A/N: I Would just like to thank you for the encouraging comments, I managed to regain some of the motivation I had. I know this is a short chapter but I wanted to put one out as fast as I could, I also had to find all of my original plans for this story.
Percy POV:
I was planning to explain everything that had happened to everyone, but I just ended up stuffing my face with Calypso and Hestia's delicious blue pancakes.
After I finished eating I noticed that the morale of the room had been lifted, as even Piper was chuckling at my face full of blue crumbs. This made me laugh at myself, and the whole table exploded into a laugh that lasted for a good while.
As the laughter dissipated Maximus reminded me of the current situation.
I waited for the table to go quiet and then stood there in an awkward manner.
I'm not built for this kind of stuff.
But I am.
Are you suggesting...
We might as well do it now that we are in a controlled environment.
Are you sure?
Just shut up and let me take over.
3rd person POV:
As the table sat in uncomfortable silence Percy slowly got up from the wheelchair. And despite the warnings from everybody, he didn't sit back down.
His bandages slowly started falling off as his muscular body started glowing a dark blue light. Once the light dissipated an immense surge of power made the mansion and island shake, breaking the majority of the glass accessories in the close vicinity.
And Percy's figure came back into view, except that he now had white hair, permanent black hole eyes that flared the scariest aura ever, and overall looked scarier and more serious.
"Hello everyone, I'm Maximus!" Maximus said with a firm look.
"What?" Grover bleated.
Artemis instantly pointed her knives at the stranger's throat, which was quite difficult considering Maximus's aura.
"Who are you, what happened to Percy!" she asked, clearly straining herself.
"I'm Percy, well not exactly. It's more like we're two personalities in one body, both fully conscious." Maximus explained.
"So, I suggest you put the weapon down before you hurt us." And with that, he grabbed the knives and molded them into the original chaos platinum stick and gave it back to Artemis.
That settled it, Maximus and Percy, they were indeed two personalities in the same body. Since only the owners of the Chaos platinum weapons or those authorized could hold them.
"Wait, so how... what..." Thalia tried to ask.
"Well, it turns out that Tartarus messed up the original Percy pretty badly. So bad that he became 2 people to half the pain in fact." Maximus answered.
"Oh, gods!" was the exclamation that left everyone's mouth.
"Well... I'm fine but Percy may have some repercussions, he is the more sensitive side after all."
"How can you speak of him like that, that's his best quality! He cares about people!" Calypso defended him.
"Still, for a while, you will have to pay extra careful attention to him." Maximus continued.
"Also, we dreamed something tonight and it wasn't reassuring..." Maximus said.
After having explained the entire dream to the group he decided that he wanted to go to the beach to re-energize himself.
Which he would have done if he hadn't gotten interrupted by a dull gray light signaling the arrival of the Fates.
"Goodmorning Champion of Chaos." they all said in unison.
"Lady Fates, what are you doing here?" Maximus asked as the entire room bowed.
"We have come on behalf of Lady Chaos, she has requested a change in the lover's powers; she doesn't find them enough to face the incoming threat to the universe." The Fates explained.
"So we're getting better powers?" Thalia asked, all excited.
"Yes, daughter of Zeus."
"Please, call me Thalia. I don't want to be identified as my father's daughter."
"So what are the changes, Ladies of Fate?" Artemis butted in.
"Lady Chaos requested that the current lovers of Perseus and Maximus hereby be known as Annabeth Chase, Primordial of Wisdom and Technology; Artemis, Primordial of the Night; Zoe Nightshade, Primordial of the Day and Thalia Grace, Primordial of Energy." They announced.
The people named, including Percy/Maximus all started glowing with the colors related to their domains.
"But aren't some of those domains already claimed?" Hestia observed.
"Unfortunately all the previous owners faded, Lady Chaos believes Order has something to do with it." The Fates answered.
"We must leave now young Heroes but for now you must stay here and train on this Island, you are not yet powerful enough to face our enemies. Farewell, heroes." they said before returning to where they came from.
"...The Primordials,...faded?" Hestia asked.
"Apparently... Well, I'll be going to the beach I need to go for a swim. All I ask for is that we meet up here this evening. We need to discuss how we're going to defeat Tartarus and what's going to happen with everyone." Maximus said
"I really need to clear my mind though, Percy is bugging me." He said as he disappeared in a cloud of mist.
"I think we should all go for a walk to clear our heads." Annabeth observed.
The rest of the room nodded and left to explore the massive island.
(I finally managed to find the closest thing to the Island, imagine this shape but with the dimensions of the first picture. The Arena is on the island on the middle.)
