Chapter 4-"The older they are, the weirder they get"

AN: To questions about the Percy pairing, you would learn in some time, doe to this chapter being very important for it.

Still, the pairing itself won't come until later in the story. And also I'm still not 100% on it. I have an idea, but I'm not sure it is the best one possible.

Now, there might have been a little too much fluff and OOC in the last and this chapter, but it is my story and unless it is for a good reason, I do not care about negativity. I think that while the Protogenoi are nigh omnipotent, they still act like human beings. In my opinion Rick Riordan did a very poor job on their characters. They can't just be fooled like Nyx was in House of Hades.

Another thing. Actually in most myths, while they are very random and different, the Hesperides are daughters of Nyx. I will definitely use that in this story, so do not get confused.

"Come, Perseus Jackson. We have much to discuss." Said Nyx, Primordial Goddess of the Night.

"What do you need from me, Lady Nyx?" Asked Percy, a little bit nervous out, that all the Protogenoi he had met had at least some interest in him. She seemed to ponder for a second, as if not really sure how to begin, before she got her calm and spoke.

"I have an offer for you. Now, Perseus, you have met many of my children." At that proclamation, Percy paled. Was the Primordial in front of him going to kill him for harming her spawns? It really was not his fault they were evil.

"Relax, I will not harm you. I am not happy, but you were attacked and I can forgive you for it. I am interested in something else right now."

Percy sighed at the knowledge of having yet another Primordial as an acquaintance. At least she wasn't going to kill him. But then, Nyx got a somewhat embarrassed look which in his opinion made her look kind of funny.

Nyx scowled when she heard his thoughts, but she still continued.

"While I love my children dearly, most of them are either monsters or gods. I have never really had an at least somewhat normal child. And you seem like an overall good man. So I want to ask, would you be willing for us to have a child?"

Percy was in absolute shock. It was a surprise he had not lost consciousness yet. The Primordial Goddess of Night, the third oldest Deity in the Universe, wanted to bear his child? He couldn't speak.

"Oh…uh…a?"

"But know that, outside of the, ah…procreation," Nyx said with a tiny blush "there will be no romantic relation between us. I have a husband after all." Percy again got scared.

"Ah, Lady Nyx, wouldn't Erebus be unhappy about this…procreation act?" Percy was red at his choice of words. Before the Primordial shook her head.

"He already knows about this and has given you his blessing." Percy then bit his lip before continuing.

"I really am sorry, but I'm just 16. And I already have a mission for the foreseeable future. I won't be a good father. Plus, you are one of the most powerful Deities, can you really not have a child alone? "The demiprimordial said, while bowing his head in shame. Before he felt it lifted up by some shadows, radiating a pleasant warm feeling, unexpected of them. Nyx then spoke with a surprisingly soft voice she had not used before.

"I know of your life Perseus, and if I'm sure of anything, you will do whatever for your friends, let alone for your future children. I also know this feels wrong for you, since you wanted to have a child with the one you marry. But you will be lonely in the world for the next years, before you begin your move on Olympus. Would it really be wrong to have someone else to love in that time?"

Percy decided to ignore the fact, that there were people watching him, the Gods were weird. The older they are, the weirder the get.

"Also, I can have a child alone, but it would just be a carbon copy of me and would not have a father and I do not wish for that."

He was torn right now. Did he want to bring a child, his child, to a war that he was not even sure he would win? His son or daughter will also be very powerful, having the blood of two Primordials and one of the Big Three. He would not be surprised to see such a powerful child outclassing gods left and right.

Yet, he had always wanted to leave a legacy for the world, and what better way? And he really was lonely. His only friends right now were Aera and somewhat Zoe. But how much company were really a daughter of Hell and an abusive dead ex-huntress of Artemis? He also had Ouranos and Tartarus, but one was his dad and Tartarus was just that cool uncle, who liked seeing him suffer.

Percy was sure he was throwing himself into another weird and hard adventure, but he at least knew, that he would not regret his answer.

"I accept."

