Continuation of Chapter 48

A few minutes later;

Percy arrived in camp and stopped in front of the Big House. He opened his inventory and took out the Apollo kids first.

"Alright, half of you get inside and ready the med bay, the rest stay here and carry the injured up," Percy ordered. The Apollo kids nodded and moved without argument. Lee went to the medbay while Michael stayed and helped Percy unload the injured demigods.

After that was done Percy took out everyone else and soon the entire camp was back inside their borders.

Edward had left in his car that he had drove here in while Percy went back to New York to drop his mom back home. After a promise to her to see her again as soon as everything settled down Percy quickly returned back to camp half-blood.

Ping!

Quest completed!

Save the demigods in the park!

Rewards,

+1 point for every life saved

Level 10 skill disk (2)

Map to forge of Hephaestus- Dragon

Ping!

You have saved a total of 188 lives!

148 demigods and 40 humans!

You have gained 188 points in total!

Percy smiled, maybe he should give himself an upgrade later on and maybe even finally clear out all those forges of Hephaestus. But for now he put the two skill disks he received and the map inside his inventory.

He needed to get to the war room, they were all probably in a meeting right now.

War Room;

Percy entered the war room and slid his face plate back sighing in relief. Sure enough all the head counselors along with Chiron were gathered already. Mr. D was missing, but if what Hermes said was right he was probably on Olympus right now talking about Argo.

"Is Sally safe?" Thalia, who along with everyone else had changed out of her swim wear.

"Yeah," Percy told her as he sat down in the Poseidon's cabin seat, "Lowtide."

The moment he said the deactivation phrase Percy's armour finally realised itself as it flowed back into Percy's gauntlet relieving him of the familiar load he had carried for half the afternoon.

"That is so cool," Travis said as he and his brother looked at Percy's gauntlet with stars in their eyes.

"A birthday gift from dad," Percy said removing the gauntlet and putting it in his inventory, "saved my life against Argo."

"Dude put on a shirt," Michael said looking at Percy's bare chest. Percy looked down, he was still in his swimming trunks.

"Or don't," Silena commented as she eyed Percy's abs. Charles glared at his girlfriend behaviour while Percy blushed. He did not want to come between those two.

Percy took out a shirt from his inventory and put it on, "sorry about that." Thalia huffed in disappointment while Silena did nothing at all, not with Charles glaring at her like he did.

"Anyway, not that the free show is done, let's get back to Argo," Annabeth spoke up turning the mood serious, "he's back, and judging by how long you took to deal with him I guessing he's stronger than ever?"

Percy nodded, "yeah. He got this….this speed boost or something. And he had this sort of aura made out of blue lighting, I think the two were related somehow."

"Was he faster than you?" Silena asked.

Percy nodded, "yeah, he was." The campers looked horrified at the implication that Percy just made. If he was faster than Percy there was no telling what the madman could do.

"I have never heard of blue lighting speed based powers," Chiron said with a frown, "I'll check with the Gods but I can make no promises."

"Were you able to take him?" Lee asked.

"Barely," Percy muttered, "he had a way to block all mana based attacks."

"Haki," Thalia supplied, "he was the one you were talking about when we were on the Hubbard Glacier in Alaska."

Percy nodded, "yeah. Anyway I managed to counter him, but his new speed based powers allowed to escape. I almost killed him but he teleported away, probably some kind of spell or something."

"Did it flash a bright light?" Annabeth suddenly asked as she started to flip through several pages of Argo's personal journal.

Percy blinked but nodded, "yeah it did."

"It's called a Space rope," Annabeth said taking out a page and passing the notebook to Percy who picked it up, "it's like a space key accept you can only use it once. On the plus side you don't need a door or anything to use it."

Percy looked at the book and recognized Annabeth's handwriting in the corner of the text. She had translated the paragraph. "Did you finish translating all of it?"

Annabeth shook her head, "no. I barely finished 25%, of the things I can translate, not to mention one's I can't."

"The one's you can't?"

"There are some notes written in a language none of us can identify. We have logged it in and tried to crack it again and again, but so far no luck."

Percy nodded as he looked through the book looking at Annabeth's notes. Suddenly he spotted a chapter labeled '2000 years ago.' She had only translated the heading and nothing else. Percy closed the book and passed it to Annabeth, "meet me after the meeting Annabeth, we need to talk."

The daughter of Athena looked confused but nodded.

"So what now?" Clarisse asked them all.

"Now?" Chiron repeated, "I believe it is time for you all to get some well deserved rest. We don't have anything to go on right now and compared to Kronos Argo is a secondary issue. And as mad as the man is…..we need to focus on what's important."

Everyone nodded in agreement and soon the dispersed. Thalia told Percy she would see him later as Percy meet up with Annabeth in the empty Amphitheater.

"The last time we were here you were going to confront me about keeping the great prophecy away from you," Annabeth noted with a chuckle, "hard to believe that was just three months ago."

Percy smiled, "yeah. So much has changed since them."

Annabeth nodded, "yeah…...so why did you call me here?"

"Show me the book," Percy motioned for Argo's journal which Annabeth gave to him. He turned to the page in question and gave it back to her, "what do you know about this?"

"Why?" Annabeth asked looking at the chapter Percy was talking about, "did Argo say something about it?"

