10. Babysitting 5 Year Olds

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters!

*Thor*

Loki followed me out to the Empire State Building which was were Olympus was located.

I had heard about Ambrosia and Nectar before. The food of the gods. This lead me to thinking about Percy's wish. He wanted to be cut off from the rest of the gods.... Would the gods take this as a sign of Percy wanting to join the family again? I hoped not. Percy didn't want that.

"Here we are." I said to Loki as we walked forwards.
"600th floor please." Loki said to the desk man.
"There is no 600th floor, go away!" the man replied rudely. In retaliation to this, Loki transformed into his Asgardian armour.
"Really? Now let us up, you puny Mortal!" Loki stood there looking determined. I didn't know why, Percy and Loki hadn't even had a full convocation with each other yet. Why did he care so much?
"Of course sir, sorry sir!" The desk man said rapidly and handed us a golden key.

We made our way to the lift and put the key in.

A few minutes later, we arrived. I had been to Olympus before with my father and therefore knew my way around. We headed towards the throne room, and found the council arguing.

"Brother! We must go and help him! If Tartarus has taken a special interest in him..." Poseidon said sadly.
"I agree with you Poseidon, but he doesn't want to see us!" Zeus replied. Loki cleared his throat next to me.
"Who are you!" Zeus bellowed loudly.
"Lord Zeus, I am Thor Odinson and this is my brother here, Loki. We have come to you in a time of need. Percy is fatally ill. He needs some Ambrosia and Nectar quickly!" I finished.
"P...p...p...Percy's ill?" Poseidon question.
"Apollo quickly, go with Thor and Loki. If there is to be another battle, we need him alive and well." Zeus commanded. Loki growled.
"That should not be your only reason to help him! Percy does not wish to just fight all your battles for you, hence why he made his wish!" Loki looked like he was in complete outrage.
"Calm now brother. This is not our fight. Percy can discuss this when he is well enough. Let's go, now." I said, turning my back to the council. I saw Apollo follow us.

"Come here, I'll teleport us. Where is he?" Apollo questioned.
"Stark Tower" I replied as my brother was now in a strop.

The next minute, we were there. Percy was awake again.
"Hey guys, I didn't mean for you to actually bring Apollo down with you! I'm not that sick!" Percy said once he saw Apollo.
"Hey! Who wouldn't want to see me?" Apollo said with a cheeky grin. "And Perce, sorry to break it to you... but you look like you're about to die. In fact I don't know how your still al-" Apollo stopped when he saw the gold blood. "When?" He asked kindly, talking about becoming an immortal. Apparently, the gods didn't know.
"A day after the war." Percy said, his spirits immediately dropping.
"I'm truly sorry... Eat this." Apollo said gently handing Percy a cube of Ambrosia. The effects were almost instant. Percy's cheeks glowed with colour, his eyes relit after being extinguished.
"Thanks" Percy muttered as the cut in his side began to close.

There were a few minutes of silence until Percy said
"Would you mind getting the other gods to come down here please Apollo, and Thor can you lock the door so no one interrupts is please. You two can stay though." He said nodding his head at Loki and I. I walked and locked the door.

About a minute later, 14 figures appeared, the Olympian council and Hades and Hestia.

*Percy*

I sighed as they arrived. As annoying as they all were, I had missed a few of them.
"Percy..." I found my dad's face in the crowed. I gently swung my feet over the side of the bed and let my father come and hug me. It was hard to think that it had only been 2 weeks since I had seen him.

"Hi" I croaked. "I need to tell you all something, I thought you would already know but from Apollo's reaction... I guess you don't." I took a breath in.

"The day of Annabeth's funeral, I went to visit her grave. It was early in the morning of the next day by the time I chose to leave. I went to cross the road and was hit by a car." I saw Loki's eyebrows rise as he did not know about this, the gods just stayed quiet. "As I fell and laid on the road and waited for death, instead the Fates came to me and... and..." I took a deep breath "They made me immortal" I said. My eyes had started to brim over with tears.

I could see Zeus' mouth moving up and down, but with no sound coming out. It was finally Hestia that broke the silence.
"I'm sorry Percy." She said softly. The rest of the gods nodded their heads in agreement.
"Your immortal?" My father spoke. I simply nodded.
"That's good isn't it! You can make sure that Sally and Paul live ok! You can look after them properly!" Aphrodite exclaimed. I shook my head. Surprisingly, it was Hades who spoke.
"Um, actually, that won't be possible." Hades looked at me sadly. The other gods looked confused.
"Why?" Aphrodite said, her eye brows closing together.
"They um... they are... they're dead." I spat out. Poseidon and Aphrodite looked shocked and gasped.
"When did this happen?"I could hear the rage and sadness blending together in my fathers voice.
"I got back from the war and found them dead with a message from Tartarus." A small tear escape out the side of my eye, which my father brush away for me.

Then there was a interrupting knock on the door.
"Hey! Let us in!" Said a voice I recognised as Tonys. I sighed.
"You might as well let them in, we need to talk about the war." I directed at Loki. He nodded and undid the lock, cause 5 people, who must have been leaning in the door, to fall.

I chuckled and helped them up.

"Ok, so, Tartarus is planning on rising soon. I'm not sure when but it will be within the next two months." The gods murmured in agreement. "I don't think we should let the other Demigods fight." I went on to say. With this statement, there was a number of protests.

The volume in the room got louder and louder. I looked at Zeus and he yelled
"Quiet!" for me.
"Thank you, as I was saying, I don't think we should let the other demigods fight because most of them are too young and have already lost enough. Secondly, I'm the one that Tartarus wants. If I just hand myself over, there would be no war." The avengers looked like they wanted to start arguing, even Loki!
"But as the Avengers will not let me do that... I don't want anyone younger than me fighting." I finished. Just as the gods were about to start complaining I said "Nope! No other Demigods! If any other demigod apart from Thor, Loki and I step onto the battle field, I'm handing myself over."

The gods didn't look happy but murmured in agreement. I had a plan and no one could know about it or they would try and stop me. I would go and visit camp, one last time before putting the plan into place.

"Fine" The gods and Avengers said.
"Good. Now, in the morning, The avengers and I will come up to Olympus to talk more. Deal?" I said in my commanders voice.
"Fine" They all said again, and the gods flashed out.

It was like babysitting 5 years olds!
