Ultimate Percy Jackson

Percy walked to the Poseidon cabin under the light of the moon and quickly took out the Space key Persephone gave him. If what she said was true then if he used this on any door it should bring his to Persephone's place. Percy put the key into the lock and turned. He pushed the door in and instead of the inside of Poseidon's cabin it was Persephone's room.

Percy entered and took out the key from the door. He then closed the door and when he opened it again it was the inside of Hades's palace instead of camp. Percy ran out of the room and headed to the throne room.

He walked into the throne room and inside he saw Persephone sitting in the throne with Hades as her foot rest. She looked up in genuine surprise, "Percy? Your back soon. I know I said to visit when you can but I thought you might take a few years."

Percy smiled, "I wish, but I'm not here for that. I'm here for Hades."

Hades looked up and slowly stood up. But Persephone then pulled his chain and force him into his knees, "oh hell no. You can talk but you do it on you knees."

Hades whimpered but nodded. He then turned to Percy and spoke in a defeated tone, "so what do you want kid?"

Percy reached into his inventory and pulled out the Helmet of Darkness, "I want to make you an offer you can't refuse."

Hades's eyes widened at the sight of the helmet and jumped to his feet to try and get it but Persephone still had the chain and so she pulled him back to his feet. But Hades didn't look bothered by that and simply looked at Percy, "okay what do you want?"

Percy smirked on the inside but kept a neutral face with the help of Gamer's mind, "all the demigods that died today, I want them back."

Hades's eyes widened, "what?! Oh hell no! No deal!"

"Why not?! You let Orpheus do it! He just walked in here, played a flute and you allowed him to take his lover back! Why not let me do the same, hell I'll raise you one better, I'm giving you back your freaking symbol of power!"

"It would have been fine if it was one person, maybe even three. But there is no way I can let you take 36 people back with you out of this place without getting into trouble with the Olympians!"

Percy was surprised at the number of people that died but he didn't let that deter him, "well then let me just take all of them. I'll figure something out, maybe I can bribe Zeus with his Master Bolt or something."

Persephone then spoke up, "let him do it Hades," the god then turned to his wife to argue but one look from her and he shut up. Persephone smiled at that and turned to Percy, "you realise if you do this they will come after you. The moment you take the souls out of the DOA they will be on you like hellhounds on meat. They might just send an Olympian to take you down, probably Ares."

Percy smiled, "I don't think Ares is going to do any moving around for some time. But that's not the point. I am willing to take that risk. Just give me a chance to save them that's all I ask. Do that and I'm willing to give back the helmet to you and loan you Cerberus."

Persephone smiled at that, "loan? I didn't realise he was yours now."

Percy shrugged, "he took a liking to me. Something about it being too depressing in the Underworld."

Lie Succeeded!

Ping!

A Skill has leveled up!

· Lying, Lv-9 (12%)

This is your ability to lie to people, the higher the level the better the lie and less chance of discovery!

45% chance of success, less based on how extreme the lie is.

Persephone nodded at that and then turned to Hades, "what do you think of that husband?"

Hades started to sweat, "anything you say dear."

The goddess then turned to Percy and snapped her fingers. In front of the demigod appeared a brown clay pot with a leather strap around it;

Container of souls;

Allows the containment of souls inside of it.

"That will allow you to carry the souls of your friends from out of this place," Persephone explained, "once you reach near their bodies only then release them, if not your friends souls will not know where to go and be forced to roam the world as ghosts."

"And what about their wounds? Like one of them had a big a.s.s fire arrow pierced through her," Percy asked.

Persephone waved the question away, "not a problem. The moment the souls enter the body all mortal wounds will automatically heal."

Percy nodded as he put the pot into his inventory. He then picked up the helmet and gave to Hades who accepted it gratefully.

"Thanks, maybe you're not that bad, for a son of Poseidon," Hades said as he clicked his fingers causing the helmet to vanish in a swirl of shadows.

Percy nodded, "thanks. And you aren't that bad of a guy, even though you kidnapped my mom and held her for ransom. In fact you probably are my favorite uncle, that I have met…."

"Well it's either me or Zeus, and you haven't even met him," Hades replied with a 'really?' look.

Percy smiled and scratched his head at that, "caught me there." Percy then quickly ran out of the throne room, "see you guys! I'll send Cerberus back to the Underworld after he recovers from his fight! I'll borrow him though from time to time!"

Persephone nodded, "sounds fair. I'm sure he would love the chance to go out and play in the sun, oh and before you go," Persephone snapped her fingers and a green marble appeared in Percy's hand.

Percy pocketed the marble and smiled, "thanks," he then continued to walk out closing the door behind him.

"Bye Percy!" Persephone said waving the demigods away. She then turned to her husband and then pulled on his chain, "so what's for dinner?"

"Why are you asking me that?" Hades crossed his arms definitely. Persephone then glared at him with the look of death until he gave in, "okay then I'll make something. Is pizza okay?"

Persephone glare turned into a smile as she bounced on the throne, "yup!"

Percy quickly ran out of the palace and ran through the Underworld eventually he reached the entrance of the Underworld and looked around for Charon, who wasn't here. Great, just great. Knowing that asshole he is probably buying some new suits with the money Percy used to bribe him.

The sad part was Alecto was half way across the country right now with the demigods, even if he could command her to come here it would take a long time and Percy didn't want to risk it. After all if what Persephone said was true, souls could get lost along the way and the last thing he needed right now was one of his servants haunting an ice cream shop or something. Hmm…. ice cream.

Percy sighed, now that he had some time to kill he pulled up his stats;

Health-1,750/1,750(+1000) = 2,750

Mana-1,100/1,100(+1000) = 2,100

The Gamer

Title- Son of Poseidon

(+20 Str,+20 Vit, +20 Dex, while in water)

Level-16 Exp- 352/59,000

Race-Demigod

STR-32

VIT-40(+5)=45

INT-30

WIS-32

LUC-40

POINTS-6

MONEY- 66,597$/286D

Right now his stats were pretty good, very well balanced. But if what Persephone said is true….then he would be facing an Olympian soon, and not the kind that could be tricked like Ares. Percy wondered why anyone ever takes that guy seriously, sure he never actually fought him fair and square but still the guy is an idiot!

