Hello everyone. Welcome to my new chapter. And also, I will now tell you the winner of the poll. For regular Percabeth, 64 votes and for the harem, it's…
72 votes. Percy will get a harem. For those who only want Percabeth, I'm sorry and I understand why (I like Percy/Annabeth as well), but the vote has been cast. Just please don't hate me for it. I hope the story will still be good for those who likes Percabeth. So now, enjoy.
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson or Naruto.
Capture the Flag
"Chapter 8: We Capture The Flag…" Thalia reads. The demigods who were there paled. That's when the hellhound attack Percy and since Percy is curse with that book in feeling any pain...why does the fates love to play with Percy?
(The next...a centaur.)
"Yeah, that does take away the normal part." Frank said. Most of the demigods nodded in agreement on this.
(Each morning...from Annabeth)
"Wow, even from the first time you guys met you were attach to the hip." Thalia said in a teasing tone. The two blush a little at that.
(and we...of weird.)
"We all get use to it eventually," Chris said, with all the demigods once again nodding in agreement.
(I discover...much headache.)
'Lucky,' Jason thought bitterly, 'I had an extremely hard time learning it.' He still angry at Percy, but not at the point in blind rage or blind arrogance anymore. But most can tell that he's far from his regular self.
(The rest...his tail.)
Most of the people laugh at that while Percy blush and Chiron grimace at the reminder. He had a hard time sitting down for a while.
Orion sneer at his half-brother, "Archery is easy, brother." he bragged and spat out the last word like poison, glad that the so-called hero is bad at something. Everyone glare at him, especially Annabeth, Rachel, Reyna, Thalia, Clarisse, Nico, Artemis, and Naruto. Poseidon groan and put both hands on his face. Just where did he go wrong with Orion, with half of his children? At least Percy and Theseus are good people.
Apollo turn to Percy with a grin, "I can teach you Perce and give you my blessing to help." Apollo like Percy. He's not like the bastard Orion and is fun to be around. Artemis turn to Percy as well.
"I will also teach you as well," Artemis commented, "You are a good demigod and I would like to teach you." Percy blush at the attention, but smile and bow at the twin immortals. Apollo flash smile to Artemis, but the goddess ignore it. It hurt him a bit, but he didn't show it. Orion scowl. He's hating his brother more and more.
(Foot racing...lovesick gods.)
Apollo, Hermes, Dionysus, Zeus, Ares, and Poseidon squirm and shrink under the glares of the goddesses. The demigods, Rachel, Sally, Grover, Hephaestus, Naruto, and Hades snicker or giggle quietly at the gods.
(And wrestling...my ear.)
"Sorry," Clarisse whispered to Percy while Ares cheer for Clarisse. Percy just smile at her, silently telling her that it's okay.
(The only...the Minotaur.)
"We were actually disappointed when we saw that," Connor commented, but whither under three glares. Annabeth, Reyna, and Rachel.
(I knew...Ares kids)
"Damn right!" Ares grunted. Sally had a disgusted look. Like she would ever be with a grunt like him.
(or as...Apollo kids.)
"I wish you were my son though," Apollo said, a little disappointed with Hermes nodding in agreement. It would've been cool if Percy was their child.
(I didn't...with metalwork)
"Most of my kids can make weapons in minutes," Hephaestus said, with a hint of pride in his voice. Leo beam at his dad, with Hephaestus giving a small smile back.
(or-gods...vine plants.)
Dionysus snorted, "Well the feeling mutual, Pedro." In truth, he like the demigod a bit more than all the other ones. He is not arrogant about his ability from what he seen. But he wasn't going to tell anyone that.
(Luke told...of Hermes)
"I wish," Hermes said in disappointment. Percy would be an awesome son to have, next to Luke of course.
(a kind...of none.)
Hermes wince at that. It hurt, seeing or hearing, in this case, that his son still angry at him.
(But I...me either.)
Once again, all the demigods are stunned. They can't believe what Percy is thinking. They thought he was suspicious of him at the beginning or was jealous of him. But now, they began to see why he hate him so much and it's not because of jealousy.
(Despite all...at night.)
"You surprisingly do get used to that," Katie said. That surprise most of the demigods on the first weeks they've been at Camp Half Blood, but were glad for it. They wouldn't have slept otherwise.
(Despite all...Nothing came.)
Poseidon sigh in guilt. He wanted to claim Percy, he really did, but he didn't want to put him in even more danger until he absolutely need to claim him.
(I tried...her back…)
"You can't bring back the dead," Hades firmly said, ignoring the glares of few of the goddesses and his brother. Persephone is way scarier than them, "Thanatos wouldn't allow it. He will keep the dead where they at." Nico and Hazel squirm uncomfortably at that, since dad might talk about why Hazel is still alive.
(I started...phone appear?)
