Chapter 731

Percy grumbled, "I wish they would stop staring."

"It's not every day a king graces us with his presence," Julia spoke in a

teasing tone.

"Please don't call me that," Percy tapped the crown, "stupid thing."

"You can't really blame them Percy," she argued, "they are in awe of

what you did for them. The way you fought back Saturn, I mean

Kronos, the way you fought him off, it was nothing short of a legend

from old."

"How do they even know about that?" Percy asked, "didn't we send

most of them back here before the battle?"

Julia looked surprised, "you mean you don't know?"

"Know what?"

"Morpheus did send them back, but they were still asleep. They

watched the entire war from a third person's perspective. They saw

everything Percy, they were there when you were crowned king, and

didn't object when Morpheus asked them."

Percy looked stunned, "r-really? But I thought...damn." Percy hung his

head, feeling the crown become even heavier knowing that the entire

city had essentially put it on his head.

Julia saw the weight on Percy and sighed, "I'm sorry Percy, I suppose

in a way this is my fault."

"What are you talking about?" asked the surprised demigod.

"Morpheus...before the battle he asked me why I, a praetor of Rome,

would willingly follow a greek demigod son of Neptune. I told him it was

because I had faith in you...that you would be the one to save us, to

guide us through the war. I told him how much I believe in you and...I

think that's what pushed him to do what he did."

Percy stopped, Julia mirroring his actions. He looked into her eyes and

she into his. After a moment he sighed, "well, now I really can't fuck up.

I mean if the you belive in me then I would be an asshole to through

that faith away."

Julia smiled as Percy took the lead, her following in his footsteps. She

looked at him and felt a pang in her heart. She didn't have to be a

daughter of Venus to know it was love, and she didn't have to use her

godly powers to know that it would never work out. Julie found herself

cursing the fact Thalia got to him first, it really wasn't fair.

They reached the steps of the Senate and found the marble steps to

be filling with the people of New Rome. Everyone was here, the

shopkeepers, the workers, the teachers. Everyone came and waited at

the steps, and when Percy approached they parted like the Red Sea,

opening his path towards the Senate door.

As Percy walked inside he could feel their eyes trailing him, their

hopes, their hate, sometimes it sucked having empathic powers.

Percy pushed open the doors of the senate and was immediately

bombarded by the sounds of the senators and high ranking

legionnaires arguing with each other. They looked ready to start

throwing around more than just insults when Percy stepped in.

Immediately they all stopped and turned to him. They watched as he

and Julia walked up to the stage and stand in the center before

everyone else. The stands were packed, the seats were all filled,

people even stood in the aisles, alongs the sides, in the back and even

more were peeping inside form the open doors.

"Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears," Percy began

smirking as they realised the play he was ripping off.

"Stop quoting Shakespeare!" someone yelled out causing everyone

else to laugh.

Percy chuckled as well, "right, right sorry. But you all looked so tense I

couldn't help it. Plus I have always wanted to say that," he smiled

causing them to chuckle once more.

After a moment he spoke once more, "but I didn't just pick those lines

by accident, nor was it because it was the only lines I knew about

Rome. It was because that play resembles the situation right now very

much. Where Caesar was rumored to be crowned emperor of Rome,

where Brutus, who loved Rome far more than he loved Caesar,

stabbed his friend with those who hated him."

The senators looked ready to protest, but one sharp glare from Percy

silenced them, forcing them to shut up and listen.

"Brutus came to the people of Rome and made his case, claiming how

he only did it because Caesar grew greedy and was planning on

robbing Rome of its democracy. And then Anthony came and proved

how everything Brutus just said was a pile of pegasus shit."

No one laughed that time, they were too focused on him to do anything

else.

"I'm not here to rule over you. I am not here to be a fucking emperor of

a king. I hate authority, even my fellow greek demigods consider it a

joke, I am their friend, not their king. I don't wish to rule, only to protect.

I'm not going to order you people to do anything, but I will tell you this.

Saturn is coming, and we can't stop his army as we are right now.

We have only one option, to run and live to fight another day."

"You want us to run like cowards?!" a senator asked enraged, "we are

Romans! We stand and fight!"

Percy narrowed his eyes at the man. He was fat and balding, he didn't

look like he had fought anything except a burrito for lunch.

