Earth - Present Day

Since Percy left to explore the cosmos, much has changed on Olympus. Zeus has become less paranoid and hasn't killed a single demigod for being too powerful. He has become much more faithful to Hera, only having strayed once in the past two hundred years and that was on a day where he and Hera had a big fight. He went out got drunk and a woman took advantage of him and practically raped him. The moment he woke up the next morning he regretted it and he told Hera immediately instead of trying to hide it like he would have done before. When the woman got pregnant, Zeus watched over the boy as much as he could and sent the boy to camp as soon as he could. He has become a much better and just ruler and has made great progress on repairing the relationship between him and his brothers. Mainly because they all bonded over their care for one demigod who now was all their sons, Percy Jackson.

Hera was in a much better mood then 200 years ago. Because of Zeus' increased fidelity she was happy than she had been in a long time. He had only slipped up once in 200 years and that was when he was drunk and the bitch practically raped him in his weakened state. (A/N: Hera's words, not mine. Sorry people, she has quite the temper.) Hera had to admit she was not without blame in the incident. She had gotten mad over something Heracles had done and yelled at Zeus for fathering him in the first place.

Their argument got way out of hand and it drove Zeus to the bar where she was waiting. She was happy because the moment he woke up and realized what happened, he came to her and told her what he did. he immediately took responsibility for his actions, something he had never done before in all his long life. Hera might dislike demigods because they usually symbolized infidelity, which was anathema to her domain if marriage, she did have a demigod she cared for as a son. She used to not care for him but after she saw how he brought her family together, she began to care for him and wish she had been better to him than she was. Percy Jackson. She wished he would return because she was sure that his return would only further the positive change in her family.

Poseidon had had a difficult time for the last 200 years. After his wife divorced him and his son disowned him, his favorite child had been tortured and driven from the planet. For the first few years, he had been a wreck and was hardly ever sober enough to rule Atlantis the way he used to. But one day the most unexpected thing happened. He was stumbling down the street towards the Empire State Building when he collapsed. But just before he hit the ground a pair of hands grabbed him. He woke up in a bed with Athena of all people nursing him back to health. After he was clean and sober for the first time in a long time he and Athena had a long talk and they put aside their differences. They decided it was time to stop hating each other for a competition and rivalry from thousands of years ago. They pair became great friends and eventually more. The most tense council meeting since the punishment of Liam was the one where Poseidon revealed to Zeus that he was dating his daughter and asked his permission for her hand in marriage.

Not long ago he would have attacked Poseidon for this but he had grown closer to his brother and due to Hera's influence he gave his blessing and released Athena from her oath of maidenhood. The two had been married for a little over 150 years and neither had had a demigod child since, but there was a small godling running around the halls of Atlantis. Just weeks ago, Athena had given birth to a healthy baby girl. She had blonde hair that fell naturally in the form of princess curls and a hauntingly beautiful face. Athena was sure that her daughter would have many suitors. but the most captivating feature of the young girl were her eyes, they were Sea green with fleas of shining grey, and every so often when the girl was thinking hard, her eyes would flash grey for just a second before returning to their normal form. All in all, she was easily reminiscent of her late sibling Annabeth. Since getting married Poseidon and Athena were both happy.

Demeter hadn't changed much but was much happier because Hades released Persephone from her forced visitations to the underworld but now that she wasn't forced to be there, she enjoyed her time there much more. Ares was the same pig headed jerk he used to be. Apollo had matured in the last two centuries. He still had demigods but much less than he used to. He only ever entered into relationships when he truly cared for the woman and when the woman got pregnant, he would stay as long as he could before he was literally dragged away from them. Because of these changes, his and Artemis' relationship was on the mend and Apollo was extremely happy to be getting closer with his sister again. Artemis and her hunt was doing good. Since she learned what happened to Percy Jackson and how she judged hm prematurely, she was more wary i her judgements. Sure, she still loathed man whores like Ares and Hermes, but she was now aware that there were some decent men out there too.

