Chapter 691

Percy thought for a second before speaking, "you. You are the key

figure fixing it all together. The Greeks have you, the egyptians

believed the world came from a sea of you, the christians and the

muslims basically believe you are everything and...well I don't really

know all that much about Hindus."

Chaos nodded, "correct. And for the record Hindus believe in one God

as well, me."

"Wait, but I thought-"

"That they had hundred and hundreds of Gods for everything? Yes,

that is also true. Each and every God represents a piece of me, a piece

representing a certain personality or aspect of life. A fighting Goddess

to represent the fury of women, a sagely God to represent the

immovability of the human spirit, the ruler of Gods to represent

absolute law of my existence and even death to represent the end of

all, which I can do."

Percy nodded as he followed along. He sipped his drink and looked at

Chaos, "so….what are you?"

Chaos tilted his head, "what do you mean?"

Percy could hear the amusement in it's tone, that meant he was on the

right track. "I mean what are you? You aren't a God, you told me that

much, you aren't a….you aren't anything that I know off. So what are

you?"

Chaos remained silent for the longest time, Percy feared he may have

crossed a line he shouldn't have, but in the end his patience won as

Chaos spoke again. "When I first introduced myself what did I call

myself Percy?"

Percy formed, "Chaos, you called yourself Chaos."

"No, before that," Chaos sipped his coffee, "think."

Percy recalled back to when he first met this being, when he first felt

his amazing stature and he remembered, "collected human abstract

opion system."

Chaos nodded, "correct. Now….what am I?"

"I don't know."

"Think."

"You can't just say think and expect me to get an idea!"

"Then think harder!"

"Oh shut up! Shouting never works!"

Chaos shrugged, "then think."

Percy growled as he closed his eyes and he started think. The words,

'collected human abstract opion system'. C. H. A. O. S. Collected,

human and system, they were simple enough, but A and O, what did

they mean? Abstract options? What are abstract options?

"They are thoughts," Chaos spoke up, "abstract options means one's

thoughts."

Percy glared at the entity for reading his mind, again, but he was too

focused on continuing his train of thought to do anything more. So

thoughts, so that meant he was collected human thoughts? What does

that even….mean….no...it wasn't possible.

Percy looked at Chaos with wide eyes, "you….you are everything

right? The beginning and the end, the Alpha and the Omega. Right?"

Chaos shook his head, "no. I'm not. When I said I was the Alpha and

the Omega I meant not in terms of age, but in terms of power. When

compared to me nothing on Earth is stronger, or weaker. I am all and

everything humans believe in. You are starting to understand, yes?"

"A-a collection, you're a collection of human thoughts and ideas," Percy

realized. A look of shock on his face as he slowly pieced together what

he was being told.

"Yes," Chaos sipped his drink, "you know we talked about all those

religions before but we never talked about a very popular one,

buddhism. Did you know that it is actually a branch of Hinduism? It's

true, very similar ideas and everything, Buddha himself was once a

Hindu prince named Siddhartha, nice guy, kind of preachy though. Also

had the same look of horror on his face you do when he met me."

"You met Buddha?" Percy asked in shock.

"Yes, it's a very popular story in the real world," Chaos said as he

pushed the cup of coffee to the side, "one day Buddha was praying, he

was in a deep meditative state unlike ever before. He didn't eat for

days, he didn't move at all. He was stuck in a limbo within his own

mind, until he realised he wasn't alone. Until he realised he was with

me."

"Y-you didn't call him...did you?"

Chaos shook his head, "no, I didn't. He came here by his own power."

"How? How is that even possible?! He's just a human right?! He isn't a

demigod or something?!"

Chaos shook his head, "no, you are right, he is just a human, but you

of all people must realize humans are much stronger than the Gods

they pray to in some ways."

Percy stayed silent as he pushed his cup of coffee away, "so...what

happened?"

"Well he asked me a lot of questions, and I answered. I told him

everything he wanted to know, and he left with a knowledge no other

human before obtained. The truth. Well no other human except you

that is. Until now."

Percy blinked, "wait if whatever he found out was really all that

amazing then….why didn't he tell anyone?"

"Because if he knew if he did it would destroy the world as we all know

it," Chaos explained, "like it almost did 2,000 years ago."

Percy's eyes went wide, "w-what did you say?"

"Didn't Argo tell you Percy? Didn't he tell you to ask, to search for what

happened all that time ago? Why the world was almost destroyed?"

"I-I never thought to look. I was always so busy that I didn't-"

"No...I suppose you didn't. The reason the world was going to be

destroyed Percy was because back then people knew, they knew the

truth that Buddha realized. And it gave them power and you know what

they say about power and corruption."

"What was the truth?" Percy feared to ask.

Chaos looked at him, and for a second Percy swore he saw every

single galaxy on itself blink out of existence. Suddenly Chaos chuckled,

"the Fates are knocking on the door. They are trying to stop me," the

galaxies blinked again, "they really don't want me to tell you.

Apparently you aren't ready for it."

Percy narrowed his eyes, "no...no for once I want to know. All this time

I was happy just being able to protect the ones I love but now I need to

know! Why did they pick me?! Why me out of all the people in the

world?! What the hell happened 2,000 years ago?!"

Chaos nodded, "Buddha realized the truth. That God, the divine world

and everything humans believe in...is a lie."

Percy blinked, "what the actual fuck are you talking about?"

Chaos chuckled, "well that's one reaction. Honestly I half expected you

to blow up and start going crazy."

Percy leaned back on the booth and sighed, "look what are you talking

about? I'm the son of a God. I have literally visited Olympus countless

times. My best friend in the son of a God, my girlfriend is the daughter

of a god, I have meet Gods! So how the hell are they real?!"

Chapter 692

"Remember what I said?" Chaos spoke up in it's calm voice,

"remember what conclusion we drew up? That I am the origin of all

religions in the world? That they all in some way admit I created

everything?"

"Yes but…." Percy's eyes went wide, "oh my...oh my God." Chaos

created everything, chaos, the collected humans abstract opion

system. A collection of human thoughts and ideas created….religion.

"There is one power humanity posses that no other creature in the

universe has," Chaos continued, "one power that separated them from

everything in creation. The power of belief. The power of hope. The

power of thought. Humans survived because they believed they would,

that belief soon grew in size and power. Eventually that power became

strong enough to create life. And the most widely held beliefs at the

time became real. The Gods became real. One day they were stories

and the next they weren't.

"And 2,000 years ago people became aware of this power, they

became aware that they held the key to create things that could

destroy mountains with a thought and they used them, they used the

Gods they worshiped to kill each other. They nearly destroyed the

world, and so the Gods, every single pantheon in existence at the time

came together and sealed away the divine world and the human's

world. They set up rules for each of them to follow, the ancient rules, to

ensure that humanity would never cause it's own destruction again."

Find about the real history of the -

"Oh not now," Chaos huffed flicking his arms to the side dismissing

Percy's blue screen.

But Percy wasn't even paying attention. His face was pale, he couldn't

believe what he was hearing. "H-how? How is that possible?! How

could...how could this be real?! Am I not real?! Is my dad just a figment

of my imagination?! What are you talking about?!"

"Ah, there's the freak out."

"Shut up! Shut the fuck up!" Percy stood up and threw their table out

the large cafe window. He could feel his anger giving him strength,

"how? How the fuck do you expect me to believe this?! How the fuck

can humans have such a power and yet never discover it?!"