Percy nodded, "yeah, he did."

Annabeth sighed, "of course he mentioned the one topic that is the most complicated to decipher."

Percy raised an eyebrow, "that hard?"

Annabeth nodded, "yeah. He basically wrote it in three languages. Ancient Greek, Egyptian and one I can't even make heads and tails off. And on top of that he wrote the words as an anagram. The Greek stuff was itself difficult to unscramble, never mind the Egyptian and the one I can't even identify."

"I see," Percy groaned, "what did you manage to find out?"

"Three words," Annabeth told him, "Will. War. Destroy."

Percy raised an eyebrow, "war will destroy?"

Annabeth shook her head, "no, will, war, destroy. In that order."

Percy formed, "what could it mean?"

"I have a theory," Annabeth told him, "I think it's a question," she motioned to the book and pointed at three underlined words, "they all appear in the same like and next to it is a question mark. Granted it is an english question mark and could not even be related to the text….but… I don't know. Something feels off about this whole thing."

Percy nodded, "yeah, it does. Listen Annabeth I don't want you to continue solving this topic, got it?"

Annabeth looked surprised, "what? Why?!"

"Because anyone who does will die," Percy wanted her. "Apparently it is a big deal in Olympus. When I asked Hermes he freaked out. He kept looking around trying to see if anyone had overheard me ask him, because technically anyone who even asks about this should be put to death."

"W-what the hades is this thing?" Annabeth looked at the book in her hands and began to shake.

"It's okay Annabeth," Percy told her and he took the book from her, "we'll never mention this, to anyone. Got it?"

Annabeth nodded, "we need to destroy it, now." Percy nodded as he tore off the pages that contained the note about what happened 2000 years ago and put it in his inventory, "don't forget to destroy that."

Percy nodded, "I won't, I promise."

Lie Succeeded!

Annabeth nodded and slowly the two friends walked away in silence.

Dinner that day was a very somber affair. People weren't really in a celebrating mood. Percy was even more angry at Argo now. Today was supposed to be a good day, a day where the demigods could relax and be kids. But even then something had to come in and fuck everything up for them.

Percy walked back to his cabin and saw Leo waiting outside for him. Percy smiled, "Hey boy."

"Bad day master?" Leo asked looking at Percy sadly.

"Kind of," Percy said sitting next to Leo on the porch, "how was your day?"

"I meet a Nymph today," Leo said wagging his tail, "she was really pretty."

Percy chuckled, "I'm sure she was. So, you coming inside?"

Leo shook his head, "no master. I want to….well if you don't want me to that's fine but-"

"Leo," Percy cut off the dog's rambling, "just tell me what you want."

Leo turned to the Forest, "I want to sleep in there tonight monster. There is something….familiar about it."

Percy smiled as he scratched under the dog's ears, "okay then. It makes sense, you are a wolf after all."

Leo barked in happiness as he got up and licked Percy's face, "thank you master!" Leo then jumped forward and ran towards the forest as fast a he could. Percy chuckled, the dog was growing up so fast. Maybe he should take him training later on, teach him a few more moves.

Percy walked into his cabin and closed the door behind him. He took out the pages he had ripped out of Argo's personal journal. He didn't want Annabeth getting involved with all of this, but that didn't mean he was going to stop.

Percy looked over the notes and sighed, if Annabeth couldn't' do it then he had no chance, obviously. If only he knew someone who…..Parallax.

Percy put the notes inside his inventory and pulled out the orb of Parallax. Fear hit him like a wave but Percy was ready for it. He pushed back and took a deep breath to ready himself. He need to frame and speak his question clearly, he wasn't going to waste this question.

"Parallax, it's me Percy. I have a question for you."

It took a minute but the entity of fear responded, "ask your question and I will answer."

Percy sighed in relief. He took a deep breath and spoke again, "what happened 2000 years ago that caused man to stop believing in God?"

Percy waited and waited as he held onto the glowing yellow ball. Suddenly Parallax spoke again, "I am not allowed to answer your question."

Percy blinked, "what? Why?!"

"Is that your next question?"

Percy shook his head, "no….thanks." Percy shoved the orb into his inventory and sighed. He didn't know why Parallax didn't want to tell him. Was because he didn't know? No...he is an entity of the Universe, he had to know! So…..why? Was because he wasn't allowed to tell him? If so by who?

The answer came clearly to Percy, 'The Fates.'

Argo kept pushing the idea of Percy being their slaves….maybe in someway he was. But he never minded working for them, after all they both wanted the same thing. But now….they were trying to limit his sight. Keep things from him, true it might be dangerous things, but he needed to know, he deserved to know.

Percy sighed lying down on his bed. He was still in his swimming trunks and his spare shirt, but Percy really wasn't in the mode to change.

'Hmm, maybe I should use that skill disk,' Percy decided, after all who didn't like leveling up their skills right?

Percy took out one level 10 skill disk and began looking over the skills he had.

'Water control? Nope. Ice? No. Shadow? No. Mana…...nah, too dangerous to suddenly level up in. I am barely getting by as it is right now. Last thing I need is it going places I can't follow. Obsering? No. Critical strike? No. Mana's sense...hmm no. I am probably going to level that up myself.'

