#god sally and poseidon are my roman empire

[aryxchse]

the same type of blue. | percy jackson x daughter of hera! reader.

a / n : the history book on the shelf, is always repeating itself. and i won't shut up about how logan lerman and his wife being sally and poseidon in my head

warnings : emotional, i can't warm up to paul im sorry, sally and poseidon should've been an endgame but idek how, mentioning past, you looking like sally, crying, some of the hera cabin power mentions that i had in mind

the moment sally jackson met you, was the moment she saw her teenage self in your eyes.

you were this funny and bubbly girl who was too nice for your own good. you had these mother instict in you that later she found out it was because of your mother being hera. you would always say what type of marriage you imagine with percy and how many kids do you want. one boy and one girl, doesn't matter who's the older. the girl was going to have percy's eyes, but the boy will have yours.

and it always put a smile on her face to listen you talk about your dreams so comfortly to her. because she saw herself in those dreams. they were once her dreams too.

percy looked and acted too much like poseidon for sally's own good. he would unknowingly make his dad's jokes, and would call you 'darling' like he did to her back then. all these little details would remind sally her past love.

it was a barbeque day for the jackson-blofis family at the montauk cabin. where you were obviously invited, and poseidon, obviously was not. he liked to show up in family gatherings once in a while, to spend some time with his son or suprisingly, estelle.

you and sally prepared the table as the boys made the meat while laughing at something. paul and poseidon had this awkward friendship that always made you giggle. and percy would chat with his biological dad more often, since he felt more comfortable with him. don't get me wrong, he loved paul. all of you loved paul. but poseidon's warm energy made him easier to talk.

you never thought you'd have a dinner with a god but here you were, eating a meal with one of the most powerful gods ever existed. poseidon was really good at making people forget that he's a god, the one that rules the seven seas.

after the dinner, percy and you started to clean the area as paul went inside to watch this new game he followed, you didn't really paid attention. sally stayed outside, smelling the sea's calming scent, her bare feet dipping in the sand.

she looked over were poseidon and estelle was playing. he made sand castles with her as he laughed like a true grandpa. it made sally chuckle too, seeing him acting all fatherly with her daughter.

"he wants to make up for it," you said, and it made sally slightly jump. you apologised while putting a hand on her shoulder. "you know, since he couldn't look out for percy and you."

sally's eyes started to water up, but she managed to crack a smile. "how do you know this?" she asked. you shrugged, "i can feel a parent's feelings, even if they're a god. weird power, i know." you chuckled at the end with her.

"he didn't had any choice," sally muttered, looking at the sea again. you nodded. "i know, but he still feels bad. he really loves you sally, still like the first time." your whispering words made sally want to breakdown right then and there, but she only sighed.

"baby!" percy called behind you, smiling like a little kid. you both turned around as you made your way to percy, giggling. once again, it reminded sally the good times. but she wasn't alone this time, poseidon could also see the similarities between them. how you had sally's hair back then like how she used it, and how percy was a literal copy of himself.

sally sat next to poseidon as he sat there silently, watching his son and his girlfriend chase eachother around the beach, just like he and sally did. estelle was asleep in his arms, the calm energy he radiated making the girl fall asleep immediatly.

"they're just like us." poseidon whispered, not looking at the woman he still loved. sally smiled, not that he would see. "yeah. but a better version." she responded.

"one that ends happily unlike us." he agreed, too afraid to look in her eyes. sally didn't said anything, and the past lovers watched their son having the time of his life with the girl he loved.

suddenly percy lifted you up on his shoulders and ran into the water with you, still being clothed. you whined the moment you swimmed up. "percy it's not fair!" you yelled at him between your giggles.

"m' wet too baby, see? there's nothing unfair in this!" percy laughed with her, hugging her waist tightly so that she won't slip away.

"you used to do that too," sally whispered to poseidon, smile hurting her cheeks at this point. poseidon mimicked her facial expressions as he nodded quickly.

