Chapter 90:
Percy shrugged, "that is one weird god." He then followed Luke into a
Starbucks as they ordered a drink. Percy got a cappuccino, while Luke got
a double shot vanilla mocha cocoa with whipped cream and extreme form.
Yeah, needless to say Luke is basic as fuck. Grover on the other hand got
a black coffee which he spiked with a little bit of nectar when no one was
looking.
The three sat near the entrance with a view of the door, in case monsters
managed to find them. The three enjoyed their drinks as Percy felt his
worries wash away. "You know what this was a good idea," Percy said with
a smile, "I feel better already."
Luke smiled, "see what I tell you? Starbucks is the best."
Grover laughed, "says the basic white girl."
"What was that?" Luke asked with narrowed eyes.
"N-nothing!"
"What? You want me to Iris message Juniper and tell her you have been
thinking about Nymph's and their….help me out here Percy what was it?"
"'Healthy bodies'" Percy supplied.
"Right, their 'healthy bodies'. Are you sure you want me to do that Grover?"
"NO! Please no!" grover yelled out in a panic.
"Then tell me, whose basic white girl?"
"Me, I'm a basic white girl."
"You're goddamn right."
Percy laughed at this and then suddenly an idea hit, "wait! Why don't we
Iris message him!"
"Who?" Luke asked confused.
"Edward Neak!" Percy exclaimed, "let's just Iris him and ask him fro the
chains."
"What makes you think he would be willing to negotiate with us?"
"Ah…..I don't know. But we have to try something!"
Luke sighed and then nodded, "okay let's do it."
They finished their drinks and quickly went to the alley next to the shop.
Percy took out a water bottle and made it into steam as a rainbow slowly
appeared.
Grover then finished out a drachma and tossed it in, "Oh Iris goddess of
the rainbow accept my offering. Show us Edward Neak, son of Hermes."
The waited for the image to appear but then a voice came out of the
rainbow, "the person you are trying to reach is unavailable at this time.
Please try later." The rainbow then tossed out the drachma into Grover's
waiting arms.
"Well shit," Luke exclaimed throwing his arms up in the air.
"Wait what does this mean?"Percy asked.
"It means he has some way of blocking Iris's powers," Luke explained as
he began leading the group out of the alley and back onto the street.
"You can do that?"
"Yeah pretty easily actually. Just need enough power for it. that's the
reason people can't just call up the gods willy nilly."
"Did you just say 'willy nilly?'" Percy asked with a smirk.
"Why? Isn't that cool anymore?" Luke asked.
"Ah, guys," Grover said trying to get their attention.
"Yeah man it's totally not cool," Percy said ignoring Grover.
"Really? When I was your age it was the coolest thing one could say."
"Guys," Grove Tried again.
"Wait how old are you? 42?" Percy smirked.
"Hey! I'll have you know-"
"GUYS!" Grover roared out causing the two to turn back.
"What?" Luke asked.
"I found him," Grover then pointed to a newspaper stand on the side of the
road. Percy and Luke turned and on the cover of The Times was a picture
of a well dressed man in a black suit. He had black hair and grey eyes and
on his face was a smile that can found on Luke and every son of Hermes
back in camp. Below written in bold was; 'Edward Neak, the genius of
Boston.'
"You have got to be kidding me," Percy said in a dazed tone. They quickly
purchased the magazine and sat down on a bench reading all that was
written about Edward Neak.
The man had a mysterious past, most demigods did, and the first time the
public caught wind of him was when he was 17. He had just designed a
website which people complain to the government about their situation.
This lead to hundreds to domestic violence cases being reported via this
website and even common problem like fixing a sink. He single handedly
created a virtual platform for the whole city of Boston where people could
interact with anyone they wanted.
He then spent most of his time creating new methods of security leading to
the foundation of Half-Blood Inc. the leading monopoly in Boston for
security.
Percy looked at this and a light bulb light up in his head. This was why he
got a familiar feeling when he read Edward's name. The guy was rich and
not a dick, which was rare. Percy had read about him before, during Yancy
academy, Nancy even did a project on him.
"So this is the guy whose ass we need to kick," Luke said as he finished
reading the article.
"Holy shit," Grover said with an open mouth, "if what this thing says is true,
this guy is a bloody millionaire!"
Percy nodded and got up, "doesn't matter. This Edward guy seems okay
enough, but we still have a quest to finish."
Grover sighed, "okay then. So where to?"
"Where all rich people go during this time of the day," Percy replied as he
hailed a cab, "his office."
The building that hosted Half-Blood Inc. was huge. It had the company's
name in bronze above the door and the lobby was filled with greek
paintings and statues. This Edward guy was really pushing it with all this
Greek stuff.
Chañter 91:
As the entered they were searched by two security guards, let's call
them…..dumb and dumber. Percy used the Mist to conceal some of the
divine stuff in their bags, like the Nectar and Ambrosia, and the two let
them through.
Percy and the others got into a lift and pressed the top floor button, what?
He is the owner and CEO of a very powerful company, of course he would
be in the top.
The doors opened revealing a woman with blonde hair sitting behind a
grey desk. All around the room where paintings of Hermes, okay this guy
was obsessed with this stuff. The woman saw the three boys and smiled,
"hello. Can I help you?"
Luke took charge as he put on a charming smile, "ah yes. You see me and
my friends here have a dilbert for Mr. Edward," he then waved his hand
over his backpack manipulating the Mist, "we need to see him."
The blond woman continued smiling as she looked at the bag, "that's a
bag."
Luke looked stumped, he waved his fingers again, "no this is a box."
"No….that's a bag."
Luke sighed in defeat, 'a clear sighted mortal great.' "Just tell Edward his
family is here to see him."
"I was unaware Mr. Neak had family," the blonde said in surprise.
"Yeah. I'm his half-brother, and those two are his cousins," Luke said
pointing at Percy and Grover who waved.
"Hm, you do have the same smile as him," the secretary said, "okay I'll tell
him. By the way whatever drugs your own please make sure Mr. Neak
doesn't find out, he hates the stuff."
"What? I'm not on any drugs!"
"You just pointed to your bag and called it a box," the blonde explained
with a raised eyebrow.
"Ju-just call him, okay?" Luke said with a sigh as he walked away to a
laughing Percy and Grover. "Shut up!"
Percy and Grover agreed to stop and the three then sat down on the couch
in the corner of the room and waited. Soon, after what felt like forever, the
blonde woman called them over, "Mr. Neak will see you now."
Luke muttered, "finally," under his breath as they walked to the door on the
other side of the room, "look guy's while we are in there let me do all the
talking. Maybe we can convince this guy to help us instead of kicking his
ass."
Percy and Grover nodded, "lead on."
The door lead to an office which had glass windows instead of walls on two
sides, leading to an amazing view over the Boston skyline. There, standing
behind a large desk, was a man in a grey suit whose back was turned to
them.
'Drama queen,' Percy thought as the man slowly turned around to face
them.

