Ultimate Percy Jackson

By then end of the day they ended up in Denver. Needless to day Luke drove like a madman to get them there, and they only got pulled over like three times. Of course they got away with a little help from the Mist.

Percy and the rest now stayed in a motel at the edge of town and for dinner they went to dinner across the street. Inside they found a private booth at the back where they quickly sat down and ordered a huge meal. Needless to say after killing evil lake sports and driving miles on end they were all hungry.

"Here you go deary's," said the nice old woman who was their waitress, "one chicken burger for the young man with the pretty blue eyes," that was Percy, "a mac and cheese combo for the young gentleman," Luke, "and a steak for you handsome," Grover.

"Correct ma'am," Percy replied as he smiled at the woman.

"Oh you know how it is. I worked thirty years in this restaurant, I am very good at getting my customer's orders right. Now eat up," and with that the woman left them.

As soon as she did Percy grabbed the steak, Luke the steak and Grover the mac and cheese and Luke the burger. She was so sweet that they didn't have the heart to tell her she got the order's wrong.

As Percy carved into his steak he sighed happily, it had been a long time since he had dinner food and even longer since he had steak. The grease, the salt, the fat all combined will give a person either a feeling of bliss or a heart condition.

"So where to after this?" Percy asked Luke who was nearly halfway done with his burger.

"If we continue on this pace for the next day we should reach LA tomorrow afternoon," Luke repled.

"What about the car? Do you think Jet and the other would report it stolen?"

Luke shook his head, "no I explained to them to do so only after a week. So even if a cop pulls us over, and they are clear sighted or something, the car won't be reported as stolen."

Percy nodded as he continued to eat his steak. But just then;

Warning! Bloodl.u.s.t behind you! Origin:Ares!

Percy's eyes shot up when reading that text. He then quickly got up and turned around and there at the entrance of the dinner was Ares.

The god was in disguise true, but one look at him and any demigod would know who he really was. He wore a leather jackets with spikes on it and his hair was shaped like a mohawk. He looked around with his red shades behind which Percy could see glowing eyes filled with anger and power. Yup, that guy was definitely the god of war.

"Percy what's wrong?" Luke asked the boy.

"It-It's Ares. He's here," Percy stammered not daring to look away.

Ares then locked eyes with Percy and smiled. He then began walking to their booth and slid into the seat opposite Percy and right next to Grover, who looked like he was having a heart attack.

"Hello shitheads," the god of war said as he smiled at them.

"Lord Ares," Luke said while Grover bowed and Percy looked at his stats;

Ares, God of War, traitor

Dislikes the brat because he is a better fighter than his kids

Feels mostly angry at all time. He's Ares the god of war, what did you expect?

Ares turned to Percy, "so your the little shit that stole dad's lightning bolt."

"I didn't steal anything!" Percy yelled out.

"Percy that's enough," Luke said, "how may we assist you lord Ares?"

"Well at least one of you brats has manners," Ares said as he eyed Percy's stake, "that a good looking stake coral."

Percy looked at him and then his steak, "stop drooling over my steak."

Ares smirked, "well it's mine now, "he then reached for Percy's stake and pulled it away from the boy.

Percy saw this and looked at Ares questioningly, 'oh hell no! F.u.c.k you a.s.s hole!' He then immediately pulled it back, "that's mine thank you very much."

Ares looked stumped at this and blinked several time, guess he never had people take their food back from him. "Give me that boy,"Ares growled out.

Warning! Bloodl.u.s.t detected! Origin, from that thing sitting next to you!

Percy wiped the screen away, "f.u.c.k off. If you want it get your own."

"You little shit," Ares reached for it again and Percy moved. He pulled out Riptide and pushed the end of the pen under Ares' neck.

"Reach for my stake again and I'm cut off your head and turn you into an ashtray," Percy growled out with his thumb right under the cap ready to flick it open at any point.

Ares looked at Percy and then the pen. He then smirked, "good reflexes kid." Suddenly Percy felt something cold press up against his neck.

Percy slowly looked back and standing behind him was Ares with his sword pressed up against Percy, "shit," Percy then watched the Ares carefully as he lowered Riptide.

The two Ares grinned as the one with the blade slowly merged with the one sitting down. He still had his blade up against Percy's neck and was grinning like a madman, "we gods can split ourselves into many different form. Like clones if you will."

Percy's eyes narrowed, "so not an illusion," which made sense. After all he had Gamer's mind, no illusion, no matter how strong, should not have any effect him.

"Nope," Ares said as he lowered his blade, "now I believe this is mine." Percy saw Ares reach for his steak and quickly pushed it to the floor.

Ares looked at Percy who simply smiled, "oops."

The god of war smiled, "ruthless, prideful and willing to do anything to win. It's like looking at a mirror."

