-Remote-

Suddenly Percy Jackson is engulfed in a blinding white light, when it dissipates moments later everyone gasps.

Standing before them in radiant silver plate armor is Percy Jackson, his armor is silver but has golden embellishments that forms the image of a giant tree with his arms covered by branches and his chest being the trunk of the tree.

In his right hand is a brilliant Trident with golden blades, the centre blade has a hollow cut-out in the centre of it and the outer blades have a small indentation on the inner side that begins a couple of inches down from the top. The three blades all join together to a hollow ring of metal that in turn connects to the shaft of the weapon, on the other end of the weapon is a foot long blade. The Trident is made out of the same silvery metal as the armor.

On Percy's back is a bow of exquisite quality, it is rather simple with only a few winding vine embellishments, but it radiates an aura of power the belies its four foot size. Its bowstring appears to be made out of woven moonlight, curiously there is no quiver for the bow, but the watchers all guess that the bow can summon or create arrows.

Both Artemis and Apollo stare at the image of the bow with great desire (Artemis) or just plain out drooling (Apollo)

Hephaestus stares at the arms and armor now covering Percy Jackson and wonders if he could speak with the creators of such masterpieces.

Aphrodite is more interested in Percy himself, marking his face are three symbols, a blue and silver swirl mark on his forehead and two blue points underneath each eye.

The rest of the gods are watching in awe or jealousy, except for Ares who is both jealous and slightly terrified of the weapons and power emanating from the… Demigod?

Percy sighs causing a slight mist effect to appear as his super-energized breath contacts the mortal air "I wish I didn't have to go this far Ares, but you stupidity and oversized Ego has lead to you to begin a chain of events that could have destabilized the entire world. As it stands I must remedy this problem, now I face you as I truly am. I am Perseus Belldandyson Poseidonson, Third-Class Special Duty Unlimited, God of Creation, Wisdom, Fate and Heroes. Prepare yourself, War God for the punishment you so rightly deserve"

Suddenly the screens of Olympus and the Underworld go dark as Percy activates a shielding spell to prevent being observed.

Ares scowls in anger and his sunglasses nearly melt from the energies flaring out of his eyes "You dare mock me, I'll show you…" before Ares can finish his threat he is launched backwards as Percy suddenly appears in front of him with his trident extended like a bat or club.

"Yes? You'll show me what? You are at most a Second-Class God, I am only Third-Class due to experience, if you were to go by power, I am a First-Class Unlimited equal to what you would consider a Titan Lord in power" Percy sighs again, as arrogant as he must appear, he absolutely hates to speak as he currently is. However he knows that keeping Ares unbalanced is the only chance he has of surviving. Despite being weaker Ares has the experience of Millennia, he just hopes that his mother never finds out he acted like this. She might appear to be slightly naïve and ditsy, but the Norn of the Present is more than terrifying when properly provoked. Considering she used to be one of the best Valkyries in Asgard, Percy definitely did NOT want to anger his mother.

Ares angered beyond all belief charges forwards with absolute disregard to his own safety (or even any semblance of a plan) and Percy does what he has been trained to do for several years, he sides-steps the seemingly undodgeable charge and uses the short blade on the end of his Trident to strike at the charging God.

The squeal of complete and utterly soul destroying pain that suddenly rings out makes Percy look back to Ares and flinch violently, causing yet another squeal of unimaginable pain. Percy carefully removes his blade from the… remnants of Ares family jewels, and then has to fight with all of his willpower not to vomit. Percy nearly drops his Trident but manages to recover and puts his trident blade at Ares' neck "Surrender or… you know what just surrender, I can't really do anything more torturous then that" Ares shakes his head so fast Percy is amazed that it doesn't fall off "Maybe Apollo will be able to fix it?" Although Percy's voice doesn't really install confidence in anyone listening in.

Grover walks over and puts his hand on Ares shoulder "You poor bastard" then Grover shakes his head and looks at Percy

"What?" Percy queries with a look of confusion (and nausea) on his face

"Pe-e-e-ercy if you ever do that again… I'm gonna not be friends with you anymore" Grover bleats out with a fair amount of fear in his voice.

