A/N guys sorry I haven't posted in forever, my uncle who was pretty close died and then my apartment burnt down so that delay me a bit. I escaped however and I will rise from the ashes haha literally. So enjoy

The view was both breathtakingly beautiful, and terrifying at the same time. It would be an understatement if you called the place a palace. The platform led via a huge bridge to the fortress made of a dark stone that seemed as though each was infused with the essence of darkness itself. I guess that made sense however because Erebus is the primordial god of darkness. There was several upward spiraling towers all centered around a huge black building in the dead center. The architecture was amazing, I thought to myself, "Annabeth would love this..." Then remembered what she had done to me and I instantly hardened my soul brining it back to one of an Assassin .

I imagined what it would look like from an arial view, and then remembered that I could infect get it from an arial view. My wings slid out of my back, and almost without thinking I propelled upward. Flying had become like a second nature to me. I soared upward and upward ignoring the cries from Kim to come back and finally I had reached a high enough altitude.

The city lay before me, and I felt power I had never felt before. It was amazing and I felt as though I could do anything in the entire world. Then I felt it all come crashing down, literally the ceiling cracked and several giant rocks began to rain down upon the land. I dodged them all with the utmost ease, but then remembered.

"Kim!" I shouted as I plummeted downward at a tremendous speed and I heard a huge boom. I later realized for the second time in my life I had just broken the sound barrier, the first time had been much less fun as Hazel, Frank, and I rode on Arion on our quest to defeat the Giant.

I dodged countless slabs of stone and then with my recently obtained eyesight I saw her. She was looking up hopelessly as she saw a huge boulder the size of a couple football fields raining down to smash her. She opened her mouth to utter her last words, as I swooped in to save her.

I grabbed her by the waist and grabbed her by the waist and flew away as fast as I could. Then I felt a jerk as my pant leg got caught on a jagged jutting piece of rock. Kim flew out of my hands and flew out of the way of the boulder, I however was not.

"Hey at least I'll get to see Samuel." And I passed out.

When I woke up I was in the place in space where time stood still then I saw Chaos, who was looking slightly disappointed.

"Percy, Percy, Percy." Chaos started reminding me in a way of my mother. "All the powers that have been bestowed upon you and you simply accept your fate from a mere boulder, I'm disappointed in you."

"Yes Chaos..." I said in a self-disapproving tone.

"Honestly all you have to do is think the boulder gone and it shall be done, just focus. Now go, be gone..." And with that the dream ended.

Back to the matter at hand, I focused on the boulder and did exactly what Chaos had told me. And with a blink of an eye, it was gone.
"Percy!" Kim shouted as she rushed over to my side. She slapped me in my face as soon as she saw that I was fine. "You idiot, you have the balance of the world in your hands and yet you nearly throw that away to save me."

I nearly said, "Hey what can I say that's the type of guy I am." Then I remembered that I had ended "that guy" and I was now a merciless killer. So instead I nearly stood up, brushed myself off and flew away to the fortress. I looked back once and u saw her staring off after me with a look of complete confusion on her face.

Then turned ahead and I slowly circled until I glided down to the ground. I was surprised to see people bustling around the streets, but then as I looked at them closely I realized that they were merely shades. And even the majority were warriors who bore weapons, which marked the as soldiers, and the crest in the left top corner of the chest, two greek symbols for C intertwined and wrapped around by a golden rope, marked them as members of Chaos' army.

A more solid figured strode toward me through the crowd and they parted and bowed as he walked by. I heard the faint mumblings of "hello Lord Erebus" and "Sorry sir, make way".

I started to pick out details from his figure. He was tall, at least 6 foot 7, he had darker skin, and his faces emotions were currently jumbled shifting from one to the other. His cloak was torn and black, and it blew in a non-existent wind.

"Omega?" Erebus questionably asked as he neared close enough to talk. And though he asked it as though it was a question, I was confident that he knew the answer.

"Yes my Lord." Then I went to bow down on one knee. He caught me before I did so however and straightened me shaking his head. "I am neither your Lord nor do you have the need to bow down to me, I am simply another worker of the great king Chaos, and if possible your friend. I hear you were able to make one out of Tartarus, so I have confidence that we can become friends as well." Erebus corrected me.

"Yes my lo... Erebus." I said and he nodded his head in consent.

"Good now that's a start." Then as if noticing it for the first time he asked looking around, "Where's Kim?"

"She's..." And while turning around I saw her come into view," right there." I finished.

She stormed up to where we were standing and gave me a withering look, and then stormed past us walking up to the huge center building. Erebus saw the exchange and looked at me quizzically. I simply shrugged at him and then after Kim disappeared from vision, I turned to him and asked, "So am I going to get a tour of this place."

Erebus simply looked at me and snickered with an evil glint in his eyes. "No, Chaos was pretty specific, training starts now."