The son of Hermes, he ran away from camp when he was young and
built himself an empire using his skills as a son of Hermes. He now
owns a powerful company and uses it to try and help whoever he can.
A nice guy at heart, but seriously, do not trust him with you food.
Dude's a stress eater.
Edward Neak then smiled a familiar smile, "I heard a little brother of mine
wanted to speak to me." Edward had a old smiling face, if Percy was to
guess he looked around 30 years old, making him the oldest demigod
Percy has ever seen.
Luke stepped up, "my name is Luke Castellan, I'm a son of Hermes."
"Edward Neak," then gave stretched his hand out which Luke shook, "now
how did you know I was a son of Hermes? I kept that secret well hidden
and away from public eye."
"Well hidden?" Percy asked with a look of disbelife, "bull shit! You have
Greek painting and statues littered all over your lobby and a 8 foot tall
statue of Hermes right outside."
Edward shrugged, "I was hiding in plain sight."
Luke sighed, "okay looked we found you because we need your help in our
quest."
Edward's eyes light up with a spark of mischief, "oh is this a questing
party? How exciting! But that still doesn't explain how you found me out."
"With this," Luke then handed Edward the note they found in Hephaestus's
forge.
Edward looked at it and smiled, "ah yes. Uncle Hephaestus' forge. I
remember that. You have no idea how difficult it was to sneak in there, get
the chain and get out without activating the giant robot snake. Who even
builds something like that in the first place?"
"We know," Luke said with a sigh, "we recently got very...personally with
the thing."
"You actually fought that thing?" Edward asked impressed.
"More like ran away," Luke replied as the two half brothers nodded in
memory of the robot.
"So what do you need?"
"We need the chains," Luke replied frankly.
"Well okay then, how about….no."
"Why not?"
"Well basically their mine and I don't want to give them to you."
"Well actually their Hephaestus," Percy cut in, "and I am sure he would
love to know you have them."
"Are you threatening me?" Edward asked with narrowed eyes.
"Basically...yeah," Percy replied back shurgging.
Edward smirked as he sat down in his seat, "well good luck with that."
Chapter 92:
Percy frowned, "look we need your help. I promise I'll give the chains back
after we are done using it."
Edward raised an eyebrow, "really? You promise?"
Percy nodded, "yes I do."
"Do you swear on the Styx?"
Percy was about to open his mouth when Luke cut in. "Percy wait," Luke
interrupted, "you don't know what you are doing. If you swear on the Styx
you will be making an unbreakable promise, and if you do break it
something bad will happen to you, something really bad."
Edward laughed, "he doesn't even know that? What type of idiots did the
Gods send on this stupid quest of theirs."
Percy got angry, he was pissed beyond belief. Gamer's minds kicked in
and helped him control himself but that didn't change the fact that Percy
wanted to slap Edward across the face, "look here asshat, the Gods did
not send me. I am doing this quest to find my mom and bring her back."
"Really?" Edward looked intrigued, "so you didn't get a quest from the
Oracle sending you to get something or another for the Gods?"
"Yeah I did, but I don't give a damn about that. All I care about is getting my
mom back."
"And where is she right now?"
Percy looked Edward died in the eyes and in a serious tone replied, "in the
Underworld."
Edward looked surprised, "w-what?!"
"Hades kidnapped my mom and is holding her for ransom. He want's the
lightning bolt of Zeus, which he thinks I stole. So I need the chains to
capture Hades and get my mom back, because I didn't steal the damn
lightning bolt."
"Who the hell are you kid?"
"My name is Percy Jackson, I am the son of Poseidon."
Edward looked at Percy, at his face, eyes and then smiled and threw his
head back laughing, "haha! Oh Gods this is amazing! You're like a modern
day Orpheus!"
Percy grimaced at the comparison, it was similar. Orpheus went to Hades
to bring back his lover and he was going to bring back his mom, only
difference is Orpheus failed, he wouldn't. "So will you help me?"
Edward looked at the three kids in front of him and then got up and paced
around his large office. The silence hung in the air for a long time before
Edward spoke, "do you know I named this place Half-Blood Inc.?"
"No I don't," Percy and Luke replied with Grover simply shaking his head.
"It's because of Hera," Edward explained, "her contribution to camp is just
as important as the other gods there. You see while she couldn't have
demigods of her own, she still loved them all. It's just Zeus she hates and
by extension some of his children. But when camp Half-Blood was built
Hera took this opportunity to protect her new family. She placed a spell
over it, this spell influenced everyone there to consider the people there
family. It wouldn't affect everyone there directly, more like made way for
them to think in such a way."
Percy looked stumped. So did he like camp because of this spell or
because he liked them? No. Wait, his Gamer's mind made him immune to
tricks like that so he must just like camp because he does.
"When I left camp I never wanted to return, the way the unclaimed were
treated were inhuman, neglected, forgotten. I didn't want to see that
anymore, so I came here. I used my demigod skills and built my empire.
Whenever I can I help this city but for now this is my home. But that being
said, I still love camp Half-Blood. Despite how fucked up it is."
"But things have changed now," Grover replied in a pleading tone, "people
are being treated better."
"Sure they are," Edward replied with a dismissing wave, "they will try, but in
the end the unclaimed will remain the unclaimed."
"No, they aren't," Luke spoke up finally as he looked right in his half
brother's eyes, "the unclaimed are no longer unclaimed."
"What? How is that possible?"
"It's because of Percy," Luke then turned to the son of Poseidon, "he came
into camp and the first night there defeated the Minotaur. The second night
he revealed himself to be the son of Poseidon and the next night told each
and everyone of the unclaimed there just who their godly parent was."
"WHAT?!" Edward yelled out loud, "how did you do that?"
"I just… I just knew I guess. I can't really explain it, I just get a feeling from
demigods that helped me identify who was how."
Luke nodded, "yup, though that was a lucky guess you made when finding
out Ethan Nakamura's mom, serious how did you feel he was the son of
balance and vengeance?"
Percy shrugged, "he just felt very balancy to me, and did you see his
eyebrows?" Percy shivered, Ethan had some big ass eyebrows.
"Look why should I believe a word you are saying?" Edward interrupted
them, "it would be nice if they were treated fairly, but that only happens in
fairy tales, and this isn't a fairy tale."
"I Luke Castellan swear on the Synx that everything I just said about Percy
and the unclaimed was the truth," the blond son of Hermes said and just
then thunder cracked outside drawing everyone's attention to the clear
blue sky.
"Ah, is that supposed to happen?" asked Percy worried.
"Yes it is," Edward replied as he turned to a smirking Luke, "since your still
alive you must be telling the truth."
Luke nodded, "told you so."
Edward then looked at Percy and grinned, "so...son of Poseidon huh?"
"Yup," Percy replied.
"Fine, I'll help you guys get the chains."
Percy fist pumped, "yes!" But then something popped up in his head, "wait,
what do you mean you will help us get the chains?"
Edward then grew a sheepish smiled as he rubbed the back of his head, "I,
ah…. kind of sold it off."
"WHAT?!" the three questers yelled out loud causing Edward's grin to
widen.
Half and hour later Percy and his team found themselves in Edwards limo
as they headed to downtown Boston. "I still can't believe you sold the
freaking chains of Hephaestus!" Percy yelled out.
"Hehe," Edward rubbed his head again, "I told you I needed the cash, I
was just starting up Half-Blood Inc. and well...it was either that or be a
stripper and let me tell you I may have the body of a stripper but I got none
of the moves."
Luke snickered, "yeah I can imagine. We Hermes kids aren't know for
being graceful."
Percy nodded at that, "okay so who did you sell it to again?"
"His name is Biggy. He's the informant for Boston."
"And what does he...ah inform?"
Realization dawned on Edward, "oh right you guys don't know. It's okay, it
took me a years to even find out about them"
"Who is them?"
"Tell me what happens to clear the sighted mortals? Like the ones that can
see monsters roaming the streets day to day?"
"They just...ah…. I don't know."
Chapter 93:
"Well most live normal lives, not believing what they see. But the rest, the
rest do something about it. There are actually a lot of clear sighted mortals
around these days and each have their own powers and abilities to keep
themselves safe. Like magic, pyrokinesis, sorcery and even magical
martial arts."
"Wait so you're are telling me that there are clear sighted mortal out there
who can do magic?" Luke asked with a looks of surprise.
"Yup. Anyone can do magic, if taught properly. Anyway as I was saying,
these groups of people live day to day in a world crafted by themselves for
themselves. It is known by many names, the Pit, the Hellhole, but most,
like me, call it the Abyss. Every city has a place where these members of
the Abyss meat up, and Biggy is a member of Abyss. Most of the others in
Abyss is…. well not the best kind of people."
"What do you mean?" Percy asked with narrowed eyes.
"Most are hitmen for hire using their skills to make a quick buck, there
are….less honorable."
"So what you are tell me is that there is an entire society that is powerful
and for hire?" Luke asked with a slight tone of enthusiasm, which Percy
found radically strange.
"Yeah, but you are going to need a lot of money."
"So," Percy cut in trying to change the tone of this conversation, "right now
we are going into a new world hidden just a few centimeters from us that is
filled with monsters and people who can do incredible things?"
"Yup."
"Great, it's like camp Half-Blood all over again," Percy exclaimed throwing
his hands up.
The limo pulled up to a coffee shop named 'The Rabbit,' and Percy and the
rest got out. "Come back for us in half an hour," Edward called back to his
driver who nodded and left them there.
"So...this is it?" Luke asked.
"Yup."
"The entrance to the society that contains magicians"
"But it looks like a regular coffee place to me," Grover said narrowing his
eyes, "are they using the mist to block our sight?"
"Nope," Edward replied and then walked in as the three questers followed
him inside. The Rabbit looked like any other coffee shop with a barista girl
and everything, on a side note, damn barista girls are hot!
Percy looked around and was shocked to see the kind of people in here.
Everyone here had a level above 20 and an average of 25. Everyone here
was trained and dangerous, "they are not hiding using the mist," Percy
whispered out, "they are hiding in plain sight."
Edward grinned, "you can sense the power flowing out of them?"
Percy nodded, "kind of….I think I can."
"Well either way you are right. The Mist is something that can be broken, it
can be seen through. But since most of the people in Abyss are clear
sighted anyway there really is no point. Also like Percy said, they are
hiding in plain sight."
The group then walked to the back of the place and there sitting alone in
the back both was a chubby man with a bald spot as big as a plate. He
wore a black track suit along with a golden chain and watch. He looked up
and smiled, "well well well, if it isn't the son of Boston. I saw that article
about you in The Times earlier, really hard hitting stuff."
Edward smiled, "hello Biggy. How've you been?" Edward sat down
opposite to him while motioning for the others to join him.
"Oh you know, same old same old. Had a coven of witches come in the
other day with the head of a werewolf, wanted a price for it. Needless to
say the misses was not pleased with all the werewolf blood leaking on the
wooden floors."
Edward laughed, "well that's quite a story Biggy. You'll have to tell it to me
later, but for now I came for a job."
Biggy nodded as he sipped his cup of coffee, "yeah I can see that. A son of
Hermes, as Satyr and….what's this, a son of Poseidon? Well well well, you
certainly have an interesting case for me this time Edward."
Edward smiled while the others looked shell shocked , how the hell did this
guy even know about them?! Percy then used Observe on him;

