I got everyone to quiten down when the doors to the throne room opened. My son, Percy Jackson, stood in the doorway.

"Chiron told me that you wanted to see me?"

"Yes." Zeus said. "You are guilty of being a spy for Ouranus, the next enemy in a coming war. Do you plead innocent or guilty?"

Wow. I did not see that coming. I looked at Perseus. He looked like he was about to explode.

"Brother, please. He has saved us many times. I sincerely doubt that he is working with the enemy." I told Zeus.

"Be that as it may, we have evidence. Thomas Burns, the accuser, come forth and show us the evidence."

Thomas came from a passageway at the side of the Council Area. He made a rainbow using his water powers and the sunlight that came in through the window. He tossed a drachma I'm too the rainbow and said

"Oh, Iris, goddess of the rainbow, please accept my offering. Show me the evidence."

A video started playing in the mist:

The video:

Percy stood in his cabin, alone, and looked around for anyone who may have been watching the scene. Figuring out that he was indeed alone, he tapped his watch three times and said,

"Ouranus, come forth."

A light blue figure formed itself from the mist in front of Percy, and Percy dropped into a low bow.

"Lord Ouranus, I come with word of the Camp."

"You may speak, Perseus."

"The barriers are failing, and the passageway through the labyrinth is once again open. The way into camp is clear. You will be able to send troops in and out with ease."

Ouranus smiled at this. It must have made his job a lot easier.

"Is that all?" Ouranus asked.

"Yes, M'lord. For now."

"Very well. We will speak again soon."

Video end

"Well? Do you plead innocent or guilty?" Zeus asked, losing his patience.

Percy began to smirk.

"Well, I was actually innocent. But now, maybe I should change sides. What have the gods ever done for me? I might as well just... Not be good anymore."

I stared at Percy, alarmed by his statement. All the other gods seemed to be in the same state. In our moment of being distracted, he left the throne room.

Once he left, Demeter regained her composure.

"He was joking... Right?"
