***SLIGHTLY IMPORTANT***
Just so we're on the same page (sorry couldn't resist, the pun was neccessary for some reason) this chapter starts in the time before Thanos's army is called back. So technically I should have posted this chapter before the previous one, but oh well? (Sorry if I don't make any sense at ALL).
Percy P.O.V.
I had just been fighting my merry way through the hord of monsters and creatures in a wonderful rhythm of slash, stab and dodge, broken by the occasional flip in the air (Black Jack likes to try and keep things interesting) when a familiar set of golden eyes caught my own eyes. I faltered for a moment. A rough harpy took that as an invitation to scrap her long dirty claws along my back, trying to get to my neck. So I took that as an invitation to turn her into monster dust.
I looked back at the place where I had spotted the golden eyes, surely it couldn't have been him. He couldn't possibly have reformed that quickly, right?
I hate it when I'm wrong.
The familiar cold feeling of time slowing down engulfed me. The next moment the golden eyes were right infront of me.
"Miss me?" his croaky, but some how sickly sweet voice purred. I felt my face harden and a scowl forming. "I must say, Perseus, you've had quite the, how do they say? Glow up, yes, yes, that's it. I almost didn't recognize you." I know I've grown quite a bit over the past year or so, I also know that I've acquired the wolf stare from my time with Lupa. Other than that, I'm not really sure what he meant.
All around me I heard mutters and non-human sounds coming from allies and enemies around me. I caught a 'That's Kronos, I can't believe he's back!' and a 'This should be fun to watch, mabye we can finally get rid of that sea spawn' the first comment obviously came from a concerned demigod and the second an excited monster.
"Yeah well, nevermind me, Grand daddy, look at you! A new body, wow!" I said in a sarcasticly enthusiastic voice "What a shame you can't get rid of those ghastly golden eyes of yours, though. They seem to be following you everywhere!" His new body is one of an alien, I assume. He clearly had help getting out of the pit then. Its purple skin, thick black hair and leathery wings made it look like a oversized bat. It's face was definitely ugly enough the compete with Smelly Gabe.
"Oh, you mean this old thing? It's only temporary, but its got its perks," he said, his voice no longer sweet, but filled with venom and hate. "Now what I really want to know," an evil grin spread across his face, his voice now became innocent as a newborn," is why you never came to say hello to me during your trip to Tartarus? I mean, you chatted with Hyperion and I heard you befriended Iapetus, what a traitor, but you never came to say hello to me. That really did hurt." He said in false pain. I grimaced at the memory of that place and at the memory of Bob or Iapetus and Damasen, my friends who I abandoned in the pit. Kronos seemingly happy with my reaction, gave a cruel, heartless laugh.
Everything and everyone around me faded away, untill it was, once again, only Kronos and I. He took so much from me. My childhood, my friends, and a big part of my sanity.
Attack, Black Jack, attack! I said through my horse telepathy. Black Jack, probaly remembering how he was held captive on the Princess Andromeda didn't hold back, he charged at Kronos in the air. At about 2 feet away from Kronos, Black Jack froze, along with time. I am more used to the time freezing trick Kronos has played on me way too much. I jumped of Black Jack's back and onto Kronos who was flapping his bat-like wings furiously.
"Aargh!" A yelp of pain left my mouth once I touched him. As I started to fall and time sped up again, I heard Kronos say, his voice cruel and a full of hate,
"Fun fact about this body, its skin is acid to humans, including feeble demigods like you."
I fell to the ground, Black Jack catching me just in time. "Thanks," I breathed onto his warm mane.
No problem, boss. Now, what's the plan on the subject of killing this maniac?
"I need you to get me to open ground, far away from everyone else, make sure Kronos follows us there," I said my voice sounding hard and cold. I looked back at my squad then, making sure they could hear me over the roar of the battle, I said,"Stay here." And then Black Jack sped off.
Are you tense yet? No? Ok, don't mind me then...
ENJOY LIFE!!!