The Informant of Boston, also known as Biggy, this man tells people
what they want provided they have enough to pay for that
information. He used to be part of the Italian mafia before he quite it
for the Abyss. He loves his wife but hates her family.
What the hell?! This guy was a genius but nothing too impressive. Did he
have some kind of power that helped him figure all that out?
"Right as always Biggy," Edward replied with a grin. He then turned to
Percy, "Biggy here has the power to learn information quickly. He can also
sense people's powers, kind of like you Percy."
Biggy looked up at this, "kid's got the powers of an informant? Well well
well this just got interesting, guess you're not just a useless Greeky after
all."
"Greeky?" Percy asked confused.
"Biggy isn't really a fan of the Greek gods," Edward explained.
Chapter 94:
"Which is why we get along so well," Biggy smiled at Edward, "alright then
Eddy I know you wouldn't come all the way down here for nothing, what do
you need?"
"Remember those chains I sold you Biggy?"
"Yeah, the chains that bound Hera herself, what about them?"
"Well I need them it's a matter of life and death."
"I would love to help you Edward I really would, but I can't. Those chains
are being used to help a lot of people right now I can't just give it to you."
"Like what?" Edward asked curiously.
"Right now they are being used to contain a monster from attacking a
colony of fairies living in the Paul Revere house."
"The Paul Revere house?" Luke asked with a questioning look.
"Fairies?" asked Grover.
Biggy nodded to them both, "yup. The Paul Revere house is marked as a
landmark in Boston and is used to hide fairies, and yes I do mean fairies
like Tinkerbell."
"So what are the chains being used to gaurd?"
"It's being used to gaurd a monster born out of hate and destruction.
During the 2000's there was a few magician that went crazy and
summoned a demon from hell and tried to make it their slave, things didn't
go so well and the thing escaped. It went after the fairies and the people
from the Abyss used those chains you sold to seal up the demon in the
Paul Revere house."
Edward sighed as he laid back, "so we can't have them huh?"
Biggy nodded, "sadly no. But….if you managed to defeat the demon I
wouldn't mind letting you guys keep the chains."
Edward perked up at this, "seriously? Just like that?"
Biggy nodded, "yup yup yup. If you managed to defeat the things I'll let you
keep the chains. Interested?"
Quest Alert!

YES/NO?
"Hell yeah!" Percy cried out as he carefully pressed the yes option. Free
stat point? Yes please!
Biggy looked at him and smiled, "what's your name kid?"
"My name is Percy Jackson."
Biggy nodded, "okay then Percy, don't get to excited about this. I doubt you
can actually kill this thing. It is big, nasty and deadly. It killed people far
more experienced than you because it had a bad day, what do you think it
will do to you?"
Percy gulped but his resolve remained strong, "I need those chains."
"Very well then," Biggy then pulled out his phone and sent Edward a text, "I
texted you the details on where to find the thing inside the house. But there
is one more thing you all should know, only one of you can go in there."
"What?! Why?" screamed out Luke in worry.
"Because that's how the seal was designed. The fairies would chose a
champion and send him/her in to try and kill the beast, but obviously that
never worked out," Biggy stated.
"Thanks Biggy," Edward nodded as Percy, Luke and Grover gathered got
up to leave, "I'm sure this is going to help them a lot."
"Hey don't mention it," Biggy said waving them away, "oh by the way,
Percy," the son of Poseidon turned back, "you might want to know, there is
a rumor going around about a giant army of monsters gathering in the
South East. Might be something but you never know."
Percy was shocked but quickly nodded, "thanks Biggy."
Biggy then waved them away, Percy ran out and waited for Edward's limo
to pull up. As the rode to the Paul Revere house then began discussing
who will go into face the monster.
"It's obvious," Percy replied, "I'm going in there."
"Percy you can't it's too dangerous," replied Grover, "you heared what that
guy said, the thing is a literal demon from hell!"
"I need those chains Grover."
"We can find another way Percy," Luke said.
"No really," Edward replied, "I have felt the power of those things. If you
want to get Percy's mom back from Hades without getting tricked then you
need those chains."
Percy nodded, "yeah. And besides I'm sure I'll be fine."
"Percy this is serious business," Luke said frowning, "you can actually get
killed. This won't be like the Minotaur or the robots in the forge. This thing
wants to kill you, and can do so."
Percy nodded, "I know Luke…. but I have to try."
The argument was dropped as Luke and Grover knew a losing battle when
they saw one. The limo pulled up to an old wooden building that looked like
time forgot to touch it. The building was painted black with its windows shut
and a locked door with the sign, 'Closed'.
Chapter 95:
"This place is a tourist attractions," Edward explained, "but since today is
Sunday they are closed."
"Wait today was Sunday and you were at work?" Luke asked.
Edward shrugged, "I'm a workaholic. And an alcoholic, but that's neither
here nor there."
He then sent the limo away and slowly walked to the house. The group
then looked around, the coast was clear. Luke and Edward then set out
picking the lock for the house.
"Here let me," Luke replied holding a lock pick in his hand.
"No I got it," Edward replied trying to pick the lock.
"I am faster."
"Well I am better at this."
"Bullshit."
"Well it's the truth," Edward the pulled causing his lock pick to snap, "shit!"
"Let me," Luke said as he went about unlocking the door. Suddenly the
door clicked and opened inward, "there see."
"I was just a little rusty," Edward said as he walked in.
"Sure."
Inside the house looked even more Victorian. There was a chair and table
in the front with places on them describing them, it seemed they belong to
Paul Revere along with the bed on the side of the room, who the fuck is
this guy anyway?
Edward pulled out his phone and took out the information Biggy sent him,
"according to this….it should be right around here," Edward said as he
walked to one corner of the room and pressed a wooden plank which then
glowed blue as the wall began to separate itself revealing a pathway.
There should be nothing there, heck the wall of the house should open up
to the outside, but there it is a secret passageway, must be some kind of
pocket dimension created by magic. Percy gathered his wits and walked in
followed by Luke, Edward and at last Grover.
The passage got darker and darker but never completely pitch black as
there was always a faint blue light coming out of the walls that illuminated
the path for them.
Eventually the passage lead to a gigantic room which looked like it should
be used to store freaking ships. The room was illuminated by a fake sun
that was floating on the top. Along the walls were stone like buildings
shaped like honey combs, inside which were balls of light.
"Are those..." Luke asked unsure of himself.
"Fairies!" Grover cried out as he ran to one of them. They were scared first
but eventually came out of their homes and began to circle Grover, some
pulling up his beanie messing with his hair and horns.
"I think they like him," Percy said with a smile.
"They should," Edward replied, "Grover is a Satyr. They both are creatures
of nature, the fairies are the same, just a little more...mischievous."
Percy nodded and then turned away from Grover to look ahead and there
on the far end of the room was a giant door which was 8 feet tall with
pictures of skeletons being broken apart at the spine by something cloaked
in shadows with bright blue eyes. The door was sealed shut by bright
bronze chains that was pinned on it with silver bolts.
'That must be the chains,' Percy thought as he approached the doors.
"You ready for this?" Edward asked Percy in a whisper.
"No," he replied.
"Good. Being overconfident gets you killed. Stay on your feet, stay alert,
and you might just survive this."
Percy nodded and turned to Grover who was now talking to one
particularly bright ball of light, "what are they saying Grover?"
His best friend turned to him grim, "I-I….they are saying if you wish to go in
there and face this thing they won't stop you. But they are also saying that
if you do go….we should ready your casket."
Percy smiled, "who said faries didn't have a sense of humor."
Just then a ball of light squeaked up and Grover translated, "she's saying
that they aren't being funny. They lost a lot of people, good people to this
thing. Percy…. I don't think this is a good idea."
Percy sighed, "I need to do this." He then threw his bag down and pulled
out Riptide.
"Here Percy," Luke said as he handed Percy the time box of Ambrosia and
the flask of Nectar, "in case you might need it."
Percy nodded to Luke and put the things in his pocket. He then walked up
to the door as the fairies all surrounded him. They then went to the chains
and began chanting in a strange language making the chains glow with red
Greek words. Before Percy could read them the words disappeared
causing the chains to disappear and the doors to open for him.
Percy looked back to Luke and nodded, the son of Hermes looked unsure
of this, he hated this plan. But he nodded back, he may not like it but he
would support it.
Percy then turned to the open door, all that was seen beyond was
darkness. Gripping Riptide hard Percy walked into the darkness as the
doors shut behind him killing off all source of light.
Ping!
You have entered the dungeon, 'Cave of the Beast.' You can only exit
after killing the monster inside.
Percy sighed dismissing the box, great just what I need another dungeon
effect pulling me down. Well atleast I'm not alone. Percy then pulled out the
gauntlet of Kefka and summoned all his servants. Zed equipped his
swords, Alectos her bow and quiver and Craig had his blade ready.
Percy then took out the shard of light that he got from the forge and threw
them all over the dungeon. The light revealed that Percy was now in a
cave. The cave was 50 feet tall with stalactites on the top and several
pillars lining the walls.
Suddenly two giant blue orbs appeared , similar to the ones the shadowy
figure on the door had. The light then revealed what was inside the cave.
There standing in front of Percy was a 15 foot tall beast in the shape of a
wolf. It was pitch black with blood red highlights running across. It mouth
was open as drool fell down in the buckets, it's teeth were long and sharp
with claws just as big. On it's back were the wings of an eagle with silvery
feathers that looked sharp as steel.
It opened it's mouth and roared, "ROAR!"

