《The Unknown》Chapter 2: The life he lived
Advertisement
The feeling of the darkness was like a dream, he was in nothingness and he knew it. But that was when he saw himself floating and then waving his hands, emerging from noting a little girl was formed. Her skin resembled that of the night sky and her eyes were nebulae themselves. She was the only source of light in the entire of existence
That is when Percy saw himself create a second and third child, both boys. One was white skinned, literally white. He had skin that resembled paper and eyes like his father. Then there was the third child; he looked grumpy with an entire black body, and a frown on his face.
And Percy saw himself leave them to watch them live their lives knowing that they would be his proudest achievement. They were Chaos, Order and Void, his three children.
As they grew up Chaos used her abilities to create stars, she started having fun with them, even feeding her baby brother Void them; that seemed to make him happy. But then Order he was never happy of his sisters ability, he was jealous. All he had was intellect and destruction but his intellect only went so far while his emotions were out of control. His anger and jealousy caused him to turn on his sister, destroying all of her creations and even kicking his brother around. It was then that the first war began, the event known as the big bang to all humans.
Chaos was playing with Void trying to get him to smile when Order came and attacked them, it was not a long fight because while Chaos and Order fought and were similarly matched, Void knew what he had to do and felt it was what he was born for. He proceeded to eat a weakened Order, sealing off his powers but ultimately killing himself.
Chaos wept for her brother, he was so innocent and he sacrificed himself for her. And Percy wept, he watched 2 of his sons die and now he had to see his daughter in pain. So he watched Chaos as she looked at her creation, all that she made during the short battle.

She created her first universe, a rather beautiful thing, exactly like her skin. So she decided on giving it life and created her first children, a skill worthy of her father. And so she created Gaia, her daughter and made Earth, that is when she made Gaia a family, first a man to love and then siblings to play with, just as she played with and loved Void.
Those were the primordials, the 'first' beings. And so she created more planets and gave each of them to her children after they were dethroned on Earth, giving them new names and personalities. It all was rather quick to Percy, a few millennia was truly nothing to him.
But the moment that captured Percy's attention the most was when he saw Leto on an island giving birth to the most beautiful baby girl in the world. She had soft auburn hair and shining silver eyes, many times he would get lost in them and that is when he fell in love with her. But now he simply watched as she helped the birth of her younger brother.
And thus the twins Artemis and Apollo were born, it was 5 days later that they were able to make it to the main land and try to make it to Olympus, where Zeus promised them sanctuary and life. But on their way the Python caught scent of them and began it's hunt. Apollo believed that he could protect his mother and sister and so he fought it, his arrows could not dent its scales and it's movements were quick and deadly. It was at the last moment when Apollo stood against the approaching Python that he loaded an arrow aiming for its eye. But Percy knew it wouldn't meet its mark, Artemis was the better archer of the two but Leto and Apollo held her back from fighting.
Just as Apollo loosed his last arrow Percy saw himself shoot a single one of Apollo's arrow and as Apollo was shaking his arrow flew over the creature disappearing into the forest while Percy's sailed true into the eye of the beast. As it crumbled Percy left, walking back into the forest before he vanished. Percy watched as Artemis grew her beauty only advancing, and her skills surpassing all others. But with these skills she put herself in far to much danger as Percy thought, he protected her as best he could without revealing himself. He always hated when he wasn't able to and she got hurt, the pain on her angelic face was unbearable for him.

Then there was the time he saw her and that Orion guy, his skill for archery was as good as his silver tongue. He lied to Artemis just as he raped a poor maiden and how he tried to seduce her huntress. He watched as she seemed attached to him, his skill blinding her from the truth.
So Percy took it into his own hands and influenced Apollo, the one he knew would be able to protect his sister without revealing himself. And so he entered Apollo's conscious, speaking to him of a treacherous man trying to seduce his sister. He watched as Apollo's face turned to one of rage and then of a dangerously calm façade.
He was proud of Apollo's protective ways, the way that he convinced Orion to go swimming but having Artemis kill him was not what he wanted. He was ashamed that she had to unknowingly take his life no matter how much he deserved it. But that left him with Orion, giving him a detour from his trip to the underworld.
Percy watched as he had a lovely chat with Orion, teaching him many things in how to live and treat women for an entire year before releasing a changed man to his future. Where he knew he would eventually see him again.
Percy continued to watch over Artemis, how she hunted and how she grew always happy that she never showed any affection to men. That is until he came along. Artemis' meeting with Percy Jackson at first hurt because of all the hate that she had for men but she slowly accepted that he was different, he saw the moment that Artemis was captured by Atlas and tricked into holding the sky for Annabeth, Percy knew he couldn't take it for her so he did the next best thing and lessened the weight. Simply by doing this he knew she would be able to fight strong once she got out from under it. He saw himself arrive and when he took the sky he knew that he carried the entirety of it and let go, nearly crushing himself but he held strong and held it all for his love to fight. He watched as his love lost her best friend but knew that he would do something about it. He saw each and everyone of the moments that Artemis and himself had, the love that he so wanted to show and the emotions he saw her hold back, it was then that he grew hope for them. He knew that they could be together soon.
He even saw the scenes after his death, how his father broke down and all cried. He saw how Artemis' eyes broke, all hope and happiness left, tears flowed as she lost him. He watched as everything went quite, how everyone listened to Zeus honored him and how no sound was heard for minutes after he finished, the world had stopped even for that slightest moment.
Percy watched his funeral, paying attention to the tears that Artemis shed bringing his own tears and wishing he could brush them off her face and make her happy again. He saw his mother and Paul crying and she was holding her stomach, just barely showing. He was going to have a younger sibling but his mother has just lost her only son. He saw so many sad faces, his father, all of his friends even the gods were solemn.
But it all faded away as Percy opened his eyes, finding himself in the forest again just as he left it but this time he was alone.
He stood and prepared himself for those that he had to see. Those that he left behind.

Musings of a Hypocrite
Mortals are weird. They insisted in unity, as well as individualism. More often than not, they're shocked at truth and honesty, but not at falsehood and deceit. They asked questions with multiple answers, and provided answers that begged other questions. They made things to break, they destroyed things to study, they researched things to recreate. Humans, Elves, Beastmen. All of them. Within these contradictions, a miracle might manifest. But this tended to work with a trial and error methodology. Most mortals never got the happy ending. This diary is my journey alongside a few students of mine. In simple terms - they learn, they grow, they fight. They'll journey through centuries of conflict, from the physical to the educational. They'll experience the cruelty and benelovence of all living-kind. They'll experience the consequences of their choices and the blessings of their rewards. They will grow to become useful to me, or die trying like all the others. As for you? The god reading our lives like a book, sitting in your chair without a care in the world? I will show you, the farce that is known as 'God'.