Line Break-Tartarus' Palace

Percy was looking for Aera, Tartarus and his dad, to inform them of his meeting with Nyx. The Goddess had suggested, that they 'spent some time before the naughty' with a wink, which had made him blush furiously and stutter a few incoherent words. Seeing his face she had just laughed and teleported him back to Tartarus' place.

As the demiprimordial was pacing through the red and black walls, he could not help but think of what his future would be. He was actually going to be a father soon. While he was quite scared of the whole concept, just the thought made him giddy with excitement.

Percy was zoning in while thinking and did not sense coming in the throne room before hearing two very familiar Primordials snickering. Of course they knew.

Aera was looking with a raised eyebrow at two of the Protogenoi snickering at Percy, who was nervously shuffling his feet and refusing to meet their eyes. Before she waited enough and cleared her throat.

"What is going on here?" Percy then started vigorously shaking his head, while blushing. But Tartarus just smirked.

"Well Nyx just asked my nephew if she could carry his child." Aera gasped and looked at Percy, who looked about to kill the primordial, but settled for just staying there embarrassed.

"Do not say it like that!" He yelled but the Primordials started laughing even harder at his face. Before he was about to leave, Ouranos shouted something making him scream in frustration.

"You should tell Zoe you'll be her new stepdaddy." At that all three were on the floor laughing, before Percy just ran outside, screaming in frustration. Wondering what to do next, he felt himself being teleported.

Percy found himself in a pitch black room with just a few flames, barely lighting the place up. Before him stood yet again the Primordial of the Night.

This time doe, she was wearing just an almost see-through silver nightgown, showing even more of her cleavage, while smirking at the demiprimordial seductively.

Percy just could not speak, so he settled for a small squeak.

"Now?" He squeaked with his eyes almost popping at the sight before him. He just now realized he was in a bedroom.

Nyx got up at leaned to his ear, while whispering "Now.", making him shiver in pleasure. Then she cupped his face and slammed her lips on his.

Percy immediately melt down at her somewhat cold lips, but that just added to the tingling sensation for him. Nyx then ran her fingers through the demiprimordial's hair. At that time Percy, albeit grudgingly, pulled from the kiss.

"I thought just …" Before he could continue, the goddess put a finger on his lips.

"Doesn't mean we can't enjoy it, plus you don't look half bad yourself." At the thought of spending more time with the stunning goddess, Percy's eyes were dinner plates.

He didn't really think anymore as lust overwhelmed him and he smashed his lips on Nyx's with incredible force, almost making her stumble, before she caught herself and started kissing him back with just as much force. Somehow Percy's hands were at her butt, giving it a not-so-subtle squeeze.

Nyx noticed this and internally smirked, as pure as this man was, nobody could resist her. She then started groping his cock, making him grunt in pleasure and he lost the grip on her ass. She leaned in to his ear and slowly whispered.

"Ow, don't be shy, Percy. I have only just begun."

Percy's then lust completely took control of him and both had a night of bodies clashing and extreme passion.

With Aera

After seeing her only friend go to do some 'things' to another ancient Primordial, Aera was thinking. She really was trying to adjust to her new life. She had been told by Percy how weird it is for demigods in their first weeks, but as he had quoted 'the older they are, the weirder they get'. Basically being the daughter of the second Deity was more than enough confusing.

And said Deity was not making it easier for her. When she finally got used to her father sassing and teasing Percy, he wanted to tutor her in powers.

And she had not gotten over the fact, that her father was practically the embodiment of Hell. That thought did not make her feel good. She was getting used to it, but she wondered if she was ever going to make friends. For now Percy seemed to tolerate her, but what if she trained and became a warrior. Would he be scared or disgusted by her? Especially outsiders, they would be terrified by her the moment she uttered her father's name.

Then she also remembered Percy's tale. He had been through more and was still breathing and so much more. He had also taught her, that her father had one of the most terrible jobs in the world for millennia with no pay and it was not even his fault.

And now, thinking about her situation, she was royalty in a magnificent palace in her domain, she was a princess of Hell. The demiprimordial had no idea what to make up of that, so she just wanted to follow Percy's footsteps. He was a hero and she wanted to be recognized as such.

