Chapter 511

[Anger, Greed, Fear, Will, Hope, Compassion, Love, Life and Death,]

Percy chanted in ancient Greek as he remembered his trails. Percy felt

the wind suddenly pick up as if to react to his chant, it felt like he had

actual connections to the words, but something was wrong, it was still

incomplete.

[My Anger…...rises from Fear. My Greed… is born out of my duty. My

Will commands my actions while my Hope helps others. My

Compassion is…..my Love and Death…..is Life,] slowly a feeling of

wholeness came upon Percy, but he wasn't down, there was still one

more thing missing.

[My Anger rises from Fear, my Greed is born from my duty, my Will

commands my actions while my Hope helps others. My Compassion is

my Love and Death is Life. I am Percy Jackson, pilgrim of Greece.]

Suddenly it clicked, those 9 nine extra words made him feel whole. The

mana in his body started to vibrate with eagerness. Percy could control

it easily, he then pushed it outwards in the form of a sphere without a

second thought.

"Percy wait! You haven't said the spell!" Mera cried out, but it was too

late.

Percy's eyes swung open just in time to see his mana pout out of his

body and take on the form of a sphere around himself similar to the

water sphere he could make with his water control. But there was a

problem, he could actually see the mana, when before he realized of

his mana senses to feel mana, now he didn't need to, he could see it

with his naked eyes.

His mana was a mixture of blue and green as the two solid colors

mixed around like the colours in a tie dye shirt. Percy reached out and

touched it and was surprised to feel the mana resisting him, he could

actually touch it!

"Zeus above," Mera said in wonder as she looked around with her

mouth hanging open. The sphere had covered the both of them, and

Percy could feel that it had also was present underneath their feet as

well.

Ping!

You have gained a new skill via your 'Mana Affinity' perk!

Mana control, Lv- 1 (0%)

Allows you to control your mana in it's purest form. By expelling

your mana in a highly condensed state your can create structure

only limited to your imagination.

Cost- 100 MP per second for a single structure

Percy was shocked, ''Mana Affinity'? What the hell?' He quickly pulled

up that perk as well;

Mana Affinity-Allows user to control mana in its pure form. Allows

for free movement of mana outside of the user's body.

+20% Extra mana

Mana recovery rate increased to 45% every 10 minutes.

Percy was amazed at what he was reading. He didn't realise what this

perk actually meant when he first got it. He thought it was simply

something that gave him a mana boost and control mana more easily

for spells. But now after re-reading it he finally realised what an idiot he

had been.

"I think I know what this is," Percy spoke up as he pushed the boxes

away from him. He turned toMera who was waiting patiently for his

explanation, "it's a type of mana manipulation which I seem to have

unlocked due to my large mana pool. If I condensed my mana and

expel it out, it seems to become," Percy tapped the mana dome around

them causing it to ring out like he was touching ceramic, "solid,

somehow."

Lie successful!

"How is this even possible?" Mera asked in wonder, "I have never even

heard of this."

Percy shrugged, "well neither have I."

"How do we get out of here?"

"Let me try something," Percy told her as he Observed the dome they

were under;

Mana construct- Dome

A construct created out of pure mana. As long as mana is

supplied to it it will hold onto it's form. Regeneration will cost

extra.

Defence - 500/500

Cost- 100 MP per second + 50 MP per second for regeneration

purposes

'So I can't just break out of this. If I do I might end up draining myself of

all my mana,' Percy realised. So he then closed his eyes and

visualized his connection to the dome, after the description did say that

as long as mana was supplied it would hold it's form. So that just

meant all he had to do was cut off the supply.

Percy immediately found his connection with the dome and terminated

it causing the dome to to slowly disappear allowing them once again to

feel the rays of the late afternoon sun on their skin.

"So….maybe we should try and do that again, but this time remember

to say the spell Percy," Mera said with a grin.

Percy nodded, "yeah, sure." He then looked down as he felt his mana

flow through his body. This new skill of his definitely called for further

study.

"Now let's do this again," Meera said sitting down on the sand followed

by Percy.

Percy closed his eyes and pulled on his mana again, he repeated his

chant, [My Anger rises from Fear, my Greed is born from my duty, my

Will commands my actions while my Hope helps others. My

Compassion is my Love and Death is Life. I am Percy Jackson, pilgrim

of Greece]

The mana was vibrating like crazy as he slowly brought it out imagining

it forming a big dome around them both as he spoke the spell as loud

as he could, [SPRING'S RUSH!]

As Percy pushed the mana out he made sure to maintain control as he

repeated his chant over and over again. Slowly his mana began to

move on it's own spreading around him stretching itself as wide as it

could.

Percy could feel his mana wined and turn into the form of several

wards sending a feeling of warning and danger to all monsters nearby.

"Okay, this I did not expect," Meera's voice caused Percy to open his

eyes.

You have used 5,000 MP!

Ping!

You have learnt a new spell!

Spring's Rush- Creates a medium level monster repelling barrier

around a particular area. Cost- X, Area covered- 1 feet in diameter

per 100 MP spent

Lasts- 20 days

Percy got up and looked around seeing nothing of note, "I don't get it,

didn't it work this time?"

Mera nodded, "it did work my prince, use your mana sensing abilities to

see what I mean."

Percy nodded as he closed his eyes and did just that. Suddenly he felt

his mana all around them in the form of a perfect circle. It spread about

50 feet in diameter and the very ground around him felt safe.

Chapter 512

"How long will it last?" Percy asked, "20 days?" he remembered the

spell's description.

Mera nodded, "your mana sensing abilities are very impressive Percy,

yes 20 days is the limit to the spell."

Percy frowned, "then dad must be reapplying the ward around mom's

place every month or so."

"Not really," Mera spoke up, "Lord Poseidon is much too busy for that, I

am sure he probably etched the spell into the building so that the spell

was self casting."

Percy raised an eyebrow, "self casting?"

Mera nodded, "yes. I understand you are familiar with Greek runes?"

Percy foraged, "yeah, I managed to get Alecto to teach me a thing or

two."

Mera sat down, "then you must know that every spell also has a written

form yes?" Percy nodded as he sat down next to her. "Unlike other

spells, spells performed in ancient Greek is special as they can be

directly translated from word to language. If a spell is in...let's say Latin,

the latin written words of said spells will not provide a direct relation of

the spell and the magic performed."

Percy nodded, "so you're saying whether I write the spell or speak it

out, it's all the same."

Mera nodded, "exactly."

"But why is ancient Greek diffrent from Latin?"

