Reyna: That was soo much fun!
Me: I knew that you would like it!
Percy: It was really cool, but what happened to…?
Me: Your mom has it.
Percy: *sighs in relief*
Reyna, whines: Percy, just tell me.
Percy and me: *grin*
Me: Reyna, you will find out soon, and you will love it!
Reyna: ….
I hope you enjoy this chapter!
Percy POV
"Reyna, this is not something random. It is one of Them!" I yelled, and Reyna drew her sword.
"Percy, once you defeat it, meet me at home! I can't be here without Them thinking I am a target!" Mom yelled, and she ran to the car, and drove home. I struggled to hold up against the force of the blade hitting my sword. Even Ares' blessing barely helped.
"Commander Ace, report." the person said in a freezing tone. Judging from that, I guessed it is a boy. Another person appeared.
"We have found them." that person said in a tone that was like magma, flowing over me, more dangerous than death. I think it would be a girl, and suddenly it hit me. If I ignored the harsh voices, I heard voices that stirred my memories. They suddenly stopped, and sheathed their weapons. I saw a familiar dagger, and a familiar gold sword. They lowered their hoods to reveal two faces, both once my best friends.
"Miss me much?" Annabeth sneered, and Jason smirked. I clenched my teeth, and instinctively, I moved in front of Reyna.
"You lay one finger on her, you die." I growled. The two just looked at each other, and laughed. Amused.
"You would think, Jackson, that you will defeat the daughter and son of Chaos?" Jason jeered. I closed my eyes, and Reyna did the same things. We called down bolts of lightning, striking both of them with heavy voltages. Their bodies arched as soon as the lightning bolt hit a certain spot on them. For Annabeth, it was her left elbow, for Jason, it was his right shoulder. Looks like the two took a dip in the Styx. Now I know where their only vulnerability is. They gave me a nasty look, and disappeared.
"We need to tell the Olympians. We should use our speed blessing." I said, we ran, all the way to the Empire State Building. I walked up to the desk.
"We need to talk to Lord Zeus. He is rising." I said, and the security guard's eyes widened. He gave me the key card, and we ran to the elevator, burst into Olympus, and ran into the throne room.
"Lord Zeus, we need a meeting." I panted, and he threw his lightning bolt. One by one, the gods started to assemble.
"What is the matter?" Zeus asked.
"Jason Grace and Annabeth Chase have betrayed us. They have joined forces with Him." Reyna said, startling all of the council. Athena and Zeus looked the most shocked.
"Two saviors of Olympus. I can't believe that they saved us, they betray us." Zeus said.
"Who said we were?" a voice asked, and Annabeth and Jason came to view. I turned to look back at them, and suddenly, according to what Reyna told me later, my eyes filled with sea green fire.
"Reyna, look at me, and then look at Percy. Who would be a better boyfriend?" Jason asked, looking at me with disgust.
"I choose Percy." Reyna said immediately grasping my hand. I was grateful for the physical touch, though I would deny it if anyone asked.
"Percy, look at me, then look at Reyna. Who do you choose? I know you would choose me." Annabeth asked, air of an over inflated ego. I glared at her, and I felt my eyes glow brighter.
"You do not have a choice to make my decisions." I snapped, and I glanced at Reyna, and her hands were flaming. Literally. The normally half relaxed hands were now dressed with amber fire, flickering, making shadows dance.
"Who said you choose Percy? I mean, look at me. I have slain more monsters than he has seen. I single handedly brought down Kiros, (AN: Is that correct? Please PM me if that is wrong ASAP. Thanks!) and saved the Roman version of the gods." Jason snapped.
"Well, Jason, I killed the Nemean Lion, Clazmonian sow, Kronos, saved Olympus twice, went through Tartarus, experienced more danger that you have faces, gone through the pain of losing my mother, faced breakup sorrow! Have you been to Tartarus?" I demanded, and they fell silent. After a moment, he responded.
"Well, Reyna was mine first, and she is still mine!" Jason yelled, and then, Reyna's rage exploded. Reyna closed her hands in a fist, and started to shake, purple flames engulfing her. She suddenly started glowing, a strong white glow that surrounded her body. That scared me, then, streams of light came out. I jumped back, terrified that Reyna might explode or something. All the Olympians stared in shock as I saw Reyna look more like a goddess. They then looked at me, and I felt different. I slowly started to look like a god. Strange. Someone then appeared. No, two people. No again, three people. Out of a portal of light emerged two titanesses, and one daughter of a titan. Rhea, Leto, and Calypso have been released. Well, Calypso has already been released, but who knew she could do that? I felt the Olympians eyes shift from me to the people who arrived.
