlin was sitting in front of one computer, monitoring someone's vitals, I assumed, and Cisco was standing in front of the other computer, which was beeping, with a map of the city pulled up. HR stood on the other side of the desk, tablet in hand.

"Morning!" Kara chirped happily from her position by one of the larger monitors on the wall. She was dressed in normal clothes now and had a pair of glasses hanging from the neckline of her shirt, like she couldn't decide whether or not she should wear them. Since when did she wear glasses?

"Figures you'd be a morning person," I grumbled, running a hand over my face. She smiled. I figured she probably heard that a lot.

"Cheer up," she admonished. "There's doughnuts." She walked over to the desk and pushed the box towards me.

My eyes widened and I gave her a lopsided smile. "Now we're talking." I started eating, frowning after my first look into the box.

"What now?" Kara asked teasingly.

"There's no blue ones."

"I'm getting kinda dizzy." Wally's voice spoke from one of the little speakers in front of me and I jumped, nearly scattering doughnuts everywhere.

"You're supposed to get dizzy, Wallace!" HR yelled back as Cisco and Caitlin exchanges glances like, Here we go again. "You're supposed to get exhausted on this route. It's supposed to simulate the stress that you're gonna feel when you finally confront Savitar, so my suggestion to you is, suck it up, buttercup!" Then he finished in a quieter tone, "Milking epic greatness." I smiled fondly at HR and he looked back at me with a confused expression. "What?"

"Nothing," I dismissed. "You just remind me of Clarisse when she trains the new campers in sword fighting. Oh, those poor kids." I kept smiling, even though everyone started to do that thing where they look at you out of the corner of their eyes like, You crazy, so they think you can't tell, but you really can.

Something else beeped and Caitlin interjected, "Barry and Jesse are at the final mark."

"Barry and who?" Kara and I demanded at the same time.

"Jesse," Cisco replied impatiently. Before we could ask who, exactly, that was again, Cisco turned back to his computer.

"Get ready," Barry said through the comns.

"Wally's at the home stretch," Cisco called.

I continued eating my maple bar calmly as the sound of crackling lightning filled the comns. Something else beeped, showing that either they really liked that particular beep or they just couldn't find another one to use, and then Barry started talking again.

"Guys?"

"Point two one seconds," HR replied.

I frowned. "How did you even have time to start and stop the stopwatch?"

"Who knows," a voice growled from behind us. I jumped again, nearly tossing doughnuts into the air for the second time. Oliver had arrived, in his own creepy, slightly ninja-like way.

"Point two one," Barry was repeating on the comns. "Just fast enough to save Iris from Savitar. You did it!" Everyone started celebrating on both ends of the comns, except for me, Oliver, and Kara, who had no idea what was going on.

The three of us kind of watched each other for a while, glancing out of the corners of our eyes. We didn't exactly know each other well, but apparently we were all pretty good at reading expressions because we were still able to have our own silent conversation.

Any idea what they're celebrating about? Kara asked with a raised eyebrow.

I shrugged. Something to do with some kinda speed god that's gonna kill Iris.

Speed god? Oliver frowned. Is this something you brought over here?

No. Not everything is my fault, you know. Granted, a lot of it is at times, but not all of it.

Everyone was still celebrating when three streaks of lightning sped into the Cortex, making me almost scatter my doughnuts again. I had barely enough time to wonder why there were three before the lightning solidified into actual people. Two were figures I was familiar enough with - Barry and Banana Boy, who had taken off their masks - but the third was a person I had never met before. Also, it was a woman. She too wore her own suit and mask, although she had also taken off her mask.

"I swear to the gods," I growled, "if you people make me toss my doughnuts one more time I will gut you like a fish."

The woman I had never met before gave me a strange look; the kind that said, What the Hades just happened?

Behind me, Oliver cleared his throat. "Who is this?"

"Oh, this is Jesse," Wally introduced. "My girlfriend."

"Nice to meet you," Kara smiled. "My name's Kara."

Oliver gave her a cordial nod and said, "Oliver Queen," which wasn't much of an introduction. Jesse smiled and nodded back, respectively, before turning to me expectantly.

I watched her suspiciously, wondering if she was going to use the speed powers she apparently had for the evil task of stealing my doughnuts. I would've kept quiet, too, but then I noticed Barry was staring at me pointedly. "Oh." I cleared my throat and wiped the ring of sugary glaze around my mouth off. "I'm Percy," I introduced. "Percy Jackson."

She waved a little before saying, "Percy Jackson? That's funny. On my earth, that was the name of my favorite book series when I was a kid. It was this fictional story about a son of Zeus, the Greek king of the gods and-"

"Wait a second," I interjected. "Do you mean to tell me that my doppelganger on your earth is a son of Zeus?! The guy can't stand me! That's just weird."

Jesse looked confused. "No, I said that's what the fictional character was-"

"Yeah, we probably should've told you," Barry interrupted, "but Percy here actually is a demigod."

"Son of Poseidon," I chimed in, "Lord of the Seas; Earthshaker; Bringer of Storms; Champion Seaweed Cupcake Baker, The Great Olympus Baking Show 1829-"

"I think she gets the idea, Percy," Oliver called.

"But I wasn't finished yet. Author of How to Be a God of the Sea: My Autobiography, Winner of the Percabeth Support Competition-"

"Percy," Kara cut me off. "As fascinating as all of that is, we get it. You can stop now."

"What on earth is 'Percabeth'?" Cisco asked.

"Don't ask me, man. All I know is every time Annabeth and I kiss anywhere near an Aphrodite camper they yell that really loud."

"What exactly were you guys doing?" Oliver wondered.

Barry explained that they had been doing a training exercise to prepare for the night Savitar would kill Iris in the future. I noticed Wally looked a little jumpy at the mention of that name. Then Barry needed to explain how he knew what would happen in the future, and then what the Philosopher's Stone was ("I still think it's the freaking Sorcerer's Stone," Cisco had muttered), and then why they threw it in the Speed Force, and then what the Speed Force was… Basically, there was a lot of explaining going on.

At the end, I raised and eyebrow. "That's how you guys train?" Everyone (on Team Flash at least) looked at me like I was nuts. "No wonder you needed my help with Zoom. I mean, for the gods sakes, Barry, you're a CSI. It's not like they train you in hand-to-hand combat, is it? You're really just a bunch of civilians who run real fast. I mean, has anyone even taught you how to punch correctly?" I turned to Kara and Oliver. "Please tell me you two have at least had some training." They both nodded the affirmative. "Okay then," I smiled. "Let's go do some real training."

"What about the cats?" Caitlin protested.

Jesse frowned. "Cats?"

I waved my hand airily. "We can worry about them later. Now come on."

Barry shrugged. "I guess there's plenty of room on the floor of the Pipeline."

Everyone in the Cortex headed out of...well, the Cortex. On his way out, Wally reached for one of the few doughnuts left in the box and found his hand blocked by Riptide. He looked up, surprised. "Those are mine," I warned. He backed off and headed out the door and, after stuffing one final doughnut in my mouth, I followed.
