Pain coursed through Percy's body. Not the pain he was used to. This one was unfamiliar. A painful gut feeling screamed inside him reminding him that this was to be expected.
"Tell me this is mist at work. This is not real. TELL ME!" Percy shouted at Nico. He did not heed the weak voice in his mind that told him it was not Nico's fault. Nico did not speak, but his silence was louder than any word could be.
In front of Percy was lying dead his mother. Sally Jackson. Blood surrounded her body as it oozed out from her body. It was still flowing out, so whoever did this could not have gone far.
Percy's hands stiffened. A rage, something he had been holding for far too long, threatened to take over him.
Somebody had killed his mother. And they had to pay for it.
"You need to calm down Percy. Calm down." Nico said soothingly. Annabeth tried to grab Percy's arm to comfort him, but she was just as much shaken as Percy and Nico. She found it hard to believe her eyes as well. Who could hurt someone as sweet and kind as Sally? Annabeth wanted to rip out their guts and feed them to them. But she knew she needed to control Percy right now, for the sake of all the people living in New York City.
Nico had felt the death of someone he knew, just about 10 minutes ago. Immediately he went to the underworld to check it out and it surprised the heck out of him to know that Sally Jackson, the greatest mortal in Earth, had died. Not died, she had been murdered brutally. Not by a monster, but by a demigod or god. Nico didn't know who did it, but all he knew was that they would pay for it, even if it was Zeus himself.
For now, all that scared Nico was the amount of energy in Percy right now. If he let that energy loose, the entire state of New York would be wiped from the face of Earth. That would be as strong as a Hydrogen bomb and Nico and Annabeth were right in the center of the nuclear site. More than himself, Nico worried about Annabeth. While he could shadow travel immediately, carrying two people would take more time which would kill them.
"I need to know who did this." Percy said in a dangerously calm voice.
"You need to calm down Percy." Nico said, reading himself to contain a nuclear blast.
Percy ignored Nico and ran down the apartment. Nico sighed before deciding to follow him. Annabeth ran behind him as well. Nico had not even told Percy about Paul yet. Paul was lying dead on the next room along with Estelle.
Percy ran down the street, frantic and searching for any clue leading to anything. He could find a trail of divine energy heading towards the empire state building. Percy followed it, running like a madmen with blood filled eyes.
He had given in to his inner primal energy and nothing could stop him then. It was a blood lust that filled him, which suppressed his rational thinking, and even his fatal flaw.
Annabeth kept running behind Percy shouting out to him, trying to stop him. But it was to no avail. She could feel the ground shaking underneath her feet.
After all it was Percy, son of Poseidon the Earthshaker.
Soon enough Percy met the person who was responsible for the death of Sally, and was about to be the reason of the death of a few million people.
And it was none other than Atlas.
No idea who was holding the sky while Atlas was here, but something happened and Atlas was free, and the first thing he decided to do was to kill Percy's parents and baby sister.
"Hey boy, I guess you saw what I did." Atlas said. He was sipping from his cup of hot coffee, sitting on a chair outside a Starbucks cafe. Nico and Annabeth came to a stop right behind Percy with their weapons drawn. Percy did not even take out Riptide.
The mortals nearby just saw 3 ordinary people and a big buffy guy on a chair, like a WWE wrestler.
"Why did you do it?" Percy asked. His words were like venom.
"To get you here, kid. Why else did you think we killed your entire family?"
"What do you mean my entire family?" Percy asked.
"Oh i guess your friends were too scared to show you the others. Well, the titans wanted a little fun and we just thought about how you have been making our lives hell. So we planned to do the same to you." The crazy titan grinned. All of a sudden 3 other titans came out of wherever they were hiding.
"Oh sweet Jackson boy. You've been a hero for too long." Crius, another evil titan, came out of the shadows. "We have been in Tartarus for 3 years after you killed Kronos."
On the other side of Crius was Epimetheus and a titan that they could not recognize.
