Percy Jackson and the sword of Chaos

Chapter 8

When the apartment exploded it caught fire, which was a big mistake for that man since I control fire. I willed it to stay out of the way of all of the mortals while I helped them out.

I was about to grab a little mortal girl that looked about 8 when I felt a cold hand grab me by the neck. The man lifted me up by the neck and I kicked his crown jewels.

He bent over double, shouted a few curses at me and threw a ball of darkness at me. I quickly uncapped riptide and I blocked the darkness with both of my swords but they flew out of my hand.

Suddenly I got an idea. I willed some of the fire to form a sword in my hands. I willed the fire to stay in the sword shape and I jabbed at his unprotected left side. I got lucky and scared his left side and instead of disintegrating or red blood or golden ichor flowing out silver blood leaked onto the carpet.

I was looking shocked but then he formed a ball of Earth in his hands and threw it at me. My sword cracked and the ball of earth flew right into my chest taking my breath away.

Then the man exploded in a ray of darkness so dark that I had to shield my eyes.

I quickly grabbed the mortal girl and used riptide to get a piece of the silver blood covered carpet.

I fire travelled the mortal girl outside the building and after being thanked by the mortals for an hour I fire travelled to Olympus.

I walked up to the throne room door and I heard a lot of shouting. I heard Zeus boom;

"He is too powerful!"

Then I heard Poseidon say;

"Leave him be!"

I heard Hestia trying to calm everyone down and then there was silence.

I knocked on the door and after about thirty seconds I heard Zeus grumble;

"Come in."

I walked inside the throne room to see all fourteen Olympians staring at me. Zeus with a look of annoyance, Hestia with a look of happiness, Poseidon with a look of Happiness and everyone else was looking emotionless.

"What is it, young hero?" Zeus said.

"Well when I was hunting the manticore a strange man attacked me. He was tall and slim, and had great power over shadows and earth."

Everyone looked at Hades.

"I swear on the river Styx that I have not fathered any children since Nico and Bianca!" He retaliated.

Thunder boomed outside sealing the oath.

'Well he must be a child of Gaia." Athena butted in.

I pulled out the piece of carpet that was in my pocket. "When I got lucky and slashed his side silver blood poured out." I said.

Everyone gasped. Then Hephaestus said;

"Perseus that is the blood of a primordial!"

"So…" Athena said. "He must be a child of a Primordial god of darkness; it couldn't be Nyx because she is a girl, so that leaves… Erebus."
