The Black Serpent (Pjo/Avengers Crossover)

Chapter 5

Percy POV:

My heart was beating out of my chest and I clutched my head in agony. Memories flooded me and I knew I had no chance of escaping them.
*flashback* Annabeth fit perfectly in my arms as I held her shaking form. Cuts littered her beautiful face and body. I wanted nothing more then to protect her from all danger but it was too late. Tartarus broke her. I lifted her in my arms and stumbled through the ranks of monsters toward the doors of death. My breath was ragged and the toxic air of Tartarus burned my lungs. Broken glass tore my legs but I kept moving forward. The monsters were unable to see us due to the death mist surrounding us and Bob the titan led the way to the doors.
I ran forward shielding Annabeth from anything that could harm her and slashed through the chains that held the doors in place. Bob roughly grabbed me and threw me into the silver elevator, shouting at me to tell the stars he said hello. With that he held the button while still fighting the endless horde of monsters as well at Tartarus himself. Tears streamed down my face and I clutched Annabeth to my shaking body. The scene changed and I was standing on the battlefield. The clang of weapons and screams of agony filled the air. Campers and monsters dust littered the ground. The first of the seven to fall was Jason, he jumped in front of a hellhound who was about to kill Piper. She stabbed it with her dagger and fell to the ground, sobs racking her body. Before I could get to her, a Empousa snuck behind her and sliced her throat. "NO!" I screamed. I ran faster, hoping I could somehow find my friends. I next saw Hazel and Frank, both lay dead on the ground killed by hydra poison. Frank's life stick was reduced to ashes. Sobs threatened to escape my lips but I held it in. I needed to stay strong for the sake of the campers. I saw Leo flying on Festus toward Gaea but worry for him was cast out of my mind when I saw who queen dirt face was fighting. Annabeth. I ran to them but it was like I was moving in slow motion. The ground grabbed at my feet slowing me down and monsters continued attacking me. I watched the scene unfold helplessly, unable to help my wise girl. She looked like a goddess with her flowing golden locks and fierce expression. Her face was smeared with dirt and blood yet she never had looked more beautiful to me. The grace with witch she moved blew me away and she alone managed to hold her own against Gaea. That's when all hell broke loose. The little prick Octavian fired one of his cannon thingys at Festus who was hovering above Gaea, preparing to dive down and attack her. I wanted to kill him but it seemed I didn't have to. His cape got stuck in the projectile and he became a screaming fireball that shot toward the bronze dragon at incredible speeds. An Explosion lit the air and Annabeth, startled, glanced up. Gaea, finding her opening, stabbed the love of my life in the stomach with her earthen blade. An unearthly scream escaped my lips and all movement ceased. Monsters and Demigods alike turned to see what had happened. Pain flared through me and I shot into the air in a golden flash of light. Four beings appeared in front of me, a tall pale man wearing clothing made from the very fabric of reality
(a/n lol) and three wrinkly old women
(a/n Chaos and the Fates). In unison they spoke,
"All Hail Our Champion, Perceus Jackson. Avenge the fallen and stay true child. You must be brave."
I woke in a cold sweat, adrenaline coursing through my veins. What the Hades just happened? No magical beings appeared over my head during the actual battle. Glowing golden light yes. Butt kicking of she who shall not be named, check. Leo's body never being found, yep. Four beings of unlimited power? Doesn't ring any bells. Must be another stupid demigod dream thing. Unease filled me. Those three ladies were the Fates. And that man.... I shuttered. That man was incomprehensible. The raw power that oozed from him made me want to fall to my knees. He must be Chaos, Creator of the Universe. What did the dream mean? In what way am I their champion? The fates hate me. Every single day of my life proves that. I'm done being used by immortal beings as their pawn. I was done being a little soldier who follows their orders. I want out.

Nico's POV:
I shot up gasping for air, panic filling me. Sweat soaked my shirt.
Godsdammit. Percy yet again is in danger and this time he doesn't have anyone to help him. I threw off my covers, pulled on some shorts and sprinted out the door. Screeching to a halt outside the Appollo cabin and pounded on the door until a bleary faced camper came to the door.
"Nico? It's three a.m., do you have any particular reason for being up and waking our whole cabin up?"
"I need Will its an emergency. Percy's in danger."
As soon as the words left my mouth my boyfriend appeared at the door fully dressed and ready for anything. Off I went sprinting to the big house, Will hot on my heels. He could easily pass me but I guess he was following my lead.
Lights were on in the big house and upon bursting in I found a distressed Rachel talking to Chiron. Our eyes met and it became clear.
She had the same dream.
Schist.