Percy's smile fell at those words as the old waitress quickly came over.

"Oh dear what happened here?" the kind old lady asked.

"I'm sorry ma'am my hand slipped," Percy then picked up the steak and the still intact plate and gave it to her, "please tell the chef I enjoyed every bite I ate."

"Oh that's nice dear, do you want me to bring you another one?" she asked taking the plate.

"Oh please no it's okay," Percy then looked at Areas with narrowed eyes, "I lost my appetite."

Ares chuckled while the woman quickly walked away to the kitchen. Percy sat back down and crossed his hands, "so what the f.u.c.k do you want."

"Already don't like me huh?" Ares said with a grin.

"You tried to steal my meat."

"If this was ancient Greece men would have offered me their wives. And when I made them m.o.a.n like their husbands never could they would thank me and give me half their wealth."

"Than it's a good thing this isn't ancient Greece huh?"

"Haha, if only," Ares said with his eyes flashing brighter behind his shades.

"If you do not mind me asking Lord Ares," Luke asked stressed, "why are you here?"

"Oh right, I need you three to get something for me."

"Nope," Percy repled crossing his hands.

"Percy!" Luke called out, "stop trying to piss of the god!"

"He stole my steak!"

"Attempted to steal you steak," Ares corrected as he smiled at the fight Luke and Percy were having.

"Look can we do this later?" Luke said with a sigh. Percy frowned and looked away.

"As I was saying, I need you three to get something for me. I was on a date a few days again and I lost my shield in the Waterpark. I would go there and get it myself but I frankly would rather want you to get it."

"Why?" Percy frowned.

"Percy gods are restricted by the ancient laws, the only way they can give help in any form to questers is as a reward. I'm sure Lord Ares is just giving us a simple task so that he can reward us later," Luke explained in a very scripted like tone.

Percy then turned to Ares, "and why do you want to help us? Isn't war kind of your thing?"

Ares grinned a mad grin, "my reasons are my own. You either accept this or you don't. That's all."

Percy narrowed his eyes at Ares but then relented, "so what's the reward?"

Ares smiled and pulled out three rings and laid them out on the table, "these."

Percy picked one up and observed the;

Rings of Invisibility;

The wearer of these rings is given invisibility for one whole day.

Time remaining- 24 hours

"I got these from my brother," Ares explained, "grants the user 24 hours of invisibility. You can use them to get into Hades's palace."

"So you are just willing to give us these?" Percy asked putting the ring down, "no strings attached."

The god of war smirked, "see, aren't I a generous god?"

Percy nodded, "yes. But I'm still not giving you my steak."

The god frowned, "you still don't understand just who you are talking to do you boy. But no matter. You will learn respect for me in time."

"I don't think I would ever-" Percy began.

"-Thank you lord Ares, we will get right on this," Luke interrupted Percy.

Percy frowned but kept quiet shooting Luke a dirty look. The god gathered the rings and then got up, "bring my shield back here in two hours time."

Soon after the god left Percy turned to Luke, "why the hell are you so eager to kiss his ass?!"

Luke frowned, "Percy you already managed to piss of Hades and Zeus, two of the strongest gods in Greek myth. I would rather not have the literal god of combat come after us as well."

Percy scowled but kept quiet. He then spent the rest of the meal in deep contemplation. Why was Luke was pushy right now? Before he was so laid back leaving everything to Percy but now...did he want us to do the quest for some reason? Was Are the one who Alecto found Luke talking to?

But why? Did Luke contact Ares before had to arrange all this? Why would the god even agree to that? Percy's head spun as he felt a headache come on. Something didn't add up. He was looking at only half the picture, the rest were missing.

After paying for the bill Percy and the rest got into their car and drove to the Waterpark. The place was empty, abandoned really, so obviously it was closed. Luckley jumping really high was one of the first things Percy learned how to do. He jumped over the fence and opened the gate from the inside.

"So where exactly is this tunnel of love?" Grover asked as he looked around the abandoned place.

"Let's take a look," Luke said turning to the map. There in the center of the park was a boat ride called, 'Thrill Ride O'Love' "I think this is it. We should go straight ahead and then take a left."

Percy nodded and the three did just just. Soon they came to the love tunnel which was unsurprisingly was a water tunnel shaped like a pink heart. The tunnel was decorated on the side with statues of cupid along with other omatic stuff like hearts and fishes. Wait….fishes? Well to each their own.

On top of the tunnel was a sign that said, 'Thrill Ride O'Love: This is not your parents tunnel of Love!'. The tunnel was now empty leaving behind only a big concret skating halfpipe but Percy could feel the water in the pipes below.

