Disclaimer: I do NOT own Percy Jackson, nor Heroes of Olympus, Rick Riordan does

Frank's POV:

"That Percy fellow is quite something isn't he?" Fleecy said as she made us some tea and had Hazel and I sit down

"First day in the legion... and he defeated Lupa. And the fact that he is the guardian of Diana..." Hazel said and I thought out about it

"He should be dead" I muttered and Hazel shook her head

"If he should be dead, then so should I. Frank, there is someone who is finally able to relate to me even if it's on a different scale" She said and I nodded slightly

"Is he really taken by Diana?" Fleecy asked and we nodded

"Saw her kiss him in the middle of the entire senate" I said and Fleecy's expression fell slightly

"Don't worry there are other fish in the sea" I said awkwardly causing Fleecy to giggle

"Calling a son of Neptune a fish" Fleecy said and I sighed as Percy walked out and he laughs an evil laugh

"What happened?" I ask and Percy smiles deviously

"Oh nothing just gained some blackmail is all" He says and I look at him with a raised eyebrow

"Aren't guardians supposed to be noble and all that?" I ask and he scoffs

"Nah, we blackmail each other for the hell of it most of the time. Hell, even Chaos gets blackmailed. Like the time..." He started but his voice stopped and Percy looked at the roof and glared causing me to give a confused expression suddenly his voice came back "Gods of Olympus, Chaos really is spying on me" He says and I sigh

"Well... what did you tell Reyna?" I ask and I see a glint of mischievousness in his eyes which made me wonder what exactly he saw

Percy's POV (A few minutes earlier):

"PERCY!!! YOU CAN'T BE DOING THIS!!!!" Reyna yelled as she covered herself up by sinking into a bath

Next to her was Skyla, daughter of Chaos, who was sinking lower as well, a massive blush on her face. I crossed my arms and smirked.

"Skyla, does your father know about this?" I ask and she shakes her head causing me to smile more "Oh I am SO using this as blackmail"

"You dare blackmail a princess?" She demanded weakly and I laugh

"I've blackmailed Chaos before, so, yes, I would blackmail you" I declare before my face turns serious "There is an enemy force marching your way, should be there in a few days' time" I report and Reyna nods "Also, it is being led by the giant of Polybotes, Bane of Neptune" I say and Reyna nods as I notice Skyla move a bit closer "Alright, I'll leave you two be" I say as I turn around and make to walk out but stop "Make sure to use protection" I say and walk out as Iris laughs and gets me the recording

(Now)

"I told her to use protection" I say simply as Iris comes out with a thin square with a rainbow outline

"Here you go Percy, one recording" Iris said as I take the square and put it in my pocket

'WOOO! BLACKMAIL!!' Instinct yelled and Iota laughed

"Thank you Iris, we should be on our way now" I say and Iris nods

"Take care Percy" Iris said and I smiled as Frank, Hazel and I walk out only to be surrounded by three basilisks and I growl

"I forgot about those..." I mutter as Frank takes his spear out and I see it dip to the ground and I recognize the tip "Dragon's tooth..."

'Dragon teeth create spartoi' Iota informed

'Spartoi are un-killable until they are either killed by a child of Hades or they complete their task' Instinct says as Frank's spear hits the ground and the tooth breaks off

Suddenly a skeleton hand pops up and soon a Spartus climbs out. The skeleton then just looks at Frank for orders.

"Kill the Basilisks" Frank says and the skeleton turns around before taking out two of his ribs and launches forward

I watch as the skeleton rips apart the last snake I start walking towards the Pax.

'We should head to the Amazons now' Iota said and I nodded mentally as Iris came out and tossed me a bag

"Here, a gift" she said and I caught the tie-dye bag and stared at it in horror

'The color doesn't match!' Instinct yelled mentally

'THE HORROR!!!!' Iota screamed

I shivered as I slung it on and continued walking toward the Pax with Hazel and Frank following.

After a few minutes of walking, we arrived at the Pax and I climbed in along with Frank and Hazel. We then pulled out and I willed the water to propel us farther north.

