Percy led me up to the doors of the Empire State Building and I frowned.
"What's with you?" He asked me quietly.
"I have no idea." I told him as we got on the elevator.
He pulled me into his arms, kissing my forehead. "Hey, Wise Girl. Look here." He muttered, pulling my face up by my chin to look at me. "What's wrong?"
"Olympus makes me a bit nervous." I muttered to him.
"Why?"
"Um.. a bunch of gods, and goddess hanging out in their palace, No worries."
He chuckled. "Nothing to worry about Annabeth." He promised as the doors opened. We stepped out on the path and he led me toward the lights of Olympus.
Soon we were standing in the palace surrounding by the gods and goddesses of
Olympus.
"So you're both still alive.." Artemis mused, looking us over. She seemed exceptionally short on her huge goddess throne in the form of a 12 year old girl. "Amazing.."
"Not without help from you all." Percy told her, nodding.
"Oh and they're getting married!" Aphrodite squealed from her spot.
"Yes! How wonderful!" Hera exclaimed happily.
"Yes. How wonderful. This is just great!" Zeus muttered, sarcastically.
"These little demigods are going to cause the next big prophecy to happen! They are bringing it on! We cannot allow this."
"Oh, Zeus, you know that there is no stopping the prophecy." Athena said, gazing out the window. "The prophecy is set in stone. It's already been set into motion."
"Yes, Zeus, lets not be hasty!" Persephone said quietly from her perch.
"Listen to Athena, Zeus. She's the goddess of wisdom. Listen to her. There is nothing we can do at this point. It's going to happen one way or another. It is their fate and this way we can monitor it and be somewhat ready for whatever is coming at us." Hestia mused quietly.
"Oh but why now? Why push it? We just had a war! Why start another?" Zeus asked angrily.
"Oh bring it on. I'm ready for another war." Ares commented, smiling.
"I'm not so sure..." Demeter mumbled, staring off out the window. "Another war so soon… It doesn't seem to be a good idea. Are we ready for another war so soon?"
"Let's put it to a vote, shall we?" Artemis said, looking around. People nodded. "Aphrodite?"
"I vote to allow it!" She said happily. "We need a demigod couple to get married... it's never happened before!"
"Apollo?" Artemis asked, looking over at him.
"Yes. The prophecy is set in stone. There isn't any changing it." He answered, smiling down at us.
"Ares?"
"I say yes. Bring on the fight!" He called from his throne.
"Athena?"
"Yes." She smiled down at me.
"Dionysus?"
"No not now. We aren't ready for another war. Peter and Annie Bell will just have to wait."
"Demeter?"
"I'm sorry, young ones... but I must say no. We're still rebuilding... This isn't time for another war."
"Hades?"
"No."
"Hephaestus?"
"No. I don't think so."
"Hera?"
"Yes."
"Hermes?"
"I vote yes."
"Hestia?"
"I find no problem in it."
"Poseidon?"
Poseidon looked over at us quietly, pondering. For a scary moment I thought he was going to say no. "I agree... with Athena. There is no stopping this. And Hestia has a point. We can monitor this... know when its coming."
"Persephone?"
"Yes. We must be prepared."
"Zeus?"
"No."
"I say yes." Artemis mumbled, mentally counting.
"I say we give the minors a chance to vote." Poseidon mumbled, gazing at Percy.
I looked at Percy. He had counted to. 10 yes. 5 no. How did this become a matter for the gods to discuss? He reached out and took my hand, squeezing it. He smiled.
The whole room turned to the back wall where the minor gods were standing, looking on at the scene.
Artemis smiled at them. "Deimos?"
"I don't think so... no war." He said, cowering against the back wall.
"East River?"
"Sure! Percy here made the water clean once. I think I owe it to him."
Percy smirked at my side.
"Hebe?"
"Yes. Young demigods need this."
"Hecate?"
"I vote yes."
"Hudson River?"
"No."
"Iris?"
"I say yes. We can fight this battle."
"Janus?"
"Yes. I like this girl. I think if she thinks it's a good call it is."
"Morpheus?"
"No."
"Melinoe?"
"No."
Percy's body was stiff at my side, but I just took a breath and watched.
"Nemesis?"
"No."
"Why has it come to this?" Percy yelled angrily from my side. "How is this right? This is our life! Why is this all the sudden your decision?"
"Peace Percy." Poseidon mumbled from his throne. I pulled Percy closer to my side and smiled up at him, "Go on Artemis."
"Phobos?"
"No. I don't like war. It makes me anxious."
"Pompona?"
"Yes."
"The yeses have it!" Artemis called through the hall.
"This is hardly fair! Athena and Poseidon are biased. It's their children! Oh and East River based his vote upon no grounds!" Zeus yelled angrily.
"You insult me if you think I based my vote on anything but what I felt was the right thing to do, brother." Poseidon said angrily still looking at Percy.
"Well your wrong! We cannot let a war start so soon after the Titan war. Our defenses are weakened." Zeus yelled back.
"But it cannot be changed! This will happen soon enough! Why should we wait? If we wait we will be defenseless and know nothing!"
"We aren't secure enough to go to war now Poseidon! How do you not see that?"
"Zeus do you really think these two are going to have children soon? Really? They're just kids! How long do you predict it will take to regain safety?"
"Children are irresponsible. Things could happen. Accidents. Then all of the sudden we have a war going on around us."
"Have you forgotten that even after the children are born its fourteen, maybe, fifteen years until anything happens?"
"Poseidon! Zeus! This is getting us no where. The decision is made. These two demigods will get married." Hera declared.
