Ocean and Blaze vs ?????

Percy blinked profusely. He is in a place where, the best way to describe it is in space, the stars around him with no ground to step on being the indicator. Still, why would he be sent here, instead of any world?

He tried to walk, discovering he could do it. Considering he's in space, that is a valid question. He then tried to jump, learning that he won't fall back. So, he's definitely in space. Using CE to move, he quickly realises that this space is rich in CE.

He probably could absorb it easily, but refrained to do so. Wait until he guessed where he is, then do that. He was about to fly to random places when his eyes fell on brown hair. He looked at the person the hair belong to and couldn't help but gasped.

"Ari?"

Flashback

Percy looked at the city. He's currently in Seattle, trying to find a place to create a safe house for the demigods living there. He extended his CE, trying to find any monsters and exterminate them. In the process, he couldn't help but notice a powerful CE signature.

Deciding to abandon his main goal, for now, he dashed towards the signature, focusing on it and heading like a ballistic missile. By the time he got there, he found a girl his age lying on the ground. He got closer and couldn't help but gasp.

The girl's arms are wounded, likely from monsters. He carried the girl bridal style before vapour travelling to his camp. He carefully placed the girl in a healing pool he created, heating it up to a more bearable temperature.

He watched silently as the girl's wounds slowly disappeared, the healing done quickly enough. As the wounds closed, he lifted the girl and fed her ambrosia, to cure any possible illness she got. After all, he couldn't really tell how long she'd been there.

As the night is at its peak, the girl's eyes open. Sensing her awakening, Percy rushed towards her. Surprised by his sudden appearance, the girl jumped and winced, as the action caused her some pain.

She looked at her arm and her eyes widened in shock. Percy couldn't help but feel sorry for her, at his age and forced to be on her own. She's a demigod, no doubt about it, but whose, that's the question.

She looked at Percy before saying, "Thank you for healing me. My name is Ariana Blaze." Percy looked at her closely and couldn't help to compare her to one Olympian he had met. After all, with brown hair and fire-red eyes, only one person, or goddess could fit the scope.

"My name is Percy Jackson, though I never expect to see a daughter Hestia here," his words caused the red orbs to move, panicking by the fact he seemed to know her godly parent.

He placed a hand on her shoulder. "Easy, I won't tell anyone but you have to tell me how someone could get Aunt Hestia to break her oath," his question caused Ariana to look at him in surprise.

He answer it by creating a trident on his head, "Poseidon!" she shouted, causing Percy to close her mouth, "Not so loud!" he whispered-shouted.

After they calmed down, Percy looked at her, seemingly asking a question, causing Ariana to tell her tale, how Hestia had met with a mortal, both kind and handsome, when she appeared in the form of a child, how her father helped her, not even knowing who she is, how her mother watched her father for years before coming to visit him once more, asking him to be his wife, how then her parent got married.

By the time she regaled her tale of how Hestia gave birth to her in a mortal hospital and her father taking her to Alaska for her safety, Percy couldn't help but asked one question he knew was insensitive.

"Where is your father?" he watched as the girl's red eyes slowly filled with tears. Quickly, he hugged her, letting Ariana cry on his shoulder.

"He died, killed by monsters!" she wailed, drenching his shirt with her tears, but with her state, Percy couldn't help but let her pour her emotion out, rubbing her back as she cried some more.

She cried some more before she laid her head on his shoulder, the crying finally stopped. Percy checked her, realising soon enough she had cried herself to sleep. Placing her next to him, he laid down beside her, stroking her head before falling to slumber.

Flashback ended

After their first meeting, Percy had taught her CE, how to fight, and many other surviving skills and she had been a constant companion for nearly a year, before they go on their separate way, his want to teach the demigods forcing them to split, as the news of a child of Hestia might cause some unwanted attention.

Percy hadn't told her of his future fate, so how did she get here? Focusing on his power, Percy flew towards the girl.

"Ari!" he shouted causing her to turn her head and eyes widened, fiery red orbs meeting sea green.

"Percy!" she yelled back, using her power, one she trained when it was realised she can learn and use it, jumped and hugged him.

"What are you doing here?" he asked, clearly surprised by her appearance… wherever they are.

"The same thing for you mister, why are you here?" she scolded him, fiery red orbs looking at him questioningly.

Percy sighed, a sign Ariana took that whatever Percy did, she wouldn't like at all, "Lets trade story then,"

As Percy created a water couch for them, they each share their tale, Ariana arriving here through a sudden appearance of a portal while she was in Japan, while Percy voluntarily entered his own.

