The Protectors and Dangers
Disclaimer: I am not Mr Riordan
Hestia POV
I was in my palace on Olympus when I sensed the most frightening power I have ever felt, it was immense, then suddenly the earth began to shake, I myself was truly scared and curious of what could have happened to fuel such power. I ran outside to see what was going on and what I saw was pure panic every god that was on Olympus was cowering in fear and sky had darkened and then ground beneath our feet began to crack as another power even greater then the first erupted, but this power was awe inspiring, it felt like the universe was being ripped apart by it, I could see arcs of lightening hurdling towards the earth, but not one did It hit a populated area and the I saw a hurricane brewing and multiple tornadoes forming all around the planet, I also saw volcanoes starting to become agitated. "What could be happening for a power like this to act out to this extent" I asked myself. What ever it was must be truly big. I saw the whole Olympian council, along with Hades flashing in and flashed myself to the throne room. "Brethren, Olympus is in a state of panic" said Athena, looking terrified, but continued "We must find out who could be the source of such power, the first power was immense, but this one is beyond our deepest imagination, I sadly feel like these two powers haven't even radiated anywhere near their full power as it stands if these entities are enemies, there would be nothing that can be done to stop them" she finished and I could see true fear in every council member present except Poseidon, who looked amused, but also concerned. Hades then started to say that the power is affecting the underworld, but Tartarus the worst hit. What ever set off this power must be regretting it now, because this is unheard off for two beings to be this strong and all of the gods paled, thinking it was Chaos and Order. "Oh, no" I heard Artemis gasped, and every heard turned her direction. "What do you mean sister?" asked Athena, Artemis just sighed and said "The kids" at this I could see Poseidon's eyes darken, clutching his Trident tightly and asked "What do you mean the kids Artemis?" Artemis looked worried and said two names "Anatolios and Eione, it must be about them" Poseidon shot up and shouted "What!" Before Artemis could respond we both heard a call for the Primordial council and both Poseidon and I flashed out of Olympus.
When I arrived in my throne, I saw Percy holding a sleeping baby girl looking furious and when I saw Apollo his expression mirrored his wife's. "They tried to kidnap our children" Percy spat looking at them murderously at the figures sprawled on the floor. My eyes widened, I and the other council members had looks of horror painted on our faces and I was face palming at the stupidity of these two Titans, who is stupid enough to attack to Primordial in their own domains, furthermore the king and queen of the Primordials.
While I was mulling over those thoughts I heard Percy say, "I should remove their power as punishment for their actions; death would be too much of an escape." Percy continued and the whole council nodded, but asked how she was going to manage that, Percy ignored the question and pointed her trident and then it started drawing their complete powers and when she was done, she slammed the Trident and the power was distributed equally to every council member and I could see that we now had some authority over the two former titans' domains, "This is not over yet, our master will see this place burn to ground, you may have defeated us, but there are more of us still out there waiting for the chance to see you fall" Perses said laughing, but I could see the fear in his eyes. Apollo said "I Phoebus Apollo, hereby banished you both for all eternity and should you ever attempt to come here again you will fade instantly and then the whole council summoned their symbols of power and then shot beams at the two former Titans and then they disappeared, never to return or even attempt to go anywhere near the sleeping twins. When Oceanus and Perses had disappeared, Poseidon quickly made his way to his daughter who was not angry anymore just relived that her kids are safe. "You did well Perce, by not killing them you showed that you are indeed a true leader" said her father and she just smiled and nodded and she and Apollo announced the birth of the Prince and Princess of the heavens and the council erupted into cheers and congratulations and Apollo decided that it was now time to dismiss the session and Percy agreed and then the meeting was ended and all of the council members besides Amphitrite, Triton, Zoë, Poseidon and I left.
I saw Amphitrite walking over to Percy and took the sleeping Eione, from the arms of her mother and into her arms and looked her granddaughter and sighed happily and stroked her tiny face and exclaimed that she will look like her mother, but will most likely behave like her father and Percy and Zoë mock shuddered and smirked at Apollo, who just shook his head. For the next several hours I spent the time with Percy and Apollo talking to her parents about the babies in their arms and they all noted that they were very lovely kids even as infants they could see that they will be good kids and not fall to greed and lust for power that plagues most immortals.