Percy then dismissed the stats and looked up just in time to see Charon approach the banks of the Styx. Percy smiled as he drew out the Master Bolt, time to threaten the Ferryman. The moment the boat docked all the spirits got down, and after making sure none of them were demigods from camp, Percy walked to Charon who immediately noticed him.

"Percy? Oh hey man I'm surprised you're alive! Did you get what you came for? Hey...is that the-"

Percy cut the man off as he stuck the bolt into the man's face. He channeled some bloodl.u.s.t into his voice, "take me back to the other side or I will blast half your face off."

The Ferry man gulped, "ah...sure. No problem man."

Percy then held onto the helm of the boat as Charon took him back to the mortal realm. They passed the river Styx again and when the boat turned into an elevator Percy kept his eyes peeled, in case Charon did something.

The elevator then opened up showing the lobby of the DOA. Percy got out and turned to Charon, "thanks." Percy put away the bolt and flicked Charon a coin which the Ferryman caught easily.

Percy then took out the clay pot Persephone gave him and walked around the lobby looking for the spirits of his friends. Since they were new and just killed they should all be near the entrance, and the moment Percy thought that he located them.

The first person he saw was Travis Stoll, the boy was smiling and in the middle of a joke, probably trying to keep everyone's spirits up. Percy smiled at that and quite snuck up behind the group.

"...so I said, 'Conner dude, that's a tampon'. And believe me, he lost his shit!" Travis laughed as he healed onto his stomach causing a ripple of laughter to spread all over the little group.

"That's hilarious Travis," Percy said cutting in. Slowly all the demigods turned around and noticed him standing there. Percy then smiled, "hey guys, fancy seeing you all here."

"Percy?!" Travis quinones in aloud voice as he jumped onto Percy pulling him into a huge. "It's so good to see you!"

"Percy?" came a familiar voice from his left. Percy broke the hug and turned to see Annabeth standing there whole. She didn't have a huge cauterized whole in the middle of her c.h.e.s.t, in fact she looked normal, "what are you doing here? D-did you die?"

Percy shook his head, "no Annabeth I didn't. I came back for you, all of you," Percy then pulled the clay pot Persephone gave him, "whit this I will be able to send you guys back."

"B-but Percy you can't do that! The dead cannot come back to life!" Annabeth shouted while the rest of the demigods looked uneasy about that.

"It's okay I talked to Hades. We worked out a deal like Orpheus did. I gave him his helmet and in return he allowed me to take you guys out of here," Percy said smiling at them all.

Slowly the air around them changed, while before they were laughing the thought of death still hung around their heads, but now...now there was hope in their eyes.

"Well then what are you waiting for?!" Travis said breaking the silence that fell, "let's do this!"

"Percy are you sure you won't get into any trouble with Olympus because of this?" Annabeth asked with concern in her eyes. But below that Percy could see hope just like everyone else.

"Yeah, I'm sure I'll be fine," Percy said.

Lie Success!

Annabeth nodded slowly as Percy turned to the group and held the pot up, "now how do this thing work?"

"Well we are supposed to go in it," Travis said examining the thing, "maybe we should touch it?"

Percy nodded his head as Travis moved to do just that. The moment his finger touched the pot Travis disappeared in a ball of light and went into the pot.

"Okay then….who wants to go next?" Percy asked motioning to the pot.

One by one the demigods touched the pot and one by one they all went into it. Soon the last one there was Annabeth as she looked at Percy with a concerned look, "Percy who are you going to get us across the country before our bodies rote away?"

Percy smiled as he held up Persephone's pearl, "a gift from Persephone. Instant transportation."

Annabeth nodded, "alright then," she then neared the pot, "good luck Percy," and touched the pot.

In a flash of light she disappeared leaving Percy all alone. Percy then put the pot inside his inventory and quickly walked out of the DOA. The street outside was empty, very empty. He felt like someone, or something emptied this place out. Maybe he was just being paranoid though, maybe he was already seeing shadows where there wasn't any.

The night however was not dark, it was very bright. Percy looked up and saw the moon big and bright as it started him down. Percy felt more and more uneasy the longer he looked at it, it was almost like he was being warned about something.

Percy shook his head yeah okay he really was getting delusional. He then put the marble underneath his foot and crushed it, 'bring me to camp.' The familiar feeling of being transformed into a cloud seeped in as Percy then drifted away into the sky. Soon the world went by as a blur and just then everything stopped.

Percy found himself in the bottom of the hill leading to camp, the same place he fought the Minotaur. He got to his feet and moved, he needed to find their bodies fast. If he was to guess the campers must have put them all in one place, the Big House.

But just as Percy entered the tree line a blast of white light illuminated the entire forest as something appeared right in front of him. 'Great, they found me,' Percy thought as he looked up slowly to see who Zeus had sent.

There standing in Percy's way was a teenage girl around his age with auburn hair and silver eyes. She wore a silver parka with a quiver strapped onto her back and a bow in hand. Percy used Observe on her, though he kind of had a clue who she was;

Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt

Lv-?

HP:?

MP:?

Race-Olympian

Str-?

Vit-?

Dex-?

Int-?

Wis-?

Luc-?

The daughter of Zeus and the goddess of the Hunt Artemis is known for her hatred of men, which has been extremely exaggerated. She is the patron of all maidens and considers it her duty to protect them all. She leads the Hunt.

She sees Percy as her target for her mission

She is eager to complete her mission and get back to her Hunt

'Well….I'm screwed,' Percy thought to himself as he started to push Gamer's mind to his limits he needed a plan and until he came up with one he needed to distract the goddess.

"Hello there. Lovely day for a stroll in the forest isn't it?" Percy said putting on a lazy smile.

Artemis crossed her arms, "it is the middle of the night."

'So not much of a talker huh,' Percy however didn't stop smiling, "oh that it is, I never even noticed. Ah….can I help you with anything?"

Artemis raised an eyebrow, "yes you can. Are you Percy Jackson?"

