Epilogue
Percy and Thalia were still going strong.
Thalia was very much at home in her new position as Goddess of the Hunt. She now had a little bit of silver in her electric blue eyes, that would glow or become more silver as she would use her powers. She was either feared or respected amongst the world of Greek gods and monsters, and only loved by her friends, especially Percy. Thalia enjoyed hanging out with her brother and advising him in his decisions regarding Olympus. She loved to spend time sparring with Reyna since she was one of the few people that could match her in combat skills.
Thalia abolished the rule of no romance for the elite Thalia's Hand; those who were offered a spot in the elite team were offered based upon skill and merit alone. Thalia would go down to Camp Half-Blood and help train them or save them from time to time, but she gave her lieutenant a strong amount of autonomy regarding leading Thalia's Hand.
Percy's transition from intern to heir to the God of the Seas was fairly seamless. He had complete control and dominion over the seas, the earth, shapeshifting, the tides, Poseidon's animals, life creation, energy manipulation, and his godly strength and speed only continued to grow.
Triton tried to rise up against Percy few times, but Percy stopped him without even having to leave Olympus. One time, he had ridden into Atlantis on top of Cetus, an ancient sea monster. Before he could enter the borders, Percy had teleported there and stood between his half-brother and the city. Percy knew that Triton and the monster didn't stand a choice against him, but he had needed to talk to his half-brother.
Triton had on his regular pearl-studded armor and his long black hair was tied up in a ponytail. He was holding a golden trident, a smaller replica of their father's. His green skin and green eyes had glowed in the depths of the sea. Percy was sure that his eyes was doing the same.
"Triton, don't do this. You don't want to."
Triton had sneered. "But I want to, Perseus. The throne was mine! MINE, I tell you. And you stole it from me. You can't do that!"
He beat his chest with his fist. "I EARNED THAT THRONE!"
Percy made Riptide disappear and leaned against the golden gates casually as an attempt to de-escalate the situation.
"Then take it, Triton. I never wanted to take the throne from you. When did I ever say that I wanted to do that?"
Triton raised his trident with an expression of fury, but stopped once Percy's words registered. "Wait…what did you say? Poseidon…he was on the throne and he ruled his underwater kingdom."
Percy remembered the arrogance that Triton had showed him years ago, but he also remembered Triton's respect for Tyson and his enthusiasm for their father's kingdom. He mentally told the sea monster to put Triton down, and it did. It then swam the other way at Percy's subsequent command. He walked up to Triton, who still seemed tense like Percy was trying to trick him. He put his hands up to make sure he maintained his non-threatening image. He tried for a smile.
"Triton, I'm not Poseidon. I have to take care of Thalia, Camp Half-Blood, the underwater creatures, the Pegasi, and all bodies of water on this planet, as well as the affairs of the gods. Conversely, you've trained your whole life for the job. I can be God of the Seas and you can be King of Atlantis, man. It's no problem."
Triton swam closer to him and looked at Percy in the eyes. His eyes were moving back and forth, as if trying to find some hint of deception. Percy matched his gaze and he stuck out his hand.
"I just need you to regularly update me about what is going on down here, so if I need to intervene, I can. No one will know about this…attack attempt, but I just need you to grow up. Atlantis' king needs maturity and intelligence on the throne, and I have no doubt that you have both. I just need you to consistently display both. Is that good for you? Is that a deal?"
Triton had looked at him once more and shook his hand. Percy grinned and nodded. He had teleported back to Olympus, happy that the threat was neutralized. Tyson would've torn Triton apart if any of his attacks had gotten past the gates. The next time Triton had updated him about Atlantis, he had told Percy that he had earned Amphitrite's grudging respect. According to her, not every god would be willing to give up power and rule like that.
He had told the whole story to Thalia while she was shooting target practice with her bow and arrow. She had shaken her head and smiled.
"You're a better person than me, Percy. I don't know how easily I would've given up an entire kingdom."
Percy had smiled and kissed her on the cheek. "Me running Atlantis would be a disaster; honestly, when I saw Triton was so passionate about it, I let him have it. It wasn't a big deal at all."
