Chapter 1
Author's Note
I am publishing the first chapter on the occasion of my country's (India) Independence Day. It's our 70th anniversary of freedom from the British.... :D I'm so proud to be an Indian.
Narrators POV
Percy was in chained in front of the thrones of the Olympians. He looked at them with shock, betrayal and anger in his eyes. Zeus gazed at him with sadness," Why did you do it? Why did you kill Jeanine Matthews Daughter of Athena ?"(Anyone gets the reference?)
" I didn't do it." He said.
" All the evidence points to you. You were seen by a witness stabbing her in the back and we have seen it for ourselves as well. I'm sorry it has to be this way."Poseidon said in a heavy voice gazing at his pride and joy with tear-filled eyes.
"All those in favour of banishment to Tartarus." All the gods looked at him sadly but everyone raised their hands even Hestia.
Something broke inside him right that moment. The crystal ball which had shattered in Tartarus, shattered again but this time he knew it won't smooth over like last time.
Zeus opened a portal to Tartarus. Percy gave them all a cold smile and said something that chilled them right to the bone. " I have saved you not once but twice, I risked everything for you but you throw me away to a place where no one dares to venture. Heed my words Olympians when I come back I will kill every single one of you slowly and torturously. I will aid your enemies and when the time comes I won't be there to fight for your pathetic lives. I swear on River Styx that I will bring down the Olympians " With these words, he broke his chains and disappeared in a flash of light.
" Where did he go?"
" How did he just vanish?"
" Did he go through the Portal?"
"How did he break the chains?"
Zeus closed the portal. It appeared that Perseus Jackson had just vanished into thin air.
Percy's POV
After I broke my chains I had planned on vapour travelling away but suddenly darkness encloses on me.
I appeared in what can only be called a throne room. It was huge, bigger than two football stadiums combined. The architecture was exquisite. The roof was domed and had skylights so that I could see the night sky with the galaxies and... Wait. What? I swear it was morning and how can I see the galaxies. Where am I? I'm such a Seaweed Brain for not noticing until now. Seaweed Brain, the nickname sent a pang in my heart. I pushed the thought to the back of my mind and looked around.
There were two thrones one was obsidian black, it was beautifully carved with elegant designs. It spoke of power and so did the woman who sat on it. She was beautiful. She had long dark glossy beautiful hair with what seemed to be actual stars in her hair like tiny hair clips which burst in tiny supernovas, big black cat-like eyes, upturned nose, full lips and slender arms.
The second throne exactly the same as the first one except it was blinding white. The man who occupied it was as powerful as the woman. He had white hair that was set in a spiked fashion, he had white eyes pupil, iris everything and he had a chiselled face which would make girls drool.
Great just what I need, A lady obsessed with black and a man obsessed with white. Did I mention they radiated more power than all the Olympians, Titans, Gaea and Tartarus combined?
The woman spoke in a lilting and melodious voice," Welcome Perseus. We are your parents."
