Champion of Chaos

Chapter 9

Luke POV

We were all gathered around on our thrones. Well not all of us. Jess and Percy weren't here yet. Even Chaos is here! I mean, Percy is always late, but Jess? OMG, do you think they? No, they couldn't, could they? I looked around shooting glances at my friends. I sent an MM (Mind Message).

'Guys, I know Percy is always late, but Jess too? What do you think happened?'

Nico replied ' I really don't care what happened, as long as they got together, this has been a painful two years.' Everyone agreed. 

'Oh my...' Thalia said.

I turned around and saw the sight. It was Percy, and he had bags under his eyes, wrinkled clothes, and really messed up hair. And that is saying something, cause his hair is always messed up. He was blushing crimson at the fact of everyone staring at him. 

"Percy... my man!" I yelled. I knew it! Over the past two years Percy, Nico, Thalia, and I have become inseparable, though we are still really close to the rest of the team. If it was possible, he became even redder. Jess came in looking the same as Percy, blushing red, but still smiling. They had a private mind conversation, and both of them laughed at the end of it. 

Chaos cleared his throat to get their attention, and Percy sent a glare his way. His glares can be so scary, sometimes Chaos shrinks down under them. 

"I have some, uh, bad news. End is rising, and he has some pretty powerful allies. We are going to need you guys." There goes our month vacation. "And, ah, some of you might not like the location." Over the two years, Percy has gotten remarkably smarter. With the getting adopted by Chaos and receiving his blessing, he lost his dyslexia, so he read, a TON. He could challenge Annabitch to a competition. Jess is still the smartest on the team though, so when it comes to strategizing, it is usually left up to Percy, Jess, and Raze. I'm getting off track, sorry, you know ADHD. Anyway, I have a feeling Percy knew where we were going, and the look on his face was enough to paralyze me in fear.

Percy POV

Earth. That hellhole. If we took the humans and the nice gods off that planet, I would let them burn, no matter how much I would want to kick End's and Tartarus's ass. I knew by the look I had on my face that people were scared of me. When I get angry, it is no laughing matter. I have exploded galaxies before, but I make sure they are uninhabited. I slowly looked over at Chaos.

"And where exactly is the location of this battle, milord?" I asked, through gritted teeth. You could practically feel the fear radiating off of him. His eyes were wide, face pale, and beads of sweat were among the clear features on his face.

"I-I'm sorry, Percy," His voice cracked. "B-but if they win, there might be n-no stopping them," I swear, from the tone of his voice, from the look he was giving me and his posture, I thought he was going to piss himself. I knew I had to take the anger down a notch, but I just couldn't. After everything they did, we need to save them? 

Jess put her hand on my arm and rubbed it up and down. She looked up at me, a sad, almost pleading look in her eyes, but that was enough, cause I breathed out a sigh and sat back down, while Jess did the same, and played her head on my shoulder. Everyone was staring, astounded. No one could calm me down. Chaos visibly relaxed. Jess whispered in my ear, "I had fun last night, and even though today didn't have a great start, I love being your girlfriend." That was enough to cheer me up and put a smile on my face. Nico, who was sitting to my left heard, and his eyes went wide. Chaos, who was on the right also heard, and his eyes widened, but in surprise this time, not fear. Luke, catching the drift, yelled out "YEAH! MY MAN!" 

And with that everyone knew. Ignoring their astounded faces, I turned to Jess, who's head was still on my shoulder. "Nice job." She smiled, and kissed my cheek, and went back to my shoulder and off to sleep.

"When do we leave?" I asked Chaos, trying to change the subject.

It took him a minute to get out of his astonishment. He shook his head, almost like a dog, and said "Tomorrow, so go pack."

I picked Jess up bridal style and carried her to our room. I began to pack, and when I finished I  started to pack her stuff. She woke up, walked over to me, and sat in my lap, facing me. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and her legs around my waist, while resting the side of her head on my shoulder, and dozed off once again. I wanted to sleep too, so I took off my shoes and brought her over to the bed, lied her down, and began to sleep as I brought her close to me.

(This is his bow, but a different colorway. The brown is supposed to be the black metal, and the silver is supposed to be a bit bluer, like the color in the background. Actually, think of the color in the background for all of the blades and weaponry, but shinier.)