He and Thalia were living together in an Olympian apartment. Over the past few years, Thalia turned out to be a very…charged individual when it came to…libido. There was never a dull moment with her and over the years, eventually, Thalia became pregnant.
Thalia had gone to the gardens and looked out towards the plants. Percy found her there looking at one of the glowing blue flowers.
She exhaled. "Do we have to raise this child on Olympus? Surrounded by gods and satyrs and centaurs? What if they want to live a normal life?"
Percy exhaled. "I'm glad you said that, because I was thinking the exact same thing. What if we build a house? Right by the ocean?"
Thalia looked to him and smiled. "That would be pretty cool, Aquaman."
They had built a quiet little place by the Pacific Ocean on one of the emptier Hawaiian Islands. They agreed with one another that despite their godly heritage, they wanted to give their children an opportunity for a normal life on Earth.
Percy could have just waved his hand to create the house, but he and Thalia decided to put the house together themselves. They built it, painted it, built the furniture, and had Leo and Calypso come in to install some electronics and some plumbing within the house. It was part of the concept of them keeping themselves humbled. Thalia always pushed him to continue to do human things like walking through doors or doing woodshop work or reading books. She constantly told him that even though he had these fantastic powers, it was important for him to maintain a level of work ethic and humility so he didn't end up like Apollo, conceited and self-centered.
When Thalia gave birth, Will Solace had come to help her deliver it. They had identical twin girls: Kendra and Andromeda. All the Demigods and the Old Gods came to see them, as well as some of Thalia's Hand. Most of the Demigods lived up in Olympus, but when they wanted a break from all of the godly things, they would come down to their house by the sea and just hang out on beach chairs, talking about life.
Thalia and Percy didn't want their children to only know about the life of the gods because they could get very spoiled very quickly. Instead, they wanted their children to learn humility, control, and social skills. As a result, they sent their kids to a small school in one of those villages that had elementary school, middle school, and high school in the same area.
One thing Percy and Thalia never wanted to do was lie to their children. Percy and Thalia were always up front about their godliness, but explained to the children that they wanted them to be of ample age before they could decide which path they wanted to follow. A godly path can be dangerous and taxing. Until they were old enough to make an educated decision, Percy and Thalia had them wear necklaces that dampened their powers. It made their blood turn red, and stopped their eyes from glowing from power, allowing them to live their lives as regular humans.
One day, when the kids were ten, they were getting ready for their first day of fifth grade.
Kendra slung on her backpack. She was the more laid back of the two, taking more after Percy's personality. She loved to smile, play sports, and hang out with friends. Even at ten, she was an extrovert and fed off the social interactions of others. She was involved in the school play and the chess club. She had on a light green shirt matched with light blue jeans. She had stormy green eyes and long black hair that fell all around her.
"Daddy, when are we seeing Grandpa again?"
Percy was making sure that her lunch was packed and he looked up quickly. "Which one?"
"Grandpa P!"
Andromeda ran into the kitchen as well, with a blue shirt and black jeans. She had ocean blue eyes, but was otherwise physically identical to Kendra. Andromeda was fiercer than Kendra was. She was more of an introvert, and would much rather hang out with animals than people. However, she was smiling up at her dad, one of the few people she adored in the world.
"Grandpa P is coming?"
Percy shook his head and rolled his eyes. "Let me ask you, Ken. Where does Grandpa P take you whenever he hangs out with you?"
"To the sea," Kendra said. Andromeda whipped towards her sister in exasperation and Kendra covered her mouth.
"Oops," she said through her covered mouth.
Percy shook his head. Poseidon always wanted to test their abilities when it came to the sea, even though Percy wanted them to focus on school. His father, over the years, would just walk the seas and explore all the waters of the Earth. Though some sea monsters and minor gods still tried to treat him like the sea god, he was quick to point out that Percy now held that title. When Zeus would come to visit, he would check their lightning manipulation powers to see how much they inherited from him. Zeus would travel the world, not so much out of curiosity, but more to avoid Hera, who was trying to hunt him down.
