3rd Pov (The morning after the encounter with Apollo)

The morning after the encounter with Apollo, Percy decided to go and visit her mom and tell her all that has happened during the last four months. Percy was shocked when she first saw Apollo crying alone on the benches of central park, she assumed that the gods don't usually express their grief or pain, they hide it behind blanket of lust and indifference. The amount of pain in his eye broke Percy's heart to see, because Apollo was usually one of the few light hearted Olympians, his sister is a bit to self absorbed for Percy's liking, still she deserves respect for her deeds. Percy noticed that she was at the front door of her mother's apartment and she decided it would be best if she just buried her thoughts of a crying Apollo for a while and she proceeded to knock on her door.

"come in" said voice and Percy decided to enter and she saw her mother awake with a scared look on her face. "Mom what happened?" she asked, her look merely had a blank expression for a while before saying "Artemis was here" "What, why" she asked bewilderedly, "she was tasked by Zeus to find you" Percy mere laughed and told her mom not to worry about that now. "So, mom how have you and Paul been" she asked. "Paul and I are well" she answered. There was something her mother was keeping from her and she knew she would have to ask. "Mom, what are you hiding?" she asked looking intently at her mother who currently had an amused look on her face. "Paul and I are expecting" Sally said timidly.

At this moment Percy's eyes were bugged out of her sockets in shock surprise. "Does Paul know". Sally smiled and shook her heard and she saw Percy smiling with tears in her eyes and started jumping up and down in elation shouting "I'm going to be a big sister" over and over. Sally was doing the same thing until realization dawned on her that the child will be mortal and Percy will not be able to interfere. Percy noticing her mother's sudden change and said to her "I'm not bound to that law, just I can't directly interfere with quests, which is reasonable". Sally had noticeably happy expression now etched on her face.

Percy and Sally spent the morning talking about the baby and wondering how Paul and Percy thought it would be extremely funny to see his face than and noted that Paul might actually shed tear of pure joy and he deserves to be happy along with her mother who had been through so much because of the world of the gods she was trust into when she met her father. "Mom I must go now, I'll visit soon" she said hugging her mom goodbye and she signalled that she will be flashing out and Sally nodded in acknowledgment and than flashed herself to her throne in Atlantis and sat on it. Percy was so absorbed in her own personal thoughts that she did not notice that her father was now sitting on his throne. "Hello baby girl" said Poseidon with an amused look on his face. "Hi, Daddy" Percy said absentmindedly, before she realised what she said and had a horrified and embarrassed look on her face and looked over to see that her father's smile was broader that it had been before she started talking. "Percy, what does your true godly form look like, because I haven't seen it once?" he asked. "I honestly have no idea", "how don't you know?" Poseidon asked incredulously, "I have never assumed my true form" she said shyly. Poseidon just laughed and grabbed her shoulder and flashed them both to the training arena. "Don't worry assuming your true form will come naturally as it is your natural form" he said looking at his daughter and said "Let go of this form" and her what he told her revealing that was 500ft tall and radiating pure power and Percy followed his example and did the same and released herself from the mortal form she worn and when the transformation ended she was also 500ft tall.

Poseidon was utterly shocked that Percy's godly form was breathtakingly beautiful, she wore a Greek chiton, with breast plate that hugged her delicate figure to perfection and had her braided, and her symbol of power in hand. "The glow is permanent in this form" he said and Percy just smiled. "Dad, I need to claim my domain of the heavens, I can feel it calling to me, what I should do?" she asked wearily.

"Claim it" he said simply stated, "As a primordial you are your domains not a part of them and the stronger you are the stronger your domains will be" he continued. "Oh" she said. "Dad I need to do something to strengthen my domains", "what, might that mission be?" "I, have to go to the garden of hesperides" she said earning a shocked look from her father, "don't worry dad I wish to remove it and Ladon from the presence of Othrys, there is no reason why an animal of the sky should be on Othrys and not on Olysia" she said with such confidence and authority that it surprised her father and Poseidon after a few seconds, Poseidon nodded in agreement. "I agree with you, but I want you to go with Triton" he said. Percy just shrugged in confirmation.