Percy slide down and began walking into the tunnel. The tunnel was dark but luckily Grover was prepared as he took out a torch light lighting their way in. Inside the tunnel was covered with mirrors on all side, if someone was to go into this thing they would always have a good view of the person they were with.

"Where did he say his stupid shield was?" Percy asked.

"Don't know," Luke replied, "he just said it was in here somewhere."

"Guy's I'm getting something," Grover replied, "like a scent."

"Really? Do you think it's Ares's sent?" Luke asked.

"Yeah Grover does it smell like old gym socks?" Percy asked causing all three boys to snicker.

"Haha, no. It smells...well it smells kinda good actually," Grover said, "like Juniper leaves."

"Do you actually think there is something down here that smells of Juniper leaves?" Percy asked in a mocking tone, "come on man we are in a concert tunnel in the middle of an abandoned amus.e.m.e.nt park ride. There is no way a plant is growing here."

"Hey don't blame me. The nose smells what the nose smells."

"Okay Grover," Luke said nodding, "but either way it is better if we stay alert. No telling what we might find down here."

The other two agreed as they all went deeper inside. There in the middle of the room was a bullet proof vest, but Percy's Observing skill showed what it really was.

Shield of Ares,

It is the shield of Ares which is charmed to be unbreakable and can withstand godly amounts of force. It is also charmed to give the wielder a + 20% on all attacks.

Note: This shield has a secret compartment hidden inside of it. Object hidden :?

Percy looked at the box in surprise. Something was hidden inside that thing? Percy didn't know what and quite frankly anything Ares wanted to keep hidden Percy didn't want to find out. Probably some his anal beads or something "There it is," Percy said pointing at the vest.

"Woah, you sure Percy?" Grover asked as they walked up to the vest.

"Yup. Feels like him," Percy was getting pretty good at this lying thing.

Lie Success!

"Well okay then," Luke replied as he reached for the vest but the moment he picked it up something clicked.

"Oh what now?!" Percy yelled out as she and grover quickly ran to Luke who already had his sword out and ready.

Suddenly a loud creak could be heard as the wall on top of the tunnel opened revealing several robotic spiders that then jumped down and started to attack the three demigods.

"What the hell are these things?!" Grover yelled out as he pulled out his sword he got from a robot.

Percy then used Observe;

"Hephaestus made them," Percy called out as he punted one of the spiders into the wall.

"What makes you so sure?" Luke asked as he sliced a couple of them into pieces.

"They feel like the robots we fought in the forge!" Percy called as he helped defend Grover while the Satyr used his reeds to form vines to attack the robots with, "plus they are freaking robots! Who else but Hephaestus?!"

"True," Luke said as quickly between Luke's slicing, Grover's vines and Percy's constant use of the moisture around them to shortcircuit the spiders, all of the robots died quickly.

Ping!

Total Exp gained: 600 Exp!

"Well…. that was easy," Grover said kicking one of the dead spiders. Just then a bigger rumble roared out as suddenly the entire tunnel started to shake. The roof above them split opened and down came a giant Spider, 8 feet big with bronze legs and red eyes. It looked at the three questers in front of it and hissed steam out of it's mouth.

"FOR F.U.C.K'S GROVER SHUT THE F.U.C.K UP AND STOP JINXING US!" Percy shouted.

The spider jumped towards them causing the three to jumped away in order to not get crushed. Percy and Grover ended up on one side with Luke on the other. Percy then Observed the beast;

Great, just great.

Percy closed the box and looked at the spider as it attacked them with it's sharp and pointy legs. It was slow as Percy managed to grab Grover and dodge it easily. He then moved away as Luke began to attack the thing with his sword distracting it for the time being. Percy then reached into the water pipes underneath them and he pulled the water out and up to the tunnel flooding the concrete half pipe with water once again.

"Percy what the hell?!" Luke called out as Percy directed the huge amounts of water into the form of a giant snake that grabbed the spider between its jaws. It then lifted the spider and smashed it into the ground and bite down shattering it's entire body into pieces.

"Warn us next time you are going to do that Percy!" Luke yelled out as he slowly walked over to him and Grover.

"Sorry, kind of focused on creating the whole giant snake thing," Percy replied coldly as he walked over to the decomposing robotic spider.

The spider left behind 300$ and a small robotic spider. Percy put the money way and Observed the spider.

Spy Bug,

A tool that once attached to any person will turn invisible and record whatever the person sees. It can only be seen by the person who used the bug and only he/she can remove the bug from the spied on person.

Percy quickly put the bug way into his inventory and turned to Luke and Grover, "we should probably go now."

Luke sighed, "yeah. Okay let's go."

Ping!

Congratulations you leveled up!