"and you would always whine like her." he chuckled, making the woman laugh along with him.

percy stepped out from the water with the help of the waves, still holding you in his arms in bridal style. while he made his way into the cabin, he spinned you around once in a while to make you laugh.

"he's really your son." sally chuckled, watching the couple enter the cabin.

"he's our son." poseidon corrected. he finally faced the woman, and saw the tears perking in her eyes through a smile. this was sally jackson, the woman he loved the most. smiling through everything.

he made the tears go away with a flick of his hand, too afraid to touch her. "a proof that our love was real, not a dream i had."

The Roman Empire wasn’t built in a day and therefore my Roman Empire shan’t be built on one scene.

Percy praying to his mom instead of the gods? That’s in there.

The stairwell switch in the St. Louis arch? That too.

The first Percabeth hug? The very streets on which Romans walk.

Waterland and the gold throne? That’s whole temple column, that is.

Grover gaslighting the god of war with ease? Immaculate, yes, welcome to the city.

Sally and Poseidon in the diner? You cannot have an empire without it.

Percy meeting his dad for the first time? Long live Rome, my friend.

I can’t pick just one scene, this whole show is my Roman Empire.

okay so, i realize that's probably not your current fandom, but i'm (once again) in a pjo content binge and i when i checked your pjo tags (Trading Tomorrow fan here) the first post was "no mist au". Which sounds really, really awesome. would you be willing to share some ideas about it or something?

I am always willing to talk about my AUs!!! And I'm glad you like Trading Tomorrow! That fic is still very dear to me!

Right, as the name says, the "no mist AU" is essentially an AU where the mist ceases existing when Percy is still like toddler age and the world is thrown into chaos. We end in some sorta post apocalyptic state where we see the return of the old worship mixed with new ways because demigods are still pretty much the only ones who can kill monsters. But now, well, normal people are praying to the gods as well again.

Some plot points include

Sally taking Percy and running and establishing herself as a person who knows what's up, and more than that, has a kid. She ends running a city alongside the coast as Poseidon's priestess.

The Roman Empire makes a return. Ne Rome adapts quickly to these new circumstances and they do it really well, expanding territory. Thalia and Jason both grow up in New Rome!

On that note, there is kind of a constant power struggle going on between various territories and gods and Kronos is also Awake And Having Some Thoughts

Camp Halfblood is the other big player. I'm not sure which name it'll get but it'll definitely will be renamed. I like New Alexandria (as opposed to New Athen as I've seen in a couple fics) because of Alexander the Great kicking off the Hellenism (just bear with this phrasing I know that's not how history works) and PJO seeming to rely more on late stages of ancient greek history.

But here are plenty of other bigger settlements with their own leader, goals and protections. Though being a demigod guarantees having kind of a higher status in society and people that are/would have been born clear-sighted have a sort of sense for when monsters are near, opposed to normal people.

But yeah, mostly this is post apocalypse meets ancient greek civilization?

And Sally doing everything she can to keep her kid safe and being very badass in turn.

Uuuh take a snippet?

Sally had devoured entire volumes about Greek mythology and the gods’ worship during her pregnancy. She’d never breathed a word of it to Percy, choosing ignorance as protection, but in their changed world, her knowledge needn’t be summoned. It was already there.

“Does anyone have sweets on them or alcohol?” Sally asked.

The people in her group only stared at her in confusion, some even in mistrust.

“It’s important.”

���What are you doing?”

“Prayer,” Sally said. She hadn’t ever been religious, meeting Poseidon hadn’t changed that. But could this really still be religion if she knew it to be truth?

Sally tossed the chocolate bar and the vodka from the flask into the fire.

“To our Lord Poseidon, for protection and safety of this commune.”

Actually take two snippets:

Leo does not like to admit that they might be in trouble, but he’s so nervous he can’t think of a weapon to aid him, never mind focus on making any fire. He glances to the right where Bryce’s body was already cooling, and nearly threw up. The scorpion’s sting had ripped right through his stomach, leaving behind an ugly, revolting wound. Luke is still holding onto his sword, but he can’t even stand properly, never mind fight.