Chaos shrugged, "it's not easy to control, or understand. But with

proper training anyone can do it. Well, maybe not anyone."

"Bullshit! Even if that was true then I would have at least heard about

something like that! There would be whispers! There would be rumors!

Someone somewhere would have mentioned it!"

"But they have mentioned it to you Percy," Chaos stood up straight

reaching Percy's shoulders, "they have told you time and time again. In

fact I believe you have personally dealt with this power before," Chaos

reached out and touched Percy's shoulder. The demigod flinched in

surprise, but watched as Chaos traced a finger from Percy's left

shoulder to his right hip, "I believe you know it as Haki."

Ping!

Quest Completed!

Learn about Haki!

Rewards,

Haki!

"By the way just because it says you will get Haki doesn't mean you will

just instantly learn it," Chaos explained sipping his coffee, "you still

have to learn it."

Percy's eyes went wide. "N-no...haki can't...it can't rewrite reality, it

can't-"

"It can," Chaos snapped his fingers bringing Percy and him back to the

sky world from before, "tell me Percy, every time you saw it being

used...who was the wielder?"

Percy thought of it, he remembered seeing Artemis use it to turn him

into a deer. His father used to to clean a lake in central used it to….to

survive his Death touch, a power that the Fates themselves back up

via Percy's gaming powers. And Eracleous used it to cut into his flesh.

Except Argo all of them were divine all of them….were divine.

"None of them were human, they were all created by haki, by faith, by

will power. The haki of a divine will always be weaker than that of a

human's. That's why they performed mere parlor tricks while Argo

defined the Fates themselves when he survived your Death Touch. It's

man's weapon against god, because it is the weapon that created the

Gods in the first place."

"T-that isn't….Argo...why hasn't he killed me yet? If Haki is really as

powerful as you say then shouldn't he be able to kill me just by thinking

it?"

Chaos shook his head, "no. The will of one man is rarely enough to

alter reality so badly. It would take hundred if not thousands of humans

wishing for it to happen. And that too provided all those humans knew

how to handle Haki like an expert."

"T-this isn't possible! What the hell! Am I real? Is Thalia? Is camp?! If

the Gods aren't real then everything I fucking know is-is a-" Percy head

started to spin as he held it in pain. He dropped down to his knees and

fell back, panic and horror rushing over his thoughts.

Chaos sighed, "I guess it was a little too much to take in," the being sat

down next to Percy, "and for the record….you are real. So is Thalia, nd

Grover and Michael and everyone else in world that you live in."

"Even the Gods?"

"Especially the Gods."

"But you just said that they aren't real. That...that they were made...by

man."

Chaos shrugged, "humans are born out of vaginas, Gods are born out

of thought. What's the difference? They came into existence in different

ways, doesn't make them any real. Haki makes things real Percy, it's

not an illusion."

"Then….then what about all those stories? Of Rhea giving birth to Zeus

and my father? Are they real?"

Chaos nodded, "yes, they are. Have created me, I created the

primordials, who created the titans who created the Gods. Even the

Gods themselves never knew of this truth...that is until 2,000 years

ago. They were actors who never realised they were acting. As like you

even they were a bit...distraught, couldn't bring themselves up to do

anything right. Hence the dark ages."

Percy opened his eyes, his head slowly clearing up. "And you….you're

the power aren't you? The collection of human thoughts….haki given

form."

"Yes. I am. When they first started to believe, when they first started to

come together as one….I was born. I was born out of the beliefs of

humans, and I became their God. I guess in a lot of ways I….I am the

first servant of humankind."

Chapter 693

Percy looked at the sky, the beautiful beautiful sky. For a moment he

forgot what he had just learnt, he became numb to his fears and pain.

He would give anything to just walk away without this knowledge, to

have someone else deal with this bullshit. But no, it was him. It was

always him. And it was about time he found out why.

"Why me."

Chaos sighed, "imagine every religion is a story. It has a beginning,

where I come in a make everything. It has a middle, where the Gods

rule. Tell me what comes next?"

Percy's eyes went wide, "an ending."

"Now tell me what would happen if people truly believed the world

would end? What would happen?"

"If humans can still use Haki...then the world….it would end."

"Haki was sealed away, the knowledge removed. But before that was

done the religions created already had an ending planned out. For the

Greeks Kronos would rise again. For the Christians the devil would

return along with Christ. For the Hindus the world would be destroyed

and then restarted. For the Egyptians the great snake Apophis would

destroy the Earth by swallowing the sun. For the Norse Ragnarok

would arrive and for Buddhist….well they believe the Earth would be

burnt alive by the sun, which is actually going to happen so….well

never mind them."

Chaos turned to Percy, "now tell me Percy, what would happen if those

stories came true? If those beliefs actually happened?"

Percy's eyes opened in horror, "the world...it would be destroyed."

"Completely and utterly destroyed. And the one's responsible for it

happening would be humans, and they wouldn't even know."

"So that's why they recruited me? To stop Kronos?" Percy asked.

"No, no Kronos will be taken care of, Thalia will see to it. You have a

bigger role to play. The Fates took a gamble with you. They gave you a

power without potential, without limits. It can make you a god, and they

did so because you won't just stop one doomsday...you'll stop them

all."

Percy looked at Chaos, "you're crazy."

"No I'm not, my mother had me tested," Chaos chuckled.

"What?"

"It's from the Big Bang theory. What? You don't watch...or right, it's only

2007 for you, forgot. Anyway, no, I'm being serious."

"You want me to stop every single doomsday in the world?! Are you

crazy?!"

"Someone has to Percy, they are all essentially ticking time bombs,

someone has to defuse them."

"And why does that have to be me?!"

"I think I better let them tell you," Chaos snapped his fingers and

suddenly three women stood before Percy, one old enough to be his

mother, one his sister and the other around the age of twenty.

The oldest one snapped her head to Chaos, "you told him didn't you,"

she hissed.

Chaos nodded "yes, it had to be done."

"He wasn't ready!" the twenty year old, that Percy knew to be Clotho

replied.

"He needed to be told," was Chaos' simple reply.

"And what if he does something stupid?!" the youngest asked.

"He won't."

"How do you know?!" they asked as one.

Chaos shrugged, "cause then the story would be really really boring.

And nobody wants that."

"We hate you!" they yelled once again.

Chaos shrugged, "couldn't care less. Now tell him what he has to here

and leave, I'm not done with him yet."

The Fates all glared at Chaos before they turned to Percy. Clotho

looked sad, she always liked him the most, while the youngest,

Lachesis, just looked irritated beyond belief. Atropos looked concerned

and after giving each other a look Clothes stepped up and spoke.

"You have questions-"

"No, only one," Percy snapped, "why? Why me?"

Clotho sighed, she turned to her sister who shrugged. She looked back

at Percy, "because we believed you were the only one who would use

this power to our favour."

"Every religion has a hero, someone or something that's supposed to

save the day and end the apocalypse," Lachesis spoke up, "but we

don't trust them, how could we? The risk of what would happen if they

failed was too high. We needed an insurance policy. We needed you."

"The power we gave you….it broke the rules," Atopos explained, "but it

had to be done. We gave it to you because….because we needed

someone we could control. Someone who was duty bound to those

around him, who is loyal to a fault, who would never betray us."

"No...no you didn't. You needed a lacky," Percy spat.

