War and Woes

Chapter 13

Tonight is the night, he was getting 'kidnapped' tonight. He was informed that he couldn't tell anybody except for Emm and Ryder, probably because Ryder already knew and we didn't need Emm blowing up the planet. He stood up telling his soldiers to sleep for training tomorrow and sent the generals off till it was just the three of them.

"Its tonight isn't it." Emm stood up and stepped in front of him. He nodded. "Damn it Percy, why do you always have to leave." She pulled him into a tight hug.

"Hey calm down, i'm only gonna be gone for a month at most. It's not like any of them can hurt me."

"I know, i'm not worried about the Romans, i'm worried about you doing something stupid." Ryder laughed.

"I have no doubt Percy will do something stupid, he will just survive it. That's what he does Emm, he'll be fine. And we can all mind message him at anytime, its cool."

"See Emm, you will be able to keep all your little tabs on me. My mom is blocking everyone else, but you guys. Now we need to sleep so i can get kidnapped alright." They nodded and the three went their separate ways.

-Linebreak-

It was the middle of the night and Percy was woken by his mother shaking him. "Caz come on." He looked around confused about why he was being called Caz and saw Hera in the room.

"I know mom, i'm going." He stood up and changed into a Camp Half-Blood shirt and jeans. "Ugh, this feels so wrong." His mother snickered.

"I know it does Caz, its been a long time but for the sake of this plan you have to."

"I know i know. Get this over with Hera." The Queen of the Gods nodded and waved her hand covering him with dirt and slashing up his clothing.

"Here, it will help with the illusion since the predator will recognize this sword." She handed him Riptide.

"Perfect now, to California then." Chaos nodded to Hera who put a hand on his shoulder and flashed them to Berkeley Hills.

"How have you been Percy?" His head snapped up and he clasped his hands around Riptide. "Oh calm down, i'm the only one who knows."

He nodded before speaking. "How did you find out?"

"Little things that not even Hestia would notice, the way you drown your pancakes, this little furrow you get in your forehead when you get angry. You're still Percy."

"No, no i'm not. Percy Jackson died when he lost his brother and murdered innocent people." She stopped walking and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Snap your fingers for me Percy." He snapped his fingers and his black eyes melted away like his brilliant sea green. "Why are you hiding?"

"Because i would rather be dead then back here, and being Caz is as close as i can get. Also i learned a few things about the people i once loved." She smiled sadly at him.

"I think it's time Percy Jackson returned from the dead." She rubbed his shoulder.

"Well you're in luck, he has to." She looked at him confused. "At camp jupiter i'm going to have green eyes and i can't just magically change them to black and have nobody be suspicious. I'm going to tell them i'm a primordial after the quest," He paused. "Just before i'm no longer a primordial. God Damn it!"

"Percy don't shout." She scolded. "Whats wrong."

"I have to give up my stupid primordial powers do do the fucking prophecy." She didn't even try and correct his language. "No, you know what. I'm going to fucking keep them, i don't give a shit. If the fates have a problem i will get their mother to talk with them."
