Fighting Ares and the birth of Percy

It's been 50 years since I had decided to travel to the Percy Jackson universe, I was inserted in 1943, right in the middle of WW2 and I gotta say Luke was kinda right about the Greek gods.

They started and influenced that war due to selfish reasons, and when their children got out of control they did nothing to stop it as innocent lives were caught in the crossfire.

I did the best I could to alleviate the human suffering such as freeing Jews from Nazi camps, healing the sick, saving people from the brink of death, and weakening godly influence during the war.

I had to be really discreet about my actions in this world not because of the Greek gods, no because I didn't want to start a chain reaction that would lead to the erase of this universe.

Think of this universe as some sort of computer program, in that program exists some sort of firewall or system that keeps that universe protected and in check.

People like me, or foreign code in this instance that are able to bypass that firewall are like ticking time bombs, that the more we interfere or stay in that universe the higher the risk of that universe collapsing.

I still had the normal standard power for an angel and capabilities, however the more I use my more stronger and versatile powers like changing the fabric of reality and time, the more closer that world gets to becoming erased.

(Imagine the power of the Thanos snap, but instead of half of the planet, all timelines and existence gets erased with zero chance of coming back.)

And, unlike the other times we're I could assimilate with the angels or some faith, the angels in this universe aren't that strong compared to the supernatural version.

There more like the angels from Lucifer TV show, and their presence isn't all that well-known almost none existent compared to others.

So I decided to make a name for myself in both the godly and mortal realms, after doing a few favors and earning some trust, I managed to become friends with Apollo, Hermes, Hestia, Hades, Persephone, Demeter, and even got Artemis to tolerate me.

But, I'm pretty sure that all changed when Artemis ratted me out to Olympus, where Zeus in his paranoid mind wanted me to submit to his rule and to kill me if I was a threat to him.

Athena, Ares, and Artemis were sent out to find and capture me to stand before Olympus, and one thing led to another and I make it clear that I was stronger than them and would retaliate if threatened.

(Backstory timeline August 6, 1945)

I was eating sushi at a restaurant in Hiroshima when I sensed the aura of three gods entering the restaurant and standing behind me.

"Well, it's about time that these guys finally found me, I had hoped that with Olympus' best tracker and strategist, they would find me much quicker but I guess not." I drank a sip from my cup of sake and chuckled to myself.

"Hey, dipshit you made us chase you all across the damn country, and you're here enjoying a cup of Sake? Do you know who we are and what we can do? Ares had a bloodthirsty look in his eyes as he pointed his sword at my neck.

"Listen here, you have two options going forward one, you come with us and swear loyalty to Olympus, or two, you die right here pick your decision." Athena looked at me with her silver eyes as if she already had a plan to defeat me.

"Pfft! This is so funny, I can't believe that little children think that they have the power to make me obey, listen while I still feel merciful tell your man-child of a king, that for all of his noise he is not even worthy to wash my feet, much less order me around." I made a silent order to all the humans nearby to evacuate as I closed my eyes, and caught ares sword with two fingers.

"Really, you come to kill me but you bring nothing but a toothpick? And they call you the god of war. " I grabbed chopsticks from a nearby table and flung Ares out of the restaurant.

I jumped from my seat, as Artemis tried to strike me with her silver daggers, the two of us fought as I easily read her movements and countered all of her attacks with the pair of chopsticks.

"Geez, I thought that these guys had some sort of plan, but I guess all three of them underestimated my strength and thought this would be easy." Anoyed at that fact they were still looking down at me, I decided to not hold back anymore.

I released 30% of my aura, and both Artemis and Athena were shocked at the sheer pressure that I was able to produce from my body."

The air was hot and suffocating, any humans that were still nearby were passing out or forming at the mouth as if they were experiencing a seizure, even the two gods were having a hard time focusing due to the pressure.

(Think Yamamoto spiritual pressure from bleach)

"Leave! I don't have the patience to teach mere infants like the both of you how to breathe."

I pulled back my pressure and watched with disinterest as Athena and Artemis fell to the ground, the ground began to shake as Ares came in a ball of fire and looked like he was ready for a real fight.

I summoned a katana from my pocket dimension that Amaterasu had given to me, it's Saya was crafted with hardwood and had a soothing aura emitted from it, while the sword had the design of lightning with a golden hue on the tip of the sword.

The entire sword had a feeling of elegance, nobility, precision, and power that even Ares stared at the sword with awe and respect.

"That's quite the sword you got there brat, that will be quite the trophy after I take your head for all the trouble." Ares had a sadistic grin on his face as skeleton warriors came from the ground armed with spears and shields.

