A/N: One of the Olympian will die in this chapter. I won't say who.

On Way To Las Vegas

Percy was sat in the passenger seat of the taxi while, Mark and Annabeth, occupied the back seats. He felt more comfortable up front, at least he was away from Annabeth's hands, which seemed to want to hold onto him all the time. He laid his head back and thought back to what had happened last night. Kronos was now aware of his involvement and seemed to have singled him out as the biggest threat. Obviously he had been watching Mark and seeing he was going to be no problem decided that Percy was the only one who could stop his plans. It would be another four hours before the reached Las Vegas, Percy was thinking, how he was going to accomplish his goals. First thing was to make sure he wasn't affected by the Casino, he couldn't really care if Mark and Annabeth was affected, as long as he wasn't. He was pulled from his thoughts by the taxi driver.

"So you kids travelling across the State?

Percy wasn't sure what to say, so instead decided to just nod. "Yeah were meeting our parents in LA, we would have flown but my brother as a fear of flying, so we had to travel across the state by train and taxi."

The taxi driver nodded. "Well your parents must be loaded, I mean this is a huge job, compared what we are use to around here. In fact this is the furthest I think I have ever been in taking passengers."

Percy groaned. "Well both are brokers for a big company in New York. Their job included travelling all across the state, sometime there called away on International business as well. This is the first time they have asked us to join them.

Taxi driver nodded. "Well the way were going, we should be there in few hours. Where did you say you wanted me to drop you all off?"

"The Lotus Hotel please." Percy said quickly, before Mark or Annabeth could object.

Lotus Hotel

Percy thanked the taxi driver and gave him a small tip for all the trouble. He, Mark and Annabeth then walked into the hotel. He had told Mark and Annabeth they would spent the night here, and then continue their journey to Santa Monica tomorrow. He didn't seem to get much objection, as all three were tired and hungry. Percy walked up to the main reception, even when they had passed through the main door Percy could sense there was something wrong with the whole place.

"Excuse me. I would like to book three rooms for the night. If you could arrange for two standards and one of your most expensive suites then it would be appreciated." He turned to see Annabeth, hands on hips and Mark just glaring at him. Percy shook his head. Least they could do was be grateful. He snapped from his thoughts as he heard the receptionist.

"Well we have two standards and supreme available, would you like me to go head and book them?"

Percy nodded before handing over his credit card. Once the transaction had been completed, the porter showed them to their rooms. Mark and Annabeth were on one of the lower floors, while his own suite was based at the very top. The three had arranged to meet up down in the lobby once they had put all their things away. Percy was wondering what room Bianca and Nico could be in. He knew Hades wouldn't have allowed them to stay in anything cheap, and guessed that they must have one of the residential pent houses, above him. Now the problem was how to gain access to them? Percy decided to put that thought from his mind for now and left his room, before climbing into the elevator. When he reached the bottom of the lobby he noticed, that Annabeth and Mark wasn't there. He was wondering where the could possibly got too when the receptionist called over.

"Excuse sir, if you're wondering where your friends are, one of our staff took them into the main casino as they were wanting something to eat. Our restaurant is in there."

Percy hid his smirk. He had to admit putting the main restaurant within the actual casino itself was quite brilliant, especially when the restaurant was located right in the middle of the trap.

Percy then turned to see a gentleman looking at him. "If you like sir, I could take you too your friends?"

Percy slowly backed up. "Hmm no thanks, I think I will just call room service."

Percy noticed the man shake his head. "Sorry sir, I am afraid to inform you that we don't offer room service at this Hotel, but I am sure your friends are waiting for you. Let me take you to them."

Percy growled, before pulling out his pen and extended into a sword, he noticed the porter immediately back off. "Back away now, I know exactly what this place is, I don't intend to be trapped in here for eternity. Now unless you want me to run you through a suggest you leave me alone." Percy watched the guard quickly call into his intercom, however before he could finish he was cut in a half and turned to dust. Percy turned to face the receptionist, he brought his blade towards her. "I want to know where Bianca and Nico Di Angelo are. Now!"

The woman scared for her life quickly ran the names through her computer. "There in the top pent house. However I am afraid it restricted access." Woman gulped as Percy blade rested against her neck.

"Lets just say I have message from their father for them. Now unless you want to join your pal over there in the underworld, then I suggest you find a way to get me up there. Understand?"

The receptionist nodded, she was helpless and wondered why the other guards hadn't shown up. She grabbed a key from one of the drawers and handed to him. "That key gives you special access to the top pent houses. There in one of them."

Percy retracted his blade, and left the receptionist shaking. He then pocketed it and walked into the left, just as the door closed he noticed the lobby suddenly filled with security guards. Percy rested himself against the wall of the elevators, why did they have to make it so difficult for themselves? He noticed the lift stopped and a tall blonde blue eyes woman dressed in red walked in. Percy waited until the lift door closed before speaking

"Boy I must be lucky. Two visits from the Olympian council in less then two day apart. So what brings the whore of Olympus to see me?"