"Well in the case of Latin, all the spells they know have been translated

from ancient Greek into latin, well most of them anyway. That is why

the Romans have never produced any good spell users, they lack the

power that the words of ancient Greek provide."

Percy nodded, "so you're saying that we have a stronger connection to

magic due to our greek leiange."

Mera nodded, "yes. Your ability to speak ancient Greek, a dead

language, is a gift most spell casters would kill for. Like actually kill for.

It is a natural focus for magic, something others have tried to replicated

to various degrees of success. The Romans invented wands to try and

serve as their focus while the Chinese use various weapons or

household items. The closest thing we have to an equal, and in some

cases a superior, is the Hindu mythology, but let's not get into that right

now.

Percy nodded, "so….would I be able to create any spell? Like if I said,

'fireball' in Greek would i be able to create a fireball?"

Mera thought about it and slowly nodded, "yes….you can. But you

probably won't be able to do certain complicated spells," Mera wanrned

him, "Spring's rush, those words themselves have been blessed by

Poseidon himself so that is they are uttered in ancient Greek, and you

have enough mana, you can create a complex spell."

Percy groaned, "so only Gods can create new spells?"

Mera shook her head, "well...yes and no. If you want to create a spell,

and a complex spell at that, you need to focus on what you want, intent

is the water armour spell I should you?" Percy nodded, "I created that

myself."

Percy was amazed, "damn, you really are a genius."

Mera blushed, "well...thanks. But-ah, anyway, back to spell creation.

Let's say you create a spell that turns….ah, let's say it turns sand into

water. Now you would have to calculate how the molecular mass of

silicon can be converted into water, and don't' worry about the

molecules being different, magic has the tendency to emulate elements

on a whim."

Percy blinked, "but isn't one of the laws of the universe that matter can

neither be created nor destroyed?"

Mera nodded, "yes, I see someone has been readin their chemistry

books. Anyway magic is the exception to it all. Think of magic as a

cheat code to a video game," 'hitting the nail on the head there Mera,'

Percy told himself, "magic can change what we understand about the

world, twisting it into something else. But enough about advanced

molecular transmutation, let's get back to your spell.

"Okay, so you can transform sand into water, you have to go through

thousands of mental calculations in your head, feel the way your magic

moves and command it. Remember Percy Magic is 50% theory and

50% hands on adaptability. So after all that you have a spell which you

will have to sum up in a few words. Now every time you say those

words the magic reacts and follows your subconscious commands, you

guide your magic even when you don't realise you are doing it.

"Now, if you teach someone else the spell they will have to go through

all the trials you did until the spell becomes second nature to them. But

if a God invented a spell anyone can use it without needing to

understand the complexities of said spell."

Percy nodded in understanding, "so you mean it tell me that spells

made by a human have to be taught and learnt, but spells made by a

God is something you know automatically? But how is that even

possible?"

"I told you, words have power," Mera repeated, "your words are a

promise to whatever God that created the spell, in this case Poseidon,

that you would offer up a tiny amount of mana to that God. And without

you realising it you have give said mana to the God, it's part of the

mana cost for the spell. You are the son of poseidon, that is why the

spell worked for you, even if you didn't invoke your father's name for

the spell. You have a natural affinity for all spells created by Poseidon."

Percy nodded, "I see. So it's like a public transport vehicle."

Mera blinked, "I'm sorry?"

"It's like a public transport vehicle," Percy repeated himself, "the Gods

are the government and the spells used are buses or trains. If we use a

public bus provided by the government we have to pay them a small

amount of money for a ticket, and further more we don't' have to do

anything as the bus will take us and drop us wherever we want. But if

we have a vehicle of our own, like a car, we have to learn how to drive,

and spend time perfecting our technique. Right?"

Mera blinked as her mouth hanged open. "Two years. They take a two

year course on spell theory in Atlantis. You just summarised two years

worth of theory with an example relating Gods to the

Government…...you are amazing my prince."

Percy grinned, "I know it."

Mera shook her head, "anyway where were we? Oh yeah, how Lord

Poseidon probably self charges your mom's barrier. Well as I said

words have power. You simply carve the spell's ancient Greek words

into the side of the building or into the location you want it on, and you

have a ready made spell. Now all you need to do is add this rune,"

Mera then drew a rune on the sand, "which supplies magic to the

carved spell, and presto! Self charging spell."

Ping!

You have learnt a new rune!

Spell charger- draw the rune next to any spell rune that needs to

be charged. Cost- 0

Percy blinked, "wait… I want to try something." Percy then walked over

to one tree and took out Riptide. He then used it's edge to carve the

rune for 'fire' in ancient Greek as he poured a tiny amount of mana into

it.

Chapter 513

Suddenly the tree exploded into flames which Percy quickly put out

with water he gathered form the moisture.

"This is certainly going to help in the future," Percy said with a smile as

he healed the damaged part of the tree, don't want little Percy Decker,

the son of Pan, pissed off at him for damaging a tree. The kid kind of

got protective when it came to wildlife, understandably considering who

his dad is.

"So," Percy turned to Mera, "have anything else to show me?"

Mera smiled, "lots."

Some time later;

Percy had learned a lot of theory form Mera, transfigurations,

application of rune and spell based bonding (charms). He even learned

a new curse;

Slice- Cuts whatever it is pointed at. Cost- 50 Mp Attack - 50

It wasn't much, but a well placed Slice could kill a person. Percy

walked back to his cabin mentally exhausted. As amazing as magic

was, it was a pain in tha ass to learn!

Percy opened his cabin and promptly took off his shoes throwing them

aside along with his socks. He laid down on his bed as he looked

around, this place really was feeling a lot more empty without John in

it.

Percy sighed, 'damn it, I don't want to sleep but I don't want to train.'

Just then Percy realised something, he still had something to do, set

up his TV and entertainment system!

Percy quickly got up with excitement flowing through his body, a

change of pace was just what he needed. Percy looked around,

'now….where do I set it up?'

The obvious place would be on his table, it was rarely ever used these

days, much to the anger of Annabeth, and it was the closest to a power

socket. But Percy didn't want it there, he wanted to hang it on the wall,

but he didn't know the first thing about carpentry. If only….wait.

Percy opened his inventory and took out one of the DVD's he bought,

'Learn the tricks and trade of the Handyman.'

Percy grinned, 'Photographic reflexes here I come.'

Percy quickly unpacked the TV and carefully put it on the table. He

then took out the DVD player he bought and attached it to the TV

putting in the video.

The video itself was boring, and Percy didn't have all the time in the

world, well he did, but who wants to watched a documentary about a

man who liked to play around with things that are basically giant man

sized toys?