By the time Percy finished his tale, Ari glared at him, clearly angered by something. "You telling me, you won't tell me that you going to leave," Percy reluctantly nodded. Ariana answered it by smacking his chest, "You jerk! Why won't you tell me?! Do I not need to know my only friend suddenly disappearing?" She cried out, hitting him some more.

Even though she was yelling at him, Percy could tell the girl is scared. Catching her fist, he moved his hand to her cheek, lifting her head so they could see eye to eye. He sees tears pooling once more in the red orbs, and to the shock and reluctance of the daughter of Hestia, he hugged her.

"I'm sorry for not telling you. It just, don't know what you will do if you know, probably trying to fight the Fates so I could stay," the girl grumbled but remained in his embrace.

After a while, he let go. Ariana looked at his face with a steely glare. "Don't hide things like that, or else," she warned before walking away, Percy following her.

They had been walking for several hours, or so they think. They can't really tell the time in this place or where they are going. Something they've both discussed for some time and still didn't find the answers to.

"Seriously, what are the Fates thinking? They should just send us to the world, not to this dimension," Percy complained, Ariana just listened, after all, she already complained a few minutes ago. They had been doing this for half an hour, or so they estimate. Still hard to guess the time in this place.

"Let's tried to find any possible pat-" whatever Percy was going to say stuck in his throat, his senses going haywire as he detected a very powerful presence.

Ariana reacted quickly, grabbing his arm and teleporting them away, her mastery of space useful for the purpose of chasing and running away.

"Whose there?!" Percy asked loudly, before his eyes fell on a single person, or to be accurate, a single being.

He, the being that looked 'male', is watching them, his hair black before turning to white to grey, a constant shift of the three colours. He has the shape of a regular person, unassuming if you ever pass him by, the type that can be lost in the crowd if you don't try to find him.

However, that's what their eyes could see. Both of them could tell, the being is more powerful than the form it took. They grabbed their weapon, not unsheathing them yet for the option of a peaceful talk still on the table.

The being clearly didn't feel threatened by them, judging by how he, let's go with he, didn't react as they grabbed their weapon. They don't think he is foolish, which means the being is powerful and didn't see them as a threat.

"To think I sense something in this space I created, and to see mortals here, what a surprise," he said, a smile on his face.

"Mr, what should we call you?" Ariana, proper as always, asked politely while looking for any sign of danger.

"Hmmm, I won't tell you my name or let you out just yet. I will only do that if you do one thing," he said.

Ariana and Percy looked at each other, silently speaking before Ari asked him, "Do what exactly?"

The being answered with a wider smile, "Beat me of course,"

Both of them had horrified looks on their face. Fighting a being that is more powerful than they are, while in his domain, that's the recipe for utter defeat.

"Of course, I'm not going to fight back, I'm not even going to do any counterattack. You can do whatever you want," listening to such a term, both of them began to sink deeper into their fear. To make such a term, the being is more powerful than they imagined.

They looked at each other again, another silent speech going between them. Ariana began to open her mouth, "No, I'm not going to be handicapping myself to the level of a god," she closed her mouth immediately.

Percy sighed, "Looks like we going to have to do this," he said, before taking both Riptide and Wave Breaker out, not going all out is foolishness. Ariana did the same thing, her hands on Ember and Ignite, her daggers.

"Formation A," Ariana said, the son of Poseidon nodding at her before Ariana took her place behind Percy as he dashed towards the being, performing multiple slashes and stabs at once. The being blocked all of it easily enough, but in doing so, he leave himself open, one Ariana took.

Suddenly, the being bend backwards, avoiding a stab coming from Ariana, who appeared and disappeared. She rose from the shadow behind Percy. "This won't be easy," she said, something Percy agreed with.

"Then, let's do our best," he replied, before unleashing Elemental Slash Barrage, forcing the being to avoid multiple barrages, each made of CE and different elements.

As the being avoided it, Ariana clapped her hand, Spatial Crush on the way. A solidified space, similar to a valley surrounded by cliffs, except the cliff wanted to smash you. The being stretched his arms, before clenching his hands, the solid space broken into pieces from the action.

Percy looked at the being with calm calculation, all of this is expected by him and Ari, the being is at a level above the gods, maybe even above the primordial. If they can't beat him with powerful attacks, multiple of those might do the trick. Might, as in the unsure if it will work or not.