Right now Aera was going to train with her father, she just went in a big room, made from a strange black metal that was slightly reflecting the lights from hellfire lamps. It looked like the metal her spear had, but had a feeling as if it radiated power. She made a mental note to ask Jared or her father about it later.

Tartarus just greeted Aera with a wave and a grin, Gods, her father was a man-child. The demiprimordial was actually very nervous. She had already lost control of her powers twice before and definitely did not want to experience it again. And with that fear, she would definitely displease the Primordial. If anything, she wanted her only parent to be proud of her.

At seeing his daughter's nervous behavior, Tartarus dropped the sarcastic attitude and got a more serious look before starting the lesson.

"Alright, now we start. Aera, do you remember the feeling of the spear I gave you in your hand, the first moment you grabbed it?" She nodded. "Do you also remember how you opened a portal earlier, using the feeling of pull in your gut." A nod again. "Try to concentrate on the same feeling and drag it to your arm. Then feel the spear in your arm. Just remember, you have lots of power in you, so try not to get lost in it."

Aera was confused, but obliged and imagined the pull in her gut. But after just a second, said pull intensified highly and a searing pain coursed through her whole body as she exploded in power. Then the girl blacked out.

Later, demiprimordial felt her body being shaken and opened her eyes to see the worried expression of her father. At seeing, that his daughter is well, Tartarus let out a breath of relief.

"You lost control. Look around. If I had not been here to stop you, you would be dead." Aera looked around the previously black room in shock.

Right now, most parts of the room were burning in hellfire. The problem was, that the embers did not seem to extinguish, even when they were practically burning on stone.

"Hellfire will not extinguish unless I or someone blessed by me decides to. Also if you didn't know, the burns are unhealable without godly energy and will stay even after monsters reform. It is one of my deadliest creations." At that, Aera paled even more, before quietly whispering.

"What is the deadliest?" Tartarus, with a grim look answered.

"I have been the torturer of the worst of the damned for thousands of years. You do not want to know." Before both decided to lose the topic of torture.

Tartarus then had a thinking face. His daughter's power maybe was just too much for her to channel. He truly did not know how to help her. Before an interesting idea popped in his mind.

"Try again, but this time, when you pull some power, take all of it and direct it at yourself, encase it in an aura around you. Do you have an idea what I'm talking about?"

Aera just shrugged, she would try. So when she felt the power in her overwhelming her, she directed all of it around herself.

At that moment, she gasped. She felt powerful, like she could open hundreds of portals like that one before and not even get tired. The demiprimordial saw the dumfounded face of her father and remembered her task. Instinctively, she reached her hand forward and her spear thrusted from the ground. But this time there were changes.

On the magnificent spear, just after where she held it, were red words glowing, as if being burned on the black metal. There stood Judgment, written in something, that looked like Greek to her. She was so confused by the inscription, that she did not even wonder how she could read the language that she had never before learned.

Tartarus composed himself before answering her unasked question. "The spear reacts to your power, it is like a magnet to it. And that aura you had, might I add, feels as much as a minor god, without any training. You will make me so proud. OK, that's enough or now, go rest." And the Primordial dismissed her with a wave of his hand.

"How did I do that? And why did you think that would work?" Tartarus thought a bit before answering.

"You did what I did all this time ago." At seeing his daughter's confused look, he continued. "You absorbed your power, turning it against yourself, imprisoning it around your body. That was how the Pit was created."

As Aera was walking out of the door, she remembered something and twirled around her heels and asked. "What is this metal? It looks like the tip of my spear." At her question Tartarus got a somewhat smug look at his creation.

"Ah, this is what I like to call Tartarean Obsidian. It is practically Tartarean Steel, like the base of the spear, but it is blessed by me. It gains some properties, but you will learn of them some other day. Now I used it to contain your aura to the outside world, so you don't harm anybody or cause disturbances."

Satisfied by the explanation, Aera nodded and was about to go as another question plagued her.

"Why should I go rest, I'm not tired." At that, Tartarus got a slight smirk.

"Stop taking power, return it to your gut." The demiprimordial frowned, but obliged the request.

