Chapter 4 Getting a clean slate

Disclaimer : I own my oc's and the universe I am building.

On the next day, Percy is walking the streets dressed in an all-black attire - black shirt, Harrington jacket, and striped trousers, the look was completed with casual white and blue Air Jordans.

Percy is walking around seeing so many people going through their day until he stopped at a tattoo shop " Mars Blood Spot " in Latin,

Percy see the open sign and he reaches for the door knob where he twisted it then he opened the door of the shop.

" Mar's Blood Spot how may I help you ?"

Percy sees the worker or owner who is a tall Caucasian man in his mid-to-late twenties with a lean muscular build and a square jaw as well as a handsome yet chiseled face. He is a brunette and his hair has been styled into a buzz cut with a couple of visible lines shaved out at the front hairline. He also has many tattoos along his arms and a couple on his torso, none of which have been colored. He also has brown eyes with what appears to be a cut above his right eye on his eyebrow, which as a result makes his eyes look slightly somewhat asymmetric at certain points or angles

He is dressed in a red tank top and navy jeans. Percy sees the guy has a body filled with tattoos from his arms to his neck.

Percy said," I am here to see if I can get a tattoo removed."He sees the owner raise an eyebrow at his statement.

The man asked," It depends what tattoos is it." : He looked at Percy ith a curious epxression.

Percy raises up his right arm and he rolled down his sleeves revealing his old Roman 's tattoo casuing the owner to go pale seeing the tattoo.

The owner muttered something like" Per Jovem et Deos" which translated to By Jupiter and The Gods!''

Percy's senses go on high alert hearing the owner speaks Latin as if standing before him was a demigod or something along those lines.

Percy said," Guess I came to the wrong place .' He turns to head towards the door.

" WAIT!"

Percy stopped as he was about to reach for the door but he froze hearing the owner's voice.

The owner said," You are a demigod aren't you? I am a demi-god like you. I am a son of Mars!" He looked at Percy's retreating back with widened eyes.

Percy stated," I'm a former son of Poseidon/ Neptune." He sees the owner looking taken back by the former part but stunned by the Poseidon/ Neptune part.

The Owner stated," You are a son of Neptune or Poesdion. You are Greek Demidog but yet you bare the marking of a Roman Demigod." He looked at Percy with newfound intrest and confusion.

Percy stated," Its Complicated." He doens't wish to dwel back on the past about his exploits as member of Camp Juipter.

The owner said," Take all the time you need man as I have a feeling that it will be intresting tale and let takes this to the back." The Owner gestured for Percy to follow him into the back.

Percy looked a bit paranoid but he followed the Son of Mars to the back of the shop as he wondered if he is going to have the tattoo of Camp Jupiter removed.

As the two made to the back where the tattoo machine is on tables along with the gun and two chairs in the middle of the room.

The owner said," Take a seat and you can tell me your tale as I prepare my shit to remove your SPQR mark." He made his way to the table to retrieve the necessary tools to remove the tattoos.

Percy stated," Works for me and never got your name." He looked at the Son of Mars with a curious expression.

" Names Rig!"

Percy watches as the new namely named Rig looked at his tools then Percy begins to take a deep breath as he about to tale his former demigod life.

Percy said," My name was once Percy Jackson son of the Sea God , Retriever of The LIghting Bolt, Savior of Olympus ........" Percy begins his tale of his exploits with a blank expression.

Rig listen to Percy's tales and he heard what Percy went through as a demigod making him stunned at what he had encountered, the dangers, and the quests which made Rig stunned at what Percy accomplished.

To hear that a twelve-year demigod killed the Minotaur without any formal training beating his father's Greek counterpart, surviving the pit, and holding the skies for Artemis.

He heard about how Percy became a Praetor of Camp Jupiter until he regain his memories which made him look at Percy with respect and awe.

Then Percy mentioned the reason why he is a former demigod and Rig couldn't believe the stupid of the Gods except for one , the campers from both campers san a few of them for betraying Percy for a newbie who relies on lies and can't even use a sword.

Rig shouted," Those fools! They didn't ask for your side of things ? Is this what they called fairness!" He looked very murderous after hearing Percy's tales of how he was betrayed.

Percy stated stoically," It shows you that they are not so different than their predecessors." He crossed his arms.

RIg snorted," You don't say and I can see why you want to be rid of your mark." He sees Percy roll up his sleeve revealing the mark.

Rig walked over with his tool and he begin to get to work on removing the mark off of Percy's arm while Percy looked at Rig doing his work.

A couple of minutes Percy is walking out of the shop with a business card in his hand from Rig and the card is a close friend who is a Greek Demigod son of a Forge God who makes weapons.

Percy looked at his arm that is freed of the SPQ marks thanks to Rig 's tools and he contuned walking until he see a clothing store in the distance. Percy  smiled as he knows he needs some old clothes.