The realization that they are utterly fucked hits like a brick to the face.

He’s survived the end of the world, myth becoming reality and this is what kills him: a regular patrol in an area that should be free of monsters. Leo hadn’t even been scheduled to go on this patrol, only volunteered at the last minute. He’d hoped to impress Luke, maybe see if he could secure permission to move outside the safe perimeters to get more parts to work with.

How stupid, not even their base is truly safe.

With an ugly roar, the scorpion turns around, aiming straight for Leo. Behind it, Luke struggles to get on his feet.

That’s it, Leo’s done for.

He tries to smile so Luke won’t blame himself and maybe do the smart thing and get away. Optimistic last thoughts so that Leo can rest peacefully in the underworld, having died a hero’s death. Phrased like this, dying doesn’t even sound that horrible.

The thought does not make the scorpion look any less terrifying and just when Leo decided to scream, he is cut off.

“Hold this for me.”

Instinctually, Leo holds out his arms and a bag gets dropped into them. The bag is warm and soft and has bright green eyes and oh, gods, that’s a baby.

Leo looks up and there’s a blur of black and blue standing in front of him. His brain is a bit slow on the upkeep, still reeling with the realization that he is holding a baby, and in the seconds it takes him to realize a stranger had come to their aid, the man has already drawn his blade. It’s made from pure celestial bronze, which is enough to make Leo’s jaw go slack. He’s only seen pure celestial bronze or imperial gold only a handful of times. The metals are incredibly scarce and Leo wants to touch that sword right now.

But he can’t.

Because he’s holding a baby and the sword is in its wielder’s hand, who is using it to systematically decimate the scorpion without ever breaking a sweat.

The monster surges up on more time, and the man simply adjust his hold on the sword and drops low, piercing the beast from below.

And just like that, it’s over and the clearing is silent.

Octavian: the name

I didn't need the reminder. I'd been so proud of my son, the original Octavian, later Caesar Augustus.

So names have meaning, right? Perseus was the hero that got the happy ending, which is why Sally Jackson chose it, even though Perseus was a son of Zeus not Poseidon. The original Jason was the captain of the Argo. And our Jason sailed on the Argo "Two" (too).

Then there's Octavian.

“Possibly my namesake, Octavian – Augustus Caesar. Everyone says I bear a remarkable resemblance.”

This is the first mention of Octavian's name and how it's related to the first Emperor. Now, OG Octavian was a ruthless politician, not a hero. Which is interesting, because usually if someone has a namesake in these stories it would be an actual mythological hero (Percy and Jason being examples). Not like, an actual person.

Besides, the first day of August is most auspicious - the month named after my ancestor Augustus. And you know how he united the Romans? [...] He saved Rome by becomes First Citizen. He wanted peace and prosperity, not power! Believe me, Mike, I intend to follow his example. I will save New Rome."

Unlike a lot of the other heroes with namesakes, Octavian seems to have invested himself into being just like Augustus. To follow his example.

How so? Well, reading through the lines a bit, we can guess that New Rome is mostly based off the Roman Republic's culture. It's hesitance to embrace the Greeks - for one thing. But also the fact each cohort has its standard. The fact Apollo isn't really worshipped as an important god (and his children generally dismissed as cowardly).

Going back to the original quote (at the top), we see Apollo talking about how proud he was of the original Octavian (Augustus). Despite Augustus' earlier portrayal as a powerhungry tyrant.

Which means me think Octavian's need to follow Augustus' example stems, in part, from Apollo's pride of his son. Feeding into Apollo's nostalgia.

This was a smaller, kinder, much improved Rome - the Rome we always thought mortals were capable of but never achieved. And, yes, of course we gods came here for nostalgia, to relive those wonderful centuries when mortals worshipped us freely across the empire, perfuming the air with burnt sacrifices.