Though Artemis was sure that none of them could even come close to a certain devilishly handsome raven hair demigod. She also had come to grips with the fact that she had feelings for a certain demigod son of Poseidon. For a long time, she had wrestled with her feelings but she finally accepted them telling herself that if he was to like a man, it would at least be the only good man out there. Apollo knew of her feelings and he said for all that it matters or if she cares, he approves. Hermes is still the same old man he used to be. Aphrodite was still as much a whore as when Percy left, if not more seeing as in the last 200 years there was not a single time longer than 2 days when she was not pregnant with a demigod and sometimes she would split into two bodies and they would both be pregnant. She had so many kids that thy had to build another Aphrodite cabin to accommodate the influx. Dionysius was the same pompous douchebag he was 200 years ago. Hephaestus hadn't changed much either and still preferred his automatons to humans. Hestia was perfect just the way she was and thankfully she didn't change. Hades though, Hades was much happier.

With his wife spending more time in the under world voluntarily he was the happiest he had ever been and since he could spend as much time as he wanted with his son Nico since he was a god now, the god of the under world had come out of his shell quite a lot in the last 2 centuries. While many things had changed, sometimes old habits still prevailed. Today was one of those days. Zeus had called a meeting because a huge power surge had been felt on earth before it disappeared and it had all the gods worried. The amount of power felt dwarfed the power held by an Olympian and any one who had that much power could be a real threat to Olympus. Thankfully since Zeus' paranoia had decreased in recent years he was not demanding that they kill the person immediately just to find them and ask them to come to Olympus to see if they were a threat and if they were to go from there. Zeus spoke up, "What has me worried is we have no idea who this could be.

There are not that many people who have this level of power and none of them are friends of Olympus as far as i remember. Does anyone have any idea who this could be?" all the gods, even Athena shook their heads when a new voice spoke up from what seemed to be the middle of the room, even though there was no one there, "I think i know who it is you are looking for." the voice said. Zeus stood up, "Who dares interrupt a council meeting? And furthermore, if you know who it is we are looking for, tell us already and be done with it." The voice chuckled, "I dare to interrupt a council meeting because i thought you would want to know who you were looking for and i thought some of you might be happy to see me. Furthermore, as to who you are looking for that is simple. Me." a form rose up from the middle of the throne room between the gods and solidified into a 6' 4" figure. As his features came into focus, the first thing they notice was his raven black hair and the second was his sea green eyes that positively bubbled with mirth. Percy Jackson smiled and said in a sing song voice, "Hey guys. IIIIIIII"MMMMMMMMM HOOOOOMMMMEEEE!"

All the gods stared at him for a second before the three brother and Hestia all rushed forward and took turn greeting their son. After a few minutes of hugging all around the gods all returned to their seats and waited fo an explanation. Percy asked, "Is it alright if i sit down? This might take a while and my feet hurt." Zeus nodded and was about to summon him a chair when a Lazy Boy recliner appeared behind Percy and he sat down. When he sat down the Olympians felt a surge of power for a second before it disappeared. Percy smiled, "sorry about that. This chair is designed to act like your thrones so it gives me a boost in power while i sit in it." Zeus was surprised at this, "where did you get the throne Percy? and how are you so powerful? Are you a god now, because even a partially immortal demigod with some of our blessings should not be this powerful." Percy smiled at his uncle turned adoptive father, "I will get to that but first let me clarify some things. After i left earth i learned that the rest of the universe is split up in 15 sections or as they are called Quadrants. Thing of the universe as a giant sphere and it is divided up in 15 parts. a smaller sphere in the center is the Chaos Quadrant and is governed by Chaos even though he also is in charge of all the rest and that is the quadrant that Earth is in. The other 4 quadrants are assigned to be governed by a primordial and hold the name of said primordial. the 14 primordials and Chaos make up the Primordial council and they rule the rest of the universe except for Earth. For a long time, they have had missing members because Gaea, Tartarus and Nyx were here on Earth, with Gaea slumbering, Tartarus condemned to his pit and Nyx to her mansion.

See, long ago they were cursed and because of it, darkness, hatred and evil grew in hearts until a hero could save them by traversing the pit or the mansion of night and coming out sane. I did this and freed them from their curse and let them return to their family even tough i did not know it at the time." Athena piped up at this, "You mean that when we face Gaea, she only did what she did because she was cursed?" Percy nodded, "Yes. She is actually a nice lady once you get to know her. Well, i just wanted to explain the situation to you. Well, after i left earth i bought some awesome equipment with the cash cards you gave me and went to the Chronos Quadrant. A quadrant that hold the name of a primordial takes on a unique characteristic of sad primordial. In the Chronos Quadrant, every planet has a different time dilatation faster meaning that time passes differently on each of the planets. I spent 300 years on one of these planets mastering my powers for you guys before i started exploring the universe. I explored the universe and ran into each member of the primordial council individually before i returned to the Chronos system to train some more." Athena had another question, "Why would you do that? you had already mastered your powers. why would you need more training?"