Percy threw his head back in frustration, all of these were things he could ether level up himself or to dangerous to level up at all. If he leveled up something like ice control, it would take him weeks to get his powers under control. And seeing how anyone can attack any time Percy always needed to be in control.

Slowly Percy went down the list and his eyes fell on healing, Percy shrugged, 'might as well.'

Percy used the skill disk;

Ping!

A skill has risen by 10 levels!

Healing, Lv- 23 (0%)

Allows the user to heal any disease or ailments threatening himself or others.

Limit- 3 aliments per use, 5 targets at a time, restores 25% of MP and HP

Cost- 250 MP

Percy blinked at the new additions he got. Apart from the 50 MP lesser cost and the increase in the amount of people he can heal at once there was also a new effect of his healing powers. It restored HP and MP by 25%. That may not be much looking at it now, but in battle that could mean the difference between life and death.

Percy closed the box and took out the second skill disk. He knew logically he should use it to level up Healing again…..but he honestly didn't want to.

The way Percy saw it was that Healing was a skill he absolutely needed, something that reminded him that yes, he was in fact in a war. He never really got to use the skill disk for something fun, like not because he had to, but because he wanted to.

Before he wanted to improve his telekinesis with a skill disk, but he chose healing instead because he had to. But now…..after all of this Percy felt like he had the right to spend the disk on anything he wanted. Plus it was his birthday, so fuck it.

Percy looked through the skill list again, this time for skills that he wouldn't usually consider. There was lots of skills he could improve on. Like dancing, singing, around four different musical instruments he could practice. Cooking, Architecture, his Alcohol resistance and maybe he should even spend the disk on telekinesis, that would be so cool! Maybe the next time Argo attack he could throw a bus at him or something!

But just then Percy noticed a skill that he got a month back during his trip to Alaska, Foreplay. And the other skill he gained via photographic reflexes, sex. Thank you Sasha Grey.

Percy blushed at the idea of using a skill disk to be better at sex or foreplay. He was a teenage boy and no matter how confident he was about his fighting skills or how great his skills in the bed where, he is always going to be worried about things that involved sex.

True he and Thalia didn't really, you know, do it. But he wanted to be good for when they do do it. And even though he technically does have the moves of a male porn star he still wondered whether that was enough.

Percy spun the disk in his hand wondering what he should level up. Sex was out of the question, Thalia wasn't ready for that and he wouldn't push it. But foreplay….well they have been doing a lot of that lately.

Percy felt a blush creep on his face as he used the skill disk to level up foreplay. He could have picked fingering in particular, but foreplay gave a general bonus that Percy really wanted;

Ping!

A skill have been raised by several levels!

Foreplay, Lv- 12 (0%)

The actions you perform before sex.

60% skill bonus towards partner's orgasm.

Percy smiled at the bonus, this plus the 40% bonus he would receive when using his vibrations would guarantee Thalia came. Percy giggled sheepishly, 'boy is she going to be in for a surprise the next time we make out.'

Percy closed the boxes and laid back down on his pillow looking at his cabin roof. Percy relaxed as he slowly closed his eyes.

Knock knock!

Percy blinked them open as someone knocked on his door. 'I wonder who it is? Well maybe it's Thalia, this is usually when she would sneak over to my cabin.'

Percy quickly got off his bed and went to is door which he threw open with a grin, "well hello beautiful, I-"

Percy stopped mid sentence as he looked into two silver globes that stared back at him. Artemis stood there with a gentle smile with her hair tied back in ponytail, "I didn't realise you felt that way about me Percy. I'm touched, though your girlfriend might have a few things to say about that."

"A-Artemis?" Percy asked looking at the Goddess.

"Yes...why? Were you expecting someone else?"

Percy recognized the tone in her voice and gulped, "ah, no, no, it's just," 'quick Percy think of something!' "I thought there was a meeting in Olympus or something." 'Safe!'

Artemis nodded, "it got over. Now, are you going to invite me in?"

Percy blinked, "what? Oh, right sorry. Please come in!" Percy stepped aside letting Artemis inside while he closed the door behind her. "So ah...what's the matter?"

"Does something have to be the matter for me to visit a friend?" Artemis asked as she sat down on Percy's bed bouncing up and down, "your bed is very comfortable Percy."

Percy smiled, "thanks Arty, and no, friends can visit friends any time. But if one of those friends happens to be a Goddess and it also happened to be the other one's birthday...well you see where I am going with this."

Artemis smiled "you want a gift?"

Percy shrugged, "can't possibly imagine you're here for any other reason," 'unless it's to take me back to Olympus for knowing about the question…..shit, is it because of that? Artemis knows I would run if she came in guns blazing so did she-'

"-Relax Percy," Artemis spoke up, "I'm not here hurt you or anything."

Percy raised an eyebrow, "did you read my mind?"

Artemis chuckled, "no, I can't do that. But your fears were clearly written on your face."

Percy smiled, "okay face reader if you aren't here to arrest me and it's not to give me a gift, then why are you here?"

Artemis smiled as she snapped her fingers causing a silver box to appear in her hand. "Here, for you."

"You did get me a present!" Percy exclaimed as he carefully opened the gift.

Artemis smiled, "why are you being so gentle about it?"

"Because if I don't like it I can just return it to you for your birthday."

Artemis huffed, "are you saying I cannot select a good gift."