After being taught how assume her true form, she and her father flashed back to the throne where they will inform her mother and brother of the plan they came up with. When they arrived back to the throne room they saw Amphritrite and Triton sitting on their thrones looking bored. "Hello mother and Hello Tri" she said and they both smiled and nodded. "I just want to inform you that I want to claim my domain of the heavens, and I have decided, that the garden of Hesperides should be moved away from the entranceway of Othrys and I would have a word with Ladon, to offer him a new job. "If you are going to the garden, than so am I, little sis" said Triton fiercely, to which Percy and Poseidon just laughed leaving a confused Triton and Amphitrite, "I was going, to ask you to come with me in the first place" Percy explained with a grin. Amphitrite just smiled and asked Triton to protect his sister.

"I guess that's settled, we leave in immediately and I would like to give Bestow Mother and Triton with domains over the heavens" she said and than started chanting in Olysian language of the heaven and said, "I Persephone daughter of Poseidon, selene Jackson and Amphitrite, hereby proclaim you Triton god of the rain and clouds, I also proclaim Amphitrite daughter ou Nereus and Doris, goddess of the upper heavens and winds" and when she was done they were both engulfed in a blinding light for a few minutes and when it subsided they both radiated close to that of the big three, but their appearances remained the same just more regal. They both hugged and kissed Percy on the cheek saying thank you, Percy just smiled at them. "Tri before we leave I must revert back to my former appearance" said Percy and Triton grinned and said "sure thing sis". That was all Percy needed and changed back into her former form and signalled to Triton and her parents that it is time to go. Triton went over to Percy and flashed both of them to the outskirts of Mount Tamalpais and they noticed that it is exactly sundown and started sprinting towards the entrance. The whole thing took only five minute because they were both using some of their godly speed to arrive faster and just before they arrive in the garden they slowed down to a demigod pace.

When they arrive at in the garden that was just as beautiful as it looked a few years ago, but all the beauty it had was washed out, the memory of the death of Zoe Nighshade. "Why have thee come here demigods?" said voices of the Hesperides in unison.

"We wish to converse with the king of dragons ladon" replied Percy. "Lies thee seek to take the Apples for thy selves" interjected one, causing Triton's eyes to flash with anger and all Percy did was put a hand on his shoulder to calm him down again. "if was interested in the apples why would I waste time mincing words with you four?" she asked. They all sighed sensing the truth in her words, as Percy was about to go to Ladon they, one of them said "We apologise for our action years ago, we were blinded by our anger for so long, that we failed to forgive a sister we truly loved, now only we live regret for our actions." She said with tears flowing down her cheeks and before leaving Percy said "do not despair for hope is not lost, forgiveness can be earned if you truly seek its embrace and I would also like to have a chat with you after we talk with Ladon" as she walked away.

"Ladon", Percy called and the great dragon awoke from its slumber ready to attack whoever wishes to claim the apples. "Relax dragon king we simply wish to parley" Percy said in Olysian as Triton watched in awe of his sister's commanding tone and level of authority, yet her tone was still respectful and kind. Upon hearing Percy speaking in Olysian, Ladon let out a bow that he could manage. "Why do you wish to speak with us?" all the heads asked in unison.

"We have a proposition for you" Triton said. All the heads looked sceptically and the duo, asked "what kind of proposition?" They both smiled before Percy told them of the offer and when they were done telling Ladon of the offer, the great dragon simply nodded in agreement to show approval of their offer, they also said that each head wants to have a body of their own, to which Percy agreed to do, but only after they swear loyalty to firstly Olysia and Atlantis, than swear loyalty to Olympus so long as they are not betrayed by it on the name of Chaos and Order, to which they agreed.