The woman turned to Percy. Her eyes narrowed dangerously. "Watch your tongue mortal! I am Lady Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and you will show me the respect I deserve."

Percy cracked up laughing confusing the Goddess. She wondered what was so funny, when she heard Percy say.

Lady Aphrodite, bit far fetch don't you think. After all would a lady cheat on her own husband, with his brother? Would a lady open her legs for every mortal, God and Demigod alike?"

Aphrodite was furious. She wanted to smite the little brat right there and then, until she remembered the warning by Chaos. Still if she couldn't interact with him directly, she could still indirectly. A small smile graced her lips.

"Why I am here is to get some answers from you. I have never met anyone like you Percy. You are some what of an enigma to me, you see as the Goddess of Love, I can sense emotions within mortals. This is how I match those who are compatible with each other, but you are different. You long for a girl you have never meet before, yet your feeling for her are that of someone who has been in love for years. You also harbour a certain amount of hate for a certain daughter of Athena, who until camp had never actually met. You feel as if she has betrayed you somehow, yet the reason still eludes me. The only logical explanation I can come up with, is that you are not from this time, but from somewhere else in the future. You were in love with your Annabeth and she broke your heart, this would explain your strong hatred for this Annabeth of this time. Also it would explain your feelings for a certain daughter of Zeus. If I would have to guess, then some time in the near future she his removed from the tree, and you too grow close, but I sense another in your heart Perseus, and this is where you give your whole game plan away. You have small feeling for an eleven year old girl within this very building, a certain daughter of Hades to be exact. Your heart is filled with guilt, and I am guessing she was taken away from you before her time."

Percy growled. "What do you want Aphrodite? If you know so much about me, and know that I am from another time, then why not take it to Zeus?

Aphrodite giggled. "Where is the fun in that. I don't plan to expose you Perseus, but I do intend to make your love life more interesting." After all I am the Goddess of Love.

Percy suddenly had flash back to the time he was in the Limo, where Aphrodite had said the same thing. He growled, before removing his blade and infusing it with the power of Chaos, he held it against the Goddess of love's neck, much to her surprise. Percy's eye's glowed."

"It was your interference in the last time time, that caused me pain. You were the one who took Annabeth from me and gave her to my no brain brother. You then interfered in mine and Thalia life and ended up making her a slave to Artemis and her hunters, all because you made her fall in love with me, making her break her vow. You're worst then all the Olympian put together, the why you toy with the Mortals emotions, just so you can get your sick perverted kicks out of it. Well enough is enough. Maybe the world would be better without your fucking nose in every mortal business."

With that Percy immediately stabbed the Goddess of Love, she watched her eyes widened. As she looked down and saw the strange purple energy over taking her body. She looked into the cold golden eyes of Perseus and saw him smirking. Before she screamed and faded to nothing.

Olympus

Zeus was sitting in his throne, when he noticed Aphrodite's throne begin to crumble right before his eyes. There was only one reason this would happen, and that was if a God or Goddess had faded or worse been wiped from existence.

"Hermes call a council meeting Immediately. Percy has claimed his first Olympian!"

Hermes appeared in front of his father, he was wondering what had happened, when he saw the now crumbled throne of Aphrodite. He immediately left intending on getting everyone assembled. An hour later and all the Council was present they were wondering what the big emergency was until the saw the crumbled throne. Zeus immediately began the meeting.

"It seems someone did not take Chaos's warning and invoked the wraith of young Perseus. She has now paid for her deeds. Let this be warning to all of you."

All the Olympian just stayed silent mourning the passing of one of their own.

Lotus Hotel

Percy watched with a satisfied smirk. All that was left of the Goddess was gold dust. He had taken the life of his first Olympian. Percy thought he would feel regret In doing so, but found he felt more alive then ever. Especially now he knew the Goddess of Love wouldn't be sticking her nose in his business anymore. He walked up to the one of the doors and knocked. For while there was no answers. Percy was about to try the next one when he saw the door open. He smiled as he recognised a much younger Bianca looking at him.

"Hi can I help you?"

Percy smiled, it was good to see Bianca in the flesh once more. The last time he had seen her was in her spirit form. "Hi my names Perseus. You're father sent me to have a little chat with you. Mind if I come in?"

Bianca was confused, as far as she knew she didn't have a father, still she and her brother had been stuck in this room for so long, that maybe it would be good to have someone to talk to, beside if he was trouble then they could always use the alarm system in the suite. She stepped aside and allowed Percy to enter their suite, he noticed Nico was on one of the sofa's playing a video game.

"Who was that sis?"

Percy noticed the ten year old boy, stopped playing his game and turned to see a boy a few years older then himself standing next to his sister. He immediately went on the defensive.

"Who are you?, What do you want with me and my sister?"

