Chapter 1: Introductions

It was a week after the Winter Solstice. All was normal on Mount Olympus, well, as normal as things could be on the abode of the gods, 600 floors above the mortal world.

All the gods were in their realms or attending to their daily work, when suddenly a klaxon wail sounded throughout Olympus. It was the intruder alarm for the throne room.

Immediately, Zeus, Apollo, Athena, Demeter, Ares, Hephaestus, Aphrodite and Dionysus, all of whom were on Mount Olympus, flashed into the throne room. A second later, Artemis, Poseidon, Hermes and Hades flashed into the throne room as well.

"Hades!" exclaimed Zeus and Poseidon. "Brother, what are you doing here?" asked Zeus, as the Lord of the Dead's obsidian throne appeared next to Poseidon's.

"You mean you don't know?! I thought you had me flashed here!" said Hades, appearing quite bewildered.

"No I did not. What the Hades is going on here? Where is the intruder?" asked a perturbed Zeus.

"I think I found our 'intruder'… It is this package right here." said Hermes, pointing towards a large package on a table in the middle of the throne room which, in all the excitement over Hades' appearance, had gone unnoticed.

"Hermes, what childish joke is this? We all have business to attend to." said Artemis, scowling in irritation.

"As much as I would like to be the one behind this prank, " began Hermes, his eyes twinkling, "I have no idea how that package got here."

"But then how-" Athena was cut short by a bright flash of light above the table. As the light dimmed, the gods saw a note gently land on the package.

Apollo, being the closest to the table, picked it up and read it out loud.

"The package on the table is a set of books about the future, titled Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Its purpose is to prepare you for future events. Time will come to a standstill on Olympus until the books are finished. None of the gods present at this moment can leave the palace until after the books are completed-and that includes you Dionysus, so don't try to sneak out."

As all the gods turned as one, they saw said god frozen in his tracks trying to make his way out of the throne room.

"Wow, this guy sure knows us well." commented Hermes, chuckling at Dionysus' now red face.

"Some special guests from the future will be joining you in reading these books. No matter what happens in the books, do not harm any of them and do not ask them anything about the future. All will be revealed eventually. Signed-" Apollo stopped, and grinned. "Oh look, it's from the future me! Ha! I rock!" he exclaimed doing a happy dance.

"Oh grow up, Apollo!" exclaimed Artemis, glaring at her brother. "Now where are these guests the note talked about?"

As if on cue, a blinding light filled the room. Gradually, it faded, leaving in its wake a group of what appeared to be confused teenagers in a tangle of limbs on the floor.

"What the Hades just happened?"

"Where are we? Are we on-"

"Olympus! Great! Now what do they want from us?!"

"Ow, Connor, your elbow is in my face!"

"We are never gonna finish the ship at this rate!"

After a few moments of utter chaos and muffled groans, one of the teens stood up with her dagger drawn. She was tall, with blond hair, stormy grey eyes and an air of assertiveness about her.

"Everybody stop talking and stand up!" she yelled above the noise.

The other teens obeyed, getting to their feet and standing before the shell shocked gods.

"Lord Zeus, why are we here? What is it

"Who are you? Introduce yourselves." thundered Zeus.

"Lord Zeus and other gods, we are all demigods. I am Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena-"

"And the Architect of Olympus" interjected a skinny boy with an upturned nose and a mischievous smile on his face.

"Connor!" yelled another girl, a redhead.

"Connor-" "-and Travis" "Stoll, sons of Hermes, at your service." said the boy and another standing next to him, together, grinning at Hermes.

"Chris Rodriguez, also son of Hermes."

Hermes smiled at his three children. "You boys look so grown up!" he exclaimed.

A pale boy wearing dark jeans, a black t-shirt and a black aviator jacket came forward next. "Nico Di Angelo, son of Hades and the Ghost King." he said, bowing.

"N-Nico?" spluttered Hades. "How did you-"

"HADES!" exploded Zeus. "You broke the oath?!"

"Brother, what is this?" asked Poseidon in a much calmer voice.

"Okay, everybody relax," said Annabeth, coming forward. "Lord Zeus, Lord Hades has not broken the oath. Nico was sired 70 years ago."

"But he is so young!"

"Zeus, do you remember Maria?"asked Hades, his eyes filling with pain, "Nico is her son."

"Impossible! I had to kill them!" exclaimed Zeus.

"I saved my children. Maria, however…" Hades trailed off despondently.

"Hades, brother, I'm sorry for what happened that day. I truly am." said Zeus, lowering his head in shame. "Demigods, continue…"

"Grover Underwood, satyr, Lord of The Wild."

"You!" roared Zeus, "It is because of you that my little girl-"

"Is alive today." interrupted Thalia, "Father. Thalia Grace, daughter of Zeus and Lieutenant to Lady Artemis."

"How is this possible?" asked a stunned Zeus.

"Remember what the note said, father? All will be explained." said Athena, in a calm voice.

"Note? What note?" asked another demigod, who looked like a Latino elf. "I'm Leo by the way, Leo Valdez. Son of Hephaestus and Supreme Commander Of The ArgoII!" he continued, grinning.

Zeus quickly explained the purpose of the demigods' presence at Olympus and handed Annabeth the package to open.

"The future? Wow, okay, this is officially super weird!" muttered Connor to his bother.

"I'm Piper Mclean, daughter of Aphrodite." said a beautiful girl with multicoloured eyes, bowing before the gods.

Ah, Piper, thought Aphrodite, smiling proudly at her daughter, she has certainly turned out wonderfully!

"Clarisse La Rue, daughter of Ares and slayer of the drakon."

"The drakon?" asked Ares. When she nodded, he grinned wickedly at her, "That's my girl!"

"Katie Gardner, daughter of Demeter."

"Jason Grace, son of Jupiter, praetor of the Twelfth Legion, Fulminata."

As the last of the demigods stepped forward, the gods' jaws dropped and their forms flickered. What was a Roman demigod doing with Greeks?

As if reading their thoughts, Nico smiled grimly, "The future is messed up... You'll see."

"Well, now that the introductions are done with, let's begin to read shall we? Daughter of Athena, would you like to begin?" said Zeus

"Annabeth?" said Thalia worriedly, gently nudging her best friend. But Annabeth could only stare mutely at the book in her hands, her jaw locked as though she was trying not to cry.

Thalia read the title of the book over her shoulder. "Oh" she gasped softly.

Out loud, she said "I will read first."

Gently prying the book from Annabeth's frozen hands, she read the title out loud

"The first book is Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief"