WARNING: The only way to stop this is to either kill Percy, shock Percy awake with something surprising or have no more enemies left to kill. (Permanent)

Percy smiled at this and closed his status box. They quickly walked away from the tunnel but as they walked away Grover spoke up.

"Guys the juniper leaves scent is getting stronger now," he pointed at a turn in the tunnel, "it should be right there."

Percy readied his sword, last thing they needed was some kind of monster that loured demigods with a sweet scent only to kill them in cold blood. As they took the turn in the tunnel they were released to see no monster there hiding in wait for them. Inside all they found was a scarf;

Scarf of Aphrodite,

Enchanted to smell like the perfect scent for each individual person, this scarf is charmed with love magic causing the wearer to have +10 levels in all skills that involve seduction, example, Kissing, flirting.

Percy picked up the scarf, "it feels like the Aphrodite kids."

Lie success!

"So it must be Aphrodite's scarf," Luke deduced, "must be who Ares was on a date with. It also explains why it smells so nice. It must be charmed to smell like whatever the smeller thinks is a beautiful scent."

"Which is why Grover smelled Juniper leaves," Percy said with a grin.

"Oh isn't that sweet," Luke said in a mocking tone, "Grover thinks the most beautiful scent in the world if Juniper!"

"Knock it off you guys!" Grover cried as PErcy and Luke chuckled in his expense.

Percy put the scarf in his bag and the three quickly got out of the god awful water park and quickly drove back to the dinner where in front of it Ares was waiting for them. He was on a motorcycle and when he saw them he smirked.

"Well, you three got in half an hour. I'm impressed," Ares replied smirking, "did that spiders give you any trouble? I remember Aphrodite saying how much they scared her."

Percy smiled back, "no they didn't give us any trouble. Although I am surprised they were still there surely the god of war could have killed a few bugs to impress his date."

Ares grumbled, "yeah well I needed to leave something for you kids to do."

Luke then handed the vest over to Ares, "your shield my lord."

"Thanks kid," Ares grumbled and took the vest. He snapped his finger and suddenly the vest turned into a shield which Ares gave to Percy, "here consider it a bonus for getting rid of the spiders. Those things are nasty, one of them once caught me in the shower."

Percy reached out nervously but took the heild anyway, "thanks."

Ares nodded. He then took out the three rings, "here as promised, three rings of invisibility. Use them wisely."

Each quester took a ring and put it into their pockets. Luke then spoke up, "thank you so much for helping us lord Ares. It means a lot."

Ares grumbled like worker being forced to clean up the store by his boss. He then looked at Percy and glared, "stay alive kid."

Percy then watched Ares ride away in that loud thing he called a vehicle, "could that be considered as a warning or an order?"

"Oder most likely," Luke replied as he sighed, "let's go get some sleep you guys. We will need it tomorrow we reach LA."

Percy nodded as they all then wene to their motel. Percy put his bag and the new shield of Ares to the side. He couldn't put it in his inventory because Grover and Luke would then ask questions so he was forced to carry the stupid thing.

After a nice hot shower and a later night movie Percy and the rest of the quest members crashed. Only Percy wasn't asleep, he had his eyes closed but he didn't let sleep take over. He stayed awake waiting. Waiting for something to happen. Luke was up to something, and is Percy was right about his suspicions he will do something tonight.

As the clock struck 12 Luke started to move. Percy opened his eyes slightly and watch Luke as he put on his shoes to step out. Percy immediately reached out with his mana and thought out, 'Shadow Spying.'

Percy felt his mana infect Luke's shadow as the son of Hermes closed the door behind him. Now all Percy had to do was wait and hear what Luke was up to.

Percy closed his eyes and he heard footsteps. Not his or in this room, but Luke's. Luke was walking on hard concrete now tiles. The swimming pool outside the motel then. He then heard something ruffle as Luke then spoke out, "Oh Iris goddess of the Rainbows accept my offering. Show me Lord Ares."

Percy's eyes widened at that but he quickly focused back on Luke, this was it, this was Luke's dirty little secret.

"I was wondering when you would call," came the rough voice of Ares.

"I waited till everyone was asleep," Luke replied, "did you hide the lightning bolt in the shield?"

"Yes, I put it in the handle, exactly as planned. Just make sure you get the sea sc.u.m to Hades and make sure he delivers it to Hades before you toss him into the pit."

"R-right," Luke's voice was hesitant.

"Why the hesitation? This was your plan from the start, don't tell me you're backing out now."

"No I am not! The plan will go on schedule. You still have the helmet of Hades yes?"

"Yeah I got it. I still don't know how you managed to steal the Lightning Bolt and the Helmet of Darkness."

Luke replied something but Percy wasn't paying attention. He cut off his shadow spying skill and sat up from his bed. He walked over the Are's shield that was propped up and felt around the ends of the handle. He felt something in the corner of the handle, something stitched in. Percy ripped out the threads and there poking out at the end of the handle was a neon blue lightning bolt.

