The Exchange

47- Percy Has A Chat With The Mother Of Monsters

Percy never liked falling. Even since his fall from the St. Louis Arch when he was twelve he had tried to avoid falling from great distances. His fall to Tartarus had only heightened his dislike for falling.

To make a long story short, Percy did not enjoy his second fall into Tartarus. He plummeted through the darkness feeling very pissed off.

He hated Nyx with an extreme passion. He hoped that one day he would get to chop her to pieces. He spent his fall planning their triumph over Nyx.

They would wait her out until dawn and then they would cut her to pieces. Just as the Titans had done with Ouranos and just as Leo had done with Gaia.

Percy began to black out from the fall and before he knew it the world was even blacker than it had been before.

Percy came around in a dark room, seriously what was with Nyx and darkness. He mentally smacked himself for thinking that, Primortal goddess of the night; duh she has a thing for darkness.

Percy quickly shut his eyes as the feeling of pure panic washed over him. He didn't want to see what was inside the mansion of Nyx.

"Percy Jackson," Nyx's voice resonated through every fibre of his body, "so good of you to make a conscious appearance."

"Yer well, there are a few places that I'd rather be." Percy sneered back.

"Do you know why I brought you here?" Nyx asked, Percy didn't reply, he had a feeling that he had a bit of an idea why she had brought him to her house.

"I brought you here because I want you to watch your precious camp burn and all of your friends die."

"Why do you have it in for me, of all of the demigods in the world who you could have a vendetta against?" Percy frowned.

"Because Perseus, you escaped me," Nyx told him, "and no one escapes me. I'll see you when the end comes Percy Jackson."

Nyx didn't speak again so Percy assumed that the largely cocky mother of monsters had taken her leave, no doubt to go have some more children.

After his last trip to Tartarus Percy has made the decision not to sleep down in the hell pit. But eventually sleep took over.

In his dream he was in Alaska standing on the glacier where he, Frank and Hazel had freed Thanatos and pretty much destroyed the entire area.

Thanatos stood in the middle, his death pad in his hands and a cocky smile on his face. He looked up at Percy, putting his death pad away.

"Perseus Jackson, I have decided that it is time for me to repay the debt I owe you and your two friends," Thanatos told Percy.

"What debt?" Percy raised an eyebrow at the god.

"That I owe you for freeing me," Thanatos said in a 'duh' tone, "Death always repays it's debts."

"So how will you repay it then?" Percy frowned.

"The next time that the doors of death reappear in Tartarus they will appear to you Perseus Jackson, and then I will personally hold down the button for you to escape."