"No, I'm saying that you don't have very many guy friends, meaning you probably don't know what to get them."

Artemis huffed, "well now you're just being rude Percy. And for your information we Gods don't have birthdays, so ha!"

Percy blinked, "wait, for real? You guys don't have birthdays?"

Artemis shrugged, "well we do, but we don't really remember them. 3000 years is a long time you know."

Percy chuckled as he carefully removed the ribbon opening the silver box. Inside was a simple silver ring that glowed white. Percy gasped as he looked at it.

"A-Artemis, it's beautiful." Percy reached in and took the ring. He carefully put it on his right middle finger and saw that it was a perfect fit.

Ring of Artemis,

Can contact Artemis anytime

"It's made out of normal silver but I blessed it with a little bit of my magic," Artemis said smugly, "now if you are ever in danger or need my help just touch the ring and focus on me and I'll be able to talk to you. It's kind of like an instant Iris message but it's only-OPH!"

Percy hugged her so hard Artemis got the wind knocked out of her. "Thank you," Percy told her as he hugged her tightly, "it's awesome."

Artemis smiled as she hugged him back. They broke the hug and Percy sat down next to her admiring his gift, "you sure you don't want to gift it back?"

"Not on your life," Percy told her as he grinned like the cheshire cat, "this is so cool. And not at all girly, I'm proud of you Arty! You have now mastered the craft of buying jewelry for guys, a difficult and rarely sought after skill set."

Artemis smiled, "yes well I figured something like a wolf pet or an arrow head wouldn't be well received, so I thought, 'what would an idiot think is great?' And presto, a shiny object that captures the attention of small minded men."

Percy smiled, "oh look at you, insulting me. Why if you were a little better I might consider insulting you back," Percy patted her on the head as Artemis grumbled, "don't try to play with the masters kido, you'll only get burned."

Artemis crossed her arms, "you sound so much like Apollo."

Percy blushed, "yuck. Never mind then, insult me all you want I won't say a thing. Just don't compare me to that gross brother of yours."

Artemis raised an eyebrow, "you know I never did find out why you two hate each other. When I finally managed to find him he had this huge scowl on his face. He looked like he wanted to blow Olympus up."

Percy shrugged, "did he have a bruise?"

Artemis thought about it before nodding, "yeah, he did. Like a big one around his jaw. Stayed there for a day or so."

Percy grinned, "good." Artemis raised an eyebrow but remained silent. Percy sighed, "I am extremely possessive when it comes to Thalia. He was flirting with her and then implied he would also like to sleep with her, so I punched him out of Olympus."

Artemis raised an eyebrow, "well…...that's certain informative. If you ever need help punishing my brother just call. And I promise next time I see him I'll be sure to give him a new black eye."

Percy chuckled, "has he done this a lot?"

Artemis groaned, "more than you can imagine. It's like nobody is off limits to him, wife, girlfriend, husband, doesn't matter. He's like a bunny on viagra."

Percy chuckled, "then the only way for anyone to be sure Apollo won't flirt with their girlfriend would be if that girlfriend was you huh?"

Artemis blushed gold, "w-what?"

Percy grinned, "yeah, Apollo would never flirt with you, your his actual sister. Even Thalia isn't off limits to him and she's his half sister. The only one he would never flirt with or try to sleep with would be you."

Artemis blushed harder a she tried and failed to keep her golden hue down, "w-well I mean yes, but I would never-get a boyfriend, that's just ridiculous!"

Percy shrugged, "I don't know. Maybe now that you know boys aren't that bad to have as a friend you might eventually find the right guy in the future. Why did you become a virgin Goddess anyway?"

Artemis sighed, "well it's along story. Men back then were…..unkind to say the least. They are alright now, you could be considered one of the good ones, if you weren't so annoying. But after you do something for 3000 years it kind of gets hard to break out of it."

"Would you say you are currently looking for a boyfriend?" Percy asked with a smirk.

"W-what?! No!"

"Why not? It would be cute, you and your prince charming with me and Thalia, we could go on so many double dates."

Artemis blushed as she looked away, "s-shut up."

Percy smiled as he ruffled the girl's hair, "yeah yeah. You are so easy to embarrass."

Artemis growled, "I know, I try to not be but apparently being with idiots like you makes me immune."

Percy grinned, "glad to know I make you weak."

"And why is that a good thing?" Artemis snapped back.

"Because that means you trust me enough to drop your defenses," Percy smiled, "usually that's the first things people do when they are friends with someone, but I think you can be an exception to that."

Artemis blush slowly went away as a happy smile came up, "well, yes. I do trust you. You're very….easy to be around."

Percy nodded, "so I've been told."

Artemis smiled, "I'm slightly jealous of Thalia. She gets you all the time while I rarely get any time to spend with you."

"Maybe I can come to your Hunters camp or something," Percy said with a chuckle, "maybe take on the role of a Handyman or something."

"Hmm, like a guardian?" Artemis asked, "your task would be to protect us while we slept and help us against dangerous animals."

Percy grin grew wider, "sound's awesome, do I get special benefits?"

"Well you get to see me every day, isn't that a benefit?"

Percy shrugged, "I can live with that. So, where do I sign up?"

