The Darkest Light: Rise of the Forgotten

five not so normal kids

?? POV

if you ever wondered if there were other demigods who saved the world, other than the famous Percy Jackson everyone loves, there are, and this is my story, well not just mine, but come on, my point of view is the best, right?

Let me introduce myself, I'm Alex, the oldest in my group, I'm a son of Hades, shocking, I know, you don't see one of us around really often. I'd say I'm pretty strong, I can manipulate shadows and raise the dead. I've got a hairclip, not a normal one, yk the famous pen of Percy? Well my hairclip can do the same thing, it was a gift from my father for when I was born, I guess he already knew I would have needed it. Then I got this bracelet, yk one of those Italian charm ones, again, a gift from my dad, It'll be more useful than I ever thought.

Anyway, least move to the others, first of Karl younger than me of 3 months, he's a difficult guy, most of the time you won't understand if he's serious or sarcastic, and he can be a total jerk with people he doesn't know, yk one of those party poppers? He's a son of Circe, he can basically do anything with his wand, which is super cool, but do not let him know I said that, otherwise he won't stop testing me about it. He has super long dark red hair in a braid which always takes him ages to do, and green forest eyes. He's tall, like a lot.

Then we have Sky, he's well complicated, he's like the middle child of the group, and a son of Hermes. Yk the shoes that almost throw Percy satyr friend into tartarus? Well he has similar ones, he's always flying or running around, he can't stay still for a second and he always has a sarcastic remark about everything, but at least he can make us crack a smile even in sad situations, because he can't take anything seriously, not even if his life depends on it. He's always wearing a beanie, he looks like any son of Hermes, a sneaky grin, he has brown hair in a mullet, and I'd be lying if I say he doesn't look good, in a totally bro romance way, ofc.

The second youngest is Sophie, I would be long gone if it wasn't for her, she's a daughter of Demeter, but dont let that fool you, she's a total badass, she can grow plants not in a 'cute garden' way but in a 'do me wrong and I will grow a ivy out of nowhere and slap u with it' kinda iconic isn't she? She got some seeds as weapons, why? because she just throws them in the ground and makes them grow as a defence mechanism. She has dark skin and she has long white dreadlocks with charms on them, she's absolutely stunning, and brown eyes.

And then the kid of the group, Noah, I mean he's just 5 months younger than Sophie but he's still a kid to me. He's a son of Apollo, but he refuses to be a healer, why? Personal principles, he's the most skilled archer I know, and he can manipulate sunlight so I'd say he's not a weak little child who has to be protected, he knows how to defend himself. He has blond fluffy hair in a wolf cut, and blue eyes that look right into your soul.

Now, you may wonder, how exactly 5 emo looking demigods saved the world? Well good question, yk I've never been a fan of phrofecy, but when the king of the gods himself made me choose at the age of 7 between living on the run with just one phrofecy on me and my friends while killing monsters or going to camp half blood and probably having to save the world more than one time I choose to be on the run.
I regret that choice everyday of my life, because the single phrofecy I got is no easy one, I have to save the world from this dude, Theron, the name says a lot already, who's the son of kronos! I mean he's not a full ass titan he's half human half titan, how's that possible? I have no idea, I just know he's not an easy guy. And what makes it better? He hates my guts, just because I won't join him in his world dominion plan.

Lest go back to my first meeting with him.

Me and the others were in the forest trying to find some sort of monster that was supposed to be hunting those zones. We've been walking for hours and I was getting tired, the forest was cold and I wanted to leave.

"Can we stop pretending to know what we're doing?" I mumbled not really talking to anyone, and I'm pretty sure Sky was the only one who heard.

"Come on Al, what's the fun in leaving now?" Sky said grinding while flying around the group.

Karl looks up at him and gives him a 'you have to be kidding me' stare.

"what! can't a man express his own opinion?" Sky says dramatically as he flop in the air.

"no offence Sky, but you're flying so your feet don't hurt like ours." Noah said, as he walked next to Sophie while looking around the forest.

"you guys just hate me" Sky said as he stopped flying and started walking with them.

We just kept walking, until I saw someone, someone I thought would be long gone, and I reacted by instinct, I ran that direction.
Usually I don't like talking about who I am and who my family is, but it's kinda important for this part of the story. Yk Nico di Angelo right? the famous son of Hades, well that's my brother, which I least saw when he was 6.
So you could imagine my shock when I saw my sister standing in the forest.

"Bianca?" I said as I walked up to her but then In a 'poof' she disappeared and I felt the air getting thicker.

I could hear my friends'footsteps running after me, but then another voice covered them.

"We finally meet don't we? Son of Hades." If I could describe that voice I would probably compare it to a fork scratching a black board. I hated it. And at that time I didn't even know who that man was.

"who are you?!" I said in a defensive tone,cuz yk a random voice is talking to me in the middle of a fucking forest.

"My name is Theron, I'm here to propose a deal for you." This Theron dude said, I mean, how much does your parents hate you for calling you Theron?

"what deal..?" I said as I was ready to attack anytime, since as a said a random male voice was talking to me but I had no idea from fucking where it was coming from.

"my deal is simple, you help me take over Olympus and I help you use your real power and make you invincible. Easy isn't it?" The voice said in a tone that felt so close but also so far.

I could start to see a silhouette of someone coming closer, he was tall, taller than anyone I've ever seen, O couldn't tell how his face was, it was night, but from then on, that face I couldn't see well, would have hunted me for a lot of time. He was wearing a black coat that covered his body, and hair. Not the most attractive man you could imagine.

"my gods, again? why do people want to take over Olympus so badly, get an original reason." I said as I rolled my eyes and the deal. Even if his presence was making my body heavier. "and my real powers? I already know my powers."

"Are you sure? Did you ever wonder what that bracelet of yours could do?" Theron interrupt me, mean asshole, with his annoying voice.

"I don't care, I'm not joining some psycho who wants to take over Olympus, fuck off, I've got things to do" I said in a rather annoyed tone.

Theron looked at me and took a step closer, the hair was getting even more heavy and so was my body, this man, or whatever he was, was not someone to joke with, it took me a while to realise.

"Who exactly are you." I said in a more defensive tone as I take a step back with my guard more up than ever.

"I'm the son of Kro-" Before he could finish that phrase my friends arrived and he disappeared, but I perfectly understood who he was, and I was worried about it.