Because even though Apollo says this - he's like the only god who seems to agree. At least, according to pretty much every Roman demigod who isn't Octavian.

And note, Apollo talks about the empire. Because of course he does. Under the Republic, Apollo wasn't that important. He pretty much had no Roman equivalent and that made it very hard to integrate him. The person who pressed for that integration? It was Augustus.

(The Romans had been becoming more and more interested in Greek concept for a long time. It's not like Apollo was just ignored until then. He had a Temple near Rome. But importantly none in Rome.)

But while we see a bit of Octavian trying to replicate this idealised Augustus. Of following the footsteps of his namesake. Almost like... like he really wanted Apollo to acknowledge him.

I find it really interesting as well, that we don't have Octavian's last name (I know I'm bringing it up again but it's important). A lot of Riordan's main cast have last names. And especially for Octavian, his should be just as important as his first name. He derives so much of his political power from his family yet he also talks about them vaguely.

The name he clings to is Apollo's.

Rachel Dare faced the augur, "Octavian, son of Apollo, you should take this more seriously. Even Romans respected your father's Oracle of Delphi."

"Ha!" Octavian said. "You're the Oracle of Delphi? Right. And I'm the Emperor Nero."

Octavian doesn't correct Rachel when she falsely calls him a son of Apollo. She calls Apollo his father. Even though that's blatantly wrong. Maybe that's because he'd refer that reality over the current one.

(I think Riordan has admitted this was a mistake but it's in the text so I'm going to use it!)

Regardless, like all the namesakes, Octavian's comes with a twist. Percy = actually a son of Poseidon. Jason = actually not the captain. Octavian? = actually dies young.

Brutal.

Anyway, I just wanted to talk about it. Because there's a real potential for the two of them to be compared in the eyes of Apollo. And, of course, the second Octavian really doesn't measure up.

Their former augur, my descendant Octavian, had died in the battle against Gaia. (Which I had a hard time feeling sad about, but that's another story.)

#some octavian angst delivered to you this fine day #stealing inspo from a long dead guy to win over the heart of a god #truly inspired #still weird that Octavian is named after a real person #not a hero #octavian hoo #octavian pjo #octavian analysis #which probably doesn't make sense #because i haven't read through it

Title: The Lightning Thief

Author: Rick Riordan

Publication year: July 1, 2005

Publisher: Miramax books Inc.

Genre: Greek mythology & Fantasy

Introduction

Richard Russell Riordan Jr. (/ˈraɪərdən/; born June 5, 1964),[1] is an American author. He is known for writing the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series, about a twelve-year-old boy who discovers he is a son of Poseidon. His books have been translated into 42 languages and sold more than 30 million copies in the US.[2] 20th Century Fox has adapted the first two books of his Percy Jackson series as part of a series of films. His books have spawned related media, such as graphic novels and short story collections.

Riordan's first full-length novel was Big Red Tequila, which became the first book in the Tres Navarre series. His big breakthrough was The Lightning Thief (2005), the first novel in the five-volume Percy Jackson series, which placed a group of adolescents in a Greco-Roman mythological setting. Since then, Riordan has written The Kane Chronicles trilogy and The Heroes of Olympus series. The Kane Chronicles (2010-2012) focused on Egyptian mythology; The Heroes of Olympus was the sequel to the Percy Jackson series. Riordan also helped Scholastic Press develop The 39 Clues series and its spinoffs, and penned its first book, The Maze of Bones (2008).[3] His most recent publications are three books in the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series, based on Norse mythology.[4][5] The first book of his The Trials of Apollo series based on Greek mythology, The Hidden Oracle, was released in May 2016.

The Lightning Thief is a 2005 fantasy-adventure novel based on Greek mythology, the first young adult novel written by American author Rick Riordan. It is the first novel in the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series, which charts the adventures of modern-day twelve-year-old Percy Jackson as he discovers he is a demigod, the son of a mortal woman and the Greek god Poseidon. Percy and his friends Annabeth Chase and Grover Underwood go on a quest to find Zeus' stolen lightning bolts and prevent a war between the gods Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades.

