The First in the Void
BIG THANK YOU TO MY CO-AUTHOR addalittlesmoke FOR EDITING THIS FOR ME. PLEASE GO FOLLOW AND READ addalittlesmoke's STORIES.
In this story, several characters use the Greek language. I will put Izzy's lines italic and Malcolm's lines non-italic. For everyone who can't read Greek, I will put the English in parentheses right after in bold. Thank you for reading.
Percy's POV
Why is my life so complicated?
I was just crushing Grover and the other Satyrs at volleyball when a girl in a cloak and a man were walking up to the borders arguing about something. Chiron came out of the big house like he was expecting them. Chiron bowed to the man and said hello to the girl. The girl didn't say hello back. They walk over to the dining pavilion while Chiron blew the conch horn to indicate a meeting. Once everyone arrived, he said, "The man right next to me is Lord Chaos and the young lady next to me is his daughter and due to ancient laws his only child that will ever live." I was shocked and so were the other campers, but after a while, they calmed down. "Her name is Izzy, she is the commander of the army of Chaos." Lord Chaos said plainly. At that very moment, he teleported. Izzy walked over to the arena and started to hack at the robotic dummies Leo made before he left to be with Calypso. She was hacking them like they weren't even moving. I have to say, she was amazing. Chiron walked over to me and said "The gods want all of camp to go to Olympus." I nodded and followed him to the camp van.

(Still Percy's POV)
We entered the throne room, Zeus being the drama queen, made lightning crack. We were all startled by this, except for Izzy, who looked quite comfortable. "So it has come to my attention that we have not properly rewarded Annabeth Chase and Percy Jackson for all the work you have done towards Olympus. Thus we are going to offer you two of you godship." Zeus said in a way that seemed like he didn't really care, but continue to talk, "Annabeth Chase, would you accept the position as a goddess." Annabeth not even hesitating said, "I do" Everyone in the room was shocked, right after, everyone gave me a sympatric look. I was devastated, how could Annabeth do this to me? After all these years, after falling into Tartarus for her. I was just shocked. The fates were giving me a look as if they plan all of this from the very beginning. "All hail, Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena, goddess of architecture and minor goddess of battle strategy, returner of the lightning bolt, traveler of the Sea of monsters, bearer of the sky, wanderer of the Labyrinth, the hero of Olympus twice over, sailor of the Mediterranean, returner of the Athenian Parthenos and survivor of Tartarus. Sacred animal the lioness, sacred plant the Orchid." the one on the left said in a very subtle voice. I wanted to cry. How could she just leave like it was no big deal? Zeus continued talking but was clearly still in shock, "Perseus Jackson, we ask once again will you accept the position as a god." I replied without even thinking, "I must decline your offer once again my lord." He looked annoyed but nodded. "You may all leave."

Chiron's POV
Now it is time to take Izzy to the arena to test her sword skills. When she arrived, she a hunting suit on, like Katniss's in the Hunger Games, and her hair was Katniss's braid. It looked like she was ready to fight. She already had a sword, so I said, "Firstly, can you show me the most advanced disarming maneuver." She nodded and showed me the most precise, most complicated, and most unexpected disarming maneuver I have ever seen. I was in shock but didn't show it. "Next, can you show me the most advance attack that you know," I said fearfully of the answer. She nodded and quickly was able to show me an attack that would surely take down a giant. Right then and there, I knew that she would be in master's sword fighting. Next, we moved on to go test her Latin and Greek.