"Julia," Percy turned to the Praetor, "did this senator stay and fight with

us in the Dreamworld? Did he stand and fight against the titan's army

like a proper Roman?"

The Praetor caught onto Percy's scheme quick. "No Percy, he did not."

Percy nodded before turning to the senator who was now gulping in

fear, "what right do you have to send all these people to death when

you yourself would sooner turn and run away? Why should they die for

your ego?"

The senator could feel the eyes of the people in the room turn to him,

he quietly sat down, refusing to meet Percy's narrowed eyes.

The newly crowned king turned to the people before him, "I don't want

to be your king. I don't want to be anything more than a demigod, hell

some days I don't even want to be a demigod. Some days I curse the

day my parents meet, and those days are the worst. And that's when I

look to my friends, to my girlfriend and I realise why it was all worth it.

I'm going to fight for you, I have no intention of robbing your freedom.

That is all."

Percy stepped aside, motioning Julia to step forward. The praetor

cleared her throat, "we don't have much time, as Percy says we cannot

stand up to him, not now, most are still exhausted from the battle in the

Dreamworld. We need to move, fast. I propose unto the Senate a

motion to relocate New Rome."

The people exploded into whispers, each talking to their loved ones on

what they should do. As they spoke Edgar got up and walked onto the

stage. He cleared his throat silencing them all.

Chapter 732

"We have no choice Romans, the monsters that are at our door will not

stop until we are all dead and sent up the Styx. We must move."

"It will take us at least four days to move!" a woman argue holding her

infant daughter in her hands, "we can't hold them off for that long!"

"No, we can't," Percy agreed turning everyone's attention to him, "but

we won't need to. First you will all need to break down New Rome and

I can carry it for you."

"How will you do that?" another civilian asked.

Percy sighed "I have a gift from the Fates, it allows me to store items

away in a pocket dimension for later use. The only requirement is that I

am able to carry the item to store them away."

"How much can you carry?" another one asked.

Percy grinned, "dude, you have no idea." More and more questions

came at Percy regarding his abilities, and he answered them all. It took

him half an hour, but eventually the Romans agreed. They quickly went

about breaking down their city, they focused on the big government

buildings first, like the college, the schools, the senate, before going to

the housing areas.

It was honestly amazing for Percy to see them work so efficiently like

that. It was almost magical the way everyone knew exactly what

needed to be done and did it as a single unit.

But Percy and Julia couldn't stay, they left the civilians to do their part

while returning to the fort to do theirs.

"That was quite a speech Percy," Julia told him as they entered the

Roman fort, which was also not being slowly dismantled. The

defensible locations were kept, like bunkers and armories, but

everything else, like the baths, the shops, the now empty stables were

all gone.

"Thanks, it was something I figured you guys would react to well."

"Did you make it up on the spot?"

Percy shrugged, "kind off, I thought about along the way really. Just

kind of came to me."

Julia whistled, "impressive."

Percy nodded, "thanks", 'but not if you have my kind of WIS score'.

They entered a giant red tent, which now served as their base. The

praetor office had already been torn down, it was after all just for show

and not really important. This took it's place.

Percy and Julia entered finding Rob, Thalia and Zoe waiting for them

looking over a topographical map of camp Jupiter.

"How did it go?" Thalia asked smiling at Percy.

"As well as it could have gone," he sighed as she walked over to him,

placing a gentle kiss on his lips.

Thalia ruffled his hair, "relax sea brain, you can't have everything easy

can you?"

Percy snorted, "whatever you say, Sparky."

"You are so going to pay for that," Thalia shot back. Zoe looked on in

utter surprise. What the little she had spoke with Thalia Grace she had

found a strong independent woman, but now she was no better than a

puppy wrapped around Jackson's fingers. Zoe narrowed her eyes, she

didn't like this, not one bit.

"How soon before the civilians are evacuated?" Rob asked.

"Soon," Julia nodded, "everything will be packed by the end of the day."

Percy sighed as he and Thalia stepped up to the table, "that's too long.

Can't they hurry it up?"

"No Percy, they can't," Julia sighed, "at the worst case scenario we will

have to leave certain things behind, like businesses and luxury homes,

taking with us only what we need."