Percy shook his head quickly, "no I'm Peter Johnson."

Lie Failed!

"You are a horrible liar boy," Artemis replied as she walked up to him, "but then again so are most boys."

"Oh hey now you are sounding just a little bit s.e.xist there," Percy replied as he walked backwards away from the forest.

"It's not s.e.xisim if it's true," Artemis rebutlled.

"No that's s.e.xist."

"No it isn't."

"Totally is."

"It isn't!"

"Define s.e.xism."

"Discriminating or the subjugation of women by men."

Percy looked at her in disbelief, "even you defination is kind of s.e.xist."

"That is its literal definition you get when googling for S.e.xism. You males are just that universally annoying."

"Well not all of us annoying. Me for sure," Percy admitted, he knew he had a very….irritating persona when dealing with important people, "and definitely not your dad, come on you can't even try to defend him," Artemis nodded, "but there are plenty of guys out there who are just nice people."

Artemis crossed her arms, "name one."

"Ah…."Percy then began to think. Edward? HELL NO! Michael? Neah, kind of a d.i.c.k. Travis and Conner? Nope far too mischievous. Jet? Nope. John? Nope. Chiron?...Chiron! "Chiron."

Artemis looked at Percy then blinked. "Ah….he is ah… he….. Olympus damn this! He doesn't count!"

"Why not?"

"His father is Kronos! A vile man who mistreated women!"

"Isn't your dad Zeus?" Percy countered back.

"He's a centaur!"

"Now you're being racist and s.e.xist!"

Artemis started to ground her teeth in anger, "shut up you annoying boy!" She then drew an arrow and launched it at Percy.

The son of Poseidon turned into his smoke form just as the arrow passed right through him. Percy then booked it as he flew into the forest and to Thalia's tree. He looked back in his smoke form and sure enough Artemis was right on his tail.

"Get back here!" Artemis cried out as she sent a blast of sliver energy at Percy forcing the boy to doge it, there was no telling whether godly energy could harm him or not in this form and right now he rather not risk it.

Percy weaved through the trees as he flew up and down avoiding all of the goddess's attacks. But just as Percy reached the camp barrier his time limit for his smoke form was up as he turned solid solid again.

"You really have anger issues!" Percy called back as he crossed the barrier into the camp. He jumped back as another arrow came flying for his head,

"Stay still so I can shoot you!"

"How about no?!" Percy called back as he transformed back into smoke and flew into camp. He quickly reached the Big House and turned back into his solid standing at the door was Michael who looked at Percy with side eyes, "Percy?! Since when can you do that?!"

"Not now Michael," Percy replied, "is everyone in there?"

The son of Apollo nodded, "yeah we got all their bodies in there. Did you do it?"

Percy nodded and took out the pot showing it to Michael. But before he could open it Artemis grabbed him by his collar and threw him towards the Amphitheater.

Percy looked back and saw the solid stone monument coming close, 'Marble skin!' Percy put around 100 MP into the skill turning his body dense. He then crashed into the stone stands and slid across destroying it.

Ping!

Skill leveled up!

· Physical Endurance, Lv-18 (20%)

Your Body's durability increased and you take less damage.

42% less damage from physical attacks.

Percy got out of the ruble and looked around for the pot. But before he could search for it Artemis appeared in a flash of light and stood in the middle of the Amphitheater with an arrow locked onto Percy.

"Don't move boy," the goddess warned as she narrowed her eyes at him.

"My name is Percy Jackson, not boy."

"Oh really? I thought it was Peter Johnson," Artemis replied with a smirk.

Percy smiled, "well what do you know, you do have a sense of humor."

"I assure you Perseus I am very funny, like there was this one time where I shoot this son of Poseidon who had a very loud mouth and a stupid looking grin right between the eyes. Think that's funny?"

Percy shrugged, "well maybe not haha funny..."

"You have guts boy-"

"-Percy," Percy interrupted.

Artemis narrowed her eyes and repeated,"-boy. And as I was saying you have guts, and your ability is very unique something I have never seen a son of Poseidon achieve. But you have had you fun, you will return the souls you stole back to the Underworld and come with me to Olympus."

"And if I don't?"

"Well then I'm going to get some good target practise."

Percy started to sweat, this was a little above his pay grade. He could use the Master Bolt but something told him that she is a lot faster than Ares ever was. Just then Percy noticed something between the stone stands and the Amphitheater stage, the clay pot.

Quickly Percy thought up a plan, first step, distract Artemis. "Do you even know why you were sent to go after me?"

"You stole souls from Hades's domain. We don't know how but we know Hades must have assisted you in some way."

'Okay good she doesn't know how I transported the souls meaning to her the pot is just an ordinary clay pot.' "Do you know whose souls I have taken?" Percy then put his hands up as he slowly walked towards the goddess.

"It doesn't matter whose souls it was. The laws of Olympus are final, and you have broken one without the permission of the gods."

Percy raised an eyebrow as he slowly stepped off the last step of the stone steps onto the main theater floor, the pot was just a few feet away from him now, "really? It doesn't matter who? Not even if the 36 souls belong to their dead children?"

Artemis's eyes widened the moment Percy said that, "w-what?"

Percy nodded, "yup. I'm not just bringing back any normal back to life, I'm bringing back their kids, and they still want to stop me?"

"W-we weren't aware that any demigods died," Artemis said with confusion in her voice as she lowered her bow and arrow.

"You didn't? You didn't notice when the freaking Titan of the sun came and started impale campers like shish kebabs?"

"That can't be true," Artemis replied in a low voice, "how is this possible?"

"Look around," Percy gestured with his hands, "the proof is all around us."

Artemis turned and saw the camp destroyed. The Arena was surrounded by golden dust while the cabins were broken down into pieces. The Climbing Wall was covered with scorch marks that broke down pieces of it littering the grounds with stone.

Percy took a few steps to the clay pot while Artemis was distracted but before he could reach it she turned back to him, "Helios is back?! That's impossible!"

"Ah, no, Hyperion."

"Hyperion if the Titan of the Fire and Light! Get your Greek Mythology right!"

