Angel's Kiss - Pothena fanfiction.

Olympus.

The rain pored down onto the mortal world, thunder and lighting danced across the blackened sky, I sighed wishing upon the fates that things would return to normal. Well as normal as a gods life can be.

Tears brimmed my eyes, but I refused to let them fall.
The constellation of Zoe hung brightly in the sky. I sighed thinking of my sister and Percy.
Percy I felt sorry for, as soon as he saw my sister's pained look he asked me questions on how he can make it up to her. I smiled knowing he meant well.

He always means well.

A few minutes later and thoughts, of Percy's past plagued my mind.

A small boy ran through the streets, he collapsed in central Park. People walked passed him, but never helping. I was walking through, waiting for Poseidon, but he never showed. I angrily walked my eyes searching Olympus for him.
I found him, in his temple, being abused by his own trident, the person who was abusing him was covered by fog. The vision blurred out and my eyes went back to normal. I continued to walk. But I tripped. Pain shot up my leg but that was nothing compared to the  squeak I heard. A boy no older than four with black hair covered in glass and his sea green eyes were filled with tears, blood poured down his face. He cried harder, and hid under the nearby bench. I bent down and looked underneath "hey what's wrong?" I asked. The boy hiccupped and moved backwards. "Hey it's okay I'm not going to hurt you, in fact quite the opposite I am a doctor."  I spoke in sympathy, the boy stuttered out "promise your not going to hurt me" I smiled "I promise" he nodded and came out from underneath the bench. From that day on I continued to help Percy.

I continued to be lost in though but I jumped when I felt Artemis' hand on my shoulder.  She nodded in apology and I nodded back in acceptance.

Father  walked towards the elevator and left, an angry look plastered on his face. I sighed, father always seems to be in a mood, but ever since Poseidon and Athena fled he's been more angrier than ever.
I looked at Artemis hoping she saw something was wrong in the world. But she did not instead confusion laced her  face. "He's gone to find them" I spoke answering her thoughts.

"Does he succeed?" asked Percy, his voice laced in worry.  Artemis just shrugged "who knows" she replied looking at Percy with sympathy. I bit my lip in anticipation. They looked at me, for answers I could not give. "In all honest that bits blurry."

"So what do we do?" Percy asked ignoring the look he was getting, as he just stared at Zoe's constellation with guilt and sadness.

" I don't know" I spoke. Percy bit his lip and tears brimmed his eyes. "Why can't things just be normal? why can't the gods act like a family instead of murdering each other? Why isn't my father here?" he spoke like the  little kid I met under the bench.

I hugged Percy. "Your father is stronger than he looks." Percy nodded and for the first time in ages I saw him cry and look so lost. I bit my lip and Artemis eventually hugged him to. "Maybe the laws will change, after this is over." I spoke, Percy nodded "I hope so."

Hours passed and Zeus returned pissed. "Father what happened did you find them?" Artemis asked, her voice laced in worry.

"Oh I found them alright, trouble is I don't understand as to why you think it's appropriate to ask!" he snapped. She  bit her  lip and was about to apologise when I flipped. Who does he think he is. "Don't you dare blame this on us when you went after them when you  know full well they are innocent!"

Quicker than I could blink father lunged and had me in the air by my neck. I chocked, whacking father's hands to get some air. "Don't you dare speak to me like that, I am king of the gods!" he snapped as he shoved me into the ground.

I heard clicking of bones break and re a line. I whimpered in pain.
Zeus chuckled darkly and my heart pounded in my chest. "Stop!" I heard Artemis say as my fear  grew.

Father didn't listen. She grabbed his arms but he shoved her back into Percy. I cried out in pain, not for me but for them.

My vision blurred and I groaned, icore poured down my head. Artemis was no better and neither was Percy, who groaned in agony, he hissed as he checked his ribs. Broken. His eyes shot straight at me, and fear consumed him. "Percy don't you dare, not now please!" I chocked out. Artemis punched him in the arm, drawing attention back to me. He grabbed riptide and lunged at Zeus.
They battled while Artemis ran to me. I cried as Percy got thrown into his father's throne. Only to be  knocked unconscious.

Father pushed Artemis to the nearby wall. My heart pounded in my chest as he advanced closer and closer, my bones not fully recovered.  Artemis, was forced to cover her hands over her ears as I screamed when father removed my eyes.
I cried as icore poured down my face.  

 "Help me" Artemis pleaded as her tears fell down her face. I whimpered at the loudness of her voice.

We slowly walked towards my temple. "They're innocent and Kronos is behind it, Zeus and Aphrodite are being controlled and they need followers, if we stay loyal to Poseidon and Athena we should win." I spoke.
"Okay" Percy spoke, who at some point joined Artemis and Apollo, I turned to who I think was him "I'm sorry Percy I..."
"Don't worry Apollo" Percy spoke.
"But..." he cut me off once more.

Once in my temple or maybe Artemis' they laid me down on a bed,  Artemis transferred everything she could see into me by the bite in shoulder that caused me to scream in pain, my body tried fighting against her submission. I screamed, her venom taking over. Once my body finally submitted. And the pain lessened but caused me to scream I saw Percy cover his ears in pain. Two more minutes of screaming and I slowly chocked out..."Thank you Artemis."
After a while Percy found a cloth to help stop the icore flowing down my face from where my  eyes used to be.
"You need to go to the others and tell Athena's children as well as mine and the hunters" I gulped "they need to be on Athena and Poseidon's side." They nodded.

"If we do that who's going to look after you?" Percy asked, again worry laced his voice.

"I am" spoke Rachel.

Percy ran to Rachel, and they laughed. "How are you Percy?" she asked. Before he could answer I coughed, completely out of coincidences and not out of jealousy. "Hate to interrupt but I am missing my eyeballs which no one bothered to pick up." I said, Artemis rolled her eyes "I wasn't going to touch them, who knows were they have been" I glared at her and she smiled. I looked at Percy, "yeah, I was vomiting."

I stuck my middle finger up at him, and he faked hurt.

"So where do we start?" Percy asked.
"Camp half blood" Artemis replied.
They looked at me and I nodded. I saw Rachel lay down beside me, "what's the plan for us?" I smiled "anything you want." I spoke, as Percy fake gagged and Artemis laughed, at Percy. Rachel smiled. "Thank you."

Lets just hope this works, I said to no one but myself.
