Dark Roads

Power

'Well, hell,' I think to myself. At least this can explain how I never miss a shot or survive every encounter. "Dammit," I say to myself while looking up at the moon (hint hint). I hop of the tree I'm standing on. I land, and take off at a sprint. (He's currently a few miles away from camp)  I arrive back at camp a few hours later. On the run I've had a chance to do some introspection. 'Well if I'm the son of the literal goddess of luck, then I should have SOME powers," I contemplate to myself, ' Well I'll find out tomorrow.' I creep in through a hole in the roof of the Hermes cabin and go to sleep.

TIME SKIP TO AFTERNOON OF THE NEXT DAY

I exhale, releasing myself from the meditative state I was in, 'Looks like fanfictions lied to me, I DON'T have a core of power or some shit.' I stand up, dust myself off and further think about the situation I'm in. ' Maybe, my... my
... luck power? Is activated when doing shit that requires it.' Hmm that's a good thought well, time to find something potentially fatal to try. 'I COULD just... walk into a freeway, and see what happens... Eh what the hell, ya only live once.' I go to the super duper conviently hidden bike garage in the forest and jack a bike. I drive to the more... central part of NYC where there's a lot of cars and shit. I stop 'my' bike a look at the ocean of moving cars and semi trucks. 'Fuuuck that's a LOT more than I thought.... Fuck it, I'm already here, it'd be a waste of gas if I DIDN'T do this.' I mentally prepare myself and begin the almost guaranteed last moment of my life. As I'm walking, it seems like cars just, always seem to miss me by the barest of centimeters. As I'm walking, I look behind me and see mountains of fiery scrap and what looks like a junkyard of hell. 'H-holy shit, I somehow stutter in my head. I'm literally invincible, what the HELL.' I look up and see the empire state building and get an idea. I stroll over to the entrance, and go into the building. I look at the guy at the front desk. Before he even raised his head, he said in an exhausted voice," THERE isn't a 600th floor, so if that's what you're here for than please leave." He looked up and saw me. " Oh sorry, I'm just used to these little assholes always threatening me to get to some imaginary 600th floor," he said tiredly. I just nod hesitantly. "Yeaah I just need to get to the top floor," I say to him. He just nods and hands me the key. I walk into the elevator and press the button for the 102nd floor. Some nice jazz music plays as I bob my ahead along to the beat. I finally reach the top floor with a loud, DING! I exit and look around me, nothing but glass really. I go the nearest window and look out. Nothing but 1200 feet of pure fear. I take a deep breath, count to ten and pull out The Judge. I take a few steps back, aim and fire at the glass, shattering it in a million pieces. I walk to the edge of it and look out below me. "Shit that's fucking high," I mutter to myself. I then step over the edge. As I'm falling, reaching closer and closer to the bottom, I hear a loud boom. I look over and see what appears to have been a loud explosion in the side of the building next to me. As I look back down I see a very long and thick cable flying towards me. I inhale, and just as it passes me, I grab onto it. The force from the momentum of the cable nearly rips my damn arm off, but other than severe pain, I'm good. As I'm swinging along like Tarzan, I see a helicopter flying near me. I grin as I get a plan. As the cable gets closer to the helicopter I let go, and as I'm flying at mach .5 I put myself in a pole like position and crash through the pilots window, causing him to get forcibly ejected, probably dead. " Sorrrry," I yell out the shattered window. I look at complicated controls when I realize... I don't know shit about flying. 'Fuck I'm gonna have crash land," I hurriedly think to myself,' I see long island in the distance and get yet another genius idea. As I'm busting my ass trying to keep this thing in the air, I get closer and closer to camp, I can see the beach and kids playing volleyball. As I'm flying at mach 1 towards the beach I can see the kids pointing at me and yelling at each other. They all run clear of the beach as literally just about to crash. "THIS IS GONNA FUCKING HURT," I scream to myself as I crash land, everything goes dark.

Time skip 8 hours

I groan as I wake up, opening my eyes and seeing nothing but white. ' Ugh who turned up the brightness, damn,' I groused in my head. I turn my body over and and suddenly fall out of the bed I was in with a loud bang. "SHIT", I exclaim. I rub my bandaged shoulder, now more sore than before. I fumble the way to my feet. I stumble to the door l, opening the door and immediately closing my eyes as I noticed how bright it was. "Jesus fuck, Apollo turn that shit down," I mutter to myself. I swear that I hear a laugh. I limp over to the big house. I see Chiron and Dionysus on the porch playing pinochle. "Ahh Markus, I see you have managed to recover enough to walk over here," Chiron says with mirth. I just tiredly nod my head and sit down, grab a deck of cards and deal in the game. "So Lukas what caused you to crash that... primitive metal carriage," Dionysus says like the prick he is. " You really wanna know," I ask? At their collective nods I just sigh and explain what I did. When I finish I look up to see Chiron looking at me in what seems to be disappointment and a little bit of shock, Dionysus however just looked as glazed over as always. "Well I do hope you learn from this, my boy," Chiron says in that annoyingly wise voice. I just chuckle and say," Trust me I won't have to worry about dying to anything not natural." He just looks at me for a second then shakes his head. "Well I guess I should go," I fold my hand and get up. "It's been real," I say, then leave. 

Time skip another few hours to nighttime

There's a vicious storm this night, almost like Zeus himself is angry. As I'm walking the path along the forest I hear a bunch of yells, snorts and just average main character bullshit. "Goddamnit," I mutter, then run to where the noise is coming from.

Hello, dear readers, if you haven't figured it out yet, the mc will be powerful as fuck. Now he won't be all-powerful, and by no means will any primordial besides Tartarus, Gaea, Nyx or Erebus be mentioned cuz that shit gets annoying now and then. And for anyone wondering about what his powers are like, just imagine Domino from marvel, but like times 2.
See ya next chapter, adios