"Right, anyway what the hell were you guys doing when all of this was going on?"

"We...we were having a meeting."

"Oh? So you guys had a meeting while your children were being slaughtered by monsters, that's nice."

"The meeting was about Hyperion!" Artemis snapped back, "he had recently escaped Tartarus and we were trying to locate him before he did any damage."

"Looks like you all were a little too late," Percy replied back as he stepped right besides the pot.

"I don't need to be told that by you boy," Artemis called out as she aimed the arrow back at Percy, "be whatever your intentions may be you still are attempting to bring back the dead, which is illegal. Stop right now or I will be forced to kill you."

Percy sighed as he nodded, "okay, you caught me," he then took a step forward and brought down a foot over the clap pot shattering it into little pieces.

"What did you do?!" Artemis cried out as balls of light rushed passed her, out of the pot and to the Big House.

"Oops?" Percy said shrugging with a smile on his face, "I didn't see where I was going. Honest mistake."

Lie Failed!

Artemis then looked at Percy, "oh I am going to make you hurt for that one boy." She then threw her bow away and took out two hunting knives as she slowly walked up to him.

Percy grinned with the souls all safe he could now cut loss, "now this is more my style," he then took out Riptide and uncapped it forming his sword, "bring it girl scout."

Artemis roared as she charged him, "AHH!" Percy blocked her first swing and stepped aside to avoid her second. He jumped to the Amphitheater grounds and turned just in time to parry another of Artemis's blows.

"Your good boy," Artemis kicked Percy sending him rolling across the ground, "but not good enough."

Percy g.r.o.a.n.e.d picking himself up, "tell me about it." The demigod then raised his blade, "you may be faster stronger and smarter than me but at least I am better at one thing than you."

Artemis raised an eyebrow, "oh? And what is that?"

"I can do this, Earthquake Fist!" Percy then smashed his fist into the groud breaking the stone in half forcing Artemis to move away from the crumbling platform and the random flying stones.

Percy smiled and jumped back heading to the Lake, if he was going to fight off a god he would need all the bonuses he could get. But before he could take more than a few steps forward a blur of silver appeared in front of him causing Percy to stop.

Artemis was not happy. Her clothes were dirty, he face had a permanent frown and her hair a mess, "you are a slippery one. But you're the only one who can break the Earth," she then lifted a fist and and smashed it into the ground.

BOOM!

A web of cracks appeared below his fist breaking huge chunks of the Earth throwing Percy off his feet. The son of Poseidon struggled to get up but when he looked up Artemis was there with a knife held under his neck, "move and you're dead."

"How did you do that?" Percy asked.

"Godly strength."

"That's it? Just pure strength?"

Artemis nodded, "yes."

Percy looked at the goddess with amazement in his eyes."You're amazing."

Artemis looked shocked as his comment caused her lose focus for one second, and that was all Percy needed. He brought Riptide up and knocked the knife away from his neck and out of her hand. "Smoke from!" his body transformed into smoke as he flew away from her to the lake.

"Get back here!" Artemis roared as she snapped her fingers and Percy felt something overcoming his body and pushing past his mind and soul piercing his very being.

Ping!

Artemis's will has concurred yours resulting in a forced transformation!

Percy's eyes winded at that, 'what?!' Just then his body started to compress back into his normal body and then in flash of light everything changed.

Percy collapsed onto the ground and the moment his hands hit the ground he heard it, 'clack, clack.' Percy's eyes winded at the sound and looked down to see his arms were now covered with fur with his hands transformed into ….are these hooves?

Percy's then realised something else, everything was in black and white. He looked up, everything was now bigger, or maybe Percy was shorter. His head felt heavy as if it had something on it weighing him down and he found himself on all fours.

"Am I-am I a deer?!" he asked, about out of his mouth just came, "ARGH!"

Artemis grinned, "yes you are. Or more specifically you are a Red Deer, or properly called a stag. "

"You transformed me into a f.u.c.k.i.n.g deer?!" Percy asked as he deer eyes widened in shock.

"Yup."

"Why?!"

"You were irritating me, that's what I do to people who bug me."

Percy couldn't believe it. He looked at his black hooves and then at her shouting"YOU'RE F.U.C.K.I.N.G CRAZY!" Percy cried out and the moment he did he knew it was a mistake.

"Really? I am?" Artemis said as a dark shadow covered her eyes. Suddenly Percy felt a cold wind bowing across his spine;

Ping!

Warning! Bloodl.u.s.t from in front of you! Origin: Artemis! F.u.c.k.i.n.g run!

Percy looked at that then at Artemis. She lifted her face and Percy swore her calm silver eyes had red in them, "ah...I'm sorry?"

Artemis didn't respond, she then vanished in a blur as reappeared in front of Percy bringing her blade down on him.

Percy tried moving away but with his new body being on all fours and not on twos he tripped and fell down. Lukcy Artemis's knife got caught in Percy's harns saving the boy from further harm.

"Stay still so I can kill you!"

"Hell no!" Percy then got up pushed Artemis away with his horns as he ran away from the angry goddess.

'Okay okay I need to think right now, I can freak out later,' Percy then let Gamer's mind take over as he analyzed the situation. He looked at himself, he was a deer okay that's obvious, but he still had his gaming abilities, due to the detect Bloodl.u.s.t skill.

'Right now I need to focus on one thing, fighting back. If my guess is correct I still have most my powers so now I need to get my sword back.'

Percy then looked for Riptide only to find it near Artemis, 'of course it's over there I don't exactly have any pant for the sword to return to.' He then looked around and quickly spotted Artemis's fallen blade to the side, the one he blocked before.

He rushed to the blade and quickly grabbed the handle with his mouth and gripped it tightly as he spun around to face Artemis who was quickly catching up.

Once she saw him she raised an eyebrow, "really? You intend to fight me in that form using my own blade?"

Percy couldn't really speak with a blade in his mouth so he just nodded to which Artemis smirked, "well I will give you this you have the strongest will I have seen on a male in some time. Most would be to afraid of this new transformation to even move."