Then her eyes widened as she felt how really tired she was without any power helping her up. Her knees were burning in pain and shaking as she was walking towards her personal chambers, guided by Jared and his brother, who she was too tired to ask about.

Just a second before she fell asleep, she had an interesting thought. 'What were Percy and Nyx doing?'

Line Break – Tomorrow

Percy slowly stirred from a very warm sleep, definitely best rest he had had for a long time. After he opened his eyes, he noticed two very important things about his situation.

1. He was naked.

2. He had a woman sleeping on him that could only be described as godly.

Events from last night came to him and he could not keep the goofy grin from coming on his face. He then felt Nyx stir from her sleep as well and she looked at him with her beautiful black eyes. Percy could only breathe out one word at the naked form of the goddess in front of him.

"Wow." At that Nyx almost lost herself as she howled with laughter at his 'sharp' wit. After a minute, she managed to stop herself from panting and got a lot more serious look.

"Percy, something unexpected happened." At the demigod's raised eyebrow, she continued. "We're having twins."

Line Break

The demiprimordial was strolling through the Palace of Ouranos, rubbing his temples and frowning. Not that he wasn't happy, but he had the worst luck and the luck of the devil at the same time. He got to 'shag a Primordial Goddess' yesterday, which was a pretty big achievement by itself and was going to have twin children. But with the key word being twin, a lot of unexpected things happened, as Nyx had explained to him.

Right now said goddess had about 5-6% of the power she had in the Ancient Times. If there was going to be only one child, they would have been alright. But now there were different things that could happen. Percy had to sacrifice much more to Nyx, since the children were so powerful, they were draining her strength. Both children had the blood of 2 Primordials in them, being children and Nyx and legacies of Ouranos, and when you add up some of Poseidon in there, it gets a little too much. A mortal usually cannot hold the power of more than one Protogenoi, they would combust from power overload.

Now Nyx had to give a big part of her own energy to children to increase their acceptance of power. But at this rate, when the children were born, Nyx could possibly fade. Percy now had to sacrifice spoils of monsters to the Primordial Goddess every day just to keep her from going into slumber. At that time, he also understood how Tartarus was awake from his slumber and so powerful at this time.

Apparently, as somebody used power from the domain of a Primordial, the exerting power did not just fade away, it actually returned to the Protogenoi and gave them more strength. As Aera had started using her powers, Tartarus had gotten stronger and stronger to the point, he was at 18% right now. But he really had so much because he shared his domain with no one, unlike other Primordials.

Percy had no idea how Ouranos was awake doe, as he had been killed by Kronos, but decided against asking. He trusted his dad and he would tell him if it was important.

He was now in Ouranos' Palace just to see Zoe, and then he would go back in Tartarus and just grind monster to monster. It helped train him and save the mother of his children.

Nyx, the mother of his children. He knew they would have no romantic relationship after this, but it felt good saying it. Just thinking about last night brought the goofy smile back on his face as he went to see Zoe talking to some bear. It was weird, but after his last few days, he didn't think he could object without being hypocritical.

"Hey Zoe! Can I speak to you for some seconds?" At Percy's voice, Zoe turned around and she noticed the demiprimordial, but also paid attention to his appearance.

Said demiprimordial had a grin at his face, not-so-slightly ruffled hair, a few buttons were missing from his shirt and with her trained hunter eyes, she noticed a hickey on his neck. Her eyes narrowed, before she realized what had happened and she drew her knife.

"I thought thou were different, but thou are just a disgusting boy as all other males!" The Huntress yelled, as she threw her right knife at Percy, then closed the distance and threw a punch at to his right temple, actually knocking the living daylights out of him as he crumbled on the floor. Before she could continue beating on him, a strong gust of wind threw her aside and into a wall, as she grunted in pain.

"Huntress!" The angry voice of Ouranos made her pale. "How dare you attack my son?" He bellowed as a bolt was thrown against her. Zoe closed her eyes, but the pain never came. A familiar voice, clearly in pain, made her snap her eyes.

"Don't hurt her!" Percy yelled at his father, somehow awake after just a few seconds. Ouranos quickly averted his attention to his son, all the fury disappeared from his face as a look of worry crossed his face.