"The gods can't abandon their duty!" Zeus said firmly, "We also interfere with demigod or mortal liv-" Before he could say anything, a kunai embedded in his throne, right near his head. He jump in shock and look to see who thrown the kunai. The one who did it was Naruto, who eyes are red again.
"Shut. Up." Naruto said with gritted teeth. "That is no excuse. Those idiotic rules says that can't interfere with their future. There's nothing saying that you can't visit them or talk to them. I visit the demigods I rescue and it didn't change their future, so why can't you?" The gods feel that guilt coming up again and some of them lit up in realization. They didn't think about that loophole.
Zeus, however, isn't thinking however. Right now, he is standing and his eyes are red with fury. "You will stop commanding minor god! I am the king of the gods, not you! Know your place!" Thunder started rolling around all over and the sky blackened. Naruto didn't even flinch. He stood up at the same height and glare at Zeus just as hard, if not more. A dark aura surrounded and he let out a lot of killing intent that it almost suffocate the demigods. Strangely enough, the baby didn't wake from the killing intent.
"Sorry to burst your bubble Zeus, but I don't listen to anyone!" Naruto growl out, "I make my own rules and even the fates can't control me! I make my own fate, my own life, my own destiny!" The demigods look at him with shock and some with admiration. They wanted that. To be from fate, to make their own life, not for it to be chosen for them. Zeus was about to say/yell something, but Naruto continued.
"How about to shut you up, we fight at the next break!" Naruto challenged Zeus, "You and me, full power. No backup, no nectar nor ambrosia to heal us, just our powers and weapons. Or you can send one of the minor gods and watch from the sideline, like the coward you are." Zeus instantly fell for the rise. Zeus turn even more red and if this was a cartoon, steam would've come out of his ears.
"Fine!" Zeus exclaimed, Then sneer, "You better give your all boy! I'm the king of the gods and I defeated Kronos, also creating the greatest." Hercules had a smug while Perseus something like 'Leave me out of this'.
Naruto just smirk at him, "Don't worry, I will. I just hope your skills didn't rust or you're not just piping smoke, old man." Zeus had to bite his tongue to stop himself from arguing further and just sat down on his throne.
When Naruto sat down, everyone started murmuring bets. Who would win, how will one of them win, how long the fight will take. Most of the people voted for Naruto while a few voted for Zeus. Thalia went back to reading.
(Thursday Afternoon...our instructor.)
The demigods manage to hide a growl when Luke's name was mention.
(We started...were good.)
Katie snorted, "Good is an understatement. We first thought that you were experienced in the sword art at first." Percy blush at the compliment, making his friends laugh or giggle at that. Percy can never take a compliment, ever.
(The problem...for me.)
"Riptide is the only sword for me," Percy said, grinning as he hold the sword up again. This sword helps him with the worse of battles.
(We moved...first time.)
"It was probably because he wanted to see if you're a threat or embarrass you," Nico muttered darkly. He hate Luke as much as Percy and all of Hermes cabin does.
("Good luck...hundred years.")
Hermes cheered for his son while the greek campers share a smirk.
"Sorry to burst your bubble Hermes," Rachel said loudly, stopping his cheers. "But Luke isn't the best anymore. Percy took that title." Hermes mouth dropped at that. Oh come on! Meanwhile, Poseidon started cheering.
("Maybe he'll...camper snorted.)
"He didn't go easy on the others, even against his siblings." Travis said, wincing as he remember the painful battle he had.
(Luke showed...back!" Whap!)
Percy wince and groan at every hit while the baby cried with every hit Luke did. Annabeth hug Percy tightly while Rachel did the same with the baby. The people who like Percy wonder if they should hate the fates for putting that curse on Percy or Luke for being the crap out of him.
(By the...the same.)
"Oh no," Hermes groan while Poseidon and most of the campers grin. Time to see Percy beat the crap out of Luke.
(Instantly, I...so awkward.)
The grins got even wider and the two Percy's found their energy rejuvenated.
("Okay, everybody...little demo.")
"Most likely want to look good," Thalia bitterly said. Again, the gods didn't hear her luckily.
(The Hermes...punching bag.)
Travis, Connor, and Chris look down sheepishly at that. They were part of that group as well.
(He told...this technique.")
"Luke been training to master that for a long time," Annabeth said. Jason scowl. He didn't manage to do it yet.
"It took me two years while it took Luke one," Clarisse mentioned. Hermes cheered again while the campers who watch the fight (Chris, Travis, Connor, Katie) grin at one another.
(He demonstrated...Ready, Percy?")
The campers grin again, excited to read the first fight with Percy and Luke.
(I nodded...disarming maneuver.)
"It's not going to work," Hermes said, "Like Luke said, it takes years for swordsman to master it." Those words are about to be eaten.
(My blade...undefended chest.)
Everyone was silent. The one who didn't saw the fight and the gods are gobsmack. Percy just master of move that swordsmen took years to master, in matters of minutes.