Percy growled as he readied himself to fight the goddess. She readied her blade and then two then jumped towards each other clashing their blades. Percy had to stretch his neck out really far but with his new form it was easy to do so.

The attack sent Percy back but the demigod didn't give up. He continued blocking Artemis's attack with the blade in his mouth as he slowly got pushed back towards the Big House.

Percy then channeled his water control and gathered the lake water sending blasts of water right at Artemis. The goddess of the hunt jumped all over the place avoiding his attacks and then quickly charged at the demigod swinging her knife so fast one could only see a sliver flash.

Percy got several cuts across his face but managed to block most of Artemis's strikes. He then drew back his face and then Artemis lunged forwards he smashed into her stomach pushing the goddess back.

The goddess quickly jumped back into the fight with a scowl on her face as she kicked Percy in his nose nose causing him to close his eyes in pain and just as Artemis was about to land a blow on his face an arrow knocked the knife out of her hand.

The goddess turned in fury at who shot the arrow and there standing shaking in his boots was Michael with his bow out, "ah...I come in peace?"

"A son of Apollo," Artemis narrowed her eyes, "just as annoying as your father."

Michael gulped, "I'm sorry my lady but I couldn't let you hurt him."

"And why is that."

"Because he save them," Michael replied as slowly out of the building every single camper came out. Leading them all was Annabeth and Clarisse, the former now healed with a giant arrow sized hole in her shirt.

"Micheal where is Percy?" Annabeth asked.

"Ah...there," Michael pointed to Percy's deer form which was slowly getting up, "she kind of turned him to a deer."

Everyone turned to Artemis and glared at the goddess. Clarisse spoke up in a low growl, "did you do that?"

Artemis looked at them all, their combined bloodl.u.s.t wasn't enough to scare her, but she was impressed nonetheless. "And if I did?"

At her words all the demigods in camp moved out of the Big House and towards Percy guarding him with drawn swords and raised shields. Peter then spoke up, "then we are going to kick your a.s.s."

Artemis smiled, "really? I am a god, an Olympian. You do realise if you fight with me you will die."

Annabeth shrugged as she held up her dagger, "been there done that."

Percy looked up at all his friend, no, his family and his heart was filled with happiness. They were willing to die for him. Percy got on his feet, or limbs in this case and walked in front of the group with Artemis's blade still between his teeth.

Artemis looked at this and then started Percy and the rest down. The demigods readied themselves and waited for the goddess to attack, only it never came. Artemis sighed, "you all are stubborn as you parents."

Percy smirked, "yeah we know." Is what he said but it came out as unrecognizable gibberish for the others but Artemis understood.

"I suggest you come with me Perseus," Artemis said as she slowly moved her knife causing the demigods to ready themselves for an attack, "relax I'm not going to hurt him," she comforted them as she slowly sheathed her knife, "there is no point now that the dead are back."

"So what are you going to do now?" Nina asked as she slowly lowered her blade.

"Well that all depends on Perseus," Artemis said as all eyes turned to the boy-deer, as all eyes turned to the deer. "Zeus wanted me to stop you from bringing back the dead, I failed. But since you're all alive right now he could order me to kill the dead to insure balance is maintained, something which I do not want to do. If you come with me right now Perseus I can assure you that no harm will come to your friends, if not….well I can't say for sure."

"That's bullshit!" Clarisse cried out.

"Yeah!" Conner shouted, "Our parents won't just do that! It's hard to imagine Athena signing off on Annabeth's death!"

"Those are the rules, and not just any rules, the Ancient rules," Artemis replied, "I swear this is the truth."

Percy looked at Artemis with narrowed eyes, "swear it on the Styx."

"I swear on the Styx that if you come with me right now none of the revived demigods will be hurt in anyway, at least not by me" Artemis swore and just then the sky rumbled with lightning signaling the promise being made.

Percy nodded as he slowly walked away from the group to Artemis. He gave her back her blade, which was now covered in drool, and then turned to his friends, "I'll be back soon you guys, I promise."

"What?" Annabeth asked with an confused look.

"Oh right almost forgot," Artemis then snapped her fingers turning PErcy back into his human form.

Ping!

You have transformed back into a human!

"I said I'll be back soon," Percy repeated to them but then he noticed that none of them were looking at his face and most of them were all red, "what? Something on my face? I don't still have antlers do I?"

"Ah Percy," Nina said as she looked away blushing, "you're kind of n.a.k.e.d."

Percy looked down and saw that he was not wearing a single fibre of clothing on his body, "What the f.u.c.k!" His hands moved to cover his privates as she turned to Artemis who was also looking away, "give me back my clothes!"

"S-sorry. I'm not used to turning males back into humans," Artemis then snapped her fingers and Percy felt the comforting weight of his clothed return covering his entire body.

Percy patted himself and then sighed in relief, "thank the gods," he then looked up at the campers, "not one word," to which they nodded quickly.

"Now that that's done it's time to go to Olympus, Zeus is waiting," Artemis said as she put a hand on Percy's shoulder.

"Wait Percy you can't be serious right?" Nina called out, "you're seriously going with her?"

Percy nodded, "yeah. There really isn't any other way Nina.

"But-" Nina began to repli only for Annabeth to put a hand up silencing her. Everyone looked at the daughter of Athena who simply asked "you will come back right?"

Percy nodded, "yeah. I will."

Annabeth nodded, "good. And you better or else I swear me and the rest of camp are coming after you, even if the gods try and stop us."

"Hell yeah!" Conner shouted joined by cheers from the rest of camp.

Percy smirked, "alright then," he smiled at the campers, "I'll see you guys at breakfast, save me a plate will ya."

The campers nodded and Artemis snapped her fingers transporting Percy away in a flash of light.

"What now?" Clarisse asked.

"Now? Now we wait," Annabeth replied as all the campers looked to the night sky.

"Ah guys is it just me or is anyone else here still freaked about the whole Percy flashing us thing?" Travis asked and everyone else nodded their heads as a response, "good so it's not just me."

Percy felt himself being flung across the sky, similar to the pearl's way of traveling expect as a human not as smoke. He blinked and suddenly found himself in front of two giant golden doors standing on a marble floor.