Everything fell into place. Everything made sense now. Luke was the Lightning Thief. Percy felt betrayed, he felt like Luke had ripped his head off his shoulders and then kicked it like a soccer ball.

Why did Luke do this? Why did he steal the Master bolt? Percy knew he was angry at the gods for abandoning their children, but this? Would he really start a war?

Percy pulled the Master Bolt out of the shield handle and held it in his hand. It was a cylinder which had a lightning bolt stuck inside of it and on either ends had a conical structure extending out.

Zeus Master Lightning Bolt,

The ultimate weapon of Zeus this is the most deadly instrument in the Greek Pantheon. Crafted by Briareus, Cottus and Gyges, the hundred handed giants, this weapon in one of three. It's full potential can only be reached when wielded by Zeus or a child of Zeus.

Damage: 9,000,000 Attack!

Percy's hands trembled, this thing was genuine, which meant Luke is the Lightning Thief and that son of Hermes planned to kill him the moment he stepped into Hades.

And just then Percy remembered something. Something the oracle of Delphi warned him about;

You shall be betrayed by one who callssss you friend,

Luke. It was look who will betray him. No...he already did. And just like that another part of the prophecy made scene;

You shall go wessst, And face the God who has turned.

The god who turned. At first both Chiron and Percy thought it meant Hades, but no. It was Ares. He was the god who turned.

Gamer's mind immediately came into effect as it helped Percy process all of this. His emotions came down and ideas on what to do next started to generate.

'Okay Luke wants to kill me. My advantage, my abilities which he doesn't know and the fact that I know it's coming. His advantage, he is being backed up by Ares himself.' Percy knew he couldn't put the lightning bolt into the shield again, it wouldn't be properly hidden. So Percy tossed the weapon of destruction in his inventory and put the shield back where he left it before.

Percy then went to bed just as Luke came in. Luke didn't look at Percy and promptly crashed into his own bed. Percy looked at his friend, no, former friend, and Observed him.

Luke Castellan in the son of Hermes, at a young age he saw his mother lose her mind and when father was not there to help her, his hatred for the gods began. Luke loves all of his family, even the extended members and is a person who would help them in an instant. Luke hates the Olympian for abandoning their children and wants to wage war on them all by stealing the lightning bolt and the helmet of Hades.

Luke considers Percy his little brother and wants to protect him.

Luke is feeling conflicted about betraying Percy.

The last part in his info was new, guess it was something Percy could only read after he knew Luke was the lightning thief. Percy then became conflicted about what he should do with Luke when he read about how feel about him.

Luke was feeling conflicted too, he didn't want to do this. Maybe Percy could use that doubt and somehow save his mom while not having to fight Luke.

Percy was ashamed at how he was thinking. Gamer's mind made everything objective, so h could only think about what he could use to survive. It was a horrible way to think about someone, Percy knew that, but in the end it was either him of Luke.

So Percy closed his eyes and let sleep take over, Luke wouldn't kill him in his sleep, he needed him.

Ping!

You have slept in a bed; HP and MP have been restored 75% each. All ailments and negative status effects have been cured.

Percy and the others started early the next day. They started the drive at around 6 in the morning and drove quickly stopping only for food and bathroom breaks. Percy used Gamer's mind a lot that day. Every moment Luke made Percy analyzed and judged whether he was going to kill him or not. So far Percy managed to put on a neutral face, but it was cracking. Luke and Grover asked him several times why he was so angry, and he just waved it off saying he was nervous.

Eventually they reached LA by sundown.

Percy stepped out of the vehicle and looked around. Right now they were parked at an overview point so that Percy could see everything in Hollywood. To his right was the famous Hollywood sign and in the far distance was the Pacific ocean.

"Where exactly is the entrance to Hades anyway?" asked Grover as he popped up on the runck of the car.

"You have lived in the world longer than me, I was hoping you would know," Percy replied looking over his shoulder.

"I think it's best we spend one more night in a motel and head out for the Underworld tomorrow," Luke said with a smiled.

'Why does he want to do that? Is he going to try and go into Hdes himself while we sleep?' Percy thought as he put on a smile on his face, "good idea Luke. We need to be alert and ready."

Luke nodded happy. He then sat next to Grover on the hood of the car looking at the view. Percy remained silent but inside he knew that this was it. It was all going to go down tonight.

After an hour of sitting on their car and enjoying the view, the questers all went to a motel. The motel was right next to the beach, something Percy insisted on and as soon as they entered their room they all promptly collapsed into their respective beds. Only Grover slept while Luke and Percy pretend to sleep.