"Percy, are you alright? I swear, I will make her"- before the Primordial could plan his revenge for the daughter of Atlas, his son interrupted him.

"I'm fine, dad, your power gave me a rush of energy. And you will not do anything to her!" It was not wise to make demands to a Protogenoi, but Percy knew he had to defend one of his only friends right now.

"Why not? She would have killed you!" The Primordial all but yelled, but the anger Percy showed surprised him.

"She's one of the only people I have left." At that, Percy broke down and Ouranos grabbed his son in a bone-crushing hug.

"I'm sorry son, but I got really angry at the sight of her hurting you. Now talk to her and meet me in Tartarus, I have given you a pendant to help you teleport there when you need to." With those words the Primordial teleported and Percy turned at Zoe with an angry expression.

"Why did you attack me, you did not even hear my explanation!" Zoe slightly flinched at his tone, he looked truly scary when he was angry. Then she steeled herself and she glared back.

"Thou dare just return after doing what all of thou disgusting males do, and I thought thou were different! Now tell me which whore thou fucked!" Zoe, while hurt, was too angry to listen to reason. But what Percy said, completely serious, no sarcasm whatsoever, stunned her.

"Your mother." At that, Zoe gaped like a fish a few times, not uttering a word, before settling for a growl.

"Explain."

Line Break-Lunch with Tartarus

As Percy was pacing in the big castle Tartarus called home, he was thinking about his talk with Zoe. After her initial outburst, she had actually been patient and listened to both his as Nyx's reasoning. But at the comment at being her stepdad now, he quickly teleported himself to Tartarus, using the pendant Ouranos had given him. He was now able to get a good look at it.

The pendant was a pitch black one in the form of a lightning bolt, while at the bottom of the bolt there was some fire. It represented the domains of both Ouranos and Tartarus and he was sure, that the black color was going to be used to tease him relentlessly.

As the demiprimordial went into the big room Tartarus used with his daughter to dine, he wanted nothing more than to punch that smirk off of the Primordial's face.

"So Percy, how was last night?" Tartarus asked, wiggling his eyelashes at him and still smirking. Percy just growled at him.

"It was…pleasant, now stop mentioning it!" Percy yelled, trying to get ahold of his blush and failing miserably.

"It's your fault, you accepted her offer." The Primordial of Annoyance and Sarcasm said while holding his arms in the air.

"It's not like she couldn't have raped me or something. I actually have no idea what to expect from her, he actually seemed really nice to me." Tartarus seemed to be snickering at the thought of Nyx raping Percy, and said demiprimordial quickly caught on. "She raped someone didn't she?"

"You need to have both parents' consent for a god to be born. The first time Nyx wanted a child she had to drug and rape Erebus." Then as Tartarus continued cackling like a hyena, Percy looked at Aera. She looked like she wanted to be anywhere but here. He had not really heard from her since his meeting with the goddess of Night.

"But I have to tell you the children will be twins." Said the son of Ouranos, looking again at Tartarus. Said Primordial shrugged, he didn't look surprised, he probably already knew. But then he actually got a serious look.

"We know Percy, but now we have learned something. You have to wake up Erebus in the next few days. You and I will not train for a while, you have to just stroll around my domain and kill monster after monster." At that Percy paled, he really did not want to see Nyx's husband after their time together.

"Why?" Asked Percy, confused. Shouldn't he concentrate on giving power to Nyx?

"Ouranos and I can help Nyx for a while, but this concerns your children. We have seen their destiny and it is of upmost importance that Erebus is woken up as quickly as possible." Percy's eyes widened. The Protogenoi knew his children's destiny?

"Know that we cannot tell you but it is not an easy road. But if they are anything like you, they will succeed." Praised the Primordial for the first time since they met, greatly surprising Percy, but right now he was busy worrying about the future. "You will know when the time comes for you to know." Ended the Primordial ominously and teleported himself from the lunch room.

Both demiprimordials shared a look, then shrugged and went outside for taking down more monsters.