What worried Percy was that his daughters loved testing the extent of their powers, and when they were together, they were unbelievably strong, even with the power suppression charms.
There was one time when the twins were having a nightmare. They had created a sea storm so powerful that Percy himself couldn't calm it immediately he usually could. He had to use a good portion of his godly power to calm the storm, and Thalia had to run into the house and hum them back to a docile sleep.
Thalia came into the kitchen with Andromeda's backpack. She kissed Percy and gave both Kendra and Andromeda small static shocks that caused them to yelp.
"I thought I told you all that you are to focus on your school. Your powers can be harmful to others. If you want to explore your powers, you can do so after you do your homework and on the beach in front of us. But besides that, and I don't care if it's with Grandpa, you are to keep those necklaces on so you all don't hurt anyone. Is that clear?"
Andromeda turned to Thalia. "When are we going to Olympus, Mom? You and Dad talk about it all the time and I want to see Olympus!"
Lightning struck in Thalia's eyes. "Is that clear, An?"
Andromeda glared back, but looked at the ground. "Yes, ma'am."
Thalia bent down and caressed Andromeda's face, gesturing for Kendra to come to her. Kendra ran to her, smiling. Thalia grinned at them. "You two are more powerful than you know. And once you all graduate high school, we will have the conversation of you choosing to follow the path of the gods or the path of humans. But right now, I need you two to focus on getting past the fifth grade. Is that clear, both of you?"
"Yes, ma'am," they both answered.
Percy dried his hands as he finished their lunches. He shook his head in disbelief; Thalia always had a way with their kids.
He handed them their bag lunches; he was glad that his children didn't only have a taste for ambrosia, but actual food from Earth as well. "Race you all to you the car!"
His daughters screamed as they burst out the door, running to the old car that was outside. Thalia gave him a kiss, telling him, "Be careful, Percy. Remember, we have a meeting in the conference room at one today."
Even though they lived in that house by the sea, they would still teleport to Olympus to make important decisions regarding the Camps, monsters that got lose, and how much they can intervene in their half-siblings' affairs. They had gotten rid of the Olympian throne room in favor of a more modern conference room, with chairs that were decorated with paintings and artifacts that were relevant to their area of power.
Though Kendra and Andromeda were raised as humans, if they had finished their homework and chores, Percy and Thalia would take them to the isolated beach and allow them to explore their powers. They would move waves, make the clouds come in, and one time, they even made lightning flash.
Percy and Thalia would also slowly introduce objects from their godly life to them. For their birthday one year, Percy introduced them to one of Blackjack's children Pegasi. They loved it, but they knew that they had to wait until they were older to be fully invested in this life and maybe have a Pegasus of their own.
And so, for years, Percy and Thalia had a peaceful life; living in the house by the sea, raising two beautiful little girls. During the day, they would teleport to Olympus to train, go to meetings, reach out to their half-siblings, destroy large monsters before they could rage the United States, fixing god-level disasters, etc. Percy would watch and bless the demigod heroes while Thalia would watch over the Warriors and Thalia's hand.
Just like Percy and Thalia wanted, their daughters grew up normal. They got good grades, they got bad ones, they got in trouble in school, they got detention. Andromeda got into a few fights, but Kendra would back her up and end up landing both of them in a parent-teacher conference. They had crushes on boys, they even dated a few of them (Percy was the good cop and Thalia was the hard one to impress). They even went to prom. Kendra wore a glittery green dress while Andromeda had worn an elegant black one.
As eighteen-year-olds, the twins had grown into strong young women. Both had grown to 5'11, a perfect balance between Thalia's 5'10 and Percy's 6'0. They both had tanned skin, angular features, and jet black hair that reached their mid-backs. They had Olympian-physique bodies since they both played every sport they possibly could at their small school.
Andromeda had ocean blue eyes that seemed to always swirl with waves. She had gotten more confident over the years, but still tended to be more of a realist compared to Kendra's optimist. She usually wore her long hair up in a ponytail or a bun.