battles.
Kill to get - 30,000 Exp
Percy took out his shield and held it up ready for the oncoming fight. He
yelled out, "bring it on you stupid beast!"
Alright there we go another one done. Everything was done, sorry if
some seem a little laied back, but they did just go dungeon hunting
so...
Questions;
Percy is Orion: Ah... I don't know. Kind of cliche and an easy way out.
I just don't like it. But seriously who the hell wants to be with a girl
who likes you because you remind her of her ex?
Smut?: Ah... maybe. But not right now. Percy is freaking 12. Maybe
like later on.
Rage against the Gabe: Okay I see what you're are saying, Percy has
Gamer's mind, this shouldn't get him angry. Right? Well think of this,
the Gamer's mind complies the data that Percy feed it and gives a
statement: You are angry. There is not anger there, but it still doesn't
change the fact that Percy wants to ripe Gabe a new one. It's like this,
the GM makes your emotions manageable, but you are still going to
feel all those things.
Chapter 96:
How the hell am I going to actually kill this thing? It is big and scary, but so
is all the monsters I face…..maybe I should just ask? Heck I never tried
that, maybe it just might work. Also it's info did say it gives true answer to
questions.
"So what is the best way I can kill you?" Percy asked the demon, "and
where are all your weak points?And how would you react if I force feed you
Ambrosia and Nectar?"
The demon looked at Percy with a look which basically said, 'really?'
Percy shrugged, "well I tried, get him guys!"
Percy jumped to side as Zed and Craig charged the big wolf. Alecto drew
up an arrow and fired at the thing's eyes. But before the arrow, Zed and
Craig managed to hit the thing, it opened it's mouth and roared. The shock
wave alone tossed all three back onto the floor. Percy grimaced, 'this is
going to be a lot harder than I expected.'
Percy then jumped forward just as it closed its jaws and with Riptide he cut
across the things right eye;
Ping!
Critical hit! 350% of 250 attack= 875 Attack!
Marchosias HP: 37,125/38,000
Percy then ducked down as Marchosias moved backwards in pain. Black
blood dripped along Riptide, it seemed demons from hell had black blood.
Not really that surprising. Just then;
Warning! Attack from front!
Percy jumped back just as Marchosias swiped at him with one of his
gigantic paws. Percy grimace "Alecto light him up!"
"Right boss!" the Fury called out as she fired arrow after arrow at the
monster, some stuck while others couldn't penetrate the fur.
Marchosias HP: 37,005/38,000
"Zed bash his skull in! Craig cover Zed until he gets a clear shot in!" Percy
called out as he put away Riptide and pulled out his climbing gloves. He
had a crazy idea in mind.
Zed roared out, "got it boss!" While Craig simply nodded. The Knight
charged Marchosias and swung at him skillfully with his giant black blade.
The demon jumped away from each strike and on the 5th doge it pounced
on Craig and crushed his helmet with its powerful jaws.
Marchosias then moved back and spit the helmet out revealing an empty
suit of armour, empty except for the mass of shadows living in it. Craig
moved again and swung at the demon, which kind of looked surprised
considering Craig was headless.
As the two began their dance of attacking and dodging Craig's helmet
slowly formed back out of the shadows replacing the one Marchosias
chewed up. Zed then jumped in, "eat this doggy!" He then swung
downwards and hit Marchosias right on the spine. A loud crack could be
heard;
Marchosias HP: 36,005/38,000
"Shit!" cried Zed as he jumped back from one of the giant wolf's paws,
"why can't we ever fight a weak guy boss? We either fight a giant zombie,
a damned Knight or a giant robotic snake. Like what the hell man?!"
"Kind of busy right now Zed," Percy called back. The son of Poseidon was
now climbing the wall of the cave using his climbing gloves. He reached
the top and pulled out the Razor whip he just got.
Razor Whip,
A whip that is extremely sharp when mana is called thru it. This whip
is extremely dangerous do not, I repeat do not use it for BDSM. Got
it?
Attack 25
Percy flicked his hand and swung it around a stalactite hanging off the wall,
"get him here!"
Zed looked up and nodded, "right!"
But Marchosias was smarter than it looked, after all it did have very high Int
and Wis points. It knew Zed was trying to push it towards Percy and was
constantly moving away, dancing between Craig and Zed's sword strikes, 'I
really need to teach those two how to work together,' thought Percy.
Eventually Percy got tired of waiting, he checked to see whether the whip
was wound tight around the stalactite and then kicked off the wall. He
swung himself towards and landed right on Marchosias, stunning the
monster in surprise. He then channeled mana into the whip causing it to
sharpen and cut the rock formation.
Marchosias buckled and threw Percy off, which is just what Percy wanted.
He swung his whip forward at the wolf, causing the stalactite to soar
through the air like a giant bullet.
The wolf demon saw this and quickly opened it's mouth, "DARK WAVE!"
Percy's eyes widened in surprise as a blast of darkness flew out of
Marchosias. It destroyed the rock being hurled at it and in the process
ripped the whip to shreds. Percy then watched as it came to him, but
Alecto jumped in the way pulling him away from the path of destruction.
"Shit!" Percy exclaimed the moment he got on his feet. The attack
Marchosias used hit the stone wall causing a giant crater. Percy then
looked down and saw the Razor whip from before now destroyed, well that
didn't last long did it?
Percy threw the whip away and looked at the beast. It was panting and
looked tired though it clearly had enough energy to spare, but the
important thing was the fact it actually spoke, it wasn't a normal monster
that's for sure.
Zed jumped into battle once again and this time managed to hit the beast;
Marchosias HP: 35,005/38,000
Percy then pulled out several water bottles and emptied them all out. He
quickly created a small puddle near the wall, all he needed now was to
trick the wolf here."Craig get him over here!"
The Knight nodded and quickly the two battled on. The knight pushed the
wolf back along with Zed, but again Marchosias was smart, it understood
human language. It refused to go anywhere near the puddle but it was
close enough for Percy.
Chapter 97:
Percy took out Riptide and held it ready, "Water's kill." The water from the
puddle lept up and caught Marchosias' feet before it could escape. The
water held it in place as Percy coated his blade with water which then
began to spin like a buzz saw.
Craig however was not letting this chance slip as well. He attacked the
beast furiously with skill and precision. Eventually Zed got in on this as
well;
Marchosias HP: 34,300/38,000
It's HP was getting low and dropping. The wolf got angry and then
exploded outwards sending a shock wave of darkness out knocking Zed
and Craig away, but Percy was far away not to be affected by it. He then
saw his chance and as soon as the shock wave ended he charged the wolf
with his blade.
Percy drew back his sword and jumped bringing Riptide down on it's neck,
Attack: 250 + 60% bonus for sword mastery = 400 Attack,
400 Attack x 11 (water skill level) = 4,400 Attack!
Critical strike! 350% of 4400 Attack = 15,400 Attack!
Percy's strike didn't behead the thing but it did manage to do a lot of
damage.
Marchosias HP: 18,900/38,000
Maybe just another strike and-
"ENOUGH!" the monster roared as it exploded into smoke only to reform
next to Alecto across the room. He then bit her head off causing the
servant to turn into smoke and flow back into the gauntlet.
Marchosias then sucked in all the water Percy had spilt during his Water's
kill attack leaving the cave dry. It then turned to Zed, "ah boss it's looking at
me," Zed replied as Craig and Percy walked forward with their swords at
the ready.
Marchosias then turned into a dark cloud again and flew ahead right at
them. Percy jumped backwards as Marchosias dashed into the wall of the
cave, 'okay maybe he doesn't have complete control over that power of his
yet, meaning I can use this to my advantage.'
"Hey you know what I heard about you?" Percy asked with a smirk, "I
heard your mama is so fat she went out in high heels and came back in
flipflops."
Marchosias looked at Percy with a look of confusion, "are….are you
telling you mama jokes?"
"Yup. Your mama is so fat she sued xbox 360 for guessing her weight."
"Ah actually the xbox 360 is a product not a company, hence it cannot
be sued. Microsoft on the other hand can," replied Marchosias with a
know it all tone in his voice.
Okay so I am right now fighting a super strong demon that is smart, can
turn into shadows and maybe most dangerous of all be immune to my
insults. He is like a child of Athena…..so what would piss Annabeth off?
Percy then took a deep breath and called out,"NEEEERD!"
Marchosias looked pissed at that and growled, "I'LL RIP YOU APART!"
Ping!
Taunt success!
Ping!
Perk: Alecto's anger has been activated!
· Anger of Alecto- whenever the user succeeds in taunting an enemy
they are infected with the Anger of Alecto which gives them double
their strength but also makes them clumsy and highly ignorant of
their surrounds.
'Well guess that worked,' Percy thought out as Marchosias charged at
them again in his shadow form only to crash into the walls of the cave over
and over again.
Marchosias HP: 17,384/38,000
Percy smirked and pulled out a blade he got from Hephaestus's forge. He
charged Marchosias as it was recovering from it's previous blind charge
and began his attack, "Stardust Wave!"
The strikes went all over the monster's body as more and more damage
was landed on it's thick fur. But just as Percy finished his 23rd cut
Marchosias turned into a cloud and ran away, but the damage was done.
Stardust Wave- 23 strikes x 38 = 874 + 35 Dex = 909%
909% of 250 Attack = 2272 Attack!
60% bonus from sword mastery = 3635 Attack
Marchosias HP: 13,749/38,000
The beast then turned solid again and growled at Percy and his servants,
"you are strong mortal I will give you that much."
"Actually I'm a demigod."
"You are still mortal."
