A/N: Hey guys! If you didn't know it, this is the rewrite of my previous book known as by the same name. It will be a little similar to that one but there might be less characters I am bringing in and sorry in advance for any grammatical errors! Hope you will like this version too!
It was a normal day on Olympus, a few decades before the rise of the Roman Empire. The annual winter solstice meeting was going on and for once there was peace in the room. Hera was not shouting at Zeus; Apollo and Hermes were planning a prank (That no one has noticed yet, so it was peaceful), Artemis was chatting with her hunters while Aphrodite was flirting with Ares, much to his annoyance; Poseidon and Athena were glaring at each other without having an argument.
Hades was having a nice conversation with Hestia, who was also tending the hearth while Demeter was eating some fruits. As usual Dionysus, who was dozing off and Hephaestus, who was tinkering something silently. So yeah, it was pretty peaceful.
There was a sudden flash of light a book along with a note Dionysus, all of their drawing their attention. Athena took the note and it read:
"To the gods of Olympus,
Please summon Hercules, Perseus, Orion, Theseus, to Olympus and tell Apollo to be ready to cure Hercules soon. Further instructions will be given later. This book reading session is so that you will tend to change yourselves at least in the future. Oh! And you will also get some knowledge about the future so might pass out a bit.
The Fates"
The gods looked around quizzically and shrugged. Zeus summoned the requested heroes and waited when suddenly there was a bright flash and out tumbled a group of teenagers while the ones from the past passed out for a second before getting up again.
"Get off me repair boy" shouted a girl.
"This is too big for a dogpile. Not cool guys..." exclaimed a boy.
"Sparky! Stop shocking me!" cried out someone.
"Boys..." muttered another girl.
"You are going to be the death of me" somebody mumbled.
"As much as you all love me... Can you all please stop crushing me" stammered a voice.
"Can you please shut up and get up or should I..." started a girl and everyone moved quickly, not wanting to offend her.
And all this while, the occupants of the throne room watched the scene either amused, indifferent or trying to control their laughter (you can guess who is in which category).
When they all finally untangled themselves, they were as they looked around.
"Where are we?"
"Why are we here?"
"Cool! We are in Olympus now!"
"My lady...why did you summon us?"
"None of us summoned you...who are you?" the gods said/asked quizzically.
"You do not recognize us"
"Of course they don't, see how Olympus is looking"
Suddenly, a note fell on Athena's lap and all of them looked at her.
"Will you please read the note?" a boy with blonde hair asked.
"To the people present in the throne room
We send this note as we are about to bring a few demigods from the future to read about the greatest demigod in the future. Please introduce yourselves without mentioning your godly parent and the gods will have to guess their children while reading. The heroes of the past must introduce themselves with their godly parent. And the gods I believe will remember the warning. Do not hurt these demigods or you will face severe punishment.
The Fates"
The gods again looked at each other and gestured the old heroes to introduce themselves.
"Theseus, son of Poseidon" Theseus said, earning a smile from the futures, who were also giving a glance to Percy.
"Orion, son of Poseidon" he said, receiving a pitied glance from all of them.
"Perseus, son of Zeus" he introduced himself as the futures smiled at him and then looked at Percy.
"Hercules, son of Zeus" he boasted, expecting the demigods to fan over him but unfortunately, all of them were seething with anger and within minutes, he was beaten black and blue.
"This is for being a complete jerk" said most of the demigods while one whispered, "This is for Zoë" and slashed him with Riptide as the receiving person looked at him with shock along with Artemis and her hunters.
"Guess that this was what the fates had warned us about" said Apollo, closing his ears at the colourful words the demigods were using.
"I guess it's our turn now... I'm Rachel Elizabeth Dare, mortal" she said as the gods were confused. The only explanation they received? "We will tell you later."
"Leo Valdez, demigod"(Love him too much to omit him. Don't worry, I will bring in the rest of the 7 later on)
"Perseus 'Percy' Jackson, demigod"
All of them turned towards Perseus and then towards Percy. "Stop staring!" shouted Percy. "It's creepy"
"Nico di Angelo, demigod"
"Thalia Grace, demigod"
"Jason Grace, demigod"
"Jason? As in my brother Jason? I thought you were dead!" Thalia exclaimed as she rushed to hug him while Jason just stood there, confused as he thought Thalia already had gotten over this.
"Thalia has a brother?" Nico whispered to Percy while the other just shrugged, feeling confused himself.
"Wait a second... Which time are you from?" Jason asked, a little doubtful. "Um... a little after that whole Great Prophecy about you know who?" Percy said. "Then we are from your future" Jason said, understanding what happened.
"Hazel Lévesque, demigod"
"Now that everyone have been introduced, shall we start reading?"
A/N: Hi there readers! As promised, I have started the rewrite of this book and I know I said it would only be the big 3 children but I couldn't resist adding Rachel and Leo just because you know...
Anyways, hope you all liked this chapter and all comments and criticism are accepted. The update schedule will be random, most probably once a month as I also have other books, which you are welcome to check out.
Thank you all for reading!