Percy then turned and saw that he was standing on top of a mountain and below him were buildings carved into the mountain. The building were greek and all over the place where statues of gods and heroes. Percy's ADHD acted up as he tried to look at everything at once causing him to get a slight headache.

"Come Perseus, the gods await," Artemis called out distracting Percy from the sights.

"Well at least you stopped calling me boy, I suppose that's an improvement."

Artemis nodded, "yes I have. The way the demigods stood up for you...impressed me. And anyone who can go toe to toe against a goddess while in the form of a deer is deserving of a little recognition."

Percy smiled, "well thanks, I guess. Although I am still pissed you flashed me in front of the entire camp, I am never going to hear the end of this one."

Artemis smiled, "well think of it this way, at least now you have nothing to fear about showing your body to other people."

"Yes thank you for traumatizing me so badly that I might become a nudist someday. Really needed that along with the hundreds of psychological issues I already have."

Artemis laughed but didn't respond instead she pushed the doors open and motioned Percy in. The inside was just as grand as the outside with gold lining everything from the pillars to the ceiling. The room was huge one could fit three buildings the size of the Big House in here and have room to spare. And inside the room were twelve giant thrones each occupied by eleven giant people.

They were big, bigger than Hyperion was. Each had an aura about them and Percy didn't need his powers to know who each one was. In the throne directly in front of him sat Zeus with Her at his right and….Poseidon to his left.

Percy looked at the man, his father and a feeling of anger and loathing filled his heart. Artemis walked in front of Percy and addressed Zeus, "I have brought him father."

The king of the Gods wore a very good looking suite which only enforced his role as a leader. The man had a huge grey bread and electric blue eyes, He nodded, "good daughter. Although I must say you took much longer than I thought you would."

Artemis nodded and replied in a neutral tone, "he was a difficult person to bring down."

"Yeah I know," came a grumbling voice from the throne on Percy's left and there sitting on a giant pink donut pillow was a very pissed off Ares.

"Heya Ares!" Percy said waving, "still sore?"

The god of war exploded in anger, "shut up you useless brat!"

"What did you do to him?" Artemis asked in a whisper tone.

"I may have shot him in the d.i.c.k with the Master Bolt," Percy replied back with a smirk.

Artemis looked at Percy in shock before grinding, "very good. I have been wanting to do that for some time now."

"Hey! Are you ignoring me?!" Ares shouted out, " you are aren't you! I swear to Zeu going to rip you into little-"

"-You'll do nothing to my son!" cried out Poseidon as he got up from his throne and walked to Percy, "whatever fights you had with him, end it now Ares, or else you will face my wrath."

Percy looked at his...dad, as the god slowly shrunk down to human size and approach Percy. He looked a lot like Percy, well maybe Percy looked a lot like him. Thier hair and eyes were the same the only difference was their choice in clothing. Poseidon wore a blue hawaiian shirt with white flowers on it and a pair of shorts with a smile showing his laid back attitude while Percy was frowning and very serious.

"It's been so long since I have seen you face to face Percy," Poseidon said as he approached the boy.

"So you're my dad huh," Percy said in a calm tone.

The man smiled, "yeah I am." Percy stepped forward and Poseidon welcomed Percy into a hug, but before they even touched Percy drew back a fist and launched it right at Poseidon's face.

"EARTHQUAKE FIST!" Percy roared out sending Poseidon flying across the throne room and rolling along the floor. PErcy then watched as Poseidon got back up holding his bleeding nose.

"Okay yeah, I deserve that," Poseidon replied and he pulled himself up with his trident, "damn you can punch."

"Yeah kind of had to learn how to do that myself, you know since I didn't have a dad to teach me."

"Hey my dad ate me, you don't hear me complaining."

"You chopped him up into little pieces and then threw him into Taurus along with his brothers. I think you got your issues sorted out there," Percy replied with a smile which Poseidon mimicked.

"Enough of this," Zeus cut in, "you are here because of crimes against Olympus son of Poseidon."

Percy raised an eyebrow, "really? What are the charges?"

"You are charged with stealing the Lightning bolt, the Helmet of Darkness and the brining 36 souls from the Underworld back to life."

Percy nodded, "well first off I didn't steal the Lightning bolt of the Helmet, Ares and Luke did that."

"Hey!" Ares shouted out, "I didn't steal it!"

"Yeah but you allowed Luke to steal it."

"Yeah but…."

"And another thing how come Ares isn't being punished as well?" Percy asked crossing his arms, "he helped Luke start a war against Olympus."

"Ares will be dealt with," Zeus replied shooting a glare at Ares, "in the meantime we still have your crimes to address."

"Well honestly speaking the only thing I am guilty of is the bringing back the dead thing."

"So you do not deny it? You took 36 souls from Hades and brought them back to life?"

Percy nodded, "yeah. But tell me something do you even know who the 36 souls are?"

The Olympians looked at each other before Zeus replied, "no. We were just told the number nothing else about them."

Percy turned to Artemis, "care to explain who they are?"

The goddess of the moon sighed and stepped forward, "when I tracked him down he nearly reached camp. As I engaged him in battle he proved to have….unique abilities and managed to free the souls...who were all demigods."

All the gods looked shocked, while Zeus spoke up "what?! Is there proof of this?!"

"Yes father I have seen the destroyed camp myself. There was scorch marks every where which also served as proof for who attacked the camp, Hyperion. It seems these souls were all killed by the titan. Perseus here revived the ones that died in that battle."

The gods all turned to Percy who then spoke up, "I went there not for selfish reasons, well no, that's not true, I went because of selfish reasons. I went there to save my friends, you children and I did. So if you are going to punish me for that, fine."

The gods all looked at Zeus who looked pissed, "how did Hyperion even know where camp was?!"

"Luke told him," Percy replied back with cold eyes.

"What?!" a god called out. He wore a red tracksuit with winged sneakers immediately Percy realised who this was, Hermes.

"Yeah it true. Luke Castellan, son of Hermes declared war on Olympus and tonight was just his first attack."

