"Yes, your majesty!" Zeus then lowered the master bolt, walked to me, and kneeled before me.
It was so silent on Olympus you could here a pin drop. Or rather, the gear of a machine falling from Leo's hands, who hastily picked it up. Nobody could say anything as Zeus bowed down to Perseus, and Percy 'confidently' strode to him. During this time frame, the body of a certain witch was dragged away from the room by a certain warlock...
Perseus whispered in Zeus's ear, "You are going to let me escape. After that, you will not remember what happened. The Geass I used on you will remain dormant until I call for you. Understood?" Zeus gave a single obedient nod. "Good."
Percy then started to walk out of the throne room like if nothing happened.
Ares immediately blocked Percy's path. "Where do you think you're going, pu-" Woosh! "Agh!"
Ares fell on one knee as he felt the pain from the MASTER Bolt. Everyone turned to Zeus, who was brandishing another lightning bolt."If you get in Perseus's way, I shall personally fry you until you fade.", Zeus said, daring anybody to come forward. Suddenly, he clutched his head and moaned in agony. As quickly as it started, it ended. Zeus looked at the crowd, blinking the dancing spots from his eyes.
"Why so quiet? Anyway let's continue with the award ceremony. I believe Perseus was next?" The crowd said nothing as the king of the gods wondered if something happened to them. Either way, Percy was nowhere to be found...
Percy was riding the elevator with a cloaked man and...C.C.?!
"C.C., is that you?", Percy asked, astonished that the daughter of Hecate could survive the Master Bolt.
"Yes, Percy it's me.", C.C. monotonously said, tired of answering over and over if she's alive during her lifetime.
"How did you survive?! That the thing is enough to level a city!", Percy cried out, and C.C. merely chuckled.
"I've seen worse, child.", C.C. said bluntly. She was by Le-er, Zero's side when she saw 35 million people get killed by the F.L.E.I.J.A. bomb.
Percy was curious and unamused at the same time. First of all, she survived the Master Bolt. Second of all, she talks to him as if she were older. Lastly, she says she 'has seen worse'. What could be more damaging than the weapon of the king of the gods? What's next, the mysterious cloaked figure is her boyfriend?!
"C.C.," the cloaked man's voice rumbled startling Percy,"I think we need to tell him of what he could become."
The cloaked man turned to Percy. Violet eyes with bird-like signals met sea-green ones. Wait, BIRD SIGNALS!?
"I command you Perseus Jackson, to bring justice without boundary, to make a place where there is no violence, no famine, no poverty, and no destruction. I command you to make this world a better place, to defeat evil, and to create this world in your lifetime.", the cloaked man offered, "This is something you can decide from your own free will. If you refuse, you will forget that we were here and continue your path on your own. However, if you do accept you shall become a great figure that will inspire peace and hope. Which do you choose, hero?"
Percy's eyes were ringed with red. Should I accept this and help the world? But what about my friends at camp? How can I be so selfish...?
Percy made his choice.
"HE DID WHAT?" Zeus could not believe his own ears. The demigod made him, the king of gods, a mere servant?!
"Artemis! Rally your hunters, and tell them to bring Perseus Jackson either dead or alive!" At once, Artemis left, but she wondered what happened to the noble boy she once knew.
The council was then adjourned and the ceremony was cancelled. The demigods were being transported by Apollo to Camp-Half Blood.
The remaining seven demigods were thinking the same thing about their fellow hero. Percy, what happened to you?
Dramatically pointing his finger at the man, Percy declared, "I, Perseus Jackson, accept your terms only if you help me with my geass!"
The man immediately pulled off his cloak to reveal a white, elegant suit that had a flowing white cape on the right side. Gold lacing lined the rims and cuffs of the outfit, and a hat with a red jewel in its center was on top of the man's head.
"As you wish, and here is your help.", the man said, speaking like an emperor.
Suddenly, the red ringed around Percy's left eye turned into an immense blue, and he doubled over in pain, gasping at the sudden change.
"What the hell did you do to me!?", Percy half-screamed, half-cried in pain.
"You wanted help, and there it is.", the man responded.
The pain dulled, but Percy's eye was still adjusting to his surroundings.
C.C. gasped. "You gave him-" "Yes, I gave him a gift that I have given to no other. I gave him... THE GEASS-CANCELLER!"
Percy now could see everything and felt power conflicting inside of hi, ready to tear him apart. Yet, the powers were balanced, and he felt at ease. Deciding to activate his geass, his left eye turned to the red-glowing bird signal, but he soon figured out something was wrong with his right eye. C.C. observed Percy with slight fascination, never seeing anything like this in her centuries's worth of life.
Percy, now looking at the reflective railings on the elevator, immediately saw his right eye had a blue-glowing bird signal his right eye had, except it was upside down.
"What is this?", Percy asked, freaked out about his latest geass.
"This, Perseus, is the geass-canceller. Just like the name suggests, this will cancel out your geass on the people you use your geass on. So basically-"
"So basically I could use my geass on the again?", Percy interrupted quite eagerly.
The man smiled. Or more like smirked. Just like seeing a child with a new toy...
"Something like that. You may use your geass on any person infinitely, but I would rather just make them obey once." The man took off purple lenses off of his violet eyes.
"What are those for?", Percy asked, intrigued at the sight.
"Those are special lenses designed to contain your geass just in case if it goes out of control.", C.C. responded, taking the lenses from the man and putting them in a box.
"How do you know all of this? And if I can, what is your name?", Percy asked, glancing at the man with curiosity.
"I actually once led a life of hard battles in life, both literally and metaphorically. I lost friends and family." A tear started to form as the man remembered a certain pink-headed princess, a fiery red-head, and his friends at the academy.
Suddenly, his expression turned into a very determined one. On instinct, he flung his arm to the right, making his cape flow like there was wind in the elevator.
"My name is Lelouch vi Britannia, and I have come.. to make the world.. ANEW!"