After the oath was sealed, she started chanting, enveloping Ladon in a bright light and after a few moments the light died down revealing one hundred men standing end to end. These men had once been the great dragon Ladon. "Before you ask, I have turned to into a more human appearance, but you possess the powers and strength you had, just in human form and some of you can control fire and some can control water and project it using your hands and if you summon your wing you will notice they have feathers now" she said and they all bowed low in her honour to which she shook her heard and told them its not necessary. After the little talk with the dragon she and Triton went over to the waiting Hesperides revealing her true form as they walked towards them and when they arrived Percy told them about the plan to relocate the garden to Olysia, away from Othrys, which they agreed to. Percy called over the newly separated dragons and when they arrived she transported all of them to the gardens of Olysia which were stunning, the city itself was a marvel to behold. She motioned them to start walking towards the palace at the centre of Olysia, while all they all gaped at the city before them. The Palace in the middle of the city was Architecturally the most intricately designed structure she had ever seen, the pillar in front looked to made from marble and the pathway was made with mixture white marble with gold trimmings and adorned with perfectly cut diamonds and other gems that form patterns of lightening and when light hits the mosaic it resembles actual lightening.

The whole archway that led to the doors of the Palace was made of marble and lime stone with Paintings of the events that were most important to the city but, portraying it in a very dignified manner. The whole structure was made from white marble, lime stone and hints of gold, platinum and celestial bronze. When they arrived at the doorway of the palace, the saw the large celestial bronze double doors open for them without as much as a squeak. The throne room was simple and without decoration symbolising that the thrones do not have occupants except one of the two in the middle and the two to her left and on her right had symbols on them. She rose to her godly height of 100ft and instinctively went to sit on one of the thrones in the centre of the twenty thrones and when she sat on her throne she could truly feel the extent of her power and felt the that all her domains had been claimed. She motioned her brother, now Primordial of clouds, upper light and the navy to claim his throne and when he did sixteen figures flashed in standing in front of her. The figures in front were Aether, Primordial of light and upper atmosphere, Hemera, Primordial of day, Hydros, Primordial of water, Nyx, Primordial of night, Erebos, Primordial of darkness, Hestia, now revealed, Primordial of hearth and home, Poseidon, Primordial of the seas, storms, earthquakes and horses and Ampitrite, now Primordial of rain, sea creatures and the winds, chronos, Promordial of time, Ourea, Primordial of mountains, Nesoi, Primordial of Islands, Eros, Primordial of love and desire, Phanes, Primordial of procreation, Ananke, Primordial of inevitability, Elpis, Primordial of hope and Physis, Primordial of creation. They all bowed slightly to Percy and instinctively went to their throne with women on the left and men on the right. When Percy stood, all of the other Primordials could feel the power and Authority, along with kindness and an open heart coming from her and this prompted all the other Primordials to rise

. "I am pleased to welcome you all into the new Protogenos council, but as you can see there are still three vacant seats that need filling, but is matter for later, for now, lets begin the meeting" Percy said with the grace of a queen, which she was. Poseidon rose from his throne and said "Thank you, my daughter for welcoming us into the council" and he went back to his seat and all the other deities nodded to show support for his statement. Percy smiled at the kind words of her father before saying "The 100 figures that stand before us are the former Ladon, who I have turned into humanoid form to make it easier to blend in an the Apple of immortality will continue to be guarded by one of the Ladon and I have come up with a plan for them to be guardians of the city and our respective domains in our absence and also I would like to resurrect the former hunter of Artemis Zoe Nightshade and make her member of the council and also make her sisters into minor nature goddesses with your permission". All the other councillors engaged in private discussions about the notion being presented and after two hours, they had elected a representative to announce their decision. Hestia who was the selected representative stepped forward from her throne and said "We as the members of the Olysian council accept your notion on all accounts and we would like they swear oaths as we shall do the same to forever be loyal to the Olysian council above all other entities besides those to Lord Chaos and Lady Order, and we demand that each primordial have five guardians and the remaining guardian that are left due to the incomplete council serve as guards to the city and be available should the need arise", Percy just nodded in agreement.

