3 - Blessed

3 years later...

Percy POV

Being blessed by all the primordials and being the son of all the Olympians can take a toll on a 10 year old's life. I realize that I'm not Zeus' son, but if I had to say that and get the sentence all twisted, I would get confused.

Yes, I know. I'm the son of Athena. I should never get confused. But, I'm also the son of Poseidon, Apollo and Hermes. I think you get my point.

Anyway, you may think that being blessed by pretty much all of the all powerful beings (not Titans and Giants) would be awesome, and it definitely is, except for a few small things.

Imagine having your life being torn into A weeks, B weeks, C weeks and D weeks. That is literally my life. A weeks are when I just hang around with the Olympians, they're pretty awesome. B weeks are quests for the Olympians, those are pretty easy. C weeks are spent training and getting to know the Primordials better, which is epic. And last but not least is D weeks, when I get sent on quests by the Primordials.

Right now, I'm in the middle of a B week. They're pretty good to practice the powers that I'm amateur with. So, I'm currently fighting a hydra, and I'm getting pretty bored. I decide to use the technique that I learned on the last C week with Tartarus.

I release my aura. I realize what you might be thinking. What? What is releasing his aura going to do against a hydra?

But, apparently, my aura is powerful. More powerful than all the primordial's aura's mixed together. Tartarus told me it was because I was a mix of all the Olympian's aura's and all of the Primordial's aura's and usually they didn't mix well.

So, I released my aura and the hydra screamed in agony and disintegrated almost instantly.

I could almost imagine Tartarus nodding approvingly.

I transport myself back to Olympus to see Hestia sitting at the hearth. I sat down next to her and she noticed me. "Hello, Perseus. Done your quest already?" I nodded.

"Great job. What was your technique?" She asked. I never imagined her as someone who would influence me to train, but she was one of the people who knew how to give me the best tips on fighting.

"I released my aura. Usually it's hidden and Tartarus showed me how to reveal it. It's deadly to most monsters and all mortals." I answered. She nodded and told me to go to Apollo and Artemis for my next quest.

I did as she said and mind-messaged Apollo. "Hey, dad. It's Percy. Um, Hestia told me to talk to you and Arty about my next quest." Apollo replied almost instantly:

"Yes, ask her where her hunter's camp is right now and then we will meet there. Okay?" I agreed and mind-messaged Artemis, she said her hunt was currently in Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario. I transported there immediately.

I appeared but I was facing the forest. I turned around to look at the camp and I saw about two dozen arrows, pointed at my face. I heard Artemis say, "What's happening?"

She pushed through her hunter's lines and saw me. She grinned. The hunters got confused. But they got even more confused when she ran up and hugged me.

The hunters hesitantly put their bows down. Artemis pulled away and turned to her hunters. "Go back to your training. This is just a... visitor from Olympus." I looked at the hunters who were glaring at me suspiciously. They definitely did not fall for Artemis' lie.

Artemis grabbed my hand and pulled me into a tent before one of her hunters exclaimed, "Who is he?"

I looked over to see a girl who was about my age. Artemis glanced at her and said, "You do not need to know, Zoe. I might explain it to the hunters later if you behave." Zoe nodded and ran off.