There were 4 titans, against 3 demigods. Nico with his Stygian Iron sword charged at the unknown Titan. Annabeth faced Epimetheus. Percy stared dead at the eyes of Atlas and Cronus who stood beside Atlas.
"You will pay for this Atlas."
Annabeth and Nico kept on dodging and slashing at their enemies. The titans easily overpowered the two, leaving them both on the ground. Nico realized that they needed help. No way was Percy going to defeat 4 strong titans at their full power. He opened an IM with CHB and shouted out for Chiron asking for help. It was karaoke time in CHB and all the IM opened in front of all the gathered demigods.
"Nico take Annabeth and go away to camp right now." Percy ordered dangerously.
"We are not leaving you alone here right now." Annabeth protested. Nico decided to obey Percy, knowing that it was the only way. If Percy would go all nuclear right then and there, he needed to get Annabeth out of there. He grabbed Annabeth's hand and shadow travelled to camp.
Unfortunately Annabeth being the smartest, left Nico's hand in the last moment, thus remaining there while Nico was in Camp.
All the 4 titans rushed at Percy.
Percy's eyes glowed. Dark clouds spread over the area. Percy could feel the power leaving himself. He could no longer control the power. The power controlled him.
As soon as the titans were about to pierce their swords in Percy, he let out a guttural scream of rage as the blue aura surrounding Percy darkened into black. The earth underneath him cracked and the crack travelled hundreds of miles in the city.
"THAT'S FOR KILLING MY MOTHER!" Percy shouted at his highest voice and thrust his arms upwards towards the sky. The titans were stopped from killing Percy and were thrown back. A full scale cyclone appeared out of nowhere and the air nearby lost all its moisture becoming absolutely dry and hot.
Soon enough it was realized that the entire state of New York was floating on air with the water below creating an upwards pressure pushing it up in the air.
Huge ice swords appeared on both hands of Percy as he thrust both his hands in the chests of the titans. The ice pierced through the titan's hearts. Percy pulled his hands out. He directed the cyclone towards the other 2 titans. After that he began rapidly slicing at the titans with his ice frosted hands. He was a complete blur. All the buildings around Percy began to burst. Whether it was because of the water inside, or the plumbing, no one knew, but they burst as if bombs were fit inside them. The state of New York kept rising up in the air. There was no science explaining this now.
Several gods realized that the world was splitting apart in two. They all teleported to the place of commotion: where Percy was.
"Okay, okay. Stop. We surrender." Atlas gasped while getting another stab at his chest. Ichor from the 4 titans coated the ground. They could not even use their weapons against Percy.
Percy spread his arms like an eagle and the empire State building which was close to the place, collapsed. It was all 102 floors of the empire state building that burst with hydrostatic pressure and collapsed. The building, and all the rubble fell right on top of Percy and everyone nearby. Percy summoned the water present everywhere within a 5 mile radius, and used it all to completely flood the area. While Percy was still underneath the building, the water shield surrounding him protected him from the building collapsing above him.
The gods decided to get the heck out of there. The titans were all dead, each and everyone of them. They were crushed to pieces.
Suddenly Percy's senses came back and he regained control over his power. The floating land dropped from a 200 meter height and before Percy could realize what was about to happen, he managed to completely destroy the East Coast of America and sent hurricanes so powerful, that they hit the coast line of Europe and sunk hundreds of miles of coast under the ocean.
It was the greatest disaster the world had ever seen.
Percy had killed more than 60 million people just while avenging 3 people.
And when Percy realized what he had done, he saw Annabeth beside him, spread on the ground, dead with a single narrow stream of blood in her forehead.
She was dead.
A/N:
So, that was it for this chapter. Can you believe this? I managed to kill 60 million people in 1 chapter. Seems kinda too OP. Also Annabeth is dead.
So, what's going to happen now?
To be fair, idk.
But let's find out on the way. together, you and I.
