Curse of the Triblood

Chapter 11

Aphrodite POV

I flashed myself towards a beach and saw a giant wall of ice and the entire city up in smoke and nearly destroyed. I didn't look up as I was doing my make-up and checking for imperfections. I knew that Ares got in a fight with Percy and with any luck, Percy would have beaten him already.

"Hi, Percy." I was saying as I lowered my mirror. When I looked at him, I saw what state he was in and nearly screamed. "What happened?" I demanded.

"Ares stabbed Percy when he was distracted by the tsunami," the satyr told me.

"Of course, he did," I said with a deathly tone while breaking the compact mirror in my hand. I was smiling the entire time but both he satyr and the demigoddess could see that inside iwas plotting a murder. "When I get my hands on him I'm going to disintegrate him molecule by molecule." Without even realizing it my form began to glow and I slowly turned into my true self.

The Athena spawn and the satyr looked at me and tried to calm me down. When I realized what I was doing I stopped myself. Since I am a primordial my true form would have destroyed everything around me instantly since I am far more powerful than the other deities.

"Lady Aphrodite," the Athena spawn called for me. "Percy gave me the ability to ask for his favor. Can you save him and take us to Olympus before Poseidon and Zeus go to war with each other?"

I was thinking about fulfilling the request. I really wanted to save Percy; I could never stomach seeing him die before me. But I knew that if I saved him, he would just die worst in front of me later. I could practically feel Thanatos coming to claim him right now but every time he escapes death when it's this prominent, he remembers, he remembers all his past and his death is far worse later on.

"I-I.." I didn't know what to say.

"Lady Aphrodite, you promised you would be in his debt. He needs the debt fulfilled right now." the girl argued.

I stood there and after a few seconds walked over to him. I held his hand and I could feel him slipping away. I closed my eyes and made my choice. A choice I might soon later regret. I healed his injury and saw the metallic pink blood return into the wound. While this was happening, I looked at the other two in attendance.

"I will bring him with me back to Olympus. You two will return to camp and tell the horse what has happened. Give me the bolt. I promise this quest will be as good as done when you do," I told them. The two looked at each other wondering what to do.

"Lady Aphrodite, with all, do respect we have to finish this quest with Percy," the satyr said, trying to control himself from my aura.

"That was not a request. I was giving you an order. I might want to save Percy here but you two are not getting the same treatment." I told them coldly.

The two looked at each other once more. They probably didn't expect me to act like that. I might have been a bit much at the moment but in honesty, I wanted to kill Ares and I don't care if they are his friends, I want to destroy something.

"Of course, lady Aphrodite." the Athena spawn told me.

"When you get there, you are to tell my daughter Silena that her father will remember everything by the end of the day. Is that clear?" I asked. They nodded their heads and handed me a backpack with the bolt inside. I then waved my hand, and they were gone.

I put Percy's head resting on my lap. I waved my hand and Percy looked brand new, fresh clothes, clean, bathed, new cologne. He looked like he was going to model for a magazine cover. I could hear his heartbeat and started to cry.
