(Author's Note: Hi guys, I'm back with the remake. Hope you enjoy:)
Chapter One: Percy Jackson VS. Aang
It's Percy Jackson and the Olympians vs. The Last Airbender. The world itself will shake as the savior of Olympus battles the Avatar. Will Aang's diverse skills be too much for the demigod to handle? Or will Percy's experience and training turn the tides on the young air nomad?
Zap: Throughout fictional history, you'll find all manner of weapons and abilities. But, these two combatants command the very elements around them.
Dark: Perseus Jackson, the son of Poseidon.
Zap: And Avatar Aang, the last airbender. To make this fight fair, we will be using Aang as he appeared in the Last Airbender show and comics. Not his adult self that is mentioned and has appeared in the Legend of Korra.
Dark: He's Zap and I'm Dark-
Zap: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win a death battle.
[+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+]
Dark: Percy Jackson is the son of the sea, savior of Olympus, and one of the most powerful half-bloods on the planet.
Zap: But he didn't start out that way. Perseus Jackson was born as an average kid to a mortal mother named Sally Jackson.
Dark: Yeah, his life wasn't great. He was dyslexic and had ADHD, had a wimpy best friend, and a douchebag stepfather who was abusive to his mother.
Zap: But Percy's crappy life changed when he discovered that his father, who he had never met, was actually the Greek god of the sea: Poseidon.
Dark: And from that moment on, Percy's life would never be the same.
Zap: After discovering that his very blood will any attract monsters and demons who want his life, Percy was whisked away to Camp Half-Blood. A place where demigod children of the ancient Greek gods can stay and learn how to defend themselves in an uncertain and unforgiving new world.
Dark: Young Percy found himself thrust into his new life when the master bolt of Zeus, the King of Olympus, was stolen.
Zap: If not recovered soon, this would lead to a civil war amongst the gods which not only destroy their world but the world of mankind too.
Dark: So Percy teamed up with his wimpy friend, who turned out to be a half man half goat, and a daughter of Athena named Annabeth Chase to go and recover the master bolt before the worlds of man and god were destroyed. He succeeded and has been kickin' ass ever since. Primarily thanks to his favorite toy.
Zap: Percy's weapon is a single sword by the name of Anaklusmos.
Dark: But you can just call it Riptide. It's a medium length xiphos which can turn from a pen to a sword whenever and will always reappear in Percy's pocket should he lose it. No matter what!
Zap: However, it does have a flaw. Riptide is made of a special material known as Celestial Bronze. While it is capable of harming gods, demigods, Titans, Giants, and monsters, it has absolutely no effect on mortals.
Dark: Good thing he doesn't fight-oh right. He's fighting a mortal right now, isn't he?
Zap: Yeah.
Dark: Bummer. But, luckily for Percy, he also has some cool powers.
Zap: Since his father is the actual god of the sea, this makes Percy a very strong hydrokinetic.
Dark: What?
Zap: He can control water with his mind.
Dark: Oh.
Zap: Percy is capable of controlling water and large tidal waves using only his mind as a weapon. He can also breathe underwater and can heal himself as long as he is close to a considerable amount of it.
Dark: He can fall from immense heights and not get harmed, so long as he lands in the water. He can also manipulate the density of the water to turn it into an, almost, solid shape. He's constructed water he can stand on, water shields, and even giant water fists that followed and imitated the movements of his own.
Zap: He's capable of summoning large storms and hurricanes, which gives him limited electrical and air manipulation. He can also cause earthquakes and even volcanic eruptions by manipulating the water underneath them and can control frozen/icy water around him. Obviously, being a son of the sea god also gives him resistance to fire and heat.
Dark: But one of his greatest feats comes when he and his girlfriend were trekking through the pit of Tartarus. Where he was shown that he can even control poisons by manipulating the water within them.
Zap: While the full extent of this ability is unknown, he was able to control it well enough to defeat the ancient immortal known as Akhlys and was even able to scare Annabeth with this power for fear of it turning him into something he wasn't.