Artemis laughed, "I'll admit it is a good idea on paper Percy, but one step into the Hunter's camp and you will become a pincushion. Just because I like you doesn't mean the rest of the Hunters will. Some….some have really suffered at the hands of men."

Percy smiled, he recognized the hurt tone of voice Artemis used. He quickly changed to topic, " so maybe we should set up a time to always meet up. You know like that time on Odysseus ship, just before dawn but after the night. You call me through this awesome ring that you gave me," Percy flashed it again, "and I'll show up."

Artemis nodded, "that would be nice. How about….every alternate Sunday of every month, we meet up at the beach or somewhere and we can...hang out."

Percy smiled, "that would be nice Arty. I look forward to it."

Artemis smiled, "great, see you then," she then stood up and slowly started to glow brighter and brighter, "and don't call me Arty!"

Percy blinked his eyes open as Artemis teleported away. He chuckled, 'guess I'm going to have to call her that more often.'

Knock knock!

Percy stood up surprised at that, 'did she forget something?' Percy wondered as he went to the door and opened it. Instead of Artemis he saw Thalia standing there with a bag under her arm.

"Hey you," Percy said kissing Thalia deeply, "had a feeling I was going to see you soon."

Thalia chuckled, "it's your birthday Percy, you really think I wouldn't have shown up?"

Percy smiled, "as if you wouldn't be here if it wasn't my birthday."

Thalia chuckled, "true," Percy stepped to the side allowing Thalia to wake in and lie down on the bed. Thalia took a deep breath was was surprised as what she smelt, "why does your bed smell like pine and vanilla?"

Percy smiled "Artemis was in here a few seconds ago, wanted to wish me a happy birthday," Percy said showing Thalia his new ring, "gave this to me."

"Damn Percy, I thought I was the one who was supposed to be obsessed over jewelry."

"Oh shut up," Percy said getting on the bed pushing Thalia down kissing her deeply.

"Percy," Thalia broke the kiss, "what exactly is your….relationship with Artemis."

Percy smiled, "do you really think me and the Goddess of virginity are anything more than friends?"

Thalia blushed, "well I know but I mean if you thought she was better than me I wou-"

"-Thalia," Percy cut her off.

"Yeah?" the daughter of Zeus looked at him with pleading eyes. The kind Percy had seen before, he knew exactly what to say.

"I love you, and no one less," Percy told her as he kissed her forehead, "I would never cheat on you," he kissed her lips, "I would never even consider it," he kissed her neck, "I love you too much."

"I'm sorry Percy," Thalia whispered, "I just-"

"-It's okay," Percy wrapped his hand around her hips, "I know. I love you Thalia."

"I love you Percy," Thalia said kissing him hard on the lips, "and I don't care who has her eyes set on you. If she wants to get to you she will have to get through me."

Percy chuckled, "I don't really thinks that's necessary-"

"-No, it is," Thalia looked into his eyes, "you mean everything to me Percy. I would rather die than lose you."

Percy looked saddened as he spoke, "if you want I won't see Artemis again. If that's what has you worried. I'm sure she would understand."

"No Percy don't be silly," Thalia laughed, "I know you are the only friend Artemis has. I would never rob someone of you."

"I'm honored you think so highly of me," Percy said with a shit eating grin.

"Ass," Thalia smacked his shoulder lightly, "but I mean it Percy. She's just like me, she needs a friend and besides, I doubt the Goddess of virginity wants to date you. Kind of not her thing."

"Are you saying I'm unattractive?" Percy asked with a frown, "because I kind of feel like you are."

Thalia chuckled, "yes Percy, you are very ugly. In fact you have a face only I can love, so you don't really have much options on who to date."

Percy smiled as he bent down, "good," he whispered into her ear, "because I don't want any other options."

Thalia smiled as she bite into his ear as he kissed her neck giving her several hickies along her neck. Slowly Percy went lower and lower as he kissed her collarbone as his slowly slid one arm under her shirt.

"Wait," Thalia called out, "I want to do something first."

Percy nodded as he stepped back. Thalia immediately went to the cover she brought with her and pulled out a black and blue leather jacket. Percy looked at it in wonder as Thalia handed it to him.

The jacket was black with a trident stitched right in the center so that the zip would pass through the middle prong. The sides were grey and made out of a stretchable material while blue lines made it seem more streamlined. Over all it reminded Percy of Thalia and the way her hair looked.

"It's to replace the one you lost in Alaska," Thalia told him as she sat down besides him, "I kind of guilted my dad into making this for me the last time he visited."

Percy looked at her, "Zeus came to visit you?"

Thalia nodded, "yeah, a couple of weeks ago."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I don't know," Thalia shrugged, "kind of wanted to figure out how I get on my own you know? Do some soul searching."

Percy nodded as he squeezed her hand tightly, "I get it Thalia. So...what did he want?"

"To talk," Thalia sighed, "he wanted to be my dad I guess. But that's not really important. I managed to guilt him into charming this jacket with a few features I thought up. Go on, Observe it."

And Percy did just that;

Percy's jacket,

A leather jacket which had been blessed by Zeus

Durability- 400/400

Resistant to weather modulations

Self repair

Water/ Fire resistant

+ 200 defence against magical attacks

Percy's jaw was on the floor at everything he read, "Thalia this is….this is amazing."

