Warning: it's gets a bit aggressive during this chapter, if you can't handle a bit of gore then I'm sorry.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Monsters and aliens alike were causing chaos, but not as much as three certain teens. Nico the son of Hades was literally raising hell wherever he went. Skeletons upon skeletons rose up from the ground to aid the Ghost King. Thalia the daughter of Zeus was calling down massive bolts of thunder that rivaled her father's in sheer power and destructiveness. Overall though, Percy the son of Poseidon was the most horrifying. Everywhere he went the onslaught of monsters was lessened dramatically. He fought with everything he had, overwhelming any threat and this was before he used his powers. Finally he called the ocean to him, yes, the entire ocean and swamped the entire enemy army. Obviously he send all the pure ocean water back with an apology note to the sea life that he stole the water from, and then he continued to fight.

The magicians were fairing pretty well even though they had never fought monsters of Greek origin before, same goes for the vikings. All in all, everything was going well, until it wasn't.

A loud scream could be heard closest to Thanos and Tartarus. They had caught someone. Percy searched for who it was, unbridled rage coursed through him as he saw the look of horror in Thalia's eyes as a gigantic axe was imbedded into her chest by the purple grape boi. Thanos tossed her body forward with a challenge in his eyes. Time seemed to stop for what seemed like years, Percy would never back down. Just as he was about to whisk Thalia away in the hopes of saving her somehow, Tartarus swung his mighty sword and lopped off Thalias head.

Percy was covered in the blood of his cousin. He couldn't take it. Ever since the deaths of the seven his sanity was slowly chipped away, little by little. Nico and Thalia had been his only saving grace, and now one of them was dead. "I'm sorry Annabeth," Percy gently set Thalias corpse down, "I'm going to have to break that promise I made." Percy stood up, no longer was he the carefree clumsy Kelp Head. He had gone into battle mode, his casual light-hearted demeanor was replaced with a steely determination and hatred that only came out when he fought. This version of Percy scared the campers, back when they fought Kronos, this Percy appeared and everyone could only feel relieved that he was on their side. The same thing happened now only Percy was way stronger than before.

Percy went into the darkest part of his mind and unlocked the power he had pushed away for Annabeth. 'After the war is finished I'll repent. This is the only way to win.' These thoughts swarmed Percy's already crowded mind. Percy gripped Riptide in his right hand and made a fist with his left, "Both of you bastards are dead." Percy spoke with so much authority that Tartarus and Thanos both couldn't help but take a step back. They were witnessing the dark side of Perseus Jackson.

The campers, Avengers, magicians and vikings all backed away, they were smart enough to realize what was going on. Those who didn't were knocked out and dragged away. No one wanted to get in Percy's way when he was angry, and Percy was pissed.

"What are you doing! Kill him already," Tartarus pushed a few monsters forward then glared at the rest. It was now Percy versus two thousand and some monsters and aliens. Percy simply raised his arm above his head and clenched his hand into a fist. Almost immediately the monsters turned to dust and the aliens turned into purple blemeshes on the ground. He had used their own blood against them. Since most things had at least a little bit of water in them, Percy was able to grasp that little bit of water and wreak havoc on the not so poor and not so innocent souls of his enemies.

It was now Percy versus Thanos and Tartarus. It was clear to all companies present that Tartarus and Thanos were right royally fucked. Percy charged in with his battle hardened mind with only one thought, 'Kill them, make them suffer like you did.' Now, Thanos is a "titan" and Tartarus is a primordial, but they are not immune to fear. This was the first time either of them had felt fear and ironically it scared them even more. Thanos could barely move, actually he couldn't move, Percy had controlled the water surrounding Thanos to trap him. In one swift and skilled motion Percy sliced Thanos' head off. Percy didn't waste a second and used the shock of Thanos dying to attack Tartarus.

Tartarus was not as weak as Thanos though and so they fought tirelessly. Tartarus took an opportunity to throw a knife with deadly accuracy, not at Percy, but at Nico. It hit dead center between Nico's eyes and he dropped. Nico was dead, Tartarus done fucked up. Whatever little piece of sanity Percy had been clinging to, disappeared. With a scream of rage Percy lunged toward Tartarus and wrapped his hands around the primordials throat. Then he squeezed, hard. So hard in fact that Percy crushed Tartarus' throat into oblivion. Now the primordial couldn't speak, but it wasn't enough, not for Percy. With a simple flick of the son of the sea gods hand, Tartarus exploded into millions of tiny little pieces. After making sure the primordial was dead and gone, Percy collapsed into a pile of tears. The two people who had experienced what he had and helped him through it were now dead.

He didn't notice the cheers that surrounded him, nor the pitiful looks thrown his way. He simply sat by the bodies of Thalia Grace and Nico Di Angelo. Two people who should have lived through this war. Two people who should have been alive unlike Percy. He was approached by the gods once more, "Perseus Jackson, as a thanks for your help in this war we will grant you one wish as long as it is within our power." Zeus stared down at Percy, not even giving a second glance to his dead daughter. Percy started laughing, it was the laugh of a broken man, someone who had lost everything and had no reason to stay. He spoke two simple words.

"Kill me."

Oops I didn't plan on killing them but the story had a mind of its own!

This is the last chapter, the end.

This is probably the chapter I am most proud of as well.

I plan on revising the entire story, but that will come later.

I will write an epilogue if you guys want, only if you guys want it.

Other than that, thanks to all of you who stuck with me to the end.

Goodbye