Percy quickly pressed the fast forward button activating his super

speed to keep up with the increased frame rate. He didn't understand

anything the man was saying, but he didn't need to.

80 minutes later;

Ping!

You have learnt a new skill through watching someone via your

photographic reflexes!

Percy's mouth hung open as he looked at the huge list of skills he

acquired from watching the video. Sure the video was long, it was

around 240 minutes long, and Percy took 80 minutes to watch it all,

even at fast forward mode. But this was….this was just too much!

Percy now knew exactly how to fix something, that leaky fourth stall

toilet in the boy's locker room? Done. That broken fence in Katie

Gardener's' garden? Easy peasy. Fixing Apollo's tendency to flirt with

committed women? Well, if Artemis couldn't do it then Percy certainly

couldn't ether.

But right now, Percy knew what he had to do to instal his little set up.

And luckily he had just the thing to help him, Alcyoneus's ring. With this

he could control any metal to do what he wanted them to do. Meaning

he could make nails out of anything.

Percy walked out to his porch and activated his precious stone

manipulation perk summoning a clump of iron;

Ping!

You have spent 50 MP to summon: Iron!

The club of iron was bigger than Percy's first but Percy was able to

carry it easily. Percy then used Alcyoneus's ring to purify that clump of

iron into a manageable bar of pure iron before transforming said bar of

iron into a hanging fixture.

Percy then walked back in and fixed the fixture onto the TV before he

made four holes in the wooden wall with his fingers. Super strength

had it's uses.

Percy then carefully placed the TV in place as he slowly let go. It

seemed the holes were deep enough that the TV didn't just slip out. It

wasn't the most effective method but it got the job down.

Percy left the DVD player on the desk, he could figure out a place for it

tomorrow, right now he wanted to just lay back and watch some

movies.

Percy rummaged through his new collection and quickly took out the

one skill he wanted to learn above everything else, martial arts.

The DVD he got was titled, 'Get My Black Belt Wado Ryu Karate' and it

honestly looked awesome. It's cover feature black and red flames with

people performing flying kicks and other such amazing feats.

Chapter 514

Percy put the DVD in and turned the TV on. The DVD was a total of 6

hours, Percy obviously didn't have the time for that, so he just fast

forwarded this one as well. He payed attention to everything

performed, not one skill was left out of his sight, he saw and

understood everything that was being done. Often times it was a slow

process as the instructors would constantly repeat what they were

doing, but Percy didn't let it bother him too much.

One and a half hours passed by and Percy say down on his bed, the

documentary was finally over. He had seen all of it, all 6 hours worth of

videos he crammed into a short time frame and…...he was

disappointed to say the least.

This form of karate as…..well, it was basically shit. It may have been

about combat before but now it is watered down to simple

showboating. It featured 20% combat, 40% shouting and 40% dancing.

No, wait, not dancing, kata's yeah, that's what it's called, a Kata.

Please note the sarcasm.

It seems Wado-ryu karate was basically just for self defence/showing

off at competitions. These things called katas were basically a combo

move that people could use in a fight, but they were just so boring! It

was basically dancing!

Ping!

You have learnt a new skill through watching someone via your

photographic reflexes!

Martial arts, LV-X

A series of movements that can cause harm or protect the user.

Attack - Number of combo moves + STR + VIT + DEX

Combo moves available:

52 (Wado-ryu)

Style: Wado-ryu, Rank- Black belt 1

+2 Dex while performing these moves

Percy raised an eyebrow. The most notable bonus of this skill is the +2

Dex, but the combo's are also nice…...though they don't really seem to

make any sense. Percy knew them all, but they were all so ridge and

complex, it didn't make any sense on how they could be used for

practical combat.

'Maybe I should test this out,' Percy groaned as he channeled mana

into his jewel and summoned Zed.

The sword's man bowed, "master."

"Hey Zed. I need you to help me out with my training" Percy told him.

The servant lifted his blade ready to attack Percy, "no, this time we

don't' use our weapons, just our hands."

Zed nodded as he laid his sword next to the wall as he and Percy

faced off each other. Percy waved his hands and pushed all the

furniture to the side giving them more space to move. Percy lifted his

arms up, and widened his legs to his shoulders' length. He put his left

hand up vertically and drew his right back, this was the basic stance for

Wado-ryu.

"Begin," Percy spoke. Zed charged forward and swung at Percy's

head. The demigod blocked with his left hand and punched with his

right. Since his still had his seals on it didn't do much damage, but Zed

was still sent backwards.

Zed made to move again but Percy was on him. He moved his feet two

steps at a time, they spun around and Percy sent a back kick knocking

Zed back which he followed with a one two punch combo rattling Zed's

helmet.

Zed then kicked back, trying to push Percy off, but Percy's reflexes

were so fast he caught it before it landed. Zed sent a punch that almost

caught Percy in the chest, but in the last moment Percy blocked it with

one arm and twisted the one around Zed's leg.

"Shit!" Zed cried out as he mule kicked Percy backwards.

Percy moved back and rubbed his sore abdomen, Zed still had his

super strength and Percy was right now not using his own. Zed got up

on his feet and began wailing on Percy.

Gamer's mind activated and Percy began to calmly block and counter

Zed's hits. Percy moved faster and faster letting his body take over as

he reacted before thinking. Percy then went on the offencive.

He punched Zed in the head and knocked him backward. He punched

his abdomen and then putted his shin. Zed fell on his back;

Body Form Activated: Right and Left Arms

Percy jumped up and activated Body Form as he brought both fists

down crushing Zed into smoke once more.

Martial Arts combo's used: 8!

Attack- 8 X 1.5 X 100 X 50 = 62,500!

Percy grinned, he finally understood why this was so awesome. Just

because the combos were in a particular order when he learnt them

didn't mean Percy was stuck with that. It was like a piece of code, or an

application. Percy could pick and choose which one he want to use, in

no particular order.

That meant the more styles and techniques he learnt the more combos

he knew and the more unpredictable the became. This could be the it,

the difference between just fighting and winning. Most Godly beings

used brute force to fight, that was why Percy could even think about

taking them on. But now….now Percy had an advantage, he had a

card up his sleeve.

Percy giggled, he actually giggled. He could wait to learn more. He

really wanted to spam his Photographic reflexes skill to the max so he

quickly took out the karate instruction disk and searched for something

else to learn.

Percy eventually selected a DVD about how to sow, it wasn't much, but

hey it could hurt to have an extra skill on stand by right? After all it's

better to have something and not need it, then to need it and not have

it.