The girl blushed, "thanks. I just wanted something to show you how-" Percy didn't let her finish as he smashed his lips against hers cutting the daughter of Zeus mid sentence. Percy floated the jacket to the table with his mind and did the same for the silver ring Artemis gave him.

Percy finally stopped as he looked into her eyes, "Thalia you gave me an amazing gift today."

"Percy I know the jacket is cool and all but-"

"-No," Percy shook his head, "I don't' mean the jacket. I mean the trip to the water park. You gave me something I didn't even realise I needed. You made me happy Thalia Grace in a way I would have never allowed myself to be."

Thalia sighed, "yeah….but it was ruined thanks to Argo."

Percy shook his head, "no, it wasn't. He doesn't matter Thalia, he is barely a bug in the windshield of our life. All I care about is what you did for me. You make my life perfect Thalia, you're the ying to my yang, you make me…..you make me happy."

Thalia smiled at Percy as she grabbed his head and brought his down to a deep kiss. She grabbed his shirt and pulled it up throwing it to the side. Percy kissed Thalia's neck as she moaned in approval.

He grabbed her jacket and took it off her throwing it to the table. Thalia then grabbed her shirt helm and pulled it over her head revealing a very sexy blue lingerie that Percy remembered seeing in the mall at Victoria's secret.

"Did you get that when we went to the mall?" Percy asked marveling at how amazing she looked. The bra teased her breasts through the seethrough fabric while pushing her breasts closer.

"Yeah," Thalia muttered as Percy kissed her nipple through her bra, "I got it when you were distracted at Best Buy."

"Well I'm glad I was," Percy said as he kissed Thalia slowly bringing his hand over her jeans rubbing her clit over it.

Thalia moaned into the kiss as she wrapped her hands around his neck and moaned more and more as Percy started to rub her faster and faster. Thalia could feel her climax coming already when Percy suddenly stopped.

Thalia broke the kissed, "why did you stop," she asked in a begging tone.

"Because I want to make this special," Percy told her as he kissed her neck before slowly going downwards. He kissed her tits and slowly ran his tongue down her abd. He reached her jeans as pressed his mouth on the button, with a flick of his tongue he had it unbuttoned.

Percy dug his fingers around the loops of her jeans and slowly pulled it down her fat tighs. Percy threw the jeans to the side as he ran his hands up and down Thalia's legs. They were shaking as Percy ran his fingers towards the inner thighs.

Percy kissed one of her legs as he pushed it open, slowly tracing kiss from her knee to her halfway to her core. Percy could feel the heat of her skin of his lips, he could smell her already.

He then turned to the other leg doing them same to it. Percy slid both of his hands underneath Khali's legs and held apart. Percy kissed her inner thigh again, this time he bite into it long enough to form a hickey.

Thalia's legs started to spasm all over due to Percy's constant teasing, but Percy pushed forward using his shoulders to lock the legs in place. Percy squeezed his palms and slapped them on Thalia's perky ass causing it vibrate in his grip.

"Percy" Thalia begged, "stop teasing."

Percy smiled as he looked up to see her desperate face. Thalia was holding her hand to her face, too embarrassed to even look at what Percy was doing.

"No," Percy told her gently as he moved her arms away from her facing using telekinetic powers, "I want you to look."

Thalia's face was red, her eyes were hazy with lust and focused immediately on Percy's own. She slowly stopped resisting and put her arms to the side as Percy smiled, "good girl."

Percy bent down and looked at Thalia's soaking wet panties. They were blue, just like her bra. Percy reached up and caught the band in his mouth. He slowly let go of Thalia's legs allowing her to bring them close as he slowly brought the panties down with his mouth.

Once they were off Thalia didn't want to open her legs again, she was to embarrassed. Percy smile, and kissed her thighs again. He slowly traced his hand along her inner thighs and pushed her legs to the side again showing Percy what he wanted to see.

Thalia had no hair down here, ever since they started doing them she had been taking care of herself, something Percy also did. Her lips down below were so thin and pink, Percy doubted he would even fit in there.

Percy locked her legs over his shoulder as Percy slowly brought his head closer. He took a deep breath and recognized the smell immediately as Thalia's. He had spent so much time with her, he was sure it was on him as well.

Percy extended his tongue and slowly licked her entrance. An explosion of taste rocketed into his mouth as he recognized the taste of salty strawberries.

Percy pressed closer as he began to dig deeper and deeper into her core with every sweep of his tongue. Percy relied only on his instinct and the power of his gaming abilities as he traced the tip of his tongue up and down.

Percy then found Thalia's entrance and slowly stuck his tongue inside.

"Fuck!" Thalia gasped as her hands went to Percy's hair grabbing it and pressing it deeper between her legs.

Percy smiled as he began to stretch out his tongue licking every corner he could reach. He slowly began to increase his pace as he felt more and more of her moist flesh on his tongue.

Percy squeezed Thalia's ass and pulled her closer allowing his tongue further reach. Slowly instincts began to take over as Percy ran his tongue along her tunnel rubbing against it.

Percy then felt something at the very tip of his tongue a rough patch of flesh that seemed to stand out. The moment his tongue touched it Thalia gasped as she bent her body upwards in surprise.

'Found it,' Percy grinned to himself as he found her G-spot. It was at the very edge of his reach, but Percy refused to stop as he kept digging into her flesh sending wave after wave of pleasure through Thalia's body.

