CHAPTER 2
Gaia's arena
3rd Person POV
Percy's skin suddenly went translucent, letting the orange fiery glow of his blessing show. He charged at Gaia with such speed, that a sonic boom could be heard from all of Athens. The demigod audience gasped at the sudden increase of speed. The gods however were not impressed, it was just a small portion of the speed he would have gotten with the god's blessing. Not only that, that speed would still be too slow to defeat Gaia. Gaia was sending tremors through the ground, and was sending waves of dirt at Percy. The ground kept attempting to grab Percy's feet and make him sink, but he was too fast.
Percy's power seemed to grow more and more powerful during the course of the battle. At just 1 minute, Percy was emanating more power than a full grown Titan. The gods were shocked by this discovery. Percy would attack gaia with more force than the entire olympian council. Every couple of seconds Gaia would knock Percy back, leaving him sprawling on the ground
"How does he keep getting more power with every strike? Even all of our blessing should not have given him this much power, he would have needed to practice for years to reach this power!" Zeus asked the council, while still trapped in his chair
For once Athena was speechless
Percy POV
I was baraging gaia with attacks so that she would not have the time to regain strength. Every so often, I would slow down and run out of power. During that time, Gaia attacks me, leaving me on the ground. Yet I would get up because of a couple of names...

All of those people are counting on me. With each strike back from Gaia, I remember a name and gain another burst of energy. I can't let them down!
"NEVER WILL I LET THEM DOWN!" I scream. With that last scream/ Effort I managed to stab Gaia's heart/essence with Riptide… Everybody gasped… Gaia still stood there with a smile on her face.
Yep, that's a creepy primordial for you, standing there smiling as her essence should have been dissolving
"Awww Perseus, you think your little toothpick can destroy my soul? With that much power, you might have been able to make a God explode with little scrape, but I am the Earth! I can't even be sent to Tartarus… Though, I wouldn't mind a little show as you kill yourself trying to 'end me'. Enjoy the afterlife Perseus Jackson" she said as a dirt sword stabbed me from the back…
Annabeth's POV
Dam (A.N: Ha) this stupid chair! I can't find any way out of it. Watching this battle is torture. Why you ask? One might think it is because my boyfriend was being attack by a creepy hobo of a primordial, but noooooo… Instead it was because of the fact that I can't see it in the first place! Percy and Gaia were moving too fast for demigods to see and understand, even with our ADHD. Then came the army… an army of dirt warriors popped out of the ground and I don't think Percy was aware of them. One of them snuck up on Percy and uhhh, stabbed him from the back. Even with the God's blessing, he was still a demigod and hence still bled. Percy spat out blood. Then he… smiled. Wait, WHAT. Then he laugh. He laughed so hard that he was curled up on the ground, but was spitting more blood. Has he gone delusional? Oh schist…
"And now I have broken him!" Gaia smiled "Your pathetic 'Hero of Olympus', has gone mad."
"Oh no Gaia, I'm just fine, it's just that you practically gave me the answer on how to defeat you." Percy said with a huge grin, blood dripping down his mouth.
Percy just flipped backwards, breaking the dirt arm/sword in his stomach. He then turned around to see the other 12 of Gaia juniors. He just held his arms outwards and concentrated till he managed to transport water from the Pacific Ocean!
"How can he do that! That level of water control almost matches Poseidon!" Zeus thundered (A.N: Pun totally intended (;)
My mother once again was speechless.
Meanwhile Percy doused all 12 Gaia Jrs. + Miss Potty sludge herself, with water.
"What was the point of that you stupid demigod, it did nothing but annoy me!"
"Oh it was just something I learned from Annabeth"
I tensed
"Chemistry 101: Wet mud dries up with heat quicker when wet"
Percy just screamed and suddenly the temperature went up at least 20 degrees. I looked down and saw that the reason. Percy had somehow managed to fill the Arena with fire, drying up and melting all the 12 Jrs. and leaving Gaia weakened.
"That effort was futile, Jackson" She said as her body patched up with dirt "I can always call on the Earth to fix me . Little advantage of literally BEING the Earth. Meanwhile, your demigod body will not hold you power for much longer." she said, pointing at his orange, glowing body, and at the flames that were slowly, but clearly, dying.
As if on cue, Percy collapsed on the ground blood, pooling around him.
Silence
*Stab
"Are you enjoying this Percy?" she said as she stabbed him again "I gave you the option to come with me and let me give you a painless death, but nooooo, you had to go ahead and try to be the hero"
*Stab
"Newsflash HERO, there are no such things as HEROES."
*Stab
"It's just a stupid idea to make people feel better… NOBODY IS A HERO!"
Gaia attempted to stab him again, but with some miraculous strength, he lifted his hand up and got Gaia's blade stuck in his hand.
"Heroes do exist, and I will prove it to you… All of you… Annabeth" He said and I gasped "Remember me…"
With that he screamed and created a giant ball of solid energy, with him as the core
"Look away!" My mom screamed
With that I turned around, but was still knocked out by the power of the blast…
CLIFFHANGAR AGAIN!

THE SUPPORT HAS BEEN GREAT!
