LEAP OF FAITH
PERCY POV
I watched as Athena walks into the cafe. I opened a telepathic link with my dad and said
"What is Athena doing here it was supposed to be Ares"
"This is a major change by the fates I will have to talk to them but for now just play along."
I sighed and ended the telepathic link.
"So why has the most arrogant Olympian decided to meet with me"
Both Annaneth and Athena glared at me and then Athena said
"Watch your mouth boy if it wasn't for your father I would have killed you already for disrespecting me by reversing the curse on that monster."
"Oh please you and I both know that Medusa didn't deserve what you did to her. Just because you weren't powerful enough to take revenge on Poseidon you cursed her."
"As much as I would love to I can't smite you I have to argue with you. I came here to give you this bag to help you for your quest and help you with transportation"
"I am not traveling in that the truck the other two will but I won't."
She just glared at me trying to intimidate me but once you have seen Artemis's glare her glare was not even close to scary.
After that she left the restaurant. I looked over at the the two idiots and saw that they had both fainted probably because Athena didn't want them to heat our conversation. I suddenly realised that Athena had not given us any quest so it was easier.
I wrote a not e for the two when they woke up to sit in the truck and meet me at the Lotus casino. Then I took a bus and went to Vegas.
I entered the Casino and the ballyhoo came to give me a card but I showed him the card that Chaos had given me. He recognised the helix sign on it and immediately kneeled in front of me.
I went to the top floor to the suite and knocked .
The door opened and I was enveloped in a hug by Nico.
I said
"What's up guys long time no see"
Nico said
"So what's the plan?"
"Before that Bianca are you joining the hunters again?"
Bianca replied
"No this time I am going to stick with my brother."
"Well you have two options you could either come with me to camp as my allies. Or you could go train with your father and come with me during Westover.
They both looked at each other and then Nico said
"I think we will go with option two."
"I trust you both know your way out of here"
They both nodded and I walked out the suite to go down to continue the quest.
I reached down to see a fight has started. Apparently Mark had tried to pickpocket from one of the security guatds.
After apologizing to the staff and smacking some sense into Mark we left the Casino.
We then took a cab and drove to Santa Monica. Once we reached there Mark entered the water and then the same shark which had appeared to me came to Mark. Unlike me Mark squeaked and jumped in fright and tried to hit it.
I laughed and Mark's stupidity when Mark finally returned he had the pearl.
Annnabeth asked
"Does anyone know how to get to the underworld maybe we could ask one of the gods."
I said
"Its through DOA studios"
Mark had to open his mouth
"Hades might have shut the entrance because he is afraid of me."
"If you really think Hades would actually be afraid of you then you are a bigger fool than I thought."
I didn't want to fight Procrustes in this timeline so I took a different route.
When we reached DOA Charon saw me and said
"Percy what's up"
"Hey Charon we just need a ride to the underworld.
"Anything for you"
I then have him the credit card and told him
"For how many ever souls are waiting."
He looked at the card with glee and then took how many ever drachmas he needed.
Once we entered the elevator Annabeth looked at me and asked
"Isn't he supposed to be more of the grim reaper type?'
I laughed and said
"Well the only reason he used to be so grumpy was because he didn't get a raise from Hades. But once I spoke to uncle Hades about a raise he agreed and ever since then Charon is a lot more cheerful."
When we reached the underworld I said goodbye to Charon and we walked in .
We then came across Cerebus. But we had grown find of each other. While I was training I occasionally used to take him for walks.
I went and started petting home and said
"I will come back to play with you later."
We then easily passed Cerebus.
I then knocked out both Annabeth and Mark and then placed a spell on them which father had taught me so that they would wake up when I wanted it and would not remember anything.
Since we had not stayed at the Lotus casino we had five extra day to complete our quest.
I then walked toward the mouth of Tartarus. Sterling my nerve I did the most stupid thing I could think of.
I jumped in.