Then the daughter of Tartarus decided to speak up. "So Percy, what's been going on?"

Percy shot her a betrayed look that said 'not you too', before she threw her arms in the air in surrender.

"Not teasing, just curious. So how was it?" She really wasn't teasing, she wanted to know what Nyx was like.

"Well, she was actually really nice. I didn't expect her to be so nice to be around. And hot." Percy muttered, but Aera heard him. She decided not to embarrass him more, her dad and uncle would give him more than enough teasing.

"Well, I got some training in my powers yesterday, but I have no idea how to use a spear. Can you teach me?" Percy thought for a second, because nobody really had tutored him on fighting. He just kinda was a natural and killed monsters.

So the son of Ouranos just shrugged before answering, "I'm going to kill some lesser monsters like hellhounds and dracaena. You should come with me. It might be hard, but that's how I learned what I know. But you should stay in the back."

Aera got really excited at the thought of beating her first monsters and becoming as strong as Percy, but was quite scared. She had never before been in a battle and now her cousin wanted to drag her in her father's domain, where no mortal had survived before. Still, she nodded and the duo went outside from the big palace of her father.

As both demiprimordials were strolling through the red wasteland, Aera suddenly asked a very important question, which seemingly both had forgotten.

"Hey, do you actually know where we are?" At that, Percy got an amused expression, as he really had no idea where he was going.

"Well, I just thought I should just go around and kill stuff and then return with my pendant." He then frowned in concentration before adding. "Well, there is a river 400 meters from here north, but it's not normal. Something is really off."

Aera just raised an eyebrow at the 'not normal' remark, before she remembered there really were no normal rivers in her dad's domain.

"How do you know there is a river there?" Asked the ever curious daughter of Tartarus. She knew her cousin was a son of Poseidon, but detecting water?

"I can feel the water. It gives me power. The same pull you felt when we were coming here. Water is my home turf, Tartarus is yours. But this river doesn't like me something. Has happened before."

"What do you mean 'has happened before'. How can a river not like you?" It was a logical question, rivers don't usually have preferences.

"Every river or tree has a nymph inhabiting it. Some just don't like me." Aera was looking with wide eyes. Every river or tree was alive?

"Anyways, I see some cyclops right there. Keep it down" Percy whispered and pointed at a group of five cyclops arguing about something. While the demiprimordials couldn't hear what they were saying, both got prepared for combat.

The son of Ouranos turned his ring and Hurricane appeared in his arm, softly glowing with blue energy. He glanced at Aera, who didn't have her spear and raised an eyebrow. She scooted to him and whispered.

"I cannot summon it without taking power, I'll summon it during the fight." Percy then just shrugged and thought of a plan.

He then remembered. He wasn't good at doing plans.

"Can you take out the big one while I attack the other 4?" It wasn't a plan worthy of Athena or anything, but it would do. Aera seemed nervous, but still nodded and closed her eyes in concentration, creating her aura around her.

At the sudden outburst of power, Percy almost fell on his bottom. Aera's power was downright terrifying. He quickly composed himself and flew towards the cyclops, getting their attention as they heard the flap of wings.Percy could swear the smallest monster muttered "Mummy" at the sight of him descending.

After a few quick slashes with the silver katana, all four smaller cyclops were golden dust and 4 clubs stood in front of the demiprimordial. He quickly lit them up with a small lightning bolt and prayed 'to Lord Erebus'.

Percy turned around to see Aera glowing red as her spear slashed at the leader cyclops' knee, making it roar in pain, before she struck it in the monster's gut and it disappeared into golden dust.

"Good job, distracting it with that slash at the knee." Praised Percy, as his first experiences were monsters was not as smooth. At that, she looked really embarrassed before answering.

"I saw you do it yesterday to the Minotaur." Percy just nodded and both just continued searching for more monsters, trekking through the endless pit.

Two Days Later

Aera plunged her spear out of a drakon's eye, before it disintegrated into dust, where only a coat of what looked suspiciously like drakon skin. Percy doe wasted no time in sacrificing it. She just pouted at him.