Percy smirked, "Why, i needed it because every time i ran into a primordial i would either convince them to give me their blessing or win it from them in a competition. I had mastered the powers i got from you, but i needed to master the powers i got from 14 primordial blessings. I spent a long time in the Chronos Quadrant mastering my powers before i left and did something rather spectacular to get Chaos' attention." Zeus perked up at this, "You did something dramatic? What did you do?" Percy smiled, "Why, i wiped out an army that would have taken a huge part of his army to defeat single handedly in a couple hours of course." Ares smiled at this, "How large was the army, Punk? at least tell me it was a large one?" Percy nodded, "It was pretty big. Around 17.5 million soldiers strong if i remember correctly." Everyone, even Ares paled at this. Ares asked, "you killed 17.5 million trained soldiers by yourself in a couple of hours?"

Percy nodded, "Yeah, it wasn't that hard actually if you use your brain. It was a pretty decent work out, though i was disappointed they didn't put up much of a fight, so trained might be a stretch." Athena, who still looked a bit pale, ask, "Why would you do it though?" Percy replied, "I wanted to get Chaos' attention and i figured by defeating an enemy and saving the lives of his men was good way to ingratiate my self to him. It was and i joined his Army and became an Agent of Chaos. Because of this i was given the blessing of Chaos and the ability to choose a squad to accompany me on missions. We trained in the Chronos Quadrant for a ling time, even though it just felt like a day to the rest of the universe and spent have spent the last 990 years defeating the threats that are too dangerous for the Chaos' regular army to handle." At then was intrigued by his statement, "You said you have been doing this for 990 years. How is that possible since it has only been 204 years since you left."

Percy nodded gravely, "It has only been 204 years here on earth. about a hundred of your earth years ago, there was a fluctuation in the time field around Earth that slowed time down around it making 1 earth year the equivalent to 10 years for everyone else. So, the past 99 years for you has been 990 for me." Athena nodded, "What caused this though? Things like this don't just happen." Percy grimaced, "Yes, i was getting to that. The was Chaos explained it to me is this. around 100 years ago, aided by an unknown power, Kronos reformed and since then has been exerting all his power to slow down time around Earth for some strange reason. the only plus is that it takes so much energy that he is in a vegetative state and even when he stops slowing down time, it would take him years to be able to move again. What i am trying to say is that there is another war coming against a super powerful being and i am here to help." The entire council paled even further at the implications of this information before Athena asked, "Don't get me wrong, i am happy you are here to help, but what can you do about it? you are just one man, how can you turn the tide in this war?"

Percy shook his head, "Did you not hear what i have been saying step mother? I have the blessing of 11 Olympians, 14 Primordials, and Chaos himself. I am a son of 4 of the 6 children of Rhea and Kronos, as well as the son of 2 primordials and the successor and prince of three domains. i have trained and practiced for thousands of years and have wiped out armies numbering in the hundreds of millions single handedly. I have fought countless wars and have always come out on top. Besides, i am not only one man. i am bringing some friends." Athena seemed surprised at this statement, "I have several questions for you Percy. First, who are the two primordials that adopted you? Second, What three domains are you the prince and successor of? How old are you? How did you know i am your step mother? and finally, who are your friends that you are bringing?" Percy smiled, "after they apologized for what they did to me, i was adopted by Gaea and Tartarus who are both rally nice people now that hey are free from their curse. I am the Prince of the Seas, of Poseidon's Domain but i am also the prince of Earth, Gaea's domain and the Pit, Tartarus' domain. I am 4013 years old, i am bringing my hand picked squad to fight with me and i knew you are my step mom because even though i have not been on earth, i have watched each and every one of you. I was not going to abandon you so i wanted to be able to keep updated on your lives even if i couldn't be here."

