《Perseus Jackson: A New Order》I'm Omnipresent and we have a new threat
Advertisement
Once the meeting was over, the Primordials all teleported away, leaving me on my throne to test out my new powers as a Primordial. I was able to look into the lives of any mortal, demigod, monster, Titan or god on the Earth. I was quite creeped out by it.
I watched the son of Poseidon who I saved who's name I figured out was Noah Freshet. A lot of the campers were weary around him because he had been saved by me. He seemed to be doing well enough so I switched my attention to my domain. Every now and then, I noticed Ananke or the Fates intervening and changing the course of actions. I started to influence the minds of corrupted people and put in pure thoughts in their minds. Everyone deserved a second chance and because of this belief, millions of humans' lives changed for the better.
The remaining Olympians were doing a good job by making people take care of the earth. Poseidon had started to clean the oceans and punish those who dirtied it. Hermes had reduced the usage of plastic worldwide. Hades and Hestia were protecting forests and wildlife along with Grover, who was ecstatic when he heard that I was alive and was bringing up a change in Earth. Apollo and Hephaestus were working together to reduce pollution in the air and soil.
The humans were listening to the gods without them even knowing it and we're bringing up a change for the better. Despite being slow, the Earth was healing. It was tantalizingly slow but it was still progress. I sat on my throne for approximately a week, keeping an eye on mortals and bring about a balance in the world. Slowly but surely, one day there will be order on the Earth and in time, the entire universe and Void.

I then looked at what progress Artemis had made and surprisingly, she had learnt her lesson. Her first step had been to go to camp half-blood. There, she helped train demigods and treated them all equally. I decided not to be evil and returned her immortality to her. She would realize once she awakens. I also brought back her hunters and placed them in the Artemis cabin along with their mistress.
Holding grudges was not possible for me and even if it was, it's not right. I was the Primordial of balance and order. Once someone pays for their crimes and learns their lesson, they are a clean slate in my book.
I got up from my throne to teleport to my room and almost collapsed from how tired I was. I realised that spending so much time drawing power form my domains drained me.
I sat back down on my throne and watched things progress in the earth. Every now and then, a demigod would pray to a god for help but would receive nothing. I was tempted to help them in every step but I didn't. I knew the consequences of interfering. It would disrupt the balance in the universe and anger the Fates. I wasn't someone who wanted three angry grandmas after me.
Every once in a while, the place a throne was supposed be in, would tremble or flash with lightning. I suspected that it signified when a Primordial was angry or using their powers. I still needed to ask mom about this.
As I was watching a group of demigods go on a quest, Chronos and Ananke flashed in along with their thrones and looked at each other in worry.
"You felt that too?" Chronos asked Ananke.
She nodded, "Something powerful and unpredictable just entered the known part of the Void." They looked at each other in fear.

"What?" I asked them. As I asked the question, I felt something wrong with the balance. It was too much power and it was kept unchecked. They nodded knowingly. It was not hiding itself anymore. Almost as if it wanted to be found.
Tartarus flashed in with his throne, looking worried. "It's very malevolent. So much like the power of Chaos but much more unpredictable," he stated.
A lot other Primordials flashed in. Nyx, Erebus, Aether, Hemera, Pontus, Hydros, Thalasa, Gaia, Ourea, Ouranous and Chaos were present. The thrones of other Primordials like Hypnos and Eros flashed in. I'm guessing that their thrones being there was part of their consciousness so they could listen to what we were going to do about the new power in the Void.
Aether nudged me from his throne. "The thing knows where it's going and is using light to travel. It's not lost like any other foreign thing in the Void."
Chronos leaned in towards us, nodding. "I'm not able to use time to slow it down either," he said, looking very worried. Everything in existence was effected by time.
I wasn't even able to track the being or object, let alone try and stop it.
"I'm not able to transport it here," Chaos said, looking extremely puzzled.
"It's not effected by darkness or shadows," Nyx said.
"I need some help," Ananke said to me and Chronos. "Give me some of your energy." Chronos leaned over and touched her throne. I got up and did the same, willing some of my energy to move into the throne. As I did that, Ananke glowed and as she did, a vision was formed in front of us. It showed us a a being of some sort, surrounded by light, travelling through the Void. It had almost reached the edge of the known universe. We knew it wouldn't get through. You needed permission from a Primordial to enter. Without it, you would fall back into the Void. It was very confusing but I knew it needed permission to enter.
We watched as it neared the border. As expected, it crashed into the protective shield. It then tumbled back into the Void.
"What was that?" Ourea asked, looking at chaos, fear evident in her voice. I was afraid too. It avoided the powers of all the Primordials.
"Whatever it was, it was not one of my creations," Chaos said.
"Then what was it?" Gaia asked.
Chaos shrugged. "The void is filled with many forces. Whatever it was, it wanted to get through into the other side of the Void."
"Should we go out into the unknown parts of the Void and search for it?" Erebus asked.
"No. Absolutely not," Chaos said. "The Void is never ending and whatever that was, it could be anywhere. I will not risk any of you going there. Despite the Void being ours, it is dangerous to venture so deep into it."
We nodded. "I want all of you to stay alert and I want someone to always keep an eye on Void. Tartarus, Erebus and Nyx especially." They nodded and the entire council flashed away.
"We need to tell the others," mother said to me as we appeared on the same spot of the mansion. I nodded and walked off towards the dinning area where everyone would probably be. They needed to know about this. It was both exciting and scary at the same time.

Lost in a Dream
Published Monday, Wednesday, and Friday! If dreaming is a drug, then I'm a junkie. For most people, sleeping is an obstacle. Something to get out of the way, so they can get back to their life. For others, it's an escape to nothing, a blissful break from the wears of life. It's the opposite for me. I live so that I can dream; I work so that I can go home and close my eyes, awakening in the real world. My real world. After all, what is reality if not the place where dreams don't come true? Can you fight a dragon on your way home from work, or conquer a foreign land to save an oppressed people from their malevolent overlords after vacuuming the living room? Can you visit a land where mountains look like freshly baked phyllo dough, or live in a castle bigger than my apartment complex? Tigers instead of taxes. Monsters instead of men with too much power. Reality is just the word we came up with to accept a mundane life. A birthing place for grander ideas we wish could materialize. I choose to live in a world where they do.

World Labyrinth
Meet our hero: an average young man with an average life, who ended up dying while working an average job. However, he's a given a chance to see another world at the final crossroads of his old life. The catch... well... he knows there's one. There always is. But, hey, when you're about to die, you take whatever opportunity's provided to you. This is the young man's story in the new world as he learns he can't afford to be average anymore. AUTHOR'S NOTE: I've decided to put this note up due to some comments and ratings left for this ORIGINAL FICTION complaining its boring. This story starts slow and it takes time for things to pick up. Also the MC doesn't start off as superman or become superman magically in two chapters. He also is AVERAGE... so it takes time to build up his character. Starting chapter 14 or so things pick up, but this isn't a pure hack and slash and skills level up story like most of the FF on this site. Just giving you a warning, so you don't end up disappointed and end up having to post large paragraphs complaining about the story... I also post on average every TWO OR THREE DAYS, so you'll get more to read.