He looked at Ari, remembering the training they'd undergone, especially one where they realise her true potential. Her ability to control the Rule.

Flashback

Percy walked, Ari behind him. They are in Vegas, tracking down some monsters, or more like Ari tracking the monsters while he watched over the girl, evaluating her action. It could serve as training when he taught the demigods of Camp Half-Blood. Shame he can't do that to the Roman camp, but what else can he do?

His musing was stopped when Ari raised her hand, stopping him. "What did you sense?" Ari wouldn't do such action without a good reason. She is the smart one in their duo, the strategic thinker and plan maker.

"I sense, something weird. It's not a monster, but it affects me," she confessed. Seeing her like this, Percy decided to extend his senses, before he narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, there is something, just not sure what it is," he replied, his eyes focused as he sees the place where the disturbance coming from. Lotus Hotel and Casino.

"We should avoid this place, something feels off," he said, his hand clasping to the daughter of Hestia.

"No," the answer caused Percy to look at the girl, wondering why she refusing to go away from the place, "It just, I feel like being in there might give us an opportunity," she gave her reason, but seeing his face, she lowered her head down, "Maybe we should le-"

"If you say so, let's go inside," his reply caused Ari to look at him in surprise. "One thing I learn from travelling, instincts are often correct. Besides, I feel the same way just now," he confessed. Seeing this, they entered the place, but not before placing several enhancements and CE on their heads. Precaution and all.

When they enter it, Ari whispered, "something wrong with this place, but it might teach us something." He couldn't help but agree. When he returned to Carlsbad Cavern, the rocks of the place contain records and will of their own, helping him to hone his geokinesis better.

He and Ari entered the place before his senses told him of the presence of demigods. He signalled his companion before they headed towards the demigods. They soon spied two demigods, a boy and a girl, both being older than them.

Percy clad himself with the Mist before he grabbed Ari's hand and led her to the two.

"Hello, my sister and I are new here. Would you mind telling us where the way to the counter is, we kind of lose," Ari nodded, playing along with his excuses.

"Oh, it's just around the corner, walked to the front and you can't miss it," the girl, the older sister likely, answered.

"Oh, I might miss it," he tried to sound apologetic about it, one Ari took.

"I told you we should check better," the girl could sound really convincing when she wanted to.

"Oh, and can you tell me the date, I had to meet with our parents at the front on the 8th of October, and I get the date mix up," he tried again, his suspicion of the place started to form.

"8th October, it August I'm afraid, 15th August 1943," the girl replied shocked them, but they were able to school their feature.

"Oh, I might get the date wrong. I should try to contact them, thanks for the answer, I'm Percy Jackson and this is my sister, step-sister to be exact, Ariana Blaze," Ari nodded.

"Oh, I see, my name is Bianca di Angelo and this is my younger brother, Nico. If you stay we might meet each other again so nice to meet you," Bianca replied politely.

Percy waited until they leave before he looked at Ari with a hint of seriousness, "We need to leave, we are inside a place where time moved slower than the outside.

However, the girl seemed to ignore him, he was about to shock her awake when he sees that she seemed to be in some kind of trance, one he knew off. After all, he was in a similar state when he visited Carlsbad.

"Percy," good, she finally awake, "I think I know what we could learn, the ability to control time," never mind, she still dreaming. "Don't you see, by sensing the energy here, we could learn the ways to control time, making it go faster or slower," the excitement remains.

Percy was about to stop her from doing such foolish thing when he thought about it some more, didn't he learn from Carlsbad, why the same couldn't happen here. Kicking that thought, he looked at the girl, who looked at him expectantly. He sigh and nodded.

And so began their lesson to manipulate time.

Flashback ended

In a similar fashion to him, Ari learns to control 7 aspects, Time, Space, Gravity, Light, Life, Yin-Yang, and Heat. He guided her through some, though he usually let her do her own thing. They even learn though Fire released Heat, it's not the same as Heat, as he could create Fire without Heat and Ari did the same, vice-versa of course.

He looked at her, their plans already being discussed telepathically. With that, Percy began to utter his mantra

Earth are formed from energy, floating in the great unknown

From the energy, the first of dirt are formed

Slowly turning from pebble to rock to boulder to mountain

Now it's a continent, coming from the sky to hit the ground below

Meteoric Impact

From the CE, a huge meteor, the size of Mount Everest, appeared on top of the being. Realising the danger he was in, he was about to flee when he felt something stopping him.