He put the DVD in and just as Percy was about to curl up in his bed

when his cabin door was thrown open as the majority of Percy's male

friends, Michael, the Stoll brothers, Lee, Charles, Peter and Malcolm

walked in.

Percy raised an eyebrow, "can I help you guys?"

"Holy shit she was right," Michael said looking at Percy's newly

installed TV, "you do have one!"

Percy looked surprised, "what do you mean?" The boys ignored his

question as the all walked in as the started jumping on the bed.

"Okay what is going on here?" Percy asked as he looked around, "why

the Hades is everyone here?!"

Michael looked through all the DVD's Percy had while he spoke up,

"well you see Travis and Conner overhead Thalia mention you bought

a TV and a DVD player, so we all thought we should come over and

watch a movie. By the way all the movies you have here suck.

Percy raised an eyebrow, " well I happen to think they are very

educational Michale."

"You mean boring," Michael looked through them all reading their titles,

"Carpentry. Karate. How to Garden? Holy shit man! All of these are so

fuckign boreing!"

Percy sighed, "I happen to like them. They are very educational."

Travis and Conner grinned, "well Percy, we have something that is

equally educational.," Travis exclaimed.

"Yup, very educational, and very fun," Conner commented in an excited

tone.

"Really? Is this going to be like the last time we watched a movie?"

Percy asked recalling the time they watched American Pie together.

Lee grinned, "maybe."

The guys in the cabin looked at Percy who sighed, "fine, but if anyone

of you mention a word of this to anyone, and I especially mean Thalia,

you are all dead. Got it?"

Travis waved Percy's question away, "yeah yeah, got it. We won't tell

you girlfriend about how you are secretly a closet pervert that likes to

watch pronos."

Percy grumbled, "at least I have a girlfriend, and no Travis, your right

hand doesn't count."

The other boys recognized the insult immediately as even Conner

startled to heckle his brother.

Chapter 515

"There there Travis, I'm sure you'll get a girlfriend soon," Michael

assured him, "now, let's watch some movies!"

Percy sighed, "fine, do you at least have a movie to watch?"

Connor nodded as he took out a DVD case from somewhere, Percy

could never figure out where Conner hides his stuff.

The DVD was titled 'Backdoor Sluts 9' and it featured very sexy petite

black haired porn star by the name Sasha Grey on the cover wearing

next to nothing.

Conner grinned, "you are going to love this one."

Percy's eyes widened, "dude! That's an actually porno!"

Michael nodded eagerly, "yup. We could never play it on the projector

in the Hermes cabin, to many little kids there, not to mention the girls.

So when we heard that you not only had your own TV and an empty

cabin…."

"No way! Thalia is going to kill man!" Percy yelled out in horror as a

mental image of Thalia frying him with multiple lighting bolts.

"Relax Percy," Lee told him, "we promise not to tell her anything."

Charles nodded, "this is our secret."

Percy gulped, "guys..."

"Look at this Percy," Travis shoved the DVD into Percy's hands, "look

at her. I swear she must be related to Aphrodite somehow!"

Percy gulped as he looked at the pron star on the cover. She didn't

have any big 'assets' per say, but from all the images seen on the DVD

of the video inside she more than made up for that with enthusiasm.

Percy gulped, he had never seen so much spit outside of a person's

mouth. And to think all of that came from something so small.

'Please forgive me Thalia,' Percy gulped, "o-okay. Put it on."

"YES!" they cheered.

"Keep it down!" Percy snapped, "somebody close the damn blinds! I

don't' want people peeping inside!"

"Sir yes sir!" Michael yelled out as he did just that. Conner quickly put

the DVD inside Percy's new player and they all sat back and watched

as Sasha Grey entertained them for the next hour.

One Hour Later;

All the boys had their legs crossed as they sat a feet away from each

other.

"That was…..." Percy started.

"Yeah…." Michael nodded.

"Do you think all girls like being treated like that?" Travis asked.

"You mean like a literal rag doll?" Lee asked.

Travis nodded and Charles replied, "no, I don't' think so. I think Miss

Grey is….special in this case."

"I didn't know the human body could bend like that," Conner said as

looked at the black TV screen, "and I didn't realise that dicks could be

that…...big."

The boys nodded silently. Michael spoke up first, "I need to go."

"Me too," Travis said as they all started to leave one by one heading

towards the bathroom or a private place.

Percy used his telekinetic powers to close the door without even

getting up, he probably had it the worst of them all. He kept imagining

him and doing what he saw in the prono. Needless to say Percy wasn't

going to get up any time soon.

'I really hope this doesn't awaken anything in me,' Percy thought to

himself as he looked at the two new skills he gained from watching the

porno via his Photographic reflexes.

80% believable.

Percy closed the box before his eyes laid eyes on the last skill. When

he watched that video he learnt everything, and yes, everything. Percy

didn't want to think about, didn't want to even acknowledge that he is in

possession of said skill. As far as he was concerned it is something

that he will never speak of. No one will know of this skill, no one, ever.

Percy was glad Thalia knew about his Photographic reflexes or else he

would have to explain why he was so good at sex considering he has

never done it before.

In the end Percy was grateful for the new skills, it would make life so

much more easier. And hopeful Thalia won't kill him when she finds

out.

Next day;

The next morning Percy had received an Iris message from the

Collector. He told Percy that he had a plot ready for him, one which he

believed Percy would love.

He told Percy took meet up at Sag Harbor, which was just a few short

miles away from camp. Percy was nervous, the way the man spoke

almost seems like he knew where camp was, but then again he was an

immortal and the camp's locations wasn't really a great secret or

anything.

So Percy meet up with the man as requested, meeting him at the

docks at 12.

Percy walked up to the Collector who waited for him on a very

comfortable looking motor boat.

"Are we going anywhere?" Percy asked the man.

"You'll see," he said as he sat down in the passenger seat.

Percy raised an eyebrow, "you want me to drive?"

"You're a son of Poseidon aren't you?"

Percy shrugged as he got into the boat, if this was a trap or something

like that, Percy would atleast have homefield advantage. Percy started

the boat with a snap of his fingers as he seamlessly connected with the

spirit of the sea and all that was on and in it.

Percy carefully took the boat out onto open waters, "where are we

going?"

"You'll see," The Collector simply replied, "just head Eastwards, and

don't stop."

Percy sighed and did just that. With Percy boosting up their speed, the

small motor boat had reached Gardiner's bay in a few minutes. Soon

they could even see Gardiner's island in the distance when suddenly

the Collector spoke up,

"There," he said pointing to the island, "that is where we need to go."

Percy was surprised by said nothing as he simply streamed the boat

towards said island. Percy found a small port near the coast of the

island where he carefully guided and anchored the motor boat.