Malcolm's POV
Today I became head counselor of the Athena cabin, which means I have to teach Greek and Latin to the other campers. Just then Chiron came into the classroom with that daughter of Chaos, Izzy, and said. "Hello Malcolm, I need you to test Izzy's Greek and Latin levels." I nodded and told Izzy. "Take a seat we'll begin." She sat in the front row and look like she had way more important things to do, but I continued. "So, how would describe your knowledge in the Greek language." She said "Pretty much fluent." I thought she was exaggerating, so I said, "Ok, so I am going to start a conversation with you and it will get increasingly harder." She nodded and I said.
"Καλημέρα, πώς πηγαίνει η εμπειρία σας στο στρατόπεδο?" (Good morning, how is your experience at camp going?)
Καλύτερα από το σπίτι γιατί εδώ κανείς δεν σας λέει να πηγαίνετε ένα τάγμα κάθε 5 λεπτά. (Better than at home because here no one is telling you to go lead a battalion every 5 minutes.)
Πώς είναι να είσαι διοικητής στρατού? (What is it like being the commander of an army?)
«Απασχολημένος, στον στρατό του Χαοστιανού, υπάρχουν διαφορετικές θέσεις, στρατιώτης, αξιωματικός, στρατηγός, καπετάνιος και διοικητής. Ο στρατιώτης πηγαίνει στη μάχη όταν ρωτάμε τη συγκεκριμένη ομάδα υπό τη διοίκηση ενός αξιωματικού. Ο αξιωματικός πηγαίνει στη μάχη όταν του ζητά ο στρατηγός του. Ο στρατηγός όταν του ζητά ο αρχηγός του τμήματος. Οι καπετάνιοι είναι σαν τους διοικητές ενός τμήματος στο στρατό, πηγαίνουν όταν το ζητώ, αυτό το τμήμα πηγαίνει. Τέλος, ο διοικητής, εγώ, πηγαίνω στη μάχη κάθε φορά. Γι 'αυτό είναι τόσο απασχολημένο." (Busy, in the Chaostian army there are different positions, soldier, officer, general, captain and commander. The soldier goes to battle when we ask that particular group under the command of an officer. The officer goes to battle when his general asks him to. The general when the captain of his section asks him to. The captains are like the commanders of a section in the army, they go when I ask that, that section goes. Finally the commander, me, goes to battle every time. That's why it is so busy.)
«Ουάου, ποια ήταν η τελευταία σας αποστολή; » (Wow, what was your latest mission?)
«Λοιπόν, χθες το βράδυ, αλλά δεν λειτούργησε. Έπρεπε να πάρουμε έναν κρύσταλλο από το Νεφέλωμα, μέρος του σκήπτρου της δημιουργίας του μπαμπά μου. Πρέπει να επιστρέψω σε περίπου ένα μήνα για να προσπαθήσω ξανά." ("Well, there was one last night, but it didn't work out. We had to get a crystal from the Nebula, it part of my dad's scepter of creation. I have to go back in about a month to try again.")
"Με ποια ενότητα έφερες και με ποιον πας;" ("Which section did you bring and who are you going with?")
«Έφερα το 21ο τμήμα και το 21ο τμήμα. Είναι το καλύτερο τμήμα του στρατού." ("I brought the 21st section and I going to bring the 21st section. They're the best section in the army.")
"Ποιος είναι ο αρχηγός του 21ου τμήματος;" ("Who is the captain of the 21st section?")
"Καπετάνιος Κώστας." ("Captain Costas.")

Chiron's POV
"Well, I don't she'll need to take Greek, Chiron," I said. He nodded, and I continued to talk "Next up, Latin. How do you feel about how well you know Latin?" she said, "Pretty much as good as my Greek." I responded saying, "I trust you. Chiron I don't think she will be taking classes from me." He nodded and told Izzy, "Let's go to the archery range to test your skills out."
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••At the archery range••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Chiron's POV
I'm bringing Izzy to the archery ranch to test her skills, the test from master's archery is to shoot 3 bull's eyes in a row. Once we arrived I was going to give her a bow, but then she pulled her bracelet, it turned into a bow. I think I was a gift from her father. Anyways, she pulled back the string, but there wasn't an arrow. I was about to tell her when an arrow appeared. She let go and the arrow hit the bull's eye. She quickly launched another one, and even with that speed was able to hit the bull's eye. This time she took a deep breath; trying to concentrate to not ruin her streak. But not surprisingly, she hit the bull's eye perfectly. Wow, she is amazing and no doubt would be able to be a captain for capture the flag. Now the question is, which team will choose her?
