Chapter 1: The Gathering

It was another typical winter solstice meeting

"ZEUS, HOW DARE YOU CHEAT ON ME AGAIN"

"YOU NEED TO EAT MORE CEREAL"

"ENOUGH WITH THE CEREAL WOMAN"

"10000 MAILS"

"I AM NOT YOUR LITTLE SIS"

"COME ON ARTY"

"DON'T CALL ME ARTY"

When a loud boom interrupted the session

"WHO DARES TO INTERR- "Zeus thundered

In front of the shocked gods stood a group of demigods, a satyr and a mortal

"Come on Travis, Annabeth will win" said his brother

"No way, Percy is the best swordsman in years, even better than you-know who" said Travis

"Wise girl is good but Prissy is better" admitted Clarisse

The demigods and Chiron were watching an intense spar between Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase, nobody seemed to realize that they were at Olympus until Percy disarmed Annabeth by twisting the hilt of her drakon-bone sword and they turned to look at their friends

Their mouths fell open when they realized that they were on Olympus

There was another loud boom which startled everybody and in front of them stood a group of demigods from Camp Jupiter

Before Zeus could ask what they were doing on Olympus a note appeared in Annabeth's hands

Dear gods, goddesses, demigods, satyr and mortal and Chiron,

These demigods have been brought from their respective camps to read about the greatest hero and about his and the adventures of him and his friends. Though all of you know the demigods, you do not know what they have actually gone through and now you are going to read about it with these demigods, satyr and mortal as well as spend time with them. Your power will temporarily be taken away (though you will still remain immortal) so that you do not harm any of the demigods about what they think about you except the healing powers of Apollo. The demigods, mortal and satyr must sit with their parent/patron. We will be bringing the demigods who passed away during the first war to join the reading too. There will also be a curse on the books which will be shared. The curse is that you will feel the pain that your children/satyr/mortal felt but however so will the demigods, satyr and mortal. Last thing even though you know your respective children, the satyr and the mortal they are still to introduce themselves but without their titles as we want you to listen and find SPOILERS FOR THE STORIES

Regards

The Fates

5 books dropped on the head of a boy with sea-green eyes, "Why is it always me?" he groaned while the others were chuckling. Another 5 books dropped on the head of one of the boys with blonde hair and specs who says "First bricks and now these" and everyone just started laughing.

This caused a sudden uproar. Zeus was mad about being told to do anything, he was the king of his sake. Poseidon, Hermes and Apollo were glad to spend time with their children. Hades wanted to give it a try with Nico.

This was all cut out by another large boom. In front of them stood the demigods who had died during the first war.

This caused a reaction from the demigods.

Two of the girls ran and punched a guy with a scar and blue eyes and then hugged him. Percy went and said sorry to a guy who would make the biggest of monsters run for their mommies who said that he had nothing to apologize or and it was not his fault. The strong built girl went and hugged a beautiful girl. A blond boy went and hugged two of the boys while crying.

Then Thalia and Apollo caught the eye of a blond haired boy with electric blue eyes.

Thalia raced at top speed and jumped on Jason, causing him to stumble as he hugged Thalia back. The seven raced to the two siblings and engulfed both of them in a hug. Apollo and Jason exchanged smiles and Apollo went up to him and gave him a side hug.

"Demigods, even though we know who you are please do introduce yourself as asked by the fates" said a soft voice which belonged to none other than Hestia

The strong built girl said 'Clarisse La Rue, daughter of Ares". Ares gave a smile to his daughter (he started to like her more after the drakon incident), who gave a small one in return

The boy next to her said "Chris Rodriguez, son of Hermes". Hermes smiled and said "I'm sorry for not claiming you before son". Chris smiled at the son part.

The blonde girl who was sparring stepped forward "Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena". Athena smiled at her daughter but Annabeth didn't smile back. This worried Athena a little

"Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon". He grinned at his father who gave him a proud smile in return.

