Dean's POV:
This feels like deja-vu. Leo was sitting in the back seat of the impala with his friends as they talked and cried. Jason was staring at his hands still speckled in the godly icor as he tried to keep his tears from spilling over, Piper was hiding her face but it was pretty clear she was crying, and Leo was talking to them quietly. He was explaining his encounter with Zelus oh so long ago, and they listened wordlessly. Partly, I think from shock and partly because they were finally getting the answer to the question of why he hadn't come back to them. It reminded me a lot of the night Leo cut ties, and not just because he was recounting the story. But all Sam, Cas, and me could do was listen. This was something they would only be able to hear from Leo. Despite all the years of separation, they still trusted him as if he had only left yesterday.
"So I decided not to come back to camp," Leo finished. "And use my powers as sparingly as possible. Though the years have taught me to not limit them to the point not using them gets me hurt. That one was hard learned."
"I just can't--" Jason pulled his glasses off with shaking hands. "I'm gonna be sick."
"And all gods are like that?" Piper's voice surprisingly wasn't shaking too bad.
"Well," Leo glanced at me in the rear view mirror. "Here's where it's starting to get messy. Remember Chance mentioned that she got kidnapped?"
"Yeah," Jason wiped at his eyes, his voice stabilizing some. "By Jupiter worshipers?"
"They thought they were worshiping Jupiter anyway," Leo gave me another glance. He has to stop doing that. "It wasn't though. We figured out he was some demon, who could hide the fact he was a demon almost perfectly."
"What gave him away?" Piper sniffed.
"Well," Leo seemed nervous so I spoke up.
"Want us to do this bit?"
"Yeah," Leo relaxed a bit. "If you don't mind."
"You weren't there," I smirked. "A while back, long while back, Sammy and I met a guy who repeatedly died on us but always came back. Through some amnesia non-sense we found out he was the titan Prometheus."
"Prometheus?" Piper glanced at Jason. "Didn't Percy say he was involved in the titan war?"
"I think so," Jason frowned. "I wasn't in New York during that."
"You were on the other coast."
"Any way," I cut over them. "Turns out he kept dying like that because of a curse Zeus placed on him for giving humans fire. So we summoned Zeus to try and convince him to break the curse."
"Why would you do that?" Piper folded her arms across her chest. "Prometheus was working with the titans to destroy the mortal world in the last titan war."
"Well Prometheus had a son with a nice mortal lady and the son had inherited Prometheus's curse," I sighed, of course I'd known Prometheus had a rap, but Zeus might have mentioned the war thing before we thought he was a total douche. "We were doing it more for the son's sake. But when Zeus showed up he brought someone with him; Artemis."
"She must have made short work of Prometheus," Jason chuckled. "My sister is one of her hunters."
"Actually," Sam finally decided to contribute. "There's a bit of a twist ending."
"How so?" Piper narrowed her eyes at us.
"Artemis turned on Zeus," I had to pause as Leo calmed his friends cries of outrage. "Let me finish! Jeez. See, all these years she'd been harboring a bit of a crush on Prometheus."
