AN: Sorry for the long wait, I got really busy with school and Christmas. I'm going to start cranking out chapters every other day. Also, please leave reviews/comments about SoK or what you want to happen in SoK!
SON OF KRONOS
Chapter Three
The great Half-Blood War had been raging for a week now. The cabins had split into two opposing sides; Apollo, Hades, Zeus, Dionysus, Hephaestus, Demeter, Ares, and Iris fighting Draco; Poseidon (Percy believed Draco was innocent), Hypnos, Athena, Hecate, Aphrodite, and Hermes were protecting Draco's honor. The camps fought every day, and no side was willing to budge just yet. The Olympian gods knew this, and they realized this war would never end unless they made an appearance in the camp. "We must end this conflict now before they slaughter themselves." Athena stated. "Agreed." said Zeus. "We shall visit our children and end this war."
Draco was surprised at the turn of events. He couldn't predict that Camp Half-Blood would erupt in a civil war. His father would be pleased. Kronos could take a casual stroll to Olympus while the gods were fighting each other and destroy Olympus, sending the world into a Golden Age. Draco was just about to contact Kronos when lightning lit up Camp Half-Blood. Everyone stopped fighting when they heard Zeus roar "SILENCE, HEROES!" Athena stepped forward and said, "Demigods of Olympus, you must end this foolish war now. Kronos is advancing to Olympus, and we need your help to stop him. We Olympians have decided, to end this war, to eradicate the cause of this war. Draco Saeculum, step forward now." Draco slowly walked towards the goddess of wisdom. "I am Draco, Lady Athena." "Draco Saeculum, for your involvement in causing a civil war, therefore helping Kronos, you shall be banished to Tartarus for your crimes." Athena stated. Draco was about to complain when the Aphrodite cabin gasped. Rachel Dare, the Oracle, had slipped into a trance.
Green mist surrounded her body, and everyone started to freak out as she said,
Time's bounty is due
For tomorrow is a day demigods will rue.
His sword will swing true
With or against you.
"What does that mean?" Percy said. "Time's bounty is due?" "We should be more concerned with who 'Time' is. He sounds like a traitor." Annabeth said. "Enough!" Zeus thundered (pun intended). "Draco Saeculum, BE GONE!" Draco screamed as a black portal opened and obsidian arms grabbed him and pulled him into the portal.
Draco woke up in a dark palace. "Wha-where am I?" "Relax, child." A voice said as a towering figure entered the room. "I am your carnifex, your torturer during your span in Tartarus. Now, I would suggest you prepare yourself for today's lesson: how to survive a beating."