Everyone smiled at this because it sounded just like Percy. Zeus spoke up, "Why don't you bring your squad here, we would love to meet them." Percy laughed at this, "Oh, you have already met all of them at one time or another. But i will be happy to reintroduce you." Percy snapped his fingers and 20 hooded people appeared standing at ease in 4 rows of five. Percy saluted and they followed suit before he spoke up, "All right. the Olympians have requested to meet you. I will make the introductions but lets keep the laughing at their reactions to a minimum shall we?" there was a resounding 'Yes sir!' before Percy motioned for the first soldier to step forward, "When i formed this squad i convince the primordials to give each member partial immortality and have a willing primordial give them a blessing, So i will tell you who they are and what primordial blessed them. I believe you will recognize most if not all of them as they are all from Earth, but i give you this warning, not all of you will like everyone in the squad but they have fought along side me for almost 1000 years and we trained for 1000 years before that and in all the times and wars we have fought, we have never lost anyone. This is just to explain how formidable an enemy they will be if you cross them, so i would advise putting aside all old grudges for the sake of everyone's safety. This first member was a hero of the second titan war, and he sacrificed himself to sink the Princess Andromeda to give us enough time to rally and defend Manhattan and Olympus. I give you Charles Beckendorf, Son of Hephaestus and champion of Tartarus!"

Beckendorf pulled down his hood and everyone in the room gasped and Hephaestus said, "Is it really you, son?" Beckendorf nodded, "Yeah, it's me dad." The forge god smiled at his son and gave Percy a thankful smile. Hades cleared his throat, "Excuse me, but how is he here? His soul is still in Elysium." Percy smiled, "That was one of the perks of the job. I got to choose my own team, but i had to choose from those who were dead so as not to raise suspicion why heroes were disappearing from the Earth. Chaos made duplicates of their souls so no one would notice they were missing." Hades nodded, "Well, if the creator of the universe approves of this, there is not much i could do about even if i wanted to, which i don't. If i were to reclaim their souls, you would just find them and take them again anyway." Percy nodded, "You got that right. Next, i give you another Hero from the second Titan war. A woman who sacrificed her life to bring the Ares cabin to fight and fought a drakon. I give you Silena Beauregard, Daughter of Aphrodite and Champion of Eros."

Aphrodite ran up to her daughter squealing at almost inhuman pitch after Silena revealed herself before returning to her throne. She beamed at her daughter all throughout the rest of the introductions. Next we have another hero from the battle against Kronos, A friend who sacrificed his life so that others may live. I give you Michael Yew, Son of Apollo and Champion of Aether." Apollo shot me and his son a megawatt smile that could have powered New York for a year and outside the sun got a lot brighter. Scientists wondered for years afterward why the sun got so much bright for about five minutes that day, and if i am not mistaken, several papers and dissertation ions were written about it. "Next is a man who was originally on the wrong side of the titan war but at the end sacrificed his life to aid me in my fight Against Kronos, only to be killed by the titan king. I give you Ethan Nakamura, Son of Nemesis and Champion of Ananke."

There were some gasps around the room but no one said anything, but a certain wisdom goddess had a theory as to who was next. "I give you the final person who fought in the Second Titan war. He made many mistakes along the way, but he has more than made up for it by defending the universe for a millennia, i give you Luke Castellan, Son of Hermes and Champion of Chronos, the Primordial of Time." Hermes ran up and gave his son a hug and Luke returned whole heartedly. Over the years, Percy had helped Luke come to terms with his dad and the fact that he couldn't be there for him despite how much he loved his children. Zeus cleared his throat, "Percy, this person hosted the titan king and fought against Olympus. How can we trust him?" Percy replied, "If you don't trust him, Trust me. I trust him with my life and swear to you that he would never betray me or you." Zeus nodded and Percy continued his introductions, "These next few heroes need no more introduction as i believe they are all known by you. I give you Achilles, Son of Thetis and Champion of Pontus, Odysseus Champion of Ananke, Theseus, Son of Poseidon and Champion of Pontus, Perseus, Son of Zeus and Champion of Ouranos, Aeneas, Son of Venus and Champion of Eros, Bellerophon, Son of Poseidon and Champion of Pontus, Jason, Son of Zeus and Champion of Ouranos, Romulus and Remus, Twin sons of Mars and Champions of Erebus, And the Former Amazonian Queens Hippolyta and Penthesilea, Daughters of Ares and Champions of Nyx."