Dark: What wimps. You're gaining a cool new power which can overpower beings who predate the gods and titans themselves! Who cares if it comes with a little bloodlust?
Zap: Percy has proven time and time again to be one of the Earth's strongest defenders. He's beaten dozens, perhaps even hundreds of monsters, demons, half-bloods, gods, giants, and titans, aided in the defeat of the primordial earth goddess Gaia (who was literally the earth itself), proved essential in defeating the titan lord of time Kronos, and even held his own against Ares, the god of war and one of the strongest of the Olympians, when he was only twelve years old.
Dark: Damn! I like this guy.
Zap: But for all of Percy's abilities and skills, he does have one fatal flaw. As stated by the wisdom goddess Athena, Percy is too loyal to his friends and family. He's willing to sacrifice his life and even the entire world to save everyone and this could prove one day to be his downfall.
Dark: But, considering what he can do, I doubt anyone's gonna be taking him down anytime. But his opponent certainly has a good chance.
Percy to Annabeth: We're staying to together. You're not getting away from me. Never again.
[+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+]
Zap: The Avatar, a powerful and legendary being who is destined to master the four elements and bring peace to the world. Every time the Avatar has died, their spirit is reincarnated into a new form in order to ensure the world will always have a defender to keep the peace. The most recent incarnation being a young boy by the name of Aang.
(Aang riding around on a ball air and crashes into a statue)
Dark: We're doomed.
Zap: Aang was born to two air nomads in the year 12 BG. After his identity was confirmed as the Avatar, he was taken away to the Southern Air Temple to be raised and trained. He traveled across the planet with his mentor and friend Monk Gyasto.
Dark: Despite his young age, Aang had proven a prodigy at the art of airbending. By age six, he was better than kids twice his age and had surpassed his own masters by the age of ten.
Zap: However, Aang's childhood would soon come to an abrupt end. You see, the Avatar is usually told of who they truly are at the age of sixteen. Due to the air nomads suspecting that a war was soon coming, however, Aang was told when he was twelve.
Dark: You'd think being told that you're the most recent reincarnation of a nearly divine warrior would be cool, right? Not in Aang's case, because no kid his age wanted to hang out with him and he would be forced to leave behind his mentor and friend, Gyasto, to finish his airbending training elsewhere.
Zap: Afraid and confused, Aang ran away with Appa, a flying sky bison and his lifelong companion. During which they were caught in the middle of a storm and Aang, subconsciously, used his hidden powers to freeze himself and Appa in an iceberg where they would rest for one hundred years.
Dark: Until a hot waterbending chick and her idiot brother freed him from his prison and the Avatar was born again. Unfortunately, after he was frozen, the Fire Nation started a war against the entire world which raged on for the next century. Oops.
Zap: Upon realizing his mistake, Aang dedicated himself to end the one hundred year war and bring peace to the world.
Dark: Which would be easy, if Aang hadn't ran away before he could be taught the other three elements. This kid is not a good Avatar.
Zap: That's only at the start of his career. As he progressed, Aang went from an inexperienced child to a true force to be reckoned with. Aang had spent a year learning the remaining three elements in order to master them all. He's capable of manipulating air, water, earth, and fire at will using his mind as his only weapon.
Dark: Aang's best form of bending is his airbending, which isn't a surprise considering he has been practicing all of his life. He can create tornadoes and currents of air that can lift and knock over ridiculously heavy objects. However, this is a form of bending he mostly uses for defense and evasion.
Zap: The next element he mastered was water. Although he was good at it, his skill lessened as his focus did. Aang quickly proved himself a waterbending prodigy, able to create a large wave on his first try. Water is, however, his least used element as he prefers to use the readily-available elements of air and earth. He was still able to create massive tidal waves, including one strong enough to put Fire Lord Ozai on the defense when the two had their climatic battle.
Dark: Earthbending was, by far, his most difficult element to master. It is stated that the most difficult element for the Avatar to learn was the one that is directly opposite from their true personality. Because Aang's native element was air, this made bending the earth extremely difficult for him to master.
Aang: What if I came at the boulder from a different angle?
