"'Who the hell is this guy??!?!?" Dionysus questioned, confusion etched as clear as day on his face. Percy resisted the urge to burst out laughing since his confusion would be highly understandable. "The name's Percy Jackson." Percy said, which did nothing to cure the gods confusion. Luckily for Percy Zeus jumped to his rescue, "Son do you remember the person I told you about named Perseus Jackson? the one that helped us during the Titan and giant war?". Dionysus nodded his head per answer the two questions and connected the puzzles together. 

His face took one of awe and admiration for the new person that had appeared in front of him. If this person was as strong as his father had told him then he knew that if both would fight he would surely loose buy a huge margin. This, of course, caused him irritation and anger but still accepted the fact that he wasn't strong enough so just nodded his head in respect towards Percy and sat back down in his throne seemingly looking more interested in the meeting than he previously was.

Percy was amazed that nothing disrespectful was thrown towards him, it WAS Mr. D they were talking about and he always had an insult or two up his sleeve so this was quite the development, not that he didn't appreciate it. shaking his head to gather his thoughts in place he clapped his hand, harsh, sending a painful sound throughout the Throne Room. The gods all send playful glares towards Percy which he just smiled his trademark smile in return. "So I have a plan as to help you all in this.....war." Percy timidly said, pausing a bit at the last word. As expected the Throne Room got more solemn and the playful air disappeared in a split second. "And what do you propose, son?" his father asked, looking expectantly towards his pride and joy, even if he wasn't yet born, technically. "I was thinking that I would be a sort of 'ninja' or 'assassin' in this war." he stated.

The gods were intrigued and wondering what crazy plan he had in mind, but waited patiently for Percy's explanation, knowing it probably would be a crazy one. "So, hear me out here, ninjas and assassins are stealthy warriors and go unnoticed by everyone in the public, never leaving a trace as to who did the dead that was carried out and no way of tracing them, right?" This got a nod of confirmation from the gods. "Exactly and since this time the technology is far more advanced then it was back in the other wars, more problems would arise if they would find out my identity and there would be a high chance that they would love taking revenge on people close to me, aka my grandparents and or great grandparents. so if I were to work in the shadows no one would be able to figure out who I am and I would still be helping around with the war. Of course this still doesn't mean that I can alter the past, or present, or whatever much so the only thing I could do is obtain information and help the Zeus and Poseidon kids to win this war."

As soon as he finished explaining the gods looked at him with surprised and amazed faces. "What?" he asked, shifting uncomfortably from one foot to another. "When did you become this smart Percy?" Artemis asked looking completely awestruck that Percy had thought about this in such length. Percy rolled his eyes in a very dramatic way that made the gods chuckle. All except one who was looking at Percy with hatred present in his eyes, one which sent chills running down of Percy's spine. Everyone in the room felt the glare that was sent to the powerful demigod. Looking in the direction from where the glare was coming from every god was surprised that it was coming off of Hades.

Said god was gripping his throne hard, cracks appearing in the armrests, his teeth seething and his aura flared up, responding to his emotions. The question that was on everyone's mind was 'What's wrong?' but they were too scared to voice their question, since that would definitely include the wrath of Hades with it and no one would want to face such a traumatizing experience. The only one brave and stupid enough to ask was our one and only Percy Jackson, of course. "What's wrong, uncle?" he asked, and that was when the cracking surface finally broke and all Hades went loose, literally.