"Details."
Marchosias then barked which sounded very much like a laugh, "you are
good brat. Very good. But this is wear you die! TOXIC WAVE!"
Suddenly Marchosias body exploded out dark green gas that quickly
spread out.
'5 drachma say's that's poison,' Percy thought as he held a hand to his
nose thinking of a way to get rid of the smoke. Maybe steam control
applied here as well? Heck there was moisture in the air why can't he just
use that?
Chapter 98:
Percy then extended his hand out, "steam control!" Percy's mana slowly
mixed with the gas Marchosias was letting out and slowly he gained
control over it. He then condensed it into liquid form and used it for his next
attack,"Poison Spikes!"
The poison reacted to Percy's common and pierced Marchosias several
times, six to be exact;
Marchosias HP: 13,269/38,000
Sure that attack alone didn't do much but that was not the point, Percy just
wanted Marchosias in one place. Percy then jumped at the now stationary
monster and began his Stardust Wave once again.
Percy struck again and again until Marchosias sent Percy back with a
shockwave of darkness causing him to land on his ass;
Stardust Wave- 14 strike x 38= 532 + 35 Dex = 567 %
567% of 250 =1417 Attack!
60% bonus from sword mastery = 2267 Attack!
Marchosias HP: 11,002/38,000
Percy then turned to use Water's Kill on the thing for one last attack, but
instead of a impaled wolf he saw nothing but smoke. "Zed, Craig get ready
he's going to try something desperate!"
And the demon was. Marchosias collected itself and charged at Percy, this
time however when Percy tried to dodge, the solid wolf turned into smoke
and flew inside him through his mouth.
"ACK!" Percy coughed out as all the smoke went inside him, 'was he trying
to kill me from the inside? How do I get him out of me!' Percy held his neck
as wisps of smoke came out until suddenly everything went dark and
Percy fell to the ground unconscious.
Percy opened his eyes and found himself in a strange place. This wasn't
the cave, there was no roof here as the only thing above was darkness. He
felt smoke in the air with no moisture, the only sound there was the sound
of his own breath.
Percy himself was standing on a narrow walkway which was crumbling at
the sides and extended forever on both sides with no end in sight. Below
him was fire, a sea of fire that extended forever. All that existed was him,
this walkway that lead to nowhere and the figure in front of him was
covered in black smoke.
Percy's mind quickly figured what was going on, Marchosias was trying to
control him. "I won't let you succeed wolf breath. I won't let you control
me."
The shadowy figure then changed. It formed into a beautiful young woman
with black curly hair and sky blue eyes. He skin was dark, almost like burst
hazelnuts and she stood naked, displaying herself proudly. Her chest was
huge and her hips were wide and not one fault could be seen on her
perfect skin.
"I never expected it to be easy child," her voice was like honey, "but I will-
why are you staring?"
Percy blinked and then shut his open mouth, "ah...no reason."
"You...you have never seen a naked woman before have you?" she asked
with a predatory smile as she walked over to him, swaying her hips
seductively.
"Well I ah I just never-"
"Shh," she was now right next to him as she pressed a finger to his lips.
She then grabbed him by the shoulders and pulled him into a tight hug.
Percy being shorter ended up buried into her large chest, "it's okay, you
can look all you want," she then leaned down and whispered, "you can
even touch if you want to."
Percy looked up from the giant pair of breasts that he was showed into to
protest but suddenly the woman leaned down and caught his lips is a kiss.
Percy tried to protest but her grip was to strong and her lips to soft.
Slowy she pried open his mouth with her tongue and then began to explore
every inch of him with it. Percy felt himself being sent to nirvana as a
feeling of bliss settled in. everything just felt so good to him. He didn't
notice the darkness take over his body.
Outside in the real world Zed and Craig had watched Percy for minutes,
hoping nothing happened to their boss when suddenly the body got up.
Percy's skin was now black with his eyes fully white, he was gone now,
Marchosias had taken over.
"Ah boss?" Zed asked cautiously and he tried to approach Percy. Suddenly
the possessed body moved and with Riptide, slashed at Zed causing the
red servant to jump back on instinct, "what the hell man!"
"Possessed," Craig replied in one word and began to battle Percy head on.
The possessed demigod was powerful before, but now with the demon
possessing him he was unstoppable. He attacked Craig with the
vengeance of Hell and was slowly pushing the Knight back.
Just then Zed stepped in and swung at Percy forcing the boy to disengage
Craig and jump away to avoid getting cut in half. "Any ideas?" Zed asked
Craig as the two readied themselves for another attack from Percy.
"No," Craig simply replied.
"You know what you are great person to talk to, always so full of sagely
advice," Zed replied sarcastically as the battle began once more.
Back in that sea of fire Percy found himself losing more and more of
himself in the kiss. This woman was so warm and comforting. Being with
her was better than anything Percy had ever felt. Her breasts were like
pillows being pressed on Percy.
He soon found his hands wandering all over her impressive body as it
touched and pressed everything it could. Eventually Percy felt his hands
reach and grab her firm ass as he pushed himself deeper into the kiss.
This was it, this was heaven. He didn't need anything else. everything
could go and burn for all he cared. This was-
Ping! Ping!
Percy's eyes shot open. He felt the spell over him break. The sound of his
life, the sound her had come to know as well as his own name, it snapped
him out of it. Percy quickly pulled away from the woman, Gamer's mind
helped him stay in control and not kiss her again. Percy looked up and
growled, "get out of my body!"
Chapter 99:
Outside the possessed body of Percy thrusted Riptide into Zed causing the
servant to evaporate into smoke and flow into the gauntlet of Kefka. Craig
was now alone as he stood on the other side of the cave with a broken
chest plate.
The possessed Percy the turned to Craig and walked to the Knight. The
first step he took though caused the body to stop suddenly and fall to the
ground like a puppet without strings. Out of Percy now came a cloud of
black gas that flew away. Seeing this Craig quickly approached Percy and
helped him back to his feet.
Percy's head was spinning, his muscles were paining and his bones felt
like dust. Marchosias had pushed him to his limit, he had gone beyond
what was usually possible for him Craig helped him up, "thanks."
Seeing Zed was not here Percy guessed Marchosias used his body to
destroy the servant. He then looked up and saw the notification that saved
his life;
A new skill has been created!
Kissing, Lv- 2 (90%)
It is what it is. The higher level you are the better kisser you are. And
remember practise makes perfect.
Your level is kissing leave the person unfazed.
Percy looked deadpanned at that, that was the most unusual skill he had
ever seen. But whatever it saved his life and he wasn't going to look a gift
horse in the mouth.
Percy closed the box and pulled up his HP and MP;
Percy Jackson
HP-322/700
MP-100/500
Marchosias must have rode him pretty hard for him mana and health to fall
so low...wait no she didn't ride him, she possessed him. There was no
riding of any form involved...sigh moving on.
Marchosias on the other hand;
Marchosias HP: 9,000/38,000
It took a lot out of the monster to try and posses him, and him reject it must
have hurt it somewhat. Percy needed to finish this now, before it does
something new.
The giant wolf was slowly getting ready for another round, so Percy
moved. He turned to Craig, "can you keep him busy?" he asked in a
whisper.
The Knight nodded and soon charged the wolf with and began to fight the
still exhausted wolf, he managed to get a few hits in but so did Marchosias.
Percy took out the Nectar and Ambrosia that Luke gave him and ate them
both quickly;
Percy Jackson
HP-700/700
MP-500/500
He had a plan, it was a crazy plan and it just might get him killed, but fuck
it it was all he had. Any attack he did via sword Marchosias could just block
with his, no wait her, shock wave of darkness. And any attack he did using
water, Marchosias would immediately know was bad news and would just
turn into smoke and fly away.
He needed her surprised, he needed her to not see this coming.
Percy then saw Craig being thrown back into the wall as Marchosias
growled in victory. This was it.
Percy opened his inventory and pulled out the shovel buster that he
equipped on his right hand;
Shovel Buster,
A knuckle buster made out of white metal. It's end is shaped like a
shovel to pierce enemies with and to dig up dirt, which ever thing you
want.
Attack- 50+(Level of hand to hand combat Str) %
Percy then jumped on Marchosias and shoved the white metal into her
neck;
Critical! 350% of 91 attack = 318 Attack!
Marchosias HP: 8,382/38,000
The wolf shook her head and threw Percy off. He landed to the side of the
beast and quickly got up only to have Marchosias shove him back down
and then try and bite his head off. This was what he wanted. Percy then
swung his left hand into her open mouth and called a skill he had just a few
hour practise with, Marble Skin;
· Marble Skin, Lv-MAX
A skill that uses Mana that hardens your skin into marble. The more
mana you use the denser it becomes.
Defence- (Amount of mana used) x Vit = Durability
Cost- depends on the user.
Percy poured 100 MP into the defensive move just as Marchosias closed
down her jaw biting into his now marble hard hand.
Defence- 3800,
Percy grinned as the wolf struggled to tear off Percy's arm, he could almost
see the confusion in her eyes. He stood up slowly, but the wolf didn't let go,
she was determined to rip his arm. As he got to his full height Marchosias
neck was now exposed and that is exactly what Percy wanted.
Ping!
Skill has leveled up!
· Physical Endurance, Lv-7 (82%)