"No Percy it isn't like that," Clotho spoke in a gentle tone, "we needed a

hero. One that would surpass all the heroes before him. The rules we

have? The rules we made? They were made because the Gods

couldn't be trusted to keep their word. But you...someone whose very

essence is a representation of said rules? Well you would never break

them, because it was who you are. We needed a hero that would never

falter, who would never betray, who would always do the right thing."

"We needed someone to make sure the world wouldn't end because

some idiot priest wasn't strong enough," Lachesis said flatly, "or maybe

some valkyrie wasn't brave enough. One mistake, and it's all over."

"Why now?" Percy asked, "it's been so long, why did you need

someone now? 2,000 years, why is it suddenly decided that the world

is going to end? Why has all these religions suddenly decided that the

world must end?"

"Because we are standing at the start of the next chapter of human

civilization," Chaos spoke, "humans have evolved so far from what they

were, they believe less and less in the divine, and this makes the gods

weaker. They are dieing, slowly, but surely, and so now at the turn of

the century the end of all religions must occur, because without

shedding away the old Gods, the new cannot take their place."

"New Gods?" Percy asked, "what new gods?"

"Before man believed in other wordly things in order to survive, in order

to understand the world around them," Clotho explained, "but now they

believe in themselves, they believe in their own abilities. Man has put

up a statue of himself to worship, that is their new God."

"And if you wish to save the human race, you must ensure the end of

all religions as we know it," Chaos finished leaving Percy stunned

silent.

The next words were said with horror and fear, "I can't do that. I

can't….I can't-what if I fail?!"

"Then you fail," Chaos shrugged.

"I'm being serious!"

"So am I," the collected thoughts of humankind flicked it's hand and

suddenly the Fates disappeared. They looked started for a second, but

then they vanished without a trace leaving Percy and Chaos alone.

"If you die Percy, then you die. If you fight, then you will live. It's as

simple as that."

"Why the hell should?! Why should I do all this fuckign bullshit!? Why

me!"

"They already told you why."

"They had no right to do this! To-to force me into this!"

"And yet they did….so what are you going to do about it?"

"I...I..." Percy sat down with a sigh, "I don't' know. All this power….I

knew there was a cost but….I just didn't….I didn't expect this."

"I know...and I….I suppose in a way I can relate."

"You? How?"

"Well I never asked for this did I?" Chaos asked, "I never wanted to be

a collection of human thoughts and emotions creating divine creatures

and all that. I never even had a choice, one day I just was and I knew

my role. I have performed it dutifully and over time...well I suppose I

started to get bored. I started to get restless and….look that's not

important, what I'm trying to say is this. The world is a fragile place, it

has been and alway will be. And it needs people like us, people

who….who have the temperament to protect it, even though we don't

wish for that duty."

Chaos snapped his fingers and suddenly the world changed. Percy

saw himself standing before a destroyed camp, he was younger,

around 12, this was the time Luke and Hyperion attacked the camp, he

saw himself slowly grow enraged as he swore vengeance.

"This was the moment, the moment where you realised if you didn't

take this seriously, people would die. This was the moment when you

stopped playing around, when you stopped acting your age, because

the people at camp needed leader, they needed a hero, and you chose

to become that hero. Like we are asking you to do now."

"It's different."

"How? Would you not stop to protect an innocent woman on the road if

she was attacked? Wouldn't you try and catch a killer for justice?

Wouldn't you try and protect a little boy from his abusive step father?

For me sake Percy, you work as a fucking cop on the weekends. Being

a hero is in your blood. The only difference now is I'm asking you to do

it not just for the Greeks...but for the whole world."

Chapter 694

Percy remained silent as he saw the scene from over a year ago act

out. He saw himself loose his mind as Le Bete took over. He saw

himself attack Hyperion, cleaving his arm off, and he saw himself return

to the Underworld to barter for the souls of his friends. He saw himself

grow up to be a hero, grow up and stand right where he stood now.

"I didn't ask for this."

"The person who is most qualified to be given power is the one who

knows it's burden and rejects it. Only they can use it properly with the

respect it deserves."

"Are you quoting someone?"

"Yes, me."

Percy remained silent as he looked at the world before him. He sighed,

"i-if I…..if I agree...will you send me back?"

"I was planning on doing that even if you didn't. Only diffrence is I

would have removed your powers and given them to someone else."

"I see…."

"Having second thoughts?"

"Yes."

"Good, because only a madman would want all this power and

responsibility," Chaos sighed, "now I'm going to ask you this one more

time...are you sure Percy?"

"If the world is truly in danger...then there's no one else I would trust to

say it other than myself. Is that….does that sound a bit arrogant?"

Chaos shrugged, "not if it's true."

Percy chuckled, "yeah...yeah… I'll do it. Like I have a choice right?"

"Exactly," Chaos snapped his fingers and suddenly Percy felt a wave of

calm wash over his trouble thoughts. Gamer's mind was back, and it

was purring like a kitty pushing away all his doubts and regrets. He

only had one goal, save the world or die trying. No pressure.

Rewards;

Skill: Gamer vision

Power mimicker

Level 10 skill disk

Percy narrowed his eyes at the last reward, " ? What's that?"

"It's a patch, a gaming patch. It's time you got an upgrade," Chaos

snapped his fingers and suddenly the blue notification in front of Percy

fritzed out of sight. A black screen appeared with the words:

'Loading new program. Please Wait'.

And then Percy felt his body reboot. The black screen disappeared

replaced with a new type of screen. It was circular with greek runes

along the edge, in the center was a message written in black;

'Welcome to the gaming system, 2.0. Please note that there have

been several changes made to your gaming style and system.

Discover them first before use. Thank you!'

Percy turned to Chaos, "what did you do?"

"It's about time you got an upgrade, the Fates didn't really put much

thought into their system, and not to brag but I am the creator of

everything, so mine is much better. Relax though, it's not that different,

just...a bit more streamlined. Now here are the rest of your rewards,"

Chaos snapped his fingers summoning a power mimicker sphere and a

skill disk in front of Percy.

Percy grabbed them and opened his inventory, only to discover that

even this had changed. Now everything had been separated into

smaller section, clothes, weapons, misc, aids and even food! Percy

smiled as he put his two new rewards in watching them automatically

sort themselves into the aids section.

"Now, I believe it's time for you to go," Chaos snapped it's fingers

summoning a portal of yellow light, "thought that portal is Thailand

Morpheus, I suggest you hurry. They are in trouble, Kronos has

invaded the dreamworld and is looking for Morpheus, if the god of

dreams die then the dream world is destroyed. I don't think I need to

tell you how bad that is."

Percy nodded, "right, tsunami!" Percy armour activated dawning itself

around him. Percy stepped up to the portal and stopped, "I...I won't'

ever see you again will I?"

"No, you will. Maybe not in the way yous aw me now, but you will. I am

a part of you Percy, your thoughts and ideas run through my head we

are one, there is no reason to say we won't meet again."

Percy chuckled, "for once I would like a straight answer."

"Yeah, never going to happen. My character's not designed that way,"

Chaos shrugged.

"Right...well then, it's been real...I think," Percy walked up to the portal

and without a second thought jumped through.

Dreamland:

"I hate this guy!" Robb cried out as he ran back holding his melted

sword.

"Jason hit him again with lighting! Thalia grab Morpheus and get out of

here!" Julia ordered as she and the other demigods surrounded the

flaming titan. The Roman Gods worked together as a unit facing him

head on while the greeks were spread out, flanking his sides.

"I can still help!" Thalia growled.