"I find it hard to believe a demigod could command do all that you said," Hera spoke up.

"It's true, a demigod can't, but Luke isn't in this alone. He is working for somebody. Somebody powerful."

"Hyperion doesn't really seem like the commanding type," Hera countered.

"It's because he isn't, someone else is calling the shots. Someone stronger than both of them."

Zeus turned to Dionysus, "go to camp right now and find out what happened. And when you return you and I are going to have a talk about you ignoring your duties!"

The wine god looked scared as he immediately vanished in a flash of purple leaving behind the scent of gr.a.p.es to fill the air. Zeus then turned to Percy, "if you are telling the truth son of Poseidon-"

"-Please, call me Percy."

Zeus narrowed his eyes at Percy and electricity passed through them but Percy didn't lose face. "Percy," Zeus finally repeated, "if what you said is true than you have done a great service for Olympus this night. But the laws cannot be broken, the dead should stay dead and as such I must punish someone. I wish I could send the souls back to the Underworld as punishment but something tell me that that would not be a good choice," the rest of the Olympians were all eyeballing Zeus at the present moment. "So the only option I see before myself is this, punishing you."

"Brother!" Poseidon shouted out drawing everyone's attention, "you will do no such thing! He saved 36 demigods today! He should be rewarded not punished!"

"That may be but the laws are clear!" Zeus shouted back, "there has to be balance!"

"I swear to the Fates Zeus if you harm my son-"

"-What? What will you do brother?"

"Ah guys?" Percy asked but was ignored by the two gods.

"I will hunt down every single mistress you have and I will drown them in their own bath tubs!"

"You wouldn't dare! If you do that I will rain lightning down on your ocean continually shocking every fish in that blasted thing."

"Guys I think I might-," Percy tried to talk was again snubbed.

"You do that and I will create a Earthquake so big it will destroy mount Everest you favorite vacation spot!"

"You wouldn't!"

"Try me brother!"

"GUYS!" Percy shouted causing the two to stop and look at Percy, "I have a solution for that problem."

"Really?" Zeus asked as he settled back into his throne shooting Poseidon a dirty look.

"You guys can't just forgive me, I get it okay. But I know that you can if I offer something good in return right? Like a divine bribe?"

Zeus scratched his beard, "well….not in those exact words but yes, if you mean to say an offering to us that is allowed."

Percy nodded, "then how about this I give to you the Lightning bolt and Ares's spear," the god of war perked up hearing that, "in exchange for you guys looking the other way."

"Wait you took Ares's symbol of power?" Hephaestus asked, who kind of looked like a deformed muscle man. This questions caught everyone's attention as all eyes were on Percy.

"Yeah I did. What was I supposed to do? He threw the damn thing at me!"

"You know what kid I think I like you," the forge god replied as he smirked at a furious Ares. The gods looked at each other and then slowly began to think about the suggestion offered to them.

"That is a brilliant idea, surprising since you are a son of coral head over here," Athena, who looked like a brunette version of Annabeth, said pointing at Poseidon.

"Hey!" Percy's dad called back, "I am smart!"

"Whatever," Athena said rolling her eyes as she looked at Percy with interest, "either way young Perseus you plan does have merit. Very promising, what do you think father?"

Zeus still looked like the was thinking before he spoke up, "very well that seems like a fair deal."

Percy then smiled as he went to his bag and opened his inventory. He pretended to look from the weapons before he took out the Master bolt and Ares's spear and tossed them to their respective gods. Ares immediately grabbed his spear and started to hold the thing like a newborn baby.

"Excellent," Zeus replied as he held the Master Bolt in hand, "it feels good to have my weapon back in hand. But how did you fit Ares entier spear in that bag?"

Percy looked nervous, "ah..."

Poseidon then stepped up, "it was a gift from me. A bag which can hold a lot more items and is bigger on the inside." Percy looked at Poseidon who gave him a wink.

Percy smiled and turned to Zeus, " so is it over?"

Zeus looked at Percy, "it is over."

Percy Jackson is a demigod, the son of Sally Jackson and Poseidon. He has ADHD and Dyslexia making it difficult for him to sit still in class. His behaviour has gotten him trouble over the years in various schools. Percy is aware of who is father is, and wishes to find meaning in his life. Percy loves his mother, and hates Gabe, who is a d.i.c.k.

Status- demigod, giving Percy - +5 VIT, +5 DEX and the ability to breath underwater, enhanced strength, communicate with fish, create earthquakes, talk to horses, control water and look cool.

Percy smiled at all the stat points he got and then quickly closed the box and looked at the gods, "so ah…. can I leave?"

Zeus nodded, "it is, may I leave, not can I leave, and yes, you may."

Percy rolled his eyes, "sesh you are worse than my english teacher."

"But before you leave I must ask this," Athena spoke up drawing Percy's attention. "Did Hyperion say who is behind all of this? Did he give any indication of who is targeting Olympus?"

Percy looked at Athena with a surprised look, "really? I mean isn't it kind of obvious? There is only one person who Hyperion would obey, Kronos."

The air turned cold the moment the Titan was mentioned. Zeus narrowed his eyes at Percy, "are you sure or are you guessing?"

Percy shrugged, "I'm guessing. But I doubt that I am wrong. Who else could free Hyperion? Who else could seduce Luke to betray us? The Titan is back, or will be back."

The gods looked to each other before Zeus spoke up, "Artemis send Percy back to camp and come back here fast, we have much to discuss."

The goddess nodded and snapped her fingers transporting them both back to the hill leading to camp.

Percy looked around and saw the sky was breaking into the dawn, orange light filled the sky as the sun slowly rose. Percy turned to Artemis, "thanks for this."

The goddess nodded, "you are very much welcome Perseus."

"It's Percy, come on say it with me. P-E-R-C-Y. Percy."

Artemis smiled and chuckled, "sure, Perseus," Percy frowned at that, "now I suggest you go back to your friends, before they charge Olympus in search of you."

Percy laughed, "haha, yeah knowing those guys they just might!" Percy smiled at Artemis, and extended a closed fist. The goddess looked at this confused but then quickly caught on. She then gave Percy a fist bump as the two smiled at each other.

