Chapter 16: Reading Insulting the God King

It was time to rest again after they had spent an hour reading, and since most everyone had ADHD, they needed to keep active, Nyx left to do her Immortal chores, such as bringing the darkness for the night, while Artemis brought the moon and stars. Apollo had left at six to set the sun, and Zeus along with Poseidon decided to make a storm. Taking their anger out and letting it go to earth.

Hephaestus and his children went to a minor volcano/ heat room so they could make things.

Iapetus decided he wanted to see the stars and went by himself.

Kronos lead Percy on a stroll through Olympus, making an allusion, so no one would see his face, or them holding hands.

Luke needed to eat so he decided to sit with his half brothers and sisters and explain why he was with the Titan lords, after all, they had raised him from the dead, Luke Castellan owed them a life debt. Also, he had pledged himself to Kronos and his cause, and only the Titan could release him, but he would never because he saw the right ways and believed in them anyway.

Athena decided to read and see about time travel, but got no luck, since it was not for her to know what was going on in other dimensions.

*2 hours later*

Daphne Blake, daughter of Aphrodite, with long blond hair, and blue eyes decided she wanted to read, so she put her hair into a perfect bun, sprayed her mouth, filed her nails and held her hand in the air when Athena asked who wanted to read next. Her siblings giggled as she was chosen. Like before there was a gust of wind and the book opened to the proper page, looking down Daphne began to read.

The enthusiasm of the twins was infectious, Percy thought. They ran down the stairs with rucksacks over their shoulders and Zoe had tripped and almost fallen, but Abiron has seemed to sense it was going to happen and grabbed her arm to steady her. He had then jumped over the railing of the stairs and landed with a thud that Percy could have sworn made the house shake. Victoria had quickly descended, scolding her son for almost breaking the floorboards, and warning them against getting into too much trouble. He had then preceded to ask when they were going to get to kill a monster, which had started Victoria off again.

"Boys all they care about how many monsters they have slain." Athena muttered.

"So? Girls so to, no one is perfect and all looking forward to challenges!" Percy disagreed.

"He's going to get along with the Ares kids," Nico had murmured into Percy's ear. Percy ignored him and had calmed down Victoria, claiming that they definitely wouldn't be fighting any monsters any time soon, or at least until they could wield a weapon properly. Abiron had then claimed that he already knew how to fight – apparently, Krios had taught him at points when Victoria was out – and he had taken out a dagger. It was at that point that Percy and his cousins decided to get them out of the house before Victoria started spitting fire.

Percy quickly vapour travelled them all to Half-Blood Hill, and Zoe had immediately taken a liking to Peleus, surprising the three demigods as the dragon allowed her to pet him. Abiron had moved to stay at Zoe's side and seemingly act as a bodyguard for his sister as the gods, Chiron, and the demigods had approached.

Zeus looked straight at Jason as he spoke, ignoring the twins. "Do they know?"

"Know what?" Katie asked and put the book down, they had switched readers again because Daphne had complained earlier her throat was dry, and since she was a daughter of Aphrodite they knew she just didn't want to read. She had gotten her thrill.

"Yes," Jason nodded, "they have for a long time."

Zeus frowned down at the demititans. "Do you know your father, mortals?"