Riordan finished writing his manuscript in 1994. It was accepted by Bantam Books in 1997 and later sold in an auction to Miramax Books, an imprint of Hyperion Books for Children and thus Disney Publishing (succeeded by the Disney Hyperion imprint). The Lightning Thief was published in June 2005. The book has sold over 1.2 million copies in the subsequent four years, appearing on The New York Times children's Best Seller list and being listed as one of the Young Adult Library Services Association's Best Books for Young Adults, among other awards. It was adapted into a film named Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief released in the United States on February 12, 2010. This novel is followed by The Sea of Monsters and spawned two sequel series and the extended universe of the Camp Half-Bloodchronicles.

Summary

Perseus "Percy" Jackson is a twelve-year-old New Yorker who has dyslexia and ADHD. For reasons unknown, he often finds himself in unique situations that get him kicked out of school. During a school trip to a museum, a bully, Nancy Bobofit, bullies Percy’s friend Grover. At the same time Percy defends his friend, the fountain that they were next to grabs Nancy. However, Nancy believed that she was pushed into the fountain, and lies about the incident to Mrs. Dodds, Percy's pre-algebra teacher. Mrs. Dodds separates Percy from the rest of the class before she transforms into one of the Furies from Greek mythology and attacks him. Mr. Brunner, Percy's Latin teacher, tosses a pen to Percy, and when uncapped, it transforms into a sword. Percy kills Mrs. Dodds, and when he returns to the class, no one seems to remember the pre-algebra teacher. Only Grover seems suspicious when Percy confronts him.

Percy seeks Mr. Brunner for extra help on Latin for the final the following week. However, he unwittingly hears Grover and Mr. Brunner talking about him, and about a stolen item that was important.

Percy goes home on the last day of school, and his mother Sally takes him to the beach house where Percy's parents met long ago. Unfortunately, that night, a storm rages, and Grover warns them to flee. They are attacked by the Minotaur while driving to the countryside, and in the ensuing fight, Sally disappears in a gold flash when the monster grabs her. Enraged, Percy kills the Minotaur and passes out soon afterwards.

Three days later, he wakes up in the infirmary of Camp Half-Blood, where Grover and Mr. Brunner - who is Chiron, the camp director – tell him that he is a demigod - half-mortal, half-god - but his godly parent is unknown. For this reason, he is sent to the Hermes cabin, which receives all the unclaimed demigods. During his time there, he befriends Luke, the cabin leader and son of Hermes, becomes an acquaintance of Annabeth, a daughter of Athena, and an enemy of Clarisse, who is a daughter of Ares. Through a series of events during Percy’s stay at camp, Poseidon claims him.

However, just as the trident that claimed him fades away, a hellhound bursts into camp and sends the campers into panic, as these monsters supposedly are unable to enter. To protect the camp, Chiron sends Percy on a quest.

Percy is eventually tasked by the Oracle to retrieve Zeus' stolen lightning bolt, mistakenly believed to have been taken by Poseidon. Poseidon, however, blames Hades for stealing it, in hopes of starting a war. Annabeth and Grover go west with him in order to retrieve the stolen items. However, upon reaching Hades’s lair, Hades accuses Percy of stealing his helm, threatening to kill him and his mother before releasing the dead into the world. Percy and his friends escape, and they find out that Ares had the stolen items all along. Percy fights the god of war in a duel and surprisingly wins. Percy returns the helm to Hades, and in return, Hades returns Sally safely.

After Percy returns the lightning bolt to Zeus, Luke reveals that he was the thief and is working for Kronos, the Lord of the Titans. He tries to kill Percy by calling on a pit scorpion, but Percy survives. At the end of summer, Percy ultimately chooses to return home for the school year before he comes back for the next summer.