Percy suddenly got an idea as he began to channel some of his earthquake mana into his tongue causing it to vibrate.

Thalia moaned as Percy began to eat her out, but the moment his vibration tongue touched her G-Spot Thalia shrieked in surprise as her legs started to shake violently. Percy didn't let go though as he grabbed onto her thick thighs with both hands and began to hit her G-Spot again and again.

Ping!

"Percy!" Thalia yelled out, "don't stop! For the love of the Gods don't stop!" Thalia's finger dug into Percy's hair as she pushed him deeper between her legs. Thalia then crossed her legs over Percy's head locking it in place as Percy found himself stuffed between her thick thighs.

Percy hit her G-Spot again and again as his vibrating tongue cause Thalia to spasm over and over again. Percy could even feel her walls tightening around his tongue as slowly they built up to her orgasm.

Percy shot his tongue out and finally hit the G-Spot right in the center. He then wiggled the tip of his tongue over and over again causing Thalia's spasms to slowly increase in time.

"PERCY!" Thalia suddenly screamed as her core erupted in her cum flooding Percy's mouth. Percy slowly removed his tongue out of her, very slowly. Thalia felt it slowly draw out as she uncrossed her legs over Percy's face.

Percy removed his head from between Thalia's legs as he licked his wet lips, she had gotten everywhere. Her orgasm had been so extreme that she had covered the entire of Percy's lower face. Percy licked the juices up with his tongue, "you taste nice Thalia."

The demigoddess in question had one hand on her head while another was on her stomach. She was panting as sweat covered her entire body from head to toe. Her legs were weak as she lazily took them off of Percy's shoulder and placed them on the side. "How did you learn to do that?"

"Photographic reflexes," Percy told her with a grin.

"What else did you learn?" Thalia asked with a grin.

Percy smiled, "nothing useful."

"Well, I guess it's my turn," Thalia said with a smile as she got up and pushed Percy down. She sat on his abdomen letting her juice flow over his stomach. She reached behind and took off her bra throwing it to the side.

Percy looked at them and grinned. He rubbed his fingers over her nipples sending mild vibrations through them.

"Stop," Thalia moaned as she slowly got turned on again, "I'm supposed to be turning you one."

"Well then you're going to have to work for it," Percy told her as he lowered one hand to her pink lips before rubbing it. He quickly found the clitoris and sent a wave of vibration through it.

"N-not fair," Thalia said as she gasped in excitement, "you shouldn't be allowed to use powers."

Percy grinned, "all's fair in love and war."

Thalia moaned as Percy grabbed her ass with his other hand smacking it hard causing her ass to ripple. Thalia slowly moved down as she began to trail kisses down' Percy's body.

She was now right below Percy's dick, she could see it bulging in his pants just waiting to spring out. Thalia reached slowly dug her fingers into the elastic and pulled the trunks down in one swoop releasing Percy's dick causing it to swing out and slap her in the face.

Thalia removed Percy's pants as she looked on the underside of his dick. It was so thick and veiny, it's top was a darker shade than the rest as Thalia licked her lips in anticipation.

"It looks bigger," Thalia commented as she smelt his scent, so acidic, so raw. Thalia could feel her cunt throb, it was still coming down from it's orgasm, and was very sensitive.

"I think Goblin's Growth is a-affecting it," Percy stammered as he felt her breath on the underside of his dick, "b-but I'm not sure."

Thalia nodded as she slowly wrapped her right hand around it getting a good grip on him. Thalia gulped as she slowly extended her tongue and began to lick it from the bottom up.

Percy shuddered feeling the way Thalia's tongue went up his members. Slowly Thalia began to jerk him off with her hand, going faster and faster. Percy felt himself twitch in her grip, he wanted more, he needed more.

Thalia slowly brought her mouth above his tip and slowly reached out with her tongue. She licked the very tip sending a shiver down Percy's body. Thalia tasted something salty, like the kind you find in salted butter. It was so creamy that Thalia could feel it down passed her tongue and into her throat.

Percy groaned feeling Thalia lick his precum. He wanted to grab her head and shove it down his dick, but he didn't want to choke her. Suddenly Thalia closed her mouth over his dick as she sucked on the head.

Thalia slowly bobbed her head up and down as she removed her hand from his dick placing it on his thick thighs for support. She then slammed her throat down on his dick swallowing half of it in one go.

Percy felt her warm mouth on him as he began to trust his hips in and out of her wet entrance. Thalia then pulled back slurping her saliva off of Percy's dick leaving on the head inside as she bobbed her head up and down licking the very tip.

She then mashed her lips on his dick keeping her teeth away from the meat as she covered him with her drool. She then showed her head down embedding her throat on his twitching member.

"Fuck Thalia!" Percy yelled out in excitement as his hand automatically went to her head. He reached around her head and grabbed it. He began to guide her up and down as Thalia licked him whole.

Drool flowed down his shaft and gathered around his balls as Thalia began to swallow him deeper and deeper. She then tried to swallow him whole when suddenly she found him hitting the back of her throat.

Thalia gagged as she let go of his shaft with a loud pop. He lips were covered in saliva as she slurped it into her mouth.