"S-Seaweed brain, was t-that r-really necessary?" Annabeth asks with a fair amount of horror in her voice.

Percy shakes his head "No, nor was it done on purpose. I reacted instinctually as I was trained to do so…" Percy then scratches his head and thinks for a second "Then again, the women I trained with were all pretty anti-male, I wouldn't put it past them to train me to purposely go for groin strikes against male opponents"

Annabeth looks at him with confusion "Who exactly did you train with?"

Percy sheepishly grins "The Valkyries of Asgard"

Annabeth's jaw nearly hits the core of the Earth "Wait, wait, wait… Are you saying that you trained with members of the NORSE Pantheon?"

A light voice then answers Annabeth "Of course, who else would I have train my son?"

Annabeth spins around only to spot the most beautiful woman she'd ever seen. Standing before her is a woman with brown hair and expressive blue eyes, standing about 5'1" like Percy. Also like Percy she has markings on her face, a tear drop diamond on her forehead and two horizontal triangles with the points facing towards her nose about a inch under the outer most parts of her eyes. She's wearing a strange blue dress and a some interesting golden earrings.

Percy smiles at his mother "Annabeth, Grover I'd like you to meet my mother Belldandy, the Norse Goddess of the Present"

Annabeth frowns at the strange disconnection, the Present while massive doesn't sound all that impressive, so why were her senses screaming that this kind looking Goddess was the biggest threat she'd ever faced "Forgive me if this sounds rude, but if you're the Goddess of the Present, why are you so powerful?"

Percy and Belldandy both start laughing. Annabeth looks between the mother and son duo repeatedly "What's so funny?"

Percy slowly stops laughing and looks at Annabeth "Annabeth, my mother is one of the Norns, one of the Norse Fates and one of the Administrators of the Yggdrasil Supercomputer, essentially you're looking at one of the three Goddesses tasking with keeping Heaven and the Mortal World separate yet interconnected. There are very few beings in this world stronger then my mother, also those earrings of hers are sealing away a good portion of her power. What you feel is around twenty percent of her true power"

Annabeth nods vacantly as the full implications of the Goddesses power come flying home and she asks vacantly "Why were you able to train Percy, I thought the Ancient Laws…"

Percy interrupts her "Don't apply to any deity that isn't Greek. Those are Greek laws, also I'm a full-fledged God, not a Demigod. The only laws I'm bound by is the Minimal Mortal Interference Law and the Peace Treaty between Asgard and Niflheim"

Annabeth frowns in confusion "Niflheim? What's that?"

Belldandy answers "The Norse Underworld, technically. In actuality it is the collective dark side of all Pantheons except for the Greco-Roman Pantheon. Same as Asgard is the collective term for both the Norse Pantheons home and the Homes of all Pantheons except for the Greco-Roman Pantheon"

Annabeth looks at Percy and Belldandy with shock in her eyes "Greco-Roman?"

Percy just raises an eyebrow "After the Rise of Roman the Greek Pantheon was permanently bound to the Roman and vice-versa. As such your Pantheon can only be called Greco-Roman as it is a conglomeration of the Greek and Roman Pantheons. Although a better title would be the Western Pantheon"

Belldandy interrupts before Annabeth can ask another question "As interesting as all this is, my apologizes for interrupting. We must be on our way, after all we are on the eve of a War that could bring about Ragnarok"

"Yes and we don't want that"

Percy and Belldandy turn to see Hild, the Daimakaichō (Ruler of Hell) standing there on the beach holding the Helm of Shadows. "I'll return this to its proper owner, you two deal with the bolt" Hild then vanishes into a puff of smoke.

Annabeth watches on in horror "Who was THAT?"

Percy shrugs nonchalantly "The Ruler of Niflheim, Hild"

Grover shakes himself out of the reactionary terror he had from Hild's appearance and interrupts with "Come on Annabeth, we need to get going"

Annabeth then asks the next obvious question "How are we going to get to Olympus?"

Percy grins and holds up three plane tickets "Why we fly of course! Zeus isn't going to attack us in the air as it would result in the loss or destruction of his Lightning Bolt, so for now we're safe. Although I doubt I'd be able to fly within America again after today, unless I've done something truly amazing"

Belldandy smiles and kisses Percy on the forehead "I must go, I will see you in Asgard Percy" Belldandy then vanishes into the reflection on Percy's Armor.

