The Heroes Of Olympus

Chapter 15

Everyone held the sticks and stood. After Hermes said 'Go', everyone started vanishing one by one. The last one to go was Frank and Connor Stoll. Frank by mistake turned into a crab! And Connor and his father couldn't stop laughing. But in the end, they finally stopped and everyone transferred safely in a room. The room was white. Like, really entirely, gleaming white. Percy couldn't help feeling a bit nauseous. In the center of the room was a tiny golden colored circle. It was very tiny. Hazel couldn't think how all of them are going to fit inside.

'Okay, now everyone. Only two people can fit inside the golden circle. So, let us go two by one.'

Leo and Calypso started. Since Calypso did not have an immortal parent, she landed with Leo only. Chiron landed near Dionysus. Why this happened, nobody knew.

As soon as they entered they noticed that Mount Olympus was looking thrice as beautiful as it already was. To Percy, it looked like the theme was Golden and White. The classic and eternal combination. The thrones were arranged and as demigods entered, more and more tiny thrones were arranged near the bigger thrones. All the Gods were seated in their thrones and their kids were seated near them. Zeus and Hera, being the King and Queen of the Gods, were in the middle.

The Gods were looking different, compared to the last time they had seen them. They looked freshened up. Like all of them had taken a nice long bubble bath.

Zeus looked very happy. 'Surprising' thought Percy.

Hera looked triumphant. Like she had fought the war. Annabeth rolled her eyes.

Poseidon looked excited. Like a small child had found a new toy to play with. He winked at Percy.

Hades... well, Hades couldn't really look happy. Piper guessed it was in his nature to look evil, even if he didn't want to. After all, he was the God of Death. He did not have a throne but he was given a seat along with the other Gods.

Athena looked irritated. Percy didn't like her at all.

Ares was looking very cheerful. But, Frank knew his father. He might as well be thinking about which of the demigods to kill first.

Hermes looked... pretty much as they had left him.

Apollo looked amused. Like, he was watching a rather impressive puppet show.

Artemis looked sad and disheartened. Jason knew why. His sister had told him. Many hunters had died in the war. Thalia, thankfully, was alive.

Hephaestus was... not looking. He sat in his throne fussing over a laptop and didn't pay attention at all when the demigods arrived. Sometimes Leo wondered if Gods could be ADHD too. If so, then his father would definitely be one.

Aphrodite was looking as beautiful as always. She smiled at Piper in that beautiful, timeless way of hers.

Persephone was looking... at Hades.

Dionysus was looking very happy. None of the demigods had ever seen him that cheerful. He sat in his throne drinking wine. Maybe that was why.

Demeter was looking bored. She sat with her hand spread out and a flower growing from it.

'Welcome Kids.' Zeus said. 'Welcome to Mount Olympus.'
