The Curse Of Power

Part 19

Hestia POV (bet you weren't expecting that)

After Percy vapour travelled away, there was silence in the camp. Then Annabeth asked the question people were too scared to ask. "What do we do now. The prophecy said that without him we would lose. I also don't think that the camp can survive another attack."
"We will figure something out"Zeus announced before he and the rest of the gods (me included) flashed to Olympus. "This is bad news. Percy was the only thing that stood in the way of Camp Half Blood and destruction" stated Athena. "The camp morale is also down and they have almost no hope whatsoever."said Apollo sadly. "On even worse news , the enemy had released Typhon from its prison and I cannot help as there is war in my kingdom" announced Poseidon. Zeus was deep in thought for a while before he came up with an idea. "The god will fight Typhon and hope that defeating him shall help with the camp morale" Zeus announced as he got up and grabbed his master bolt. All the gods left the throne room except me as I tensed to the Hearth. Poseidon went to defend his kingdom from oncoming attacks and the rest of the gods went off to fight typhoon. I knew it would be almost impossible to stop Typhon without the help of Poseidon. I needed the help of someone and that someone was going to not like it.

I flashed to the Brooklyn House. When I flashed in, magicians grabbed staffs and wands. They pointed their weapons at me until Percy walked up and told them to lower their weapons.
"Lady Hestia" he said bowing. "To what do I owe the pleasure?"he asked. "The gods are currently attacking Typhon and your father won't be there to help" I said and I watched as his eye started to twitch.
"And why should I help the gods that betrayed me twice?" He asked.
"Because without you, the greeks will die along with everyone you love. Typhon will also attack the Egyptians once he is done with the Greeks and the Romans" I stated sadly. I knew the fates were cruel but they targeted this young hero too much.
I saw him sigh and have an internal conflict before muttering "stupid fatal flaw" mostly too himself. He looked up at me and asked for 5 minutes. I agreed and he went to Zeus knows where.

Percy POV

Lady Hestia flashed into the room and I saw all the initiates at Brooklyn House draw their weapons and point it at the goddess. I told them to stand down and talked to Hestia. My eye twitched as she told me about the gods predicament. I had an internal battle with myself. The Greeks betrayed me and Zeus tried to kill my sister but I knew I had to help and would help because my fatal flaw was loyalty. I asked Hestia for 5 minutes to get ready and she agreed.

I looked for Elliot who was in my room on the bed reading (she didn't have dyslexia). I told her where I was going. She looked at me like I was stupid and then hugged me and made me promise that I would be safe. I did and went back to lady Hestia who was waiting just where I left her.
"Let's go" I said before she smiled and flashed me to an area near the battlefield.

The sky was dark and the wind blew even the biggest of trees away. I saw Typhon who was the size of 3 empire state buildings. To mortals, he looked like a freak storm while to demigods, he looked more or less humanoid from the waist up, but his legs were like the bodies of boa constrictors. On each hand, he had a hundred fingers tipped with red-eyed serpent heads. He had massive leathery wings and long matted hair that smelled like volcanic smoke. I didn't dare look at his face and risk going insane. The gods were trying to fight him. Keyword trying. Zeus's master bolt only made him stagger, Ares might as well have been fighting a mountain, Artemis's and Apollo's arrows didn't even make him flinch. I saw a being with a bazuka type gun and it blasted out a beam of energy which meant George and Martha were in Lazer mode. Dionysus and Demeter tried to grow trees on its legs to slow it down, not working. I was trying to think of a plan when Nephthys spoke in my mind.
"Join with me Percy. I could help you with this" she said and I couldn't think of anything else so I agreed.

3rd person POV

The gods were using all their energy against Typhon and it was barely slowing him down. Suddenly all the gods stopped as they felt the presence of an Egyptian god. Even Typhon stopped his rampage and looked.around confused. Then they saw Percy Jackson grow until about one tenth the size of Typhon and then a flowing avatar surrounded him lifting him off the ground. Before the gods could react, Percy rushed the monster.

Percy POV

I growed to my full size and then summoned the power of Nephthys. I felt power surge through me and I summoned my avatar. I rose in the glowing green warrior until I was about the size of Typhon. I felt immense pain in my body from using this much magic. I shrugged off the pain and flicked my hands. The avatar copied my movements and 2 glowing green swords appeared in its hands. I rushed Typhon with inhuman speeds for someone of this size. Of the way to Typhon, I summoned chains of water which held him for about 2 seconds before he broke free but I had just enough time to close the distance and slash him directly in the face. I continued slashing and jabbing. This was going surprising well. The glowing blades could actually penetrate Typhon's skin.

Then suddenly Typhon backed up and blew fire at me. My avatar wasn't affected but the heat of the flame could be felt on the inside and I stumbled backwards to get away from the heat. Then Typhon swung his tail and hit me directly in the chest sending me and my avatar flying. I groaned on the ground. I was starting to see black spots. I noticed Typhon slowly making his way towards me and the gods were just staring. I summoned a word of power Khefa meaning fist.

A glowing blue fist appeared the size of a football stadium and sucker punched Typhon away. The gods came out of their shock and started attacking Typhon. I stood up and nearly fell down. Black sloots danced before my eyes. I had already used too much magic. I tapped into Nephthys's powers more and then charged at Typhon. The gods weapons still had no effect on Typhon. He threw a few hurricanes at me and I sliced through them with my sword. With one final swing, I decapitated Typhon. I heard Nephthys in my head.
"You did it Percy"she said
I was about to reply when my whole body was racked in pain before giving away to comforting darkness