"See you around Perseus," Artemis said as she walked away.

"For the last time it's PERCY!" Percy shouted back at her as the goddess flashed away in a bright light. Percy then turned around and walked up the hill towards camp. This had been the longest night of his life. He had fought Luke, went to the Underworld, twice, kicked Ares's a.s.s and somehow didn't die when Artemis came around. He even got turned into a freaking deer.

But all his worries and problems simply melted away the moment Percy arrived at camp. Sure It was burst down in some places and was destroyed but it was still the next best thing to home he had.

Percy quickly walked across the deserted camp and to the Mess Hall where he found everyone waiting for him. They were all in their own seats, quite, patient and not a plate of food was seen, except for one in the Poseidon table.

As PErcy approached the Mess Hall the campers caught sight of him and slowly all of them got up from their seats.

"Percy!" Nina cried out as she charged at Percy wrapping him up in the biggest hug she could broke the silence among the campers as everyone charged ahead and rushed Percy swallowing him up whole. Then they threw him up as they began chanting his name, "PERCY! PERCY! PERCY!"

The demigod in question smiled at this and soon they took him into the Mess Hall and put him in Poseidon's bench in front of the plate of food. Percy grabbed the plate and ate the bread, "well what's everyone waiting for? Let's eat!"

The campers yelled in agreement as everyone started to stuff their faces full of food and drinks as a camp wide party started that lasted for the rest of the day. The day went by in a blur as everyone wanted to talk to Percy making the boy very busy.

Nina thanked him again for saving her life while Annabeth hit him in the head for doing so stupid as to bring her back from the dead, and then thanked him for saving her life. Michael and wanted to borrow the staff of healing for a longer time, which Percy agreed to and Clarisse and Peter were itching was a spar, which Percy politely declined for a later date.

By the end of the day Percy found himself standing on the shore of the beach looking at the sea. His head was spinning, he had so many questions and honestly no clue where to start. But just then somebody sat down beside him.

Percy turned to his dad there with his trident in the form of a fishing rod. "Hello Percy," Poseidon said smiling, "mind if join you?"

"Not at all pops," Percy said as the two green eyed father and son duo turned to admire the sea.

After what felt like an eternity of awkward silence Poseidon spoke up, "I saw your mother today, meet her at Montauk."

Percy nodded, "is she safe now?"

Poseidon nodded, "yes, she is safe now. You caused quite a stir on Olympus Percy. You have now become the poster child for the demigods in this war, you have become their leader."

Percy nodded, "yeah...I know. It's one of things that has been bothering me, a lot."

"An what are the things you have been thinking about? If you want maybe I can give you some fatherly advice?"

Percy chuckled, "a little too late for that isn't it?"

Poseidon sighed and lowered his head, "look Percy I know I haven't….I have never been there for you, but I still care for you, you're my son. I still look out for you you know? Just because you don't see me doesn't mean I'm not there."

Percy looked at Poseidon with a questioning look, "really? Like when?"

"All the time. I can feel your aura Percy. It's like a lighthouse for me, something which connects all of my children, a power unique to only children of the sea."

Percy then looked at Poseidon shocked, "so-so that's how you knew that my powers were-"

"-Changed by the Fates? Yes that is how I know," Poseidon replied, "I don't know what the Fates did to you and I don't want to know, that's for you to tell me. But I know one thing Percy, it's powerful and very addicting."

"And what makes you think that?"

"Because day by day you become less and less the son of Poseidon and more and more the tool of Fate, I can feel it happen."

Percy grumbled, "yeah well at least they gave me the power to protect myself, unlike you who did jack shit."

"They point still remains Percy they are trying to control you, to make you into a tool of Fates, and if you let them-"

"-You don't think I know that?! I have had their gift for a long time dad and I have spent plenty of time thinking about why they would do such a thing. I know they are using me, but I don't care. They gave me a chance to survive, which is more than you ever did."

"Percy I couldn't intervene! I am a God! I can't just leave my duties!"

"Then why have me at all?!" Percy shouted as he stood up in anger, "why curse mom with this life? Huh?! Is she had never meet you and never had me she would be living a happy life right now! She would have never lived with Gabe who hurt her or look over her shoulders for monsters every time she took me out somewhere! We ruined her life! She was sent to the Underworld because of me!"

Poseidon just started at his son as slowly tears rolled down his face. The sea god slowly got up and brought Percy into a hug. His son had done many amazing things in life, but in the end he was still a child, "I'm sorry Percy. I am so sorry."

"You should have been there. You should have protected her," Percy said in a muffled tone.

"I'm a-"

"-A god, yeah I know. But….I'm your son," Percy said as he pulled out of the hug and let Gamer's mind run it's course blocking out his emotions as clarity came back to him. He sighed, "I'm sorry I'm being so emotional. It's just... been a long day for me."

Poseidon nodded, "it's okay. Everyone is allowed to be a little emotional now and again. And if you can't talk to your parents about your problems, who can you?"

Percy smiled at that, "thanks….dad."

Poseidon smiled back, "so any plans for the future?"

Percy nodded, "I'm going after Luke, tomorrow. He is amassing an army and I have an idea where he will go first to get some men."

Percy pressed yes and turned to Poseidon who asked "Need any help?"

"I thought gods couldn't just help demigods?"

"They can't, but something tells me the Fates won't mind me helping you out," Poseidon replied with a smirk which Percy copied.

"Well first of I think I do with a teacher to help me out with my water powers. I'm good, but I can get better."

Poseidon nodded, "I'll get you a tutor, someone to teach you later in the summer."

"And a place for mom to stay, our last house sucks I want her to get a new house and enough money to live a comfortable life."

Poseidon looked at Percy before signing and nodded, "okay. It'll be difficult but okay."

Percy nodded, "good." Percy then started to think about what he could get that could be useful for his next quest. 'Maybe I should bring someone along with him, like Luke and Grover, except well maybe not Luke, but more useful that Grover was in a fight…..wait, am I forgetting someone?'

Percy's eyes shot up, "GROVER!"
