Percy Jackson and the Fall of the Gods

25

"See you...kid" The elevator doors close. I press the button for the 600th floor, the elevator jolts to life. 'Welcome to the black parade' starts to play.

Floor 300

The elevator chimes, I uncap Riptide getting ready to fight as soon as the door opens.

Floor 587

The elevator starts slowing down and eventually comes to a stop, a ding rings out and the doors slide open. I jump out... to nothing.

The once bustling streets sit empty, the wind howls down the empty streets. Not a single living thing in sight. I walk down the street, the windows being boarded shut looked very out of place in the golden temples and palaces. Some homes front doors left wide open. The torches that lined the streets sit empty and unlit.

I reach the outside of the gods council building, I place my hand on the huge metal door. I clench my fist and slam it into the door bending the huge chunk of metal and falling to the ground. Demeter pokes her head out from behind her throne, Hephaestus bangs away on a red-hot weapon on his anvil, buckets of shimmering golden ichor next to the forge. Hermes stands in front of his throne holding his caduceus in his hand. Iris, Hebe, Hecate, Nemesis, Nike, and Tyche are donating blood to the buckets. Hypnos asleep on the floor. Zeus lounges on his throne looking down at me.

"Ready to die?" I ask the gods.

They all stare at me, I walk up to the sleeping Hypnos and slash down, I pick his head up and toss it at Zeus's feet with a smirk.

"Ha! Get it...no...I sent Medusas head to Olympus, literally my first interaction with you gods." They stare at me, some of them now with horrified looks. "Oh whatever... someone fight me!"

Hephaestus charges at me with his glowing hammer, I charge at him and slide on my knees right between his legs, with a backward slash I hit his knee, Riptide continues through to the other knee. He collapses on the floor screaming, his legs no longer whole. I rush over to the blood doners, the rush to get the stuff out of their arms, golden ichor spewing everywhere. I slash the screaming hippie god and her head rolls on the ground. Nemesis manages to get a sword and swipe at me. I dodge and smile at the god, ichor spouting from her arm.

Nemesis manages to get a sword and swipe at me. I dodge and smile at the god, ichor spouting from her arm. She swings again and I parry her attack, I wrap my sword around hers and it launches in the air. I slide Riptide into her chest all the way to the hilt. I let go and she falls to the floor. I catch her sword I sent into the air and I throw it at Hecate, she barley doges it and she starts mumbling strange words. My limbs start to seize up and get herder to move.

I try to hurry to her...but its to late, my body completely freezes in place.
