The Final Prophecy

Nyx Kicks Some Ass

Guys this story hit 1k views! I know you all probably think that's nothing but this is the first story I have ever written (I started another but I started this first) so thanks so much guys really!

Annabeth POV

Now as much as I'd like to say that I bravely went into battle against Erebos, primordial of darkness, I can't. 

You can't blame me, really, a battle with a god is hard, a titan is even harder, but a primordial is nearly impossible.

The last primordial we went up against, involved Leo dying and I'm not exactly in the mood to go with that plan, considering I like my life.

I figured our best plan was to use brains rather than brawn. After all, that was how we got out of Nyx's grasp, whether she is on our side now or not.

"Erebos I would let us go if I were you," I said putting on a confident mask.

He chuckled, his deep laugh, echoing through the giant household.

Erebos had caught us when we were just about to get out of the basement via the stairs. We had just gotten to the bottom step when he appeared at the top of the stairway.

It soon became clear that he knew we were there the entire time and that he was just toying with us. I had a nagging feeling it was too easy and my fears turned out to be true.

"Tell me why should I let you go, as you say? Give me one reason?" He said amused.

"Well there's four of us and two are gods, so?" If I could make him think we could overpower him maybe he won't take the risk.

He put his hands up pretending they were scales and that he was measuring up the pros and cons, "I think that I will be alright. Demigods don't really count as a full person to fight. One of your gods is the god of beauty, which doesn't help in a battle and the other god is basically a demigod too with a power growth spurt."

I scowled at not being counted as a possible threat but I decided to leave it as I didn't want to anger the primordial. Percy didn't seem to think like me and decided to voice his frustration.

"Shut up Erebos, I'm not scared of the dark so you shouldn't be a problem."

Erebos growled.

Well, it seemed that Percy still had a knack for pissing off powerful immortals.

I decided to cut in before the argument escalated, "Ok so maybe we can't fight you but the entire Olympian council can and they are waiting for us right now."

"They don't care about demigods, Annabeth Chase, I thought you were smart enough to realise that?" Erebos said sounding almost sympathetic.

"But there isn't just demigods here, there are two gods and the council is waiting for us right now and they know exactly where we are. If they think anything is wrong they won't hesitate to show up." I said it mustering up all my confidence.

It was times like this I wished I had charmspeak like Piper.

But charmspeak or not, it seemed to work because when Erebos spoke his voice wavered slightly and he stepped back distancing himself from us.

"They won't come?" He said almost as if asking himself.

Just as I thought the plan was working and we might just get out, Erebos laughed once again, the fear leaving his eyes as if never there, because the fear was fake all along.

"You really think I'm scared, demigod? Your not so smart now are you a child of Athena, you cannot use your brain to get out of this one. No, there's no getting out of this. Even if the Olympians were waiting, gods are not a threat to me, few things are a threat to me."