-BC-

Despite his companion's desire to interrogate him, Percy manages to get aboard the flight and get to New York with a minimum of trouble. He then says good-bye to his quest mates and heads for Olympus.

As he arrives in the Lobby he sends a silent prayer to Zeus requesting the right to enter Olympus. The Lobby Guard then puts a hand to his earphone and waves Percy over. He hands Percy a keycard "Place this in the slot in the elevator and press the button that appears"

Percy walks over to the elevators and enters an empty one. Placing the card in the slot he hits the button that appears and ascends towards Olympus.

Percy steps out of the elevator and is distinctly… underwhelmed. Then again he was used to Asgard which is many times larger and grander then Olympus, he shrugs off the small spike from Yggdrasil indicating that a hard point was nearby. If what he thinks is about to happen in the next few years is correct then activating the Yggdrasil uplink fully would be disastrous… or at the very least a big mess that would require hours of bug hunting and re-coding.

Percy quickly makes his way to the Throne Room of Olympus, ignoring the looks he gets from the residents of Olympus due to his armor.

He enters the Throne Room, right into what looks like a full meeting of the Olympians. Ares limps in after him. Percy knows that it's stupid, dangerous and kinda vicious but he just has to "Hey Ares, sorry about the castration, it was an accident" Ares glares at him with massive amounts of venom, but it's tempered by the fear and remembered pain in his eyes.

The Gods upon hearing all wince and look at Ares with pity… Except Hephaestus who is laughing uncontrollably at his brother's misfortune.

The Goddesses all have varied responses, Demeter and Hera are a mix of pity and smug satisfaction, Aphrodite is glaring daggers at Percy, Athena is shaking her head at the stupidity of Ares and Percy and Artemis is torn between laughing uncontrollably, congratulating Percy and wondering whether or not she should talk with Percy and ask why he did it.

Percy then raises an eyebrow at Ares and continues with "If you keep glaring at me like that then I'll show you some of the other things I have been taught by the millennia old female warriors who have a strong dislike of males like yourself" Ares quickly walks (read: runs like a headless chicken) towards his Throne.

If Percy had been looking he would have seen the looks of intrigue on Athena and Artemis' faces.

Percy walks up to Zeus and bows "My Lord Zeus, I present to you the Master Lightning Bolt. This makes us square on the desire for you to kill me right?" Percy places the Lightning Bolt on the ground.

Zeus smiles at the impertinent comment at the end, he might end up liking this Demi… no this God. Zeus opens out his right hand and the Bolt flies to him while returning to its original form of twenty feet of pure energy "It does indeed and thank you for returning it to me. Now would you mind explaining to me exactly what you meant when you introduced yourself as the god of Creation, Fate, Heroes and Wisdom. I don't believe that you have ever been introduced to this council"

Percy winces as he realizes that he revealed that much "The reason for that Lord Zeus is that those are my Norse Domains. I have no Greek Domains as of yet and as such I am not bound by the Greek Ancient Laws nor the Roman Divina Cohibita but instead I am bound by the Norse laws regarding such things"

Zeus flickers and in his place sits someone nearly identical but with slight changes. Whereas Zeus is a tall, imposing, and very muscular man, with long black shoulder-length hair with a gray-and-black neatly trimmed beard. He has brilliant electrically-blue eyes with a serious and proud, but very handsome face. Now his face has a more dire set to it, like a warrior who has seen many things and a General who has had to order men to their deaths just to save others. Percy immediately knows that he is looking at Jupiter.

Percy nods slowly "Lord Jupiter, so that is what happened. Strange, very strange. I will have to indicate…" Percy's voice lowers slightly and he starts to mutter about 'file integrity' and 'duality of divinity' and many other computer and mythical terms. Eventually Percy shakes himself out of this state and says "My apologizes I was distracted by my duties. Was there something you wished to say Lord Jupiter?"

Jupiter nods slowly and asks "If what you say is true, then there are other Pantheons in this world. I wish to know, why am I and Zeus bound together in a single body?"

