Best Day Ever
'I've always been here,by your side'.
I felt a sudden air on my face,not the chilly kind,but the kind that made me feel soothed,relaxed. I closed my eyes for a second,and standing before me was the man of my dreams,blocking a huge strike,before killing of the Minoutar.
Percy caught the horn before it hit the ground. 'I must have the biggest horn collection like,ever'.
To hear that voice,made my heart melt. I jumped on Percy and planted a kiss on his lips. 'Mmmm(didn't know how to do it)'.
Nico looked at me,eyebrow raised. I grinned cheekily at him. He gave me the disapproval look,before grinning.
I jumped of Percy,before he got into warrior mode and slashed me like Hercules. 'CHARGE,MY ARMY' he bellowed.
End looked scared before yelling.
'Didn't see that coming. Whoops. Retreat!!' He yelled like a little girl before running of like a marathon runner.
We all laughed at him. I finally smiled. It had been the happiest moment ever for us.
Through the hugging crowds,I saw Percy looking at me,smiling widely. I ran,and at the same time,so did Percy. We ran at each other,fingers interwined. We stared at each other for a moment before kissing.
Everybody,including the campers,looked at us and hooted. I had never felt so alive.....
DESTRUCTION'S POV
I slammed my foot on the table,which,sadly,couldn't bear it and broke into a million pieces. 'AAAGGHH' I bellowed.
It's all because of that stupid son on Neptune,or was it Poseidon? Agh,because of his stupidity,I can't even think.
My servant knelt in front of me.
'M-m-master,t-they have failed. E-end has retreated'.
I yelled at him. 'You idiot,I know that!'.
I took a deep breath and sat down on my throne. 'Hmm. Then there is only one choice. Prepare,young Perseus,for this time you will not survive. This ultimate monster kills all'. I smiled beneath my hood. Ooh,now this is going to be interesting.......
PERCY'S POV
After the war games. Yeah,I called it games,because I didn't even get to fight. Now that's horrible. We all walked into the Big House,for a talk.
As I walked up the steps,my sorrow increased with every step. After all,the scars hadn't healed inside me. Even though,I had Bianca, Annabeth had been a big part of my life.
Now that I knew it was all schemed by someone,my heart had healed quite a lot. And I had a guess of who that person was. The only person who would be able to confirm my guesses was Chaos.
But at first there was the matter at hand. I stepped inside the same small room laid out with a ping pong table and beyond expired,crackers and cheez whiz
Well,to hell with it. I picked some up and ate them.
I sat at the head of the table. Nico came in behind me and took the seat next to me. I leaned back.
'So!' I clapped my hands together 'Monster invasion,huge boss fight. What's new?'
'Well,scouts have news that there is a large army collecting in Epirus,known as the House of Hades. After an expedition there by......one of the demigods we set up scouts there and lately they say that there has been lots of activity there. The scouts say that a very large army is targeting Manhattan'
Nico leaned forward,frowning. 'How do they know which area the monsters are targeting?'
'Well monsters like to gossip among themselves' he said.
I rolled my eyes. 'Gossip. Chatter. I hate those words,Chaos uses them way too much. Let's go with tittle-tattle shall we?'
Iroas laughed. Annabeth did the same. Huh,I guess she was able to laugh. I felt happy for her. Even Chiron managed a faint,brief smile.
'As you wish. Well as I said there has been a lot of.....um,tittle-tattle among monsters and there are roughly a hundred thousand monsters set to target the Empire State Building' Chiron shuddered as if the idea of so many monsters terrified him.
'Well I am powerful but I'm only a demigod as most of you might have already figured out. My power has boundaries unlike Chaos and well,Destruction'
At the sound of that name,it seemed as if the air in the room grew cold and the lights began to dim. Well,he wasn't called Destruction for nothing. He was as powerful as Chaos himself.
I had a sinking suspicion that Destruction might be more powerful than Chaos,considering the fact that Chaos had been using his powers to keep the world intact,whereas Destruction had bided his time,waiting for revenge.