"Percy, what are you going to do when we find Thanatos?" Hazel asks and I think for a moment

"He is an old friend, he didn't want to take my soul last time and I doubt he could do it now" I say thoughtfully "Besides, he takes his debts seriously, so if we save him he might give us something, or do a favor for us" I finished as a large shark surfaced and Hazel and Frank freaked out whereas I smiled

'Young one!' The megalodon said and I laughed

"Hey! How are you doing old friend?" I ask

'Just got away from the little ones' he said and my smile widened

"NICE! Were going to have more Megalodons soon! I'm guessing dad is providing protection?" I respond

'Yes, but I wanted to ask if you needed any help' He asked and I nod

"Yeah, we need to find the Amazon's base" I say and he swims in front of us and I grab a rope from in the Pax and throw it onto his massive dorsal fin

I then leaned back and closed my eyes, letting the sweet embrace of sleep overtake me.

(Dream)

I stabbed Riptide through the skull of a cyclops before ripping it out and turning around to see Artemis being pulled back.

"NO!" I yelled as I moonlit stepped over to her and killed the hellhound that grabbed onto her leg

I lifted her up and carried her to a door that was glowing. I set her down and she looked at me with tears in her eyes.

"Go! I'll cover you" I say and she shakes her head as I turn around and knock an arrow out of the air before grabbing a throwing knife and chucking it into an empousa's head "Artemis! GO!" I yell and I open the doors before pushing her through "I love you, I will find another way, but the others need you" I say as I close the doors and chant something I don't quite understand then I turn around and feel a spear pierce my shoulder as I drop to the ground and look up to see a man with a swirling face laugh

"The great warrior falls, welcome to eternal torment" The man says as I feel a dagger shoved into my stomach and I cry out in pain

(Reality)

I sat straight up and took a deep breath. I held my hand up to my face to see it trembling and I took a shaky breath. I looked around and noticed that I was still in the Pax and we were docked. I also noticed that I was alone and that even Instinct and Iota were gone. I shake my head and stand up and make sure my gear is still on.

"Instinct and Iota must have gone ahead with Frank and Hazel while I was out..." I muttered to myself as I climbed out of the Pax and walked into the city following the energy trail that Instinct and Iota left

As I walked I saw a faint flash of red on top of a building. I sigh as I make my way over and start climbing the building using my hookblade and cloaking myself. Once I get to the top, I notice the red flash was an unhealthily thin red harpy. I uncloaked as I opened my bag and took out a plastic bag of what looked like beef jerky I then slid it over to the harpy who finally noticed me.

"Who are you?" It asked and I slowly dropped to a knee

"I am Percy Jackson, a friend, what's your name?" I say as she snatches the jerky and quickly eats it

"Ella..." She said and I smile as I hear three sets of footsteps come up the nearby stairwell

Just then, Frank, Hazel, and Instinct/Iota appear and they spot me. Instinct and Iota vanished and I felt them join me and Frank and Hazel stare at me for a minute before turning to Ella.

'So, why did you guys leave?' I ask mentally

'You were saying some weird things, we tried to join the dream but we couldn't, so when we made landfall, we headed out with Hazel and Frank and found an old blind seer who works for Gaea, We made a deal with him and now were trying to think of a way to trick the seer who's name I couldn't bother remembering' Iota said and I snickered

'The ultimate insult, the memory part of the person not bothering to remember a name' I say and Instinct chuckles

'Damn right it is' Iota said and I laughed mentally

"Ella, is there anyway we can trick him?" Hazel asked kindly and Ella nodded

"Gambling, he cannot foresee the outcome of a gamble" Ella said before rambling off and instinct snapped his fingers mentally

'I saw a pair of bottles that looked exactly alike, we could use those as a means to trick him' Instinct said and I smirked

"I'll go talk to the old seer, you two make friends with Ella" I say as I run straight for the edge of the building and leap off with stalled front-flip

I landed on the ground and smirked as the concrete cracked underneath me. I stand up and start walking towards the old seer who seemed to be eating as much as he could while wearing a bath robe and pink bunny slippers. I shivered at the image that was burned into my mind but focused on the task at hand.

"So one of you has returned" he said and I rolled my eyes "Have you brought the harpy?" he asked and I shook my head

"Nah, my friends are dealing with that, I just wanted to see if you had a beer or two maybe play a drinking game" I offered and he smiled slightly as he reached over and grabbed two beers and handed me one

I grabbed the bottle and used my hookbaldes hook to open the bottle before taking a swig.

"So, tell me about yourself, like what you like to do and what your hobbies are" I start and he hums in agreement

"Well, until recently I was cursed by the gods so I couldn't eat, but ever since my patron gave me another life, things have been great" he says as he takes a drink and I smirk "My hobbies? Well apart from chasing those harpies around, I do like to gamble, being a seer means that any and all events are known to me locations are known and everything else. But when gambling all is shrouded, it makes life interesting" he said and I nodded

"How about we do a bit of a gamble, I know that you have two identical bottles right there, so why don't we have a drink"

The seer smiled and nodded as he grabbed the two clay bottles and put them on the table.