Critical Analysis

As I read the book I find it interesting cause I really love Greek goddesses as a fan I enjoy reading the book actually I imagine myself as a demi god this book really bring me to somewhere else to a place that I didn’t imagine to the place where I belong

My favorite part of the book is the opening. It directly addresses the reader, inviting those who read the book to imagine this world as a part of their own. A little cheesy? Yes. But it’s the sort of thing that gets your imagination excited when you’re eight—what if this was really part of my world?—and it hasn’t gotten old for me as an adult, The world of The Lightning Thief brings Greek mythology into the modern world. Who knew that Mount Olympus was located on floor 1000 of the Empire State Building? Or that the Greek gods are responsible for the spread of Western civilization? Unbeknownst to us, we walk among monsters who scour the Earth hoping to find the children of Gods before the Gods do in order to eliminate their competition.

but of course there something missing What’s the twist? Instead of simply being gifted with magic, Percy is the son of a Greek God. His friends aren’t mere mortals with spell books. They are Annabeth, the daughter of Athena, and Grover, a satyr. The section of school that hates him isn’t the old home of the series’ big evil, but the most competitive section of students, the children of the God of War, Ares. And instead of Quidditch, Percy finds himself participating in a chariot race.

My percy jackson au first instalment

My name is Zoe Jackson. My brother is the infamous Percy Jackson. I am a demigod, turns out that before mom married Gabe, she had me- a child of hades. This is the story of my life... I was walking down the halls of my new school. It was a good high school in New York. I was wearing my usual attire, black shirt with skull leggings and combat boots. I was itching to get to my visual arts class that i had fifth period. I had gotten my schedule the previous week. I had to get through homeroom first. I was hoping that the teacher wouldn't call me up to introduce myself, but i guess the gods weren't pitying me that day. Nico, my half brother, walked next to me. We could've been twins. Both of us had thick black hair, pale skin, near black eyes except mine were a dark hazel and his a dark brown. We were the same age not counting nicos time in the casino. We had the same schedules thanks to chiron and dad. We got to homeroom and walked in the room. I saw paul at the desk, thank the gods, me and nico both let out a sigh of relief as we were living with paul and my mom sally-percy moved out when i got into highschool since nico was staying too. We took seats in the back of the classroom where nobody could see us and make fun of us for our ‘goth-ness’ or my shaved hair. Unfortunately for us, the back was apparently where the popular kids sat. They got near us and started laughing at us and insulting us for our looks, and paul was reading the iliad and didn't notice it. Once we got up to move to the front of the room the preppies pushed us to the floor and nico elbowed me in the gut. As we were about to get them back for the shove paul called attention to the class and we moved our things to the front of the class right by paul. He talked about the material we would have in english class this year i only heard a sentence and it was “we will be reading the iliad in class this year” befor i zoned out again hoping he had greek versions of everything for me and nico from percy’s past years at goode. As the bell rang i noticed we had free period this morning. As we went out into the hall the preppies grabbed us and pulled us outside while me and nico were trying to control our anger so civil war skeletons wouldn't pop out of the ground. They threw us onto the ground in the courtyard. They started calling us names but nico broke when one jock said “why do you dress like that? What is your family dead” he had an angry look on his face as me and him stood. He threw a punch at the leaders face as i went to deadleg him. He fell to the ground. While we were fighting one of the cowards ran and got the dean. She came up and pulled us off the leader whose name we learned was brady. We were brought to her office. She asked us why we were beating andy up. “He insulted our family” we said in unison with a scowl apparent on our faces. The dean said “you two should know not to use your demigod skills in public” we looked at her shocked. She said “my name is angelina solace, will's mom” I looked up in realization and said “hi ms.solace my name