And my experiences had been proof that revenge had fueled a lot of people to do crazy things.
My expressions must have said a lot because Chiron looked at me with confusion.
'What is it my lord?'
I smiled a little under my hood. 'No need for that,Chiron. I'm a demigod. I'm no god. No titan. And not a lord. Most of my victories are only possible with the help of my friends. I'm nothing if I'm by myself. Call me Satan'
A nostalgic expression made its way onto Chiron's face.
'What is it?' I asked,out of curiosity.
As if pulled out of a trance,Chiron shaked his head.
'Nothing. You just remind of another demigod. You resemble him in a lot of ways'
I instantly knew who he was thinking about. He was thinking about me.
Well done,genius. You had to talk. Shut up before you give yourself away.
Well my plan had worked though. I alerted Chiron's attention towards something different.
I didn't want to tell him about my suspicions about Destruction being more powerful than Chaos. His and the other demigods courage was already stretched to the limit,knowing that this battle was worse than the battle with Gaia.
If I told them that Destruction was really powerful than they would probably give up all hope of winning and if they were to win they needed a lot of courage and wits.
I shaked my head. 'Well if they plan on going after the Empire State Building than they're not coming to party,or to go sightseeing. They're coming after the gods. And they're probably gonna win unless we-'
Leo interrupted. 'How will they defeat the gods?'
'Well,young tinkerer,there will be giants,titans as well as monstrous creatures in army. The gods are powerful but not invincible'
Leo nodded as if he understood,but seemed a little agitated that I had called him 'young tinkerer'. God,I loved being able to do this to my old friends.
'Yeah as I was saying,the army will target the gods,the Greek versions. That means that they'll most likely attack the Roman forms of them too. By Roman gods,I mean the roman demigods'
Everybody nodded as if understanding my logic. Wow,I was getting smarter.
'I'll get in contact with an old friend and...well leave it to me. I'll do all I can for you Chiron'
Chiron was really surprised by my statement because I made a big ass entrance by saying I was evil and whatnot.
Can't a guy have a flair for the dramatics?
'Well I must take my leave,Chiron. I have to assemble my squad and talk them over the plan. I will see you later then'.
I stood up and walked quickly out of the Big House. Nico followed close behind.
Well,now time for a proper reunion with the squad.
ETHAN'S POV
I sat in the infirmary,between Luke's and Jacob's beds. Luke had tried to go out to fight but he had fallen to the floor and lost consciousness. That idiot.
But what I didn't know was who was this Jacob guy? He had come to fight and then got gutted by End.
I felt bad for the guy but who was he?
I heard laughter outside inew the living room. I got up and went outside. Percy stood there,with one arm around Bianca,who was looking a bit red in the face.
Everybody was laughing. And after such a long and grim week,it was deserved.
After sitting and talking for a long time,laughing and chowing down some chinese food,Percy's expression turned grim.
'What is it?' I asked him.
'Well,I don't know how to tell you but....I have a suspicion that Destruction might be stronger than Chaos' he said.
Beckendorf frowned. 'How is that possible,Percy? Wasn't it Chaos who defeated Destruction in the olden times?'
'Yes,Beckendorf,but...I don't know how to explain it. Either it's the fact that the blood of both Chaos and Destruction runs in my veins...or the fact that Chaos has spent all of his time and power making sure the universe remains intact,whereas Destruction has spent his time waiting for revenge'
It sounded ridiculous but something in my mind knew that Percy might be right.
Soon after that,the crowd subsided. Percy followed me into the infirmary.
'What the hell?! I'm gone for a week and already you have two people in the infirmary?!' He yelled.
'Yeah.......'
'Is Luke alright?' He asked me.
'Yeah,he's fine. The idiot tried to get up and fight when he didn't have any strength. I suspect he's sleeping.
Percy's expression cleared up. Then,he looked at the other person and frowned. 'Who's this?'