"You are out of weapons and low on power, you can't help, get

Morpheus to safety, he still needs to wake the rest of us up!" Julia

ordered as Hyperion charged the roman unit.

The soldiers were lucky all armed, they had been posted on gaurd duty

and had their weapons with them when they slept. So they used said

weapons and blocked Hyperion's charge with a wall of shields, pushing

him back, but not before Hyperion sent a blast of fire, burning the front

line.

"Fuck!" Jason cursed as he felt the flames hurt him. He felt the pain,

but after a moment it went away, and his body was still in one piece.

Being in this dreamland had it's benefits.

"Morpheus! Come back here!" Hyperion roared as he turned and

charged at Thalia and Morpheus.

"Shit!" the demigoddess cursed as she limped away with Morpheus on

her shoulder for support. Julia jumped into Hyperion's path but the

Titan swung his fist throwing her to the side.

Chapter 695

"Julia!" Robb cried out as he jumped to grab her. They rolled around

the ground and stopped just in time to see Hyperion reach Thalia and

sent a blast of fire at the girl. It was inches away from hitting her when

suddenly a blur of speed came in and swept them away from the blast.

"What the-" Hyperion's eyes went wide in shock, he looked around for

the missing minor god and demigoddess when suddenly the blur was

back. It collided head first into Hyperion's chest breaking off a huge

chuck of the armour with a deafening crack;

KRACK!

Hyperion stumbled back, he panted, "how-"

KRACK!

KRACK!

KRACK!

The hits kept on coming as more and more hits landed on the Titan.

Pieces of his bronze armour was slowly stripped away leaving the titan

bleeding and hurt, bad.

"Who is doing this?!" the titan roared, "who dares-" a fist met his face

sending the titan tumbling back ass over head into the wall. He looked

up, pushing past the pain and the numbness in his jaw to see a figure

standing before him decked in black armour with a white cape attached

to his back.

The helmet slid back and the bane of Hyperion's dreams stood before

him. The boy who took his arm when he was 12, the boy who lead the

greek demigods.

Thalia and Morpheus stood a few feet away besides the other

demigods. The god gasped, "it's not possible… he shouldn't be alive."

Thalia just smirked, "sure keep telling yourself that."

Percy Jackson smiled down at Hyperion, "hey there fire butt, what

brings you here?"

"Jackson!" Hyperion roared as he tried to summon his fire to him only

for a wave of water to come crashing down into his body, binding itself

around his limbs and spreading outwards.

Percy turned to Morpheus, "why isn't he dead?"

Morpheus blinked in surprise, "I-I, only I can kill people in this world.

Me and whoever I give permission to."

"Then give permission to me," Percy narrowed his eyes, "now."

The God of dreams flinched at the command. He nodded, "I give you

the right to this world Percy Jackson."

Percy turned to Hyperion and smiled, "looks like you just reached the

end of your line Hyperion." He drew out Waverider and turned it into its

sword form. He channeled his rage into his weapon turing the white

lines red activating it's rage mode;

Ping!

Percy meet Hyperion's eyes and grinned, "now lets see how strong you

really are flame breath," he vanished in a rush of speed disappearing

down the hallway before charging back with the speed of a bullet.

Percy trusted his blade like a spear into Hyperion's chest,

Waverider- 100,000 X 4 = 400,000 + 424,674,360 = 425,074,360

attack!

The titan's eyes bulged in horror as he saw all his ichor leak out in

bursts. He looked up in horror at Percy, "y-you bastard."

And suddenly he exploded into golden dust.

Ping! Ping!

You have gained two levels!

Percy dismissed the box and turned to the loot he got from Hyperion.

There was his flaming blade, a book with the skill 'Flame control' on it

and a glowing chest piece similar to the one he was wearing while

alive.

Percy grabbed the skill book and put it away,, he would need it later.

He then turned to the gathered demigods who were staring at him in

awe. They had never seen a titan defeated in combat before, and

never so badly.

Percy however didn't pay attention to their looks of awe, he had eyes

for only one person across the hall standing besides the god of

dreams.

Thalia's eyes watered as he walked towards her deactivating his

armour. "Percy-" she began only for him to grab her head and kiss her

as deeply putting every single emotion he had into it. She sighed in

happiness as she curled her fingers around his hair.

She broke it first whispering, "I missed you so much."

"I thought you were gone," Percy whispered back.

"I knew you would come for me."

Percy chuckled, "always." He moved back and turned to Morpheus,

"you and I have a match to settle," Percy growled.

"No, not right now," thalia stepped in between Percy and the God,

"Kronos has just brought his entire army here, we need his help if we

want to survive."

"What? Kronos? Here? Now?" Percy cursed, "how many?"

"I can sense at least 5,000 soldiers invading my realm at the moment,"

Morpheus informed.

Percy sighed, "right," he turned and noticed Julia and Robb looked at

him in their star struck gaze, "stop gawking, we have work to do you

two."

"R-right," Robb snapped his mouth shut.

"Any ideas?" Julia asked.

"Kronos brought his army, it's time we brought ours," Percy looked at

the white pods and then at Morpheus, "can you release all the

demigods here?"

"Yes, but it will take some time. Some of them have already been

captured by Hypnos and the others though, we need to get them back."

"Then that's what we'll do while you free the rest," Percy turned to Julia

and Robb, "you two lead the romans and I'll take care of the greeks,

any objections?"

"Yeah, I have one," Robb spoke up.

Percy sighed, "Robb we don't have time for bureaucratic bullshit right

now. We need-"

"-Yeah, I know, which is exactly why I don't think we should be divided

on this. You should lead us Percy, all of us."

Percy blinked in surprise, "Rob are you sure?"

"Yeah...I just saw you kill the brother of Saturn in you swing of your

blade….I would be crazy not to think you weren't qualified."

Percy smiled, "got it," he grabbed Hyperion's blade and tossed it to

Robb, "here you might need this." Robb grabbed it and smiled.

"Right then everyone," Percy drew his blade and set forward, "let's go

save our friends."

Chapter 696

The army of the titans were the experiments of Argo. Before he 'died'

he created a way for the Titans to mutate a large portion of the animal

kingdom into demi-humans. These monsters were smarter and skilled

at combat each carrying weapons while decked out in an iron

chestplate and helmet.

They stood 5,000 strong in front of the large blue portal, many more

coming through each second. They stood in rows of 20, shields locked

and ready. They were physically imposing, each of them looked

powerful enough to tear a human body in half with their bare hands.

Tigers had fur strong enough to deflect bullets, rhinos were heavy and

large, but charged as fast as a car.

They were all highly trained and physically very imposing. Their senses

enhanced, leagues ahead of what a normal human could do or see,

able to see clearly in the night, hear the tiniest pin drop, able to track

their prey like a bloodhound.

But they never saw him coming.

His form was barely seen, even by their advance senses. His blades

had just been a flash of blue and bronze in a rush of speed. It was like

a missile hit their ranks, breaking apart the first five rows of soldiers,

throwing them in every which direction as he crashed into them.

The whirlwind of destruction stopped at the heart of the army, clearing

a way through the center of their ranks. They charged at him, but didn't

stand a chance. They were sent flying back, cut into pieces, and before

they could even understand what was going on five more joined the

battle.

"Fire!" Alecto cried out as she launched five arrows into the army. They

each hit their mark in the chest of a titan soldier, but the moment they

did, the tip exploded, taking out everyone around them.