Percy smiled again. It seems even at ten Nico was still into the doom and gloom look. Percy walked to the sofa. "My name is Perseus, and I have something to tell you both."

Both children took a seat on one of the other sofa's keeping close together, Percy could sense they were still not sure about him. Percy could understand their caution, after all he doubted they had many visitors. He wasn't sure how to begin.

"Do you too know anything about Greek mythology?"

Nico and Bianca nodded their heads. It was Bianca who decided to speak. "Our guardian left a few books for us to read on the subject. She said it would be very important in our future. However we haven't seen her for a few days now."

Percy's eyes widened. Days? It must be at least 70 years, after all both of them was born shortly after world war 2. Percy decided to shake his head of the thought. And try to explain to both children just what they were. "Okay you two know what a demigod is?"

Bianca again nodded her head. "A demigod, is a child that is half god half mortal. One example is Perseus, slayer of the Kraken and the Titan Medusa, he was the son of Zeus."

Percy nodded. "Correct, now you are most likely wondering why, I asked you the question?"

Bianca and Nico, just kept quite and nodded. Percy sat back on the sofa. "Would you believe me if I told you I was a demigod, and that you two are one too."

The children eyes widened, as they looked at each other in complete surprise. They then turned back to Perseus. Again it was Bianca who decided to speak. "If we are demigods, then do you know who our Godly parent is?"

Percy smiled before nodding. "Yes I do, and he sent me here with a message for both of you. He said that you too will be picked up shortly and taken to a school were you will stay for the next two years. Once those two years are over, me and few friends will come and pick you up, and take you to camp half-blood, where you will begin your training as a demigod. However what will make you different from the other demigods, is that your father is considered one of the big three of Olympus. He is in fact Lord Hades God of the underworld."

Percy noticed Nico eyes lit up. "Really? Hades is really our father. That so cool. Of all the Gods Hades is my favourite."

Percy grinned. "Now as you grow older, you will begin to learn about your powers. As both of you are a child of Hades, then you have power over the earth, and the dead. Which means by a simple thought you could call an undead army to your side in an instant. Also you will have a unique way of getting around known as Shadow travelling. This will allow you and your sister to meld into any shadow and appear anywhere you want. Which will be rather handy when you come to face with monsters."

Bianca eyes widened. "Monster, what do you mean by monster Perseus? I thought they were all make believe?"

Percy shook his head. "No monsters are real, although they have done a good job in hiding themselves in this time. Many of them will look almost human, but don't be fooled, this will just be a shell they are using. I tell you this now, a Monsters favourite food is a demigod, and once they smell you then you will be chased all your life. It is why demigods are trained at camp half-blood so that they can defend themselves when the time comes.

Bianca was confused about something and looked at Perseus with a puzzled expression."Smell, what do you mean by smell us?"

Percy sighed. "As demigods we give of a certain scent that attracts monsters, and those who wish to harm us. Now I have to be going, but hopefully I will see you two soon."

Just before Percy got up, Bianca came up to him and climbed onto his lap, before giving him a big hug. Percy felt a little uncomfortable but soon returned the hug. Aphrodite had indeed been correct when she had mentioned that someone else had been in his heart. He still felt guilty for her death and promised that this time around he would protect her and Thalia with his life. Percy broke the hug, and then got up, and walked towards the door. He turned to both children and gave them a warm smile.

"I will see you both in a few years. Until then behave." Both children gave him a look of innocence which he knew was fake straight away. He shook his head and walked out of their room and back into the leift. He noticed the golden Dust was still scattered on the floor. Percy sighed, he had no idea how long he had been in the room, after all time was different within these walls. He walked into the lobby and noticed the same receptionist was looking at him with fear in her eyes. He walked up to the counter.

"Tell me how long I have been here, and don't give any bullshit, I know how this place works, and how times speeds up, outside."

The woman nervously spoke "Two days."

Percy nodded. "Very well I want you to get my friends out of the Casino. Unless of course you want to end up in the underworld."

The receptionist paled at that threat and immediately left her desk and walked straight into the casino. A few minutes later, the receptionist returned with Mark and Annabeth looking lost. Percy growled.

"I told you two, wait here for me. Now we lost almost two days, because you were trapped in that casino. Go grab your bags now, were leaving. We have two days till the deadline. I will call us a taxi. Now move it."

Both Annabeth and Mark eyes widened when Percy mentioned they had spent two days in the hotel, to them it had seem like a few hours. They could see Percy was pissed off, and didn't want to anger him further, he watched as both of them vanished into the lift, just before the door closed Percy shouted.

"Mind Lady Aphrodite on the floor." Annabeth looked at Percy confused, she then looked down at the gold dust now by her feet. Her eyes widened.

"Percy you didn't?"

Percy grinned back. "Yes I did!"

A/N: So One of the Olympian Council has met her fate. Who will be next to die. Just have to wait and find out.