Percy shrugs in confusion "I honestly don't know, it could be something as simple as over-resonance to something as complex as a dual file fusion right down to the kernel. In either situation it would be impossible for you and Zeus to separate, you have been bound together for so long that the borders between the two of you are very thin. Eventually you'll combine into a new god I would imagine. Although perhaps if I used a counterpart system via the use of the Doublet system and both Yggdrasil and Nidhogg I might be able to separate the two of you. But that depends on my getting permission to do so from Kami-Sama"

Athena interrupts at this point "Kami-Sama? Who is that, Odin?"

Percy shakes his head "No, you would call him Chaos. The Creator, the first being. I need his permission to do something on that level and I'm afraid that the reputation of the Greek and Roman Gods would prevent that" unnoticed to Percy Jupiter flickers and becomes Zeus

Before Athena can ask another question Apollo buts in with "What's Yggdrasil"

Percy can't believe it, he just stares at Apollo in shock, before he states "Are you telling me that you have no idea about the source of your immortality and your powers!"

Athena immediately pounces on that exclamation "The source, so this Yggdrasil is the source of divine power?"

Percy shrugs and says "More like the supercomputer upon which all of creation is stored and documented. All except for your Pantheon. The last files on the Greek Pantheon were of the Primordials fighting the Titans, after which the Yggdrasil hard line to your Pantheon was severed. Resulting in the possibility of fading and weaker power levels"

The makes all the Olympians look at each other in concern "Can it be fixed?"

Percy shakes his head "Not immediately, it will take a while. But within the next decade yes, but it won't be easy. You'll have to learn Yggdrasil operation protocols or Nidhogg operation protocols depending on alignment"

Zeus raises an eyebrow "Nidhogg?"

Percy looks at him seriously and then says "Where there is a Heaven, there is also a Hell. Nidhogg is the Supercomputer of Niflheim, the demons. Which are not as bad as you would imagine. They mostly just try to take humans souls via contracts. Just beware anything with glowing red writing on it that you have to sign for. There'll always be fine print that'll benefit the demon in question"

Poseidon speaks up "Would we be expected to follow such conventions?"

Percy shakes his head "Not really, it's your choice as to which side to follow and it is also your choice as the dominant Pantheon as to how your people act. Connecting with Yggdrasil and Nidhogg merely means that you cannot start wars with the opposite faction and that you have to follow orders from you respective faction leader. Kami-Sama takes a hands off approach and Hild usually lets you do as you wish as long as you meet the quota of human souls, don't rebel against her and don't start a war with Heaven"

Athena looks suspicious "That seems too loose, there would have to be some restrictions"

Percy shrugs "Like I said, it depends on what you decide, This is your territory. The two systems simply prevent you from fading, provide power, tools and reinforcements and in return you simply have to follow the basic laws of each side. You'd have to ask the leaders for more information. I don't know many of the laws of either side due to the fact I'm a child of a Norn. I'm less bound by restrictions and such because of this"

Demeter leans forwards "The Norns, aren't they the tenders of Yggdrasil?"

Percy smirks at Demeter "You know that simply because Yggdrasil is called the World Tree in mythology don't you?" Demeter blushes but nods "You're correct, the Norns are the System Admin of Yggdrasil. It's their and my job to maintain Yggdrasil's most basic functions, although we do have other responsibilities. Also in case you were wondering Yggdrasil actually is a giant tree, that happens to be a supercomputer" Percy waves his hand and a picture of a beautiful city surrounding a giant tree is seen "This is Asgard and in the middle is Yggdrasil's Central Core" Many of the Olympians are gaping at the image.

Percy then receives a message written in some language the Olympians can't read "I'm sorry, but I'm being recalled to Asgard. I must leave soon. Please be careful Yggdrasil is beginning to log requests from Kronos. His powers are beginning to return and we can't cut him off without risking a cascade failure that could destroy all of you"

Percy with a wave of his arm makes a puddle of water appear, steps into it and vanishes.