Percy nodded, "agreed. And if you want I can come back here at a later

date and move everything, that is if Kronos leaves anything behind."

Rob growled, "look let's not go there. Let's focus on the here and now.

Do we know when he's attacking?"

Thalia shook her head, "no, Hermes squad just managed to escape

their notice and are making their way here, but before they left it just

looked like the Titans aren't doing much."

"What do we know about the army we face?" Zoe asked.

Percy took out the list he got from Lee and gave it to her, "here."

She read it over and cursed, [fucking Hades we are screwed.]

Percy chuckled, "couldn't agree more."

"We can't give up faith," Julia argued, "we don't need to fight them, just

hold them back long enough."

"And how exactly do you expect us to retreat?" Rob asked, "we can't

get away fast enough Julia."

"I think we can help with that," Thalia spoke up, "I asked the Demetre

kids and Castor to make more ropes for use. If Percy can tie it from

one end of the labyrinth to the other we could use the Labyrinth as a

way to retreat."

"That's a dangerous plan," Rob warned, "I have heard stories about

that place. We can't afford to lose men inside."

"If we don't do this then everyone dies Rob," Julia warned, "we have no

choice." the son of Mars argued some more, but eventually gave in to

the smarter Praetor.

"We need a plan of defence," Zoe spoke, "there is a lot of ways the

Titans could vanquish us."

"Agreed," Percy nodded as they looked over the map, "I had a few

suggestions."

It was decided that the main focus of worry for them would be the

giants and Gregoras the Titan's possessed. They would be the most

dangerous opponents and would probably be used for as a tank to

break through their defences.

Luckily the Romans' cannons and catapults could take care of them.

Trenches would also have to be dug up, and traps, pitfalls, arrow

volleys, the works. Zoe volunteered the hunters for the trap designing,

after all those girls did know a thing or two about them.

Just as they laid down the final plans for defence a legionnaire came

charging in. "Ma'am! Sir! You need to come quick!"

The entire tent went tense. "What is it Greg?" Rob asked grabbing his

blade's handle, "are they here already?"

"No sir," Greg said smiling, "it's the civilians!"

The Praetors grew worried as they quickly ran out with Percy, Thalia

and Zoe following suit. They stopped outside the gates of the fort

where standing in neatly arranged rows were the adults of New Rome

wearing the armour and weapons they were bestowed upon in the

Dreamworld by Ares and Aphrodite.

Julia looked confused, "what is this?"

"We couldn't just let you have all the glory now could we?" one

legionnaire said as he took off his helmet revealing Saito underneath.

The scientist looked aged and tired, but he also looked ready for battle.

He had strange white tools strapped to his belt, and something told

Percy they weren't computers.

Chapter 733

"Saito? What's going on here?" Rob asked, "what are you all doing

here?"

"Well a bunch of us got together and realised we all still had a part to

play in the battle," Saito smirked, "we wish to rejoin the roman army sir.

If you'll have us."

Julia and Rob were stunned, amazed and stunned. Fighting in the

Dreamworld was one thing, it was a matter of survival. But rejoining the

army and risking your own life? Well that was another thing entirely.

Julia smiled, breaking out of her stunned surprise, "then I would gladly

have you all. Welcome back, sixth cohort."

"Aye!" the cheered. The title was temporary and didn't mean much. But

it was feeling of pride that it aroused which was important.

Julia and Rob set out to quickly assign the newly rejoined legionnaires.

Most were simply sent back to New Rome to help with the dismantling

while the others were assigned to sentry duty, especially those who

were legacies of Apollo.

Thalia, Percy and Zoe stayed back for most of this, simply watching

them all at work. Eventually though they grew bored.

"I shall return to the Hunters," Zoe informed the couple before nodding

to them and leaving.

Percy narrowed his eyes, he felt like he was forgetting something, but

for the life of him he couldn't remember what it was. Just then his hand

graced his jeans, feeling Riptide and Waverider inside and it hit him.

"Thalia, I'll meet up with you and the others later," Percy kissed her

forehead, "there's something I have to do."

Thalia looked at Zoe and smirked, "you do realise she'd take a vow of

chastity right?"

Percy rolled his eyes, "oh shut up you," Thalia giggled as she gave him

a kiss and left, allowing Percy to catch up with Zoe. "Zoe! We need to

talk."