Kendra's eyes were still a stormy green that didn't match her disposition. As she grew, she got more cheerful and happy to be around. However, she had a temper. Though Percy and Thalia were glad it was righteous anger, to others, she was more terrifying to be around than Andromeda when she was angry.
Every individual who stopped by the house has said everything from: "Your daughters are beautiful," to, "Your daughters are drop-dead gorgeous," to, "You might want to hide them." Percy tried to not strangle Apollo for that last statement. Guys would come by the twins' house, come to them at the twins' work (as lifeguards), write them poems, sing them songs, ask them to "model" for them, etc.
Apparently, his daughters were beautiful. Luckily for them, they looked more like their mother than him.
Once Kendra and Andromeda graduated high school, Percy and Thalia had driven them back to the house and surprised them with a huge boat that Percy worked with Leo to build and deck out. They were going to take Kendra and Andromeda on a cruise as their gift.
When they got to the beach house, Kendra and Andromeda had walked onto their beach in their white graduation robes and turned towards him and Thalia. Their necklaces were shining in the sun, and Percy thought about the one conversation they were definitely going to be having with them on the boat.
Kendra's hands went to her mouth when she saw the boat, her eyes shining. "Dad. DAD! Is this really happening?!"
Andromeda was slack-jawed. "Mom, is this ours? Is this for us?"
Thalia smiled and nodded. "Yes. For your graduation, we're going to take you to the sea. We have catered meals, big-screen televisions, queen-sized beds, hot tubs, massages, the whole nine yards. We have everything you all need regarding hygiene and clothes, so you don't have to pack. Just go in!"
Kendra jumped up and down, tears in her eyes. Andromeda turned to her parents.
"Are you all sure that you can afford this?"
The question made Percy's heart tug. Though they could materialize money whenever they wanted, Percy and Thalia made sure that they weren't living in a mansion; they wanted their daughters to grow up being responsible with their money. They wanted them to be humble and appreciate life for everything it has to offer. And from Andromeda's question, it seems like they did their job.
Percy grinned. "Yeah. Call it a favor. Go! Hustle up, your mom and I will be there soon."
Andromeda gave a small smile and kissed both Percy and Thalia on the cheek. She took off her heels and sprinted towards the boat, grabbing Kendra's hand and pulling her along. Kendra got pulled along with a "Woooaaaaahhhh!"
Thalia slung her arm around Percy and kissed him on the cheek. "Well, they actually graduated high school. Not bad, Aquaman. Not bad at all."
He sighed as he watched them run and board the boat. "They remind me so much of you."
Thalia did a double take and leaned away from him in disbelief. "Of me?! I see you in them every single day. They both have your smile, which makes all the guys swoon."
Percy grinned and Thalia continued. "Even in their eyes, which I think is a cool combination of our own."
Percy laughed and nodded. "Stormy green and ocean blue? Yeah, that is cool."
Thalia moved in front of him; she was wearing a plain white shirt with dark wash jeans and sandals. Her physical appearance was now about twenty-eight; they wanted to make sure that they didn't look like teenagers with teenage children. Those PTA conferences would be pretty awkward.
Her electric blue eyes swirled with silver and her hair was pulled up into a ponytail, strengthening the resemblance between her and Andromeda. She radiated with power, but also glowed with peace.
"Which path do you think they'll choose?"
Percy shook his head. "Honestly? The path of the gods."
Thalia nodded as they watched the twins board the boat. "They've been so passionate about it since they learned that we were immortal. They're like the ocean; hard to contain and impossible to control."
Percy sighed and grabbed Thalia's hand. "Well, we never know until we ask. I love you, Wonder Woman."
She reached up and kissed him, then said, "Race you to the boat!"
She took off and Percy ran after her.
Once they had been on the water for a few days, Kendra and Andromeda were called to the deck of the ship by their parents. Percy had on black shirt with bathing suit shorts. His necklace hung down and his petal was glowing half light-blue, and half deep yellow. Thalia wore a swimsuit, but wore a dark blue shirt over it.
Kendra and Andromeda came up from their rooms, looking pretty sleepy. They had both had on purple shirts and gray sweatpants as their sleepwear.
