Im sorry if this comes up twice, I can't fix it. I don't know how this happened. Sorry
~~~~4 months earlier~~~~~
Percy ran and ran and ran, until he could no longer run. He sat down at a bottom of the tree, panting, before rummaging through his bag until he found a tent the hunters gave him long ago. He also got something else and made the tent a dull green rather than a glowing silver. Percy was just about to go inside, when Hestia and Hades came along.
"Came to give me a death sentence?" Percy asked with bitterness.
"No actually, we both know that that David person is bullsh** and he did the crimes not you, so we came to give you our blessing." Hades said
They stepped forward and gave him their blessing.
If you looked close enough, you could see flecks of orange and black in his sea green eyes.
"Thank you Lady Hestia and Lord Hades."
"Please, just call us Hestia and Hades." Hestia told him.
"So what can I do?" Percy asked
"Well from me you can summon food, sense people's emotions, fire travel and can summon and control fire." Hestia said
"You can shadow travel, sense when some one has died or is close to dying and can sense hidden souls."
"That's so cool!" Said Percy, "but what am I going to do, I can't stay on earth, the Gods will find me!"
Hestia and Hades exchange looks, "we know of a place... But first you need to master your powers first, and we'll help you do that."
~~~~two weeks later~~~
"I am proud of you Percy, I wish you were my own son but Poseidon hasn't disowned you yet..." Hestia said.
"Ummm, I kind of maybe made him forget that he can disown you so you still have the power of the sea..." Hades said nervously.
"It's ok, but where are we going?" Percy asked. He had packed everything (which wasn't much) into a small backpack.
"We all know you can't stay here because if someone finds you, they will kill you. So we found a train station that's comes every 3 years, it can take you to any planet. We are going to take you to planet 143, a planet with lot of tourists where you can make some money. To start you off I'll give you 753 drachmas" Heatia explained
"And I'll give you 754 drachmas." Hades said smugly.
"Thanks guys, but you can keep the drach-"
"NO!" Hades and Hestia shouted.
"Okay, okay..." Percy began "so um... How do we get there?"
"Well we will teleport and you will fire or shadow travel, take your pick." Hades said.
"Um... I think I'll fire travel, I still need to practice that..." Percy said
With that, a disgruntled Hades and a happy Hestia teleported.
Percy created some flames and controlled it so it wouldn't burn the forest, thought of the place he needed to go to and stepped in the centre of the flames.
He opened his eyes he stood inbetween Hestia and Hades, "congratulations, you finally mastered fire traveling." Hestia said.
"Unfortunately, we cannot go with you because that will raise some eyebrows on Olympus." Then a thought struck Percy.
"Um.. does everyone in the universe know about me?" Percy asked.
Hades and Hestia shifted uncomfortably, "maybe.." Hades said. "But please don't get mad at us, we thought they deserve to know who saved earth.." Percy glared at them.
'man that kid can do death glares' Hades thought as Percy glared at them some more.
" Well since I can't change what's been done, can I at least have something to hide my identity?" Percy asked
"Of course!" Hades said he held out his hand and a simple black cloack appeared. Percy tried it on. The hood covered his eyes and nose so only his mouth could be seen, the hem was a centimetre above the ground, I seemed to fit him perfectly.
"It is enchanted so you can see through the hood and only you can pull your hood off. Also the cloak will fit to the size of you, so you can never grow out of it." Hades explained.
"Thank you." Percy said, then hugged them. Which got some odd looks from other people.
"You better go Percy, and what will you call yourself? If you want to keep you identity a secret, you can't go around saying your name is Percy." Hestia said.
After much thought Percy said "cortex"
"Well I hope to see you again..... Cortex" Hades said.
Percy gave them one last hug before he turn on his heel and walked up to the house with stars and galaxies and planets on them. He knew that was the place because of the way it looks and the fact it radiated a very strong aura of magic.