Percy then waited and at around 10 Luke got up again. He then went to Ares's shield and began to search it for the lightning bolt. "Shit!" Percy heard Luke whisper as he then promptly walked out of the room, probably to Iris message Ares or something.

Percy got up and put on his shoes. It was time. It was time for him to confront the Lightning Thief. Percy opened up his status page and quickly used up his stat points.

He didn't have enough to improve his speed to Luke's level and his agility was never going to reach Luke's 56. So Percy put it in the one thing that might give him a fighting chance, his luck. Logically speaking Percy should just take out the Master bolt and zap Luke into ashes, but this...this was personal.

Percy left the room leaving a sleeping Grover behind. He then quietly snuck to the ground floor and to beach, the only place Luke could make an Iris call.

Percy walked into the sand and kept his head low as he approached a figure standing in the beach with a torch light. The person was obviously Luke.

Luke walked up to the waves and used the mist coming off the waves to form a rainbow. "Oh Iris goddess of the Rainbows accept my offering. Show me Lord Ares," Luke called out as slowly the rainbow turned into a window showing Ares.

"What brat?" the god of war asked in a rough tone.

"Where is the lightning bolt?!" Luke screamed.

"Are you deaf? I told you it is in my sheild!"

"Well it's not there now! I checked the handle, nothing!"

"Impossible! Unless- behind you!" Percy jumped up and slashed Riptide downwards cutting the message off and nicking Luke in the shoulder.

"Percy?!" Luke shouted out as held onto his bleeding shoulder, "what the hell are you doing?!"

"Luke," Percy replied in a low voice, "you are the Lightning Thief."

Luke's eyes went wide, "Percy I can explain."

"Enough!" Percy yelled out as he attacked Luke. Luke drew out his own blade and bronze metal bronze as slowly Percy pushed Luke back with each strike.

"I didn't want to do it Percy," Luke cried out as he dodged a swing from Riptide.

"Shut up!"

"I wanted to go to Hades myself and trade the Lighting bolt for your mother! I didn't want you to find out this way!"

"You are the reason she is there in the first place!"

"No! She is there because the gods don't care about humans!" Luke then crossed his blade with Percy and held it there, "they use us humans like they use everything! Just look at all the people we meet Percy! Edward ran away because he couldn't take it any more! Chirsty-"

"Shut up!" Percy cut Luke off as he kicked Luke back into the sand. He then swung down at Luke only for the son of Hermes to doge at the last second by rolling away. Luke got up and began his attack on Percy, he was faster but his bleeding shoulder held him back. Percy however was relentless, he could feel his anger grow with every swing he took at Luke, his Gamer's mind couldn't keep up.

Slowly Luke watched in horror as Percy's eyes turned from green to a golden yellow, just like the Titan that haunts his dreams.

Ping!

Percy however wasn't paying attention. All he cared about was killing Luke. He smashed Riptide into Luke's blade and then pushed harder and harder until Riptide cut Luke's blade in half. Percy drew back and fist and threw it at Luke, "EARTHQUAKE FIST!"

The fist smashed into Luke's ribs breaking a few of them and sending the don of Hermes flying off and into the sand.

Percy then jumped at Luke with Riptide but suddenly the son of Hermes pressed an open palm on the sand and shouted out, "beast summoning!"

A large green circle appeared in the sand and a gust of wind pushed Percy back on his a.s.s. The yellow eyed boy's fury pushed him forward, made him go beyond his limits. Percy got up almost at once and saw the figure that now stood before him.

It was the Chimera. The legendary beast of myth with the body of a lion, and two extra heads in the form of a goat and a snake's on it's tail. And right next to it was a panting and tired was Luke holding his broken ribs. The son of Hermes turned to the Chimera, "take care of him."

The Chimera roared as the Lion opened it's mouth sending out a blast of fire right at Percy. The fire drew closer but before it burnt Percy the demigod flashed away in a burst of speed.

When the fire died down the Chimera looked around for the charred remains of Percy but found nothing. He heard a rustle in the wind and quickly all three head turned to the left. But the only thing there was a small foot sized pit in the sand.

Just then they heard another rustle and they turned to the right only to find a similar pit there as well. Suddenly the result came from all around them. They turned all around, each head going it's own way but the only thing they saw was a blur of black.

"Up front," came a voice in front of them. The lion's head turned just in time to see a punch connect with it's face, "Earthquake Fist!"

The Chimera flew back from the force of the impact into the sea. It looked up, it's lion's head was destroyed now. It looked to the yellow eyed demigod as a hint of fear crept into it's heart.

Percy raised a single hand up and all the water around the Chimera moved. It trapped the Chimera into a sphere of water as slowly the pressure started to build up. As a last ditch attempt to escape the goat head blasted out a ball of fire that exploded causing the sphere of water to collapse and the Chimera was thrown out.

