《A King Can't Rule Alone》Chapter 14:Flashback
Advertisement
*FlashBack*
When the cell door was flung open, and a bucket of water thrown onto his body, did Percty wake up to glare hatefully at the Titan who was his jailer, the only being he had seen in ages, sure he saw images of a life he once had. Sure he was kinda going insane... But Kronos wouldn't let him, he was controlling time.
"Up!" Kronos snarled and yanked his arms, ignoring as Percy cried out in pain.
Golden ichor dripped onto the ground, as the angry king dragged him across the room. Onwards into a big adouritium, the ceiling breaking way, becoming part of the sky, where the elements came into play. A rack of swords was to the left of the entrance,
"Your are being healed, once that, warm up a bit and we fight, you will kneel at my feet when you're tired." Kronos sneered, waved his hand at Percy, who felt all of his bruises
Iapetus and Atlas sat on the benches, doing a few stretches Percy bowed his head, caught himself staring, sizing up his opponents. Kronos with his bruit strength, he commanded time at a blink of an eye, he'd have to be weary. Iapetus was sleek and could shadow travel. And Atlas stood with his hands clasped behind his back.
"Now!" Kronos said, all of them leapt into action, Percy thinking of a sword he wanted to use to fight with, his trusty Riptide came, a shield, and a helm.
Riptide was a gift from Zoe, which was part of the Sea gift Posiedon had given to Hercules, the shield was a gift from Zeus, on his birthday, and the helm was a gift from Nico Diangelo, whom Hades had given to him, but Nico had not wanted and gave to Percy as a gift. He was the Chosen one, the one who was going to bring balance and peace, Percy had not known it, but Kronos had seen the signs. Something big was going to happen and Percy was going to be in the middle of it.

Percy was brought back to reality as a sword nicked his arm, blood began to pool out of it immediately, frowning Percy used his water powers and healed himself, using it to distract the other Titan, he charged at Kronos, swinging his sword, meeting the scythe half way, and he shoved his shield up, only to feel himself slow down and he cried out as the king stabbed him in the stomach.
Gasping percy clawed at the strong hand holding him up, the hard golden eyes stared deeply into his, "You're dead,"
Slipping into the darkness Percy lay in goo until Kronos could find him, or Percy could awaken himself and find a way out of Tartarus...
Percy gasped awake, his eyes meeting the exact shade of gold as the ones in his dreams, he let out a manly shriek, punched the titan with all he had and ran away.
"PERCY!" the titan king roared, his powers simmering under all the rage.
Percy flashed away to the mountains, his heart pounding, running he weaved past trees, only to pause and to hide his aura, he sat near the river, nymphs waved at him and smiled.
Poseidon, who had been tending to the fish, who swam excitedly, he was still the King of the Sea's, the Oceans chose him, and he would remain the king until it said otherwise. The chains only held for so long until Poseidon could regain his freedom, and if his son was on the other side he would have to surrender, only under his terms only. He was a god, he didn't want to spend eternity as a slave!
"What is troubling you son?" He asked walking to shore, kneeling down to hug his sobbing son.
"I don't know why it had to be me," Percy whispered, he held the papers that held a prophecy as old as his grandfather was. It had come to play throughout the years, it still was.

"You can win this, it's only a battle, it doesn't matter who you're up against, all that matters is you win. You have the powers, use them, and when the time is right, you will know what to do..." Poseidon said and kissed Percy's forehead.
"Do you know what he did to me in their?" Percy whispered, sitting on the grass, wiping his cheeks, staring into the sunset. "He tortured me alive, anything you could ever dream of..." Percy rolled his sleeves up, scars that had healed many times sat their. His super healing could only heal so much... "He did uninmangale things to me.. But he showed me kindness, he showed me love, and most of all... I had a vision on what happened to make him who he is... I want to save him, because what happened wasn't his entire fault...That he deserves to have his honour defend, its my hero streak." Percy said.
"You don't need to defend yourself with me Percy, our family is complicated, here Zeus fucks everything that moves and doesn't care what happens, I control myself better and Hades is a jerk. What matters is that this is what you want," Poseidon said and stood up, dusting his shorts he strode off into the direction of the castle.
