Annabeth stepped up and waved her hands. Percy could feel the mist bend to her will as she spoke, "you will not ask any more questions. You will go about your day normally and will forget you ever saw us, understood?"
The taxi driver nodded, "understood." He then turned the taxi around and without another look or comment to them drove away into the night leaving the three kids alone.
"Damn," Percy said watching the vanishing tail lights, "I have got to learn how to do that."
"So what's the plan on getting in?" Clarisse asked turning to the high walls.
"Isn't it obvious?" Percy asked as he walked up to the gate, "we go in."
"And how are we going to go in?" Clarisse asked pointing to the locked gate, "it's locked."
Percy nodded and grabbed the lock with his hand, he then challenged some of his Earthquake powers into the lock, just enough to shatter it and leave the rest of the gate unharmed, "now it''s unlocked."
Clarisse whistled, "I have got to learn how to do that."
Percy opened the gate slightly as the three snuck inside the private complex. They stuck to the shadows and before long found themselves in front of the warehouse they were looking for. Percy went next to the main door and held his hand up stopping the other from moving, "I'm going to try something, wait for me to give the all clear."
Annabeth and Clarisse nodded and Percy closed his eyes and thought out, 'Shadow Spying.'
His mana leaped out of his body and went into the shadows inside the warehouse. And just like that Percy could hear something.
"Are you sure they are going to come?" asked a familiar voice which Percy immediately recognized, 'Luke!'
"Yes, I am sure" said a softer masculine voice, "in fact, they are already here."
Percy's eyes shot up in surprise, he turned to Annabeth and Clarisse, "get down!"
Suddenly the walls of the warehouse bursted apart as a giant 12 foot tall human crashed though. Percy and the other moved just in time to avoid getting crushed by the creature and rolled up to see just what caused all this damage.
The creature was human, but the similarities stopped there. It stood 12 feet tall and naked but strangely it had no genitalia or even nipples. It's mouth was wide and it's teeth were blunt. It looked at Percy and slowly it started to drool over itself as it licked it's mouth.
"Guys get up, now!" Percy said as he took out Riptide and the shield of Ares just as this thing came charging at them. It ran like a chicken throwing it's hand up in the air free while it's legs rushed forward.
The thing then reached for Percy, however the son of Poseidon managed to dodge the slow monster's outstretched hand and managed to cut off few of it's finger with Riptide.
"AHHH!" The monster roared as it fell back on it's behind holding it's hand in pain.
Peryc however wasn't in a very forgiving mood. He jumped up on top of the monster and pushed it down into the ground, "Earthquake Fist!"
"You shouldn't have done that Percy," Luke's voice called out.
Percy turned and standing in front of the broken wall of the warehouse was Luke dressed in a black on black shirt and jeans with a blue jacket zipped up.
"Luke," Percy growled, "what is that thing."
"That Percy is my trap for you," Luke explained, "though judging by the look on Annabeth's face she already know what it is."
Percy turned to Annabeth who was literally shaking in fear, "G-gergosa. It's a Gergosa!"
Percy snapped to the monster as which was slowly getting up and used Observe on it,
Gergosa,
Lv-41
HP:17,300/18,000
MP:0/0
Race— Gergosa
Str-50
Vit-27
Dex-12
Int-0
Wis-0
Luc-0
A monster used during the first titan war as infantry, Gergosas are built to do one thing and one thing only, kill and eat all humans. They cannot feel pain or remorse. They are the perfect killing machines.
Kill to get— 18,000 Exp
Percy started to sweat a little bit, it would be a tough battle fighting it and Luke, maybe it would be best to bring out the gauntlet and get some help.
Percy was about to move when a man dressed in a black suit with a top hat appeared next to Luke. The man was thin, almost unhealthy, his hair was very curly and his teeth were sharp like a sharks. And on top of his head was;
Kishin Argo, Dealer
Lv-53
"See what did I tell you," Argo spoke up, "didn't I tell you they were here?"
Luke nodded, "yeah, you did," Luke then turned to Percy and narrowed his eyes, "you shouldn't have come Percy."
Percy frowned, "I'm guessing this is a trap."
"Yeah it is. I knew you would go to Biggy for information about me, so I used that opportunity to set a trap for you, hopefully now you will learn to stay out of other people's business."
"You are my business Luke!" Percy cried out.
