see you never
I look at Chaos, hoping he'd get the message "this is my son-" " I thought your children were Gaea and Uranus" Zeus says cutting my father off "as I was about to say before I was rudely interupted, my adopted son, Omega" Chaos says calmly but I am not so calm "next time do not cut my father off or I will not be this calm" I say with enough venom to make even Hades and Ares flinch. I smirk proudly and keep my eyes trained on the gods until they recover "why are you wearing a cloak?" Athena asks, I look at her with vengefull eyes "ah always observant and curious, not always a good combination. It might be your downfall" I say with an evil smile
Chaos shoots me a look of warning but I can see pride in his eyes and a trace of a smile on his lips "I am sorry about my son but as I sayd he is my adopted son, he used to live on earth so he wears a cloak to hide his identity. Oh I almost forgot, he is the third most powerful being in the universe and has no love for earth or Olympians so if you anger him he will not hesitate to destroy the planet and you he says and turns to Order "I have adopted the boy aswell, he is now 19 years old in total but he was turned immortal at the age of 16" she tells them. I scrunch my eyebrows in confusion "3 years? But it's been 300" I ask, really confused now "Chaos years work differently sweety, every 100 years in the void is 1 year on earth" she explains to me, she looks back at the Olympians with disgust. Suddenly Poseidon gets up "wait 3 years? Have you seen a boy named Percy Jackson?" he asks.
I want to scream and shout and yell 'why do you care?!' but keep it contained "I saw him once, he was sad, betrayed even when we got to him, we offered him a position in the army but he died" I state making the hope in his eyes dim and vanish "did he mention anything about us?" he asks, wow he just won't give will he? "yes, he said he forgives some people but others he will never be able to forgive. He also asked that if we ever met you to tell you to carry out his last wishes" I say and he motions for us to continue "All demigods must be claimed by the age of 13, Calypso and Promethius be freed and Sally Jackson, Paul- his step-father and his baby brother or sister's souls to be put in Elisium" I say, stating the wishes that I have
All their faces turn grim besides Lady Hestia's, Hades' and Apallo's, they keep looking at me, their looks giving me a clear message 'we'll talk later' and I gulp. They couldn't have figured it could they? I look at them, giving them my best confused face when I notice that they can't see my face "alright, thank you for your help" Pseidon says "he did have one last question though" I say, I shouldn't do this it's a huge risk but i have the opportunity "what is it?" he asks but there is much less happiness and energy in his voice
I take a deep breath "he asked why you ignored him when Adam came along?" I ask, all the gods frown with uncertainty "I don't know, I miss him. He was a great hero, he must have achieved Elisium" he says, his voice pained. It feels like someone stabbed me and twisted the sword through my heart without killing me but my face stays neutral "Of course he must have. From what I heard from him he deserved it" I say but my voice sounds small, hurt and broken, like it was when I was betrayed. I blink traitorous tears away and clear my throat hoping to keep the tears at bay "ok well now we will be departing to Camp Half Blood" I say, my voice sounding normal-ish again.
Chaos nods and flicks his wrist, creating a portal in 0.5 seconds, I take a deep breath "you will appear in the dining pavilion. You always had a flair for dramatic entries" Chaos tells me with a smirk to my side " may we talk to Omega in private please?" Hades asks from behind me. I turn to see Hades, Hestia and Apallo standing together "of course" Chaos says, I walk to them and drag them way to the side then slam up a wall of Chaos so no-one can see or hear what is happening. I turn to the 3 in question to see them all looking at me, waiting "what?" I ask obliviously, trying to make a delay
The gods roll their eyes "come on Percy, I know it's you the pithos fluttered when you got near" Hestia says "Plus I could tell you were lying at least a bit when you talked about your death, god of truth here" Apallo says "And I searched for Percy in the underworld, so did Nico and the Furies" Hades says. I sigh defeatedly and pull my hood off "fine you caught me" I confessed, they all rushed forward and hugged me a strange feeling, hestia's warm happy feeling, Apallo's burning feeling and Hades cold feeling but I don't care
I back away "we swear upon the river Styx not to tell anyone your true identity" they said simeltaniously and I smile, pulling back the walls of Chaos and heading to the portal. Chaos gives me a look like 'they figured it out' along with Order, I still have trouble calling them mom and dad due to trust issues, I'm afraid that once I trust them they'll betray me like everyone else in my life, I know it's a problem but right now I don't care I'm to scared to face it. I give the 3 a small smile, it takes all my willpower but when I do it the other gods seem to be shocked and the 3 smile back widely
I step through the portal, the familliar feeling enveloping me as I race to camp half blood at the speed of Chaos, a million times faster than light until I find myself standing on the Poseidon table, standing in Adam's food with one foot and on his hand with the other. I try to hide and swallow a laugh but fail misserably and find myself dubbling over in laughter...
