"Kyoshi?" Percy muttered in confusion, his brow furrowed as he tried to work out where that was. A hard task considering that geography like most of his academic classes, was not his strong suit.
"You do not know of it?" Han asked gently. "Well I suppose we are only a small island, one which is still a part of the Earth Kingdom but obviously not actually connected to it."
"The Earth Kingdom?" Percy muttered once again confused, as he was not at all sure what was happening now, after all his geography and modern history might not be great, but he was pretty sure there was no country called the Earth Kingdom where he was from.
"Oh dear," Han said his brow furrowed in concern now. "It looks like you're far more disorientated than I feared."
"Yeah…" Percy replied warily, his eyes moving from the man to the girl as he did so. "I think you might be right!"

Chapter 2

(With Percy on the Island of Kyoshi)
A faint sigh of contentment left Percy's lips as he looked out over the seemingly vast, endless sea before him, his green eyes narrowing as he felt the cold sea breeze washing over him. It had been six months now, since he had first washed up on shore Kyoshi, injured and confused, and in that time he had learned one very important thing. This place, this new world he found himself in, it was almost nothing like his own.
Instead of the hundreds of countries and nations that made up Percy's homeland, this world had only four, each of which was named after one of the four main elements. They had the Fire Nation, a large, prosperous and technologically advanced civilization, who by the sound so of it were in the midst of forging themselves a world spanning empire, whether the rest of the world liked it or not.
With the natives of these lands not only being technologically advanced in terms of engineering, and military organisation, but also sporting a small and select group of people who could bend the element of fire to their will. With most of these Firebenders, as they were called, having been conscripted into the Fire Nation's army and navy. Or at least that was what the island's traders had told him.
After that you had the Earth Kingdom, a colossal landmass, with a vast population all of whom were spread out into thousands of isolated towns all across the Kingdom. With the Earth Kingdom itself being united under the rule of a single King, who governed from their capital city, Ba Sing Se, a city which by the sounds of it was the size of a small country in and of itself, with a population of over ten million, which again he had learned though rumour and hearsay.
Of course despite its size, the Earth Kingdom was getting battered in the ongoing war. Its landmass being too big for its armies to properly or fully protect, and the centralistic nature of its government making many of the more isolated regions ripe for the picking as the smaller, but better equipped, better trained and better armed Fire Nation armies took advantage of the opportunities presented.
Despite that though the Earth Kingdom had clung on for hundreds of years, its people being hardy and numerous. This of course wasn't surprising when you also counted the native Earthbenders who were scattered across the Kingdom, these men and women capable of manipulating the earth, were at their strongest on the land. With this meaning that the many Earth Kingdom armies and settlements weren't completely defenseless, especially in the heart of their Kingdom.
Following on from that there were the Water Tribes, with there being two of them, the Northern Water Tribe a powerful country with a vast number of Waterbenders and a large, but relatively inexperienced standing army. With the Northern Water Tribe having numerous large, walled cities lining the coast of the North Pole, protected by the arctic waters and glaciers native to their waters.
Despite their strength though the Northern Tribe had been noticeably absent in regards to the ongoing war, only sending a few boatloads of soldiers to the Erath Kingdom as they kept the majority of their force back in the far north so they could defend their own homeland. Despite the fact their icy waters and isolation did a very good job of that already.
That being said Percy could understand the reason behind their inaction, how could you help your allies, when you couldn't even protect yourselves. However he also found himself somewhat disappointed it the isolated nation, they could after all do a lot of good, however they chose to do very little, not even bothering to help their beleaguered sister tribe on the other side of the world.
This for Percy was especially disappointing as when he had heard of the Waterbenders he'd been excited to meet them, after all he was born the son of a god of the sea. He had thought he would get along well with a group of people calling themselves the Water Tribe, who knows maybe he could have even learned a few tricks from them.
He had after all heard that the Water Tribe had learned how to use their Waterbending art to heal both themselves and other people, which for Percy was especially interesting as he only knew how to use water to heal himself, which in itself was only because such regenerative healing was a natural trait for a Son of Poseidon.
However despite the opportunities these people may present him, he found their disloyalty to their own kin, and their shortsightedness in regards to the ongoing war distasteful, especially since loyalty was one of Percy's greatest traits.