A fog of shadows then came crashing into the army ranks, any who

entered it didn't come out. The fog swallowed everything, it grew bigger

and bigger, until it stopped. The animals around it watched it cautiously,

waiting for something to happen, and it did.

The fog condensed into Marcia in her winged wolf form, the demon

looked around her and smirked, "looks like it's lunch time!" She

pounced onto a juicy looking pig with an axe and tore open its throat.

Just as an alligator swordsman was about to swing at Marcia's wings a

ball of compressed wind crashed into him right in the face.

"I got your back doggy!" Timmy cried out as he rode into the battle

flying over the animals. He had Zed and Craig floating besides him,

both looking very nervous. Timmy turned to the two, "you two ready?!"

"I hate this plan!" Zed cried out, even Craig looked nervous.

"What are you talking about? It's brilliant!" Timmy cried out as he

dropped them both with Marcia as the three stood side by side, killing

every titan soldier then came close.

"Goblin! I need a wind tunnel!" Alecto called out as she readied an

arrow.

"Sure, where?"

"There," Alecto aimed at a elephant with a mace standing near the

back, he was charging at Percy, aiming to kill crush him with a body

slam.

"No problem!" Timmy called out summoning a tunnel of wind in front of

Alecto's arrow. The Fury released and the arrow shot forward faster

than a bullet. It flew through the air, implying the elephant right

between the eyes causing him to fall on his behind, crushing the

animals standing behind him.

Timmy and Alecto brought death from above, Marcia, Zed and Craig

took care of the ground troops while Percy created a zone of death,

killing everything that came near him before they could even blink. But

just as the soldier near the front line turned to charge them, a cry came

from down the tunnel.

"Charge!" Rob called out as he charged with the sword of Hyperion

raised into the air shining brightly as a torch for the others to follow.

The sword gleamed bright yellow, like the flames it's previous master

controlled, as it sliced into the body of a charging bear.

The army of demigods cleaved into the monster, killing them with their

godly powers. Thalia and Jason combined their power sending

lightning bolts into the army, frying several monsters into dust. Julia

and a few other children of Venus/Aphrodite used their magic to throw

make up into the monster's eyes blinding them before the children of

Ares/Mars struck them down.

"Flank them!" Percy roared from inside the heart of the monster army,

"Rob! Lead the left, Jason the right! Alecto! Timmy! Provide air

support!"

"Aye!" the army obeyed it's leader, flanking the much larger monster

army.

"You got it boss!" Alecto cried out as she moved to support the

demigod army, killing any monster that even came close to killing a

demigod.

The monster quickly gathered themselves from the initial charge and

began to attack back at the demigods. They quickly began to push

back, they struck with their mighty arms, swinging their weapons faster

and stronger than their human enemies could ever hope to match.

Percy saw they were losing the advantage, he needed to move. He

threw his weapons into the air and with his mind began to swing them

around telekinetically, creating a cyclone of spinning blades.

Percy gathered his earthquake mana into his hands as he released all

of his strength seals;

STR- 0.146

Seal release: Layer 10 Time: 1 1.2 months

STR- 42,467,328 (+11+20+75) = 42,467,436

Body Form Activated: Full Body!

STR- 42,467,436 X 10 = 424,674,360

Percy clicked his teeth and took in a rush of speed. His body was a

blur as he tore through the monster reaching the front lines. The army

was thrown onto their sides as Percy rushed through them like a

speeding bullet.

He stopped at the front lines and began to cleave away at the animals

ranks just enough for his army to press on the advantage.

Percy's greatest talent had always been his skill with the blade, but his

greatest power had always been the pure destruction he could cause

with his fists alone. He wasn't a complex person, even with his great

intelligence he always looked for the simplest solution. If there was a

problem, he would punch right through it.

And that was what he did.

He tore through them with his bare hands. His blows destroyed them

instantly, their bodies unable to handle the sheer force behind his

attacks. His blades danced around his sides like protection, a chrysalis

of metal that tore through any enemy stupid enough to engage him.

He was a storm, their reckoning, he tore a line of destruction through

the middle of the enemy army with his army following right behind him.

The demigods had flanked them on the side and had a line of attack

through the center. They had the monsters cornered, cleaving through

them like a knife through butter.

The army of 5,000 was reduced to an army of 2,000 in ten minutes, the

demigods fighting tirelessly. Percy's servants were monsters, and not

just in name. The titan army was being pushed back so far Marcia, Zed

and Craig were able to rejoin in the army's front lines.

Percy smiled, "keep pushing! We just need to throw them through

the portal!"

"AYE!" the yelled back as they kept the attack up, the animals running

back in fear of their very lives.

Chapter 697

But just as things seemed to calm down, the portal started to shake

violently. Percy's eyes grew wide in concern as the entire dream world

began to shake, the white pods hanging above them clicked and

clacked as they shock. The portal started fizzing out as golden lighting

started mixing in with the baby blue energy.

"What's happening?!" Thalia asked.

"I think the portal's breaking up!" Julia suggested.

"No," Percy growled, "it's being used to bring him here."

"Who?" a roman demigod asked.

"Kronos," Percy whispered. And suddenly a chilling air came bursting

through the portal. A small figure stepped out, Percy's heart started

beating faster and faster, was this it? Was that Kronos?

'No, no. Kronos is much bigger,' Percy told himself as Hypnos stepped

out, still dressed in his striped pyjamas. The white haired god didn't

look sleepy, in fact he looked very alert. There were circles around his

eyes now, but they were from stress rather than exhaustion.

"Hypnos," Percy growled, he pushed forward with a great shove, the

monsters in front of him all feel down on their backs giving Percy a

good look at the god, "I heard you betrayed us."

"Yes Jackson, I did," Hypnos nodded, "I'm sorry you had to find out this

way."

"You're a sick little fuck you know that?" Percy growled as he brought

both his blades to his hand as he began charging forward, killing any

monster that got in his way.

"You know what they say, it's always better to be on the winning side

than the right side."

"And whose side are you on?"

"His," Hypnos stepped aside the portal and suddenly the rumbling

started again. The whole world of dreams shock as an entity more

powerful than the Olympian Gods stepped through the portal.

First a hand came out, Percy recognized the hand, he had seen it grab

hold of half the golden fleece, tearing it away from him. The hand was

golden brown and slowly the rest of him stepped through.

The head came out next, and all the fighting stopped. The man had

hair black as night, his beard was long and thick, flowing down like a

stream of darkness. His hair was thick, it reached his neck, the rest of

his body tried to come through, but he stopped, almost like something

was stopping him.

His golden eyes searched the battle field, until they landed on Percy.

He smiled, "Percy Jackson, after so long, we finally met."

The demigods were horrified, they were paralyzed. But Percy had seen

him before, he had faced him before. And back then, he wasn't even a

demigod.

Percy used his telepathic powers to push away the remaining monsters

to the side creating a pathway to the portal. He walked briskly, showing

no hesitation. He looked up and meet the titan's gaze.

"In our culture, when two leaders of opposing armies meet for the

first time, they show their true faces, not hiding behind helmets or

masks."

Percy chuckled, "I wasn't aware, sorry grandpa," he pressed the button

on his helmet causing it to pop open revealing Percy's face to the mad

Titan, "there, better?"

"Much," his head still the only thing that came out of the portal. He

smiled, "you show bravely when others do not. Your men look like

they are about to faint."

Percy looked back and smiled, "the only reason I can speak to you and

they can't is because this isn't the first time I spoke to you. I'm used to

your ugly mug, they aren't."

