Percy Jackson and Uncle Stark (Rewrite and Better) *Complete*

Chapter 19- Releasing Steam

Happy Halloween!

Percy's P.O.V

Before Blackjack interrupted

"Ok we are here to make a plan for defeating the titan. Who is mostly after Percy." Zeus boomed

I felt the pang in my chest saying that I should just give myself to him, to stop the fighting. As if reading my mind Artemis said, "No Percy you aren't giving yourself up."

I looked down then back up I was going to say something until lots of 'No' filled the air when I opened my mouth. I guess that is out of the question.

"This might be a bad time, but Tartarus is rising again but not this moment," Hades looks to me when saying this, "I can't find Annabeth's soul, I haven't for a long time. Trust me I've been looking, but she always felt weird when it came to a soul."

That was a bullet to my heart, "Where's Annabeth and what do you mean by soul?"

"Well," looking uncomfortable Zeus spoke up, "he has told us that she has always felt dead but not fully, we are as confused as you."

"You also said Tartarus is rising again, how is that possible?"

"We can only assume someone on the inside told him where we buried the thing that can help him rise, the only people who knew were us the Olympians plus Hades and Hestia, You, Annabeth, Thalia, and Nico"

"How is this possible?" I said rubbing my hair, I was so confused, "Nico's a no, he likes the underworld, Thalia's a no she loves the Hunters she would never betray them, Me that answer is obvious, my flaw is personal loyalty, Annabeth...please tell me that's a no, she. She is dead."

The Olympians and the Avengers look at me sadly, this can't be happening, she can't be the traitor. It doesn't add up. I froze, maybe it does, she disappears at times, she talks to someone then quickly ends it when I'm near, she didn't want Luke to die. "She. She works for Tartarus." I said in a frail voice, which Zeus must not have picked up on.

"It appears so Percy." Zeus BOOMED. I thought Thor was loud, my gods. My heart starts to break as I pick up more pieces of the puzzle. Annabeth disappeared once on my first quest. The second quest she was slightly against. So many things I am just finding. I start to rub the back of my head on habit. My life with my girlfriend may have been a lie...just like that cake.

I close my eyes and release my hair calmly and tried to get back on task. I open and say, "What are we going to do with Tartarus and the titan?"

The gods look at me like I'm crazy especially Athena but one look into my eyes that say 'I'm not over this, but I can't let my emotions cloud what's really important.' At least that is what I hope they see.

"Right, we need a plan." Zeus agrees

---Timeskip-After-Plan-Being-Discussed---

That was when Blackjack burst into the meeting and say the monsters are attacking central New York and are making their way here. I grab my watch and pen, making it turn into a sword and shield.

"Perseus Jackson! Get back here to discuss the plan." Zeus boomed

I get angry, "Zeus, I'm not going to leave those people down there. I will be back so shut up, I don't care right now that you are King God, but those people are defenseless and Camp Half-Blood just got out of a war. I'm going no matter what you say."

With that I whistle to get Blackjacks attention and head to the edge of Olympus. I jump and Blackjack zooms after, he catches me and we head to central of New York.

Boss, you are going to be in so much trouble. Can we get donuts before we go back as a goodbye?

I laugh and pat him, "Sure boy, let's get there in 5"

On it

With that we zoom through the city. I see 200 monsters. Feeling my frustration and anger at the gods, Fates, and Annabeth I let it go on all the monsters.

After killing them I sit down and put my head in my hands that are in my lap.Then I pinch my nose just thinking about how much my life is a lie. I really hate the Fates right now.

Blackjack comes and nuzzles my head, I laughed slightly at how ironic it all was. I get up and limped over to Blackjack, I hurt my ankle during the battle, some monster with tons of teeth came and bite into my leg. Blackjack steadied me and helped me climb onto him. "Come on I think a donuts shop close with drive thru."

He nods and heads that way, flying then hiding in a bush while I get the mist to make it seem like i'm in a car. I order donuts and we fly back to Olympus.

I get off Blackjack and he steadies me and we limb back to the throne room, when I get there they have an Irish Message that I guess they were watching me fight. The Avengers looked shocked, truth was I need to release that steam I kept in me for most of my life.

Apollo looked at me then down to my foot where the bite was, he jumped up quickly and made his way toward me. He then tells me to sit and begins to heal me. It was a bit painful but managed.

"Are you ok Percy now, we could all see you releasing your steam?" My father asked concerned.

I nod my head and we go back to talking about the plan to defeat Tartarus and the Titan, mostly on the titan as the Tartarus situation is going to take bit until he rises.