Toph: No that's the problem, you've gotta stop thinking like an airbender. There's no different angle, no clever solution, no tricky trick that's gonna move that rock. You've gotta face it head on. And, when I say "head on", I mean like this!
(Toph leaps into the air and crushes a boulder by head-butting it)
Zap: But Aang quickly became adept in earthbending as well. It became his second most used element, due to it's generally availability. He's capable of bending large boulders, sending massive columns of rock flying, and even form a suit of earth armor around himself during combat. He does, however, mainly use earthbending for defense by creating large walls, shelters, and restraints to neutralize his opponents due to his pacifist nature. Toph, his blind friend and earthbending teacher, also taught him an ability known as the seismic sense. It's similar to sonar and allows Aang to detect the exact location and movement of a person or object through their interaction with the ground.
Dark: An element that really gave Aang trouble was firebending. Although it should have been the final element he learned, he had the opportunity to learn it early at the hands of Master Jeong Jeong. His impatience, however, was a problem and it led to him getting Katara hurt.
Zap: After that incident, Aang feared the destructive power of firebending and became hesitant to learn it at all. After accepting his former enemy Zuko as his firebending teacher after an invasion on the Fire Nation failed, he learned the true meaning of firebending from the dragons Ran and Shaw. He was no longer afraid of learning firebending and advanced rather quickly. Although, he was still hesitant to show aggression in his fighting style.
Dark: Aang is capable of shooting powerful waves of flame from his hands and feet and can even fucking breathe fire! The hell?!
Zap: The flames that Aang creates are hot enough to melt through solid stone, which places them at around thirty-seven hundred degrees Fahrenheit. Zuko also taught Aang an advanced and unique form of firebending called lightning redirection.
Dark: As you might guess from the name, it allows Aang to take in bolts of lightning and redirect them back at his attackers. But one of Aang's most skilled bending forms is an ancient style known as energybending.
Zap: After receiving knowledge from a giant lion turtle (don't even ask), Aang gained the ability to actually bend the life energy within a person's body. This gave him the ability to permanently strip someone of their bending abilities or restore a person's bending should it have been taken away by other means.
Dark: But all of that could pale in comparison to Aang's greatest tool: The Avatar State.
Zap: The Avatar State is an extremely dangerous power that is owned by the avatar. While in this form, all of their bending abilities increase far beyond superhuman and into the realm of absurdity. While in this form, Aang's airbending can erode solid stone with a single gust of wind, his waterbending can reach a water source far away and he can raise the waters of an entire ocean, similar to how the moon pulls the tides, his earthbending skills increase as he can crush boulders into pebbles and send them flying at their enemy with deadly accuracy and power and he doesn't even need to be connected to the earth to use it, and his firebending can effortlessly melt through stone and can take down an entire airship with ease, albeit with help from Sozin's comet. This is a phenomenon that drastically increases the power of all firebenders.
Dark: However, it does come with a pretty big weakness. If Aang were to ever die in the Avatar State, it will severe the avatar's spirit from the world and prevent them from reincarnating. Ever again.
Zap: Not to mention that Aang is still young, and doesn't have as much combat experience as one would believe. Although he's learned the four elements, he's still a long way from truly mastering them.
Dark: But, don't let his kind nature and young fool you. Aang is one of most powerful beings on the planet, and he'll give you a reminder if you ever get the stupid idea to piss him off.
Aang to Chief Arnook: I wasn't there when the Fire Nation attacked my people. I'm gonna make a difference this time.
[+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+]
Zap: Alright the combatants are set, let's end this debate once and for all.
Dark: It's time for a death battle!
[+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+]
Aang was flying through the forest on a mission. He had heard some rumors of kids being removed from their homes and trained in a hidden camp and he was going to investigate. Aang flew down and landed on the earth as he continued his trek.
Unknown: Excuse me.
Aang turned round to see a teen with black hair and an orange shirt that read "Camp Half-Blood" standing there.
Aang: Who are you?
Unknown: My name is Percy Jackson and you're trespassing. I'm afraid that I'll have to ask you to leave.