"No, right now that thing is your business," Argo pointed to the Gergosa who was now up and fully healed as steam flowed out of its hand reforming it's cut off fingers. Even it's HP was full;
Gergosa HP: 18,000/18,000
Percy cursed himself for being so dumb as to not realise it was a trap. He moved back to Clarisse and Annabeth who were just a scared but they hide it under their will to fight.
"Do you know anything about this thing?" Percy asked Annabeth, "anything at all?"
"It's neck," Annabeth said after some thought, "the back of it's neck if it's one weakness, or at least that's what the legends say."
Percy nodded and walked forward, "back of the neck, got it." Percy readied the sword just as the Gergosa charged at the three campers. Percy jumped away from the monster and so did Annabeth but Clarrise tripped and fell down. The Gergosa then reached out and grabbed the demigoddess crushing her in his grip.
"AH!" she screamed as a snap broke out indicating a broken rib.
"Clarisse!" Percy shouted as he activated Speed Demon and dashed at the monster's hand cutting it off it's wrist with his blade. Percy went to Clarrisse and helped pry the Gergosa's hand open releasing the girl. "Are you alright?"
Clarisse coughed out blood, "I'll be fine." she then looked behind Percy as her eyes widened in fear, "behind you!"
Percy turned just in time to see the Gergosa's head lung for them both. He moved pushing Clarisse away with one hand just as the monster's mouth closed down on Percy.
CRUNCH
Alirght there we go another one done. Hope you liked the inclussion of a Disney Princess Whahah! I'm sorry if it just seemed a little bizare I did that, I was just really bored so I thought what hell?
Anyway, Question:
Is there a max for any of Percy's skills?: Oh I have been waiting for someone to ask me that since chapter 1, the answer, there isn't. The skills that have a max level, are max level, like Death Touch and his ancient Greek skills. But other things do not have a max level. Seems unfair? Hell yeah it is!
Is the Abyss the same as Tarturus?: No, sure it may have the same nick name and all that, but it's more like an organization who just like having a cool sounding name, that's all.
Pause Abblity?: Yeah I don't think that's a good idea. Don't want to make it seem to easy for Percy to win.
Beta!: Yes okay fine, I have swolloed my pride, though I have none, and got a Beta. He/she should start betaing my works starting from the next chapter, and then edit everything else after that.
Can Hades scence Percy controling his domain: Well not really. In this world there are several elmetal users out there, the only reason Poseidon can scence Percy is because he is his son, and the amount of control Percy has pver the shadows is laughable compared to Hades. Basically Percy doesn't have high enough of level in Shadow control to gain Hades's attention.
Don't like the Abyss card?: So you don't like me using Abyss huh? Well sorry but it's a plot device to make things more intresting. So sorry.
Alright I think that's all of it, anything else? No? Okay then. Bye! See you next week.
Chapter 22
Chapter 22:
Warning! The Gergosa has bitten you!
Percy saw the message but ignored it. He was too busy moving. The second he pushed Clarisse away he realized what was about to happen. He put half his mana into his skin activating his Marble skin skill. His body immediately turned to a grayish white as suddenly his body became harder.
Defense— 1175 x 55 Vit = 64, 625 Defense
The monster bit down on Percy's outstretched right hand breaking into his skin;
CRUNCH!
Damage! 63,000!
Percy's grimaced as blood slowly oozed out of his arm, but luckily it was still attached to his body. The Gergosa's teeth on the other hand were a different matter. Its front few teeth were broken; it had after all tried to bite into an arm made of marble. Percy looked around, Clarisse was looking at him with fear, Annabeth wasn't faring much better.
'I need to take this thing away from both of them,' Percy realized as he pulled his right hand out of the monster's mouth ripping out its broken teeth. Percy then grabbed its face with both hands and screamed, "ID CREATE: EMPTY!"
Suddenly a pulse of energy was released dragging both Percy and the Gergosa to a reddish pocket dimension where they were alone. Percy released the monster and brought both hands back before smashing both into its face with a roar, "Earthquake fists!"
The blows smashed into the monster's face sending it flying back and away from Percy. It landed head over heels and face down on the floor. Percy panted, he had used half his mana and 200 extra in the span of a few seconds, he was allowed to be tired.
But Percy couldn't just stop there; he took out Riptide and jumped on the monster's fallen form. He then plunged his blade into the monster's neck.
"AHH!" The Gergosa's screech was horrible but to Percy it was the sweet sound of victory.
