AN: OKAY SCHEDULED UPDATES ARE NOT WORKING OUT, I JUST CAN'T HANDLE PLANNIGN AND SCHEDULES AND ALL THAT SCHIST, SO I'LL BE UPDATING IRREGULARLY FROM NOW ON, sorry again, but I need to do this, It's just how I am. ANYWAY, THE CONTINUATION OF THE FIGHT, ENJOYYYYYYYYYY! (ps: Bianca won the poll not Zoe, I just checked it, so I'm gonna throw in some Perianca eventually) 

PERCY POV

As I walked towards Jason, Riptide in hand, he got his gladius ready and charged. Expected. But then I got hit with a bajillion needles from the side, and saw that Hazel, Frank and the rest of the people from bellow (at least the ones who wanted to fight me, the hunters had gone to enjoy the show along with most of the demigods that were brought back). Frank was a gigantic porcupine, the source of the needles. I simply smirked to myself, then did something I didn't even expect myself to do. I lit Riptide on fire, and charged Jason like a freight train.

ARTEMIS POV

My eyes went wide when riptide lit up with a blue flame. At first I thought it was an illusion, but clearly it wasn't. "Since when does Riptide light on fire? It's stealing my thunder!" cried an indignant Leo Valdez. Percy just smirked, "I have a domain over fire Leo, I share it with Lady Hestia and Lord Hephaestus, but whilst they control the useful flames like the hearth and the forge, I control the destructive portion of flames" he said, slightly amused.

Leo was speechless for a second, quite a feat , then retorted "Well Aquaman, it's about time you felt the heat of this situation!" Percy groaned at this, then he concentrated his gaze at Jason for a second, sending him flying back, into Thalia and a very surprised Zoe who was trying to get behind Thalia then surprise Percy. Then he changed his course and looked at Leo , Valdez gulped, which was merited of course, given who had just set his sights on him. Then Percy ran and jumped at Leo, which was when the background music started.

PERCY POV

As I was landing, I heard something, music.

Du du du du-du du du
Du du du du du-du du du 

I landed, and got up, which was when the song's lyrics started ,and I saw Apollo winking at me from the bleachers. I sighed, but played along anyway, noticing he was recording this. Who was I to refuse looking freaking badass in front of cameras?

Some legends are told

I smirked at this line and charged, practically everything in my life was a myth or a legend and of course they were told, from person to person.

Some turn to dust or to gold

At this moment, Hazel and Bianca not to be left out from being theatrical raised their arms, causing gold and dust to fly at me. With the former smacking into me and the latter clouding my vision

But you will remember me
Remember me, for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take

At this point I realised that those two had indeed made a mistake, underestimating my powers, I lit myself and the air around me on fire, making it so hot the gold got vaporised along with the dust, and all the oxygen exploded from the combustion (AN:woah there perce, those r some big words)

We'll go down in history 
Remember me for centuries
Hey-ya, a-hey, hey-ya
Remember me for centuries

Me being me, smirked at this line and charged a Bianca, knocked her down like I had in oru first capture the flag match and tripped Hazel so that she fell down. I then set my sights on Frank and Leo, who both had determined looks on, but Leo was giving me a grin, whilst Frank was straight up studying me, it was creepy.

Mummified my teenage dreams

My only words to this were "bruh"

No, it's nothing wrong with me

More bruhhhh, for this thing to stop being so relatable.

The song kept going, and eventually came to these lines.

And I can't stop 'til the whole world knows my name
'Cause I was only born inside my dreams
Until you die for me, as long as there's a light, my shadow's over you
'Cause I-I am the opposite of amnesia (oof )
And you're a cherry blossom
You're about to bloom
You look so pretty, but you're gone so soon

My spine tingled at these lines, I kept fighting like a madman on the outside, trying to fend off Leo and Frank-the-dragon, who were doing a combined flamethrower against me, whilst I was just shooting fire out of my palms at them. I looked at Artemis, in the bleachers, I knew then that I had to tell her what I myself had been denying, that I had a crush on the moon goddess. Then I got back to the fight, and just charged through the flames, smashing into Frank, who took Leo with him, as they slid across the ice.

Du du du du-du du du

Du du du du du-du du du
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me, for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
Hey-ya, a-hey, hey-ya
Remember me for centuries

I thought of all my quests, and how Chiron had assured me, that I would be remembered for centuries, no matter what. I think this was Apollo's way of reminding me that, not all was lost just because of Annabeth. There was still my whole immortal life ahead of me. And to be honest, I was over the heart-break.

We've been here forever
And here's the frozen proof
I could scream forever
We are the poisoned youth

At these lines, I looked around at my friends who all wore the same expression on their faces. Recognition. They related to those lines just as much as I did. I couldn't help but grin at that.

Du du du du-du du du
Du du du du du-du du du
Du du du du-du du du
Du du du du du-du du du

Those lines once again, sent shivers down my spine, suddenly I knew what to do. I charged up a golden spear in both my hands. Leo, Jason, Thalia, Nico, Bianca, Hazel and Dragon-Frank got ready to throw all they had at me, with Zoe, Annabeth and Piper ready to charge me right after all the attacks hit. I closed my eyes and brought my hands together just as the music died down and came back to life with a bang. Me releasing my own bang, a shockwave rather, and knocking everyone and their attacks away from zero ground, aka me.

Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me, for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
Hey-ya, a-hey, hey-ya
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries

At this point, everyone was down for good, but they all got up tiredly and yielded. I just kept smirking, I looked to the bleachers to see everyone applauding for us all, Apollo giving me a thumbs up, and Artemis giving me genuine smile. I swear my heart did flip-flops right then. I met her eyes and gave her a wink. Her face turned gold. I still didn't understand why though. I felt someone come stand next to me, and saw Zoe there. Great, another girl I may or may not like. GODSDAMMIT I SWEAR APHRODITE IS GOING TO HAVE SOME SERIOUS HELL TO PAY! I turned to her and said, "Well, what do you think of my fighting skills now, am I worthy?" She giggled at that and said, "Indeed Lord Perseus, that was quiet worthy indeed".

ZOE POV

The way he scrunched his nose up the moment I called him Lord, it made my legs turn to goo and my heart do jumping jacks. I swear to Aphrodite, if she's playing ticks on me I will personally stick a million arrows in her- but those thoughts could come later, right now I was too busy admiring the face in front of mine to notice another hunter looking at our conversation, a smile on her face. 

AN: I know I know, a long chapter from me was not expected.  And even though Bianca has way higher votes now, at the time I was planning out the story and ended the poll, Zoe had won, so you will get some Perianca, but it'll mainly be a competition between Artemis and Zoe. They will need to go slightly ooc, but like,duh.THANKS FOR READING, WE'RE ALMOST AT 10K SO THANKS FOR THAT TOO, I LOVE Y'ALL!