Percy walked upto the Chimera, it wasn't moving, but it was still breathing. He looked down at it, his face not showing any mercy. He drew back a fist and punched the Chimera again, again and again. He ripped into it's body with just his fingers as slowly the thing started to die from the pain alone.

In it's last moment of life the Chimera looked into the yellow eyes of the demigod that was killing it by literally ripping it apart and so nothing by fury. Slowly it began to disintegrate into nothing leaving behind a frustrated Percy and several loot items.

Ping!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stat points!

Percy ignored the box as he got up from the dusty remains of the Chimera and looked around for Luke. Instead of finding the son of Hermes Percy found he was alone in the beach with nothing else in sight. With no one else to fight Percy opened his mouth and roared. "ROARRR!"

The son of Poseidon then collapsed to his feet and slowly his eyes turned green again;

Ping!

Perk: 'Le Bete' has been deactivated! Your states have change back to normal.

Percy looked up and saw the remains of the monster has had killed in less than a minute. The curse he bore truly was powerful for him to have destroyed one of the most dangerous monsters in Greek Mythology.

Just then;

Ping!

You have gained a new perk!

Chimera's blood- Allows user to temporarily take on one trait from the last monster he killed. The user can use this trait for however long he wishes. (Example- A Cyclop's resistance to fire.)

Note: The Chimera doesn't count.

Now how did I get that? Percy figured it was one of the rewards for kill the Chimera. He checked his Exp and saw he got + 30,000 Exp. He then checked the body and found 1000$ and a skill book: Fireball.

Percy put the book and money away, he didn't have time to deal with this now. Luke was gone, probably snuck away while Percy was killing the Chimera. Right now Percy was on his own. Well he had Grover but the well meaning Satyr would only drag him down. With him around Percy can't use his full abilities.

Percy took out the Gauntlet of Kefka and summoned Alecto. She formed out of the smoke and bowed, "Master."

"Do you know how I can get to Hades?" Percy asked the Fury who nodded, "good. Then take me there right now."

Alecto picked up Percy and flew him across the LA night sky. Eventually they ended up in front of a building with the sign DOA Recording Studio, huh figures. Percy then turned to Alecto, "how much does Hades trust you?"

"He considers me one of his most loyal subjects," Alectos replied.

Percy nodded, "then you are the one who can get closest to him." Percy then reached into his inventory and pulled out the chains of Hephaestus, "hide this on your person somehow and go ahead of me. Once you are inside go and inform Hades you just reformed, once he dismisses you sneak into the throne room and wait for me. When I give the key word, bind, throw these on Hades and bind him tightly."

Alceto nodded as she took the chains and walked into the building. Percy was betting a lot on her, but he had faith this would work, it had to work. Percy waited a few minutes after Alecto went in and then walked into the place.

Inside was a basically a large waiting room with a tall black man in a very nice white Armani shut sitting in the receptionist post. Crowding the room were several people all walking about like zombies, aimless and lifeless. Percy walked up the man and used Observe,

Charon,Ferry Man

Lv-?

HP:?

MP:?

Str-?

Vit-?

Dex-?

Int-?

Wis-?

Luc-?

The god of boundaries and territories, Charon is the one who ferries the dead to the Underworld. He accepts bribes to take people who are not dead into the Underworld and is known for his tastes in fine suits.

He has no opinion on Percy

He is feeling extremely bored

Percy walked up to the man, "hello. I need to go to the Underworld."

The man looked at Percy, "well it is refreshing to hear that being said for once. None of that, 'there must be a mistake , I'm not supposed to be dead Mr. Charon' bullshit. However I must decline, your not dead."

Percy reached into his inventory and pulled out 10 drachman and put it on charon's desk.

The man looked at the coins and then to Percy, "are you trying to bribe me?"

"Yes," Percy replied.

"Well it's not going to work. And beside what-" Charon however was cut of as Percy put an extra 20 drachma into the pile. "That's a lot of coin."

"And it can all be yours, for just one ferry ride across," Percy replied. The man then looked at the coin and then to Pray before reaching up to grab them. Percy smiled at this, "glad we can do business."

"Who are you kid?" Charon asked as he checked the authenticity of each coin.

"Percy Jackson."

"Well Percy Jackson, you just earned yourself a trip into the Underworld," Charon said with a smirk. He put the coins aside and walked to the elevator behind the desk. The inside was stuffed full of people but Percy didn't mind. He moved in and Charon joined them.

"Going down!" Charon called out as the doors closed.

Percy then waited for the elevator to go down, but it didn't, the elevator moved forward. Percy was pushed back by the sudden movement and suddenly they were all covered by a bright light that blinded them all.

