Percy just wanted blue candy.

He had finished wrestling gods know how many tourists JUST to get the limited edition blue raspberry-flavoured candy. It was quite literally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. His plan was fairly simple: get candy, eat said candy, go Annabeth, sleep (preferably with Annabeth) and relax (also preferably with Annabeth). According to his standards at least, the plan was foolproof, excellent really, it was worthy of Athena. 

Unfortunately, fate had other plans. 

As soon as he was about to initiate phase 2 of his master plan (go Annabeth), he found a little girl who scarily resembled Thalia, got kicked in the shins and threatened by said little girl who was actually Thalia, witnessed his bro faint and carried to the infirmary, threatened again by his lovely cousin, then again by his Annabeth (he was starting to wonder why people liked threatening him), and now he was back in his scary cousin's cabin, watching his other cousin go through a vaguely familiar amnesiac spell. 

Honestly, the fates can go fu-

Anyways. Back to the present, Percy noticed how Hades's cabin was honestly a lot more homier than the others. The walls were black, there was a bed at the corner of the room and lots of rare antiques gracing the room, making it seem a bit more livelier. Hell, there was a plant in the corner with some flowers, probably a touch of Persephone which was a nice representation of the goddess. Percy looked around the room, taking a count of the people that were present. Annabeth had joined them, Nico was with them too, Leo was standing behind Jason,  and Jason was staring at his sister. 

"What do you mean you don't know who we are-" Jason asked a tad bit nervously. They all were present, carefully observing him, hell Leo was behind him with his arms open in case the boy decided to faint again (it was a normal occurrence).

"I- don't know.." Thalia answered nervously, her eyes darting everywhere as if she were assessing the fastest way to run out of the room (which she probably was). 

"Thalia...you remembered everything before, what changed now-" Nico asked kindly, a rare feat in Percy's opinion because gods, that kid terrified him. Although he was curious, how in Hades did she forget everything in such a short span of time?

"I don't know what you're talking about-" Thalia began, her lips trembling a bit. "I was just out with mommy right now- I don't know how I ended up here,, there was a man and- I just want mommy-" she ended with a sniff, her eyes watering. She furiously rubbed them but it was clear it didn't do much. 

Jason's eyes widened, perhaps noticing how the little girl was affected. "Hey, we'll find your mommy for you okay? Just stay calm, we'll take care of you." Everyone else nodded at that, confirming it. Jason however looked a little concerned, as if he really couldn't believe Thalia wanted her mommy. Now that Percy observed, he realized that something about the whole situation rang a bell, as if there was an important detail he seemed to be missing that would complete the whole equation and make sense. (gods he was spending too much time with Annabeth)

Thalia nodded, a little more tears gathering up until a bright light engulfed the room, temporarily blinding all of us. When Percy's vision cleared, he realized the presence of a new immortal because there he was, in all his glory and ass- uhm, he means honour, definitely, in all his honour stood Zeus, Percy's (horrible) lovely uncle. He was in his classic business suit, and a neatly trimmed beard and even though he wasn't his full godly height, he still seemed to be towering over them all. The very king of Olympus stood in the center of the room,  brightening up the whole cabin which was impressive, considering it was Hades' cabin, and his face was set into a grim expression.