Andromeda rubbed her eyes as Kendra yawned. "Daddy, it's 8:00. What's up?"
Percy grinned as Thalia rolled her eyes. She stood up. "Girls, I want you to take off your necklaces."
Just as he predicted, that woke them up immediately. Kendra excitedly began to do it while Andromeda looked at her mother.
"Are you sure? You told us to never take this off."
Thalia smiled and nodded. "Take off your necklace, An."
Within seconds, they both had their necklaces off. Percy watched in wonder as their eyes began to glow. Power almost visibly coursed through their bodies and both girls yelped.
Kendra smiled. "That is…tingly. Wow. You never had us take off our necklaces even when we were practicing at home."
Thalia nodded. "That's because it's time for you all to choose. We told you that once you graduated high school, we would give you the choice. Percy?"
Percy stood as well. "You all have the blood of the gods. We are offering you two paths; the path of normalcy and the path of the gods. I must tell you, though; the path of normalcy includes you all going to college, getting a job, making friends, dating people, and maybe having a family. You would be mortal, for all intents and purposes, as long as you keep that necklace on. However, if you choose the path of the gods, that includes you all going to Olympus, training with the Immortal Demigods, getting your godly title, and living a life of an immortal forever. We wanted you to have this choice because your mother and I never had that opportunity."
Kendra looked on sadly while Andromeda stared stoically. Percy looked off into the sea, feeling the sea breeze blow through the deck and the sun warm his skin. He felt the Hawaiian water rush beneath him just as he felt his arms on him; he could move them, flex them, wiggle them, and otherwise have complete control over them. His petal glowed completely light blue.
Thalia looked at her children while Percy continued. "Your mother and I were sort of thrust into this world with no say in the matter. And that's not what we wanted with you. Even though there may have been a better way, we wanted you all to at least have a choice. We wanted you to grow up learning how to share, how to save, playing sports, dating people, going to school dances, helping people, getting your first job, etc. Those help you learn valuable lessons and we feel that you've learned them. So, whereas most people may go off to college and on the next step of their career, we are offering you the next step of you all's journey. Which one did you want to choose?"
Kendra and Andromeda looked at one another meaningfully. Andromeda nodded at Kendra, who stepped forward. Her stormy green eyes glowed with power and her skin seemed to radiate with strength.
"Dad, Mom, we want to follow the path of the gods. Not that the normal life wasn't great; it was. We did learn good lessons during our time here. An and I have talked about this a lot. Even though we were focusing on high school, we felt an internal calling to the sea and into the sky. School and jobs seemed so small compared to what we felt was our destiny was. We want nothing more than to explore our powers and honestly, follow in the footsteps of our parents."
Andromeda stepped forward, her eyes glowing with a cool ocean blue. "You all are the best people in the whole world. You two are our role models, and we know that you all have a place in Olympus. And if we could be half of what you two are, we would be happy. But you've been hiding a good part of your life from us in an attempt to protect us, when really, we felt like it should've been our choice regarding our involvement in the life of the gods. We do understand that you wanted us to be old and mature enough to make a decision, but that calling was almost overwhelming at times. It was hard to focus on a Spanish quiz when he had just met a Pegasus the day before or when we saw you and Mom teleport to Olympus in a flash of lightning. I hope you know though, we fully intend on surpassing you and reaching a level you two never could."
Percy's mouth twitched. "You're going to need to earn your godship. Is that something you all are prepared to do?"
Immediately, the twins answered, "Yes."
Percy and Thalia raised their eyebrows and glanced at each other at the same time. Once they did, they smiled and Thalia nodded at him. She took out her book and began to read. The twins were confused for a second until Percy jumped off the edge and into the water.
They watched him swim down and looked at Thalia. Without looking up at her book, she waved her hand towards the water. "Go on. Your father wants to show you something before we take you to Olympus."
Kendra and Andromeda looked at each other and smiled. With an ecstatic yell, they jumped off the edge, plunging into the water. Percy taught them how to breathe and swim underwater, almost as well as Cyrene could.