Percy opened his eyes and blinked out the effects of the sudden light. When his vision cleared up the Underworld was present in front of him in all it's unholy glory.

The elevator had changed into a boat that was crossing a dark murky river filled with the souls of the damned. Percy looked ahead and saw the whole of Underworld. There was a huge wall in front of him, like the ones in prison. At the center of the wall was a big opening that allowed the spirits of the dead in, and there standing gaurd over this opening was a huge three headed dog.

Cerberus,

Lv-?

HP:?

MP:?

Str-?

Vit-?

Dex-?

Int-?

Wis-?

Luc-?

The guardian of the Underworld, Cerberus is found to be a fierce gaurd dog and it's ferocity is only matched by the legends surrounding it. It fight this beast is to sign off on your own death, which incidentally is the only way that thing is letting you through.

Kill to gain- 70,000 Exp.

Percy reached into his pocket and took out the ring of invisibility that Ares gave him. He was about to put it on to, when he stopped.

The original plan was to be quiet about it, he needed to make sure Luke and Grover was safe when they were in here. But now only Percy was here and he could do whatever the f.u.c.k he wants. So it was time to make a statement.

Percy put away the ring and took out Zeus's Master Bolt. He looked at the weapon, 'how do you even use this thing? Do you throw it?' Percy pointed it at Cerberus and waved it around, 'nop nothing. Maybe I should yell fire or-'

BOOM!

Out of one end of the cylinder like structure a stream of lightning flew out. The moment the lightning touched the beast it exploded into golden dust.

Ping! Ping!

Percy looked at the golden dust and then at the Master Bolt. He then quickly pointed it away from his face, 'note to self always keep this thing pointed at the enemy.' Percy then looked at his status page and smiled at the upgrade. Just then;

Ping!

Perk Chimera's blood has activated! Which trait of Cerberus's do you wish for?

Shadow traveling

Aura sensing

Ice Breath

Percy looked at this new box with a look of concentration, 'so this is how Chimera's blood worked.' He first clicked Shadow Traveling;

Shadow Traveling,

Allows user to travel between the shadows of the world. You can however only travel to the shadowy areas of places you have been before as you are not a child of Hades.

The rest were pretty self explanatory for Percy so he didn't bother cl.i.c.k.i.n.g on them. They most useful thing to him it seemed was Shadow Traveling, after all he already had a way to sense people and teleportation beats Ice Breath any day of the well.

So he pressed Shadow Traveling again;

Are you sure you want to learn Shadow Traveling for your Chimera's blood perk?

YES/NO?

Percy pressed yes and felt something change inside of him. He felt more flexible, more alert. Suddenly the shadows didn't seem to end in the ground, they seemed to lead into something else entirely.

Ping!

You have gained a new perk by killing Cerberus!

Canidae Tamer- user of this perk can control members of the Canidae family, like dogs, wolves and foxes, with relative ease. This also includes magical beasts like werewolves and Hellhounds!

Percy grinned at gaining the new perk and then looked at the Loot left behind. There was 50,000 $ which he immediately put away for safekeeping.

Then there was a black wrist band with metal spikes studded all round it;

Arm Band of Cerberus;

+1000 HP

+1000 MP

+ 10 levels to all skills involving darkness or shadows (Example: Smoke form)

Percy put on the item and immediately felt the energy flow into him. He smiled, and then moved to the next item. This one was a skill book and it read, 'Death Touch' The skill looked pretty powerful but Percy didn't need to learn anything new right now.

He tossed the book into his inventory and wine to the last Loot. It was a circular coin which was a big as his fist. On it was the number 10 carved into it;

Skill Disk,

A disk when used will automatically level up one particular skill of your choosing. The number of levels that will be improved in written on the disk.

Percy grinned at this. This meant he could level up really really difficult skills very easily in the future. He would need to think very carefully on what he used it on, but right now he didn't have the time. So Percy put the disk away and began to move. He then noticed all of the spirits of the dead look at him with fear in their eyes.

"Ah...hello?" Percy called out waving at them.

"D-did you just kill that thing?" one of the braver spirits asked Percy.

Percy smirked, "yup."

The spirit's eyes widened in fear and then hope, "we are free! Everyone run away!" The shock of what just happened broke as all the spirits moved. Most ran any from the Underworld and to the river as they tried to swing across. Without Cerberus here the underworld was out of control. And that was exactly what Percy wanted.

He then lifted up the gauntlet of Kefka and channeled mana into it. He then grinned as he pulled Cerberus out of the well of souls and slowly the giant dog reformed in front of Percy. Once solid it lowered all three heads in a deep bow.

"Hey Cerberus. I was wondering, can you give me a ride?" Percy asked with a sly grin.
