Percy POV

I then proceeded to keel over with laughter until my ribs were aching and my cheekbones were sore at the shock on everyone's faces as the doors had gone flying off into the corners. Oooooppppppssss.............

"Anyway moving on from that completely normal event that just happened" I try to resume

"Completely normal!!!!!!" "Broooooo you just booted that door harder than well everything" I could hear Apollo and Hermes 

"Anyway like I said I have an idea."

"In the final battle I overload my power causing myself to die and take out Tartarus and absolutely everything in the vicinity all you need to do is contain the power release so that nobody innocent gets harmed" I state.

"NO" The amount of force behind the majority of the gods shouting back was actually surprising. 

That's surprising to say the least as I thought they would use the opportunity to get rid of me. Then I look up and see their looks and many look hurt and upset but the worst is Artemis with her eyes looking to be brimming with tears. Do some of the gods actually like me? Does Artemis like me?? Dammm this makes things a whole lot more complicated like I was totally down for the whole sacrifice thing.

An iris message appears of Thalia in front of Artemis

"Milady there is an attack at camp half blood and we need help with some of the titans"

"We will be right there"

In a flash I have ran and leapt off Olympus again.

"HE DID IT AGAIN" 

I smirk and spread my wings. Flapped them together and burst forward.

As I arrived over the camp it was kinda a big shit hole there was monsters surging against a slowly dwindling force of campers. 

Leo on Festus just got sent spiralling out of control and crashing into the earth. 

So naturally I looked for the biggest enemy there and well flew straight into him. 

It was Hyperion my favourite maple tree... Well i guess he isn't a tree now so my least favourite fire being. 

"SUPRISE" 

I drew my swords and started to dance round. Hacking. Slashing. But most of all just causing complete havoc. It's the simple things in life that you have to learn to appreciate. Blue food, family, fish friends, being fucking awesome.

Anyway, I went along my business. Hyperion I'd sliced his legs to shreds so he could barely stand. Atlas had a spear through his arm. Krios had a sword in his leg. Kronos had several daggers embedded in him. To my great annoyance a mystical, deep rich purple circle appeared round them and instantly healed them all. YAY!! 

"Guys where does the ... you know purple thingy come from?? Can I get one??" I ask

Confusion sweeps across their faces like a tidal wave. 

"Get one!! Puny mortal this is not something you just get." Kronos shouted 

"Yeah, well fuck you" 

I charge straight into Atlas, pray to chaos in my mind to open a portal, throw him through said portal, follow him through and push him under the sky yet again, freeing whoever was under there. I hop through the portal to be greeted by Krios's left hand to my face. 

I hit the floor, rolled back and saw an absolute bloodbath. Monsters everywhere, blood everywhere, dead demigods. 


Mustering a portion of my remaining energy, I teleport all of the remaining survivors and bodies into the camps borders. All the gods then appear out of nowhere and try to push through the barrier. 

I briefly look behind me... I see many people tearing up. 

Dam I guess they do care a bit. My heart completely breaks though when I see Artemis though. The tears dropping down her cheek just shatters my heart into a million pieces. 

I turn away and face the army.

I wipe the blood pouring out of my nose and spit out of my mouth. 

I start to muster all of my remaining energy, I can feely myself getting weaker by the second.

I charge at Kronos and fly kick him in the chest and attempt to roll away but not before his scythe impales deep into my abdomen. 

The pain is excruciating.

I stagger back and with a quick glace i can see tears streaming down everyone's face. 

I smile. 

Then I spread my wings and launch myself  high above the enemy and drop. 

I then release all of the energy I have been building up in a huge explosion.

Artemis's POV

After being trapped in camp half blood all we could do is watch and I was trying so hard to break through. 

We all watched in utter horror as Percy flung himself into the centre of the army . This bright light infinitely brighter than Apollo's palace. Forcing everyone to look away. Then We fall through the barrier. The army is gone, destroyed in the explosion. 

I sprint as fast as i can to the top of a huge crater and see in the middle Percy. So pale Hades would be jealous. I slide down to him.

Percy POV

I could hear my breathing raspy, my vision was blurred and dark spots clouded it. I could feel a pool of my own blood forming around me. I felt tears dropping onto me and then I could hear someone crying. 

My vision cleared up and I could see Artemis. 

"I'm sorry" I blurt out

She holds my head and kisses my forehead.

"Arty before I go I want to tell you I-I-I love you" 

She chokes back a sob 

"Percy I love you too"

I could tell Chaos was keeping me alive just that extra bit longer. I pull her head down to mien and kiss her lips.

My vision blurs and I murmur "Goodbye my love"