After all the Northern Water Tribe had not only forsaken the Earth Kingdom in the war, but the Southern Water Tribe, their own sister tribe too. With the Southern Water Tribe, from what he had heard, having been long since under attack and continuously raided by the Fire Nation, their cities destroyed, their Waterbenders killed or imprisoned and their populace subjugated through intimidation and force. Yet despite that, in over a hundred years there had been no sign of assistance from their stronger sister tribe, not even a token response.
This information of course, once again came from the many traders that frequented the island with whom Percy had built something of a rapport with over the last six months, which is why he tended to believe them, or at least believe there was at least a grain of truth in what they told him.
This of course left the last country, or rather the last civilization, the Air Nomads. Who, from what Percy had heard were a monk like, quasi-religious order of people, all of whom lived in one of the four Air Temples dotted around the world, with their being one in the north, the south, the east and the west of the world. And when Percy said lived, he meant lived, after all from what he had been told the Air Nomads had been massacred by the Fire Nation to the last man, woman and child nearly a hundred years ago, an action that started off the hundred year war.
With this all being done to kill off a single person, the Avatar, a man, or woman apparently who constantly reincarnated through the ages, their soul transmigrating from one body to another so they could live anew. With each new reincarnation of the Avatar, having vast amounts of power, the ability to control all four elements and apparently access to the memories of the thousands of lives they had lived before.
From what Percy understood of it, this Avatar person, over the millennia had been deified, with the person in question having become synonymous with maintaining the balance in the world and ensuring an eternal era of peace…
Yeah, Percy thought that was utter horse shit! In fact it was likely that belief in the Avatar that caused the world to stagnate and decline into what it was today, the belief that a single person can solve all of your problems as oppose to dealing with it yourself. No doubt it had led to many people sitting back and waiting for the Avatar to swoop in save the day and solve all their problems.
Suffice to say Percy wasn't too keen on the idea of the Avatar and what he represented, in fact as an outsider, the way he saw was that the presence of the Avatar did more harm than good to the world. Which was probably a bit of an unpopular stance to take, especially on Kyoshi Island, which had ironically enough been founded and named after one of the Avatar's carnations, hence why Percy kept this no doubt controversial opinion to himself.
Letting out another sigh at that thought, Percy tore his mind away from the state of the world and instead began to think about things a bit closer to home. As in what he was going to do with himself now that he had contended himself to staying here in this new world, away from capricious gods, annoying Quests and the memories of fallen comrades.
Don't get him wrong he had enjoyed his last six months on Kyoshi, the people here, after they realised he meant no harm, had been very welcoming to him. With the village leader, Han, having been very kind in telling Percy more about the state of the world and the culture he had found himself in.
Percy had also shared edited bits and pieces of his own life story, though he had of course kept the details of his own situation somewhat quiet, after all when he had first tried telling them he was from another world they had all instantly assumed he meant he had somehow grown up in 'the spirit world', with this being the reason he knew so little about what was going on.
Percy, in the end, instead of disabusing them of the notion, he had just allowed them to come to their own conclusions. After all being from this 'spirit world' would probably be a lot more palatable to the people of this world than the truth that he was a Demigod form an entirely different and unconnected world.
Either way the people of Kyoshi had been good to him, as they had fed him, clothed him. Hell, they had even set Percy up with a home on the island, a small house on the outskirts of their village. Of course Percy was expected to earn his keep, which meant he had ended up going out on a few fishing boats where he'd use his 'Waterbending' to help them catch fish.
With this being something he'd become very popular for, as he'd pretty much tripled the amount of fish they brought in each time he went out. Not that Percy ate the fish himself, he may have no compunction in catching them, after all he believed in the circle and life and all that, but that didn't mean he had any interest in eating them, especially not when he could still here their thoughts, limited as they were.
No, he had enjoyed his time here on Kyoshi, however he was becoming restless. He wanted to go out and explore more of this world, he wanted to visit the abandoned air temples, travel the great expanse of the Earth Kingdom, look upon the frozen cities of the north and immerse himself in the flamboyant culture of the Fire Nation. This island was nice, but there was more out there and Percy wanted to see it all.
But first he needed to get himself back into fighting shape, and learn more about what was happening and the reason behind. After all there was a war on, and the last thing he wanted was to be caught flatfooted in the midst of it.
Percy let out another breath at that, before he reached out and stretched both of his arms out wide, his back cracking slightly as he did so. Glancing to the side as he did this, Percy's eyes instantly locked onto the stump where his left forearm had once been, a slight scowl crossing his face at the sight of his now fully healed injury.