All the legendary heroes lowered their hoods and spent the next few minutes being greeted by their parents and allies and burying the hatchet with old adversaries. After everyone settled back down Percy continued saying, "I have four last reintroductions left. When i was looking for People to fill my ranks, i thought who better than someone trained in stealth and fighting to do it with. I give you Atalanta, Phoebe, Daughter of Ares, and Bianca Di Angelo, Daughter of Hades, and Champions of Aether." the three huntresses lowered their hoods and were greeted by a big hug from Artemis who was ecstatic to see some of her old hunters again. Percy waited before giving his last introduction, "Finally, we have my second in command. The person whom with out i would be dead anytime over and the best fighter in the unit except for me. She is also the only person besides me to have more than one primordial blessing and believe me, she has earned it. I give you Zoe Nightshade, Second on Command of the Reborn Warriors, Daughter of Atlas and Champion of Aether and Nyx." Percy had the wind knocked out of him upon receiving a flying tackle of a hug from the Goddess of the Hunt. "Thank you, Percy. Thank you for bringing her back, i felt so lost without my best friend."

Artemis let go of Percy after a minute and gave Zoe, who was barely able to contain her laughter from the look on Percy's face, a big hug. While they were hugging, Percy fiddled with one of the rings on his fingers to alleviate the awkward tension he was feeling, and the movement did not go un noticed by Athena. After the pair extracted from each other Athena asked, "What are those rings on your fingers? I don't remember you being one for jewelry or anything ostentatious before you left. Are you married or something?" All 20 of the Reborn Warriors snickered at that and Zoe openly laughed before Percy Answered, "No i am not married, as you can see the rings are on the wrong finger for that. The rings were a gift from a friend along the way that i have taken to wearing." Athena examined the rings closely, they were both gold of the purest kind and the only difference were the gems inlaid in the rings. They were both the darkest obsidian anyone had ever seen that could have made Hades drool, but one seemed to suck the light out of the surrounding air and the other had a small set of purple scales floating in the gem. While Athena was admiring the rings Aphrodite asked, "A gift from a friend? Do you mean girlfriend?" she asked, giving him a suggestive eyebrow wiggle. Percy blushed and replied, "No, Aphrodite. I don not mean girlfriend. I have not had any romantic relations since i left Earth." Achilles and Jason laughed at this before not to quietly whispering, "Not for lack of effort, though." Artemis perked up at this, "And what does that mean Perseus? I hope that the only acceptable my in my eyes has not been corrupted during the last few thousand years you have lived." Percy was extremely flustered at this and tried to respond but couldn't because of all the stammering, much to the amusement of the Reborn Warriors. Zoe decided to save him further embarrassment by saying, "That is not what they meant, Milady. What they meant is that Percy has become sort of the most eligible bachelor to most of the women who know of his existence. Many have at one time or another tried to pursue a relationship with him, including Nyx and several other female primordials only to be rebuffed every time. This has led many to think that his heart already belongs to someone, but no one really knows except Percy and he refuses to say."

Artemis nodded seeming happy with this explanation and that a male had kept it in his pants for thousand of years despite being surrounded by willing partners. Aphrodite perked up at the end of what Zoe said before turning her eyes towards Percy and asking, "Is that true? Does your heart already belong to someone, or are you just playing hard to get?" Percy glared at Zoe for bringing this up. She was the one person that knew of his true feelings. He had been able to hide it from even Eros, but Zoe could still read him like a book, and the object of his affection gave her no end of amusement. Percy flushed before replying, "Yes, my heart belongs to someone already and I did not want to insult anyone by entering into a half hearted relationship. That is why i have abstained from any kind of romance for the past 4 millennia." Aphrodite and everyone else gasped at this, and Artemis seemed pleased that he would stay faithful to whoever held his heart even if they weren't actually together. Something occurred to Aphrodite that she had to confirm, "If i understand what you are saying correctly, that means you are still a vir…" She did not get any further before Percy cut her off, "Yes, I am. Not that i see how that matters. So, can we please move on from my non existent love life and get down to business?"