Percy dismissed the bo and drew his free right arm back, channeling his
powers into it, "Earthquake Fist!"
Earthquake control, Lv-1 (30%)
You can cause an Earthquake thought any part of your body.
Attack- 500
Cost 100 MP

Percy then punched Marchosias right in the throat with the shovel buster in
hand. He heard the crack of bone as a huge amount of damage was done
to Marchosias;
Earthquake control, 500 Attack + 91 Attack from the Shovel Buster =
591 Attack!

hand and grabbed her head with his left putting her into an arm lock. He
then swung at her again, "Earthquake Fist!"
Earthquake control, 500 Attack + 91 Attack from the Shovel Buster =
591 Attack!
Critical hit! 400% of 591 Attack = 2364 Attack!
Ping!

Magnitude-1.2
Marchosias HP: 3,950/38,000
Percy hit Marchosias so hard it flew away bursting into a smoke cloud and
landed on the other side of the cave.
Percy was panting now, those last two attacks took a lot out of him. He
saw his shovel buster crumble in his hand, it couldn't handle the pressure.
Great another item destroyed when fighting this thing.
Percy looked at Marchosias, she was exhausted to. Her health was down
to the bare minimum, but Percy knew she wouldn't give in so easily.
Marchosias then transformed into her naked female form again, walking
towards Percy with a sway in her hips. "Come now boy, you know you
don't want to kill me," she said with a lustful smile, "spare my life and I shall
give you answers you so wish, for that is my power."
"I don't have questions that need answering thank you very much," Percy
said in a dismissive tone, he needed to stay alert and not get distracted by
those huge beautiful things in front of him. He looked everywhere but at
her, seriously those things are so distracting!
"Really?" the woman asked with a smirk, "not even who the Lightning Thief
is?"
Percy's eyes widened at that. If he...if he spared her he would know who to
blame, who did this to him. But she could lie, no...no he didn't think she
would do that. She would gain nothing from that, and if he found out she
did lie to him she knew he would come back to kill her. So why? Why
would she lie? No….she must be telling the truth.
He could kill her and with the gauntlet of Kefka make her his slave and
then make her tell him, yes, yes that might work. But he would need to be
strong, he would need to get her close, and like last time the moment her
defence is down he could kill her. Percy resolved himself, he needed to
know who the Lightning thief was. He looked up at Marchosias,"deal."
The demon smirked as she walked over and grabbed Percy by the collar
and pressed her lips to his. The moment their lips touched Percy instantly
knew this was a mistake. He lost all sense of control the kiss was far more
powerful than last time, Percy didn't stand a chance.
She pushed her tongue passed his lips and then began to explore him
once again. She then opened his mouth wide and started to suck his
tongue as she slowly grinded up against him.
Percy couldn't do anything, he was losing himself again. He needed to
break free;
Ping!

Percy Jackson HP: 600/700
Percy's eyes shot up at the sound, now she was trying to take over him
again, he needed to escape. But her grip on him was to strong, every time
he tried to move away she pulled him closer as her kisses became
stronger and hotter.
Ping!

Percy Jackson HP: 500/700
She then moved to his neck sucking on the skin until they turned blue. She
then pushed Percy into the wall of the cave and pulled back, "you shouldn't
have trusted me, stupid boy."
"We had a deal," Percy growled out.
The demon smiled as she lowered her hands to his pants, "and now I'm
changing the deal. You will remain here with me forever. You are already
mine."
Percy then looked behind her and smirked, "yeah, but he isn't."
Marchosias' eyes widened as she turned around just in time to have
Craig's giant blade cut her in half. "AH!" she roared as she transformed
into smoke and flew back, breaking Percy out of her control.
Percy fell to his knees, "thanks Craig."
The Knight nodded as he turned to face Marchosias, who was now in her
wolf form again with her health severely depleted;
Marchosias HP: 1,250/38,000
Craig's attack had done a lot of damage to her. Percy reached into his
pants and got Riptide out. He uncapped the blade and got ready for the
demon's next attack. He let her trick him once, never again.
Craig ad Percy charged Marchosias, but the demon was faster. She
transformed into smoke once again and slammed into Craig sending him
back and then turned to Percy. She took on the form of a wolf again and
then pounced at Percy.
Chapter 100:
The son of Poseidon held up his left hand in defence and for his trouble
Marchosias bite into his left bicep. Luckily he still had his Marble Skin
active so he didn't get hurt but Marchosias didn't care, she pressed on and
soon her fangs broke Percy's marble skin and drew blood.
"AH!" Percy cried out as he tried to shake her off of him. Instead
Marchosias began to chant something in a language Percy had never
heard as slowly he felt something being injected into his bloodstream.
Percy then swung his right hand, "Earthquake Fist!" The attack hit
Marchosias in the face finally releasing her from Percy's hands;
Marchosias HP: 750/38,000
Percy then got up up holding his arm in pain. On his left bicep were three
teeth marks where her fangs broke his skin, his blood was leaking out and
he could feel whatever she put inside of him moving across his body.
"What did you do to me?!" Percy roared out as he's struggled to his feet.
The wolf started to chuckle, "I cursed you boy. I have cursed you to a
life of misery and resentment. From now till the end of time you will
always have to be careful, always remain in control, because if you
falter for even one second you will lose control and kill everyone and
everything around you."
Ping!
Curse of of 'Le Bete' acquired as a permanent perk!
Le Bete- gives +50 to all stats but will cause a complete loss of
control every time Percy gets angry. For every person Percy kills
while in this berserk rage he will gain+2 stat points. WARNING: The
only way to stop this is to either kill Percy, shock Percy awake with
something surprising or have no more enemies left to kill.
Percy looked at the box in horror, this was real...this was actually
happening. He then turned to Marchosias, "you bitch."
The wolf laughed, "why thank you boy. Now," it lowered itself ready to
pounce, "let's finish this."
Percy got up and pulled out a spare bronze blade from his inventory. He
then looked at Marchosias as he felt his pure hatred for the demon rise up.
The two stared at each other for a long time before the dashed forward at
nearly the exact same time, "Stardust Wave!"
Percy and the wolf attacked each other relentlessly. She tore into his legs
while he cut her ears off. Percy attacked her 9 times and in the end
Marchosias fell down after getting her health cut down to 0.
Stardust wave- 9 strike x 38 Vit = 342 + 35 Dex= 377%
377% of 250 Attack = 942 Attack!
Marchosias HP: 0/38,000
Percy collapsed into Marchosias decomposing body as a hollow voice rung
out, "you may have killed me boy. But I still win."
Percy looked at the golden dust she transformed into and sighed, she was
right, this was his lose. Percy kneeled there for minutes on end. He was
devastated but his Gamer's mind kicked in. He could ether cry about it or
accept it and move on. And since there was nothing he could do about it,
he decided to do the latter. And maybe he was worrying about nothing,
after all he did have Gamer's mind, it would keep him in check.

Wolfskin jacket
And there in the golden dust appeared a black and red jacket. Percy
picked it up and saw that the jacket was his size and on the back was the
trident of Poseidon;
Wolfskin jacket,
A leather jacket made out of Marchosias' skin. It is immune to most
weapons and it is immune to magic to a certain degree. It's durability
can be compared to that of the skin of the Nemean lion and is know
to be water resistant.
Durability- 100/100
Percy put on the jacket, and unsurprisingly it fits like a glove. He looked
down and as the golden dust faded away more loot was found;
3000$
Skill book: Smoke form
Percy put the money away and picked up the book;
Ping!
You have acquired the skill book, Smoke form!

Percy pressed yes and the book dissolved feeding all the information into
Percy's head;
Ping!