Finally, Leo broke the silence. "That...was...AWESOME!" Leo shouted the last word and broke everyone out of their trance. The campers started asking Percy stuff like, "How did you do it?" and "Why didn't you say anything?", plus some compliments as well, making the Son of Poseidon blush heavily. Leo, Piper, Theseus, and Perseus are the most impress since they didn't knew nothing about Percy.
Jason, however, is burning with rage and jealousy, although it wasn't as strong as before. Why couldn't he do that? How come he couldn't master that move when Jackson mastered it in a few seconds? Hercules and Orion are also steaming with jealousy as well.
With the gods, Poseidon cheered loudly for his son. Hermes was brooding at the fact that his son lost while the other gods are impressed, even Ares and Athena. Naruto is grinning, thinking of finding a time to fight with Percy. He would like to see the skills for himself. The only gods who aren't impress is Dionysus, because he could care less, and Zeus.
'This demigod proves to be too powerful with each chapter,' Zeus thought, his paranoia coming up, 'I will read more and when I get enough proof, I will talk to the gods about getting the boy killed before he cause us trouble.'
After everyone calmed down, Thalia got back to reading.
(The others… "Um, sorry.")
Everyone look at him, not believing what he said at that time. Did Percy really just said sorry, after beating someone in swordfight.
"So let me get this straight?" Frank asked slowly, "You defeated Luke in a swordfight, with a move that should've taken years to learn, and you say sorry?" Percy blush at that.
"I didn't why everyone was silent and staring, so I thought I did something wrong." Percy explained, his voice small. A few minutes of silence, then most of the people bursted out laughing. Leo, Apollo, Hermes, Nico, and the Stolls fell out of their seats, laughing. The line they read, it so ridiculous that it was funny. Percy even blush even more and pouted at that.
'There's no way. No possible way,' Jason thought, his mind in conflict, 'No one is that modest, can they? Even the most noble demigod is not that modest.'
(For a… "Beginner's luck?")
"Just ran out energy," Percy admitted, remembering feeling weaker and imbalance. God, he hate the drawbacks of water healing.
(Luke wiped...balanced sword…")
"A lot of damage," Everyone who been on a quest with Percy or fought with him said. Basically, every camp half blood demigod, Grover, Hazel, Frank, and Reyna. Percy blush once again, making some wonder if that going to be a permanent color.
(Friday afternoon...my forearms.)
"I hate that blasted wall," Percy muttered, with a the greek campers, except Leo, nodding in agreement. That made Leo pouted. The wall is awesome to him!
(We sat...job complete.")
"Which happened," Percy said, grinning at his best friend. Grover grin back and fist bump with Percy.
(My spirits...me along?")
"I know I said it before, but I'll say it again. Of course I want you along." Percy said, "You're the best Satyr ever. Thalia, Juniper, and Annabeth agrees with me." The three girls nod in agreement and Juniper kiss Grover on the cheek, making the satyr blush.
Zeus disagreed, but he kept his opinion to himself, for once.
("Of course...be mad.")
"Yeah, I would get mad," Artemis admitted. She would've turn half the boys in camp half blood into jackalopes in blind anger. "It also use for my hunters when they stay at camp. Speaking of which…" She turn to Naruto, with a pleading eye.
"Can I get my hunters here? So they can spend time with us?" Artemis said, with a cute tone that left most of the gods bewildered, especially Apollo and Aphrodite. "Please?"
Naruto chuckled inwardly. Artemis love to use that against them and he often submits to it, "Sure my little hunter. After this chapter, we can get the hunters." She hug and say about five thank yous. Then, she notice everyone staring at her in bewilderment.
"Tell anyone else about this, I will turn you into a jackalope and hunt you for sport!" Many paled and look away, looking at something else that seem interesting to them.
("Yeah, okay...Big Three?")
"No," Hades said flatly. "My brother can't trust my own children at camp nor can any of the campers," The campers look down guiltily while Zeus doesn't look guilty at all. He had the right to be suspicious, he told himself.
"No don't worry dad," Nico reassure his father, "Percy is going to fix that problem." Hades eyes show interest at that. How can the boy change Zeus mind?
(Grover tensed...with mortals.)
"That is correct satyr," Hera agreed, then glare at Zeus. "That is my husband job." Zeus squirm under his wife gaze. But underneath that scary glare, Naruto and Hestia can see the emotional pain in them. Just like yesterday.
(That's her husband job.)
"YOU USELESS SATYR!" Zeus roared in anger, making Grover cower in his seat. "YOU DARE DISRESPECT-"
"Don't get your panties in a twist Zeus, he isn't wrong." Naruto interrupted, defending Grover. "I heard from Artemis and Hestia of how many lovers you have, plus the fact that you are the first one to break the oath and quite frankly, I'm surprised that Hera didn't end the relationship with you." Zeus turn red with rage and Hera gave Naruto a look of surprise.