Everyone nodded vehemently. Zoe chuckled as she saw the beaming face of Artemis at what had just been revealed. She was the only one who knew that Percy had fallen Head over Heels in love with Artemis. She was both happy and sad at this, she was happy because she knew he was the only man who would ever be worthy of Artemis' affections and sad because if she was being honest with herself she had a crush on Percy but knew it would never go anywhere because of his fatal flaw. He had given his heart and soul to Artemis and his loyalty would never allow any deviation from full throttle devotion to the goddess. Percy spoke up breaking her out of her revery, "We need to prepare for the war. We need to train the demigods so i have devised up a plan. 9 members of my squad will go to Camp Jupiter to train the Romans. This squad will obviously contain Romulus, Remus and Aeneas for obvious reasons. Another 9 will go to Camp Half-Blood to train the greeks, including the former campers and Achilles. The two former queens of the Amazons will prepare the amazons." Athena nodded, "This sounds like a good plan. But where will you go and even with your training, i doubt this will be enough to fight the war. What will we do if we need more forces?" Percy smiled at her, "Well, i have a plan if we need more forces. As prince of the Pit, i have a large amount of control over monsters, and many of them will listen to me and fight with us weakening their forces and strengthening ours. Plus, while i was away, i created a version of the hunters but that patrol the universe to hunt monster and keep balance that i can call on if needed. It was a birthday gift to Zoe, but it evolved from there." Athena looked confused, "How was this a gift for Zoe?"

Percy smiled, "See, the Galactic Hunt, as i call them, is made up of every hunter of Artemis that ever fell in battle, so that whenever she can or wants to she can see and hunt with her former sisters. They all bare a minor blessing from Nyx making them quite skilled in stealth and speed." It took several minutes before Artemis stopped crying tears of joy and released Percy from another giant hug that left him gaping like a guppy. Afterwards Athena said, "You did not answer my other question Percy. Where will you go?" Percy nodded, "I was going to say earlier that i don't think it is wise for me to return to either camp unless absolutely necessary, because there are too many bad memories there and even though i have accepted what happened to me, something or someone there might trigger a violent reaction from me and i do not want to do something i regret." Ares scoffed, "What could you do that is so bad, kid? You don't look like you could do much damage, even when your angry." Percy's eyes flared with power and a suffocating aura of power smothered the Olympians until they started bleeding out of their noses and Ares started bleeding out of his eyes as well before Percy fiddled with he ring on his left hand and it disappeared. "That was a demonstration of just how powerful i am, and that was not even my full power. I cannot control my self when i give myself over to the anger, as over the years i have had to surprise certain emotions and memories to keep sane and from becoming a mean vindictive asshole. After a while, a sort of alter ego developed. I am Percy, a happy go lucky, laid back kind of guy, but if you mess with me and make me too angry i become Perseus, The Destroyer. The man who can single handedly decimated armies of hundreds of millions of highly trained soldiers in a matter of hours.

Once i give myself over to the pain, anger, vengeance and the bloodlust it is extremely hard to get me out. The time before last Chaos himself had to stop me since i singlehandedly beat the entire primordial council." Everyone paled and Athena asked, "And last time?" Percy replied, albeit reluctantly, "Chaos tried to stop me, but i overpowered him, so he transported me to empty planet and let me vent. Unfortunately, planets are not meant to sustain that kind of damage, so it kind of imploded." the entire council was shook up by this and the Reborn Warriors broke out in cold sweat because they had witnessed the devastation caused by Perseus. Percy turned to Ares, "So, i would recommend raining in that aura of hate and anger before you unleash the monster within. And don't call me kid. I am older than you and every other council member. Since the greek empire was in power in the 8th century BC, giving a few centuries wiggle room the oldest of you is around 3000 years old and I am 4013 years old meaning i am 1000 years older than any of you and much more for some of you. I have thousands of years of experience and almost all of it has been spent fighting, i am by no means a kid, short stuff." Ares growled at that but shut up after a glare from Percy made him wet himself. Percy continued, "As i was saying before i was interrupted by Ares, i shouldn't return to camp unless necessary and i will not be going to the Amazons, so with Artemis' permission, i would like to help train the hunt and prepare them for the war."

