Zyrak, Prince of the Universe

A/N- I'm back! I am soooo sorry for not posting for so long. I just came back from my holiday so, as I promised, here is the next chapter. By the way I am currently looking for a Beta. So if any of you could help me with that, I would really be grateful. I have decided that I'll post every week, most probably on Saturday or Sunday. I might post twice a week, if I'm in a good mood. If I don't post that week then expect two chapters the next week or an extra-long chapter. I've tried making this chapter long, but making chapters long isn't exactly my strong side. Anyway here's the chapter.

PS- In case you feel the characters are OOC, I am really sorry for that. Some of them are meant to be OOC, while some are not.

PPS- Can you all please review. I could really use your help.

Thanks

Disclaimer- I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

Chapter 3-

3rd Person POV-

A lady, who seemed to be made of earth, and man, whom shadows seemed to envelop, stood gazing at a cloaked figure in front of them. The figure seemed to be telling them something. When the cloaked person finished, the man said, "We are in deep trouble. If the person who has offered help to the Olympians, is the person who we think he is, then the chances of us winning gets narrowed down." "You can't necessarily say that" said the woman. "If it is that person, then he cannot interfere. Only his army can. And that army can be defeated. Some of their generals and lieutenants harbour deep grudges against the Gods themselves. It will be amusing to see them fall apart because of battles among themselves." She stopped and laughed and was joined by the man and the cloaked figure. Plus this time it is not only me battling them, the Titans and of course you and your wife will be fighting with us. With both of you, we will be unstoppable. "

The man accepted the compliment with a smug look on his face. "Yet there is always a chance we might lose. You can never trust Father. He is too unpredictable. It is disadvantage for us. However, rumours are being spread about a certain weapon…." The man trailed of. "Are you saying that you believe those rumours!" exclaimed the woman. "It is utter nonsense. A weapon of infinite power…." "It is true" said the cloaked figure in front of them suddenly, cutting the woman of. "The rumours are true. I even heard those traitor Gods and Goddesses talk about it including Aletheia. And she never lies being the Goddess of truth. We must obtain this weapon." "Very well. Since you seem so determined to get it, you will be the person who should obtain this for us." Said the woman. "You must obtain it before those pesky soldiers arrive."

"You can trust me" said the figure. And just before he disappeared in a whirl of darkness, a beam of light fell on his face. Anyone from Camp Half- Blood or Camp Jupiter would have told you who that person is. No one could mistake the face of the traitor, the son of Zeus, the champion of the Earth,

Robert.

The man and woman laughed in glee.

1 week later-

At Olympus-

Thalia POV-

The throne room was buzzing with excitement. The Olympians had told us about the offer of help from the so called, 'Big and Powerful Voice'. The Gods had been skeptical about the offer and disregarded it at first. But after a certain, ahem, 'wake up call' they accepted the help immediately.

So anyway, here we all are, the hunters (whom I left after the giant war), the immortal campers, the minor Gods and Goddesses, the Olympians and finally the so called demigods. Well I can't call them demigods since, let's say, about 4900 years ago, all the fossil fuels on the Earth ran out and few years later, fresh water. The satyrs and other nature spirits were so angry after that, that it took forever to calm them down. The Gods were pretty angry too. Come to think of it, I haven't seen Demeter that angry since Hades married Persephone. And that was years ago. We, as in the campers and nature spirits, were all able to survive because of the Gods. However the mortals and animals started dying out and this resulted in the western civilization to start fading. We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Hephaestus's brainwave. He proposed that we could convert the humans into half automatons. They could do everything a human could do except eat and die, at least by normal means. So the demigods are to some extent immortal. But there aren't that many demigods since there are not many humans( compared to the number of humans there used to be), so we use automatons sometimes to help us fight.

Anyway that's off topic.

So, here we all are awaiting for our 'Help' to arrive. None of us had any idea about who was offering us help. Athena had nearly broken her head (literally), trying to figure out who the person was. She was so frustrated that, let's say, no one passed their exams today (excepting her children of course).

Suddenly, the lights started flickering and then completely died out. Sudden flashes of light started erupting in the centre of the room. It was so freaky and unnatural that all of us, stood transfixed staring at the light. Suddenly there was such a bright flash the light that everyone, including the Olympians, had to shut their eyes. When the light died out, 6 people stood in the centre of the throne rooms. The lights came back on and everyone's gaze was on the newcomers. They all stood in a straight line facing the Olympians, except one of them, who was in front of them. He was looking my father in the eye. They all were wearing black armour, except one, with face plates covering their faces. The material of the armour was unlike anything I have ever seen. It seemed to have tiny dots which were moving, and on further inspection I realized they were actual stars and planets. When the people moved it seemed to move with them, like it was just another layer of clothes. It was amazing.

The person standing in front was clearly their leader although he did not look like one. He was wearing a suit like Zeus but it was also made of material like the armours the others were wearing. When he turned around and looked at everyone did I realize how, how Perfect he was. When I say perfect, I mean Perfect. It was like seeing the male version of Aphrodite but definitely more powerful. His eyes were the weirdest part about him. They were an endless swirl of black, like Tarturus itself. I got scared that if I looked into those for to long I would get lost. "Snap out of it Thalia" I told myself and turned around to look at the other. They looked as lost as me. Some of them had fear in their eyes while some, like Ares, looked as if they were ready for a fight.

Only on seeing the fear in my Father's eyes, did I release my senses and realize the sheer power the newcomers were emitting. The people in the armour had auras like one of the Big Three but the leader, the leader emitted more power than all of us put together. It was so overwhelming. For a second I felt something I had never felt before. Complete fear. I felt that how much ever I would fight, this person could dispose me in a second. He emitted raw and ancient power. More ancient than even Gaea. I felt I should fall at his feet and beg for mercy. It was scary.

Fortunately the man started speaking and shook me out of my thoughts. He said, "Good Afternoon Olympians I am….."