"You dare talk to me that \way!" Zeus raged, his anger taking over again. "Hera is bound to be my wife, now and forever, not matter what I do!"
"Only because you forced yourself upon her and gave her no choice, but to marry you." Naruto countered, making Zeus fume even more. "And while I don't agree on her taking it out on the women you sleep with or the children you had, except for Hercules. He deserve worse," Said demigod glare at Naruto, but the blonde ignore it. "I agree on the fact that you are the worst spouse ever."
At the end of the speech, veins popped out of Zeus forehead, but he stop himself from attacking. He can do that later.
Meanwhile, Hera gave Naruto a stun look. No one ever defended her, ever. Everyone always see her as the bad guy. Then she wonder, if Naruto can help her break off the marriage with Zeus.
The demigods were also thinking as well. They always saw Hera in a bad light and they never saw her point of view. But now that Naruto said all that, that got them thinking about her in a different light, especially the ones that hate her the most. And they hope Naruto can change Hera for the better.
(When we...cabin here.")
"We do in the future," Nico said with a grin. That got the interest of the gods and a suspicious glare from Zeus.
"And why would I allow something like that?" Zeus said suspiciously. He doesn't trust any child of Hades to be in that camp. The demigods reply in "It'll be in the book," making Zeus angrier, if that is possible.
("No. He...at that.")
"Hey!" Nico cried and Hazel cried out and glared at Grover. Even though Hazel isn't greek, Grover is still talking about her father like that. Grover raise his hand and sweatdropped. Two glares from the son of Hades is scary.
"Sorry," Grover chuckled sheepishly, "I didn't really know you guys at that time." The two huff, but stop glaring at him.
("But Zeus...the myths.)
Hera glare at Zeus once again, who is ignoring the glare, while Poseidon rub his head sheepishly. He really need to control his emotions when meeting a women. He had gotten the couch way too many times.
(But why...no kids?")
"Only I did," Hades said, glaring at his brother. "And ironically, the oath was made mainly for me and I'm the only one who kept the oath." Poseidon rub his head, sheepish again, while Zeus stand stiffly in his throne. He will not admit he guilty of breaking it, even if it was obvious.
(Grover's face...help himself.)
"No he cannot," Percy, Thalia, Perseus, Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Demeter, and Naruto deadpan. Zeus glare at most of them and he gave his two children a look of betrayal, but they didn't pay attention.
(When he...girl's fault.")
Thalia smile at Percy in appreciation. She ignore the fact that she was called a little kid because she was at that time. Percy smile back and hug his sister figure, making Jason scowl at the scene.
(Grover hesitated...torment Thalia.)
"Sorry about that Thalia," Hades told the hunter sincerely. "I shouldn't put the blame on you." Thalia was surprised that the god apologize to her, but smile and accepted the apology.
(A satyr...the others.)
"You should've abandoned them you useless Satyr!" Zeus growled, making Grover whimpered. "Your mission was to keep my daughter safe, not those other demigods!" He got a lot of glares for that. Mainly Percy, Thalia, Annabeth, Hermes, and Athena.
"Zeus!" Thalia growled out, glaring at her so called father. "For the last time, that was my choice! I would not abandon Luke and Annabeth after all we went through and I would not change anything that happen!" Zeus open his mouth to argue, but most of the people her glare at him and silently told him to shut up. Zeus sat down on throne and grumble like a child.
Grover gave Thalia a grateful smile, which she returned with a grin.
(So Thalia...that hill.)
Zeus shoulders collapsed, but stay strong and hold back his tears. He wish those rules didn't exist so he could save Thalia, but he had to follow them. At least, that what he thought.
(As she...Half-Blood hill.)
Thalia flinch at the reminder. She miss years of her life and was alone as well. She wish she had died instead of become of tree.
She felt a hand on her owns and look to see Nico, smiling at her and squeeze her hand in support. Thalia smile back, her memory of those years washed away. Unknown to them, the gods and demigods are watching them.
Most of the demigods are smiling at the two along with most of the gods. Leo, Hermes, Apollo and the Stolls are making bets of when are they going to date. Aphrodite squirming in her seat, really giddy. Hera doesn't particularly care. Zeus and Jason are glaring at Nico while Hades glare at Thalia, though it was an overprotective father glare. And Hercules and Orion don't particularly care either.
(The story...like much.)
"Not true Perce," Thalia said, smiling at Percy, "You did better than I did and was just as brave. After all, you did made it at camp."
Percy blush, but smile at the hunter, "Thanks Thal, but don't count yourself out. You did pretty amazing and you protected your friends." Thalia smile back and gave a sisterly hug. Jason had to hold back a growl and ignore pain in his heart.
(I wonder...my mother?)
Sally got up and hug Percy, which he return. The goddesses and female demigods aww at the site.
