The Sword and the Wand

Bless You!

Percy POV:
I was having nightmares again. Annabeth was dying again and I was breaking again. I had these dreams night after night, and I still felt the crippling pain of my soulmate, my other half; dying.
"Percy," she whispered, "Percy...you need...to WAKE UP!" I was baffled. "WAKE UP, YOU'RE LATE!" I obeyed and opened my eyes. "Annabeth?" I muttered.
   "No, it's Clarisse, and will you GET UP!" She screamed. "Mm, okay," I said as I rolled over and went back to sleep. "You have a quest in three hours! Now wake up!" Realising that I did in fact have a quest, I leaped out of bed. Clarisse squeaked and blushed and I realised I was only wearing my boxers. "S-sorry," I stuttered. "I'll get dressed." She mutely nodded, and quickly left. I smirked and got dressed.

-----🐗Its Chrysoar! Yay! Welcome to the dimension of time skippiness!------------------

"Sorry Chiron!" I said, "I forgot about the quest."
     "It's quite alright my boy," Chiron said. "A few gods and goddesses will be coming to see you before you leave on your quest." I nodded and wolfed down a quick breakfast of blue pancakes that were drowned in syrup. As I finished, the gods flashed in. They looked ridiculous, all crammed into the Big House, like peas in a pod. I bowed my head, but otherwise made no outward sigh of respect. Zeus's face darkened, but he knew that making me show respect was a futile cause. Ever since Tar-no, there, I had been bolder, and not as afraid of being fried. "Perseus Jackson!" Zeus thundered. (I already know you get it.) "A few of the council has deemed you fit to receive their blessings! Hecate will also grant you with the power and knowledge that you need to complete this quest!" Hecate came forwards.

  "Θα ευλογήσει το παρόν , ο Περσέας Jackson , με το δώρο μου μαγεία και τη γνώση όλων αυτών των πραγμάτων που σχετίζονται με μαγεία για να μπορέσετε να ολοκληρώσετε αυτήν την αναζήτηση και για την ευημερία και την ασφάλεια του κόσμου μάγων," She intoned.
(I hereby bless thee, Perseus Jackson, with my gift of wizardry and knowledge of all such things that relate to wizardry in order for you to complete this quest and for the well being and safety of the wizarding world.) I fell to my knees as the full brunt of her power hit me. I felt knowledge flowing into my brain and seeping into my conscious. Next, Zeus stepped forwards. "I, Zeus, King of the Gods and wielder of the master bolt hereby grant Perseus Jackson, son of Poseidon, twice time saviour of Olympus, retriever of the master bolt and Hades's helm of darkness, defeated of Alecto, twice time vanquisher of the minotaur, survivor of the underworld, iron skin, defeated of Ares, retriever of the Golden Fleece, survivor of the Sea of Monsters, meter of the sirens, survivor of Circe's island, holder of the sky, bearer of the Titan's Curse, rescuer of Artemis, wanderer of Daedalus's Labyrinth, defeater of Kronos, former praetor of New Rome, joiner of Greeks and Romans, finder of the eagle of the Twelfth Legion Fulminata, wanderer of the land beyond the gods, freer of Thanatos, survivor of the Nymphaeum, Bane of Gaea the permission to fly or otherwise enter my domain without fear of repercussions." I rolled my eyes and sighed. He just had to use my full title.
   Hades stepped I'm next. "I give you the same gift as Zeus." Apollo approached me next. "Hey! It's my favourite cuz! I'm gonna bless you with the ability to do archery since you are really bad at it. Wait...I feel a haiku coming on!
           Percy cannot shoot,
         Apollo helps him out,
            Apollo is great." Everyone groaned, and Artemis hit him on the back of his head. "Um, thanks Apollo." I said, somewhat uncertainly.
     Lastly, I was approached by Hestia and Athena. "I would like to give you knowledge in battle strategy, now that...now that, my daughter isn't here to help you." "Thank you Lady Athena," I said, and I immediately felt the need to scan the room for exits. I did so, and formed several escape plans in case anything went wrong and I had to get out of the Big House quickly. Hestia then stepped forwards. "Perseus, you are a kind and honourable demigod, and I would like to bestow upon you my blessing, as you saw me when no one else did. Do you accept?"
   "I do my lady," I said. I was suddenly flooded with power and realised for the first time, how powerful the goddess of the hearth was. "Not to seem greedy, or rude, but what exactly can I do now that I have your blessing?" I asked. "You now have the ability to summon flames to do your bidding, as well as home cooked food." I knelt before her. "Thank you my lady." "You have no need to bow to me Perseus." She said. "But I do," I claimed, "I now to those who deserve it, and you truly do deserve my respect." She nodded gratefully, and the gods flashed out.