is zoe jackson and i’m will’s girlfriend” “ah so this is the girl will has been talking about so much” i blushed and nico snickered. “and you are nico di angelo am i right?” Nico was will’s best friend, so i bet will mentioned him to her. “You know i have a surprise for you two.” as she said that the door opened and a head of blonde hair walked in. “hey guys” i screeched and ran up to him and we hugged. Ms.solace chuckled. Nico walked up and they did their bro hug thing. “Why are you here” nico asked. “Why shouldn't i be at my own school?” me and nico dogpiled him. In sync we said “why were we not told!” “i wanted to see what you two would do to brady the prat” “weeeell he was flirting with me and then he insulted our family” i said. Will got mad, you could tell by the new amount of light flooding the room. “I'm gonna kill him” will growled. We said thanks to will’s mom and then took will out to cool down, and by cool down we mean throw him in the pool. After will dried off we walked to the outside plaza with me and will holding hands and nico making kissy noises and snickering behind us. The preppies walked up to us again and said to me “why don't you leave solace and date a real man like me” “well can a real man stand this”i said as i dead legged him and kicked him where it hurts. He fell to the ground groaning. We all snickered as we walked to the cafeteria. As we walked in the cafeteria everyone stopped what they were doing to look at us. We walked to a table where will said his friends sat. we sat down and meet kyle, wills friend on the track team, haley his girlfriend, jason-who we chuckled at because he was the exact opposite of our jace- his girlfriend diana-who we again chuckled at because artemis is jason's sister and her roman form is diana-  we introduced ourselves and after i said my name i said will’s girlfriend. They all said “we all thought you weren't really the way he talks about you like your half god.” jason said.                 -            -            - The end of the year has come. We spent the year getting bad grades and beating up the preppies. Our camp buds were coming to get us along with nico's boyfriend. The van flew into the lot and jolted to a stop in front of us. “Thals is driving nic” nico groaned as our budds got out of the car. Thalia jumped out of the driver's seat onto the roof of the van  and did a flip into my arms with ease. “ZOEEEEEEEE” she yeelled in my ear “THAAAAAAAAAAAAALS” i yelled back. She ran too nico and gave him a brotherly hug. Next out was percy and jason holding hands, percy and annabeth along with jason and piper had broken up because they all realized their true feelings on a double date. They were all very good friends still. They both gave us hugs. Next were annabeth and piper holding hands, then came coach hedge and mellie with little chuck. Last but not least came leo nico ran up to him and they started making out. All at once demigods and mortals alike yelled “GET A ROOM” and they pulled apart blushing like tomatoes. An instant after they were all introduced. Holographic signs popped up over the mortals heads. Kyle had a lyre, haley had a dove, jason had a caduceus, and diana had a vine. They all looked freaked out so we ushered them into the van and explained everything that had happened to all of us and percy and who their godly parents were. They all took it surprisingly well, but percy was driving. He detoured to the empire state building and demanded the key to olympus. We all headed up the elevator and we all groaned since apollo decided to play never gonna give you up the whole ride on repeat. Once we got outside the throne room, all the big three kids grabbed percy and hoisted him on our shoulders. We walked in and all the gods greeted their children, newbies to. We still had  percy on our shoulders so he couldn't attack the gods for not claiming them. He squirmed out of our grip and walked to the middle of the room. The gods themselves looked scared, they all flinched, even hades, at percy’s death glare. He spoke in a deadly low tone slowly rising in volume “what  is  this, you swore  on the styx that this would never  happen again. THEY ARE NOT THIRTEEN!” the gods look even more scared. Jason walked up to percy and pulled him into a kiss. The gods were  not informed of the relationship change so athena looked murderous but she relaxed as she noticed piper and annabeth's hands intertwined. As all the uninformed gods looked at aphrodite she slid down her  seat. “I threatened her until she swore on the styx not to tell”nico  said stepping  forward holding leo’s hand. None