Third Person

It had been months since the Second Giant War was won but the celebration still hadn't ended. On the last night of the celebration, the gods called all demigods, satyrs, minor gods... everyone in the Greek and Roman worlds to the council room.

When the room was filled with the maximum occupants, the Olympians flashed in. The Gods in all their glory with happy faces on... at least the happiest most had ever seen.

"Welcome," boomed Zeus. "Guest. We are honored to have you all here to witness what is about to take place." The guest were clueless as to why the Gods had asked them here. What had it been so important?

"Bring in the heroes," Hera ordered.

As told Hermes flashed out and within seconds was walking in with the Seven along with the leaders of both Camp half-blood and Camp Jupiter.

Once the heroes reached the center of the room Hermes took his throne again.

"Many of you may be wondering what we have called you all here for." Many nodded their heads as a smile crossed all of the Olympians faces. "We have called you here to witness the giving of gifts we have for our heroes."

All of the heroes had a look of shock on their face. They had been given many gifts for saving the world but were shocked to hear this.

"Jason Grace," Juno called. Jason being the Nobel roman he was bowed his head before his step-mother. "My champion, I am very pleased with your actions and give you a wish." The occupants in the room were shocked but knew Jason would use his wish wisely. "You do not have to use the wish now, but anytime." When Juno finished she smiled a kind and motherly smile to him, then looked at her husband.

"My son." The king of the gods said, "I cannot express how proud I am of you." The room looked at Jupiter curious to see what he would give his son. "I offer you the gift of partial immortality. You will not be restricted by our laws and will not die of age, but like the Hunters," Jupiter looks at the hunters at the feet of Artemis then back at his son. "You can die in battle. Do you accept?"

Jason looked at his father in shock as did the rest of the heroes on the floor. Once he was over his shock he looked over at his love: Piper. Noticing his son's turmoil Zeus stated,

"Do not worry my son. All of the seven are getting this gift." Jason's face turned into an instant smile.

"I accept your gift," Jason stated with pride. Jupiter looked at the rest of the heroes on stage. Without speaking a word the rest of the heroes also accepted.

Jupiter looked at the other Olympians and nodded. All the gods raised their arms and shot beams of light towards the heroes.

"Welcome to immortality Heroes of Olympus." The King of the Gods proudly stated. All around the room the guest were smiling and in awe of the heroes.

"That is not the only gift we wish to give you all." The Heroes looked confused. "Jason, I give you all of your Demigod powers making you my strongest child." Jupiter sent another beam of light towards his son. When the light died down Jason now looked more like his father than he did before. Now he looked like a god.

The rest of the gods also gave their children on the floor these gifts, but there was another surprise that was in store for one of the heroes.

The demigods went to sit with the rest of their friends when one was stopped.

"Perseus Jackson. Stay." Zeus stated. Percy turned to look at his friends who had the look of wanting to stay but nodded telling them to go. He turned back to the Council and bowed. "You have done many great deeds for Olympus and for that we offer you our gratitude." Percy was shocked to hear that his Uncle thanked him.

"But there is a gift I would like to give you." The Guest in the room along with the heroes all learned in waiting to hear what Percy was getting. "I give you permission to go into my domain at any time," Zeus said with a smile.

"I would also like to give you this gift," Hades stated from the shadows. This shocked everyone in the room. No demigod of the Big Three had ever been given this gift by one of them let alone two.

"I accept, Uncles," Percy stated with a smile.

"Percy," Poseidon started. "This is a gift that none of my other demigod children have ever been offered but..." He trailed off slightly scared for his answer. "Will you be the heir of Atlantis?"

It was now the gods turn to have shocked faces. No one expected that.

"Brother." A voice said that Percy knew right away.

"Triton," Percy said with his hand gripping Riptide in his pocket.

"I may not like you that much or at all..." Triton trailed off, "But you deserve this." He said redundantly.

Percy turned towards his father and said the two words that made Poseidon the happiest God of all time.

"I accept."

After the ceremony of gifts was over with the Greek and Roman Worlds had one last celebration for the end of the war.