The lieutenant of the Hunters turned around, "about what?"

"About this?" Percy reached into his pocket and pulled out Riptide, he

flicked the cap open revealing its true form. The bronze shined in the

sun, it's metal polished like the day he stole it from Chion. And upon

seeing it's from Zoe gasped in recognition.

"Anaklusmos," she whispered in recognition.

Percy nodded as he held the sword up, "Chiron gave it to me...well it's

more like I took it from him, but I swear it was totally for a good

reason...kind of."

Zoe held out her hand and Percy gave the blade to her handle first.

She traced her fingers down the greek letters carved into it's spine,

looking at it's sides with nostalgic gaze. Her eyes quickly settled on the

tip where a small chip was broken off. She narrowed her eyes, "it is

chipped."

Percy rubbed his neck, "yeah...sorry about that. I needed to use it to

make myself a new weapon and...if I had another choice I would have

taken it, I swear. But I didn't."

Zoe sighed, "I have not seen this accursed blade in a long time."

"It belongs to you yes?" Percy asked recalling the description he read

on Riptide the first time he got it. He remembered it so clearly, "I...I just

thought you should know. If you want it I don't mind giving it back, I

mean technically it is your blade after all."

Zoe looked at Percy and then back to Riptide. She closed her eyes and

sighed, tossing it back to Percy before turning and leaving, "keep it, it

has brought me nothing but pain and suffering. I hope for thou it proves

to be useful."

Percy was a little disappointed she didn't want the blade, after all it was

hers. He didn't feel disappointed for himself though, but more for

Riptide, it was strange, yes, but it felt like the blade shined less now,

almost like it was sad being rejected by it's true master.

Percy capped the sword and walked back to Thalia, all the while

wondering just what was the real story of Riptide, Zoe and Hercules.

At 3 in the afternoon:

Percy had summoned his servants out and assigned them duties. The

Romans and greeks knew about all his servants, so he found no

reason to hide them anymore. He summoned every single one of them,

except Aceous. He wasn't sure, but he didn't want to risk Gia's gaze

focusing on him by bringing back her supposedly dead son.

The Romans were given Hyperion to order around while the rest were

assigned various duties. Timmy and Alecto were ordered to patrol the

skies while Marcia, Craig and Zed were limited to the ground troops.

Percy also summoned Cerberus, he let the dog play around all over

the place, and when Nico arrived he placed the dog under him and

Bianca's care.

The Hermes squad had arrived a little after noon. Nico, Bianca and

Decker were thrilled to seeing all their friends agains after so long. In

real life that is.

Nico and Bianca set to work immediately afterwards, with Percy's help

they were able to build trenches and pit falls in seconds while it would

have taken hours normally.

The entire greek and Roman army became very mingled with one

another, they had already fought in a way together, and now seeing the

Greeks come to the Roman's side only made strengthened their

relationship.

Nico also set to work getting rid of all the fairs in camp. It wasn't a

popular move, but it was needed. Once Percy mentioned how there

were rumors of necromancers hidden in the Titan's ranks everyone

realised the ghosts were a liability.

In some cases the ghosts themselves willingly left, swearing to travel

the countryside to reach camp half-blood, reuniting with the others

once more in the new location for New Rome.

The path in the labyrinth became cleared up, Percy went through the

thing five time, following the rope vine that Katie and Castor had made.

And once he was sure it lead to from camp Jupiter to the entrance

below the Fist of Zeus he had several others test it.

Chapter 734

It was a few people at first, Percy didn't know if his powers were the

reason one could travel between the points, or it was because the

Labyrinth was actually designed that way, after all every time someone

went into it they were with Percy in some form. But now that couldn't be

guaranteed.

So they had to test it out. Five people went in first with Percy following

them twenty feet behind. Then went that was successful it increased to

thirty people with Percy following fifth feet behind.

It went upto a hundred demigods going in the Labyrinth and reaching

the other side without issue and alone. It seemed that Percy's powers

merely helped show the closest route to a desired location within the

Labyrinth, meaning if one knew it, they didn't require Percy to guide

them.

And so their escape route was secured.