Artemis seemed surprised at this but answered, "As long as you promise not to flirt of hit on anyone my hunters then it shouldn't be a problem." Percy made the promise and everyone was about to leave to their respective posts when Athena spoke up, "Percy, Why didn't you choose Annabeth for your squad? She would have been a valuable asset." Percy flinched at the question and he turned to her, "There were extenuating circumstances and reasons why i could not bring her back." Athena blazed at his half answer, "What? Did you not love her enough to bring her back? Did you even fight for her or when Chaos said no did you turn over and obey like a dog?" A wave of concussive force blew every single person in the throne room 10 feet back from Percy and he walked over to Athena, "Now, why did you go and have to provoke me like that? Did you not listen to what i told Ares just moments ago? This is exactly the kind of thing that that makes my other side come out to play. I am just barely keeping him in check now. And t answer your question, i fought tooth and nail to bring her back but Chaos said no time and time again. I told them i didn't plan on bringing her back to alleviate suspicion and then snuck down to the underworld and fought my way to Elysium only to have her tell me to let her move on. When i went back again, she had already undergone the process to being reborn and it was to late to try again. At least you are lucky enough to have a relationship with her now, she doesn't even know me and it pains me to watch her and not be able to talk with my Wise Girl which is another reason i have kept my distance." Athena widened her eyes, "You mean she was reborn as…" Percy nodded, "As your and Poseidon's daughter." With that Percy walked over to Artemis and they flashed to the hunters camp.

Percy And Artemis appeared a few feet away from the camp and they walked toward the hunters together. Artemis entered the clearing a little before him and as soon as the hunter saw him, they sent a barrage of arrows at his face. Percy wasn't't fazed by this as he held up his hand and the arrows stopped mid air before falling to the ground. One of the older hunter grumbled, "Milady, can we dispose of this male trash? He obviously was trying to sneak up and take advantage of you." Artemis looked disapprovingly at her hunters before replying, "No you may not harm him in any way. He was not trying to sneak up on me, he was following me to the camp. He is here to help train us for the upcoming war." The hunters seemed surprised at this before one asked, "Who is he to teach us? I bet our youngest recruit could handle him as easy as could be." Percy bristled at this but before he could respond Artemis said, "Girls, he is a highly skilled warrior that has fought and trained for thousands of years, and he is deserving of our respect." The first hunter scoffed again, "He can't be that skilled since he is a male. He probably hid near the back of the army he was in and took credit for other peoples work." Percy couldn't keep himself from responding and when he did it came out in a steely cold voice that sent shivers down the spine of all those present, "Be careful how you talk about people. Make no mistake, you are by no means the most powerful or dangerous between the two of us. I have decimated armies of millions single handedly and none of them were as rude and sexist as you are being right now. But, i mean you no harm. I will give you respect and never lift a finger against any of you unless in training or challenged."

The hunter was about to respond when a Girl walked out of her tent and gaped at Percy before asking in a quiet voice, "Percy?" Percy turned and smiled at his cousin and said, "Hey Thunder Thighs. How ya been?" Thalia rushed forward and looked like she was about to hug him when she punched him as hard as she could in the face with a lightning coated fist only to have him not react in the slightest and for her hand to make a sickening crunch. She gasped as her hand bent the wrong way and he grabbed her arm and healed her using his powers before laughing, "That is what you get for punching people without waiting for their explanation. A lot of things have happened in since i have been gone, including my near invulnerability. Another is that i am older than you now, so thats new." Thalia scoffed, "Yeah, i know you are like 222 years old and i am still just shy of 16. I get it. It gets kind of old having that pointed out to me again and again." Percy laughed again, "No you misunderstand me. I am not 222 years old, far from it. And i am not only older than you, but older than Artemis as well. See, because there are some places where time flows differently in the universe i am 4013 years old." Thalia looked chocked at this revelation and they spent the night talking about his adventures and her hunts and having a grand old time and neither noticed the evil smirks on the faces of the other hunters.

Time Skip —6 months—

In some ways the hunt had come a long way in the past 6 months, and in others they were the same if not worse. Training wise, they were better then they had ever been and near impossible to beat except by Percy or Artemis who could do it with ease. And after 6 months of hard work and dedication, you would think that the hunt would start to accept him, but you would be wrong. They kept up a good facade and acted like they accepted him around Artemis and Thalia but when they weren't around it was a different story. They tortured and pranked him mercilessly. He had invulnerable skin, so it never left a mark but that did not mean he didn't feel the pain from everything that did to him and he would never strike back no matter how bad it got, mostly because it would anger Artemis and he did not want to cause his object of undying affection any grief. They had set a bear on him and the time after that it was a stampede of deer. Both of the animals were Artemis' sacred animals, so any injury to them would be a person insult to the goddess.

