Pertemis the Forbidden Love

Chapter 9

Chapter 9

PERCY POV

I was unconscious that much I knew and the last thing I remembered was taking Zeus's master bolt for my dad and yeah that would explain the electrified feeling and the passing out. The only thing that didn't make any sense was the fact that I was still alive. By now I should've been in Tartarus reforming not just floating in darkness in the middle of nowhere then something started to make its way out of the darkness that I knew very well it was three little old ladies who loved to make my life a living Hell, the Fates.

"Hello Perseus." They rasped I stood well more like floated there in shock why had the fates come to see me of all people? "We know you are wondering why we are here are you not?" they again spoke in unison

"As a matter of fact yes I am haven't you had enough fun with my life, why cant you just leave me alone?" They looked at me sorrowfully before a string appeared floating above their hands it was sea green and after the first two masses of tangled together string it had a gold bordered to it. "What is that thing?" I asked

"Perseus Jackson this is your life string." They said and I stared at them with my mouth agape "It was woven long ago by our mother Anake with the help of Lady Chaos herself, you were never within out power if your life had been within our grasp we would've taken pity on you long ago." I was astounded the Fates had no power over my life.

"What are the tangled masses of string?" I asked

"They represent the wars you have been and will be in." They said.

"So wait, why is the third the largest I thought this was just going to be a small war between the Olympians."

"No Perseus Zeus was looking for a reason to destroy the majority of the council that he sees as threats to his rule. And this gives him a reason to do just that." The Fates said "That is why we stopped you from going to Tartarus if Poseidon and his allies want to have any chance at winning you will need to be there to fight with and lead them."

"But why?" I asked "Zeus has only Hera, Demeter, Aphrodite, and Ares that are siding with him."

"But along with them he will bring back the titans after he makes them swear Chaos oaths not to betray him." Stated the Fates.

At this my eyes snapped open in disbelief "Which titans?" I asked

"He is bringing Hyperion, Atlas, Iapetus, Oceanus, and Kronos in this godly form." At this point I had almost lost all hope of us winning all of our most powerful enemies from the Titan war were working with Zeus. I remembered fighting Kronos when he was still in Luke's body and that was almost impossible now I didn't know if I would be able to defeat him.

"Fear not young Perseus." The fates said "We are here to help you win this war." At this I felt better but at the same time I wondered how the fates could help me win a war.

"We come with a message from Chaos, she says that are may bring three people who will become immortals free from the ancient laws back from the dead she also says that you and one other person of your choosing can become free of the ancient laws forever." At this my hopes increased I knew there was a chance that we could win with these odds.

"I choose to bring back Zoe Nightshade, Luke Castellan, and Bianca di Angelo I want the other person to be free from the ancient laws to be Phoebe Artemis." The Fates nodded as they had expected this.

"We also bring you a weapon from Lady Chaos its name is Elucidator, It has the ability to force immortals to fade." With that being said they pulled a black sword from behind the three of them and gave it to me.

"Thank you lady Fates, and please give my thanks to Lady Chaos as well." I said bowing slightly to them.

"We will Percy now the three you wished back will appear when you call for them at Camp Half-Blood we suggest that you go there and Camp Jupiter to gather the demigods before Zeus has the chance to as his forces will already contain a great number of monsters."

"Thank you I will do as you suggest." I said hoping that Jason and Thalia would still join our side even though they would be fighting against their father. It was at this point I began to see a light in the darkness that surrounded us.

"Oh and Perseus the Elucidator will appear for you in camp as well and one last thing good luck."

"Thank you." I said as I began to run towards the light I hope to see you again and not before I am sent to Tartarus to reform." They smiled at this as they already knew all of the possible outcomes of the war. And with those last words I began to run toward the circle of light as I knew it would wake me up.

ARTEMIS POV:

At the start of the flatline all of the gods stopped their efforts to keep Percy alive and began to cry myself especially the first man I fall in love with just has to go and get himself killed. But then again that is why I love him because of his ability to do selfless acts like that and never ask for anything in return. I began to cry thinking of all the things that Percy and I would never get to do together at least not until he reformed but that could take centuries. I was still crying when I thought I felt his hand twitch. It couldn't have because the heart monitor was still flat lined. I began to notice more movement from him and so did the other gods which stopped them from crying finally with a massive gasp Percy woke up and I tackled him in a hug. Many other gods did the same though none were harder than Poseidon, Hestia, and me. Percy was finally able to get some space to breathe but it was at that pont we noticed the grave look on his face.

"We are in trouble." He said