"Heh, do you think we let you escape that easily?" Ariana mocked before she chant

Time is like a stream

Always flowing, always moving forward

But it can be stop

Immobilizing every being from being unable to move

Chronostasis: Chain of Time

A couple of chains appeared, restraining the being. The being tried to fight back but before he could do that, he felt a rule, one even he cannot break as he ordained it so it cannot be used without restriction. Time, the ability to control time.

'So they can do such a thing,' he thought to himself.

Looking upward, seeing the meteor falling, he decided he didn't like being crushed, … so he roared.

"ROOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"

The power of the roar shattered the chain, turning it into slowly disintegrating pieces, while the meteor crumbled into dust. For the creator of the two things, they got blown away like a bunch of leaves.

"How on earth are we not hurt?" Percy asked, clearly feeling the power behind the simple yet powerful roar.

"Because he's focusing on the meteor and chain, and he did say he won't attack us," Ari answered, though she looked at the being warily.

"Looks like we had to step up our game,"

"Stallion Tsunami,"

"Great Space Compress,"

"Forest of Slaughter,"

"Darkness Eternal,"

"Inferno Bombardment,"

"Life Absorption,"

"Hurricane Slashes,"

"Yin and Yang Unity,"

"Lightning God Spear,"

"Gravity Crush,"

"Frozen Charge,"

"Absolute Zero Heat,"

A blur of blue and red rapidly dashed back and forth a white figure, who remained still and unmoving. Along the way, elemental power and rules manipulation were unleashed repeatedly, each strong enough to destroy the entire USA. Still, it was not enough as the white figure destroyed all of it with ease.

The blue and red figure stopped, a few hundred feet away from the white figure, both stoppings showing Percy and Ariana, both panting heavily. It was to be expected, they had released 50 techniques, each equal to a strike from a god, at least, to no avail.

"None of our techniques come close to scratching him," Ariana uttered, exhaustion started to creep in.

Percy nodded, both of them had done their best and still, they didn't come close to hurting the being.

"We need a new plan," she said, already out of ideas as the being shrugged off their attack like an adult feeling the effect of a baby punch.

They think hard for several minutes before Ariana let out a sigh, "Percy, we have to use 'that'," she said resolutely.

Hearing that, Percy was about to object but seeing the look on her face, he sighed, "Alright," he agreed, "but, we both do it to each other," he gave his condition.

Knowing it was no time to argue, less they stuck here forever, Ariana grabbed Percy's hand, both clasping each other hand before they stretched their arms, a clock symbol appearing on their hands and around it.

"Time: Accelerate," they uttered, feeling time advance on them, their bodies starting to grow. In a minute, they turned from child to teenager, the next, to an adult. They release their hands, both looking at each other, both in their twenties.

Percy and Ariana stared at each other and blushed before looking away, both having the same thought, "Perse/Ari looked so handsome/beautiful in the future,"

They both shook their heads. Now is not the time to be stunned by each other growth. Now is the time to fight the powerful being in front of them.

They put the palm of their hands together, gathering CE and their own energy. And then, they chant their mantra.

(Percy)

Elements formed my body

Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Nature, Ice

Converge together to create a new form

From this a new god shall appear

Divine Form: God of Element

(Ariana)

Rules shaped my body

Time, Space, Gravity, Light, Life, Yin-Yang, Heat

Unite to create a new form

From this a new goddess shall appear

Divine Form: Goddess of Rule

The being closed his eyes, opening and whistling loudly. "Wow, that is powerful,"

Both of them, in adulthood, looking unlike any mortal.

Percy still has his hair in its style, unkempt like being blown by the sea breeze, but everything else changed. His skin is the colour of the nebula, mostly in the 7 colours of the major elements. He wore full armour, the armour's colour the same as his skin, though, a very different sheen on them. His eyes are the 7 colours of the element, constantly changing and rotating around each other. In his hand, a sword unlike a xiphos is being held, the sword changing colour similar to his eyes.

Ariana's hair becomes longer, reaching her thigh, the hair and skin are white in colour, radiant to the point it nearly hard to look at her directly. Her clothes and armour are different types of white, having a different sheen than the others. Her eyes are a constant shift of white and black. In her hand, a dagger, the colour of starlight, glow.

Percy attacked first, uttering his technique quickly. "7 Elemental Fusion: Elemental Spear," he threw the spear at the being, the being created a shield but to his surprise, a crack formed from the point of impact.