Hermes looks around at the rest of the Olympians and says "I don't know about the rest of you, but that was one of the coolest exits I've ever seen"

Chapter 2

The Beginning of a New Summer

-BC-

"I'm thinking a ass kicking with spiked boots wouldn't be enough," Percy mutters as he stares at the wound. Surrounding him are two bronze bulls… or rather the several dozen remnants of two bronze bulls. Percy shakes his head and begins to incant in the ancient tongue. Nearby Percy's new friend Tyson perks up as he listens to what Percy is saying.

Annabeth despite not liking the Cyclops on principal notices and asks "Do you know what language that is?"

Tyson nods slowly "That's the Old Tongue, what Mother Earth spoke to her children,"

Annabeth nods slowly "Could you translate please?"

Tyson nods and then straightens up "Remote-Root-Access. Spell configuration He-23 'Benediction of a Generous God'. Specialize, Flora, Subset Cursed Demi-Deity and Pine. Priority request. Utilize internal energies. User Perseus Belldandyson. Authorization Code: Norn-Gamma-27-1-Omega. Range five inches, distance 4.5 inches. Release!" Annabeth and the nearby campers shiver as Percy's voice is perfectly mimicked by Tyson, Annabeth and the other Athena campers nearby move slightly close and begin to note the structure of the spell.

Then the Athena children present are distracted by the glowing green energy that lances from Percy's outstretched hand into the oozing wound on Thalia's Tree. They all gasp in amazement at the sudden vitality granted to the Tree.

Annabeth rushes forwards "You healed it," she cries in a overjoyed voice.

Percy shakes his head "No, I didn't. It would take something truly powerful to fully reverse this. All I did was massively bolster Thalia's energy reserves and removed around eighty percent of the poison. That gives us a couple of months leeway in which to find a true cure,"

Malcolm, a child of Athena standing nearby, asks what he thinks is an obvious question "If that's the case why don't you simple repeat the spell and slowly but surely cleanse Thalia's Tree?"

Percy sighs in aggravation, he truly hated having to explain what he knew to be basic knowledge. Ironically despite that he was one of the best teachers in Asgard. Go figure. "If it were that simple, Malcolm. I would have already done so. However Thalia's spirit is only partially divine. If I were to attempt what you suggested there would be three outcomes. None of which I want to happen,"

Annabeth steps forwards "What are the outcomes?"

Percy holds up his right index finger "First: There is the possibility that Thalia's soul ignites from the pressure of my power and explodes destroying her and everything else within twenty miles," Everyone gulps and thunder booms in the background.

Percy now lifts up his right middle finger "Second: There is the possibility that my power subverts her mind. Will it would heal her and even release her from the tree. She would be in essence my slave unable to refuse any commands I give her. Whether spoken or not," The girls nearby quickly take on looks of disgust and once again Thunder booms in the background, but this time with a sense of disgust and refusal.

Percy then lifts up his right ring finger and states "Third and finally: The massive infusion of my energy into her soul and body causes Thalia's and my files to merge. At which point our bodies and souls would merge permanently resulting in a new being that is neither Thalia or I, but something new and most likely insane," Everyone shivers and this time the thunder doesn't boom

Percy then sighs looking at the somewhat depressed campers (and confused Tyson) "If I had the power to heal Thalia I would. But she is partially mortal and on top of that I am not a God of Healing. My powers are designed to affect fate and create things, they don't have the needed malleability or restraint to utilize a spell high enough to repair this,"

Annabeth then asks "C-could you teach one of us a spell that could, and then we could cast it?"

Percy looks at Annabeth and quickly weights the options available before sighing and shaking his head "I could, but only if there is absolutely no other choice. Teaching you magic is dangerous and it has dozens, even hundreds of pitfalls that you could and most probably would blunder into. Magic isn't simple, it's a very complex system of debts and favors. Every time you cast a spell, you are put into the debt of another being. In my case I just accrued a debt with Eir, or perhaps Iðunn, The Norse Goddesses of Healing and the tender of the Apples of Immortality, which she will most likely use to cast Magic based in my domains,"

Annabeth nods slowly "Then whenever you cast a spell you placed in debt to another, could we simply have our debts placed with the Greek Gods,"

Percy shrugs "You could, but for two small problems. One, the Greek Gods aren't connected to Yggdrasil, so while they can give blessings they can't provide magic to mortals or Demigods and Two, would you really want to be in debt with Apollo to such a degree he could order you to do Anything and you couldn't refuse, because Yggdrasil and Nidhogg would force you to follow the request," Annabeth gulps at the sudden seriousness in Percy's tone and shivers slightly at the idea of giving a god (especially Apollo) that much power over her.