The fort had also been packed up, the construction material was 40

feet high and weighed several tons. Most were wondering how Percy

would even transport all of this, and their jaws were all on the floor

when he saw it pick it up and throw it into his inventory.

Percy had to release three of his seals to obtain the required strength,

but it was worth it. He quickly had everything packed away in the fort

and slowly the city of New Rome was being packed as well.

Nearly half the governmental buildings were stored in Percy's storage

by now, with a few buildings and the college. The people were working

tirelessly, and when he could Percy leant a helping hand. But right now

his attention was required elsewhere.

"What have you found?" Percy asked as Carrie lead him into the

library. The shelves were being broken down and the books stored in

cardboard boxes. They were neatly packed and documented, Carrie's

influence no doubt.

She lead him to a corner of the library that was still in one piece,

pointing at an open book before them that displayed a warrior fighting

in a large battle with the name Achilles displayed in bold on top in

ancient greek.

"The curse is something that is giving by the river of the Underworld,

the Styx," Carrie worded her sentence carefully as to not accidentally

swear an oath on the ancient river, "each of the rivers in the underworld

has a particular property. One can heal all wounds, one can wipe away

your memories and this one, can make any who dip themselves in it

immune to mortal weapons."

Percy read the text quickly, learning in detail just what had happened to

Achilles, "so anyone who dips themselves in the river become

invulnerable?"

"Yes, completely invulnerable, except for one spot on their body."

"Their heel?" Percy asked.

"No, that is not the case," Carrie shook her head, "from what I have

found it is discovered that one's mortal point could be anywhere, it

depends on the person. Achelis was just a child when his mother

dipped him into the pool holding him up by his ankles. He had no

choice in his mortal point, it was chosen for him. But if an adult dips

inside..."

"Then they can chose whatever point they want," Percy cursed, "this is

bad, this is very very bad. Is there anyway to counter this? Any spell?

Anything?"

And to his great surprise, Carrie smiled. "Yes, there is."

Percy blinked in utter surprise, "really?"

"Really," Carrie nodded, "the little Timber, the river that surrounds us, it

is a piece of Roman heritage, an enchanted piece of the real Timber

than follows the camp around wherever we go. We have no control

over it, but it is exactly what you are looking for. The curse of Achilles if

a Greek curse, as such a wash in a roman river can counter the curse,

making the user vulnerable once more."

Percy's face threatened to split in two with his grin, "Carrie, I could kiss

you."

"Do that and I'll skin you alive."

"And yet my feelings don't change," Percy smiled, "this is perfect

Carrie, thank you. This is exactly what I needed. I may not be able to

fight him back, but at least now he isn't going to fucking untouchable."

Carrie raised an eyebrow, "who are you talking about?"

Percy meet her eyes and whispered, "Saturn."

Fear struck her deep as she connected the dots. "If he gets the curse-"

"-He will be unstoppable," Percy nodded before smiling, "but as you

just said Carrie, we now have a way to stop him, at least until we can

get everyone to safety."

Carrie eventually calmed down and Percy helped her get packed. It

didn't take long, thanks to his super speed, and he wished her well

before leaving to find Thalia.

He searched the fort and the army ranks for her finding her in the fifth

cohort with Jason and a couple of his friends.

Percy watched from afar as she laughed at a story Jason told her

about the time he was chased down by an angry Hannibal the

elephant.

"Oh and till this day everytime Hannibal looks at me I swear it's like he

wants to strangle me with it's trunk!" Jason snorted as the others

laughed.

Thalia chuckled, "well little brother you know what the say, elephants

have a long memory. They never forget anything."

"So basically you're screwed Jason," a male legionnaire spoke up

causing everyone to chuckle at the son of Jupiter.

Percy smiled as he watched Thalia and Jason exchange stories, it had

made him envious to say the least, he never did have a proper brother.

John didn't count, he and Percy never lived in the same house, never

experienced the same things. It was cruel really, to live in a place

surrounded by family and still feel alone to a certain degree.

Percy always felt that the demigods were his family...but they weren't

always-

"What's that?!" someone cried out. Everyone turned to the skies and

there flying right at them was a flaming iron ball.

Percy's eyes widened, he turned to Thalia, "Thalia! Get everyone

ready! I'll hold them off for as long as I can!"