I didn't even reply, as I knew that he was still looking down at me with this attack, I crouched down and dashed forward while unsheathing the katana with blinding speed.

By the time I had sheathed the katana back in its Saya, all the skeleton warriors were decapitated as the only sign was small flickers of yellow lightning on the ground.

There was a feeling of danger in the air as both mine and Ares's aura clashed with each other as if a tiger and a lion were fighting.

Ares made a loud roar as he charged into battle as our swords clashed with each other.

Every strike of lightning pummeled the ground, and the longer the fight went on the Angier Ares became, it was getting closer to a stalemate and I was preparing for a final attack.

"You know, I actually believe in killing the messager because it sends a message, so Ares if you survive this tell Zeus that if he tries to make me his servant, let this be a reminder about my power."

I stepped back from Ares, as I poured all the energy that I had collected during the fight into the scabbard, time started to slow down as every single god, human, and monster sensed a change in the world.

For the first time, Ares' confidence fell, as he had a worried expression on his face as he covered himself with his shield.

I unsheath my sword, and a beam of UV light burst forth, faster than any of the gods could see before they all disappeared with the smell of ozone in the air.

"So, much destruction in one place, it looks like a bomb exploded in this area, wait it's 8:16 right now, which means...."

I looked up at the sky and sure enough, a nuclear bomb was fast approaching my destination, I sighed as this was going to be the second time a nuke was dropped on me.

(Backstory end)

After that spat with the gods, Olympus wanted me to be found and captured so I could be put on trial, I went incognito for a while and Interacted with demigods.

I tried to change a few things in the story like the death of Thaila, however that failed when a few months after I got her to camp half-blood, she randomly got sick and eventually became a tree.

Now it was August 18th, 1993, and I was standing on the roof of a nearby cabin at Montauk, as Sally Jackson was sitting on the beach with Poseidon, as he rubbed Sally's pregnant belly.

"Sally, please you must change your mind about this, once Zeus finds out that I broke the oath, both Perseus and your life will be in danger." Poseidon furrowed his brow in worry as the sky became darker with the mention of Zeus.

"Poseidon, I have told you many times that I don't belong in the sea with you, but I have a friend who can help me protect Percy from your brother, his name is Isaiel, and he claims that with his magic Zeus won't be able to find our son." 

Poseidon's expression became darker with the mention of my name, probably because he doesn't trust me and doesn't know who I am, I sent out an energy signal and Poseidon glanced in my direction before talking to Sally about Camp half-blood and bringing Percy there as a means of protection.

when the two of them finished talking, Poseidon disappeared from Sally's sight and reappeared in front of me, before I could say anything Poseidon stabbed me with his trident and glared at me with a dark look in his eye.

"What are you? And what is your intention with Sally and my son? Poseidon began twisting the trident, as I showed no reaction to what was going on.

"Peace Sea God, I have no sinister intent with either one of them and only wish to protect the both of them and as for what I am, well you know that names have power so let's say I'm a guardian angel of sorts," I answered with a voice that shown no emotion as if I didn't have a trident in my ribcage.

"Do you honestly expect me to believe that?

"You have power equal to that of a primordial and your hanging aurond my son, for no apparent reason other than for his protection." Poseidon gave me an incredulous look in his eyes, not believing my story.

"It's the truth, but if your still skeptical about my intentions, then allow me to make an oath to ease your doubts." Poseidon didn't say anything but stopped twisting the trident.

"I, Isaiel, swear on the natural order that my intentions with the Jackson Family, is to protect their wellbeing and nothing else."

The moment I was done with my oath, the temperature changed from hot to cold, and cold to hot as Poseidon began to switch between his Greek and Roman forms, and a pressure equal to Father descended on us.

After that effect was done, Poseidon look shaken but could tell that some power was invoked, so he pulled out his trident and gave me another warning.

"Let me be clear, I will allow you to be near my child since your telling the truth, but I will be watching and if do anything to either one of them, I will drag you to the depths of the sea and show you true hell."

"I'm afraid your too late, been to hell and back already and the devil is my brother so, you have to get a bit more creative." Smirking as Poseidon snorted and disappeared in a cloud of smoke that smell like sea salt.

(??? Pov)

Meanwhile, in a place with no name and a symphony of voices, a women sat alone on a Throne while watching a monitor that displayed the face of Isaiel.

"My, my who knew my fated one would be so bold, especially when making an oath in my name without knowing the consequences of such an action." The woman put her hand on the monitor and had an wishful expression on her face.

"Damn that Father of yours cheri, if it wasn't for that stupid barrier he made keeping us apart I would be right at your side, but don't worry when the time is right we can finally be one, and nothing will separate us again."