"I liked that." Whined the daughter of Tartarus, before she was cut off by an actually serious glare by Percy. She remembered not to joke about that, since he was already becoming an overprotective father.

The last two days Percy had been killing monster after monster relentlessly, only really stopping to sleep. Aera had been joining him from time to time, but she got tired a lot faster and still had to train with her father. She had managed to kill dracaena, cyclops, hellhounds and now a drakon in the last few days.

Percy on the other hand, was a walking tornado in Tartarus, pulling monsters with his incredibly tasty for them smell, while disposing of them with 2-3 quick slashes of his katana. He already had a name for himself in the Pit, as monsters, who heard a flap of wings just began to run. That did not save them from Hurricane.

Percy was just about to continue slaughtering monsters, before he got teleported. Oh, how he hated the Protogenoi, thinking they can just teleport him like that because someone created them almost omnipotent. Actually, he hated Chaos more, because she created them all.

Nevertheless, the demiprimordial was in the Throne room of Tartarus, as it seemed kind of the meeting point of the Primordials. There was Tartarus, actually looking serious for once. Percy could easily forget he was the eldest Protogenoi, but now he seemed every bit the role.

Nyx was looking at him with a smile, though it seemed sort of pained, as if she was having a rough time. She probably was, the children were draining a lot of her strength. Lastly, on Nyx' side, holding her arm, was somebody he had never seen before.

The man was wearing a black suit, though not as dark as Nyx. But instead, it seemed as if it was drowning the light in the room, absorbing it. The man's eyes had the same effect on the brightness of the room. They were so intensely black, Percy could just keep looking at them for the day. The white pupil was what saved him from staring. Otherwise, the man looked a lot like Nyx. Pale skin, black hair.

Erebus, the Primordial God of Darkness and Shadows. And Nyx' twin brother and husband.

Percy bowed in front of Erebus, not really wanting to test his patience, as he had already slept with his wife. But the Primordial dismissed him with a wave.

"Don't bow, I actually consider you somewhat of a bro." Said, the Primordial with a smirk, making Nyx smack him up the head. "Ow."

Percy was just gaping at the Primordial, mouth opening and closing. The Protogenoi, the first Beings of the world, considered him one of them? Nyx then signed.

"You broke him now." At that, Percy somewhat sobered up, before just signing exasperated. Making all three Primordials raise an eyebrow before he explained.

"Just something I realized some time ago, 'The older they are, the weirder they get'." At those words Tartarus looked offended, Nyx was shaking her head and muttering "Boys…" under her breath, while Erebus was booming with laughter, before he pointed a finger at Tartarus.

"He called you old!" Before he continued to howl in laughter, clutching his stomach.

At Tartarus' black and red eyes glaring at him, Percy gulped. This was not such a great idea, insulting the second Primordial in existence. The Protogenoi then just mock-dried a tear, saying "I couldn't be more proud."

Yeah, Percy's statement was spot-on accurate.

Then all Primordials got serious again, before Tartarus began speaking again. "Now Percy, we need to talk about the future of your children."

Percy was tapping his foot nervously, what was so important of the twin's fate that the Primordials had to speak to him about. The next one who spoke was Erebus.

"Percy, Tartarus and I will bless your son and daughter respectfully and train them in our powers." The demiprimordial was struggling to not react, before just asking.

"Why? Won't they combust from too much power?"

"There are a few things that will happen to them but no, if we do it right now, they won't. The thing is, that our sister Gaea is mustering her children, the Gigantes and preparing them for an attack against Olympus. But after Gaea kills the Olympians, she will take control of the entire world. She will put it the state it was even before the first Golden Age. And that was terrible enough. Your children will be the ones to put Gaea back into slumber." Percy was looking with his pupils widened. Another war? And his children against a Primordial? How will they defeat her?

"Don't worry, she will be weakened and we will personally train them. The will succeed. But you need to know something that Ananke herself said before she fell in slumber after the beginning of the Fifth Age.