Even now six months later he was still, if he were honest with himself, a little bit leery of his 'disability', that's not to say he was angsting over it, as he was an adaptable soul and had quickly learned that his injury hadn't effect his Demigod abilities, nor his sword play, though it did require him to adjust his fighting style to account for the loss.
That being said he was still a bit unsure as to how he had gotten the injury, after all the last thing he remembered before awakening here was fighting against the Titan Perses, and back then he had been whole and healthy. It was a mystery, and one Percy was pretty sure he wouldn't get answers to any time soon, if ever.
Narrowing his eyes and concentrating, Percy reached out and began to manipulate the sea water in front of him, easily controlling the water as a globe of it rose out of the sea. Percy then manipulating the salty water so that it quickly shot forwards and covered the remnants of his left arm. After which he began to shape it until it took the form of a watery hand, Percy mentally manipulating it as he did so until it was an almost exact replica of what his real hand had looked like.
Looking down at his new watery appendage, Percy turned the highly condensed water into thick dark coloured ice with a mere thought, his eyes trailing over it as he tried to bend the fingers on his left arm, the ice fingers of his hand letting out a slight cracking sound, before they began to move as if the hand were real. The phantom feelings he still had in regards to his missing arm coming in use for once as it allowed him to exert greater control over his new appendage, and maintain it too.
Smiling slightly at that, Percy began to rotate his hand, twiddling fingers as he tested its movement and dexterity. The icy hand acting just like his normal one had, the whole process needing little to no concentration to maintain, especially since he'd been practicing it for months now, only really adjusting a few of his old water based techniques to do so.
With that thought in mind, Percy smile slightly as he looked at the hand again, the appendage turning back into water before it changed shape and froze into the shape of a double bladed axe head. Narrowing his eyes Percy swung the axe around, testing it out as he did so, sharpening its edges and lengthening its icy 'haft'.
"Nah, not really my style." Percy muttered to himself, before he turned the axe back into water, after which he reshaped it again. The powerful Demigod easily turning it into a three foot lance like appendage, after which he turned it into a five foot long water whip, then he tried out a three foot long double edged sword blade, which was then followed by him turning it into a sharpened hook and then finally a spiked mace.
"Having fun?" An amused voice spoke up from behind Percy, distracting him from his entertainment as he instead turned the icy appendage turned back into a near perfect copy of his hand.
"Suki?" Percy asked with a smirk, before he turned around his green eyes twinkling as he looked down at the petit, fifteen year old brunette. Noticing as he did so her slightly flushed cheeks and the sweat on her brow, sure signs that she'd likely just finished training and had stripped out of her uniform and come to the coast to cool off, this routine having become something she often did. "Shouldn't you be at dance practice?"
In response to that Suki merely rolled her eyes, and wiped the sweat off her brow with the sleeve of her tunic, after which her gaze idly looked Percy up and down. Appreciating his dress sense as she saw he was wearing an armless green tunic which showed off his heavily muscled arms, as well as a pair of baggy brown trouser and a pair of black boots. It was a simple look, but it definitely worked for him.
"I'm sorry, I distracted you from your splashing about." Suki replied with a smirk, easily brushing aside his 'dancing' comment, after all by now she'd worked out that the more annoyed she got at his flippant comments, the more likely he was to continue baiting her. He could be an arsehole like that sometimes.
Percy grinned as he heard her quick response, not at all bothered by the disingenuous way she referred to his Demigod abilities. "How you doing then Suki? Having a good day?"
Suki rolled her eyes as she heard that. "I'm bored, I'm ready to be named as a full Kyoshi warrior now, but they are still dragging their feet with my promotion."
"Be patient, it'll come." Percy replied kindly, knowing as he did so that he was being a little hypocritical, after all when was the last time he'd been patient, like ever.
"I know," Suki sighed, before she turned to look curiously at Percy, her gaze moving from his faintly smiling face to his new icy hand which was ow held limply at his side. "How's the practice coming along?"
"It's a work in progress." Percy replied easily as he looked down at his new hand, clenching it into a fist as he did so and causing inch long spikes to protrude from the knuckles, before with a sigh he relaxed it, returning it to its regular shape. "I'm able to maintain it indefinitely, when I'm awake at least. But I'm not sure how it would hold up in combat?"
"You say that like you'll be in a fight anytime soon." Suki replied dryly, looking out to sea dispassionately as she did so.