Percy smiles slightly "Magic is never something to be taken lightly, also you would have to beware that the spell you were casting wasn't provided by a demon. As it would most likely cost you your soul… or at least a great deal of embarrassment. Demons might not be the soul devouring monsters of myth, but don't let that fool you, they can be quite vicious when it suits them. Come to think of it the Gods can be the same way,"

Percy shakes his head to clear them of the random thoughts popping up and walks towards the camp "Come on then, let's go. I want to lie down and say hello to Chiron,"

Annabeth shouts out "Percy wait!" Percy stops and lets Annabeth and Tyson catch up "Percy there's something you need to know!" Percy nods at her to make her continue.

-BC-

"So it's true then?" Percy asks as he walks in on Chiron packing his stuff.

Before Chiron can answer Tyson catches sight of him "PONY!" Chiron looks at Tyson with surprise as Percy snickers.

"My dear Cyclops, I am a Centaur. Not one of those overweight midget horses called ponies," Chiron responds with a fair amount of heat in his voice.

Percy snickers a little more "Careful Chiron, you're letting you prejudice show through," Chiron simply gives Percy a flat stare that makes him burst out laughing as 1960's lounge music plays in the background.

Percy calms down slightly "So, who's your replacement?"

Chiron looks like he bit into a lemon "Tantalus,"

Annabeth gasps as Percy's face takes on an expression of disgust and anger and his blue markings turn red "That monster! Why?" Then Percy shakes his head "Don't tell me Mr. Dumb thought it would be funny. Pudgy-ass Cherub," Annabeth is torn between laughing at the description and shivering in terror as Percy calmly insults one of the Olympians. From outside comes a lot of angry shouting and cursing and a clap of thunder that sounds highly amused.

Percy then radiates an immense amount of energy that makes the angry shouting and cursing turn into terrified whimpers and sounds of fleeing. Percy takes a deep breath and his markings return to their original blue, as his power levels drop back to the level where they cannot be felt. Annabeth stares at him in shock "What was that?"

Percy smiles slowly "That was the power of one capable of destroying an entire planet,"

Annabeth's jaw nearly departs her face "WHAT?"

Percy sighs and then holds out his right hand with all digits extended "Gods, Demons and Mortals have five levels of power. They are in order from strongest to weakest:"

"Zero-Class – The level of Kami-Sama and Hild, no other beings in all of creation can match them in power. They could literally destroy this entire universe and remake it, fortunately they are bound by the Akashic Laws that prevent them from doing so without good reason," Annabeth and Chiron gulp, while Tyson shudders, he might not completely understand what Percy said, but he got the gist of it.

"First-Class – The top level of power for divine and infernal beings, at this level immortal beings can destroy the whole planet with ease. That's one of my ranks," Annabeth looks like she has a question but Percy waves her off.

"Second-Class – Gods or Demons of this level can easily wipe out whole continents, for example, Lemuria and Mu," Chiron looks at Percy in surprise, he'd always wondered what happened to Lemuria, they had some of the best Mead he'd ever tasted.

"Third-Class – At this level a God or Demon can destroy whole cities with but a wave of their hand. This is another of my ranks, it is also the current rank of the Titans and the Big Three" Annabeth is nearly bursting with questions but holds them down with great willpower,"

"Sub-Third-Class or the Sub-Classes – These are the levels of Mortals and most of the Greek Pantheon. It is divided into Sub-First through Sub-Fifth, Sub-First is the level of some of the Olympians, Aphrodite, Athena, Artemis. Etc. Sub-Second is lesser Olympians and some Minor Gods, Ares, Hecate, Hermes. Etc. Sub-Third is the level of most Minor Gods and Dionysus, as well as some powerful Demigods, Thalia for example. Sub-Fourth is the level of most Demigods, like children of Olympians aside from the Big Three. Sub-Fifth is the level of weaker Demigods and mortals. Luke for example is Sub-Fifth-Class as while he has some of the inborn abilities of Children of Hermes, he is mostly reliant on a sword," Annabeth looks torn between arguing with Percy and agreeing, Chiron is nodding slowly as he thinks over what Percy said.