"Tell me Percy," the Collector began, "what do you know about this

island?"

Percy shrugged, "nothing really."

Chapter 516

The Collector nodded, "it is to be expected. Well then let me tell you

about this island. The island has been owned by the Gardiner family

and their descendants for nearly 400 years, and it is the only American

real estate still intact as part of an original royal grant from the English

Crown."

The Collector climbed out of the boat and Percy followed suit. They

walked out of the port and saw a car waiting for them with a female

chauffeur greeting them with a wave;

Carol Dadeda, Caretaker of the Island

Lv-8

The woman was young, she should be around her late 20's or so. She

greeted them both as the Collector and Percy got on sitting in the back.

She got behind the wheel and began to drive them away.

"It is 3 miles wide and has a 27 miles long coast line," the Collector

spoke as he looked out at the passing countryside, "it was given to the

Gardiner family to possess forever, but due to a series of unfortunate

events the last direct living member of the Gardiner family died a few

years ago."

Percy shot the Collector a look for which the man laughed, "I had

nothing to do with that, I assure you. But, the case remains, this land

was passed onto the man's closest relative, who cannot afford to

maintain this place. And so I bought it from her."

The car soon pulled up to an old looking manner that looked like it was

built in the 1940's. The Collector and Percy stepped out as they walked

towards the front of the manor, stopping before entering inside.

The Collector turned, "look at this," he pointed to the island in front of

them. Percy did so and was amazed. If there was ever any place

where a city for demigods could be built….it was this one. An island all

for themselves, no need to hide, no need to run. And since it's an

island the chances of monsters attacking are next to zero.

But despite all that Percy sighed, "how much?" Percy doubted he could

afford it easly, even with all the money he could make from seeing

each and every piece of Alcyoneus's body he would still have to work

overtime to pull precious metals out of the ground. It would be a long

and boring process, but he would do it.

"It's free," The Collector spoke startling Percy.

"W-what?!" Percy shouted, "it's free?"

The pale man nodded, "yes, consider it my gift to you, the prize you

earned for guessing my name correctly."

Percy blinked, "is a name really worth all this? This island is probably

worth billions!"

The Collector nodded, "yes, this island is worth billions, but so is a

name. Don't forget that Percy Jackson," the man started into Percy's as

red eyes meet green, "don't ever forget the power of a name."

Percy nodded blankly, "so…..when can I get the official documents out

of the way?"

"It's already done," the immortal Jew responded, "I put it under your

mother's name to be inherited by you once you come of age.

Congratulations Percy Jackson, you are now the owner of an island."

Percy blinked, "holy shit."

The Collector chuckled, "I suggest your run along now, I'm sure you are

eager to tell your friends the good news."

Percy blinked, "yeah...sure. But ah don't you need the boat?"

The Collector raised an eyebrow, "Percy I am well aware that you don't

need a boat to travel, after all with a max speed little over mach 1 I

doubt you need any vehicle at all."

Percy was nervous, "how did you know that? How did you know

exactly how fast I can run? I never ever crossed mach 1 when in

America, never. So how do you know that I can not only cross it, but

surpass it?"

The Collector shrugged, "it's gift, like how you knew my name."

Percy was already getting freaked out. He gulped but said nothing else

as he quickly turned as zoomed away in a blur of speed leaving the

island and running over the water towards camp Half-Blood.

"That was awfully mean of you," the female chauffeur spoke up

chuckling as she snapped her fingers turning her hair blue and her

eyes sulphuric yellow, "I think you might have scared him off."

The Collector shrugged, "he's a brave boy sister, I'm sure he'll be fine."

"True, plus the island is just too good a deal to pass up," The woman

grinned, "even for him."

"Are you planning on keeping up your disguise? Which one is this

again?"

"Carol Dadeda, caretaker of the island," the woman said as she sighed,

"and yes, how else am I going to introduce myself to him?"

The Collector raised an eyebrow, "isn't that a bit risky? We don't know

if he-"

The woman rolled her eyes, "I told you, I know how he thinks, I know

what he will do, and I know about his….particular powers. He won't

make me out unless I want him to."

The Collector chuckled, "yes well do be carefull. You do remember the

last time you got this excited."

The woman rolled her eyes, "that was one time Jojo!"

"You caused world war 1."

"Well…..fuck, forget this, I'll be careful from now on, I promise. After

all," the woman's happy demeanor melted away as she narrowed her

eyes, "it's about to start."

"Do you really think he's ready?"

The woman smirked, "yeah, I do. After all, he is The Gamer, there's

nothing he can't handle."

Chapter 517

You have slept in you own bed; HP and MP have been restored

100% each. All ailments and negative status effects have been

cured.

Percy groaned as he pushed the notification away getting up. Last

night had been brutal. He had spent it training himself in his new found

mana control abilities.

Oddly enough it was easy to control, kind of like water control, but it

also had it's own unique properties. The closest things he could

compare it to would be just pure energy, if he made a construct with it it

became solid, if he didn't then it would just be pure energy.

Percy yawned as he threw his blanket off of him getting up, Thalia

hadn't come in last night, she was also training like crazy. Something

about improving her lighting control, Percy didn't ask because her

secret's were her own.

Seeing Leo sitting by the TV made Percy smiled as he scratched the

dog behind the ear waking him up. "Time to get up bud, we have a long

day ahead of us."

Leo yawned, "are we going for a walk?"

Percy nodded, "yup. A nice long walk."

Leo mumbled, "good. I'll see you then."

Percy chuckled as Leo put his head back down returning back to sleep.

The demigod quickly grabbed a towel and his phone as he walked out

of the cabin. As he closed the door behind him suddenly somebody

cried out;

"SUPRISE!"

Percy turned around in a flash dropping his towel as his hands

immediately went to his pocket. Percy blinked as he realized standing

before him in front of his cabin was all his friends. The head

counselors, Michela, Clarisse, Annabeth, Nina, Mera, Nico, Decker

even Peter from the Ares cabin was here.

"Ah, guys? What's going on?" Percy asked looking at his grinning

friends.

"Don't tell me you forgot!" Michael shouted out as everyone else

chuckled.

"Forgot? Forgot what?" Percy asked.

"Told you he would forget," Annabeth mumbled, "and even after all the

efforts we took waking up so early in the morning just to surprise him."

"Will someone tell me what's going on?!" Percy asked desperately, "I'm

really starting to freak out here guys!"

"Simple fish head," Thalia's familiar voice called out as the small group

of demigods in front of the Poseidon cabin parted allowing Thalia to

walk towards Percy with a cake in her hand. The cake was blue with a

single light candle. On it were the words 'Happy Birthday Percy' written

on it with deep blue frosting.

