"Godhood"
a/n: I cannot understand how he killed Jason without even giving us a prequel of his life as a book
summary: in which Percy fell to Tartarus on his own and returned with extreme powers just like Nico and Jason fell down during another quest. That gets a 3/3 for the sons of the big three and let's just say that they're all growing restless. All three of these falls having two things in common: the three baring the curse of Achilles and becoming the champions of Lady Nyx
warnings: bloodbending, nervebending, bonebending, gore, weapons, panic/ anxiety attacks, talks about tartarus.
🌊⚡💀
The floor had started cracking and screeching under all this pressure. Hazel yelled at Percy to 'cut it' and he did, a moment too late, with more momentum than wanted. He found himself grabbing onto a ledge, holding on for dear life.
"Nico, I'll see you on the other side. Lead them there! Promise me!" Percy yelled in order to be heard, not wanting his possible last words to be swallowed too by the pit.
"I-I will, I promise Percy, I will." Nico replied shaken up.
"Percy noo, hang in there Jason and Frank are coming, they're going to save you, please don't give up yet, don't fall down there... I can't lose you again..." said Annabeth, desperation painting her voice.
"They will be shacked in too 'Beth, they can't help... It's my destiny to fall, it's gonna be okay, trust me, I'll come back to you, I love you"
And just like that he was gone. They tried to be positive. Nico and Jason shared a gut feeling. That their cousin would come back tougher and they ended up right.
Percy dealt with whatever that discusting place threw at him. Arachne, gone. Curses, surpassed. Akhlys dead, poisoned with her own poison. He even went to the river of Styx and got back the curse of Achilles and became the champion of Nyx. He fought Tartarus along side Bob, small Bob and Damasen. He used Tartarus' own blood, the 5 rivers, to hurt him and it worked. The three friends and their cat manage to escape just fine, Nyx guarding the button as her champion made it back home. And when they got out all hell broke loose. They helped the rest of the seven on the journey and they managed to beat Gaia.
However, only two people were informed about Percy's new powers. After the battle, when everything was settled, they little big three sat by the sea. The only place were all three of their domains blended together. The sky above, Jason's to command, the sea between Percy's to control, the earth beneath Nico's to rule. All three every bit of the princes their fathers thought them to be.
"My powers grew down there... I don't know how to explain it, but I suddenly feel whole. Like a part of me was missing." Percy admitted
"Yeah, I get it, that's how I felt down there two, like my powers got doubled" Nico continued
"So that means that I'm the only one left along with the girls." Jason thought aloud.
"I don't think they are going to be dragged into this, whatever this is..." trailed Nico, the fingers of his right hand twiching, that hand that bared the branding of Nyx, just like Percy's own
"Ahh, what can I say? Maybe if I fall I'll finally get all my memories back.." Jason said laughing a little, his cousins joining in. They just sat there for a while. The company somehow calming.
🌊⚡💀
Little did they know that Jason's words would ring true after a couple of months. He had gone on a solo quest to retreive something for his father. Things took a nasty turn when he had to deal with Mnemosyne. She promised him, as the titaness of memory, to give him his memory back if he dropped this quest. He was never going to dissapoint his father like this. Jupiter entrusted him with an extremely personal quest. He would do whatever it took to carry it through.
The 'whatever it took' ended up being falling into the pit. By the time he got out his memory had come back. His right hand matching those of his cousins. He learned how to nervebend down there, how to suffocate living creatures with his mind. How to electrocute someone's brain.
🌊⚡💀
After Jason returned the three hanged out more and more. Doing everything together. As the only big three kids at camp, the did all the activities together. Training became even better. They could often be seen having three way battles in the arena, or even visiting New Rome's colluseum for a more formal fight. Chiron was often called to referee, as the boys accepted his judjement better. Other times, Lupa would be the one to referee, just for fun. She enjoyed seeing the 'cub' she had raised have fun alongside his cousins.
Hardly ever was there a clear winner between the three, they didn't mind it though. Most of the time they would start with no powers, slowly they would add things as they progressed into their little play. At this point, it was almost theatrical. And there were always other campers watching.
The trio learned how to fight in tandem. At some point, there was a capture the flag where it was them three against the whole camp. Chiron was asking the opposite team if they wanted to rethink their desicion, but Annabeth wouldn't badge, saying that they had every possible advantage and since the trio was fine why should they go against such a decision. Little did they know that Chiron asked them for their own protection.
The three never revealed that they were champions of Nyx to the camp, only Chiron and Lupa knew. So when Friday night rolled around th big three kids were ready. Nico stayed back, guarding the flag from afar. Blending with the shadows easily. After Nyx blessed him he stopped fading into them and was able to control them better. He was not afraid of them anymore, the shadows acted protective around him now, regenerating him.
In record breaking time his cousins came back with the flag of the other team drapped arounf their shoulders. They went up to him and hugged him tight, celebrating like little kids.
"PERSEUS JACKSON!!!" came the voice of one Annabeth Chase, and let me tell you she sounded angry.
"HOW just HOW did you idiots win??" she almost growled
"What do you mean 'Beth?" Percy responded innocently
"Yeah what you on about, 'Beth?" Jason teased her.
The trio walked away, Annabeth and her sblings were left fuming over the humiliating loss. The rest were just shocked.
"Chiron, this can't go on!" Annabeth sceramed
"Hmmm? Come again kid? What happened? I didn't see anything against the rules..." Chiron replied calmly.
"Yes and you mean to telm me there was nothing? And these three dufuses managed to somehow beat the whole camp this easy? Nico was almost sleeping!" Annabeth expressed
"My dear, I suggest you asked them about this, maybe take Piper and Will with you too..."
