The exiles return

Chapter 6: attack and new arrivals

Percy POV

It had been about 2 weeks since I had gotten my own command after defeating eragon and the other generals and Artemis and I had gotten very close over the time we had been here. We were in the middle of teaching the basics to a few new recruits that had never been actually taught on how to use the weapons when there was an earth shattering roar and the screaming of terrified soldiers. I looked over and saw the enemy I had hoped would never awaken again. Typhon was free and with him were kampè and python.

"Artemis get everyone out warn eragon not to engage the enemy take shruikan go now I'll hold them off."

But before I could leave she grabbed my hand and turned me back around to face her and she was terrified whether it was for me or the others I wasn't sure though.

"You can't fight them alone you'll be killed don't go come with us please." she pleaded almost begging.

I won't die just do what I've asked please I don't want you to be hurt now go." I said stubbornly and before I could run off again she kissed me full on the mouth and I melted in the kiss I pulled her closer deepening it and she wrapped her arms around my neck. We both poured all of our feelings into the kiss, passion, love, and even terror for the other. When we separated she nodded knowing she couldnt change my mind and hopped on shruikan.

"Go shruikan war eragon and Saphira before its to late protect Artemis." I ordered and he took off without hesitation. I teleported behind kampè and killed her then I summoned a spear with aincient pit scorpion venom saturating the spear tip and threw it at python killing him instantly and then I turned to face typhon and unleashed more power than I had ever used sending him back to the abyss before falling into darkness.

Several minutes later

I awoke to a man appeared to be in his mid to late 30's before grinning and helping me up.

"A-Apollo?" I asked confused.

"No I am Helios primordial of the sun and you are now in the faded realm this is where gods go when they are unconscious it is in between the paradise that all faded gods and goddesses go to and the world that you come from also those who have not chosen there successor are sent here until their successor is chosen and their power passed on." he replied.

"Oh." I said as I took in my surroundings. There were empty streets and the buildings were in disrepair and crumbling the only building that was till in on price was what appeared to be a throne room the one on Olympus if my memory was correct.

"Umm did I fade then if I'm here?"

"No you did not you are not even truly here your body is still in Alagaësia you mind however is here. Your grandfather order called you here he is the father of chaos and you're his successor now please come with me I will take you to him so that I can get out of here for good he is the last that is here still and I get to leave forever once this place clears out and Kronos gets to take people places from now on so lets hurry please." he replied and began to lead me through the streets to the throne room. When I entered there was only a single throne within rather than the twelve that I had become so used to see lining the room. The throne was larger than the throne that Zeus 9himself sat in and on the throne 9was pictures of the peaceful times in the world. I walked to the center of the room an Bowed earning a light chuckle from the man.

"Rise Perseus Jackson"

He said in his deep powerful voice that was almost comforting rather than harsh or just had a normal tone. I rose to my full height looking the man in the eyes and saw a swirling inferno of pure white fire that had soft glow to it unlike Kronos it resembled the way that Hestias eyes seemed to warm you from the inside out.

"At last the mighty Perseus Jackson. Tell me do you know who I am child and I you do how long have you known about me?"

"Well I know that you are order the father of Chaos and my great grandfather but I've only known of you since I woke up here." I said answering his questions. He smiled sadly as if he'd known that was the case.

"Alas most do not remember me not even the primordials themselves did only chaos did and over time she too forgot her roots. Now I have been waiting for countless millennia for the one that would inherit my power and allow me to go to the paradise of the gods. An finally I have found him you are my only family that knows of me and you are the only one that I have deemed worthy enough to use my power for the good of the universe. He stop and shrunk to my size and placed a hand to my forehead and Ina flash he was gone and I could feel his power and his memories with in my mind I used my new powers and returned to my body finding myself in the infirmary tent and there was shouting outside and I knew there was a battle raging so I willed myself to be in a suit of black armor and the helm of darkness sat upon my head then I called to shruikan and he came to get me. As soon as I was ready he took off and I flew out to meet the enemy. Eragon was about to be defeated his sword had been taken by murtagh and eragon couldn't move so I decided to alert them to my presence I jumped to shruikans tail and he shot me towards them and I struck the ground with a terrific explosion and I used my power to have fire and steam surround me and a crater formed around me as the steam cleared murtagh looked at me in wonder while eragon simply nodded his thanks.

"Murtagh leave now before i am forced to destroy you and your army I am more powerful than you can ever hope to know now go this is your only warning." I told him drawing my sword and letting the lightning form the master bolt flicker down its length when he began to show signs of defiance I allowed water to also flow down the blade and activated the power of the helm of darkness and he began to waver while eragon looked like he was about to piss himself.

"Very well I will leave this time but I will return this isn't over." he declared before leaving on thorn I turned to eragon and Saphira and freed them from the spell and went to find Artemis. After an hour of searching I returned to the tent we shared and found her laying ther crying so I removed my armor and the helm and placed it noisily next to my bed getting her attention an she went to roundhouse me in the face not knowing who I was so I dodged saying

"Wait no need to kick me for going to see my grandfather is there?" I said and she crushed me in a hug and said

"You are going to tell me why you did that and what happened to you this instant. Now come on." then she dragged me out of the tent by my hand and we walked around me telling her everything that had happened and explained how order was her great great grandfather but just my grandfather and how I got my powers and what my powers were she leaned in to kiss me and when there was a flash of light our lips met and the hunters, Thalia, Nico, Connor, Travis, Luke, Beckendorf, jake mason, Matthew, colt, Randy, Kyle, Klyde, micheal yew, Colin, Annabeth, josh and Jeremiah appeared.
