Chptr 6

Once entered into the hall Ryan was struck by an amazing feeling of joy, excitement and an overall feeling of peace. "Wow. this is what it's like to be here." he paused and sighed with amusement. "I'm actually in Heaven."

"Well a portion." Gabriella said "Here is where all the souls of men and women and even animals who've lived honorable lives await their judgement. The others await behind that door." She pointed to a door far on the other side of the massive white hall. Ryan noticed a gigantic golden statue of a man he assumed to be an angel because he had wings. It had to be at least 50 feet tall with very detailed features. It looked so life-like He was shocked it didn't turn his gaze on him as he walked by. As he did so though he noticed it carried a large broad-sword the was clearly double edged. And at his hip was a long coil of chains obviously made from a dark metal.

"Another of my brothers." Gabriella said suddenly right next to him.

"Michael." Ryan knew he'd once read a book about the Archangels before. It was about all classes of angels but he took specific care in reading about the Archangels. They seemed to somehow show out more than the others.

"Yes indeed probably the most popular of us all. The conqueror of...The Fallen One." The Angel replied.

"The Fallen One? As in Sa-"

"DO NOT speak his name here!" She cut him off with a shrill whisper that sounded like the deafening roar of the sea during a storm. She went from her once calm demeanor to looking hysterical and a strong look of fear in her eyes. This lasted only a mere second but to him felt like a lifetime of pain and fear rolled over him. Then he was no longer in the room of peace and happiness but he was now in a large room decorated for war. He was looking at a man with sea green eyes and dark hair. He couldn't have been more than 30 years old but his eyes showed the stress and also wisdom of one who has seen many years of pain, joy, and a mix of other experiences mainly Ryan couldn't explain how but he knew this man whoever he was has known war before and many times.

"I refuse to go on this mission Father." He heard a voice say and realized it was him speaking but it was not his voice. "He may be the key to the death or survival of Olympus but I will not take the life of one of my own. He's is still a demigod."

"Wrong my son, Zeus himself has asked you to save us. And you have the gall to deny your King?! After all we have done for you. Percy I'm appalled." The man looked angry enough to strike him but Ryan was no stranger to abusive parents. He knew what to expect if shit went sour.

"This child is no demigod either he is no child of a God worth believing in and he is a reincarnation of one who has threatened us before."

Wow this guy is upset kinda sounds scared, really scared, Ryan thought. Is he talking about...is this guy... wait.

"But dad-" The voice started

"POSEIDON!" a deep voice bellowed interrupted "Enough is enough I've had it with his insolence no more father son time with him. Either Percy Jackson follows his task or Annabeth Chase will suffer.

"NO! Leave her alone Zeus!" Percy's voice said. "I-" He sighed obviously defeated in his lost cause of an argument. He knew that when Zeus made a threat it wasn't just a threat it was a promise. A promise he was going to keep.

"I will hunt, capture, and bring Ryan Hunter to Zeus alive. I swear this oath with my life."

"It is done. I expect to have the boy before me no later than 4 months. He is the last reincarnation and once dealt with we shall be free of the Dark One's power.

Even Zeus won't say his name...maybe Satan is more of a threat than I thought.

Then everything began to fade. The next moment he was back in the hall. and Gabriella was speaking to him but it took awhile for him to hear what she was saying since his ears were still ringing from the bass and power of Zeus' voice.

"Ryan? Ryan? Hello aren't you hearing me?" Gabriella asked him concerned.

"Wait...you didn't hear or see any of that?" He said incredulously.

"Any of what? Did you see something?" She suddenly looked seriously worried. "Something like a vision of the future or something?"

"Not exactly the future...I don't think any way there was really no way to tell whether it was past, present, or future but I'm pretty sure it was most likely the present."

he thought a moment and chose his next words carefully."Can I ask you a question?"

"Absolutely."

"Well it's about the...Greeks"

"What about them?"

"Well specifically the Greek Gods."

"Yeah…" He looked her in the eyes when he said his next words

"Did they ever come into contact with...Sa...uh the uh Fallen One?"

"I think I know where this is coming from. You saw them didn't you? You saw their plans for you."

"Answer the question it's extremely important to my next possible question."

"Yes they did make contact it was a long time ago shortly after he'd fallen from grace."

"Tell me."

"Later. Please lets get to the Great Hall where you will meet the others."

"Tell me-wait others?" He replied. I'm... what am I….I don't even know anymore.