"You did good Percy," Sally whisper to him, "Never doubt."
Percy smile at his mother and nodded. "Thank you mom." Sally broke the hug and then turn to Rachel.
"Rachel, can I see Percy again?" Sally asked. Rachel look reluctant, with the baby cuddling to her, but did so. The baby automatically snuggle into his mother, making the women go "awww" again.
("Grover," I...Hercules. Houdini.")
Hercules and Zeus had a smug look on his face, which everyone ignore. Bastard, most of them thought.
("And have...I lied.)
Poseidon groan. Look Percy will be the second son that will give him heart attacks 24/7.
("I was...something special.")
Jason perked up. Did Percy finally said something arrogant? Thalia, seeing her brother look, decided to burst his bubble.
"Jason, Percy was just stating the fact," Thalia corrected him with a smirk, "He didn't mean it in arrogant tone," Grover nodded, agreeing to that. Jason shoulders slump. Drat.
(Grover look...worry, okay?")
"You're lucky that Nemesis isn't here," Athena pointed out, "She is a goddess, not a god." Grover blush and thank the gods that Nemesis isn't here.
(I got...the flag.)
"All right, some action!" Ares cheered. A Foam finger and sword appeared in his hand and begin cheering. The gods stare at him, wondering if the man lost his sanity.
Clarisse and Annabeth wince, remembering what happen in this chapter. Clarisse, nearly maiming Percy and Annabeth, putting Percy for using him as a chess piece in the game.
Chris and Percy wrap their arm around the waist of their respective girlfriends in comfort, seeing their guilty look. The girls sigh in bliss and snuggle into their boyfriends.
The gods saw this and some smile at the four, especially Poseidon and Hermes. Aphrodite is trying to hold back a squeal. Zeus, Artemis, and Dionysus didn't really care. And Ares and Athena are glaring at Chris and Percy, respectively.
(When the...the flag's?")
"Sure," Jason said sarcastically, getting everyone attention. "You can tell they're dripping with paint," You can hear the harshness in his voice, which made the demigods glare.
After they stop glaring at Jason, Reyna turn to the Greek Percy, "So the capture the flag game is like our war game at Rome?"
Percy nodded, "Yeah, except we don't have towers or an elephant." That got the greek demigods curious. They got an elephant? A tower?
Percy, seeing the look, sigh and said, "I'll tell you about it at lunch time." The demigods are satisfied with that.
(He grinned...the torchlight.)
"Foreshadowing," Hestia, Artemis, and Athena murmured. They have a bad feeling that Luke is gonna be involve in these books. As the antagonist. Luckily, none of the other gods notice.
("We've made...of them.)
Dionysus sighed fondly when his children was mention while Percy and the others who was at the Battle of the Labyrinth wince. There is only one child of Dionysus now.
(Demeter's kids...very aggressive.)
"But we are still good in a fight," Katie argued. People alway look down on Demeter's cabin because of their peaceful demeanor. Percy held his hand up in a placating way.
"I didn't mean like that," Percy said, "I meant that Demeter will have the advantage in the forest." Katie and Demeter smile at Percy for the compliment.
(Aphrodite's sons...and gossiped.)
Piper frown at that. Unfortunately, that is true. She will have to change that with her siblings.
"And that is important." Aphrodite said, getting a mirror and check her makeup and hair. Everyone either groan or roll their eyes. Same old Aphrodite.
(Hephaestus's kids...a problem.)
"We builders are awesome!" Leo said with a grin. Hephaestus grunted, but smile.
(That, of...the planet.)
Ares cheered once again, waving his foam finger. Clarisse and Chis glare at Percy for calling her ugly, for which the Son of Poseidon raise his hand in surrender when he saw the glare.
(Chiron hammered...is allowed.)
"Lame," Ares moaned while the other agreed with that statement. Reyna decided to use that rule. Stop Octavion from killing anyone else.
...that probably wouldn't stop him anyway.
(I will...in metal.)
Reyna, Frank, and Hazel didn't show it, but they were jealous that the Greek have easy access to celestial bronze. They have a hard time finding Imperial gold, much less celestial bronze. Octavion, however, doesn't hid it.
"How come you Greeks have easy access to these weapons?!" Octavion shouted at them, making everyone jump in surprise. "The Romans have a hard time find imperial gold! We never had celestial bronze! The Romans deserve those weapons more than you Greeks!"
Everyone is glaring at him, even Jason, Hercules, and Orion is angry at him. The demigods are wondering who is the bigger jerk, Octavion or Hercules.
"Octavion," Reyna started coldly, making Octavion pale. "I suggest you will be quiet before the gods blast you!" Octavion paled even more and look fearfully at the gods, who are keeping their hands on their godly weapons. Even Aphrodite, Hestia, and Demeter are angry at the pale skin blonde.
