AN: I wrote this chapter quickly today because I had time and I hadn't posted in a really long time.

This chapter SUCKS! Just a warning.

Chapter 4:

"It's been a long time wise girl."

That simple phrase brought several different reactions to the people who heard it. The gods were relieved, and some like Poseidon, Hermes, Apollo and even Artemis actually had happy faces. All the Greek demigods had tears running down their faces, tears of happiness. The Roman demigods were just confused; they had heard the story of the battle of Manhattan but most of the Greek demigods would break into tears before the end of the story. So they didn't know who was the person standing in front of them.

Annabeth and Luke were still in shock. Luke's expression slowly changed to fear, he knew that to survive the stab wounds that were inflected on Percy you had to be extremely powerful, he was scared of the amount of power Percy held within himself. Annabeth had different ideas. She stood up to her full height, which was much smaller than Percy. Trying not to flinch under the glare Percy was giving her, she began to talk.

"Welcome back seaweed brain," Percy flinched at his old nickname, "How have you been for the last 100yrs?"

Percy just stared back at her with anger in his eyes; Luke knew that if Percy lost control of his powers he would have to flash Annabeth and himself away. But the grey-eyed demigod continued on her rant, "how's your mom?" the ground started to shake slightly, which caused Annabeth to smirk, "Oh! Right! She's dead!"

Percy just exploded, the ground started to shake violently. Sensing danger if he stayed Luke rushed over to Annabeth grabbed her shoulder and flashed away to tell Kronos of Percy's return. Had they stayed longer they would have seen how much more power he had truly gotten during his banishment.

Zoe had watched the fight with slight panic, if Percy lost control he could destroy the planet easily. When Annabeth brought up Percy's parents she knew something bad was going to happen. The ground started to shake violently, she watched as the Olympians stared at Percy as the winds picked up around him and he was engulfed in flames.

"Guys! You try to protect the gods and the demigods while I try to calm him down!" she yelled to the others from her team.

The Olympians couldn't believe the power Percy now possessed. He was now surrounded by flames, suspended 2feet of the ground, the shadows were attracted to him. They saw his team come towards them, all except one of the girls. The team put their palms towards Percy and some sort of energy shot out of their hands and formed a shield in front of everybody. The last girl started to run towards Percy. They saw her take her helm off and start to talk to Percy. Nobody could see her face nor heard what she said. But they did see her pull him down into a deep and passionate kiss.

Percy lost control at the mention of his mother. He barely registered his team put up shields in front of the people around. Suddenly he felt a hand on his arm. He looked down into the eyes of Zoe Nightshade, "Percy, please calm down." He didn't comprehend what she was saying because anger and pain had overtook his body. "Percy, control yourself." When she saw that wasn't working she took his face in her hands and whispered. "If you can't calm down for the others, at least calm down for me." She then pulled him into a deep kiss. She could feel the anger leave his body, and the storm calmed down. She pulled away from the kiss and whispered three words at the same time he did, "I love you."

They both turned back to the Olympians, and both of them were knocked down by a ton of people knocking into them. The hunters had recognized Zoe very quickly. After a lot of hugs and tears from everybody Percy had introduced his team and there had been more hugs and tears. Percy gathered everybody around him and they all flashed to Ogyia, where he had decided to set up base.

That was were he was now one week later. The romans had built a huge base in less than a week. And everybody had started training. Percy was now standing in front of the gods as he said.

"We are ready to fight back. Soon we will bring the war to Kronos!"

AN: ok that chapter was shit, but I just had to post it because it had been a long time and I got a lot of of PMs asking why I wasn't posting. From now on I will try to post more often.
