Chapter 6:

A/N: Thank you HiMC for your domain ideas. Also Fastreader101, I'm going to change your idea a little but still kind of use it.

On with the story

Percy POV

Once we got back to the hunt all of them had bows pointed at us before I even had time to open my mouth. Artemis was standing to the side with a frown on her face. When she saw me she stepped forward. "Perseus, what happened?" Now I was confused what in the world did she mean? As if reading my thoughts (Which she probably was) she answered my unspoken question.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about. You tried to rape that young maiden, and if the hunters hadn't of stepped in you would have. What you didn't know was that I went to you father after the meeting and asked him if I could change my swear a little. He told me I could if he approved of it and so I told him that if you did anything bad to a girl than I didn't have to vote.

Whether you stayed in the hunt or not." Now I was really confused. What did she mean by trying to rape a maiden? I looked over at the hunters and saw them smirking. "Lady Artemis, no disrespect intended. But your demon spawns over there that have been making my life a living hell for the past nine months, if you don't believe me I'll give you and example of one of the nicer things they did to me. Ummm. Let's see? I know. Remember that time I was gone for a day and a half and when I got back I was beat up so much it took my godly healing a week to heal with nectar and Ambrosia?" Artemis nodded her head obviously not understanding how this was relevant as I had told her I had fallen down a hill onto rock spires which cut me up.

"Well I lied about what happened to protect he hunters from your wrath. They had sent animals after me that cornered me next to a pit. Not wanting to be trampled by wild stags and bears, again, I jumped in the pit. Once I got down there I realized that I could have used my powers so I tried to flash out, only to find out there was a power seal on the hole. When I looked around there was 5 wild boars down there and that there eyes were glowing red. I had experienced enough to know that the hunt had placed a spell on them to have major blood lust. For a day and a half I tried to avoid them and not hurt them, but finally I reached my breaking point when I almost lost my strength and it tried to kill me. So I killed all of them and climbed out on the stair well the boars were in front of guarding. Remember that was one of the things they did I consider nice. Now they are lying to you telling you that a tried to rape Zoë here who I just so happened to save from being raped by Hercules."

I was taking deep breathes trying to control my anger after my rant while Artemis looked shocked that her hunters would do such a thing before her face turned from shock to disbelief. Seeing this I decided to take drastic measures. "Lady Artemis I Swear on the River Styx everything I just told you was true." Her face went from disbelief to anger. "Hunt I think we should have a word in private." Before she flashed them out she turned to me.

"Percy, I'm sorry for the actions of the hunt, meet us back at camp in at least and hour." The last thing I saw before she left was the hunts paling faces at having to receive their mistress's wrath. When I turned around Zoë slapped me in the face before jumping into my arms with a hug. "While I do like to hug. WHAT THE CRAP! WHY DID YOU SLAP ME?"

Zoë just snuggled deeper into my chest and I realized she was crying. "You. You're so… so… STUPID. Why would you call the hunt demon spawn in front of Artemis? I. I thought you would have died." I hugged her closer while whispering soothing words into her ear. The whole time praying to the fates I would get a major domain and spend time with Zoë.

Line break—Percy's meeting to become a god… Or is it? No, it. It really is.

Percy POV

I was extremely nervous. Today I was getting my domains as a god. I really wanted my domains to be major or get me on the Olympian council. No, not because I'm power hungry, I really want Zoë to be my assistant. "Perseus, Son of Poseidon. Today we come to announce your domains and make you a god." I knew it would hurt Zeus' pride to make his brother's son a god, but it look like it was physically hurting him to make me a god.

"Nobody will know your domains until after you're a god. Do you still wish to proceed?" I could almost feel the hopefulness rolling off of him, hoping I would turn it down. I might just have to play around with that. "Lord Zeus, while I'm honored you would do this. I have to decline." Zeus sighed in defeat before his head shot up. "Are. Are you sure you don't want to?!" I looked thoughtful for a minute but managed to hide my smile.

"Absolutely… NOT!" Zeus smile turned into a frown and then into rage for me playing a joke on him. Soon everyone was laughing except Zeus, even the people voting against me were laughing. "Let's just get this over with." An embarrassed Zeus mumbled. After every one stopped laughing, which took a while, we started the ritual. They started chanting a ritual to turn me into a god, but I had zoned out wondering what my domains would be so I didn't get to hear the chant.

After it finished I didn't feel any different, but that changed. As soon as they were finished my dad held up a hand with 5 fingers on it. Every second he would count down one until he was done. When he finished I felt excruciating pain, but I didn't show it. I just scrunched up my face a little and took it like a man. When I did this I could see Zeus frown at my lack of screaming to the pain. It felt like an hour to me, but it was probably only a minute or two.