Critical hit!
1000% of 250 Attack = 2,500 Attack!
Percy withdrew his sword and stabbed again, cutting deeper into the monster's neck;
Critical hit!
1000% of 250 Attack = 2,500 Attack!
He didn't stop; again and again he swiped over its neck cutting deeper and deeper until nothing was left but a mush of flesh and bone.
Critical hit!
1000% of 250 Attack = 2,500 Attack!
Critical hit!
1000% of 250 Attack = 2,500 Attack!
Critical hit!
1000% of 250 Attack = 2,500 Attack!
The boxes kept coming but Percy didn't stop until finally the monster started to disappear into a pile of golden dust. Percy fell to his knees, he was tired as hell, but he knew he couldn't stop, not yet anyway.
Percy put away Riptide and got up he looked around and there, beneath all the golden dust were few items Percy considered to be his loot.
Cost— 5,000$/ 100 D
Bottle of Forest essence;
Will allow the drinker a permanent + 5 to all stats in the forest. Will also enhance the user's sense when in the forest.
Percy put the bottle away for later use and put the money inside his inventory. He then put his hand up, "ID Escape!"
The sky then cracked open revealing the night sky of New York. Percy looked and saw Clarisse and Annabeth staring at him in surprise with Luke and that creepy Agro guy looking just the same. Without another word Percy dashed to the two demigoddesses and grabbed them before putting one hand up shouting, "ID Create: Empty!"
The two campers looked on in surprise at the sky as it changed into a reddish hue as all the noise from the city died out leaving them alone.
"Percy, where are we?" Annabeth asked as she looked around, "What is this place?"
"We don't have time for that Annabeth," Percy said as he let go of both the demigoddesses walking away, "we need to move, now."
Clarisse and Annabeth had questions but understood the urgency of the matter and quickly nodded. "Where are we going?" Clarisse asked as they walked away from the warehouse where they were ambushed.
"Back to camp, this mission is a failure," Percy said as suddenly a drop box appeared in front of him;
Are you sure you want to abandon this quest?
Find Luke and his army!
Reward,
40,000Exp
20,000$
Failure,
You will only find Luke next year
YES/NO?
Percy sighed and pressed yes, his friends' lives were more important than a quest. He then began quickened his pace before Annabeth spoke up, "Percy are we really just leaving? We don't even know anything about what Luke or that guy is planning."
"Well that may be true but we are going to need a better way to find out, if they have more of those things....well I don't want to find out if they do."
Clarisse looked down sad, "if only we were stronger."
"Oh don't worry yourself too much my dear, there is probably nothing you could have done either way even if you were stronger," a cold and creepy voice called out. Percy froze. That voice, it belonged to Argo.
Just then the sky started to crack open bringing Percy and the others out of the pocket dimension and into the real world. Percy looked behind them and there standing with a smirk on his face was the skinny sharp toothed man known as Argo.
Ping!
Argo's will has concurred yours! You were forcibly drawn out of your pocket dimension!
Percy's eyes winded after reading that, he didn't even know that was possible! The last time some one's will had conquered his it was freaking Artemis! Who the hell was this guy?! Percy observed him;
Kishin Argo, Dealer
Lv-53
HP:4,000/4,000
MP:2000/2000
Race— Human (Clear sighted)
Str-30
Vit-67
Dex-42
Int-61
Wis-59
Luc-2
The Dealer is a man of mystery and class. He is known as the man who can get you anything, provided you can pay for it. An informant for the Abyss Argo has the knowledge to become an award winning scientist but rather chooses to use his talents in human experiment involving the supernatural. His latest experiments have been focused on clear sighted humans and installing various powers into them.
He wants to kill Percy.
He feels bored.
Percy closed the box and spoke, "I don't know how you did that, but dude, I sure am impressed."
Argo smirked, "well coming from you that is very high praise," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"No, you should be flattered actually," Luke's voice cut in as the demigod stepped into Percy's line of sight, "he doesn't hand out compliments so easily. Even when I showed him my dad's flying shoes the only thing he said was, 'Hey Luke do you think it's a good idea to wear those shoes? They might piss off Zeus.' Didn't even care that I could fucking fly with them on."
Percy frowned, "yeah well sorry I didn't think your stupid shoes were cool asshole. I was too focused on finding out who was trying to start a war by framing me for stealing the Master bolt."