They then took off into the deep as Percy showed them the wonders and the beauty of the sea.
Thalia and Percy had taken their daughters to Olympus to meet the Immortal Demigods. Once they announced their children's decision to become gods, Reyna immediately stated that they need to go through six years of training before they can become minor goddesses. Kendra and Andromeda accepted just as quickly, ready to become gods.
The first year, the Immortal Demigods put them through knowledge and history building. Chiron would lead it, and would even give them tests on their knowledge of Greco-Roman culture, monsters, heroes, and deities. Though they were restless to fight, after a year, they were well-versed in everything they needed to be.
The second year, to Kendra and Andromeda's relief, they trained heavily in swordsmanship and battle. They would go into this large arena and spar against Reyna; mostly since she was the Demigoddess of War. However, Reyna would occasionally bring in some visitors such as Artemis, Athena, Mars, and even Jason and Thalia. Reyna and Thalia had them use every single weapon known to man, and taught them until they were proficient in all of them. Their preferred weapons were swords, which Percy was happy about. Over this year, he noticed that they were deceptively quick learners.
He had trouble fighting his daughters because he was always deathly afraid that he would hurt them. Thalia had no such qualms; she said that it was like Poseidon play wrestling with his son. Percy wasn't so sure about that, but he digressed. The twins fought against those adversaries and each other, and for the better part of a year, they were getting destroyed by Reyna. However, as the year came to a close, their fighting skills had gotten to the point where they could individually fight Reyna to a standstill.
Percy and Thalia found out as they watched the twins fight; when they were together, their strength grew and they were nearly unstoppable, even in their first year of training. When they were apart, they were still formidable. But together, they could best Reyna and Artemis easily.
The third year, they trained with Thalia, Artemis, Grover, and Frank about how to hunt and how to commune with the moonlight and the animals. They always used Percy as the "beast" they were hunting, and though the Wolf made a valiant effort every time, by the end of the year Percy would exit the hunting ground dripping in arrows. His daughters ended up learning how to move without sound, faster than the eye can follow. They were also able to hunt and capture nearly anything. Artemis had once confided in Percy that they were almost as good at hunting as Orion was. Over this year, though, they would continue to spar and fight, improving their skills in that area.
The fourth year, they trained with Percy, Poseidon, and Triton regarding the sea. Though they were only had a quarter of Poseidon's blood, their power and control was impressive. Percy taught them how to move and control the water in both the seas and out of it. They learned how to make whirlpools and tsunamis from that. Their grandfather taught them how to use their earthshaking abilities to make earthquakes, islands, landslides, and volcanoes. Though their abilities were a little weak, they showed themselves being able to shake the grounds and create islands with a good amount of effort. Underwater, Triton trained them in underwater combat, but not before proposing to both of them to become his immortal wives (with the same line). Luckily they said no, and Percy smacked Triton upside the head. Percy, Poseidon, and Triton sent out a telepathic message to all the sea monsters, who came to meet the new addition to the family of Poseidon.
The fifth year, they trained with Jason, Zeus, and Thalia over their control regarding the skies. What they seemed to take to easily was creating any type of storms and generating lightning. They were also able to create winds, tornadoes, and cyclones. However, anything regarding manipulating air currents or any other applied power was nearly impossible for them.
The sixth year, they trained with Iris who taught them how to tap into the Light. They learned how to manipulate godly energy, reach their Divine Form, and harness that energy in their battles. Once the sixth year was over, they were called back into the Olympus Conference Room (the Demigods had gotten rid of the thrones). In a unanimous decision, they were made Kendra and Andromeda, Twin Goddesses of the Storms (Leo preferred Twin Storm Goddesses).
They began to quickly make a name for themselves as fearsome storm goddesses that nearly always traveled together. They wielded twin golden blades named Ceraun and Kerauno. Those terms, translated to English from Ancient Greek, meant Thunder and Lightning. Word of their differences in personality caused people to try to appeal to Kendra's generous side whenever they were in trouble.