Kronos looked down, Percy was sure the taunt would have worked, but

it didn't. Instead the titan laughed, "ah hahah! Ture grandson, very

true. My form as it is is less than appealing. Why I couldn't even

get a date."

Percy didn't know why, but he chuckled, "yeah, not many chicks would

want to date a 3,000 year old man with anger issues."

"Are you kidding me? Have you see this body?!" Kronos laughed

hartley, causing everyone, including Hypnos to blink in confusion. Not

understanding what Percy was doing.

"What is he doing?" Julia asked Thalia in a whisper.

"I have no idea," Thalia whispered back.

"Is he actually having a conversation with the Titan of evil?" Rob asked

with his jaw wide open in disbelief.

"Any chance you try and not kill us?" Percy asked, "I mean, honestly,

it's kind of a cheap move killing people in their sleep."

"Oh? Well I suppose if you look at it that way it does seem cheap,"

Kronos laughed, "but I have come to far to simply turn back now."

"Hm, no, you haven't. All you would have to do is turn around and

leave, that's it, no mess, no fuss," Percy said with a shrug.

"Well for you maybe. Hyperion would kill me if I did that," the titan

said, that stupid smile still plastered on his face.

"And what if I killed Hyperion?" Percy asked.

And that's when Kronos's smile faltered. He looked down curiously

before his eyes went over the battlefield. He quickly spotted Hyperion's

sword that Rob was carrying and narrowed his eyes. Rob, the brave

son of Mars, let out a little squeak.

"I see...well I never liked him anyway," Kronos said with a casual

shrug. Though Percy could see the smile was becoming more forced.

"He was your brother, don't you care about anything?" Percy taunted.

"I did," Kronos admitted, "I care about power, I care about respect

and I care about getting back what's rightfully mine."

"The world?"

"Revenge."

"I see...and then what?"

"And then I rule, as was always my destiny."

"Over our dead bodies."

"My dear boy, that was always the plan," Cronus smirked as he

started to pull himself forward.

The portal started to shake once again as Hypnos ran to it's side

holding it together. "You need to be more careful!" the God warned as

Kronos pulled his body out as well.

'The portal can't handle bringing him through!' Percy realised, Hypnos

was keeping it stable, but he needed to have physical contact to do

that. Seeing his chance Percy charged at the minor God, Waverider

and Riptide coming straight down at the god's neck.

"NO!" Hypnos cried out as he clicked his fingers causing a shockwave

of pure energy to explode outwards.

Percy flew across the hall, but spun around mid air and flew right back

at Hypnos.

"Shit!" Hypnos cursed as he clicked his fingers again, this time flashing

away with the portal in hand. Percy's swords met nothing as he stood

where Hypnos was just moments ago. Percy sent out a wave of mana,

trying to figure what spell the god used, only for nothing to come up.

Percy cursed, "fucking Hades," he turned to the demigod army and

found that even the remaining titan soldiers had disappeared.

Percy dismissed the box and turned to his friends. "What happened?"

Jason asked as slowly everyone let their gaurd down.

"I don't know, but I think they must have teleported away," Percy

grumbled, "low tide," the phrase caused his armour to snap back into

his left hand gauntlet revealing Percy's school uniform underneath.

Slowly all the other demigods relaxed themselves, Percy's servants

turned into smoke as they went back into Percy's gem. Quickly the

'leaders' of the demigods gathered around Percy, Julia, Rob, Thalia

and Jason.

Chapter 698

"We need to set up a perimeter," Rob told him, "in case they try and

ambush us like we did to them."

"Maybe one on each side of the tunnel?" Thalia suggested, "after all

we don't know where Hypnos teleported them."

"Then we need to be sure, where's Morpheus?" Percy asked. And just

then said God came flying down and landed besides them.

"Hypnos did something he shouldn't have," the god grumbled, "there is

a layer before this world, just below this world. It's sort of like my own

version of the underworld where the nightmares go to rest. Any time

anyone has a nightmare it's because one of those monsters managed

to escape their prison and come up here inflicting the sleeping people.

One of my major duties is to make sure that doesn't happen."

"You mean those same nightmare monsters you used against me?"

Percy asked with a raised eyebrow.

Morpheus paused for a moment before replying, "when I summon them

they are under my control, but Hypnos doesn't posses the came

control. He will likely release them wild on the battlefield."

"Great, just great. So how many monsters are we talking here?" Percy

asked.

"How many people are there in the world?" came the gods reply.

"And Hypnos sent himself there? Is he crazy?!" Rob exclaimed.

"Yes, and desperate. It was quick thinking going after him Percy. He

can't hold the portal for long, especially with Kronos being the one

coming through, maybe...not, anyway one good thing came out of this,

we have time. Hypnos sealed himself in that realm, but you can be

sure he going to come back here, so we have some time until that

happens."

"How long?" Percy asked.

"Three, maybe four hours?" Morpheus guessed.

"Could you send us in there?" Percy asked, "we have him on the run,

send just a few of us in there and we can defeat Hypnos and close the

portal."

"No, I can't."

"Why not? Aren't you the master of this realm?!" Rob yelled angrily.

"I can open get you there, but if I do so then all those monsters will be

released. Hypnos' magic is different, he can travel freely, but my duty is

not to open breaches, but close them. So I would have to force it open,

which could cause permanent damage to the fabric of the dream

world."

"Then it's time to leave," Jason argued, "let's go right now, wake

everyone up and just leave this realm."

"No, we can't," Rob shot back, "this place is too important to lose."

"Rob's right Jason." Percy sighed, "imagine if Kronos could torture us

via dreams? We wouldn't' be able to sleep. Like it or not...we have no

choice. This place has become the first battle between us and the

Titans. We need to stand here and fight."

The others looked at each other horrified. They shared worried looks,

Percy couldn't blame them, after all he did just basically tell them they

had to fight Kronos himself.

"So what do we do now?" Thalia asked the question everyone was

dreading to have answered. They all looked too scared to say it, so

Percy knew he had to do it himself.

"We fight," he spoke up turning to the other gathered demigods, "I

know this isn't ideal, and this probably wasn't what you all wanted to

happen. But we have no choice, we need to stand our ground here and

now, because if we fail here we will not be safe from the Titan's even in

our sleep!"

The demigods looked at each other and murmured. Percy opened his

status and clicked on his title changing it to 'Leader';

Leader- allows the user to control his troops easily giving a +10 to

all stats for all subordinates.

Percy cleared his throat, "I said, are you with me?!"

The demigods yelled, "aye!"

"Good, get ready for round two everyone, we have some time to

prepare, but not much. You," Percy pointed at an Apollo camper he

vaguely remembered. He looked at his name, "Bart, get a few others

and make record of everyone who was injured or in critical condition, I'll

heal them all as soon as I can, got that?"

Bart nodded, "yes sir!" He quickly moved getting help from other greek

demigods along the way to survey their army.

Percy then turned to Morpheus, "we need more demigods. Since

Hypnos is out of the way can you revive all the demigods you put to

sleep?"

Morpheus nodded, "yes, I can do that."

"Good, do it," Percy turned to his close friends, "I'll go around and

gather everyone Morpheus releases and I'll bring them back here. But

there are going to be a lot of people here, especially from the Roman

side since I'm assuming Morpheus put their entire city to sleep," Percy

turned to the god who nodded, "right, then when I bring them back you

guys determine whether they can fight with us or not."