The older Olympians, including Artemis and Apollo, came off their throne and morphed into little children, and ran to their mother. Calypso walked over to me, and I gave her an awkward hug.
"Percy, is this the Reyna I have been hearing about?" she asked, and I nodded. I stole a glance at Reyna, and she was faintly pink.
"Mom, what is the purpose of your visit?" a baby version of Zeus asked.
"He has risen, and we would like to warn you about it. He has convinced Nyx, Erebus, and the others to fight. There is not much choice that to try to kill him. From the Grove of Dodona, I have received a prophecy.
Enemies, once, will join
Combined to create
Fail to save ones who try
Win will be granted
None to all will fail
(AN: I am seriously terrible at making prophecies. The last few ones were created with the help of Dandelion~GriffinClaw's help. Please go check out her fanfictions, based on Harry Potter, called At the Wand.)
"This might be the darkest one yet." Rhea said, and all of us looked fearful. Reyna nudged me, and the Olympians were all discussing the prophecy, and I knew that this is the place we are not supposed to be. I ran out of the throne room, to the elevator, and Reyna was following me. We came down, and we got back to the apartment just as the clock read 8:30. Just barely made it.
"Mom!" I called, and Mom appeared.
"Percy, what happened?" she asked.
"Annabeth and Jason betrayed us." I said.
Reyna POV
I watched as Percy and Sally talk, and Sally gave Percy a small light purple box, said a few words, and Percy relaxed.
"Percy, I think we should get to bed. It is almost Christmas, and if we need to do an entire day of shopping for gifts, we need our energy." I said, sort of cutting in.
"Mom, should I take her to my room?" Percy asked, and I metal facepalmed. Sally nodded, and Percy lead the way.
"Reyna, how was ice skating?" Percy asked.
"It was hard at first, but soon, I began to feel like I am a natural skater."
"Only because I gave you some help!"
"Oh, be quiet." I laughed, and we entered his room. Surprisingly, it was very neat. A light blue bed was tucked in the corner, a desk sitting across from it, and a small dresser next to the closet.
"Together? Or do you want me to sleep on the floor?" Percy asked, a bit pink, embarrassed.
"Percy." I said, giving him my Are-you-serious look.
"Oh, together." he said, nodding. I pulled out my pajamas, ready to sleep.
"Percy, where is the bathroom?" I asked, and he pointed to what I had earlier assumed the bathroom.
Percy POV
I am so embarrassed, I can't believe that it is the second time I asked, and both time Reyna said yes. Oh jeez. This is going to be fun. Reyna returned, a small smile on her face.
"What's the smile?" I asked, a bit curious.
"Wait until Christmas." she said, and I sighed in disappointment, I was so curious. Suddenly, I felt a shift. An icy feeling came to me. I knew it was not an eidolon. It felt familiar, but dangerous. I tensed, and I pushed Reyna behind. I briefly saw Reyna's look of surprise. A swirl of black appeared, and out of that, stepped two figures, the two I now detested. They looked harmless.
"What do you want Grace?" I spat, putting as much hatred upon that word. He smiled evilly, then looked at Reyna. I glanced at her, and her face shows this message: You try to step one step closer to my Percy, you die directed to Annabeth. I sent the same message, but directed to Grace, saying that he will die if he tries to touch Reyna.
"I want Reyna." he said at last. I opened my mouth to say something, but got cut off by Reyna.
"Oh, you think you say that you will get me?" Reyna snapped, and her dogs appeared, sensing her emotion. I knew Grace had a bad experience trying to pet them. Aurum and Argentum are now officially on my favorite pets list, right up with Blackjack and Mrs. O' Leary. Jason's eyes widened, and Annabeth looked frightened. They ran through the portal again, and I sighed in relief. I turned to find Reyna half slumped over, struggling to keep awake.
"Reyna, just sleep okay?" I asked, "I will be there soon."