"Grover Underwood, satyr, Lord of the Wild". Hermes and Dionysus smiled sadly at the memory of their friend who faded

Rachel Elizabeth Dare, Oracle. Apollo smiled at his Oracle while Hades looked at her

"Will Solace, son of Apollo". Apollo gave a blinding grin to his son who returned it with the same enthusiasm

"Nico Di Angelo, son of Hades". Hades gave an acknowledging nod to Nico, who looked at him with his mouth twitching slightly for a smile. Demeter interrupted "You both need more cereal" and both of them just groaned and looked at each other.

"Travis and…

…. Connor

….Stoll"

finished the two brothers together. Hermes grinned at the antics of his sons

"Katie Gardener, daughter of Demeter". Demeter smiled and asked "Do you eat your cereal?" "Yes mother"

"Thalia Grace daughter of Zeus and Lieutenant of Artemis." Zeus gave a nod at this, Hera was grumbling under her breath about Zeus cheating on her again though everybody heard it and Artemis gave a smile to Thalia

"Jason Grace, son of Jupiter" said the boy with blonde hair and specs. Zeus flickered to Jupiter for a second and settled back to Zeus and acknowledged his son. Hera looked proudly at her champion though he was a son of Jupiter.

"Leo Valdez, son of Hephaestus". Hephaestus gave a grunt of approval

"Piper McLean, daughter of Aphrodite". Aphrodite screeched a little and gave piper a smile. Piper cringed a little at the screech but returned the smile a little hesitantly

"Hazel Levesque, daughter of Pluto". Hades flickered to Pluto for a second who smiled at his daughter, then settled back to Hades. He thought that they would have to tell the romans to stick with their greek names otherwise it would cause them a headache.

"Frank Zhang, son of Mars". This time Ares flickered to Mars and grinned at his son who looked at him with a small smile and he flickered back to Ares.

Before the romans could introduce themselves further, Hades interrupted 'Demigods please refrain to using our greek names".

The romans nodded and continued with the introductions

"Reyna Avila Ramirez Arellano, daughter of Bellona". Athena wasn't that happy as she didn't like the romans much

Next the ones who had died introduced themselves

"Luke Castellan, son of Hermes". He gave a smile to his dad and before the other gods could say anything as many of them looked angry "I am really sorry for betraying all of you. I was wrong". He looked at the people from Camp Half Blood "I know I caused a lot of deaths and I really regret that. " They all gave him a small smile, thinking about his sacrifice. He turned to his dad and said "Dad I'm sorry I betrayed you and thought that you weren't a good father and that the Titans would do better. I realized why you couldn't tell me when I died and I realized that I did love you. So I'm really sorry for being so stupid." His eyes had started to fill up with tears and so did his dad's. Hermes stood up and gave his son a hug "its okay and I love you too"

The introductions continued

"Octavian, legacy of Apollo, augur at camp", he stated proudly. Everybody looked at him in disgust including Apollo.

"Zoe Nightshade, former lieutenant of Artemis". Artemis gave her a sad yet proud smile. Thalia, Grover and Percy gave her grins and she smiled in return.

"Charles Beckendorf, son of Hephaestus". Hephaestus gave a proud smile to him and Leo looked up to see the head counselor he had heard so much about.

"Silena Beauregard, daughter of Aphrodite". Aphrodite ran and hugged her daughter

"Lee Fletcher, son of Apollo"

"Michael Yew, son of Apollo"

Apollo went and hugged his sons (all three) "I am very proud of you guys"

Zeus cleared his throat "Now that we are done with the introductions, we should start reading."

The demigods and others went and sat on the couches with their parent/patron (who were currently mortal – sized) that were conjured for them. Hephaestus kept some metal pieces for his children to fiddle with.

Hestia picked up the first book "Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief"

The trio who had been on the quest gave a small groan while Luke flinched a little because this was the first time he tried to kill Percy and they found out that he was a traitor

"Oh yay they are most probably from my point of view" groaned Percy

"Most probably Perce" said Grover
