Beta'd by Silver Pride, thank you for the help and doing a great job.
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson or any other elements that may seem familiar.
"This leaves us," Zeus said lowly, "Only the matter of thanking our young demigod heroes, who defended Olympus so well – even if there were a few dents in my throne". He added in a dismissive tone.
Thalia was the first called forward, which seemed fit, since she was his daughter.
"Thalia Grace, as a reward for your outstanding bravery, courage and a great service to Olympus we shall grant you a new weapon of your choice" Boomed Zeus.
"Thank you Father, Lords and Ladies of Olympus, I choose a bow" replied Thalia respectively.
In the next instant Apollo and Artemis crafted a bow out of thin air and presented it to her. The godly bow made every arrow shot from it electric, Artemis slyly added a pair of electric daggers which made even Clarisse's first spear feel like an ant bite in the pain scale.
The bow was ornately carved with images of wolves, trees and lightning covering it's smooth surface. It shone a simply beautiful silver light that could rival that of the full moon. The daggers appeared to be a mixture of celestial bronze and a gold substance that was identified as imperial gold. Lightning seemed to dance along the metallic exterior.
Thalia was so shocked and grateful that she barely managed to stammer through a thank you before blushing a deep red and moving to stand beside Artemis' throne.
"Tyson, son of Poseidon!" Zeus called to a suddenly nervous looking Tyson who slowly made his way forward. Even in his smaller form Tyson was still roughly the same size as the Gods.
"Tyson, for leading the Cyclopes into war we grant you a twenty year long apprenticeship with Hephaestus in the forges and the opportunity of becoming the immortal leader of Cyclopes within Poseidon's domain". The cheering from the Cyclopes army was so great that the recently repaired throne room began to crack.
Once Tyson had gone back to his brethren Dionysus summoned Grover, "Grover Underwood, for the great courage and leadership skills displayed during the battle we name you the Lord of the Wild to fill the recently vacated position".
Grover merely looked at him for a moment before squeaking out a thank you and promptly fainting. Once the naiads managed to move him, Athena called for her daughter.
"Annabeth Chase, for your impressive displays of courage, wit, strength and wisdom we name you the official architect of Olympus". Annabeth looked like her greatest wish had come true, which I guess it had. Determined to keep a level composure, Annabeth replied as steadily as possible."I thank you for your generous gift,"She stated sincerely. "But would it be possible for me to become a Hunter of Artemis before I design the new Olympus?" The Olympians agreed before she too went to join Artemis.
Zeus then thundered "Nico Di Angelo". Looking quite disgruntled that he had to thank a son of Hades. "For your help in convincing my brother to join the fight we offer you the chance to become Hades' immortal lieutenant, therefore meaning you can only die in battle". Nico looked extremely overjoyed that he was getting recognition, if he was any happier I would not be surprised if he grew a tail and it started wagging.
"I accept, my Lord". Nico stated smoothly- a grin plastered on his face- as he bowed before walking over to where Hades had a temporary throne.
"Perseus Jackson, the greatest hero of the age, the savior of the world". Announced Poseidon, staring at me with a kind of fierce pride in his eyes, "We offer you immortality as one of us, a God. But to show us your worthiness of becoming a God you must share with us one idea to improve the world."
"An idea?" I questioned hesitantly, unsure about what they meant.
"Yes, for example it was Dionysus idea to have camp for Half-Bloods because it used to be individual training" rumbles Zeus in reply.
"Biggest regret in my life" slurred Dionysus as he glared at the floor.
I stood there thinking about all the pros and cons of being a god, at the moment it was looking pretty good but there was one thing bothering me, something that I just had to know because it could sway my decision either way.
"If you don't mind me asking, what will I be God of?" I queried,
This time it was Athena who answered. "No one knows until you become one of us. The Fates decide it based on who you are."
After some deep thinking, I reply."Alright, I accept your offer" I said in the most confident voice I can muster. "My idea is to make it a rule that all demigods must be claimed before the age of thirteen and that every single God gets a cabin because this titan war was caused by demigods feeling resentful because they were unclaimed or didn't have a place to call home". I glanced meaningfully at my friend Nico Di Angelo, son of Hades.
All the gods considered this except for Hera who looked outraged that such a person could dare question them and their ways.
Hades spoke bravely "I may not be an Olympian, but I for one believe it is a great idea, one that was needed long before now".
Ares snorted "Of course you would think so, it benefits you!"
"I agree with Lord Hades" interjected Athena, "With it we would surely avoid any similar wars."
"Yes a brilliant idea," Poseidon roared approvingly. "Who here votes in favour of his idea?" Poseidon questions glancing over the gods. Surprisingly eleven hands raised in support, except for Hera who just stared at me as if I had just insulted one of her sacred peacocks, oh wait… I had done that already a few years back.
"Perseus Jackson, we, the Olympian council name you a god and induct you to be the thirteenth Olympian, do you agree to be as such?" Thundered Zeus in his most theatrical voice.
I nodded before realizing I was meant to say something, 'Yes I agree'.
The moment that I replied, all of the Gods began to chant something. I honestly didn't even attempt to listen or understand, I was feeling so overwhelmed and well, Aphrodite looked really hot standing there, so can you really blame me?
I eventually stopped ogling her when I noticed light coming off of every Olympians hand. The light stretched in my direction, reaching for me until they made contact, each one was a different colour representing an Olympian. Once the last one hit me (Artemis' silver one) I felt unbelievable power coursing through my veins before the pain hit me, it was worse than ten baths in the Styx put together. Within ten seconds I blacked out.