Reyna nodded, and fell asleep, sitting straight. I gently laid her down, and I climbed over her to the other side after I shut the light.
"Sleep well." I whispered in her ear, and I too, fell asleep.
"Daddy, Daddy!" a little girl about the age of 5 came running up to me. I looked away from the horizon, and my little girl ran into my open arms.
"Shannon, what is it?" I asked. Shannon has my jet black hair, and Reyna's dark brown eyes. (AN: If you read my previous fanfictions, you know I used that name before. It's just I really like that name.)
"Daddy, can you teach me the water apple trick again?" she asked, and I slowly showed her how to do it. Soon enough, a water Hacky Sack was held in Shannon hands. Her eyes were shining with pride, and I too smiled at the achievement.
My dream shifted.
It was just me and Reyna, walking along the beach. Reyna was wearing a white beach dress, one that rippled in the wind. I suddenly grinned, and I tackled Reyna sending us sprawling in the water. I got up helped her up, and called two hippocampi. We got on, and my dream self followed them. We suddenly stopped, and I brought her down to the bottom, where a palace stood. It was the one my Dad built for Mom, but she let me take it. Reyna's eyes filled with wonder, and I laughed. I pulled her close, not wanting her to get seperated from me by the harsh currents. We entered, and Reyna…..
Reyna POV
I returned from the bathroom, and I found Percy waiting for me, wearing a pair of shorts and no shirt. I felt blush creeping up to my face, but I quickly tucked it down.
He is my boyfriend. If I were to marry him, I get to see him like this all the time! I reminded myself. Percy asked me what the smile was for, and I told him to wait until Christmas. Then Jason and Annabeth appeared, we dealt with them, and they left. I was so tired, my legs suddenly buckled, and I slumped over on the bed. Percy told me to sleep, but I was already up.
I was walking hand in hand with Percy, in the Garden of Bacchus.
"Mommy!" a little girl of about 3 cried, running up to me.
"What is it little Siren?" I asked, using baby voice. I bent down, let go of Percy's hand, and picked my little girl up. She has my long dark hair, and Percy's beautiful sea green eyes.
"Mommy, I want my Boo Boo toy." Siren said, putting her fingers in her mouth. I laughed quietly, and I pulled out a cute little teddy from my little girl
My dream shifted.
Percy and I were sitting in bed, and we were watching one of my favorite Disney movies other than Frozen: Moana. I watched the baby Moana keep on running to the water. I watched Moana grow up. I watched her sing How Far I'll Go, and then I fell asleep, Percy's long comfortable arms around me.
Percy POV
I suddenly woke up, and checked the time. Its was 8:30, and poked Reyna's stomach until she woke up.
"Percy, I don't want to wake up." she mumbled, still half asleep. I pulled her up, startling her.
"Percy," she begged, "I don't want to. This is the best rest I had since, almost never."
I just grinned, and kissed her.
"Reyna, we have to go shopping, remember?" I asked, and Reyna drifted off again, her head resting on my chest, tucked in my arms. I chuckled quietly, and tickled her.
"Percy!" she yelped, eyes popping open. Reyna jumped off, grabbed her clothes, and ran to the bathroom. I pulled on a T-shirt, and Reyna walked out of the bathroom, in a purple SPQR shirt and yoga pants.
"Reyna, do you like pancakes?" I asked.
"Duh, of course!" she said, giving me a very prominent eye roll. I grinned, because I already knew that blue pancakes were on the plate.
"Percy, we got the Lotus Card, ready to go shopping?" Mom asked once we were done, "Paul is taking care of Amanda today."
We both nodded, and made our way downstairs.
"Mom, what should we give Amanda?" I asked.
"I think we should give her a little outfit, like a dress and headband. That would make her so cute." Reyna said, and Mom nodded.
"I already have Reyna's Christmas present." I said, and Reyna put her hand on her chest in mock anger. I poked her stomach, and she giggled. Whoa, where did that come from?
"I already have an idea for your presents." Mom said.
"I know Percy's gift is going to really make him happy." Reyna said, and she whispered it to Mom.
Reyna POV
"I think a framed picture of just Percy and me would be perfect." I whispered to Sally. She nodded, making me happy that I finally thought of a great present for Percy.
Sally is the best mom in the world. I thought to myself.
"Where should we go first?" I asked, and we were soon on a shopping spree.
