The Dark Side of the Moon

I

Hey guys this is my first fan fiction so please don't bash it too hard, I accept constructive criticism and of course I don't own Percy Jackson and the Olympians Rick Riordan does.

Chapter 1

Olympus, The Throne Room

Percy POV

I entered the throne room tired from the battle on the streets of New York, but as I made eye contact with Kronos my resolve strengthened. Kronos spun his scythe around in his hands ending by the scythe pointed at me and said, "Finally grandson we meet face to face." As I stared at the body of my once friend Luke Castellan his eyes flashed a dangerous gold as if taunting me to make the first move.

Kronos saw my hesitation and smiled wickedly," ah I see you have trouble coming to terms killing your friend Luke, let me be the first to assure you grandson that this might not be the perfect body to be my host, but never the less it will not interfere with my ability to stick my scythe through your weak heart." Kronos lunged at me.

Barely registering what happened I put riptide up to parry Kronos's scythe as he swung the blade down at me, only to swing his fist at me and connecting with my jaw as I blocked his scythe making me stumble back trying to regain my footing. Kronos looked at me and grinned," well, well, well look at who decided to take a dip in the river styx, all the more satisfaction it will give me when you bow and ask for mercy as I plunge my scythe through your-" I lunged and threw the hardest right hook I could and connected with his temple making him stumble looking at me in shock as I said," Oh shut the fuck up grandpa." Kronos growled and lunged once more as we met blade to scythe back and forth, never letting the other get the upper hand. As I tried to find an opening through his defenses to I realized his technique was almost flawless. Almost. He knocked me off balanced with a heavy swing of his scythe as I parried it with riptide he tried to follow with a right hook which I dodged landed a hard right punch to his ribs making him hunch over, I grabbed his head with my hands and brought his head down right into the path of me knee making him fall onto his back as he tried to register all that had just occurred.

As Kronos stood up I noticed his eyes start flickering from gold to blue back and forth, I knew I had to try to do something my friend was still in there, no matter how misguided he may be he is still my friend," Luke I know you are in there! You have to fight him he came to you when you were vulnerable and took advantage of you because he knew that your dad couldn't come and help you when-"Luke interrupted," Jackson don't you dare call that pathetic excuse for a God my father or I will kill you myself!" Luke's eyes flashed back to Kronos's dangerous gold and charged again leaving me little choice but to keep fighting. Weapons clashing I knew what would get through to him. "Luke what do you think this is doing to Annabeth? You swore you would protect her now she is lying in an infirmary bed with an injury that Apollo himself cannot heal! All because you want to get back at your fath-"Luke didn't let me finish that sentence as he dropped his scythe and fell to his knees. Luke started," I...I n-never meant for it to go this far Percy." He finally looked me in the eyes and continued," I know what I have to do give me your sword and I will end this myself, any attack from you Kronos will just deflect. Let me-"suddenly his eyes flashed from his normal blue to Kronos gold as the king of the titans spoke," I knew this host was weak, hmph oh well I will just assume full control and destroy you know my foolish grand-"Luke regained control "Percy quick, six inches down from my left armpit is my Achilles spot hurry I cannot control him for much-"I stepped back cautiously Luke began screaming his eyes went back and forth before finally choosing gold. "So Luke isn't so weak after all, to use his last bit of strength to overwhelm me and tell you his Achilles spot, very noble indeed. Too bad it will be in vain." Kronos smirked as he finished the last sentence and sent me into the nearest throne with a burst of Titan energy.