Percy nodded, this was a useful skill to have, it did have it's weakness but
then again so did every skill. Percy then turned to Craig and dismissed him
with a wave of his hand. He then channeled mana into the gauntlet and
saw the well of souls, and there standing before him in all her naked glory
was the woman who cursed him.
Percy pulled her soul out and out of the gauntlet of Kefka arose smoke. It
then transformed into Marchosias as the naked demon went to her knees
bowing before Percy, "my master."
Percy spoke, "get up Marchosias," and she did, "now tell me. Who is the
Lightning thief?"
Marchosias smiled, "in order for me to answer your question master I need
a sacrifice in return."
"What kind of sacrifice?"
"A human soul willingly given."
"Why?"
"My powers is that of a demon, even if I wanted to tell you, I can't. By the
laws of hell, the christian one I mean, a demon can't give anything away
without gaining something back. And in this case I need a soul to tell you
the answers you seek."
"You never mentioned that before," Percy replied crossing his arms.
"I didn't want to mention it before."
"So what was your plan? Kiss me, take my soul and then answer my
question when I am dead?" Percy asked.
"Pretty much."
Percy sighed, "what can you tell me Marchosias."
The demon smiled a wicked grin, "I can tell you that you are a decent
kisser."
Percy blushed but quickly dismissed the demon away. Such a drag. Percy
then walked to the entrance of the cave and placed his hand on the door. A
click echoed through the cave and slowly the door opened.
Light came back and Percy winced at that but walked out of the cae and to
the colony of fairies he had saved.
On the floor next to the door where the chain of Hephaestus, they
deactivated the moment Percy defeated Marchosias and fell to the floor.
Luke and Grover ran up to him, "Percy!"
Percy smiled, "hey guys," he then hugged Luke and Grover, "miss me?"
"Percy what happened?!"Luke cried out in panic, "I thought we lost you!"
"Relax man it's all good."
"What was inside there Percy?" Grover asked as he looked at the cave, "it
feels like...it feels like death."
"A demon from hell, the christian one, not our version," Percy replied, "but
it's okay I took care of it."
"You killed a demon from hell at the age of 12," Edward Neak said walking
up the three, " and you simply dismiss it as, 'oh yeah I took care of it'."
Luke grinned at his half brother, "yeah that's just how Percy is."
"Is that where you got this jacket from?" Edward asked.
Percy quickly thought up and excuse, "yup, spoils of war."
Grover then spoke up, "ah...guys," he then pointed to the faerie who were
all cheering in their strange language, "they are saying thanks," he
translated, "thanks for killing the demon."
Percy smiled as one of the bigger fairies approached him and floated in
front of his nose, "you're welcome."
The fairy's voices then became louder and louder, Luke turned to
Grover,"what are they saying now?"
"They are saying, 'long live Percy Jackson the killer of Marchosias and
defender of the fairies'"
Edward smiled at that, "all hail Perseus Jackson, son of Poseidon, killer of
Marchosias and friend to faiers."
They all mocked bowed to him "hey knock it off!" Percy yelled as they all
laughed at this.
"Ah Percy," Grover asked, "why are you covered in hickeys?"
Percy blushed, "the ah...the ah- demon, kind of tried to seduce me."
Luke, Edward and Grover looked at him with blank looks and then all at
once then shouted, "WHAT?!"
Percy leaned back from the force of that question, "yeah. Marchosias is
actually a woman, and when I was kicking her ass she kind of tried to
seduce me."
"What did she do?" Grover asked.
"She-ah kissed me?"
"And gave you hickes?" Edward asked, to which Percy nodded.
"Holy shit! You made out with a demon!" Luke cried out, "all hail Percy
Jackson, son of Poseidon the boy, no, the man who made out with a
demon!"
This time the three bowed lower than before, "stop it you assholes!" Percy
cried out but they didn't stop.
"Teach us master!" Luke cried out.
"We are not worthy!" Edward claimed.
"Hey Percy quick question did she have, a-ah healthy body?" Grover
asked.
Percy sighed, "yes Grover she had a very healthy body."
"Score!" Luke cried out.
"Okay that's it it's time to celebrate!" Edward cried, "we are going to party
tonight!"
Percy smiled at the antics and quickly nodded, "okay, but just wait one
second" Percy then grabbed the chain, the very thing he came for;
Chain of Hephaestus,
A legendary item that can seal a god's power. It is unbreakable and
inescapable. It does not affect demigods.
Percy hide the chain from view of the others and quickly put it into his
inventory for safe keeping. He then pretended to put it in his bag and
quickly went to the group, "alright let's go."
The four then left the faerie colony and came to the living room of the Paul
Revere house. The then snuck back out and saw that it was night time
already. Edward called his limo, which arrived in two minutes and the four
got in.
"Where to sir?" asked the driver.
"Club Ruso," Edward replied with a grin. He turned to the three questers
and frowned, "actually let's go to Mr. Xenobia's first these guys aren't
dressed for the occasion."
"Right sir," the driver replied as he pulled up the window giving Percy and
his group their privacy.
"Where are we going?" Percy asked.
"I am going to introduce you three to the Boston nightlife."
"But we aren't allowed into clubs," Grover replied.
Edward smiled, "Mist."
And hour later,
Club Ruso was filled with loud music and louder people. The drinks flowed
freely and the drugs were in plenty. It was Sunday night, but these people
didn't care, they partied like there was no tomorrow.
The women were all beautiful, dressed in clothes that hugged them tightly
leaving little to the imagination and all the men were dressed in suits each
more handsome that the next. People were either drunk or getting there,
as they flirted, made out or danced with their respective partners. They
were all lost in the moment, until the doors of the club opened up revealing
four men, all dressed in suits.
At the head of this new group of Edward Neak, the most eligible bachelor
in town. Next to him wearing a red suit, white shirt and a red tie was a
blond haired man that looked 25, he smiled at the women there capturing
their hearts instantly.
Behind these two was a man in a lime-green suit, black shirt and a black
top hat. he smiled nervously and to the mortals he looked around 24. And
lastly behind all of them was a young man who looked just about 21
dressed in a black suit with a blue shirt and black tie. Most women
however noticed his eyes before anything else as the boy had the brightest
sea-green eyes they had ever seen.
Percy smiled at the attention they got. A little bit of Mist control on Luke's
part and all three managed to sneak in no problem. Edward then drew
everyone's attention by raising a hand up in the air and shouting, "make
some noise Boston!"
The club erupted in approval as Edward lead the group to the bar where
he got a round of shots, "to family," Neak said raising his shot glass up.
"To family," repeated the others as they downed the drink in one swing.
"Oh gods!" Percy cried out the moment he swallowed it, "what the hell is
that?!"
"Vodka my dear friend," Edward replied, "I take it this is your first drink?"
Percy nodded as he tried to suppress the burning in his throat, "gods this
hurts."
Luke laughed as he downed a second shot of vodka, "welcome to
adulthood Percy!"
"Okay then lads," Edward stood up looking around the club, "let's go and
have some fun."
Percy quickly went to the dancefloor. It was an orgy of people, except most
still had their clothes on. Percy didn't really know what to do there were
people all over the place just jumping and grinding, he didn't really know
what to do.
"Hello there," a voice called out. Percy turned and standing before him was
a cute girl with black hair and bright brown eyes. She wore a red dress that
hugged her body very tightly, with a long neckline that stopped in the
center of her chest showing a lot of cleavage.
"H-hello," 'fucking hell Percy stop stammering', Percy thought as he
focused, "can I help you?"
"I was wondering whether you wanted to dance," she asked as she walked
closer to him.
"Oh god yes," Percy replied as the girl took his arm and slowly took him
inside the mass of people dancing.
She then pulled him close as she lead them deeper and deeper into the
mass of dancers. Percy could only watch as she danced up and down
waving her arms all over as she slowly surfed the waves of the people. It
was like she knew where and how the people would move and could move
along with them. If there was a god that controlled party surfing she would
be his daughter.
Percy then moved with her, sometimes getting very close to her, but she
didn't seem to mind. Eventually she got them to the center of the dance
floor and Percy pushed up against her back. It's not like he wanted to, it
was just people kept pushing him towards her.
"You know," she spoke, her voice cutting through the music, "you can
actually touch me."
She then grabbed Percy's hands and placed them on her hips. Percy tried
to move them up to her stomach but she pulled them back down. "Have
you ever danced like this before?"
"No, never," Percy replied.
"Then let me teach you."
She then pressed her back into Percy as the two danced the night away.
Percy moved like she did, danced like she did and all through the night
held her tight and close.
Ping!

Percy pushed the screen away and focused on the girl he was with right
now.
Soon after an hour of dancing the two moved out of the dance floor and to
the bar where PErcy got the girl and him some drinks. His dancing has
improved a lot, mostly because the girl he was with gave a very good
reason to be.

"And I never got yours," the girl replied with a smile.
"Percy Jackson."

Percy knew that already from the name and title the girl heald,

brocolis, but then again who does?
She thinks Percy is a nice guy.
She is very happy and nervous right now.
Percy smiled at the happy part, but why was she nervous? Was he that
amazing?
"Well Attalia it is nice to meet you," Percy said with the best smile he could
put out.
"So what are you doing here Percy?" the girl asked sipping her drink.
"Oh nothing much, just talking to a beautiful girl."
"Haha, you are quite the charmer aren't you pretty boy."
"You think I'm pretty, beautiful?"
"Do you think I'm beautiful, handsome?"
"Well yes obviously I do," Percy said with a smile, "I mean have you seen
yourself in a mirror?"
Ping!
Skill has been created!
Flirting, Lv- 1 (20%)