🌊⚡💀
Annabeth adn the other two went looking for the big three kids. They wanted some kind of explanation. And where did they find them? By the sea, smoking some cigarrets.
"What are you three doing??" Piper asked, clearly pissed off.
"What do you mean?" replied Jason, a peaceful look on his face.
"What is going on? You three win a match against the whole camp easy and then you disappear and we find you smoking by the sea." Will argued
"Well, it's not like we are going to die from smoking..." said Percy already laughing a bit. Jason tried to cover it but ended up rolloing on the floor alongside Nico.
"Can we have an actual conversation?" Annabeth asked.
"Tomorrow morning" Nico suggestes, after he stopped laughing
"We swear we wil behave and tell you everything." Percy stated
They said their goodnights and went to sleep in Cabin 3. Their fathers finally okay with each other and each others kids, not that Poseidon ever attempted to kill his nephews or his nieces.
🌊⚡💀
When the next day rolled around, the trio waited post-breakfast to meet up with their lovers and explain everything. They found themselves sitting by the strawberry fields. Annabeth, ever curious, was the one to prod for information.
"So, who is going to explain what's going on?"
"Should I start guys?" questioned Jason
"Yep" came a reply from Percy, who tried to act calm.
"Okay, please don't interupt me. So you know how all of us had a trip down to the pit a some point. Well, we all came back having the same feeling, like we were finally whole, like a part of our powers was unlocked down there and it was. You see all three of us bare the curse of Achilles and became the champions of Nyx. We hid it well, but we also gained new powers. Creepy powers. Uncontrolable. Untameable. To the point we had a meeting with our fathers because of it."
"The news are at the very least concerning. You see they confirmed a suspicion we had." continued Percy
"Come on guys, say it" Will prompted
"We are turning" Nico said lightly, even thoughanxiety danced in his dark eyes
"You are turning into what?" Piper asked, not getting what was being said.
By now, Annabeth was pale in the face.
"You-you are turning into gods, aren't you? How-w? Why-y?"
"'Beth there is nothing we can do to stop the proccess. With our fathers' calculation we will have turned by the end of the summer... So we accepted it..."
"You-you can't be serious!" Annabeth was left speachless after this. She got up and started walking in circles. Mutering to herself...
The alarm of the camp was heard. Everyone got on their feet, leaving this talk behind until this threat was dealt with. However, the attack was not something just everyone could handle, no. They headed down to the beach and realized the attacker was the Craken.
The three demigods leapt into action without second thought. They worked in sync with one another so perfectly it looked like a dance. Jason was flying while stabbing the enormous monster. Percy used the sea to make a pillar of water while he attacked the monster too. Nico was riding a thestral, a magical horse that looked like a pegasus with the difference that it had a skeletal look to it and that only people who had seen death could see it, to help his cousins.
They soon realized that the monster wasn't going to be defeated by mere swords. They started using their powers. Jason and Pecry made a storm, combining their powers perfectly. With a storm so huge the sun was soon covered. Nico used it to his advantage, taking the shadows under his command and tieing the creature up. He bended many of its bones so it wouldn't be able to hurt him and his cousins while they were killing it.
The other two understood Nico's plan immediately. Percy started bloodbending and liquidbending everything he could feel inside the Craken. Jason took control over the nerves of the monster deaming it impossible to move. Within a couple more minutes, the monster was golden dust and the three, now exhausted, demigods fell into the sea.
🌊⚡💀
The trio was taken to the infirmary and Chiron after realizing the gravity of the situation contacted the big three about their sons. The three gods quickly visited the camp to understand what exactly had happened and what was going on with their kids.
"They are close, I can feel it.." Hades muttered to his two brothers, looking concerned for his son and his nephews.
"We should transport them. When they change they shouldn't be around mortals. Besides, it's going to take a while before the transformation is complete. We have to monitor them" Poseidon expressed.
"I think the best solution is to take the to Olympus. That way Apollo can treat them and monitor their progress and we can see them and visit them."
"I agree that it's the best option" Hades said
"Me three"
They informed Chiron and teleported with their sons away. Apollo was stunned to say the least. He agreed that this desicion was the best for the three soon-to-be gods.
🌊⚡💀
The days passed by. The campers weren't informed about the situation and Annabeth was growing restless. Will had told her what he knew but Chiron refused to say anything about the matter. In the end Annabeth, will and Piper ended up outside the Empire State Building to learn about their lovers.
They found the big three sitting by a fountain in the common gardens. As politely as possible they decided to question them regarding the whereabouts of their lovers.
"My Lords" Annabeth greeted
"Hello" came the reply of Poseidon while the other two nodded their way kindly.
"What's the reason of this unexpected visit?" Hades asked calmly.
"We want to know what is going on with our lovers.. you know your sons?" Piper said tense and anxious. She hadn't been sleeping well due to this whole ordeal.
"They're resting in Apollo's infirmary. We will guide you there under some conditions" Zeus said
"What are these conditions my Lords?" Will questioned
"You must not get too close to either of them. They are turning and even a minor thing can cause problems for their well-being. That's why we transporte them. You need to be careful because if they turn while you are in the room you could die" Hades explained
"We can protect you up to a point but we still don't know just how powerful they will become. When a god turns, no one else should be present."
They started walking towards Apollo's palace. Said god was standing outside, chatting with one of the Muses.
"Apollo stop flirting and come here, we want an update!" Poseidon shouted at his nephew.
"Uncle, don't be so angry. Your mood messes with the weather and I cannot be seen"
"Kid just behave for 5 minutes and update us then be on your way or whatever." Hades cut in, not wanting an argument to break through. With how antsy his brothers were it was quite easy to happen.
🌊⚡💀