Annabeth then asks one of the questions that had been bugging her from the start of the lecture "What do you mean one of your Ranks?"

Percy grins and then nods "Good Question. Unlike most beings I actually have three rankings. One for my Norse Divinity, which is Third-Class Special Duty Unlimited. One for my Greek Divinity, which is Sub-First-Class. And finally one for my Greek Infernal or Daemon side, which is First-Class Unlimited,"

Chiron jumps in at this point (metaphorically) "Greek Infernal?"

Percy nods slowly "While the Greek Gods are called Gods, their actions in Mythology, rapes, murders, transformations, curses, etc. Have caused them to be considered borderline Light/Dark, they can either connect to Yggdrasil and become Deities, or connect to Nidhogg and become Daemons. Either way they're immortal. Because of this I've two divine ranks and an infernal rank,"

Chiron choughs slightly and looks away in embarrassment, he remembers vividly some of the more monstrous events of the Age of Heroes and The Age of Gods.

Annabeth winces as she remembers some of the more unfortunate results of mythology, both Arachne and Medusa come to mind.

Percy shakes his head at them "Come on, I need to talk to a certain murderer and explain to him in as many painful terms as I have to about what is and isn't acceptable here at camp," Percy turns to the door to leave and then half-turns back "Chiron, I hope to see you once again as activity director of this camp,"

Chiron smiles and nods to Percy "You and me both Percy, you and me both,"

Annabeth and Tyson chase after Percy, hoping to at least mitigate the upcoming brawl between Gods. A conch shell horn sounds in the distance. Percy stops for a sec before turning towards the Dining Pavilion, the campers that see the stormy expression on his face quickly get out of the way. They know better than to get close to someone that pissed off, especially when they happen to be a God. How did the campers know Percy was a God?

He told them, Percy dropped by a week after the Solstice and stayed until the end of Summer. Luke tried to poison Percy but the Pit Scorpion he used fled from the much more powerful being and Luke had to outrun a slightly annoyed God wielding Anaklusmos with incredible ability. Campers who saw the event all pity Luke as Percy managed to get a similar strike in as the one that 'defeated' Ares.

Percy then vanished to Asgard for the rest of the year. Leaving behind a camp that absolutely loved having him, and why wouldn't they? After all having a pretty powerful God helping out and giving some of the training the Mr. D was supposed to, was (Pardon the Pun) a Godsend for the camp and especially Chiron.

Annabeth especially was glad to see Percy wielding his bow, although she did ask why it is called 'Fading Moonlight's Whisper'. Percy just winked and tapped his nose. Annabeth still fumes over that. Lee Fletcher however was in hysterics after hearing some of the stories of Percy's training, apparently Children of Poseidon have the misfortune of being horrible Archers, until they persevere long enough and then they could be a match for Apollo and Artemis (Hence where Orion got his skill) Percy when asked by one of the Aphrodite girls refused to comment on his Hunting skills.

Now that he is walking towards the Dining Pavilion with a pissed off expression on his face and a Cyclops and Daughter of Athena following him. Surprisingly enough no-one even blinked an eye at this, Percy had done impossible things before, the fact that he was good friends with the Ares cabin despite their rocky start (and his castrating their father) and had managed to get a good relationship with the Athena cabin despite his father.

As Percy walks in the Pavilion everyone goes quiet as he walks towards the Staff table, Dionysus despite being angry at him for his comments earlier pales and goes silent when he sees the look of sheer anger on Percy's face. On Olympus a Iris message opens up showing the Dining Pavilion. Percy slams his hands down on the table startling the entire camp and in a voice filled with venom states "Tantalus, it's good to see you again" Tantalus takes one look at Percy and jumps back cowering.

This leaves one thought in the minds of all of the observers 'How did the two of them meet?'