"Holy shit," Percy mumbled as Thalia stopped in front of him, "it's my

birthday."

Percy was amazed at this, he had forgotten his birthday, again! He

pushed the boxes away and looked at Thalia. She smiled at him as she

presented the cake.

Percy grinned as every slowly began to sing happy birthday. Percy

smiled at them all and quickly blew out the candle causing everyone to

clap.

"Enough clapping!" Michael shouted, "let's eat this bad boy!" everyone

chuckled but agreed with Michael's suggestion as the Poseidon cabin

was filled to the brim with demigods.

Michael and the guys immediately jumped onto Percy's bed and turned

on the TV, a documentary about Greek culture was playing. The girls

quickly made a small group for themselves as they sat around

gossiping while Nico and Decker were in one corner plotting their next

prank with the help of the Stoll brothers.

Percy helped Thalia serve the cake as he smiled at her, "did you make

this yourself?"

Thalia blushed, "yeah," she whispered in a low tone, "how did you

know?"

Percy reached behind Thalia's ear as he took out a smudge of flour left

behind, "you're a very messy cook."

Thalia blushed, "damn it. I thought I got all of it."

Percy chuckled, "it really doesn't matter," he kissed her on the check,

"thanks Thalia, this is the best birthday ever."

Thalia kissed Percy back as the two began to serve everyone cake.

"Is eating cake the first thing in the morning really such a good idea?"

Decker asked aloud.

"Shut up Decker! No one asked you!" Nico shouted at his friend, "and if

you don't want your cake I'll just take-"

"-Nope!" Decker cried out as he grabbed the plate and moved it away

from Nico's greedy hands, "no thank you."

Nico huffed as everyone chuckled at their antics. Percy chuckled but

Decker was right, they did need more than just cake. So Percy opened

up his inventory and started pulling out food from the Lotus casino that

he had stored up in there.

All in all it was a good small party where people just sat around talking.

Today was already starting to look like a good day.

After the heavy breakfast Percy and his small band of friends made

way to the Mess Hall where the meet the rest of the camp. Everyone

quickly went their own way while Percy and Thalia sat down together at

the Poseidon table. They had been doing so for sometime now and

people didn't really seem care, and since no one stopped them they

continued to do so.

Percy sat next to her hand in hand, "so what's the plan for today?"

Thalia asked Percy.

"Well I was hoping that we could take a day off," Percy told her with a

grin, "maybe visit your brother in camp Jupiter, see how their doing.

Then...I don't know, maybe see my mom and then…..well I honestly

don't know."

"What did you do for your last birthday?" Thalia asked him.

"I went dungeon crawling with my dad."

Thalia blinked, "you cleared a dungeon with your dad? Poseidon? Like

the God."

Percy nodded, "yeah, I know. Bloody bugger stole my kill. He was all

like, 'I didn't think you could handle it Percy,' but I could see the way he

was looking at me, just wanted to steal my experiance points."

Thalia chuckled, "alright then, note to self, don't take Percy's

experience points. So you have no plans for today? Nothing?"

Percy shrugged, "I'm not really a birthday planner kind of guy."

"What did you do before? You know, before all of this?"

"Well I…..I stayed at sea, I just…..stayed at the sea," Percy smiled

remembering the fond memories, "my mom would take me out to the

lighthouse we rented out in Montauk and we would spend the week

there, just the two of us. I loved looking out at the see, it just…..relaxed

me I suppose. Gods, looking back I so should have realised I was a

son of Poseidon even then!"

Chapter 518

Thalia smiled, "maybe. But let's get back to buisness, I want today to

be the best day in your life, well one of anyway, so I was thinking why

not go to an amusement park or something?"

Percy smiled, "an amusement park? Really?"

"What? No ood?"

Percy shook his head, "no...no, that sounds awesome," Percy grinned,

"never been to one before. Well I have, but that one was abandoned

and I had to fight off robotic spiders with video camera Hephaestus set

up to try and catch Ares and Aphrodite making out."

Thalia raised an eyebrow, "was that the time you and Luke had to

retrieve the shield of Ares?"

Percy nodded, "yup."

Thalia nodded, "well I promise, no monsters, no robotic spiders and no

Gods. Just you, me, and everyone else in camp."

Percy blinked, "what? Thalia we can't bring everyone with us! They

aren't immune to their scent! With the whole camp there we are bound

to draw every monster right to us!"

"And that is why I'm here," a familiar voice called out behind Percy.

The demigod turned and saw Edward standing behind him with a large

silver briefcase by his side. The son of Hermes looked around as a

look of nostalgia came over him, "even after all this time it hasn't

changed a bit."

"Ed? What are you doing here?" Percy asked as he got up to give his

older friend a hug.

"Hey Percy, and happy birthday," Edward said with a smile returning

the hug, "and I am here to give you a present."

Percy stepped to the side as Ed put his briefcase on the table and

opened it. Inside was filled will green pills each placed inside tiny

individual plastic bags. A quick count told Percy that there was enough

for the entire camp, with a lot left over.

"Good job Ed," Thalia said with a grin, "you pulled through."

Edward scoffed, "why do you act so surprised? I told you I would have

it ready didn't I? Please, have some faith daughter of Zeus."

Thalia rolled her eyes, "yeah yeah money pants, sorry if I offended you,

please accept my most sincere of apologies," she said pouring on the

sarcasm.

"You know when you say it like that that I kind of feel like you don't

appreciate me," Edward said forening.

"Okay what is going on?" Percy asked, "I seriously feel left out."

"Well you girlfirend here," Edward emphasized the word grinning at

Percy, "called me up and asked for a favour. A sort of birthday present

for you."

Percy turned to Thalia, "you asked him to make the pills?"

Thalia nodded, "yup, we knew they worked, so I figured why not? So I

figured, 'hey Percy's birthday is coming up, and everyone in camp is

working super hard, so why not give them a break?' And just like that

got the awsome idea of an amusement park."

Percy blinked, "seriously? How did you even get Ed's number?"

"I got it from your phone," Thalia said with a shrug, "by the way you

should really store that in your inventory."

"I don't get a signal in my inventory," Percy told her, "so nobody would

be able to call me if I did that."

Thalia shrugged, "anyway, so I planned this all out, aren't I the best

girlfriend ever?"

Percy smiled, "yes, yes you are," he then kissed Thalia deeply as he

wrapped his hands around her waist.

They broke the kiss when Percy suddenly had a thought, "but how are

we going to get tickets for an amusement park? There are at least 150

demigods here, we can fill a normal park all on our own!"

