Chapter 11: Complications

*Slash*

Percy using Riptide aimed to dismember Luke's hand but the young demigod reacted quickly and dodged the attack while managing to separate Riptide from Percy by kicking his wrist.

"What are you going to do about a fistfight?"

Luke mocked him with a cocky grin thinking Percy couldn't do anything when disarmed.

Percy just tilted his head as a construct of ice formed into a sword, but after taking another look at Luke it vanished.

"Have you given up already?"

Luke grinned when he saw Percy dropping his weapon But in the next second his grin was removed by a hard punch to the jaw by Percy.

"No, A quick death isn't what you deserve, I'll serve a cold painful beating"

Percy's knuckles had blood belonging to Luke on them.

"You'll regret that Jackson."

Luke got up and prepared to fight back.

While they battled, the golden fleece was doing its job and bringing Kronos back to life, As multiple vibrant colours danced above his coffin.

Clarisse, Grover and Annabeth fought with the remaining demigod, stopping them from interfering while Luke got a beat down from Percy.

Now

Luke had a black eye with blood falling from his lips but he was still excited, His God was about to rise and since Percy was beating him up he forgot about the Fleece.

"You're strong Jackson I'll give you that but even you can't defeat Lord Kronos!"

Luke exclaimed thinking Kronos would handle Percy easily when he rose, He still had hope and he didn't give up.

Percy just shook his head, the ones following evil are always the most devoted.

"You're so pathetic I don't want to look at you." Percy left Luke on his knees and was prepared to go and get the fleece before Kronos rose.

"Die!"

Luke had been looking for the perfect moment to strike, Now that Percy wasn't focused on him anymore, Luke took a dagger from a hidden pocket beside his ankle and attempted to stab Percy's neck.

"Don't touch my brother!"

Tyson suddenly appeared and pulled Luke by his collar, making him drop his weapon then threw him away before walking up to Percy.

"Are you alright Percy?"

Percy just nodded his head, glad his brother was alive.

"The water, It healed me, Son of Poseidon"

Tyson showed Percy his chest as water covered up the whole he got from the arrow.

'He regenerates slower than me.'

Percy thought but he was still glad his brother was alive as he did the unexpected and hugged Tyson.

"Glad you're alright brother."

*Bang*

The altar shook, The sky darkened the air got denser as Kronos' coffin exploded releasing a wave of pure bluish energy and pieces of rocks flew around slowly gathering to form one being.

Percy grabbed the fleece before it threw him and Tyson off the other then gave it to Tyson.

"Let's move back."
