Psychokinetic Disaster (Percy Jackson Fanfiction)

Chapter Six

Just as his thoughts strayed, Jason finally spoke up. "We need to go to my house. Dad knows what happened. He's already calling a meeting for the Olympians. And we need to be in it."

Percy froze and stared at the blonde teen known as his friend. "H-how do you know about them?" He asked feeling confused. One thing is leading to another. He just doesn't know how to keep up with all this. "What do you mean your dad has called a meeting? And why do we need to be in it?" Percy asked. Jason sighed and grabbed the other teen's arm, effectively dragging him towards a cab to head to his place.

"I see you found out about the Olympians. How much else do you know?" Jason interrogated. As they made their way to their destination, Percy decided to spill everything to Jason seeing that he knows more than he's letting on.

"My dad's part of them. He wants to consider himself as the leader in the organization but the members fail to see why he should be. Not that it caused a big ruckus or anything." Jason sighed. Percy listened attentively to everything what his friend has to say. "I guess this is a good time to say that your dad is part of the Olympians too. Might even get a chance to see him in the meeting my dad planned on the spot." He said. Percy ran a hand through his dark hair and leaned back into the not-so-soft but comfortable enough seat of the cab.

"From what I heard, Nico's dad is part of the Olympians." Jason said. Percy nodded slowly and looked out the window. His friend resumed telling him information he already heard of from Hades himself. He muted everything out as he recalled what happened not a few hours ago. They had taken him. They had taken Nico. Percy couldn't not suppress how angry and guilty he felt. He did practically nothing when Nico defended himself out there. God, he felt so useless. As the cab inched closer to Jason's home, Percy dreaded to face the wrath of Hades. He swore to protect Nico. And he had failed.

The brunette with green eyes groaned audibly as they climbed out of the cab after paying. Jason's house wasn't small but it wasn't too big too. "You okay?" Noticing the anxiety building inside him, Jason asked Percy. The latter only shook his head and nodded towards the entrance of Jason's house. "I'm fine. Can't wait to meet new people." He muttered.

Once they were inside, Percy could hear the quiet whispers and chattering from a distance. His blonde friend led him the way. Every step he took, he felt his heartbeat thud noisily against his chest. The chattering stopped when Jason and Percy reached a door located at the very back of the house.

Jason knocked three times fast then a slow two knocks. He heard the door unlock and pushed it open as he urged Percy inside. The room's occupants stared at the newcomers until a man with a beard in a suit cleared his throat. He couldn't see the resemblance but immediately Percy can tell that he was the one known as Zeus Jupiter Grace, Jason's father. At some point in his life, Jason told Percy his dad preferred to be called Jupiter. Though other Olympians rather they call him Zeus just to annoy him.

The man held an aura of authority and the way his seat was elevated from the others confirmed his suspicion. "Father, this is Percy Jackson. We have witnessed the capture of an escapee from a few days ago. He and the escapee are... closer than acquaintances." He said. This caused a whispering among the other people in the room. Percy looked at each one trying to find the man with green eyes. When his eyes landed them, he was startled to see him looking back already.

"And by escapee you mean..." Jupiter trailed off, leaning forward. His eyes were trained on Percy and that was an excuse for him to break off the staring contest he had with whom he wished to assume is his dad. The brunette took a deep breath and stared at the floor below him. "Nico di Angelo, sir." He announced. The room quieted and Percy shivered when he heard a sharp intake of breath. Presumably Hades.