As soon as it was gone there was a flash in the room and then the fates were standing there. Everyone bowed down except for me. Everyone saw this and probably thought I was going to die, but I held my ground and glared at them. When they saw me glaring and not bowing they just sighed and shook their head before on of them made this gesture with their hand.

When she was finished she had a finger pointed at me and suddenly I was fighting to not bow. After a minute of fighting it I felt the pressure increase 2 fold. I looked up to see 2 of the fates pointing at me with shocked faces. After a while I was still standing and so the other one joined in. After a while they stopped and I almost passed out from exhaustion when they did.

"What, did you guys want me to bow? All you had to do was ask." They looked at me surprised before I bowed down. They quickly shook off their shock and started naming my domains. "Perseus. You shall be the god of earth, your domain will be anywhere on land and since you are the son of Poseidon your domain is also the ground at the bottom of the ocean. You shall be the god of night; your domain will be anywhere dark. You shall be the god of ice, your domain shall be anywhere were it is the freezing temp or below. Your sacred animal shall be a new creature you get to name, after the rest of this we will show you and the council. Your symbol of power will be and improvement to your stone powers which we will explain later. Last but not least… your status as a god. You CAN'T be a minor god because of your skill. You CAN'T be a major god because of your domain. So that means you must be an Olympian."

Before they could continue I decided to speak up. "It is already uneven and I don't wish to make it more so, so I would ask that Lady Hesty gets her throne back as there was no reason for her to lose it in the first place." Her and me had become good friends through the year because she found me when I was little and she was tending the flame in my fathers throne room when I walked in.

The fates nodded in agreement before a new throne grew up from the ground in between Artemis and Aphrodite. It had a homey feel to it, but before I could really look at it Hesty flashed into it and continued their speech. "Percy, we are truly sorry about the fate we gave you, so we have a few gifts to make it better. First we will go over you symbol of power and sacred animal. Your symbol of power will be you stone arms with a new improvement. Now turn you arms into stone and we will give you your 'gift'." I did as I was told and they looked at them before all of them made a hand gesture and my arms flashed.

When it cleared my arms looked different. They were still stone, but they had little flecks of stuff in them. "The light blue is ice infused in the sword, this will make you more powerful and give you better control over ice when you have stone arms, you can also turn your arms into ice, if you want. The black flecks are little pieces of darkness infused into your arms, this will give you better control over shadows when you have your stone hands out, and you turn your whole body into a shadow if there is one by. There is nothing for your earth domain because your arms are already stone. Next is your sacred animal. We did not make this, you did Percy. When you powers were merged it created this, because of your powerful domains. Most gods make something new, but never has anything living been made in this way."

They made another gesture and then there was this… thing in the middle of the throne room, right in front of me. It had a head that was made out of ice. It's head looked exactly like a dog except I couldn't remember which one and its eyes were a glowing red. Its main part of the body was made of shadows that seemed to be constantly moving, and it had little wings on it.

The legs were made out of stone. It's body frame was the same as that of a dog except it had wings. It was hopefully a baby that was going to grow because right now I could barely fit it in my palm. "There is another one that has hidden from us by you subconsciously because it gave you extra power. It will only reveal itself to you and it is a baby just like this one."

I was shocked and just gave them a slight bow of thanks. "Now onto the gifts from us. We give you a gift of loyalty. This has nothing to do with you, it just makes it so that you can tell if someone is loyal to you or not, it can also make anyone loyal to you, but the stronger they are the harder it is, and at first you may not even be able to do it to mortals, but you will progress in time. Our next gift is peace. We will put you to slumber until you are needed for the next prophecy. Our last gift is that the ancient laws do not bind you. Like Artemis you are only unbound if it is in you domain. So basically everything that doesn't fly is fair game for you to kill."

I heard the last part and was happy I could still kill monsters, but I was focusing on the part before that. "What do you mean you WILL put me into slumber? Don't I get a choice?" The fates shook their heads no before explaining. "We can not since anything about your future besides when you are needed. We don't want a wild card going around messing up our plans."

I knew they were going to put me to sleep so I tried to run. "Oh Percy, you can't run from fate." Before I had time to think of anything else they shot me with a bolt of energy and before I could dodge it the thing sped up and hit me, instantly knocking me out. "Goodnight Perseus, see you in a while." Before I completely lost consciousness an image of Zoë flashed through my head. "If Zoë dies because you kept me asleep I will hunt you down and make you fade." Then I lost consciousness.

A/N: I will wake him up next chapter. Please review and tell me improvements, also I'm changing pairings. I don't do good with Perzoe
