A/N- ok so I might not be able to update as often as I'd like to within these next couple of weeks. Before you kill me, I would like to say that this is because of school projects putting together county presentations and state presentations (man I hate these presentations they are so annoying…), getting ready, and studying for a state level competition in less than a week.

BIG thanks to PeaceLoveAndCheese and sciencelover who where the only two to review the last chapter!

Well for now, here is… what chapter is this now? ... 4? Oh well you know what I mean

Disclaimer: I'm not Rick Riordan

~In time, you will help me by leading my armies and together we will bring the gods to their senses. Until tomorrow you must rest and we will continue your training remember it will only get harder as time goes on."

Thousands of questions raced through my mind but before I could come to ask any, I fell and everything went black… ~

Percy pov (starts in dream)

I was back on earth? No it couldn't be… the grass was too green and the sky too clear plus there was no sign of life (other than plants) in sight. Everything was eerily still. Until I turned around…

Two hooded figures stood on opposite ends of a huge field. One wore a dark cloak, almost black, like the night. The other one however was pitch black but when I looked closely, I saw tiny specs on the cloak. They seemed like stars and when I looked closer, I noticed they moved…

Cutting off my train of thought, the two figures suddenly approached each other in a deadly dangerous way. The cloaked figure to the left, the one with the stars, started talking to the other "daughter, you will never be able to win. I control all that is- heck, I am all that is. The power you seek is not for you, this is worthless you know you will never beat me yourself as you never have, my armies only grow stronger as yours seems to be… ah- struggling." the voice was powerful and sounded ancient like it has the accent of every language and at the same time is both threatening and comforting.

A voice that has been all too familiar lately replied "oh but you see it's different this time. You said it yourself 'I myself' will never match your power therefore will never be able to beat you. But what if it's not me you have to worry about… mark my words you will not stand much longer!"She was practically shouting at this point, which completely took away the soothing tone her voice normally had when she talked to me. Now it sounded sharp, dangerous, like her words themselves could kill even a god.

As she began to vanish, I felt my eyes flutter open. It was only a dream? But it felt and sounded so real…

I am in a room that was blank. Literally. Everything is white with no designs from the bed to the dresser to the walls. Blank.

At that moment, another hooded figure walked in (what's up with everyone wearing cloaks?) it was one from my dream, the one with the off black, night color cloak, the one that owned the voice of the woman. The voice, which has been haunting me for days, and is now here to help me, or so she says. Is it just me or does something not make sense?

My mind is extremely fuzzy. Not like the time when Hera took my memories, no, I still remembered everything. However, whenever I try to think something out too much my head hurts and I get this fuzzy feeling. Like when I was thinking about accepting this persons offer to join them, I tried to think about it, the good and bad possibilities, but I couldn't and something felt almost as though it was telling me to accept.

"The transfer is complete you will continue your training in 10 minutes I expect you to be ready no later" was all she had to say and left. Who exactly was she? She said that she is the night…

So many questions I don't know where to start. I guess one could be what transfer?

I got dressed and at exactly 10 minutes, a black light engulphed me and next thing I knew I was standing back in … I don't know what to call it… for now let's just say the place of nothing. Just like before there was nothing but darkness like night.

The cloaked woman stood not 2 feet from me. "Perseus you have gained much power over night as a result of my blessing. Whatever you wish to do, can be done and you are immortal. Got it, ok, moving on. You will be introduced to your army when I am satisfied with your understanding and control over your powers. Any questions?" she said it all so fast I barely had time to process what she was saying but when she said questions I jumped on it (metaphorically of course). Who are you? Where am I? What do you mean, my army?... they all spilled out at once.

"Well to answer some of them, you are in the void of night, your army means that you will be the commander and leader of my entire army so soon they will be yours, and as for who I am have you truly not figured it out yet? This is my domain the void of Night" she put the emphasis on the word night and that's when it clicked. (Yea ok, don't yell at me we all know I'm slow so deal with it.) "You're Nyx.?.?" I stammered out half sounding like a question.

She seemed relived. "Yes I am Nyx Primordial goddess and the second being(a/n idk if that's true I was just too lazy to search it sorry) and direct daughter of chaos. I was created by his essence and have most his powers though not to the same extent. And you have the potential to poses the same power as I. but first you must train…" and with that, she attacked me. (I was going to cut it off there but I was board so you guys better review)

To say I am surprised would be a severe understatement. As quick, as I could I dogged the strike of the knife that appeared in her hand not a millisecond ago. She was moving at speeds that seemed faster than light itself. And because I was so far successfully dogging her attacks, I could only assume that I was too. "How is this at all fair! You have all the power and weapons and I have nothing!" I shouted/complained. "Where you at all listening to me before? If you would learn to pay attention to more than just the fight itself you would stand a better chance, and you have power too if you where listening." With that, she sounded rather annoyed. I tried the water trick that I had done on the guy that attacked me the other night and it didn't work. "Perseus your going to need to try new things otherwise you'll lean nothing new." But water is all I know and there is no other source of water around here. As if reading my mind she says "oh but you see there is water here but you can do so much more." My legs and other limbs suddenly felt weak and I fell to the ground only to see water particles floating around me. She was not only controlling the water within my body but extracting it. Sudden strength came as I realized that she willed all the water back to my body.

Before I could try it myself she complained/ordered "oh no more water do something different."

I couldn't think if only I had more time… something felt weird and I felt more tired, when I looked up Nyx stood before me, frozen, not like ice but in time. I then moved behind her and took her dagger holding it just before her neck and thought willing time onward. She stopped moving forward fully aware of the dagger beneath her neck "ah Perseus I see you finally get it you can do anything so next time that you mess with time get your own weapon…" after a second I realized why she said that as the dagger from my hand disappeared and relocated itself to its place on her weapons belt.

We went on like that each time I learned a new 'trick' or power and Nyx would ultimately find her way out – the whole time she seemed as if she was just toying with me. Eventually I figured out what she meant by I could do more than that with water. I quickly grow more and more tired by the second Nyx takes advantage of this, and whirls around, pining me in an inescapable position. I had lost my first training battle with Nyx, surprised at how long I lasted, and yet feeling as though the entire time she was holding back much power.

"You are ready to meet your army" was all she said as she vanished along with the room of nothing bringing me back to my Blank bedroom still in shock of all that had just happened. More thoughts came to mind, I begin to truly get worried… will I ever see me friends again even though they hate me, would we ever be able to fix the problems between each other? I felt on the verge of tears remembering that I was alone my family hates me now(reminder- they don't really hate him, they are searching the world for him, Nyx used magic to make him believe that the hate him), the only one I have to rely on now is Nyx.

A/N- ok now that that's done I have more research and studying to do (ugh-ok I like the actual competition parts but preparing for all this every year is the worst.) Sooo…