They had led him into bear traps and poisoned his food with highly painful but not deadly poisons and while he couldn't die by poison, that did not mean it didn't hurt when it was in his system. They hand hung him upside down, dropped him in a 20 foot pit and even dipped him in pigs blood and literally thrown him to the wolves. He bore all this with a smile and ever let either Thalia or Artemis know because he knew that it would only make things worse. The final straw was approaching swiftly though and it came on a beautiful Friday afternoon. Percy was on a walk through the forest to avoid the hunters when he heard a click and before he knew what happened he was chained to a tree. The hunter walked out from their hiding places and smirked at him. The leader of the band, a veil little bitch named Sara, said, "We took special care in setting this up. This chains are a mix of celestial bronze and Chaotic Silver built specially by Hephaestus to trap immortals and keep them from using their powers and they were blessed by Chaos to make them even stronger. I found them on a hunt a long time ago and kept them for just such an occasion." They began to taunt him, to remind his of all his shortcomings and all the things that he regretted and felt guilty over, but what really broke him was when Sara said, "Before you ran away from earth like the coward you are, they say that your girlfriend died. Did you use her, take her virtue and then when you were done with her kill her like the filthy male you are? Did you enjoy killing a strong woman? did it make you feel powerful?"

Percy's eyes flared with power and his rings disappeared. He spoke quietly, "You made a grave mistake in bringing these things up. You have stirred the beast and you will not like the consequences." Sara laughed, "You are still in those chains. Not even Chaos himself could break out if those." Percy smiled evilly, "Oh, but while that may be true, you forgot one thing." Sara looked smug, "Oh yeah? and what is that?" Percy continued to smile and said, "Oh, why, that i am stronger than Chaos. Especially when i am angry and you have made me very angry." He snapped the chains like they were made out of hot butter and walked towards the hunters and released his aura completely, letting them know exactly how powerful he was. The hunter were bleeding profusely form the ears, nose and eyes before he reigned in his power, "You have no idea what you have brought upon yourselves. I could snap my fingers and either cause you internally combust and burn from the inside out or send you to Tartarus where my father would personally torture you for all eternity. I can hear him asking me to do it right now, but i am not going to do that. I am going to deal with you myself."

He started walking towards them when two silver flashes appeared in front of him in the form of Artemis and Thalia. Artemis asked him why he was doing this and he showed her the memories of what they did to him and after getting over her horror, she tried to convince him to spare her hunters, but to no avail. "I need to vent my anger somewhere, and where better than the bitches who caused it." Artemis told his that a humongous monster army was amassing in the barren wasteland that was the Sahara Desert. He smiled, "Ok, that will work. Let me do this by myself. You can watch if you want, but i am doing this by myself." He flashed himself, Thalia and Artemis to where the army was and before them was amassed an army of billons of monsters. Obviously a power spell had been cast to expand the size of the desert or there was no way it could hold this many monsters. Artemis paled, "There is no way you can defeat them, even with an army. Stop this and come back to the hunt." He grinned at her, "Watch me." He stomped his foot and a barrier of energy surrounded the entire army to make it so that none could escape. He flashed under the barrier but when Artemis tried to accompany him, she found that she couldn't. She watched as two swords seemingly appeared in his and out of nowhere. One of them was as black as night with little white dots orbiting around it, and the the other was the whitest white Artemis had ever seen. She could feel the power roll of them in waves and it made her lightheaded at the huge amount of it there was.

Percy gave the swords a few experimental twirls and then charged the army. Assign as he reached the first line, he made a Giant slash with both blades causing a wave of energy to shoot out of the end and decimate thousands of monsters. He became a whirlwind of death, not even thinking about his moves simply acting purely on instinct. Duck and slice, jump and stab, roll and parry, flip and slash, he carried on for hours letting out all his anger at the hunters, the campers, Liam, everything. He hated all the horrible things that happened to him and he jut wanted peace. He needed to stop all the fighting. After several more hours of fighting he had released all hi Sanger but half the army was still alive. He gather his energy in him and let it out in a massive concussive blast that went 500 yards in every direction. When the dust settled, Artemis saw something she would never forget.
