This is a sequel to my story "Join Us - A Pirates Life is Best". I highly recommend reading that story first, as it explains everything that leads up to the beginning of this one. ------------ At the end of the great battle on Kronos' island, our heroes are left in a sticky situation, with the Royal Navy approaching. In no shape to take them on, just after fighting Kronos' army, the crew must put their trust in Jason, but is that trust misplaced? And what of the information that King Zeus was working with Kronos? Kronos was one thing, but now our heroes may be faced with the entire Navy... ------------ Once again, almost all of these characters belong to Rick Riordan, and this story has no semblance of historical accuracy, so don't complain about stuff like that. TW: Swearing in general, further TW's will be mentioned in the beginning of the chapter.

*NOW ON AO3 AS WELL* REWRITTEN VERSION 2025 (old version can still be found in My Stories) *Future chapters under major plot hole construction, irregular update (As of August 21, 2025)* Seven years ago, she was a runaway determined to put Gotham City behind her. Seven years later, she returned, a new threat has fallen on the mortal world, and it is up to her and her allies to stop it. The world didn't know her as Persephone Jackson, the adopted daughter of Bruce Wayne; nor do they know her as Nightingale, the Girl Wonder, the protege to the Dark Knight, along with Robin. She's now known as Riptide, an agent from the Celestial Division of the Agent of Olympus - a newly emerged organization that specializes in dealing with a certain new kind of 'vermin'. And although she had long put her unfortunate past behind her, it seems that the past wasn't quite done with her just yet... (Cover generated by AI, cause I can't draw for the life of me)

They all knew Percy Jackson. Powerful, strong, a brilliant leader- but also kind. Bright, funny, compassionate. The weight of the world rested on his shoulders- but there's a reason that it was Atlas' job. Percy was forced upon heroics since he was twelve years old, and that made him stronger- but it was also slowly breaking him down. The weight, the pressure, it was slowly but surely starting to break him down- but he continued to stand tall. Stood for those who needed him. His friends. The seven. Nico. Thalia. Reyna. Will. All to lead them on. If he were to break, as the leader, so would they. But that was more of a second priority. Percy Jackson was greedy, he wanted power. He didn't want it for the feeling, not the pride. He wanted it so he could save his friends when he needed him most. He lost Luke. He lost Bianca. He lost everyone else- he wouldn't lose anyone else.

My soul was torn out of my body. My heart was cut out from my chest. My love was forced away from my heart. My compasion was cut away from my love. Every emotion, torn out of me. Until they found me. My soul was replaced with that of harshness. My heart replaces of that of a demon. My love replaced with cruelty. My compasion replaces with anger. They call themselves the Seven Deadly Sins, my new family.

The demigod world is in chaos. Everyone is training to become heroes, but no one wants to step up and save the world from Ouranos' rising force - or, no one's allowed to, at least. Lily Jackson is anxious to fight. She knows that her destiny lies within the battle, but can she step up and take the lead? Ethan Jackson is living a life in the past. Ever since his best friend Silena died, he's been distant and broken. Can he put the past behind him? But their friends are here to help. Maria, Emily, Hayley, Noah, Mia and Thomas are here to fight this war alongside Lily and Ethan, and they're prepared to go all out.