"Well there is a war on you know." Percy said with a shrug as he looked over to the younger girl, noting the slightest hint of resentment in her tone as she brought her arms up to her chest and crossed them.
"Kyoshi's stayed out of the war so far, and we'll probably continue to do so, right up until the Fire Nation lands on our shore." Suki responded with a frown, shrugging her shoulders as she did so.
"And you think they should be doing more?" Percy questioned, cocking his eyebrow curiously at the girl as he waited for her response.
"They should be doing something, I mean if we don't even try to help the rest of the world, then it'll be our own fault when, after the Earth Kingdom and Water Tribes are conquered, the Fire Nation comes for us." Suki replied bitterly, after all she knew why Kyoshi had been inactive so far, but at the same time she knew that this 'peace' wouldn't last and that sooner or later the Fire Nation would come for them, like they had the rest of the world.
"You're probably right in that thinking." Percy said with a sigh. "If the Fire Nation wants a true victory then they cannot leave anywhere unconquered."
Suki grunted at that.
Seeing this Percy rolled his eyes, before nudging her with his shoulder. "Hey, once you become a Kyoshi Warrior you can work your way up the ranks, and who knows, maybe you'll be able to convince them of the threat they'll one day face."
"I'll need to be made a member first." Suki replied pessimistically.
Percy rolled his eyes as he heard that. "You're probably the best in the bunch, I can't see you not becoming a member. Especially since only half of the current warriors are on active duty nowadays. In fact give it a few years and I reckon you'll be in a leadership position!"
"I think you might be being a bit too optimistic there. But anyway, my problem is not the training, it's the experience. So far day in and day out I practice the katas, and spar against the other Kyoshi Warriors. Sure I beat them more often than not, even the veterans, but if I'm to advance I need to fight against a greater variety of opponents, I need a greater depth of fighting experience." Suki grumbled, before she paused her blue eyes shifting over to Percy, running down his strong build and his confident stance as she did so, noting that he had the stance of a fighter, born and bred.
"Maybe you should join one of the trading boat crews, spend a few months at sea fighting off renegades and pirates." Percy shrugged, completely oblivious to the now sly look Suki was sending him.
"Or I could fight you." Suki responded bluntly, catching Percy by surprised as he glanced sideways at the confidently grinning girl.
"Excuse me?" Percy asked, a bemused smile now on his lips.
"Why don't the two of us spar?" Suki continued confidently, her tone unwavering and her gaze challenging. "Unless you're scared of me kicking your arse?"
"And what makes you think I know how to fight?" Percy asked dryly, rolling his eyes as he saw her turn to fully face him, the challenging expression on her face not fading.
"You know Percy, you're not as clever or as subtle as you think you are." Suki said her tone turning amused now. "People have seen you practicing your swordsmanship, all be it with a stick, but practicing all the same. You're good we all know that, and whilst you might not be too forthcoming with your past we all know you can fight, and not just as a Waterbender!"
Percy cocked an eyebrow at that, and there he was thinking he was being all sneaky when he trained in his backyard, then again Suki was a soon to be Kyoshi Warrior, and one of the things they specialized in was stealth. Still he was at least going to put a token resistance, even if it was for the sake of being stubborn.
"Ok, I see how it is, you're feeling down and want to beat up a cripple to make yourself feel better." Percy sniffed, crossing his arms in front of him as he did so.
"Don't think you can play the cripple card, I know as well as you do that it won't disadvantage you." Suki scoffed, her gaze now deliberately on the watery replica Percy now had for his missing hand.
Percy raised an amused eyebrow at that.
"Come on Percy please, I mean just think if we start sparring it will be mutually beneficial! You get to learn how to fight with your 'handicap', and I'll get to practice against a different opponent who has a different style of fighting than what I'm used to, and who can bend to. It's the best of both worlds a win win situation, one we both benefit from!" Suki continued, her hands diving towards the back of her belt, from which she drew two folded up green fans. Both of which she then opened, revealing that the fans themselves were made of steel and had a sharp edge to them.
Seeing this Percy let out an exaggerated sigh, before he extended his right hand drawing water from the nearby sea to him, before he formed it into a four foot long sword, one with a leaf shaped blade and wide cross guard. A slightly longer replica of his lost sword Anaklumous.
Slashing his new blade through the air, Percy frowned slightly as he condensed the water before freezing it, turning his blade of water into a sword of ice. His frown easing slightly as he got used to the length and weight of the blade, even as he turned to face Suki, his right foot extended forward, whilst his other foot was held back and slightly to the side, his legs slightly bent as he found his centre.
