《Hero Of Olympus》I have a nose bleed and another minor problem
Advertisement
I woke up on some beach. Everything felt and looked different, I just couldn't place what it was but it just felt different.
"Welcome to Australia," someone said behind.
I turned around to find the five Primordials infront of me.
"I can't believe you fainted," Pontus muttered.
I gave him my fiercest wolf glare but he simply brushed it off.
"Why am I here? Why are you here? Why Australia? Can I please go home?" I asked all in one breath.
"Shush," Chaos said, putting a finger on her lips.
I promptly shut my mouth. It seemed they were waiting for something to happen so I continued to wait along with them but my patience was wearing out quick.
"Has whatever you're looking forward to happened yet? I'm getting bored."
"He's slow," Pontus muttered, looking out towards the horizon.
I felt something leaking down my nose and proceeded to wipe it.
All of a sudden something in the atmosphere changed. Everything felt dense, it was as if the air weighed a few tons extra. As quickly as it happened, the density lifted off and the air seemed to bend and a new person faced us. He had short cropped raven black hair that was styled. He had bright blue eyes and wore a fancy formal outfit that wasn't meant to be worn to a beach.
The god grinned at the three Primordials and proceeded to fist bumb all five of them. There was a small boom when he fist bumped Nyx and his knuckles were bruised. The god's eyes finally landed on me and he raised an eyebrow.
"Hydros, Primordial of water," he said reaching out with his fist. I proceeded to answer him and fist bumped him lightly.
"So mum, we getting the old gang back together?" Hydros questioned, looking at Chaos.
"Yes, you know who's next."
Pontus dissolved into sea mist and dissapeared. Black lightning ripped the sky and Tartarus vanished. Erebus began to fade into shadows and soon disappeared as well. Everything went black for a second and Nyx was missing as well. Hydros then winked at me and dissapeared again, causing a sudden change in the humidity which soon left.
Chaos then glanced at me and everything folded until I was standing outside a Rolex watch store.
The other five Primordials were there as well and proceeded to walk in when we arrived.
The mortals stared at us. I'm not sure what they saw. The Primordials seemed to have their own gravity and their eyes shown with power. Even to a mortal they probably looked like gods. All the mortals proceeded to walk out, their eyes clouded.
However, there was still one employee sitting on a chair, looking at us suspiciously. My eyes landed on the woman and I gasped. It was Kelli the empousa. She gave me a flirtatious smile but looked warily at my companions. Like honestly, can't she remain dead for the rest of my lifetime? Tartarus walked ahead of us and as he approached her, she crumbled into golden dust.

Dang this guy could just turn them into dust with a thought?
Chaos walked over to a display cabinet with a lot of watches in it. I could only imagin how much each watch costed. She proceeded to wave her hand and the time started to change on all watches until each watch showed a different time. The minute and hour hands were facing opposite directions in all cases and I also noticed that when one followed the patern made by the watches one could see the Greek letter chi(χ). That was cool.
I tasted a coppery taste in my mouth. I wiped my nose and found blood on my hand. I just wiped it on my jeans and watched as the entire cabinet glowed bright. When the light cleared, we found a door with the word χρονος(Chronos) written in gold. Chaos opened the door and entered, followed by the others and finally me.
At first the Primordial of time didn't notice us enter, he was busy talking to a woman, who seemed to be trying to alert him that we had entered. Chronous had his back turned towards us so we couldn't see him. The woman had dark purple hair which went down till her waist. She had purple eyes, but her pupils were glowing white.
Hydros cleared his throat, making Chronos turn around and look at us. His face broke out into a grin on seeing the Primordials. Chronos had bright white eyes, with golden specks in them. His face looked similar to Hydros, Erebus and Tartarus.
All of sudden I tasted a lot of blood in my mouth and I felt some of it reaching my chin.
I wiped it but it continued to pour. The woman and Chronos' eyes landed on me and widened simultaneously, causing the others to turn towards me. If not for my ADHD, I probably wouldn't have been able to notice all this happened while I cursed, trying to stop the bleeding. Pontus grabbed me and I felt my body dissolve into water and reappear back in his home somewhere in the ocean.
The bleeding immediately stopped and I felt much calmer and less tired.
"WHAT IN THE NAME OF-"
"Your body couldn't take it," Pontus answered for me. "Imagine the energy being in the presence of eight out of the thirteen Primordial beings in existence."
I grimaced and nodded.
"It's a wonder you didn't crumble into ashes in the presence of my mother," Pontus said amazed.
All of a sudden we reappeared back in the watch store, where the others were leaving the secret room. Chronos and I'm guessing his wife Ananke nodded towards me and gave me a small smile. I was amazed by how kind and humble the Primordials were compared to the gods of Olympus. True, Nyx and Tartarus were a bit proud of themselves but nothing more than the drama queen of Greece.