Octavion shut his mouth and sat on his hand to avoid saying anything else. He's not that stupid to say anything else in front of the gods.
("Whoa," I...use these?")
Everyone stared at Percy like he said the sky is green. Percy blush when he saw the looks.
"I thought we were going to use wooden swords or something like that," Percy muttered out. They continue staring before they got back to book.
(Luke looked...cabin five.)
"I think no one want to be skewered," Naruto remarked. After all, he know how it felt like. Pein was a tough fighter.
(Here-Chiron...kept marching.)
"Why the cold shoulder Annie?" Thalia teased. She dodge a knife that was coming towards.
Annabeth hid a blush from the others. The reason she was ignoring Percy because she was trying to ignore the feeling in her chest when he's with her.
("So what's...stolen something.)
"Not my kid Annabeth," Hermes said, with a wistful expression. "Wish he was though." Poseidon stuck out his tongue at Hermes.
("Just watch...a plan.")
Athena smile proudly at that.
(She pushed...your team.")
Annabeth sighed in guilt. She is really a big prick to Percy at that time. She wonder how she acted when she found out that.
(It was...as usual.)
"Um, I change my mind," Percy said, "I don't anymore more of that kind fun. No more." The demigods laugh at that.
(Then I...close by.)
Everyone tense up at that, especially the ones that saw that attack. The hellhound was watching him the whole time? All the greeks demigod, except Leo and Piper, thought.
(I raised...the dark.)
"Woohoo!" Ares cheered out while Percy groan. This is going to hurt. A lot.
("Cream the...air burned.)
Like what's happening now with both Percy. There arm went numb and the older Percy hiss in pain while the other woke up from painful tingling sensation. Annabeth try to comfort Percy, but it barely brought the pain down.
(Electricity. Her...the dirt.)
Percy clutch his chest in pain and bit back a groan. Most of the demigods and gods are starting to worry, especially Poseidon, Rachel, Thalia, Reyna, Nico, Annabeth, Hazel, Frank, and Sally.
(They could...busy laughing.)
Which is Ares doing now, making Poseidon glare at the god, along with those who cares for Percy.
("Give him...his hair.")
"NO!" Annabeth yelled. She immediately cover her mouth, but everyone heard and turn to her. She blush.
"Um...I like his hair long." Annabeth admitted, blushing more and burying her face into Percy's chest. Athena glare at Aphrodite. The love goddess is corrupting her daughter, she was sure of it.
"Aww, you like getting your hands in his hair while you guys make out?" Thalia teased, making Annabeth blush even more and Percy to blush as well, despite the pain he's in. The others laugh, Reyna and Rachel glare at Annabeth, and Athena glare at Percy. The tension was broken for a bit.
(I managed...felt numb.)
Like it does now and all the tension went right back. Poseidon gripping his seat, trying not to kill the daughter of Ares with Annabeth, Reyna, and Rachel trying to do the same.
("Oh, wow...Really scared.")
"You haven't seen him in full power Clarisse," Nico deadpanned. "And after he got the right weapons, you got scared then." Clarisse look away from them. Okay, maybe she is a little scared of Percy. A little.
("The flag...that way.)
"You sound more like a coward," Clarisse said bluntly. She look away from the 'I'll-kill-you-later' stare from Percy and shiver a little. Even she is scared of that glare.
("Yeah," one...look stupid.")
"You did that yourself." Naruto said bluntly. Clarisse growl, but she know it's true.
("You do...to say.)
Naruto whistle in amazement, "You really have some guts Jackson. Most people in your place would've soiled themelves." Percy blush at the compliment.
(Two of...good-size cut.)
Percy hiss in pain and hold his arm while the baby cried out in pain. Sally and Annabeth try to sooth them, but it did little. Poseidon grip the edge of the couch tighter, using all his will not to kill Clarisse and the other Ares kids. Ares is still cheering for his daughter and all his other children while Clarisse look down in guilt. She was acting arrogant and idiotic as most of her siblings and her father.
Clarisse look at Percy and mouth 'Sorry'. Percy gave her a pain smile at her, showing that didn't hold a grudge.
(Seeing my...dessert privilege.")
"WHAT?!" The olympians screamed, except for Ares, Zeus, and Dionysus. Dessert privilege?
"What kind of punishment is that?!" Demeter raged, "Whoever made that rule need cereal in order to get their head straight!" Most of the gods would've grown at that, especially Hades, if they weren't so angry.
Reyna, Hazel, and Frank are shocked as well. Like Demeter/Ceres said, what kind of punishment is that? Their punishment are much more vicious and keep their cohorts alive, for the most part.
All the Olympians turn to Dionysus, since he would the only one to make that rule. Dionysus squirm when he saw the glares, until gave up and said, "Fine, I'll change the punishment! Those games won't be as much fun anymore," he muttered the last part out.
(He pushed...would die.)
