Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Unlimited Blade Works

Chapter 2: Archer vs Rider

Thalia was growing tired. She and her fellow Hunters have been fighting for the past 6 hours nonstop. She pushed her spear into a hellhound, before summoning a bolt of lightning and struck a cyclops. Sending both monsters to the Pit.

"The daughter of Zeus," a female monster stated, the sound of hissing snakes coming from her head. "Tell me, where is the son of Poseidon?"

"Go to hell," Thalia told Medusa. "I won't tell you where he is!"

"You don't have to."

A tall man with green eyes that have steel grey in them and black hair with white tips walked forward. He had a dark blue sleeveless shirt on with a long sleeved a black body armor made from chaos silver, which consisted of a black tight and sleeveless shirt with silver accents which outlined his muscles and a metal plate on his collar, and black pants that had two black straps on his thighs, and another two strapped around his shins separate from each other. His shoes were black with metal plates, which appear to be attached to his trousers. His red coat is a type of d which are two separate sleeves connected by a metal plate at the back which covered his arms and was cut off showing his upper torso and midriff, and had a separate red open skirt which ended above his shins with the top fashioned and tied with an agemaki knot, covered by a silver metal plate.

"Because I am right here."

"P-Percy?" Thalia's eyes went wide at seeing Percy's clothing and his new looks. "What happened to you?"

"Not now Lancer," Medusa sneered. "This is between Rider and Archer."

Percy's eyes narrowed.

"So you are Rider," the son of Poseidon said, his voice cold and sharp as steel. "Tell me Rider, what are you going to do?"

"I will kill you and then find Saber and that golden bastard," Medusa replied casually.

"I can't let you do that," Percy told her. "For a few reasons, but the main one is this: I will not let you harm Saber as long as I live."

Medusa smirked.

"We'll see about that, Archer," Medusa replied, before a dagger appeared in her hand.

"Before we begin," Percy started. "What if I told you that you could get your humanity back?"

This stopped Medusa.

"What do you mean Archer?" she asked. "No one, not even Kronos can undo my curse!"

"What about the one who reincarnated us?" Percy asked, looking a bit smug.

Medusa's eyes widen, as did everyone else's when they heard him speak.

"S-She would do that?" Medusa asked, her eyes wide. "She would help me... No. Why would she waste her time on us? She and Zelretch brought us here for entertainment, Archer, nothing else."

Percy sighed.

"That they did," Percy agreed. "That they did."

Two swords then appeared in his hands. One was white and the other black, but both were of Chinese design. These were the married swords: Kanshou and Bakuya.

"Are you ready, Rider?" Percy asked as he brandished both his blades.

Medusa smirked and the sound of chains rattling resounded throughout the area.

"Yes I am Archer," Medusa spat.

"Thalia," Percy began his eyes not leaving Medusa. "Leave. Take the Hunters and go."

"But Percy-"

"Now Thalia!" Percy shouted at her.

Thalia looked at her cousin in shock.