After the ruling the council member rose from the throne and made their oaths, and after the councillors went back to their thrones there was a flash of light that was carrying a sleeping form of Zoe nightshade and after a few minutes she woke up. To say Zoe was surprised was an understatement, she became a lot more surprised when she saw Poseidon, Hestia, Amphitrite and Triton on their thrones and asked "Where am I", Hestia smiled and got up from her throne and shrunk to her height and said "This is the Olysian council child and we have returned to life once more and to offer you proposition to join our council per request of our Queen" "who is your queen?" she asked timidly trying not to offend anyone because this council makes the Olympian council look like specks of dust the power rolling of each throne is amazing. "I am the queen of Olysia" said Percy with a warm smile and changed into her former appearance, this shocked Zoe to the core and all she could say was a soft "Perseus" to which Percy said "I was that once, due to the spell the Moirai cast and Lord Chaos and Lady Order Removed it and gave me immortality, Now I'm Persephone, now Zoe we would like to invite you to our council, what do you say?" Zoe was lost for words for a few moments before she agreed to join the council. "before we proceed, your sister would like to issue an apology to you and regret what they did to you and hope that one day you will be able to forgive them" at this point Zoe and her sisters were in tears and hugged each other in confirmation that all is forgiven and the ceremony began an all the Hesperides bar Zoe were made Goddesses of rivers, lakes and dams and for Zoe the Primordial started chanting in Olysian and she was engulfed in a bright light and after a few seconds the light died down and she now stood 100ft like the other council members and before she went her throne she was made to swear the oath they all swore. After swearing she went to claim her domains and when she sat she said "I claim the domain of shadows, hunting and the air".

After Zoe sat on her throne she was introduced to everyone and what surprised her is that despite the power they all possess they acted as a family. The meeting would continue for a few more hours and over the few months the council continued to grow in strength until summer arrived once more.

Line Break

Even after eight months all he could think about was the woman who stole his dreams from him and now was continuing his search for her. After another day of useless searching he decided to park his car near a cabin on Montauk beach and saw a figure who had her eyes closed looking like she enjoyed the breeze of the sea. "lovely night isn't it?" he asked the woman and she replied without turning her head and said "it truly is " Apollo motioned closer to the woman who did not seem to notice and sat next to her without saying anything watched the movement of the seas and heart is starting to beat faster as he saw the black hair that had haunted his dreams for eight months and in those eight months not once did he sleep around, the dreams he had of her were always worth the wait in his opinion. Unbeknownst to him, he also had invaded her dreams and they could talk all night long or just cuddle with each other. The dream they share were in truth connected, meaning they had been together for last eight months. Percy just had to look at the person next to her, her heart did summersaults and she could feel herself smiling, just being close to him made her happier than she had ever been and in a moment he turned to see the smiling form of Percy and also had a similar smile on his face and began to say "You know for the last eight months you are all I could think about, nothing and no one else mattered, I used find myself waiting for it to become night so I could the night with you on the beach or in the garden Circean Bluffs, I know it will sound weird but I know no matter how hard I may try to say otherwise that I love you" he said with tears in his eyes and as he was getting up to leave he heard "I love you too, and had those dreams every night Delian" she said softly but loud enough for him hear and she too was on her feet. Apollo slowly walked over to her and engulfed her in a kiss that was full of so much love and care and when they broke apart they both said "wow" looking at each other with love filled in their eyes. After a few minutes of comfortable silence, Apollo was the one break break it and said "I Delian Phoebus Apollo vow to forever be faithful to Persephone Allura should she choose to have me, this I swear on the all rivers of the underworld and to Lord Chaos and Lady Order" violent thunder rumbled leaving a shocked Percy before she to said" I Persephone Allura Jackson vow to forever be faithfull to Delian Phoebus Apollo should he choose to have me, this I swear on the all rivers of the underworld and to Lord Chaos and Lady Order" violent thunder rumbled sealing both oaths. Apollo looked shocked when he heard Jackson and Percy said "I'm Percy Jackson" Apollo just shrugged and kissed her.