of the Gods noticed me yet so after nico said that i said “i helped” happily, stepping forward holding will’s  hand.”who is with who”zeus sighed. We  lined up hands  around our lovers waist. None of them looked to mad at us. Except Zeus, he was red in the face. We all waited for the blow up he was about to have. “I WILL NOT ALLOW MY SON TO DATE A SON OF POSEIDON” percy and jason both gave him death glares. He shrunk in his seat. “Ugh fine” he grumbled “i don't wanna be killed by mortals”. Hades  started to speak “the reason they were not claimed is that there was a prophecy before the prophecy of the 7. It went, heroes from 2 wars past, 4 broken oaths and 2 surprising friends, shall travel to the doors of hell and  save what 2 heroes lost in the end”. “Who are the friends?” percy asked. “Well here's a surprise for a few people” there was a bright flash and when our eyes cleared percy, annabeth and thalia gasped. There stood, luke castellan and zöe nightshade. They ran up and thalia and annabeth ran up to luke and gave him a huge hug tears streaming down their faces. Zöe and percy were talking and zӧe hugged him, he looked shocked. I walked up and jumped on luke's back. He grabbed me and said “zoe is that you?!” “sure is lucas”he scowled. Everyone had a confused face. “How the heck do you know him!!” everyone yelled. I looked at him and he nodded. “You know when i was younger i ran away from him”i said looking at percy. He nodded, “during that time  i meet  luke here, this was way before thalia and annabeth met him. We didn't know we were demigods. We wound up in nebraska, we had  just gotten away from a man who we now know is a cyclops, he’s like a brother to me.” will looked relieved. Luke spoke “why are we here”, the gods explained the new prophecy and everyone was introduced. “Doors of hell?” Leo said confused. Percy, nico, annabeth and I gasped. “Not hell tartarus” percy said dejectedly. “Bob and damasen!” Percy shouted “save what two heroes lost in the end I get it” i said…”we all go to tartarus and save Bob a.k.a Iapetus and Damasen” everyone who hadn't been there looked scared...me? Oh i have been there i was 14 just out of 8th grade a sphinx cornered me in an alleyway. I had killed the sphinx but it grabbed me in its maw before it turned to dust. I was pulled to tartarus with it. I escaped through not the doors of death but through tartarus’ mouth. Since i am a child of hades I saw it fully. Would not recommend it as a vacation spot. While i was stuck there i ran into nyx. She saw me bleeding out after a hellhound attack and took me in. She was kinda like a sister to me. She let me stay there and told me about the other exit. The less dangerous one but before i left she blessed me and enhanced all my powers as a child of hades as well as giving me more control over her monstrous children. I made the trek to the mouth. It looked like the exit of a spelunking cavern. I climbed up the throat and escaped it wasn't easy but once i did i ran too dad's palace. He fixed me up as i told him the story. Then I made him swear on the styx never to tell anyone what happened. But everyone knew something had happened, i didn't come to camp over the summer and when i came for winter break i had tons more scars than before. Someone shouting zoe brought me back from my reminiscing it was will. He noticed the tears running down my face and asked what was wrong...i told them everything from the sphinx too being in dad's palace. Everyone looked shocked. “What the hell zoe!” Percy, nico and will yelled “why didn't you tell me” i looked down “because i knew this would happen” the gods but dad still stared at me in wonder. “Wait you were blessed by nyx a primordial” athena said “ that would put you at the power level of me or ares” again everyone looked at me in shock. Ares looked jealous. Zeus yelled “she is too powerful she must die” “NO” everyone else screamed but dionysus because he was sleeping. He was jolted awake so that was funny. Will was holding me as i slid to the ground in tears. It was too much for me to handle i had been holding it in for two years and i only told dad. I was broken. I don't know why will would want me. I curled into a ball and sobbed. Percy and nico both done glaring at zeus rushed over along with dad, Hermes and poseidon. Hermes and poseidon are like uncles to me. Will was still hugging me and percy and nico both grabbed me and squeezed me till i couldn't breath. Those three all let go and then it was the gods turn poseidon and hermes were first and then dad who after a long hug brought me to sit on his throne with him.