Clarisse wince. That was actually what she was thinking of doing. She probably would've killed Percy or left him to bleed.
(But then...jelly beans.)
Ares slowly stopped cheering after that and he somehow know that this would be bad. Poseidon, Naruto, and all the demigods, except Jason, Hercules, Orion, and Octavian, start grinning ear to ear. Here come badass Percy.
The two Percy felt rejuvenated and all the pain is gone.
(Clarisse and...the water.)
"Wow," Piper said in awe, "That water does wonder," Leo nodded in agreement, his view of Percy going higher and higher by every chapter. Thalia grin.
"Just wait and see what he can do with a sword," Thalia said with a grin, "Only me and Annabeth could beat him, and that take all our energy and strength." Percy turn into a tomato and bury his head into Annabeth's hair, making said girl giggle at the cuteness. Rachel secretly giggle as well and Reyna had to hold back one. She does not giggle,
(Ugly number...a twig.)
"Awesome!" Leo shouted, grinning from ear to ear. Piper giggle seeing her best friend like that. It was kinda cute, though she agree with his statement. Percy did pretty amazing.
Wait a second, cute?
Meanwhile, the others are cheering for Percy as well, the Son of Poseidon is blushing up a storm, and Jason and Ares are steaming red angry. Ares, because Jackson made his sons and daughter look like fools. And Jason, because he couldn't manage to defeat Clarisse that easily.
Theseus and Perseus are impress. There brother/cousin defeated five trained children of Ares with no help and with little training, at twelve years old. Hercules and Orion however, don't care. They think they did better than Percy.
Annabeth smile at Percy. She remember seeing the fight and she thought it was amazing.
("Ah!" she...corpse-breath worm!")
"No, that would be Nico!"
"Hey!" Nico cried out, but Thalia only grin at him. The Son of Hades pouted and muttered, "You're mean Thalia."
"But you love me for it," Thalia retorted. Then, she realize the implication and blush. Nico blush as well and the two look away from each other. Zeus and Hades growled. That boy/girl better stay away from my son/daughter, the two of them thought.
(She probably...the creek.)
Ares gripped his seat and bite his tongue, wanting to kill that Son of Poseidon real badly. But he don't cause one, he don't fight his kids battles and two, because Poseidon will kill him. And the sea-god scare him.
(Then I...a trick.")
Realization dawn on Poseidon and glare at Annabeth, making her flinch. Athena glare at Poseidon, but that had no affect.
"You use Percy!" Poseidon growled, seawater starting to swirl around him. "You use Percy as the bait and left him at the mercy of Ares' bloodthirsty kids." He ignore the shout of "Hey!" from Frank and continue glaring at Annabeth.
"Dad," Percy said in a calming voice. He knows his dad is just being overprotective and isn't being bias against Athena's childs. "It was in the past. It's done. Besides, Annabeth change from that time." Poseidon calmed down at Percy's words and sat back on the couch with Sally. He tickle the baby in Sally's arm, making the mini Percy laugh. It gots 'awwws' from the goddesses and the female demigods.
(They staggered...their shoulders.)
"So let me get this straight?" Nico began, "Percy was use as bait, had to fight five demigods, got the crap beaten out of him at first, then beat the crap out of them, and Luke took all the credit?" Most of the demigods agreed with Nico. That does seem unfair.
(Chiron cantered...her head.)
Naruto whistled out in amazement, "An invisibility hat. The greek demigods seem to have more toys than the Romans." The Romans felt a little jealous about that.
(I felt...figured out.")
Annabeth wince in guilt. In the past, she wouldn't have bat an eyelash at that, but now, she felt ashame at what she did. Looking at the war game like a chessboard and using Percy as a sacrificial pawn. Percy saw this and hug her tightly, whispering that he forgave her and not to worry about. Annabeth sighed. Percy have too good of a heart.
Reyna and Rachel look at the scene with envy and jealousy. 'Why couldn't I be with Percy?' The two of them thought.
(Annabeth shrugged...a plan.")
Annabeth wince again. That was cold thing to say and she bet some of the other thought. But Percy kept reassuring her, making her relax.
("A plan...you think?")
"Percy smart elic statements strike again!" Nico announce, making Thalia laugh. The demigods that know them had to hold back a smile. The two are cute together, even though the two of them don't know it themselves.
("No. It...and disappeared.)
Leo, and Piper drop their mouth in shock while Jason eyes widen. The water can heal him too?! Is there a limit to his powers?
("I-I don't...steadied me.)
Percy felt tired as well and would've fell to the side, if Annabeth did steady him. The baby also got tired and fell to sleep.
"And here the downside of being a Son of Poseidon," Theseus commented, with the tired Percy nodding in agreement.
("Oh, Styx...be Zeus…")
"What that suppose to mean?" Zeus growled, glaring at the daughter of Athena. Annabeth gulp and hid under Percy. She didn't have the backbone to stand up to a god, neither does any of the demigods.
