The Sword of Olympus
A/N: I finally decided on a weapon. Thank you Allen R for your help. This will probably make the rest of this story interesting, depending on what I make up for it. Enjoy the chapter. I named it after the weapon I found so I don't have to struggle with finding a title for this chapter.
Annabeth's POV
I wanted to be close to my now deceased Percy, and I couldn't think of a better spot than the beach, that's where we had most of our romantic moments, and not to mention the scent of the sea reminded me of him. As I sat there, with tears in my eyes, remembering all the times we had, I heard a noise that sounded like someone was coming out of the sea, I thought it was probably just a camper having a swim, still I looked at the silhouette coming out. I expected him to reach down and grab a towel nearby, but he just kept on going, of course I was shocked I only know one person who can do that, but that would just be impossible, he was dead, whether I like it or not, and I do NOT like it. The figure was coming closer to me, I could almost smell his scent, which was weird since it smelt like the ocean, another thing that was one of my indicators of Percy. It took a while for my Athena brain to figure out who it was, but my brain couldn't also process who it was, it defied all logic, then again seaweed brain always defied logic. I risked saying something, my curiosity and longing got the better of me. Anyway, if I die, I'd be with my seaweed brain.
"Percy?" I managed to say, my voice sounded hoarse from not using it.
He was bewildered and surprised that someone would be here. I prayed to the Gods that he would answer, that it was my Percy.
"Annabeth, is that you?" The person replied.
'The Gods do sure answer your prayers quickly, even though it's said that when the gods torture us is when they decide to finally answer our prayers.' I thought to myself.
"SEAWEED BRAIN, ITS ME, ITS ANNABETH!" I shouted, then his body went all rigid from shock, but I ran to him, I ran as fast as I could, wanting to be in his arms once again.
Then our bodies collided but he just hugged me back and spun me around. "ANNABETH, ITS YOU, I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE YOU AGAIN!" he said loudly, I could sense that he had the same feelings that I felt when he was gone.
"Don't you ever do this to me again Seaweed Brain!" I hugged him tighter than ever before, I couldn't care if he broke a rib, I'm just happy to get my Percy back.
"I'm sorry Wise Girl" He croaked out.
"How did you... We thought you were dead!" I managed to say in between my kisses to his face.
"Well, I was, but Apollo brought me back, Kronos didn't quite stab me at my weak spot, but he did stab me well enough for my invulnerability to disappear." He said.
I was shocked when I heard that. I can't believe Percy lost his invulnerability. But hey, I'd take it any day just to have him beside me again.
"Come on, we better tell Chiron." I said to him, and we went to the big house.
Chiron was still awake, when we came. "Chiron, there's someone I think you should talk with." I said rather pleased.
"Who is it child? Can't it wait... PERCY, MY BOY, YOUR ALIVE!" Chiron said while crushing Percy with a hug.
"Tell me everything boy." He said, and Percy did. After Percy finished his story, which was obvious he left some parts out, and judging by his reactions, it was embarrassing.
Chiron had a serious face on. "This is ill news. It sound like Kronos has gotten his hands on the Sword of Hades." Chiron said darkly.
"The Sword of Olympus?" Percy and I said simultaneously.
''It was a weapon that's supposed to be long gone, you see, it's a weapon made by the elder gods. It was made at the eve of the end of the Golden Age. It was blade that was created through the power of the Olympus Earth, and Tartarus. The blade was created to bring the downfall of the titans. After Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades defeated their father Kronos as well as the other titans, the blade revealed power that the gods couldn't control and for that, they greatly feared this weapon. When they designed this blade, they thought they could master any power it could possess, but its power proved too great for them to control or even imagine. For they found it had the power to kill anything. The gods, the monsters, the invulnerable, the titans, and even the giants can't withstand the power of this blade. Eventually, Zeus, Poseidon, Hades decided that it was best that this power was best forgotten of forever. They broke the sword into five shards and hid a shard within each of the five rivers of the underworld. They thought that no one who learned of this power would ever dare to try to achieve it if they did this. They were hoping this would be good enough for Kronos to not go looking for it, if he ever had the idea to. Now, by the sounds of Percy's story, he found it and that means that if he can find a way to completely master such a power, then he could destroy us all with only a swing of that sword." Chiron explained, I bet he knew this because he was Kronos' son and that he lived for thousands of years getting involved in events such as discovering ancient power.
"We'll worry about this later; you two should get some rest." He said and we nodded in agreement.
Percy insisted that I go back to my cabin, but I won't just let him get off the hook that easily. There's no way he won't tell me the rest of his story. So I took advantage of his lack of invulnerability and forced him to tell me.
"You will tell what I want to know or else Seaweed Brain." I said.
"All right, all right I'll tell you" He said, with a blush.
We went to his cabin; I waited for him to finish in the shower while I sat in his bed. When he got out, with only a towel covering his lower body, I couldn't help but drool for him. What can I say or do, I can't resist it, not after almost losing him. I went to him, pulled him into bed, not really caring anymore about the story, and well, I bet you can guess what happened all night. It involved him and me being completely naked again and expressing so much love, passion, and sex through our bodies. It was a wild night. I just hope no one heard us over night.
The chapter originally had the Sword of Hades in it. But I decided that since I'm correcting some mistakes through this story, I'd alter some things as well to make it a little better. The Sword of Olympus I got from the 'God of War' video games. If you all prefer the Sword of Hades version, I'm sorry if replacing it hurts you. But I just think that the Sword of Olympus makes a lot more sense for this story. I just wish I'd thought of this a lot sooner or instead of the Sword of Hades. Oh, well. I'll just move on and finish editing this story.