'I dunno. He was sent by Chaos to help us in the war'
'Oh..well I'll ask Chaos about it. When he decides to show up!!' He yelled at the sky.
Nothing. Maybe Chaos was busy.. But he had never abandoned us in time of need.
I looked at Jacob. Maybe he was part of Chaos' plan......
BIANCA'S POV
I sat on the couch next to Silena and sighed.
'You alright?' She asked.
I smiled. 'Yeah,I'm fine. A bit tired'. But mostly happy that Percy's back.
I kept that part to myself because I knew that Silena would make fun of her. I was fine with that but it was a new relationship and she was already under pressure by this huge war.
I mean,Percy is the strongest demigod alive,but he's not a god. Even he has limits. And too much pressure on his body could kill him.
'Hey,what's up? You look distant'. Silena looked worried.
I smiled a little. 'It's fine. It's just that..that Jacob guy put his life in danger because of me. I don't even know Jim, but he saved me from End'
Before I knew it,tears started rolling from my eyes. Jacob could die and it would all be my fault.
Silena came closer to me and hugged me,trying to console me.
'It's not your fault' she whispered,as if she had read my thoughts.
'It's fine,Silena. I got it from here'.
I looked up to see who it was. Percy stood there,gazing down at me with a smile on his face.
Silena got up and walked up the stairs. Probably to go and sleep in her room. They had spent a lot of sleepless nights ever since Percy had...well died. I don't know how to explain it in a more understandable way.
I was shaken out of my thoughts when Percy sat down next to me. I hid my face from him so he wouldn't see me crying,which was foolish from me,considering he already knew I was crying.
'Come on,Bianca. Why are you crying?'. Percy arms wrapped around me and he scooted closer to me.
I rested my head on his chest and sobbed.
Percy held me close and didn't say a word until I stopped sobbing.
'Bianca,I promise you,I will not let that Jacob dude die. I can't let him die without thanking him for saving you. Do you trust me?'
I nodded vigorously.
'Then please don't cry. I hate it when you cry. This might be a new relationship but we've been friends for so long before that I just can't stand you,or any other member of my team cry or get hurt'.
I wiped my tears on the sleeves of my shirt and smiled a weak smile at Percy.
He smiled broadly. 'There we go. That's way better'. He leaned in and kissed me. I embraced the moment and kissed him back.
Percy stood up. He offered me his hand. 'Come on. I wanna take you someplace'
I obliged and took his hand,standing up.
'Where are we going?' I asked out of pure curiosity.
'You'll know soon enough' was his answer.
Percy gripped my shoulder and teleported.
Part of Chaos' powers given to us was teleportation. But it took its toll on out eyes when we did it without being prepared to do it.
I blinked the spots out from my eyes as soon as we reached our destination.
I looked at the beautiful sunset taking place. The air smelled fresh,the sea looked beautiful as ever. The sand looked like gold under the light.
The beach. Percy's favourite place.
Percy smiled. 'How is it?'
'It's beautiful' I breathed.
I looked at the sunset as if the first time I was seeing it. It just seemed perfect. Being here with Percy.
Percy guided me closer towards the water where a blanket had been set down,with a picnic basket on top.
I looked at Percy. 'Hey you didn't have to do this. I should've been the one-'
My sentence was cut short as Percy kissed me. He smelled of the ocean. His lips tasted salty.
'Anything for you love' he said.
I grew red in the face. He laughed.
We sat down on the blanket. Percy pulled out two sandwiches from the basket.
'I figured you must be hungry. I haven't seen you eat ever since I've been here'
I didn't realize how hungry I was until I started eating the sandwich. I wolfed it down and before I knew it,I was on my second sandwich.
Percy laughed. He lay down on the blanket and gestured for me to join him. I rested my head on his chest.
We spent the rest of the night talking and laughing about our previous experiences on Planet Chaos,without any monsters interrupting us. It seemed as if even the monsters thought we deserved a break.
This was the best day ever........