Seeing all of this Suki grinned, her youthfulness shining through as the warrior personality she liked to wear, slipped away to reveal the excited teenage girl beneath. "Right ok then, let's head into the village and go to one of the training yards. The one at the Kyoshi Warrior's headquarters should be free!"
"No, I think we should spar right here." Percy replied, his lips curling up in a grin.
"Here?" Suki asked in surprise, a slight grimace on her face as he looked around at the surrounding area, noticing as she did so the rocky terrain, the seaweed covered stones and the small scattering of rock pools and small patches of sand visible here and there in between the rocks. "Really?"
"Well you wanted variety didn't you? The terrain in a fight won't always favour you, it could be a desert, or a ruined building or a thickly wooded forest. I can tell you right now though, it likely won't be a well maintained training yard." Percy replied bluntly, knowing from experience that a fight can happen anywhere and at any time. This was something he'd learned early on his Demigod career, which is why he started training in a variety of areas, from the bottom of the sea, to the rim of an active volcano.
Suki frowned slightly as she heard that, before with a nod she got into her fight stance, her legs slightly spread with her right foot forwards, her two bladed fans closed and held at the ready as she slipped into a stance which reminded Percy of some kind of martial artist. "Ok then, let's fight, right here and now!"
Percy tilted his head to the side at that, kind of curious now about just how she would fight. After all he knew the Kyoshi Warrior's mainly fought with battlefans, but he knew little else about their skills. After all he'd never really found a reason to visit their headquarters or watch the warrior women train. More often than not this because he was either working, talking with traders and village elders or training in the poorly maintained garden at the back of his borrowed house.
"When you're ready." Percy said, his eyes narrowed as he tilted his sword so the tip was now pointed at Suki, his other hand freezing as he did so, the fingers extending into two inch long razor sharp claws.
Shifting on her feet, Suki made the first move. The lithe young girl easily crossing the five foot distance between them, passing over the rough terrain like it was a plain of smooth grass, one of her closed fans thrust forward in a lunge, even as her other one was pulled back and partially opened.
Taking this in, Percy reacted in an instant, his sword flicking to the side as he made to deflect her lunge, only for it to be a faint as the girl instead pulled her right hand back and spun on her heel, her body position low as she brought her other, now open, fan around in a slash which if she hit would score a nasty wound across Percy's torso.
Undeterred by this, Percy took a step backwards his icy hand lashing out and deflecting it, the appendage holding as the fans barely even chipped it, even as he knocked it away causing Suki's strike to miss and the girl to falter for a mere moment. Still it was long enough for Percy to notice and take advantage of, as he lunged forward his blade extended as he hoped to take her while she was off balance.
Twisting around, one of Suki's hands landed on a nearby rock as she lashed out with a side kick the blow hitting the flat of Percy's blade and sending it off course. Though only for a moment as he took another step forward, his blade once again whipping through the air, only for Suki to roll backwards and regain her feet, after which she darted forward again, her movements' swift and fluid as she closed in on him.
Holding his sword in a loose grip, Percy slowly gave ground as he either dodged or deflected Suki's barrage of attack, his sea green eyes locked on her form as she assessed her style of fighting and looked for an opening. Occasionally he would flick out her blade, nearly taking her off-guard, only for her to flip out of the way, or dance out of the way of his blade before closing in again.
Lashing out with another arm thrust, Suki spun in midair as she open both blades and lashed out at Percy, expecting him to continued backing off as she did so. This time though she was caught by surprise as he didn't give ground and instead moved forward, his sword moving quickly as it struck the side of one of her fans almost making it fly out of her hands.
Bulling forward, Percy then began to unleash a wide array of slashes and lunges at Suki, forcing her backwards as he she had to dodge or deflect each and every one. The girl often doing this by either flipping of diving out of the way, expending more energy than she needed to, before she then used the momentum to try to counterattack her fans like blurs as she used the momentum of her own movements to add strength and speed to her slashes.
Only for her attacks to be deflected with a flick of the sword, or the back of his icy hands, that or he just took a back step and avoided the attack entirely. After which he would then dart in again and continue to force her on the defensive.
Sweeping his blade through the air Percy made Suki scramble backwards as she tried to dodge it, this time though Suki misjudged her step and ended up stumbling on a slippery rock, one of her legs slipping out from under her as she fell on her back. Before she could even think to regain her feet, she ended up freezing in place as she found the tip of Percy's sword at her throat.