"Gorgon's blood, one from the left arm and one from the right. One heals, the other kills painfully" he said and I chuckled

"Hmm a painful death, just what I always wanted!" I say sarcastically as he switches them around

"We each take one and drink the whole bottle, whoever dies losses. What should be the prize?" he mused

"Your eyesight would come back and if I win, the location of Thanatos" I say and he nods as he grabs a piece of paper and quickly scribbles something down before folding it up and putting it on the table then moved a hand over the bottles and as his hand hovered over the right bottle the ground shook causing him to smile as he chose the right one

I picked up the other and I saw a pepper off to the side.

'Well, we have to play the part eh?' Instinct said and I grabbed the pepper and uncorked the bottle before we both took a swig

I willed the liquid in mine to not flow down and I quickly at the pepper which instantly set my mouth on fire. I put the bottle down and corked it silently as I fell to the ground and held my burning throat.

'OH GODS WHAT WAS THAT!!!!' Instinct yelled and Iota started laughing uncontrollably

'You idiots, you just ate a Carolina Reaper!' Iota said and I started cursing as Hazel and Frank ran up as the seer screamed in pain and started to dissolve

"Percy are you alright?" Hazel asked and I struggled to get up and looked around the table for milk when I finally found a jar I lunged for it and grabbed it

I opened the jar and started chugging the milk. Once the milk was gone, my mouth still felt on fire and I cursed.

"Holy Chaos and his pretty pink frilly my little pony underwear" I cursed and a portal appeared and Chaos walked out while casting a dome around us

"PERCY! I TOLD YOU... what's wrong with him?" Chaos said as the seeds took hold and I clawed at my throat

"FOR THE LOVE OF ORDER!!! WHO WOULD CREATE SUCH A FREAKING PEPPER!!!!" I cursed more and Chaos fell over laughing causing Frank and Hazel to stare at the childishness of the 'almighty creator'

After a few minutes Chaos left and gave me a large gallon of milk which I started drinking. Once the milk was gone and the heat subsided I took a raspy breath and coughed.

"Never again!" I declared as I grabbed the clay bottle and slung my bowpack off and put the container in the pack before slinging it back on "Let's find Amazon" I muttered as I grabbed the folded note and trudged away with Hazel and Frank holding in their laughter "It's not funny! That thing hurt!" I complained which caused them to break out into a fit of laughter

After a while I found a building with the words 'Amazon' on the side and following my gut feeling (instinct) I walked in and saw a girl at the desk.

"Hello, I am l--"I started when the girl vaulted over the desk and raced toward me with incredible speed

I pulled a pistol off my chest and pointed it at her as he came to a halt.

"As I was saying, I am looking for one, queen Hylla, and I am sure she would not appreciate you hurting an old friend" I say and I notice she looked me over constantly

"Very well, come along boy" she said bitterly obviously not happy about being held at gunpoint and she lead Hazel, Frank, and me through the lobby and down an elevator "How do you know Queen Hylla?"

"I killed someone who kidnapped her a while back" I say simply as the elevator doors open and then the girl leads us through a large packaging area that has men in orange jumpers and collars which causes me to tighten my grip on my pistol as the girl glances back at me with a sly smirk

She whipped around and attempted to grab my wrist but I pulled back and dropped to the ground and swept her legs out from under her. She rolled away and I moonlit stepped into her personal space, spun her around and extended my hidden blade and put it at her neck.

"Try that again, and I will not hesitate to kill you" I say coldly "I am not just some male, I am a highly trained individual who can, and will, destroy this whole place with a simple move" I whisper into her ear and she nods as I push her forward and hold the pistol up and she continues to lead us

After a few minutes we entered a room that had a large chair and I saw a familiar face stand up and walk over with her arms outstretched. I holstered my pistol and embraced my old friend.

"Percy! How are you doing!" Hylla asked and I smiled

"I got my memories back and I gained a new companion, his name is Iota" I said and Hylla nods before spotting my arsenal

"Do you NEED any more weapons?" Hylla asked and I smirked

"Hell yeah!"

A/N: Yeah, this one has to be the worst in terms of flowing. I will more than likely come back and edit it at some point