Thalia turned to Percy and nodded. Percy readied his gauntlet and

cried out, "Tsunami!" the armor exploded onto his body, covering him in

his now iconic black armour with the white cape fluttering behind him.

Next Percy released his strength seals;

Seal Release: Layer 10 Time: 1 1.2 months

STR- 42,467,328 (+11+20+75)= 42,467,436

He jumped into the air, leaping towards that flaming ball. Percy

reached it in seconds, he threw his right hand out, thrusting it into the

flaming iron ball, and threw it back with all his might.

Chapter 735

The small shot back like a bullet out of a gun, flying back towards the

army coming in the horizon. Percy floated in the air and looked down,

the army was coming at them from the North, simple and direct.

The cannonball landed in the heart of a approaching army, Percy could

see with his 8.0 vision that several enhanced animals had died from

the impact.

Percy waved his hand forming a misty surface, he tossed a coin in and

called up Rob. In seconds the praetor appeared before him.

"Percy, where are they?!"

"They are coming North," Percy told him, "I can see giants, enhanced

animals, monsters, everything. But a few of the giants and undead are

missing, I think either they are being held back for a second wave or

their coming from another direction."

Rob nodded, "I'll move our troops, hold them back for as long as you

can."

"Don't worry I fully-"

"PERCY JACKSON! COME AND FACE ME!"

It reminded Percy of a scene from his trials, when he was sent to a

world unlike his own, where everyone he loved died, where he had to

defeat Kronos as a human. It was a dream, but it felt so real, and it

began with Kronos inviting them while riding a dragon.

Which was exactly what he was doing now.

The beast was green with blackish scales and a wing span large

enough to eclipse a a football field. And on it's neck stood Kronos,

riding into battle as he pulled on the chains tied around the dragon's

neck.

"Oh you have got to be kidding me!" Percy hissed.

Anacleto and Timmy quickly came to Percy's side. They too stared at

the giant monstrosity currently flying towards them in awe.

"What's the plan?" Timmy asked.

"The plan is this, Timmy you and I are going after him, I'll take on

Kronos you fight the dragon, Alceto, if you see anything else flying that

isn't with us, take it down. Got that?"

Alecto drew her arrows, "got it."

"Then let's move!" Percy cried out as he and Timmy charged forward.

"JACKSON!" Kronos cried out.

"Hey!" Percy cried out as he charged in like a cannonball right into

Kronos's chest, pushing him off the dragon, falling downwards with

him.

Once they were out of the way Timmy used his powers to cause

several gusts of wind to push up against the dragon's wings, batting it

around like a rubber ball.

Percy and Kronos crashed into the Earth in the middle of the forest

surrounding camp. Kronos's back took all the damage with the

demigod standing over him. Percy quickly took out his blades, thrusting

them at the Titan's eyes.

Kronos saw the blades coming and acted on instinct, activating his

powers over time to slow Percy down.

The demigod's body felt like it was moving through jelly, Kronos was

slowing him down, but not for long. Using his own powers over time

Percy felt the strange way Kronos used his mana to restrain him, and

broke through.

Ping!

You have created a new skill!

Percy was able to move once again, but by then Kronos had managed

to push him off his body, throwing him into a nearby tree.

Percy quickly got back on his feet and looked up at Kronos, the mad

titan had taken out his own blade, narrowing his eyes at Percy.

"This time you will die Percy Jackson," Kronos growled, "you aren't

as powerful as you were back in the dream world, I can feel it!"

Percy gulped, "maybe, but I've fought monsters like you before, I have

gone up against bigger odds and won. I have been fighting smart long

before I have been fighting hard, so this is just going to be me doing a

throwback to old times."

Kronos growled as he charged ahead with his blade in hand. He

swiped at Percy's sides, aiming to cut off his head and or limbs. But the

demigod was too fast for the Titan.

Percy kept dodging out of the way, not allowing a single strike to come

close to him, knowing that if it did it would be his last.

Kronos strikes came faster and faster, until Percy was forced to block a

strike with both his blades, throwing him through the air and into

several tree trunks.

Percy groaned as his arm felt like they were ringing, the blades didn't

shatter from the pure force of the attack, and that could only be

attributed to the fact that they were indestructible. Any other normal

blade, heck, if they were made of Imperial gold they would have

shattered.