Attalia smiled, "next time keep the banter going, it gives a girl a challenge."
Percy chuckled, "I'm sorry to disappoint."
"Oh believe me Percy you I am not disappointed," she then flipped her hair
back and looked at Percy the way a cat would a mouse, 'yeah I am so
lucky,'Percy thought.
But just then a cry went out, "get her!" Percy then saw two men appear out
of the crowd and grab Attalia and pull her away.
"Hey!" Percy cried out as he chased after the two men. One of them stayed
back and engaged Percy in combat while the other took a squirming Attalia
out of the club.
The man threw a right at Percy's face only for the boy to dodge it and
smash his fist into the grunts stomach causing the man to bend over in
pain. Percy then kicked the man's head and turned to the exit.
Suddenly three more men came in dressed same as the ones that
kidnapped Attalia. They looked at their fallen comrade and then at Percy.
"Ah...that guy did it?" Percy pointed at a man sitting next to him.
"Hey!" cried out the man.
Lie failed!
The three newcomers turned back to Percy who simply sighed, one of
these days that would work.
The three men pulled out knuckle buster and charged Percy. The people in
the club stopped moving and was now looking at the fight that was to
come. Percy dodged the first man and kicked him to the side only to have
the second man puch Percy right across the face.
"Fuck!"
Percy wiped the blood which was flowing out and kneed the man who
punched him. He grabbed him and then threw him into the last grunt.
Percy then grabbed the chair he was sitting on and smashed it over the
first man who was getting up.
"Fucking idiots," Percy muttered as he walked away to find Luke, Edward
and Grover.
He did find them, fairly quickly in fact. Grover was passed out on the bar
muttering his love for Juniper, Luke was busy making out with a hot blonde
wearing very little clothing and Edward…..well you don't want to know what
he was doing.
Percy sighed, he hated days like this.
Ping!
Quest Alert!
Find and save Attalia!
Reward,
3000 Exp
A kiss
Failure,
Attalia will forever be pissed at you.
YES/NO?
Percy pressed yes and immediately went to the third man that he took
down. He was getting up slowly but Percy pushed him down with a foot
and stood over him, "who the hell are you and where did you take Attalia?"
"I didn't see nothing!" the man said spitting at Percy.
Percy sighed wiping away the spit. He grabbed the man by his collar and
dragged him away from the public.
"Hey where are you taking me?" the man asked as he tried to get away
from Percy's grip, but it was to strong.
Percy took them to the men's toilet and threw him into the wall.
"Are you going to interrogate me? Fine! Try it! I'll tell you nothing!"
Percy simply smiled and cracked his knuckles, 'I am so going to enjoy this.'
A few seconds later,
"We are part of the Fanico family and our boss sent us to kidnap the girl so
that we can use her to blackmail her dad! We decided to hide her in 'Lola's
chocolate factory,' the warehouse downtown!"
"Anything else?" Percy asked with bloodlust.
"I love Britney Spears! I don't care what people say about her, I love her!"
Percy smiled, "thanks for that." He then pushed the grunt unconscious
and quickly walked out of the toilet.
Percy exited the club and walked into a nearby alley where he took out his
gauntlet of Kefka. He summoned Alecto who appeared and bowed,
"master. I am glad to see you survived the encounter with the demon."
Percy nodded, "yes. But not without a price. But right now I need you to fly
me to downtown Boston."
Alecto nodded and quickly carried off Percy into the air, "you sure Zeus
won't mind?" Percy asked as they flew along the Boston skyline.
"He cannot detect me and my sisters. We can hide ourselves from his
gaze, hence why we are of great use to Hades and don't get shot with
lightning bolts every time we fly."
Percy nodded as they quickly reached their destination. "Where now my
master."
"I'm not sure," Percy was searching the warehouse district and
immediately spotted the Lola's chocolate factory warehouse, "there!"
Alecto dived down and dropped Percy in front of the warehouse, "you wish
for me to stay?"
Percy shook his head, "no. It's not a life threatening situation. I just want to
have some fun is all." And with that he dismissed Alecto with a wave of his
hand and then put away the gauntlet.
Percy adjusted his tie and put on his best smile as he walked into the
warehouse. Inside Percy found several guards walking around with guns in
tow, huh this might be a challenge. Attalia must be in the manager's office
on the other side of the building.
Percy pulled out a sword he got as loot from killing a skeleton. It was a
normal iron sword, so it should affect human to. Percy then began walking
through the warehouse whistling a jolly tune while twirling his sword
around.
After the first turn he ran into a guard, "who are you?" the mafia man
asked.
"Nobody," Percy replied checkley.
"Well then Nobody better leave," he then pointed a sub-machine gun at
Percy, "or else."
Percy smiled and opened his inventory box in front of him and expanded it
to cover his entire body like a wall, "try me bitch."
The mafia man frowned and pulled the trigger. The submachine gun went
off in quick succession spraying bullets at Percy only for each bullet to
enter Percy's inventory and disappear. The man stopped shooting and
looked at Percy with wide eyes, "w-what are you?"
Percy smiled, "I'm the son of a god." Then then dashed forward and hit the
man with the flat side of his sword knocking him out. Percy then reached
for the unconscious humans gun and Observed it;
PP-2000
A machine gun made by the KBP Instrument design bureau. it is a
9mm round and is capable of using armour piercing rounds and can
store 44 rounds. It was previously used by Russia but is also
common in the hands of the russian mafia.
Bullets left- 23
Percy smiled and put the gun away, it could be useful later. He then
checked the man fully scoring another cartridge of bullets and a cigarette
lighter.
Percy then move and as he approached a turn another man appeared. The
new grunt didn't even have time to respond as Percy knocked the man out
with a punch and looted his body.
Percy then climbed the racks of the warehouse and began knocking out
every man patrolling the place. It was very fun, he kind of felt like Batman.
Jumping out of the shadows, beating mafia members up, kicking ass with
an awesome suit.
Percy eventually finished everyone there, the entire floor was clear of
mobsters. Percy then walked to the end of the warehouse and there snuck
to the window, unfortunately the shades were drawn.
'If only I had a way to spy on them from here...wait do?' Percy then pulled
up his skill list and there it was;
Shadow Spying, Lv- 1 (0%)
You can use send your mana to infected another person shadow. For
a certain time you will be able to hear whatever the person say and
hears.
Mana- 10 MP every minute it is in use
Limit- 12 hours.
With this he should technically be able to spy on the people inside. Percy
then activated his skill and sent out his mana through the wall and into the
other room. It then caught onto the shadow on somebody there and Percy
could hear what was being said.
"Listen well princess my boss is going to call very soon with your dad on
the line. I'm going to give you the phone and you will talk, but you tell your
dad one word about where you are and you're dead."
Okay that was obviously the bad guy.
"Kiss my ass," that a girl.
SLAP!
Percy winced at the sound of that and his Gamer's mind worked overtime
to bring down his anger, after all is he loses control the curse of Le Bete
would activate and that was the last thing he needed.
Percy then looked around at the bodies littering the floor of the warehouse
and an idea came to him. He put away his sword and grabbed a single
body from the pile of unconscious and dragged it to the manager's office.
"Okay you bitch I'm going to give you the phone now," the grunt said,
"remember what I told you."
Perfect timing. Percy picked up the body and then threw it through the
window. The noise and the sight caused the distraction Percy needed.
"What the fuck?!"
Percy then slammed into the door and rolled into the office. He looked up
and saw the grunt's startled look and Attalia look of surprise. Percy moved
before the grunt could and kicked his jaw knocking the man backwards
and into a wall.
Percy then walked up to the man and saw he was unconscious. He then
picked up the phone the man had and pressed his ear on it.
"Hello? Hello are you there Dick? Give the phone to the girl!"
Percy channeled some bloodlust into his voice, "all your men are gone. If
you don't want the same thing to happen to you then you won't ever
attack this girl again."
"W-who the hell are you?"
"Your worst nightmare," Percy then threw the phone down and crushed it
under his foot. He then turned to Attalia, "hello beautiful. What's a nice girl
like you doing in a place like this?"
Attalia looked stunned, "w-what are you doing here Percy?"
Percy then began to undo her bonds, "well we were having such a nice
conversation before, before these men took you away, very rude of them."
Ping!

Percy swiped it away and then helped Attalia to her feet, "Yo-you came for

Attalia looked at him with a look of wonder before grabbing his head and
kissing him silly.
Ping!
Kissing, Lv- 5 (25%)
It is what it is. The higher level you are the better kisser you are. And
remember practise makes perfect.
Your level is kissing leaves the person happy
The Next Day,
Percy stood in the platform next to the train that would take them to LA.
Last night was fun. It helped him calm down after the whole curse thing.
Also the kissing was fun, he gained two more levels before Attalia thought
she had given him a sufficient reward.
Kissing, Lv- 7 (35%)
It is what it is. The higher level you are the better kisser you are. And
remember practise makes perfect.
Your level is kissing gives the person a reason to remember you
He kind of felt bad because the way she saw it he was an older man, 21 or
so, but in reality he was 12, kind of made it a akward. But in the end that
didn't matter. Percy walked her home and then crashed in his motel room.
In the morning he found Grover and Edward also in the motel with a note
from Luke saying he would meet them at the station.
So Percy now stood with Grover and Edward, both of whom were wearing
shades and had ice packs pressed up against their heads.
"Pain," Grover moaned, "so much pain."
"Yeah well that's what a hangover is," Percy said with a smirk.
"Just-just-, keep quiet okay?"
"Sure G-man," Percy said as he then turned to Edward, "thanks again
Edward. We couldn't have gotten those chains without you."
The man took of the ice pack and grinned, "not a problem Percy. You
helped the people I considered family and for that you have my respect
and gratitude. If there is anything you need, don't be afraid to ask."
Percy smiled at that, "got it."
Just then the train whistled signaling the start of the journey. Percy and
Grover got on and waited nervously for Luke to show up.
"There," Grover said pointing at a figure running through the crowd of
people in the station.
By the time Luke was halfway to them the train had already started to
leave, "come on Luke!"
Just then three women jumped out of the crowd of people and ran after
Luke, "get back here Luke!"
Percy recognized one of them women, Luke was making out with her last
night.
"We are going to kill you!" cried another as the train started to pick up
speed. Luke realized he was not going to make it. He then jumped up and
shouted, "MAIA!" Suddenly wings sprouted out of his shoes and he flew
into Grover and Percy crashing into them.
The three then turned back and watched as the train left the station and
the three angry women behind. Luke got up and then started laughing,
"HAHA! Oh gods that was a close one!"
"What did you do?" Percy asked as he helped Grover up.
"I ah-may have made out with all three of them last night."
"And?"
"And I didn't realise they were sisters."
Percy and Grover laughed at Luke's antics as the three walked into the
train and quickly sat down in their cabin.
"Well atleast we are heading to LA now," Luke replied.
"Yup," Percy nodded in agreement. Today 13th of June. He had 8 days to
find his mom, the lightning bolt and the lightning thief. Easy as pie. Percy
then looked at Luke's shoes, "where did you get those Luke?"
"Oh these? I stole them from my dad," Luke said with a grin, "figured he
owed me some overdue birthday gifts."
Percy nodded and then Observed the shoes;
Hermes's flying shoes,
These shoes will sprout wings and fly at the command of the wearer.
They are charmed to be durable and will only break if you cut the
wings off. Activation spell, 'Maia.'
Warning! These shoes are charmed to send their wearer straight into
Tartarus the moment the person who wears it enters Hades.
Percy's eyes widened, what the hell is going on.
There we go, 10,000 fucking words. Doom! Mike drop! The crowd
goes wild!
Questions;
If INT and WIS are 60 each, will the gauntlet of Kefka make the
servants 120% more powerful?: Yes, yes it will. And I know, OP, but
seriously it's to much fun.
Changing race- yeah you can change race. But by special actions,
like lets say eating the golden apple, that makes you a god. Percy can
become a god, if he wants to. But seriously who would want to? And
all those rules, yuck!
Introducing Arty- In time dear reader, in time.
Alright there we all of the questions done. Did I miss some? P.M. me.
Also thanks to BRD man, your review left me in stitches and I just and
to rewrite the first few lines to add that in, seriously man, perfect!