Before he could react, Percy attacked once more, swinging his new blade with his skill as a swordmaster. Every attack is precise and deadly, forcing the being to be on the defensive and create a new barrier to catch his breath.

But, Percy won't let him have his way. He clenched his fist, pillars made out of the seven elements appeared near the being. "Pillar of Element: Impact," the pillars attacked the being forcing him on the defensive even more.

But focusing on Percy is a mistake he made twice, except, both are now stronger and will make him pay for the negligence. "Seal of Rules," Ariana uttered, nails containing the powers of the seven rules piercing the powerful being.

The being, unable to even scream as one nail hit its throat. Seeing his chance, Percy added more to his suffering. "Pillar of Element: Suppress," the pillars let out a powerful pressure, the pressure envelope the being, making him unable to move.

Ariana decided to make sure the being was suppressed even more, "Chain of Rules," the chains bind the being, his limbs restrained by the Chain of Rules, unable to move, or so they hope.

As they watched the being struggle, they give each other a high five. "Let's tried to get the guy a way out of here," Percy suggested. As they make their way to the being, they stopped.

To their horror, their body, more specifically, the energy inside started to erupt. "Not now!" they both screamed. As they watched their skin being punctured from the inside, a hand landed on their shoulder.

To their surprise, the energy started to stabilize. "Who?" they asked as they turned. To their shock, the being had escaped and is now behind them. Before they could do anything, they felt pressure around them, restraining them in a similar way they did to the being.

As they are lifted from the dimension equivalent of ground, they feel power enter them, slowly reversing the changes they make upon themselves. They felt they becoming younger, the age before they accelerate their ages.

As they finally turn back to 9 years old age, they returned back to their defensive position, unsure of the being intention. The being, looking unperturbed by the action, placed a hand on their heads.

Before they could react, tears started to form in their eyes. "Why? Why do I feel like I'm at home?" Percy questioned, the tears not stopping. Ariana, her hand clutching Percy's shirt, nodded in agreement.

"That is simple," the two children looked at the being in question, tears stopped flowing but still remained in their eyes. "Because I am the Origin, the being who created Chaos, Order, Void, Abyss, Beginning, End, Law, Domain, Divine, Destiny, Heaven and Hell, the grandfather to the Ancient, though you may know them in your world as Primordial. And your few times great grandfather."

The two gawked at the being's admission, surprised by the fact the being is their ancestor. But, it would answer why they felt safe and happy in his arm. Still, they could mess with him since he messed with them.

"Ok, ancestor," their word hit the being like a truck, from the way he holds his chest.

"Don't call me ancestor, call me great grandfather," the being suggested.

"But our great grandfather is Ouranus," Ariana replied.

"Then, great-great-grandfather then," not planning to give up, he continued.

"But that's Chaos," Percy pointed out.

Gripping his hair, he goes for the final option, "Then just great-great-great-grandfather."

"But that's too long," the answer from the two caused the being to lower his head in defeat. Before an idea come to his mind.

"Then just use great grandpa followed by my name," no way they could mess this up.

"Ok, great grandpa followed by my name," never mind.

"Alright, you sho- you just messing with me," the being said blankly. He was answered by the adorable giggle of his descendant.

"To be defeated by my own descendant," while he sound anguished, the two could see the smile forming on his face.

"But seriously, you can call use my name after great grandfather," the two looked at him weirdly.

"But what's your name?" the question made the being open his mouth before closing it again. He never did tell the children his name.

"My name is Helix, but you can call me great grandfather Helix." The two looked at each other before saying, "Ok great grandpa Helix," Helix gripped his chest, the cuteness is just too much.

"Great-grandpa," as he recovers from the cuteness attack, a voice shook him out of it, "Where are we?" well, that's a good question.

"We are at a space I created, though your appearance is a surprise but not unexpected. After all, you have something in you that makes you come here," Helix answered with a smile.

"What?" of course the two were still confused.

"I'm going to explain to you when you are older if you are not already so mature. Seeing how smart and powerful you are, explaining it early wouldn't really hurt," he said, before lifting the two children and starting to fly.

"First, let us fly around shall we, I'm going to show you the beauty of my creation, one created by Origin Helix,"

As he said that, he moved to carry fast enough to be entertaining, but slow enough they can still see without any problem.

Whatever secret Helix had can wait. Now, they are going to enjoy sightseeing and being treated like a child, one they never experienced before.
