Chapter 7

Thanks for all the reviews.

Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson

Percy sat before the Primordial god, "Let's face facts Perseus..." "I'd appreciate if you called me Percy not Perseus, generally when somebody calls me Perseus they are about to try to kill me" Tartarus smirked "... As you wish Percy, you are strong, that is a fact, at full power in your own palace you could probably fight a Primordial on even footing, until you grew tired and they destroyed you but anyway, the point I was intending to make was that you aren't at full power and we are in my domain not yours..."

"... If I wished to I could kill you right now quite easily, but I don't want to kill you, most of the Primordials disliked Gaia, after she and Ouranos split apart she changed, she grew angry at the Olympians and forgot that her main priority is her domain not her children. So even though you fought one of the Primordial council the others do not dislike you, in fact I wouldn't be surprised if Chronos or Pontus visited you, wanting to teach you secrets of their domain known only to them"

Percy was surprised, he honestly thought he was going to be killed, and he knew he wouldn't die permanently, but he still didn't want to know what death felt like, "if you don't mind me asking Tartarus..." Tartarus glared slightly, "we are not on the same power level Percy, I am quite a few ranks higher than you, hence why you refer to me as Lord Tartarus..." Percy realised he had addressed a being who was thought by everyone to be pure evil as if they were friends, he mental berated himself "... of course Lord Tartarus, my question however was why your golem creature things were guarding Kronos?"

Tartarus's smirk returned to his face "My pit-born weren't guarding Kronos per se, they had orders not to kill any being that attempted to rescue Mrs O'Leary, what better way for me to show you where Kronos was without him knowing, let him think I was helping him when really all I was doing was alerting you to where he was."

Percy knew to be careful, he considered this to when he was a demi-god and he had to always be careful of what he said in front of the gods, there was no point angering a being that was far stronger and more powerful than you "well I appreciate the help but may I ask one or two more questions?" Tartarus nodded once "How did Kronos remove the five monsters from here when our fight started?" Tartarus's eyes seemed to go dim, Percy recognised it as when a god was recollecting a memory, "I let him remove your companions from my domain, and I thought it was safer if they were outside the pit then if they were mock fighting my creations"

Percy almost smiled, he thought Kronos had some form of control over Tartarus at first, that wasn't a thought he wanted to have, Percy knew that Gaia had managed to open the doors of death but that was simply because Tartarus owed her a favour and he was annoyed at the gods, Percy was glad he hadn't done anything to annoy Tartarus, he didn't want such a powerful being as an enemy "Are there any unique monsters down here that are reforming that I can ask to swear loyalty to me?" Tartarus tilted his head slightly pondering Percy's question, "There are a few creatures down here that may join you, however if they do firstly you have to swear on all five rivers of the underworld and The Fates to never use them against a Primordial unless they attack you first."

Percy smiled, the oath was simple, easy to keep and he would get some new allies to help protect his palace "I Perseus Jackson swear on all the rivers of the underworld and The fates to never use any monster allies I gain from inside Tartarus against any Primordial unless they attack me or my allies first" thunder boomed even in the pit and a golden string appeared around a bright sea green string appeared around Percy's wrist, a note fluttered down and landed in his hand "This is your life string, since you are immortal we no longer have a use for it, since you are the first mortal to be made into a major immortal you can have your life string, it is virtually indestructible.