"Be more mindful of your surroundings next time." Percy said calmly, not showing even a hint of having just been in a fight as he took a step back allowed the red faced girl to stand up again. Suki's breaths coming out quicker now, even as sweat began to bead on her forehead from her previous exertions. "Also try to be a bit more economic in your movements. I'll give you an example, so imagine you take a step back to avoid an attack. That will take far less energy than diving or flipping away, but will have the same outcome. It also allows you to maintain more control over the fight, after all you won't be potentially putting yourself off balance, nor will you need to think as much about the landing... It's just a tip, but I personally find conserving energy in a fight helpful, especially if you are going to be a prolonged fight."
Suki nodded abruptly at that, taking in his advice. Before with a nod she sunk into the same stance as before. "Again!"
Seeing this Percy smiled faintly at her response, before nodding his sword once again held up and at the ready. This time though, he decided to make the first move.
In response to this Suki was almost caught off-guard as she saw Percy shoot forwards, her mind moving rapidly as she ducked low to avoid his first swipe, only to then have to raise of her fans in a cross above her head to block an overhead slice as Percy twisted his wrist and redirected his blade with far more ease than she thought possible.
Following this up Suki was caught completely of guard as Percy took another step forward before he lashed out with his left leg, his leg at knee height and his hip slightly twisted as he unleashed a kick into her chest, the force of the blow knocking her off her feet and sending her onto her arse.
Looking up from this, Suki once again found the tip of Percy's blade at her throat, his sea green eyes twinkling as she scowled up at him. No doubt she was pissed at how fast the second confrontation had ended.
"Just because I told you to tone down the flips and such, doesn't' mean that you should remain static. When facing a stronger and more experienced opponent, it is always better to give ground and look for openings. Learn their style of fighting, look for their weaknesses and then act. Don't try and go blow to blow with them, not unless you know you can win in such an exchange." Percy said, switching his sword to his other 'hand', before he took Suki's hand and pulled the younger girl to her feet.
"Again, though this time I want you to use your bending as well." Suki said, nodding to Percy as he pulled her to her feet, before she took a half dozen steps back and once again extended her fans. This time though she took a different stance, her right leg raising and her body twisting side on, even as she shifted one fan so it was partially covering her face, whilst the other was extended behind her.
Percy grimaced as he heard that. "Are you sure, it might be better to just keep it to melee combat for now."
"I want a full breadth of experience, just to see what I may one day be up against, we can work on the final details in later spars." Suki replied matter-of-factly, the girl being under no illusions that she would win. After all if she couldn't beat him when he just had a sword, then it was even more unlikely she would when he was bending as well. Still she wanted to face him at his best, after all he'd already exceeded her expectations, and already over the course of two spars become her benchmark for getting stronger. This was why she wanted to see the extent of his power, so she knew how far she had to go.
"You make it sound like this will be a daily occurrence?" Percy said his lips twitching upwards at the girl's confidence, before he once again took the same stance as before.
"Have you got anything better to do? Besides it beats flailing around with sticks." Suki responded with a grin. "Now come at me."
Percy rolled his eyes at that, though the smile didn't leave his face as he instead leant the blade of his ice sword on his shoulder, before he raised his free hand and thrust it forwards.
"Wha…" Suki began her brow furrowed, only to be cut off as a twelve foot high wave rose up from the sea before crashing down on her, soaking her to the skin and knocking her onto her arse.
Looking up from the ground, a steely glare was now on her face as she parted the curtain of sopping wet hair that now covered her face, her gaze now locked on the grinning Percy. She was not amused!
"First rule of fighting a 'Waterbender', don't fight them next to a water source." Percy laughed, a happy grin on his face as he saw the sour look Suki was still sending him.
( - )
AN: So what did you all think? I hope you enjoyed it. I quite liked writing it, and am especially looking forward to playing around with the Waterbenders and their abilities' relationship to Percy's. Suffice to say I have a lot of ideas to explore. On top of that I will be developing PErcy's abilities more than they were in the books, as there they kind of became a secondary thing and I don't feel they were ever truly explored as much as they should have been. Nor were Percy's powers when related to his father's other Domains, all of which I will be looking into and developing in this story. If I continue it.
Hope you all leave a review, and as always if you have a question feel free to PM me and I'll get back to you.
Thanks for reading and catch you later.
