Percy Jackson has seen enough. He's been through enough. But after the battle of Gaea comes the last straw. As he walks onto Olympus, he doesn't realize how much his life will change.
I will be rewriting the final battle in Blood Of Olympus. Trials...

(This here is the Argo II. Imagine that the entire body is made from Celestial Bronze. The ballista and onagers on the ship fire Imperial Gold ammo. Festus is still there as the figurehead. The sail has an omega symbol on it because why not?)
As the Argo II lowered over Rome, I saw the true magnificence of the ship. It was truly beautiful. The hull and mast were celestial bronze. And it had a dragon figurehead. A DRAGON!! I was in awe. Terminus however didn't feel the same as I did.
Terminus: IMPOSSIBLE!! HOW DARE THESE GREEKS COME INTO MY CITY. HOW DARE THEY THINK THAT THEY CAN ATTACK US??
Percy: Shut the fuck up man. Seriously. I said that they won't attack willingly, and
I was cut off by cheering. I looked up to see a blonde-haired, blue-eyed kid walking down the plank.
Percy (whispering): Who is that?
Reyna (whispering): That's Jason Grace, son of Jupiter. The person whose position you stole.
Percy: Oh shit.
Jason: Hi, I'm Jason Grace, son of Jupiter. Praetor of the Twelfth Legion Fulminata, and Slayer of Krios.
I breeze past him as I see Annabeth walking down the plank. Her beautiful grey eyes light up, and her face softens a bit. We run towards each other, our arms outstretched and as soon as we get close,
Percy: Ow... That hurt Wise Girl
She judo-flipped me. That was brutal. Especially as I was slammed onto a concrete ground. The rest of the senators surge forward ready to attack Annabeth, but Reyna quickly stops them.
Jason: Uh hi. That's Annabeth, daughter of Athena. She doesn't usually judo flip people she meets. Then we have Piper, daughter of Aphrodite, and Leo, son of Hephaestus. Also, I see you replaced me, Reyna.
Even I knew that the last part came out a bit bitter.
Reyna: Well you were gone for 8 months. I was having enough trouble dealing with the camp by itself. Besides Percy saved us yesterday when he single-handedly fought Polybetes and dragged him away from the fight. He also brought back our standard and all the equipment that Micheal Varus lost in his expedition to Alaska. The entire legion is stocked, and ready for war. He also singlehandedly saved the 5th Cohort when they were surrounded in a field of monsters. By the way, did I mention that he did all this in a week? What exactly did you do in 14 years, Jason?
So I'm assuming that they didn't end on a good note. I'll have to ask Reyna about that later.
Jason: Oh. *turns to me* Nicely done man. I'm impressed. Many people died trying to bring that standard back for us. And you decked out the whole legion? Nice. Thanks for taking care of my camp.
Percy: No problem man. I'm glad that I could help. What's up with Camp Half-Blood?
Jason:Not much. My battle took place in the Wolf House. So it wasn't destroyed. No lives lost. Everyone over there was looking everywhere for you though. You are a fucking celebrity over there.
Percy: And you are not one here man. Sorry to say, I had no clue who you were.
Jason: Oh. I see.
So we continued talking for a while and discussing the logistics of the quest, and how it would work, and how Reyna would once again be in charge of running the whole camp when all of a sudden BOOM! Something exploded. I was shocked and pissed. Thankfully, I wasn't vaporized on the spot. This meant that this attack was willingly done by a member of the Argo II. However, it was coming from the Argo II. And the only one missing was
Annabeth: VALDEZ!!! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING YOU DUMB SHIT?
Leo had attacked New Rome. The senators were furious. Octavian was smirking like he had Christmas had just come and he got what he wanted. I grabbed Annabeth's hand, who by the way was yelling profanities at Leo in greek, and ran for the plank. Thankfully it was down. However, Jason got struck by a brick when coming on board and was being carried by Piper. This fucking turned out great. I knocked Leo out and Annabeth immediately took control of the ship. However, we were absolutely fucked. The Graeco-Roman Alliance had gone to shit. Greece and Rome were once again at war. And this time Gaea was rising. As we sailed away, the severity of the situation that we were in just struck me. And I collapsed to the ground and start crying, realizing that my second home and my second family was going to die. And that there was absolutely nothing that I could do to save them. I was truly helpless.
So I know that I said I would release 2 updates today but I am exhausted after going on a 10-mile run. So I'll only be uploading this one today. Also sorry that it is much shorter than the last two chapters have been. Once again I'm just beat.