When the Big Three fall

Stronger they will answer their Hero's call

Grudges from a thousand years

Shall bring the Gods into tears

Brought forth from the legacy of the betrayed

In the Pit of Darkness they were raised

King of Gods against his children's wrath

As the Primordials create a new path

The Earth's might against the Prince of Night

And Olympus will fall by their Savior's hand"

Percy was unresponsive at hearing the end of another prophecy about his life. This one was written by Ananke herself after Kronos had died the first time. Everything seemed alright, the Prince of Night was probably his son and his twins are raised by Tartarus and Erebus. But who are the Big Four and who is their Hero? And who will kill the Olympians?

"I understand, but where do I come in the picture?"

"You and your friends will defend your children from the Olympians."

He had not expected this. Though he could understand. The gods won't just stand there as two overpowered demiprimordials kill Gaea. But he had forgotten about something that Erebus had mentioned about some changes to them.

"You mentioned there that some changes will happen the twins? What do you mean?"

"Well Percy, first they will adopt some features from us, like eye of hair color. Then they will also age faster. For every second year they will have the progress of another one. The part we need to be more careful about the fact, that they will combust from too much power, when they get 21, if we don't make them immortal. But we can do that easily after you have awakened all of us. You don't have to worry about it. And that will happen only because we are going to bless them right now, while they are still developing." He didn't have to worry? If the twins are captured, they will die from just being 21. That was definitely something to worry about. Then Erebus was the one who spoke.

"That's all for now Percy, but know I will go back in slumber to give my wife more power, but you must also step up your game in sacrifices. Don't waste your time on hellhounds or dracaena. Bye for now."

Percy then got teleported yet again outside, in Tartarus. Didn't the oh so powerful first beings have a way to teleport without making his insides turn up?

Right now Percy was searching for Aera to invite her for more monster hunting. He knew this would be a long few months.

AN: And this is it. I really hope you liked this chapter and here is the prophecy once again:

When the Big Three fall

Stronger they will answer their Hero's call

Grudges from a thousand years

Shall bring the Gods into tears

Brought forth from the twins of the betrayed

In the Pit of Darkness they were raised

King of Gods against his children's wrath

As the Primordials create a new path

The Earth's might against the Prince of Night

And Olympus will fall by their Savior's hand

Now, most is obvious, but a few things will remain unexplained.

Questions:

Direwolf69: Hey man, I just wanted to ask after killing Percy, Zeus said that he would be sent to Fields of Punishment. But he was called and saved by Ouranos. Hades should have noticed this and said about it in the Olympian Meeting.

This would be a good way of showing that, Hades is on their side. I just thought i should give you this idea, if you hadn't planned on it

I will explain it at a later date to Percy, but yes, I have thought about it. Though I am still not sure whether Hades should be an ally or not. There are many possibilities for both outcomes. I like Hades, but there is just so much I can do if he is an enemy. Right now Hades has been threatened into a Styx oath from Tartarus to not spill the beans, nothing more for now.

Direwolf69: Awesome story till now, hope it remains as entertaining as it is now.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy it. Plus, now are just some more boring and introduction chapters. In the future comes the real deal.

Brianx: Great Story man and plus don't make Erebus depressed.

Make a Gentleman charming but mysterious pls.

Obviously he won't be, that was just some sarcasm of Percy. That was also my idea about his character. And I'm glad you're enjoying my story.

tyhiersimon57: Is it going to be Percy X Nyx because if it is that would be really cool...

This chapter should explain most things to you about that specific question.

Autumn and Spring: Can it be a Percy/Zoe harem?

No. Sorry, but I won't be doing any three or four way pairings. I know its fanfiction, but that's just too weird and it is impossible to happen if the characters are somewhat normal. Especially when it is about Percy Jackson. Percy likes girls who do not take shit from anybody and are possessive, like him. They will never share him. And it will also not be about Zoe.

Thanks for the reviews and I hope to see more next time!

I might have said, that I won't do any longer then 6-6.5k chapters, but I wanted this one to somewhat compensate for how long I haven't posted.

I actually had a thought while reading some random fanfiction. If Apollo is the god of Truth, then he cannot lie. So he must be the older sibling. What do you think about that, eh?

I wanted to recommend an author as practically all of his stories are great, especially for me the newer ones: Don Socrates.