"Already got that covered," Edward spoke up as he pushed the green

pills away revealing a stack of tickets inside the briefcase. He passed

them to Percy who looked them over;

Full day pass to Splish Splash water park!

This pass gives you full access to every ride and attraction in the

Splish Splash water park! The price of meals is not included.

Please bring your own water wear.

"Holy shit Ed," Percy said looking at the tickets, "these must have cost

a fortune." Percy knew the water park that was featured in this ticket, it

was very popular and very expensive for the normal person to go to.

"Not really," the billionaire said with a shrug, "anyway I basically bought

the entire park out for the day, so….I suggest we all leave as fast as we

can."

Percy blinked at Ed and then turned to Thalia again, "you are the best

girlfriend ever, period."

Thalia grinned, "I know. Now, go ahead," she pointed to the head table

where Chiron was waiting for him, "tell them all what we are going to

do today."

Percy grinned as he gave her another kiss walking towards Chiron.

"Did you know what they were planning?" he asked his old mentor.

"Well…..a little," the old hero trainer admitted, "it is good to see Edward

back in this Hall," the legendary teacher spoke as he smiled at Ed who

smiled back, "now, go ahead Percy, make your announcement."

Percy nodded as he turned around and cleared his throat, "alright

everyone listen up!" the campers stopped eating as they all turned to

him one by one, "now I know what you are thinking, 'he's probably

going to make some announcement about training or something', and

while usually that would be the case today is going to be a little

different."

The campers all looked surprised while Thalia and Edward smiled

knowingly. Percy continued, "as some of you might know today is my

birthday," he paused waiting for them to complete their birthday wishes

and greeting before continuing, "yes, thank you. And so, my gift to you

all today is this, today there will be no training."

Everyone broke into cheers and applause even louder than the ones

they gave for his birthday. Percy sighed, 'they are a little too excited

about all this. Am I really that bad?'

After the stopped cheering Percy continued, " but that is not the only

gift. The other was done in surprise by my wonderful girlfriend Thalia,"

the girl mentioned blushed, "who managed to do it without tipping

anyone off, somehow."

Percy held up the tickets, "full day passes to Splish and Splash, the

water park. Everyone, get your swimming suits ready, we are going to

a water park!"

This time they cheered even louder making Percy smile.

"How are we getting there?" Clarisse asked out loud.

Percy turned to Ed who spoke up, "I rented out a couple of school

busses, they will be here in about….an hour's time. Enough space for

us all."

Chapter 519

The campers started to whisper amongst themselves again as a buzz

of excitement filled the air. Percy smiled, "alright, get ready and meet

us by the barrier tree in one hour's time. Head counselors are

obviously responsible for making sure everyone get's ready on time

and obviously this isn't compulsory, you can stay back, but I don't really

think you want to."

"No shit Sherlock!" Michael yelled out.

"Fuck you Michael!" Percy cursed back.

"I didn't realise you were gay Percy!"

"I'm not, it doesn't count when the guy looks like a girl!"

Michael blinked, "you think I'm pretty."

Percy blushed, "okay, fine, you win. Let's just drop this."

"Oh hell no," Michael replied with a grin, "you think I'm pretty!"

"Micheal...stop, please."

"Do you think I'm prettier than Thalia?"

"Dude, it's my birthday, stop."

"No, of course not, she's your girlfriend, how about Annabeth? Am I

prettier than her?"

Percy whimpered, "you won, okay? Please just stop."

"No way! Tell me Percy, am I prettier than Annabeth? Tell me! Tell me!"

Zap!

Michael was paralyzed by a well placed zap of electricity from Thalia.

She blew on her outstretched finger like it was a gun, "you don't have

to thank me."

The camp chuckled at their antics as quickly they all started to talk

amongst themselves again.

Just then Annabeth spoke up, "wait...you want to bring the entire camp

to the park? Won't our collected scents attract a lot of attention? The

monstrous kind?"

Edward smiled, "and that's what this is for," he said tapping his case.

He put it down on nearest table and opened it again. He then stepped

aside allowing everyone in camp to get a clear view of the large

collection of green pills inside it.

"Wait...are those..." Annabeth began.

"The immunity pills," Edward nodded, "with these you won't have a

problem with monsters catching your scent again."

The campers all began to murmur among themselves again. It had

been a week since they all heard about the immunity pills. Since then

the campers had all been anxious to get their hands on a pill for

themselves, but they knew it had to be tested first.

"So...who wants to go first?" Thalia asked.

The campers looked nervous as nobody stepped forward. But just then

a voice called out, "us!"

Nico and Decker walked out of the gathered demigods with eager

smiles on their faces as they eyed the pills.

Percy smiled, "I should have know you two would want to try them out

first."

"You know it," Decker said grinning at the young man he had come to

view as an older brother or sorts.

"Alright then, before we begin," Thalia turned to Percy, "maybe you

should grab some milk from the kitchen."

Percy nodded as he did just that. Soon everyone from camp gathered

up behind Nico and Decker waiting patiently for their turn. They all

basically had the same reaction, panting with a look of constipation.

Not even the Aphrodite kids could make that look good, though Drew

did somehow manage to pull it off.

Soon the demigods went back to their cabins to pack as Edward meet

up with the other head councilors and Chiron to catch up or simply talk.

Percy and Thalia on the other hand slipped into Poseidon's cabin

where Percy provided to show Thalia just how much he loved her gift.

Ping!

Kissing, Lv- 14 (20%)

It is what it is. The higher level you are the better kisser you are.

And remember practise makes perfect.

Your level is kissing leaved the person feeling happy for the 10

hours

15% chance of turning them on.

An hour later;

Percy, Thalia and Leo walked to the entrance of the camp and waited

near the barrier tree where most of the campers had already gathered.

Thalia and Percy had a wide smile on their face, one didn't have to be

a child of Athena to figure out why.

Peleus the dragon had been growing at a steady pace over the last

month. He was now big enough to wrap around the branch on which

the Golden Fleece was perched. He didn't look like much of threat right

now, what with Katie Gardener current playing with the gaurdian,

feeding him some berries from out of his hand, but Percy knew that the

creature was still a dragon, meaning he would grow up big and strong.

Annabeth noticed then, "hey guys, what," Annabeth paused and

sighed,"…..Thalia you got like twenty hickies around your neck."

Thalia blinked as her hand went immediately to her neck as she

blushed. Percy chuckled causing Thalia to beat his stomach playfully.

"You know I can heal those if you want," Percy offered, "if it really

bothers you so much."

