Godly Avengers: Percy Jackson

13: Aftermath

Thor's eyes glistened with tears, seeing Loki fall in to void was more than enough to crack his shell and heart.

He pleaded so well to his brother, but the said person was far gone from anger and hatred, and somehow Thor felt like he is responsible fort it.

He can't imagine the pain he had caused on Loki, Millennia of taunts and constant insults he hurtled to his poor brother. It also add up that his father dissed Loki for being just a mage, not a warrior.

The celebration leave a hollow space on his heart, they might as well called loser's by all the lost they gather, during the destructive fiasco. Also his heart also hurts for his lover, Jane.

Now that the bifrost was destroyed, there's no ways to meet his lovely Jane. His heart clenched painfully at thought, fear crawled in to his chest. What if I'm too late?

"Thor" Odin said gruffly, bringing the god of thunder out of his musings.

Their talk was quite lengthy, with his father telling him that he should descended to the throne and be a king, and with him denying the position reasoning that he had so much to learn.

"You had grown" Odin said thoughtfully, eyeing Thor with so much respect and appreciation.

Thor wished his father at least look at Loki that way, maybe if that happened things could've gone better.

Percy smiled sheepishly, grasping his smiling son affectionately.

"Percy! Aion!- You! How dare you, he could've died!" Annabeth exclaimed angrily, before snatching her son from Percy's clasp.

The former demigod rolled his eyes, "We just visit Atlantis" He grumbled.

"Visit? A visit?! You kidnap our son for two weeks!" The daughter of Athena shouted, earning a wince and fearful glances from the dryads and satyrs, whom choose to eavesdrop.

"Mom, The palace was great and-" Aion rambled, but before he can divert the attention his mother screeched like a banshee. "Mom?"

Aion eyed his mom worriedly, but before he can brush it off as typical over acting, his mother sobbed uncontrollably.

"Mom- I - I'm sorry- I don't know that- that you will react this way" Aion stuttered through his words, as he hide his head on the crook of his mother's neck.

"Annabeth, I didn't mean to do this. I loved Aion, I'm really sorry for making you this worried" Percy said apologetically, before placing his hands on the demigoddess's shoulder.

Annabeth eyed her warily, before slapping his hands away from his shoulders. "You can't just show up after five years, then act like this! You don't know how sick worried I am, I thought Aion was eaten on the woods!"

Percy winced inwardly cursing himself, How can he be so irresponsible?

"I'm really sorry" He repeated, as his former lover eye her warily. Annabeth look like a cornered animal, and Percy doesn't like that he had caused it. "I really do, I won't gonna do that again"

"Good, I can handle so much, after all the pain you caused me" Annabeth said, looking directly at his eyes. How he had loved those stormy gray eyes before, but now all he see was anguished and anger.

"I'll leave you now" Percy said, before disappearing in to a mist of water.

Annabeth hugged her son tightly, fearing that if she let go, she will loss her little one forever. "Don't go missing on me Aion, understood?"

"Sorry" The ten year old said, smiling sheepishly.

Apollo's head was spinning, having a headache should be impossible for a divine deity like him, but being berated by the king of god's can create an exceptions.

Thor's power display really affects the situation of every divine pantheon in the world, and of course Zeus found a way to blame Apollo for things he cannot controlled.

"If you just interfere, things could have gone better!" Zeus bellowed angrily, air cackles with such fiery and power, that Apollo felt threatened.

"You always tell us gods, not to interfere!" Apollo replied, faux defiance clear on his melodic voice.

"I suggest you watch your tone" Zeus warned, hands tightening on his armrest. "Your negligence creates a threat on our world, clearly your fond relations with Perseus is a hindrance"

Apollo swears his heart leaped out, his father's words was veiled threat, and he can't help but to fear and cower. Zeus wasn't exactly a father to anyone, and Apollo knows that despite being a favorite, if he misstepped or miscalculated, he and Percy will be the receiving end of  Zeus's wrath.

"Of course, We will do good but I expect that my siblings and other Olympians was working too, besides I have the most domains yet I'm dealing with this mess"
Apollo scoffed, pretending that his father wasn't threatening and scary at all.

Zeus eyed him suspiciously, before vanishing in to a spike of lightning and thunder, completely setting his hair in to frizzy madness. "Too much for being favorite son" Apollo said, glaring daggers at his father's throne.