Kronos stepped up to Percy, a smile on his handsome face. He foot his

foot on his chest and pushed.

"Argh!" Percy cried out in pain.

"Scream for me Jackson! Scream!"

He pushed down harder, the pile of broken wood Percy laid down on

became crushed into splinters as Percy was pressed down into them.

His body was in pain, it was nearly impossible to deal with. Kronos

raised thrusted his blade forward under Percy's neck. On instinct Percy

looked down, protecting it, catching the blade with his helmet.

Kronos growled a he used his blade as a lever and swiped upwards.

Percy's helmet groaned before it was ripped off from the rest of his

armour revealing his face. Kronos blade danced across his face,

cutting him from his right jaw to the bottom of his eye. The scar would

never disappear.

Percy looked at Kronos, meeting his golden eyes, He grabbed onto

Kronos' feet, activating his body form;

Body Form activated: Full Body!

STR- 42,467,436 X 10 = 424,674,360

He pushed upwards, but Kronos couldn't be moved.

"I will send Thalia your love," Kronos spat out, "do not worry, she

will join you soon enough."

He brought down his sword, Percy was just about to activate his smoke

form and get out of the way when suddenly a pitch black blade came

forward and stopped Kronos's weapon in it's tracks. The ting of their

clash was loud, it sounded like a metal rod hitting a concrete wall.

And holding the black blade was the last person Percy was excepting.

Her blonde hair was let loose reaching till her lower back. She no

longer wore her pencil skirt and white blouse but instead was dressed

in blue robes with white borders. She looked at Kronos, meeting his

eyes, "heya crazy farmer! Fancy meeting you here!"

"Who in Hades are you?" Kronos asked.

"Mrs. J?" Percy asked in utter surprise.

"Heya Percy! Oh, looks like you're in trouble there, no matter," she

flicked her blade throwing Kronos' arm upwards before she sent a

punch into his solar plexus causing him to go flying backwards into the

air, his sword thrown out of his grip.

"There we go," Mrs. J smiled as looked down at Percy, "well? What are

you waiting for? An invitation? Get your fine ass up Percy!"

Percy got up slowly, his eyes went to her fists which was coated black,

a familiar hue. His eyes went wide, "haki? But, how can you know

haki?"

"Oh come on now Percy, surely you don't still think I'm just an ordinary

highschool teacher do you?" Mrs. J chuckled as she snapped her

fingers causing her hair to turn from a golden blonde to a deep blue.

And her eyes turned from green with golden specks in them, to a

sulphuric yellow.

"Y-you're not normal," Percy said as he looked up at her name,

demanding her identity;

Tanya Jameson, Real life Lara Croft

Lv- 21

And suddenly in front of his eyes it started to change.

Tanya Jameson, Here to help!

Lv- it's over nine thousand!

"What the fuck?" Percy asked as he blinked, "how-"

"-How am I doing that?" Mrs. J asked, "well you see if you know how to

use Haki properly, the entire world is basically your playground. I can

make my title read anything I want it too," she snapped her fingers

again and once more the words floating above her head changed;

Percy Jackson, Sexy seductress

Lv- Pink fluffy unicorn!

Percy couldn't' believe what he was seeing. For the first time ever his

powers weren't working, and this one was given to him by CHAOS

itself! He met her eyes, "who are you?"

The woman smiled, "to keep it simple just keep calling me Mrs. J," as

she spoke her title changed to just that, "and as for what I am...well

that's a long story. And we don't have time. But what you should know

is that I'm here to help, always."

Percy was about to open his mouth to ask what she means when he

looked over her shoulder and spotted Kronos charging right at them,

with his blade in hand. Damn Titan was fast!

"Ah, he's back, quicker than I expected," Mrs. J frowned, "oh well.

Ready to do this partner?"

Percy knew he didn't have a choice, he needed all the help he could

get. He readied his weapons and stood by her side as Kronos came for

them. Before they began their attack he whispered, "if you betray me I

will destroy you."

Mrs. J just smiled, "if I ever betray you, I will kill myself. This I swear on

the Styx." Thunder rumbled in the sky and Percy could only look on in

utter disbelief as she charged at Kronos with her haki infused weapon.