Aang: I can't. I've been hearing rumors of kids being brought to this area and I'm here to ensure their safety.
Percy: They are safe, now you need leave.
Aang: You'll have to understand me doubting your words. I'm not leaving.
The two young warriors stared at one another with an intense look in their eyes. Percy takes out Riptide and uncaps it into a sword.
Percy: I won't ask you again, you need to leave.
Aang stands in a fighting stance.
Aang: I can't do that.
(Fight)
Aang stomps his foot on the ground and summons up two large boulders, which he flings toward Percy. The demigod rolled out of the way of them both before he charged at the Avatar, swinging his sword. Aang managed to dodge each swing before he thrust his hands forward and sent out a column of air which threw Percy into a tree. Aang then shot two streams of fire from his hands, but Percy saw a lake and reacted quickly by telekinetically grabbing some water and flinging it out in defense. The two elements collided and cancelled one another out.
Aang's thoughts: Whoa, so this guy can control the water. That movement isn't like anything I've ever seen so he can't be a waterbender. Still, I'll have to be careful.
Percy's thoughts: This kid is tougher than he appears. Looks like he can control the elements, I'll have to keep my guard up.
Percy used his powers at flung more water at the air nomad, who used his waterbending skills to redirect the attack to the ground. He then did a kick and sent another gust of wind heading straight for the demigod. Percy leaped out of the way, but then saw Aang tossing a large boulder at him. Thinking quickly, Percy summoned more water to himself and hardened it into a shield. Although the shield absorbed most of the damage from the boulder, it still managed to send Percy sprawling across the ground. He stood up, just in time to dodge another blast of fire from the Avatar. Percy then realized that the impact from the boulder had knocked Riptide from his hands. He searched around and found it lodged in the truck of a tree.
Percy: Gotcha!
The demigod raced over, dodging multiple gusts of wind and streams of fire from Aang who wasn't letting up. Percy snatched his sword and flung it at Aang, but it simply passed through him as if he was made of air. Percy then realized that this kid must have been a regular mortal because only they can remained unharmed from Riptide's Celestial Bronze blade.
Aang: What just happened?
Seeing in opportunity from Aang's confused face, Percy summoned up more water and changed its density to make it more solid before flinging it directly into Aang's chest. He then used the water's solid state to create restraints and chained Aang to the ground.
Percy: Surrender. This is over.
Aang: No.
Aang slammed his foot into the ground and used his earthbending to cause the ground Percy was standing on to raise drastically in the air and sent the demigod flying through the air. Percy summoned the water that holding Aang and used it to cushion his fall as descended down to the earth. Having enough of this, Percy shut his eyes and concentrated. Aang looked onward in amazement as the wind around Percy began to pick up and actually swirled around him. The wind began moving faster and actually became visible to the young avatar. Aang's eyes widened as he heard thunder and saw lightning striking and appearing around Percy. His opponent had actually created a miniature tornado around himself! Percy's eyes snapped open and he charged with incredible speed that caught Aang off guard. Because of this, he was unprepared for the demigod fist that shot out and decked him across the face before another one hit him in the stomach. Aang tried to move out of the way but, whatever Percy did, he was faster and more agile than before and he couldn't get out of the way in time. Percy summoned up some water and threw it toward Aang, and sent him into a tree.
Percy: This fight is over. Surrender now!
Completely silent, Aang slowly stood up and faced his opponent. It was Percy's turn to be surprised as Aang opened his eyes to reveal that they were glowing a pure white color. The air around Aang picked up and surrounded him in a bubble of wind. He then opened his mouth and breathed a stream of fire, which wrapped around the bubble he had created. He then called some water and pieces of earth to him and they wrapped around his body. Aang stopped there with glowing eyes and all of the elements simultaneously wrapped around him and he was ready to fight. Percy launched a wave of water, but Aang effortlessly redirected the attack and sent it away. He then sent a massive just of wind which disrupted Percy's personal tornado and sent him flying over twenty feet away. Aang then lifted multiple boulders into the air and crushed them into tiny pebbles. He then sent the pebbles at Percy which such force that they were able to pierce through rocks and trees. Thinking quickly, Percy used the water to give himself a boost and put it up as a shield for any attack that caught him.
