As we came back to the camp, I only smiled when the other camper congratulate Clarisse for her big succeed on her first quest and judging by the fact that Ares didn't kill me, I did a good job to ensure that Clarisse will succeed. Some of the camper notice me and also congratulate me, and some of them even started to talk with Tyson a little. They are still uncomfortable with Tyson appearance, but they willing to look pass by that and started to befriend Tyson.

So with Chiron back, Mr. D looked a bit happier because at least he's free from Tantalus boring talk about his problem. So, yeah they continued the chariot race and Annabeth finally form a team with Percy, and finally I can have a breather. I quietly moved away from the crowd and walked into the woods by myself. I stopped when I arrived at the clearing where I fight with Luke when he defected to Kronos side.

"Reiner, my son"

I jumped straight into the river and whipped around, only to find Apollo stood there with innocent grin on his face. I grumbled as I massaged my chest, as an attempt to calm my furious heartbeat.

"Dad" I said shortly before walked into a dry ground again "Thank you for scaring me" I added sarcastically.

"Still sarcastic as ever I see" Apollo said while rubbed the back of his neck.

"Do you need something from me?" I asked while looked at his sky blue eyes.

"Ah, I just want to have a little talk with you" Apollo said and snapped his finger.

Two chair and a small table appeared near him and I only blinked at it. Like, seriously, where the god keep those thing?! In the empty air?! How could they created stuff just by snapping like that?! Heck, I want that kind of power too!

The two of us sat down on the table and Apollo expression began to change into serious one.

"Last night, The Fates decided to visit me" he began to spoke "They warned me about your future son"

I gulped "And?"

Apollo ran his hand through his blonde hair "Your future is uncertain, you are not bound by the prophecies. Basically, you can do whatever you want. But..."

"Consequences" I finished "There will be consequences"

Apollo gave me sympathetic looks "Your fate is bigger than I've ever seen, it can decided the fate of the world itself. With your knowledge and power, you can basically made us into our knee" then he paused for a moment "Some of the gods wanted to kill you, but some of them wanted to watch you grow. What kind of hero would you be? Will you choose their side, the other side, or the worse, both you destroy of the side"

I only stared at his blue eyes, didn't say a word, just listening.

"Luckily, the gods decided not to kill you, yet" Apollo finished "You are dangerous, but you also an asset for us for the future battle. As Athena said, you are like a double edge sword, a danger for us but also a danger towards the enemy"

"I see" I said and looked at my hands "Is that all?"

"The thing that happened when you fought with Luke" Apollo said in sad tone "I didn't what to say about that. You do seemed look like Hades when Zeus pissed him off, but I sensed something older and crueler inside of you. I never seen such malice in one person" Apollo then closed his eyes "Zeus want to incarnate you at the spot, but Poseidon managed to hold him back, saying that you are angry just because Luke hurt Percy."

Ah, yeah about that. I did promise Poseidon that I will protect his son, so either he really believed his words, or he did that to protect me. But, after that stunt, will he be still believe me? I did sense Kronos also taking part that day, I can fell him control a part of my body and mind.

"But, I'm still proud of you" Apollo said and smiled "Hades might be claiming you, but you are still my son"

I smiled a bit at his words "Thank you, dad"

"Also" he leaned back and put his usual face "Aphrodite really fancy you"

I instantly blushed at his words "Uh, what?"

"I agree that she's a very beautiful goddess." Apollo said while tapping his chin "But, it's will be weird if you suddenly have sex with her and have kids. Because, that will make her my daughter in law. And we basically are like siblings"

I sent him dirty looks "Dad, I'm still under age"

Apollo grinned at me "Well, I can see why she liked you so much" the he ruffled my hair "You got my undeniably handsome looks, charming, and have a gold voice"

"Uh, dad" I said while raised my finger "I can't sing. Like, my voice is ugly as fuck"

Apollo grin falter "Come again?"

"I can't sing, my voice is as bad as a dying whale" I said in amusement "I almost kill two people with it"

"NO!" Apollo wailed while face planted on the table "Of all things, HIS bloodline destroy that!"

"Well, at least my aiming still perfect" I said while crossed my arms.

"Musical Instrument!" he suddenly shot up from the table "Can you play that?"

"Uh, what?" I tilted my head.

"Guitar, Lyre, Violin!" he began to speak in high speed.

"I tried before" I mumbled and blushed slightly "And they forbid me to enter the music room again, or to touch any musical instrument" I grumbled "I mean, I never good at music department. Heck, even mom gave up on that part, even in school the music teacher forbid me to enter the music room and gave me an A- if I stayed away from his class for a semester"

"NO! Oh, for Zeus beard sakes!" Apollo sulked a bit "I never found my children would be that bad with music. They always have amazing music skill"

"Hey! I'm still good at aiming and I can heal people!" I pouted then I muttered to myself "Heck, I can understand about medicine plus I'm a Pharmacist you know"

"Well, I's understandable I guess" Apollo said and pouted "I mean from the appearance you are looks like a hybrid between me and that old man. So, I guess a few of my talent is get erased and replaced by his talent"

I intrigue when I heard that. So I can control the zombies, playing with black fire and summon the undeath? That will be so cool

"Well, got to go" Apollo said and check his watch "Zeus will kill me if I stay too long here"

I only nodded and stood up from the chair, Apollo followed my example and snapped his finger. All those table and chair are disappeared from my sight.

"Good bye son" he said and grinned at me brightly, gosh, those teeth almost blinding me "See you soon, and I hope you never join the other side"

After that I closed my eyes instantly when Apollo body began to glow and burst into a very bright super nova. When I opened my eyes, Apollo already gone and the sun almost set. I only sighed and looked at some random tree.

"Fuck me" I muttered "My life officially turned from worse into fucking hell"

Just a quick story though, so yeah, at that morning I was fell from my bed and woke up rather rudely. I heard a high pitch scream throughout the camp, so I stood up and ran, only to kiss the ground again. Basically, I'm still entangled on my blanket, after a few curses and a little more curse, I managed to untangle myself from my blanket, hurriedly wore shoes and ran to the outside. I stumbled a few times and finally stopped at a very weird sight. Thalia Grace, out cold, on Annabeth lap, and Annabeth froze in her spot. A crowd soon formed behind me and Chiron appeared not too long after that.

"Chi-Chiron" Annabeth stuttered as she looked at the girl on her lap.

"I guess, we play along into one of his trap" Chiron sighed heavily "Still, we have to help her"

The said girl slowly opened her eyes and I saw a pair of electric blue eyes. Thalia blinked a few times before she slowly pushed herself up, I saw Percy rushed towards the girl and helped her up. Thalia at first scanned Percy, then she looked at Annabeth, and then Chiron and then lastly me.

"Hey, are you okay?" Percy asked her.

"Kinda" she muttered "I'm just feeling a bit cramp and a bit hard to move my limbs"

I almost rolled my eyes at her, yeah, you just spend almost half of your life as a tree buddy, so yeah, cramp.

"What's your name?" Percy asked.

This time I didn't hesitate to tell the crowd the girl name was, I already heard about her tale for a couple of times. And those striking electric blue eyes, only one god had that.

"Thalia Grace, daughter of Zeus" I said clearly

And another player to Kronos stupid games, I added mentally. And great, another player means more job for me. What a beautiful life right?

And yeah, I'm being sarcastic!