He turned to Julia and Rob, "do you think you guys can convince those

who have retired to come out of retirement?"

Julia and Rob shared a look. They whispered to each other in rapid

sentences of Latin before July nodded, "yes, we'll try. We'll remind

them of their duty to Rome, but I cannot promise you they will stay and

fight with us."

"That's fine, even a few warriors will be enough. Julia I'll leave you in

charge of that. Rob, I'll leave you in charge of getting the fighters ready,

you're the general, get them to line up and ready for anything."

Rob nodded, "right Percy."

"Got it," Julia replied.

Percy then turned to Thalia, "are you okay?"

The girl rolled her eyes, "this really isn't the time to be worrying about

your girlfriend Mr. Jackson."

"Yeah but that won't stop me from worrying," Percy said with a smirk.

"I'm fine, I recovered my mana easily enough," Thalia shrugged, "I

should be good."

"Right, then you and Jason get those who can use their divine mana

and make up your own squad. I want you to focus on attackers got

that? Find a Demetre kid? Use them for defense, but find an child of

Hephaestus that can control fire? Use him to burn yourself a path."

Thalia nodded, "find the magic users, bring them together. Any

reason?"

"You and Jason are both children of the prophecy, Kronos will most

likely try and target you first. Oh, that reminds me, if you find Bianca

and Nico in here somewhere get them too. So when Kronos does

attack I want you and the others to make him regret it."

Thalia smirked, "you got it fish face."

Percy smiled before turning to Morpheus, "we need weapons."

"I don't have any," Morpheus replied, "nor can I summon much."

Percy cursed, "we can't have an army without weapons. I armed these

people with the few I have and the few lucky ones that happened to fall

asleep with their weapons on hand. We need weapons."

"This is the worst part of being stuck in a dream world," Rob grumbled.

"Wait, what about using the world itself?" Julia suggested. Everyone

looked confused so she continued, "this world, this world is real right? I

mean sort of. Percy, can you use that tactile telekinetic thing to-"

"-To make it into a weapon!" Percy completed grinning. He turned to

Morpheus, "can I do that?"

"This world is a part of me, so I suppose with my permission you can,"

Morpheus shrugged.

"Good," Percy dropped down and placed both hands on the ground.

He closed his eyes and activated his tactile telekinesis, and suddenly

the world shifted out from underneath him.

Percy found himself looking at the world from a third person point of

view. He saw the entire world covered with vertical and horizontal lines,

like a blanket of mass. He quickly realised this was one of the

upgrades CHAOS must have given him and got to work.

Suddenly the tunnel started to rumble, everyone got alert, thinking it

was Kronos coming back for round 2. But just then the are of the tunnel

before them started to shake, as a field of swords came bursting out of

the ground handle first. They were dyed purple, similar to the colour of

the tunnel, the swords were formed out of the tunnel floor and when

they were fully completed the collapsed on the ground ringing out

loudly.

Chapter 699

Percy opened his eyes and got up, he wiped the sweat on his brow

and stood up looking at the sea of blades before them. He sighed, "I

should probably also make some shields huh?"

The others turned to him with open mouth. Only Thalia seemed

unfazed as she nodded adding, "maybe also a couple of spears?"

Olympus:

In the throne room of Olympus the entire Olympian council stood

present with the minor gods standing before Zeus, all twelve looking

nervous.

"So let me get this straight," Zeus grumbled, "you twelve created your

own council of gods and worked in opposition to us?!"

"No Lord Zeus, we did not," Eunomia, the leader of the minor gods

responded quietly, "we formed the council because we needed each

other's help. You 12 weren't bothered about us, or our children. We

have no choice or say in the affairs of our own lives, we needed to at

least be able to talk to each other."

"Why? So in order to conspire against us?!" Zeus roared.

"We didn't mean to-"

"And now because of you our children are in danger!" Zeus roared,

"every single demigod child of ours is trapped in their sleep thanks to

you people! Tell me why I shouldn't just destroy you right here and

now?!"

"Because it's not just your children," Eirene's calming voice cut through

Zeus' rampage. The goddess of peace sighed, "all our children are in

danger, but not from Morpheus."

"Then who?" Athena asked with narrowed eyes.

"We sent Percy in after Morpheus," Triton spoke up, "we took him to

Hypnos to get him into the dream world, but Hypnos betrayed us. He

betrayed all of us, he's now on the Titan's side."

"You sent Percy into the dream world? Alone?!" Poseidon roared,

"Triton I know you don't care for him, but he is your brother!"

"Which is exactly why I trusted him to do this father," Triton meet

Poseidon's eyes, "I believe in him, he said he would bring them back

and he will. I know it."

"Then why hasn't he?" Ares asked scoffing, "I mean if you have such

faith in your champion why come to us at all?"

"Because we believe Hypnos and Kronos are about to invade the

Dream world," Iris spoke up, "and even Percy won't be able to face

them all."

"If Kronos is invading the dream world first then was can follow,"

Athena informed them all, "the ancient rules allow it."

"Yes but how?" Hermes grumbled, "we need a god of sleep to get into

the dream world. And last I checked we only have two, one went rogue

and the other switched sides. So how do we help out the kids?"

"I can help with that," Hecate said stepping into the light, "I have been

working on a spell to send people into the dreamworld every since

Morpheus started talking about betraying Olympus."

"Ah-ha!" Zeus exclaimed.

"Oh do shut up dear," Hera scrolled making the king of Gods grumble.

"Anyway, the spell hasn't been perfected, I can't send people into the

dreamworld, but I can send things," Hecate smiled, "including mana."

"So what are you suggesting?" Poseidon asked curiously, "that we

send a portion of our powers through your portal and hope it reaches

the demigods?"

"Yes, that is the only card available to us right now so I suggest we

take it," Eunomia nodded.

"You come here and tell us that you created your own council behind

our backs. And then you tell us one of your own went mad and

imprisoned out children in their own bodies, and now you're telling us

to send our powers into a portal?" Zeus growled, "how do we know this

isn't some sort of trick? That you and Morpheus have planned this all

along, force us to feed you our power?"

"For the love of all that is good Zeus! We don't have time for this!" Iris

hissed, "I swear on the Styx we don't have any other intention than to

help save our children!"

The sky flashed with lighting as thunder rumbled through the throne

room. The gods looked at each other before turning to Zeus who

looked displeased.

Sighing Poseidon got up and shrunk down standing before Hecate,

"what do I need to do?"

"Poseidon! Stop this at once!" Zeus yelled.

"No brother, I will not," Poseidon dismissed the God looking at Hecate,

"can I send my blessings as well? Or just items?"

"You can send mana, spells, anything you want," Hecate nodded.

"Then maybe you should send this," Triton spoke up as he summoned

the Pegasus staff bringing it before the Olympians who gasped as it

glowed sea green in the presence of Poseidon.

"Triton! Where did you find this?!" Poseidon asked as he transformed

into his roman form. His beard looked more haggard, more unruly and

violent. He touched the staff and smiled, "still so beautiful."

"Percy found it father," Triton informed him.

"Of course he did," Ares grumbled in the back.

"He intended on using it in the dreamworld, but when Hypnos betrayed

us I needed something to defend ourselves, so I had to take it from his

grasp."

"That boy, never stops surprising me," Poseidon chuckled. He took the

staff, it's green light exploded brightly dyeing the entire throne room in

sea green, he turned to Hecate, "can I send him this?"

"Yes lord Poseidon," the goddess of magic nodded.

