Champion of Chaos

Chapter 16

*From now on, when I don't label a chapter with a point of view, that means it is Percy's, but just this once, I'll do it.*

*Percy POV*

I woke up with a mess of brown hair on my chest. I smiled to myself, thinking about my life right about now. Aside from the war, I have a new family, a girlfriend that I love, a caring dad, and a home. Instead of going back to sleep, I sit there, playing with Jess's hair. 

Everything goes black.

*Time skip*

I feel like I got repeatedly punched in the head by the hulk. I woke up in a dark room, with a chair in front of me with a dark silhouette of a man on top of it. There were dark spots dancing around my eyes already. 

"Hello Omega," The man says mockingly. I had no strength to respond.

"I am sending a full-frontal attack on the western border of your camp in 10 days. I am flanking my forces directly behind you, sending my navy at you from the other side. Oceanus and his forces will be there to stop Poseidon and his forces from delaying the docking time of our navy. I know of your numbers. I will know of your plans. My numbers outnumber you and can outfight you. You will lose. I am End, one of the eldest primordials, the primordial of destruction and power, and the second most powerful being in the universe. You may be a powerful, young one, but you and your team combined are nowhere near being able to defeat us. Your welcome for the information, by the way. I wanted a bit of a challenge for myself. And if you don't believe me, I swear by the River Chaos, that the information I just shared about where my forces will be and when they will be there is true. Goodbye, nephew." The man wrapped himself in shadows tinted red, and disappeared.

I woke up, feeling as though not one minute passed since I had a visit with End, yet a bit tired. There wasn't that familiar weight on my chest anymore, so I squinted my eyes open, to see Jess sitting on a chair, her eyes puffy red holding on to my hand like it is her life source. My father stood in the corner of the room, his eyes stained red too, his hands shaking slightly. Someone gasped, and I turned my head to see the rest of my team sitting in other chairs surrounding my bed, no one as close as Jess. Some were asleep and some were drowsy. Luke's gasp woke up everybody, and drew my father's attention toward me, a smile creeping up his face. I turned, ready to comfort my girlfriend from whatever happened, but she was already on top of me, sobbing into my chest. It broke my heart to see her like this, so I lifted her up so her face was in the crook of my neck. She continued to sob and I gestured for the team to leave and whispered sweet nothings into her ear.

"What happened? How come you all were so worried?" 

"I was sleeping, and just started to wake up as you started to play with my hair, and then you started seizing, your eyes were pitch black and black foam with a hint of red started to come out of your mouth. I alerted the team, and your father brought you here. The seizing stopped, but you were out for a few hours. What happened?"

"I had a chat with my uncle, speaking of which, we need to hold a war council, first with the team, then with counselors."

*Time Skip*

I had just told Chaos and the team what Order and I discussed. Well, it was more of a one-sided discussion, but that is not the point. 

"I believe," Chaos spoke up, "for better understanding of what has and will happen, I must tell you a story, a family history if you will." 

"I have three siblings, Order, my sister, and End and Destruction, my two brothers. We didn;t just come from nothing, though. Our father, Void, created us from nothing. It used a lot of his strength, so during the duration of our childhood, Void was weak. He looked frail, like an old man. Everyone has an archenemy. My father was Bane. Like the Giants, who are 'The Banes of Olympus'. They got that name for the original archenemy, the primordial of Evil. My father was the primordial of Good and the Void, and he was the eldest primordial. While we were young, Bane attacked. My father was still frail, so we helped in the fight, though we were of very little use. My father had used himself as a bomb, sacrificing himself to save all of us. He exploded, along with Bane, and created what is known to humans as the 'Big Bang'. In that blast, we inherited powers. Order and I inherited a small fraction of our father's powers, while End and Destruction inherited all of Bane's, including his evil. We knew they were already evil before, but this pushed them over the limit. Order and I decided to run the Universe together, but End and Destruction were envious and jealous and tried to take and destroy everything we created and nurtured. We threw them in cells, separately, but still visited from time to time. Running a universe isn't easy though, so our visits dwindled. They grew angry and bitter, truly embracing the evil side they were born to oppose us with. Destruction broke out of his cage, due to us being weaker, and attempted to fight and kill Order and take her powers. Order was a bit weaker than me but still stronger than Destruction. He caught her off guard, and they battled, I was forbidden to help because unless engaging another primordial in a one on one battle, I cannot fight. If a primordial attempts to fight another primordial, and the other primordial fights back, then it becomes a duel, winner takes all. If the other primordial does not defend himself in a fight it is forbidden for the attacker to continue. Order acter by instinct, and defended herself. She did what my father did, and sadly, died. This time though, she used every single ounce of her power to not only overload Destruction's power but to cancel it out. Practically erasing both from existence. Order created the realm of the faded, where she rules over now. Destruction was erased from existence, not even having a soul to enter the realm of which my love guards. Yes, I developed some feelings toward my companion, she did too, but she died too quickly for us to act on it. Following their deaths, I increased the strength of the cell which held my brother and time went on which led us to this day. As you said, End is the primordial of destruction. It is such a big title that both of them shared it, just like Order and I, though I obtained most of it. When she passed, I got the rest of her Creation powers and End got the rest of Destruction's destruction powers. I'll explain the rest later."
