Percy Jackson and the Return of an Ancient Enemy

The Final Strike

Percy's POV

The three of us charged, weapons ready and everything. Jason morphed his sword into a lightning bolt, and his full appearance showed. Lighting crackled around him so deadly even Zeus was stunned.

A black shadow swept through the grounds, enveloping Nico in it. A second later he emerged with his pure, deadly form. An aura of fear and terror surrounding him. His helmet in his head and his sword in his grasp he looked even more deadly than Hades.

I walked backward into the sea. A huge wave rose and swallowed me in it. A moment later I broke surface with a mighty trident in my grip instead of Riptide. The water responded in my power and started swirling all around me.

"Let's slap this primordial back into the abyss!" Nico yelled.

Ouranos lunged his hand into the sky and a rain of stars came pouring down, forming themselves into a new sword and shield. Mist followed the stars and covered Ouranos's decapitated arm, recovering it fully. He grabbed his new crafted sword and shield, preparing himself for a fight.

Jason threw his lightning bolt like a javelin which Ouranos deflected with his shield. Nico shadow traveled behind him and stabbed him in the back. Ouranos deflected it and blocked Jason's next attack with his shield.

I stood there in the water gathering my powers. The sea wind blew with rage. Waves crashed violently and earthquakes started trembling Half Blood Hill. A hurricane formed deep in the ocean coming nearer and nearer towards the fight.

Jason morphed his sword back and started sparring with Ouranos as Nico sent waves of terror in Ouranos's direction.

"Percy!! Get your butt down here and help us out!" Nico yelled.

I stood still knee deep inside the water as the sounds of the hurricane grew nearer. Soon everybody was looking at the massive hurricane about to reach Half Blood Hill. It overlapped me and eventually I was in the middle of the hurricane controlling it.

I concentrated all my power on one single attack. I released the entire hurricane with one deafening clap aimed only at Ouranos which knocked him out of his metal locks, hurtling him backwards as his head crashed to a pine tree.

"Aargh!" Ouranos groaned as the ground crept up his feet and hands, locking him once again.

We walked towards him with our weapons ready to finish him off. I grabbed Kronos's scythe and stopped at Ouranos's side.

"How did you get back? You were supposed to stay in the sky forever!" Jason said.

"Vengeance. That's what kept me going. Though I was all chopped up and weak, I was never dead. The Greeks all thought I was but really I was being repaired little by little. The sky is my domain, that's why after Kronos chopped me up with that cursed scythe I was transported back there. I waited patiently to destroy the descendants of my wrecked children. I watched as you slayed my sons, knew when you were traveling with one of my hundred handed children, saw the fight you had with my wife. Then I knew it was time to take revenge. Gaia shall recognize my power along with my arrogant sons. They dare to chop me, I will destroy their descendants, the gods and demigods!" screamed Ouranos.

"An old myth proven wrong," Jason recited, "and a force that is too strong."

"You want vengeance Ouranos? I want one too. Your sons killed my friends, nobody messes with my family," I said as I raised the scythe and brought it down.

I chopped up Ouranos with the scythe as Jason and Nico followed my lead and started slicing with their swords.

Finally we stepped back and gathered our powers, every last inch of them. The water responded its master, swirling around me. Fury spiked my veins as a massive earthquake shook from the soles of my foot.

Thunder boomed from above as lightning struck the ground surrounding Jason with uncountable volts. The wind grew fierce while it surrounded Jason lifting him up.

Black shadows filled the grounds. Terror and fear was felt all over Half Blood Hill. All of it centered on one person, Nico. The shadows raised him up as he spread terror all over the place.

"Now!" I screamed.

Jason sent lightning down which struck Ouranos, its energy scorching the grounds at ten feet radius.

Nico sent a wave of terror and fear making Ouranos so frantic he managed to get his right hand free and started choking himself. The primordial god's eyes were pure black and bloodshot as the terror creeped into his mind.

I let the water levitate me until I reached enough height. I sent another hurricane at Ouranos so huge the ground cracked and he sank three feet inside it. I leapt from five feet above ground and landed feet first causing a huge earthquake to occur. Everybody at Half Blood Hill trembled and shook by the might of the earthquake. Right where Ouranos was, I made the ground open up and swallowed Ouranos inside.

He clunged on to the edge of the newly made pit where he screamed, "No! Not the earth!"

I marched up to him and said, "You owe your wife a delightful dinner after centuries of leaving her."

I raised Riptide and stabbed the ground between Ouranos's hands, making it crack and fall into the abyss with Ouranos behind it.