Aang: I shall finish this now!
Aang thrust his fist forward and launched a tornado sized torrent of flames in the demigod's direction. When it collided with the ground, it caused a massive explosion which sent Percy flying and nearly incinerated the rocks and trees around it. Percy had cuts and bruises all over his body and hurt for him to move. Before he could try, however, the earth suddenly raised up and wrapped around his arms and legs. Aang then slowly floated to the ground and stared the demigod directly in his eyes.
Aang: You were correct, this fight is over.
With hand movements, Aang summoned up streams of air, water, earth, and fire and lifted them into the air. He then caused the four elemental streams to mix and sent them down, flying at Percy. Percy shut his eyes and concentrated all of the remaining power that he could possibly muster up. Aang was so focused on ending this, that he didn't notice a long stream of water being lifted out of the lake. Or it forming a large spear. Or it heading to him until it was too late. Aang gasped in shock as the solid water spear impaled him through the chest and pierced his heart. His shock caused him to power down from the Avatar State and lose his focus on his attack. The four elemental streams halted and fell to the ground harmlessly. Percy found himself able to easily break free from the stone (since it wasn't being controlled anymore) as Aang's body falls lifelessly to the ground. Percy walks over to Aang's corpse and stares at him with sadness.
Percy: I am truly sorry. May you peace in Elysium.
Without another word, Percy picks up Aang's body and walks to Camp Half-Blood.
(K.O)
Percy gives Aang proper burial, outside of the perimeter of the camp.
Zap: Dark, are you crying?
Dark: No, you are. Shut up!
Zap: Anyway, this was a truly good fight. While Percy and Aang might have seemed evenly matched to begin with, the fight soon turned in the demigod's favor. Because of his ability to control the water, Aang's firebending would have been nearly useless. And, while they can both do it, Percy's hydrokinesis has been shown on a greater scale and is able to be perform with less effort.
Dark: Yeah, not to mention that Percy has way more actual combat experience than Aang does. From the beginning of the first Percy Jackson book to the end of the final Heroes of Olympus book, Percy has nearly five years of experience battling monsters, demons, half-bloods, gods, titans, giants, and even primordials. Worst case scenario for the demigod, that's almost twice the experience the avatar had.
Zap: Even though Riptide would have been useless for offense in this fight, that wouldn't have slowed Percy down for long. Aang's best chance to pull out a victory was the Avatar State and, while it is extremely powerful and dangerous, there's no reason to assume that it's any stronger than most of the main villains that Percy has fought in his demigod career.
Dark: Finally, Percy also has more experience in battling against beings who eclipse him immensely. When he was only twelve years old and had little actual training and fighting skills, Percy was able to hold his own against Ares who is one of the strongest of the gods of Olympus. On top of that, he was able to injure him! And, that injury was still there about two years later!
Zap: Aang has faced off against some truly strong and deadly foes in his career as the Avatar, but Percy has faced nearly impossible and insurmountable odds through nearly half a decade and has always been able to not only survive but to win and kick some ass.
Dark: Looks like Aang was just H2Owned.
Zap: That's not funny.
Dark: YES IT IS!
Zap: The winner is Percy Jackson.
Next time on death battle
A soldier was cautiously walking through an abandoned building. He was African-American with black hair, advanced armor, a helmet, and a high-tech rifle. What he didn't know was that he was being stalked. In the shadows, clinging to the wall, was a strange looking creature. It had a large head, razor sharp fangs and claws, no eyes, and a spiked tail. The creature hissed at the man, revealing a second mouth, before climbing into the vents.
Unknown to either of them, however, they were both being hunted. This figure was standing crouched on a tree branch while a cloaking device was active and disguising itself. It stood and pressed a button on its wrist, which deactivated its cloaking device. It was a tall creature with a smooth grey mask, dreadlocks, and a shoulder mounted plasma cannon. It let out a low growl and unsheathed two blades through each of its wrists before reactivated the cloaking device and leaping to go take out its prey.