"Goddamn," Percy growled as Thalia began to jerk him off with her hands. Percy's rod was wet from her spit, the sound of her beating his wet meat was like music to his ears.

Thalia felt him twitch in her hands as she immediately swallowed him again, this time Percy's musk sent through her nose and into her brains. She could think of nothing else except how he smelt, how he tasted.

Thalia drew back her head when suddenly Percy thrusted his hips up to meet her mouth. Thalia was surprised as she tried to move when Percy started to fuck her mouth with his dick thrusting faster and faster.

More and more droll gathered along his shaft as Percy slowly increased his pace. He felt the tip of his dick hit the back of her mouth.

Thalia slowly started to embrace this feeling, she loved the feeling of Percy filling her mouth as his musk and precum dominated her senses. She then finally pulled away keeping only his head in her mouth a she began to dig into his opening with her tongue.

"Shit!" Percy cried out as he felt Thalia lick his hole. He could feel her trying to shove it inside and felt his climax slowly approaching.

"Thalia I'm going to cum!" Percy yelled out. Instead of removing her head Thalia simply continued by shoving him down her throat again. Percy felt himself twitch as Thalia began to massage her balls with her free hand.

She then pulled off of Percy's dick and licked his shaft slowly licking from the bottom to the top. She used her free hand to grip his head and jerk him off faster and faster.

Percy felt his cum slowly travel up his erect rod and explode out in a burst of white. Thalia's hand and hair were covered in it as some dripped down the shaft or onto her face.

Thalia licked the cum on Percy's dick cleaning him fully with her tongue. She then brought her hand to her mouth and began licking it clean. Percy twitched at the sight as Thalia closed her eyes in excitement. She slurped all of his sperm into mouth swallowing him like he had swallowed her.

"Delicious," Thalia muttered as she closed her mouth around his head. She then began to suck out all of the sperm that was still inside. When she was done Thalia began to lick Percy clean before giving one last jerk to see if any was left.

"That was amazing," Percy said through bated breath as Thalia placed her head on his open arms.

"You taste like salted butter," Thalia said as she dug into Percy's side.

"Well you taste like salty strawberries," Percy told her as he quickly used his water control to remove all the leftover sperm on Thalia's person. "Where did you learn to do that?"

"I practised on a cucumber. Plus Annabeth let me borrow a few books."

"Damn, it's always the quiet ones," Percy looked down and saw Thalia still playing with his limp member, "you do realise if you continue doing that I'm going to get hard again yeah?"

"Oh please," Thalia rolled her eyes, "I know your limits Percy. You might be amazing at everything but you are still a human. You can't-" Thalia paused mid sentence as she felt Percy's dick slowly harden in her hand. Before long it stood fully at mast.

"You of all people should know not to underestimate me Thalia," Percy growled into her ears sending a shiver through the girl. Percy reached behind her and grabbed her ass spanking it hard. "Now you've gone and made it hard again. What exactly do you plan to do about this?"

Thalia grinned, "we aren't going to get any sleep tonight are we?"

Percy grinned, "hell no."

Back in the Water park;

A harsh wind blew past the water park ruffling the blue hair of a woman who stood in the middle of the damage park. She looked down at the fissure created in the middle of the park, "he really needs to learn some control."

"You're telling me," The Collector grumbled as he walked over the rubble dirtying his fine pants.

"Oh don't sound so grumpy bro," the woman smiled looking around at all the damage, "you need get used to moving on your feet again."

"Bro? You haven't called me that in years."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"Well for me, yes," the Collector looked around at the damage caused and sighed, "you know when you told me this park was going to be a solid investment when I bought it I thought you meant something along the lines of profit or even because this place was important or something."

"This place is important brother of mine," the blue haired woman smiled as she traced her sulphuric eyes along the ground looking for something, "this is where it will all begins."

"I just wish he didn't have to wreck the place," The Collector grumbled kicking away a metal pipe, "he's like a fuckign wrecking ball."

"Yes well….there," the woman pointed with her sulphuric eyes narrowed. The Collector walked up to her and looked at what she was pointing at. It was a stain of blood on the exact spot Argo was before he disappeared.

"How do you know it's his blood?" The Collector asked as he approached it.

"Because I can feel his energy rolling off it," the woman commented as the Collector took out a blunt syringe and started to suck out the blood and pour it into a crystal bottle. Once all of it was gathered the man shock the blood causing blue lighting to flow around the container.

"It looks like it reacts to kinetic energy," The Collector spoke as he showed the vial to the woman who nodded.

"That's it," she glared at the blood but never touched it, "even now after being away from it's host for so long it still contains so much power. Argo really does have no idea what he did to himself."

"And you think we might find out?" the red eyed man asked as he put the vial away for later observation.

"I think we don't have a choice," the woman spoke as she looked up at the sky, "this was the beginning. In a few months time it will end. Percy needs all the help we can give him. He may have the powers of a videogame given to him by the Fates themselves, but he still need our help."

The Collector nodded, "I'm with you all the way sister."

The woman smiled, "thank you brother."

"By the way out of curiosity what exactly is our hero doing right now?" The Collector asked as the two slowly walked out of the park leaving no evidence of their presence behind.

"Right now? Well he's currently making his girlfriend scream his name out loud. Believe me, her throat is going to be sore in the morning."