After the hours of talking, the other Primordials decided that it was now time for them to go back home, leaving me with Percy and Apollo and their twins. "Percy, Apollo" I said to them and they stared attentively at me and asked if there is anything I need and I shook my head and then said "I would like to protect your children, until they can fight their own battles, but this would require is live nearby, I hope you don't mind" they looked at each other and they smiled and nodded in agreement to my plan. "Aunt Hestia you can stay with us, if that is what you wish" Apollo said looking at Percy for confirmation and she nodded as well. "I would be honoured to stay with you, I will just go and grab some of my belongings." I said with a smile. "So long these kids are safe and well trained, that would mean that their parents can fight without being too distracted by their well being and I intend to make sure that those two become powerful goods, with the sense of morality of their mother, I thought to myself and then I flashed out.

The unknown POV
"Master" a figure called out, "What is it youngling? What troubles you?" another figure, who sat in a throne that was emitting an air of malice and malevolence, asked the first figure. "Oceanus and Perses have failed our cause my lord, they had their powers taken" said the figure and his lord just bellowed in laughter. "The fools, they tried to kidnap the new born of the king and queen of the heavens, not even I would attempt such an act, to go their palace and think you could go unnoticed? The fools, the king you might fool, but his queen was once a demigod and has had to rely on her instinct to survive, that makes her even deadlier, do not concern yourself with the lowly Titans, the war has not began yet, when its over they shall bow before me" he said in melodic voice that could chill you to the bone, with how malevolent and powerful it was. Just then another figure entered the room and the two figures got into a low bow. "Milady" the two figures said with fear painted on their faces, the power the new figure was emitting had crushed the throne the figure who sat before it and a new throne rose from it and the throne was pure darkness. "The girl is too powerful even for you to defeat on your own, not to mention you're not in the same league as even the weakest member of their council and more over there is a rumour of the Queen and her hidden domains, they say these domains are so powerful, that she herself is afraid of the power" the woman said with a chilling smile on her face. The first two figures gulped and asked "What do you mean Milady?" their lady laughed "I mean, you will likely lose the war you are waging and lose badly, did you not feel the power?" the two's eyes widened and gulped in unison. "Leave the girl to me" she said with smirk.
Meanwhile lurking in the shadows four figure sat muttering spells and after a few tries a portal opened, taking them to a world that between their own and started tracking down the symbol of power of Percy. After what felt like years of searching they found what they were looking for, the truly Symbol of power of the Queen of Olysia and when they started walking towards it they started feeling out of breathe, and after a few more steps they found themselves crawling on the floor unable to move, they felt their lives leaving them and started crying for help, but no one would hear their pleas.
The woman sitting on the throne she created for herself felt her minions' pleas and she opened a portal to their location and she saw the most beautiful sword she had ever seen. The woman started walking toward the sword and felt herself getting a bit weaker they the step and her body was fighting to regain the lost energy and the faster her body worked the more her energy was sucked from her, she began to panic, so she quickly ran to the unconscious minions and flashed all of them away from the sword and for the first time fear crept into her heart, but she pushed it away and imparted her minions with some energy and opened a portal back to the world. "Milady, what happened?" the two figure asked and before she could answer three figures appeared and said in unison "We believe, you have just felt the power of one of her hidden domains" the three figures stepped out of the shadows and the woman was visibly shocked, the Moirai. "We bare a grudge against the girl, she will pay for her insolence, and our master will make sure of that" they said with an unknown evil in their voices. "We must plan, because as it stands, our forces may be greater than theirs, but they have Primordials on their side" the Moirai said and then left with a violent flash of light.
The seven figures stood there for a moment before their lady said "We must prepare for war" the other six nodded and started flashing out, but before they left the woman said "You stay Hecate, you will be our secondary spy within their domain" Hecate looked happy to help and nodded, then she flashed out.

Percy and Apollo were sitting in the living room, having a serious conversation about the strength of their council. "We need to fill up the council, as is we are only fractionally as strong as we should be" said Percy and her husband agreed. "But who could fill the council?" Apollo asked and Percy's eyes lit up and she now had a grin on her face. "How about…"