"Good, then prepare your spell quickly. It's best we don't waste time."

"Poseidon what are you doing?!" Zeus cried out, "as your king I order

you stop this at once!"

"And as you subject brother I respectfully decline," Poseidon spat, "this

is our children we are talking about Zeus! Not just Percy!

Thalia...Jason, they are stuck there as well. And you hesitate to help?!"

"Poseidon-"

"Enough!" Poseidon snapped, "I will hear no more, I have made up my

mind."

"As have I," Athena spoke as she got up and summoned a large text

book into her hands, "Hecate, I will send this as my gift. Can you insure

it ends up in the hands of Annabeth and no one else?"

"Yes Lady Athena," Hecate bowed.

"This is out right rebellion!" Zeus cried out.

"I'm sorry father, but they are right," Apollo said as he summoned a

single arrow, "we aren't going to sit back and just watch. Our children

need our help."

Slowly one by one the Olympians stepped down from their chairs and

brought forth a gift for their children. Ares has a box while Aphrodite

seemed to have something similar. They didn't mention what it was,

only that it was important.

Chapter 700

Zeus' face grew redder and redder as more Olympians got down, until

it was only he and Hera sitting on their thrones. "Is that how this is?!

Fine! Damn you all to Hades then!" he summoned his master bolt with

one hand and raised it high. The other Olympians got ready to defend

themselves when Hera cried out.

"Stop!" she said standing before her husband.

"Move aside woman! I'll end this rebellion before it begins!" Zeus

growled, his eyes red with rage.

"No Zeus, I will no," Hera stood firm, "you are being unreasonable

Zeus. Listen to yourself. You would rather have your children die than

swallow your pride and accept the help from the minor Gods?"

"Do you not see what they have done Hera?! Their stupid council is the

reason we are in this mess in the first place! They did this!"

"And they are trying to fix it! Are we so free of sin we can hold such a

high ground over them? Are we so perfect? No, we are not. We aren't

what the mortal see us, perfect in every way. We are flawed Zeus, you

are flawed, as am I. If we were mortal we would be punished in the

fields of torture when we died. But, out of everything we have ever

accomplished, out of everything we have ever done, these

demigods...they just might be the one good thing in this world that we

have to be proud off. Not our strength or our wealth. It's out children

Zeus...remember that."

Zeus started into Hera's eyes, into the eyes of a goddess that had no

demigod children to call her own, and yet stood up in defence of them.

She was the goddess of family, and so she fought for her family.

Zeus' anger settled down, he dismissed his master bolt and got off his

chair. He snapped his fingers and summoned the Roman Eagle. It

shined in a golden light before the gods, mixing with the green from

Neptune's own staff.

Zeus shifted into Jupiter, looking more proper, more brave. He turned

to Hecate, "what do I have to do?"

Dreamworld:

After Percy made another set of shields and spears for the demigod

army he set about healing everyone that got injured. Luckily no one

had died, the titan army had their plates full with Percy and their

servants to do any real damage to the demigods. And even when a

demigod got hit another would just come up and take their place,

protecting them from further harm.

Percy walked up to Morpheus and gave him the signal to wake up all

the demigods he had trapped inside his realm. Suddenly pods among

pods over them started to burst open spitting people out.

Percy had to run all over this world gathering the people by hand.

There were a few familiar faces in the crowd, but he didn't really have

time to stop and chat. Percy picked up a couple of college aged kids, a

few full grown adults and even old grandpas.

But the weird part was the children. Some Percy realised was Roman,

but the other...well they didn't look or feel roman to him. Why? Because

they had a greek godly parent listed over their title. And what's more

Percy didn't recognize them at all. They weren't from camp, so who

were they?

Percy however didn't comment on this, focused on just bringing them

all to the ever growing army of demigods, intent on letting Julia and her

people work on sorting the demigod's out.

But while Percy ran and did his job he couldn't help thinking, Morpheus

said he brought every single demigod in the world into this place, so

did that mean these kids were from other parts of the world?

Percy knew now that other religions were real, but none of the kids

belong to another patheon, they were all Greek, so did that mean they

were all unclaimed? If so they this was a great opportunity, he needed

to know where these kids lived in real life and bring them to camp

asap!

As Percy dropped off his 200th or so demigod Morpheus called for him,

"Percy, you can stop now."

"What? Why?" Percy asked, "there's still a lot of people to go."

"Yes, I know, let me help you."

"What? How?"

"Before I was using my mana to force all the demigods into a slumber,

but now that they are free. There is less stress on my and I regained a

significant portion of my powers. Let me help."

Percy agreed, and with a simple snap of his fingers Morpheus brought

every single demigod out there right before them. Percy smiled first, he

didn't have to do work, but the groaned realising just how many

demigods there were.

"The Gods seriously have to learn how to use a condom," Percy

groaned as he walked up to Julia's team that were slowly processing

people, "we just got a huge shipment of demigods. You guys are going

to need help."

"What are you talking about?" Julia asked, Percy pointed behind her

causing the daughter of Venus to turn and pause. She sighed, "fucking

greek."

"Hey don't blame me, Morpheus was the one who did this!"

Julia growled, everyone looked confused and everything was just a

disorganized mess. And she did not like that, not one bit. "These are

too many people. We address them all one by one. We won't be ready

for Kronos by this rate, even with three hours time to prepare."

"Do you have any ideas?" Percy asked.

"You still good at giving loud speeches?" Julia suggested.

Percy grinned, "got it." He walked up to the gathered demigods, still

confused as to what was going on, and took off into the sky. He cleared

his throat, "may I have your attention please." Everyone were

murmuring, looking around confused and dazed. Percy rolled his eyes,

"OYE! LOOK HERE!"

Everyone stopped muttering and looked up. A few gasped seeing a

person floating in the middle of the air, and even fewer looked like they

recognized him.

"Alright, I'm going to make this real simple, anyone who knows what a

demigod is please raise your hand!"

The people looked surprised, while a few confused. A majority of them

raised their hand making Percy sigh in relief.

"Good, that's good. Now listen, to those who know what a demigod is,

we are currently stuck in the realm of Morpheus! That's the god of

dreams!"

"You mean Somnus?!" a roman demigod from the crowd asked.

"Ah," he looked down at Julia who shrugged, "I think so? Look that's

not important! The fact is we are trapped here! Do you understand?!"

"I'm sorry what?" a young girl near the front asked, "what are you

talking about."

"Did you raise your hand first?" Percy asked.

"Ah, no."

"Right, well just wait, we'll explain it to you later, but for now, everyone

who does know everything about gods and Olympus listen up! We are

trapped in this world and right now Kronos, or Saturn if you prefer is

coming for us! We need to fighting him off here and now! "

They all exploded into whispers and hushed tones, fear clouding their

minds as panic began to set in.

"What?!"

"We need to get out of here!" People began panicking. They started

looking around hurriedly for ways to leave, finding none.

"Listen!" Percy's voice rang out, "I know you're scared, I know you just

want to run away and hide. But we don't have that luxury! We are

demigods, children of the gods themselves and if we run now we will

suffer for it in the long run! Kronos will come after us, if we fal here then

he obtains the land of dreams and we won't be safe, even in our sleep!

We have no choice! We must stay and fight!"

"Who the hell are you to tell us what to do?!" a blonde demigod yelled

out, "you're not even Roman!" The others, who were looking calmed

down before, now started agreeing with the blonde idiot, crying out in

protest.