"No..." Thalia muttered, "it's cool." Percy grinned while Annabeth just

sighed at her friend's actions. It was like Thalia was a different person

every time she was with Percy, more open, more…..normal.

Soon it was 9 and everyone had gathered around the barrier tree.

Edward soon lead the small group down the hill and to the main road

where sure enough was 3 school buses waiting for them.

They all got on, cabin by cabin. Percy, Thalia, the Athena and Hermes

cabin all got on one bus with Edward as their 'adult' supervisor.

Unfortunately Leo couldn't come with, but the wolf hybrid didn't seem to

mind, something about having the camp all for himself. Percy was just

hoping they didn't all come back to see the camp covered with piss.

Soon the bus was in motion and very was buzzing in excitement.

"Alright everyone!" Edward shouted out, "let's sing a travel song!"

"Please don't," Percy mumbled.

"Shut up Percy!" Ed replied with a grin, "now, 100 bottles of beer on the

wall, 100 bottles of beer! Take one down, pass it around, 99 bottles of

beer on the wall."

Percy was practically in tears as quickly everyone joined in. Thalia

grinned at her boyfriend's pain as she too joined up on the sound

singing the loudest.

Chapter 520

"99 bottles of beer on the wall! 99 bottles of beer! Take one down, pass

it around, 98 bottles of beer on the wall!"

One long ride later;

"...pass it around! 21 bottles of beer on the wall!"

"We're here!" Percy shouted out loud pointing at the billboard for the

water park in question that came into view.

The campers all in the bus quickly stopped singing talking amongst

themselves, whispering how excited they were. Percy sighed at the

sweet relief of not having to listen to that accursed song anymore while

Thalia just smiled.

They quickly reached the place and sure enough Percy was the first

one out of the bus. He didn't mind the trip itself, that was fine, and the

singing was...manageable. It was just how damn slow everything was

going! Percy could have run the same distance in less than a minute,

so being forced to sit inside a bus that went at a snail's pace compared

to him was kind of boring.

Soon everyone gathered in front of the water park's entrance as they

all began to pair up. Percy obviously paired up with Thalia and were

put in charge of the minor demigods, it was the couple's job to make

sure they didn't do anything stupid.

They all quickly left the parking lot and approached the water park. The

entrance was a big wooden building with open walls and a roof shaped

like an umbrella with a corridor on either side leading to a small

building that was marked as the men's and women's changing room.

Edward quickly greeted the manager of the place who trated Ed like a

God, considering the man did just buy of the entire park for the day.

After exchanging a few words Ed came back to the campers who were

anxious to get going, some were bouncing on their feet in excitement.

"Alright everyone the first thing we need to do is change!" Edward

called out, "these are the changing rooms. The mens are to my left," he

pointed behind him, "and the women's are to my right. Get changed

and meet up on the other side of this building!"

The campers all nodded as they all quickly ran off to do so. Percy

opened his inventory and passed Thalia her bag which she had packed

before while he himself went into the men's changing room and quickly

got ready.

Percy came out and found that he was the first one to get ready,

obviously changing at super speed had some perks. He had chosen a

simple set of blue and black swimming trunks that reached halfway to

his knees along with a set of flip flops. His Olympus tattoo with the nine

stripes and the scar he got from Alcyoneus was on full display. He

didn't really care about the scar, he got used to seeing it, plus Thalia

thought it looked cool so that was a plus.

He quickly passed a small ticket barrier, which had been disabled since

they already knew he was meant to be here. The other side of the

building lead to a courtyard of sorts filled with a single bagel stand and

a couple of gaming stands which were filled with employees that

smiled at him.

Percy smiled back but quickly ignored them as he walked forward

passed the courtyard and towards a gift shop of sorts that was

currently closed, guess Ed didn't want the campers spending money on

it.

Percy took a deep breath, through his connection with water he could

feel everything inside this park. Every single ride in here featured

several metric tons of water being pumped in and out. Percy could feel

it all flow through the pipes below him. The park might look big above

ground, but the stuff underneath was simply massive.

"Well don't you look handsome," Percy heard his dad's voice call out.

Percy turned as sure enough there was Poseidon dressed up in his

usual blue hawaiian shirt and beige slacks with his trident in the form of

a pool noodle. The God had a couple of shades on along with a large

straw hat as he sipped from a giant slurpee.

"Dad?" Percy asked as he smiled, "what are you doing here?"

"Just came to wish you a happy birthday son," the sea God said

smiling, "Happy Birthday Percy, 14 is a very big milestone you know."

Percy chuckled, "yeah, I'm sure."

"But I must say you don't look 14," Poseidon examined Percy body, "if I

was to guess you would easily be confused by someone

older…...maybe 17."

Percy nodded, "yeah, it's a perk I obtained from fighting a monster. It

basically increases my growth causing me to reach my prime quicker."

Poseidon whistled, "nice. Though such a blessing must also have a

drawback."

Percy sighed, "it does. It also increase my, ah,well, my sexual drive,"

Poseidon snickered at Percy's blush, "but Gamer's mind helps me

keep it under check, mostly."

"And the things that Gamer's mind can't control?"

Percy blush grew redder, "I ah, I manage."

Poseidon raised an eyebrow, "Thalia?" Percy didn't say anything which

only made the God grin even wider, "I see. Well it does make sense.

Just do push it okay? I don't want to be a grandfather so soon. Well I

am already, but that's not the point."

"Dad!" Percy yelled, "seriously! Stop! We haven't even...well you

know."

Poseidon nodded, "okay fine, I'll stop, but only because I know how

embarrassing it is for you to have the sex talk with your father." Percy

grumbled but said nothing. Slowly Poseidon's smile went away as he

looked at the scar on Percy's body, "does it hurt?"

"What?" Percy asked confused before looking at where Poseidon was

staring, "on, no. Not really."

"Hum, maybe Gamer's body is keeping the pain away," Poseidon said,

"mostly scars like that...they tend to make a person feel...something."

Percy nodded, "I figured. Anyway don't' worry, I'll training every day to

become stronger, it won't happen again."

Poseidon sighed but nodded, "yes, it won't. And I am here to make

sure of that."

Percy blinked, "what do you mean?"

Poseidon said nothing as he snapped his finger summoning something

in a flash of bright light. As Percy blinked away his temporary blindness

he looked to see his dad holding up a black metal gauntlet.

"Here," Poseidon threw the gauntlet to Percy who caught it with ease.

The son of Poseidon looked it over, the gauntlet was black with greek

runes written all over it in white. Percy could understand some, mostly

the basic ones, but the rest were way too advanced for him.