Except for Percy.
"She means that you have more children than Aphrodite and Apollo combine in Greek history," Percy said, staring directly at Zeus. "And quite frankly, I agree with her." Piper and Leo's mouth dropped. Did he really just said that to Zeus, the king of Olympus?
Judging by the unsurprise expressions from the others, it is common for him to do that. 'How did he survive?' The two couldn't help but thought.
Jason is glaring at Percy for disrespecting his father. He should keep his mouth shut and respect the gods, like any roman would do. He thought that at least Reyna would agree with him, but when he look at her, he saw that she was trying to fight a smile.
Zeus growl in anger and was about to blast Percy, but then he saw the glare from the others Olympian and Naruto. Knowing that he can't do anything, he grumble and sat back on his seat.
(Before I….at me.)
"Oh no," Poseidon muttered, his face paling. Sally doesn't look so good as well and neither does most of the demigods, especially Annabeth, Thalia, Hazel, Frank, Reyna, Rachel, Nico, Grover, Theseus and Perseus. The two of them are liking Percy more and more as they read about him. Percy tense, looking ready for the pain. He know this is going to hurt a lot.
Naruto growled. Screw this. He's not going to let a baby feel this amount of pain. Without anyone noticing, he pull the curse out of the baby and made it disappear. He would've got the curse rid of both Percy's, but he don't want to alert the fate and make things worse. So as an extra precaution, he form the mist around the baby to fool the fates.
(Nobody moved… "Percy, run!")
"Please, listen to Annabeth," Poseidon pleaded, but something told him that's not going to happen.
(She tried...too fast.)
"You have the worst of luck, you know that right?" Frank said to Percy, looking very worried. Percy nodded with a grim look. That something he inherited from his mother, if anything else.
(It leaped...the other.)
Percy couldn't hold it in any longer. Percy he scream in pain and hold his chest like it was on fire. Immediately, everyone went and try to help to help. Poseidon is gripping his throne tightly and is cursing the fates for doing this to Percy. No one notice that the baby was not feeling the same thing.
"Percy, just hold on," Annabeth said, trying to comfort Percy. Her eyes is filled with tears seeing her seaweed brain in pain, "Please, hold on a bit. It won't be much longer."
Percy gritted his teeth and nodded. Reyna and Rachel try comfort him as well, but Percy is in too much pain. Percy look at Thalia and silently plead her to read. Thalia nodded and quickly got to where she stopped.
(By some...face grim.)
"Thank you Chiron," Poseidon said to the centaur, "Without you and the Apollo kids, Percy would've been dead." Sally nodded in agreement and smile in thanks. Chiron smile back at the two before paying attention to Percy problem.
("Di immortales!"...the camp.")
"Luke," the demigods who was in the titan war, whispered. Many of them are scowling in anger, remembering what Luke did.
(Luke came...glory gone.)
"Good," Nico muttered angrily. The Son of Hermes has the same expression as Nico.
(Clarisse yelled...summoned it!")
Everyone who wasn't there stare at Clarisse with expressions of disbelief. Clarisse look away from the stares, blushing and she bury her head in Chris's shoulder. "I was angry, okay?" Clarisse muttered out.
("Be quiet… "I'm okay.")
"I take that back," Percy gritted out. He was in too much shock to feel the pain. But now, he feeling it full force.
("No, you're...campers gasped.)
The pain was gone from Percy and he sigh in relief. Everybody relax after that, seeing Percy well.
("Look, I-I...I'm sorry…")
"You apologize too much," Perseus deadpanned. Percy blush at that. Yeah, he really did apologize too much.
(But they...my head.)
Poseidon sighed in relief. Finally, it was about time.
("Percy," Annabeth...not good.")
"Hey!" Poseidon cried out, pouting. "It's not that bad is it?" Annabeth smile sheepishly at that. She should had handle that better.
("It is...Sea God.")
"And that is the beginning for Percy Jackson, the Son of Poseidon," Nico announced dramatically, making the demigods laugh.
"All right," Zeus said, getting up from his throne and glare at Naruto, who glare back, "Now let start the battle between me and the minor god." Naruto merely smirk, making Zeus a bit uneasy. But before they could teleport, Annabeth stop them.
"Wait!" Annabeth cried out. The two stop and the two look at her, the God of Demons with curiosity and the God of the Sky with annoyance.
"Before we go to the arena, Naruto has something to tell us," Annabeth stare at Naruto with the same piercing and Naruto groan, knowing what she's going to ask.
"Tell us about your past."
And that's the end. On the next chapter, Naruto will tell everyone about his time as a mortal before he became the God of demon, another character will appear, Zeus and Naruto will fight, and then everyone will have lunch. Hope you enjoyed this chapter and review, follow, and favorite. See you later.