"What are you doing in London?" Hydros asked Chronos. "I assumed you were somewhere in Greece."
"I just wander around different time zones," Chronos replied. "Yesterday I was in Zurich, before that it was Melbourne, today it's London."
"It was going to be New York tomorrow," Ananke said to Hydros.
"Last stop, Gisborne," Chaos said before each Primordial teleported in their own way. Chronos simply disappeared with a tick of the seconds hand of a clock, while Ananke vanished with a flash of purple.
We were on a beach once again. It seemed close to sunrise as the horizon was hazy. Hydros handed me something to drink. "It's MountainDew," he explained, to which I shrugged and downed the entire glass. It tasted extremely sweet and gave me an instant burst of energy. A few rays of light landed on us and with a bright flash another Primordial was standing before us.
"Where's Hemera?" Nyx questioned.
The new primordial smirked
"She's a bit slow mother." He had blonde hair, which was cut short similar to Hydros. His eyes were bright white, which made it look as if there were bright lightbulbs inside his eyes sockets.
"What was that Aether?" A female voice questioned.
Aether grinned sheepishly at the woman infront of him. She had long honey blonde hair which went a little bellow her shoulders. Her eyes were a warm orange and reminded me of the happy times I used to have with my mother in Montauk when I was a kid. They were Aether and Hemera, the Primordials of light and day. The two gave everyone including me a big hug. I'm pretty sure I was going to melt after being hugged by two Primordials.
A flash of pink revealed another Primordial. I knew this one, it was Eros. How did I know him you may ask? Let's just say he keeps asking Annabeth and I to kiss everytime we visit Olympus. Thinking about her made me angry so I decided to drop it at that. Eros looked like a male version of Aphrodite. His hair changed colour and styles every few minute and so did his eyes. Even his clothes seemed to be shifting colour and style.
"Good to have the gang back together," Tartarus said, grinning.
"As we know, Gaia and Ouranos are missing in action," Chaso said. "Now, Percy, for the reason why you're here. You're unpredictable, even in terms of being a child of the big three. I don't know when the gods will stop having demigods, probably never, but a lot of what you've been through was never meant to happen. You weren't supposed make your requests to the gods when you were given rewards after the Titan war. You were supposed to accept immortality. The entire prophecy of the seven happened because the Oracle was confused by your presence since you weren't a god. You weren't supposed to be struck by the jem from Pontus' throne. You have caused something greater than the great stirring."
A small smile tugged at the side of my lips when she said great stirring, which reminded me of the time when I called it the great stirring pot, but I kept a serious face.
"The last time all of us were together was back when we were the only living beings in existence," she explained.
"What happens now then?"
"Fortunately or unfortunately, you die," Tartarus said.
"Don't worry though, I've thought it through," Chaos explained.
"Uh sorry, what? Don't I get a say in this?"
"No you don't," Chaos responded. "Just be thankful I'm not erasing you from existence."
"You can do that?"
Chaos gave me the 'duh' face.
"We'll just let Pontus do his thing, you know, world domination and then ship you off to some other place where hopefully you're not as unpredictable as you are now."
I didn't know if it was some sort of cruel joke shipping me.
"Now for your death," Tartarus said, grinning wide.
"No wait I thought I get to fake his death," Nyx argued.
I wasn't even given the option to say any last words since Tartarus slipped a note in my jeans pocket and grabbed my neck and threw me in the air.
It was a pretty fun flight. It lasted close to five minutes, with no in-flight entertainment, no food or drinks and no safety briefing, not like I needed one. I don't think even Zeus would be able to stop me from plummeting towards Gaia at this rate. I could literally feel the blood on the side of my face as the air was cutting across my skin.
I was plummeting towards long island, to be precise, camp half-blood. I had just been flung from one side of the planet to the other.
The last thing I remembered before kissing the Earth was creating quite a big crater before I felt weightless and saw nothing.

An Infinite Recursion of Time
I always wanted to be taken to another world, and as they say, there are no atheists in the foxhole that we call real life. I prayed, and prayed, and prayed until one day, I opened my eyes to see my dream had come true. I also saw the axe of an orc bearing down on my skull. You win some, you lose some. A time-loop fantasy story written after getting into litRPGs a bit. I wondered what it would be like if I just went and wrote a story about all the things I liked in web fiction without holding back: time loops, RPG stats, certain character archetypes, and harems played straight. Please be warned of lewd descriptions and depraved sexualization. If nothing else, this will be a sincere work.

8 158Sinner's & Redeemers
This is a story about Multiple people within a broken city. Seeing a Dead person with their organs harvested in the alleyways or streets is a common occurrence. This is all normal in people’s lives. Most live boring lives sitting on a chair in an office all day. But, some people endanger their lives by working as a “Redeemer.” These “Redeemers” are similar to mercenary's in a way. They are willing to do anything as long as the pay is good. Most “Redeemers” also inhabit special powers. No one knows where the powers come from. Some say they were gained, born with, or earned. Either way, It doesn't matter. What matters is the job at hand that gets finished.

Going be slow paced uploads. No promise of completion. Typing to improve. *** Description - Story is going follow MC, Will. He's going to go exploring the new world after the cataclysm. Going to have some science, but is mostly going to focus on fantasy. Magic, monsters, etc. Setting - Two worlds smack each other, destroying Earth in the 22 century. All known settlements are in districts and are the verge of a breakthrough in genetics to improve humans beyond their limits. Technology doesn't work outside of the eletromagnetic fields, and magic is a toxin. Plot - Anything I can think of on the spot. I type as I think, which is what I'm the best at. No outlines nothing like that, but maybe a character/place worksheet to use as a reference. *** Email me for any sugggested revisions, most likely to be seen btw. -PS I'm a junior in college working towards a duel degree.