However, though people saw Kendra as the "nice one," she had a temper. Whereas Andromeda was always a bit more abrasive, she was more controlled than Kendra. Kendra, conversely, was mostly cheerful but was exponentially more terrifying than Andromeda when she was angry.
When both Kendra and Andromeda were angry and together, Percy was convinced that no force of Olympus, Earth, or Tartarus could defeat them. It didn't matter if they were fighting against ten Demigods and Old Gods, if they were together, they would be powerful enough to hold their own. However, separately, they were still a little bit above-average regarding the powers of a regular storm goddess.
Now that Percy and Thalia's children were grown up and were storm goddesses, Percy and Thalia began to focus their attention more on Olympus and the godly affairs of the world. Percy was curious what their "conflict" was going to be as a pantheon. The Titans had the Primordial Deities as their "conflict," the Old Gods had the Titans as their "conflict," but Percy wasn't sure what the Immortal Demigods were going to have as their "main conflict."
His question was answered when some of the mortal Greek demigods ran into some of the heroes embroiled in the Norse pantheon of gods. Though they tried to get along with one another, they ended up killing each other. The Norse pantheon of gods, the Aesir and the Vanir, responded with some an attack upon Camp Half-Blood over the summer, which Camp responded with an attack upon their own soil. The Vanir, as the Norse's equivalent to minor gods, unsuccessfully tried to attack Olympus, which resulted in the Demigods telling the Aesir, the Norse's equivalent to the main gods,to come talk to them. To keep thing safe and contained, Frank had gone to meet with Loki in Antarctica to call a truce.
The Demigods were waiting in the conference room, when Nico stood up. His glowing white eyes were moving back and forth as if he was panicking. He had looked at all of them and declared that Frank had died. The Demigods, in spectacular fashion, had teleported to Antarctica to see Frank's body. He had a fiery hole blown into his stomach, and he was lying on the Antarctic snow.
Hazel had screamed in despair and cuddled Frank's head as she rocked him back and forth. Percy felt like both crying and killing someone. Jason had knelt down and touched the hole's luminescent cinders, concluding that it was Loki who had used his pyrokinetic abilities to attack Frank in this isolated meeting spot.
As the Arctic wind blew sharply through the air, Reyna's eyes steeled and she declared war.
The death of Frank was the catalyst of the huge war between the Greco-Roman Demigods and the Aesir. It was this huge battle that took place on multiple fronts.
One of the turning points of the battle was the battle between Kendra and Andromeda vs. Thor. Thalia had forbidden their children to enter the battle for fear of their own safety. However, the Demigods were too busy fighting the rest of the Aesir as the countless minor Greek gods fought the Vanir. The Greek demigods were fighting the Norse ones, and everyone was fighting someone.
Thor had been trudging through the Indian Ocean, ready to walk to America. With the Demigods' attention diverted, he had a clean path straight to Olympus and prepared to destroy it. Kendra and Andromeda had appeared in bolts of lightning, telling him to turn back. Since Thor was the Norse god of thunder, strength, and storms, he wasn't impressed with their powerful storms and he fought them.
However, he underestimated their prowess, and in a fateful moment of the war, Kendra attacked him head on with a sword thrust containing lightning in it. Thor had swung his hammer to block the attack, but like a clap of thunder, Andromeda had silently zoomed across the water and sliced Thor's throat. Faster than sound, Kendra had then spun her sword, charged it with lightning, and decapitated him, stopping the advance of the god of Thunder.
The entire Norse pantheon of gods felt Thor's death and attacked even harder. How the war finally ended was that Percy and Njord, the Norse god of the seas, had secretly met at one of the Hawaiian Islands. Together, they talked their problems out with each other and realized this entire war was due to a misunderstanding. They combined and power to bring all the gods and Demigods who were fighting to the island, and together, they had talked it out in a raw and emotional conversation.
Once the conversation was over, they held funerals for Frank and Thor. In order to prevent this from ever happening again, the Demigods scheduled to have meetings with every pantheon of gods they could, in order to make sure that they could all live in peace.
By Thalia's side and watching his daughters grow in power and wisdom, Percy had pretty high hopes for the future.
