Percy's POV
I had been devoid of any emotion. I had been completely cold. The only person who can warm me up are the other Seasons, Anchor and Chaos himself.
I learned how to shut people out and control my emotions. Looking at the mirror, my face held no signs of emotions.
I had to admit that I always had a soft spot for the other three Seasons. It reminded me of my friends in Camp Half-Blood. Autumn was like Nico, a quiet boy who looked lonely like the streets during Autumn and Spring like Jason, the boy who was relaxed and confident that everything will be alright like a new spring day.
Summer was like Leo, the bright and cheerful person who made everyone smile and laugh on a warm summer day. Anchor was like Chiron, being supportive of every decision that I made without hesitation if the decision was logical for all of us and would always give me suggestions on my decision if he felt like he needed to improve my plans. Chaos had become a father figure to me, guiding me in every decision.
Chaos had requested to meet in his palace. He had something to tell us.
"I need your help." Chaos reluctantly pleaded.
The Seasons and Anchor were intrigued. Chaos rarely intervened in their affairs much less ask help from them.
"My brother, Order is rising along with his minions. I cannot interfere directly because of my vow that is why I ask you to help them." He looked at the Seasons and Anchor seriously.
"I know all of you have had your dark past. It is happening in Earth. Please help them and save the innocent people." Chaos pleaded.
As Chaos finished explaining the situation, chaos (sorry for the pun) exploded.
I was shaking from anger and hate. Not again. I didn't want to go back. The whole room was turning to ice and the ground was shaking. I will NEVER go back. Too much pain and suffering awaited me there. In a corner of my eyes, I saw Anchor seething with rage.
"Chaos, how DARE you ask Percy to go back and help the campers after all they had done to him! Don't you know how Percy and the others feel after that betrayal?! It was like that time you forced me back to my hometown after the people last treated me like trash!!!" Anchor yelled at Chaos in anger and the others except me step back in horror as they never seen Anchor this angry before. I was silently looking at Anchor with my jaw drop. I had never seen Anchor this angry.
"Anchor....." Chaos pleaded with his baby seal eyes and Anchor sighed.
"Fine. But you owe me one Chaos." Anchor replied in a voice that is rock hard rather than steel.
Anchor and Chaos rushed to me, trying to calm me down. Even if I was the last Season, I was the strongest. Chaos couldn't risk the whole place going down.
He whispered "Percy, if you can't do it for them, do it for me. Your friends need your help more than ever before." Chaos put his hand on my back to comfort me.
The other Seasons were surprised. Me, who barely had any emotion was on my knees shaking.
After a few minutes, they managed to make me calm down and convinced me to do it with a few conditions.
First, I wouldn't reveal my identity unless I want to and I will keep my past hidden.
"Please reveal your true names and appearances to each other. It's been a few years and you should trust each other by now."
Chaos glanced at the Seasons and Anchor. None of them had qualms about revealing their true identities except me.
They knew they were pushing it already. I was already forced but Chaos had to do it or else our teamwork will be greatly affected.
Spring would go first. He was enveloped with green leaves before we saw his true appearance. Brown hair rested against his brows and green eyes pierced our gazes.
"My name is Aurelio Romania. A demigod in the 18th century. I am the son of Jupiter, lord of the skies. I was banished after being deemed as an unworthy son." Spring looked down expecting the others to diss at him.
Summer replied with "That's so cool!!" and kept jumping up and down. The teen was excited seeing a demigod from the 18th century. Autumn replied with a small smile along with me.
Next up was Summer. He shone brightly, revealing a curly, brown-haired guy with brown eyes. I squinted and wondered why the person looked familiar.
"Hey. My name is Leo Valdez, the Man, the Myth, and the Legend himself. I am the son of Hephaestus, God of fire and forges." Summer winked and smiled brightly.
I shocked. I didn't expect meeting an old friend. When I was banished, Leo was nowhere to be found. We didn't know if he was alive or not.
Autumn followed next. He glowed purple and the rustle of leaves could be heard. He had black hair, purple eyes and pale skin. It reminded me of Nico. They were an exact replica of each other but Autumn was older and much more muscular.
"Zargeus Ciar Blackwell. Son of Hades. I took part in World War II." He said grimly.
I smirked a little. It would be nice for Nico to have an older brother. I sighed. It was my turn.
I stepped put of my throne and remove my hood. The magic that refrains people from seeing my face was also removed. It was a gift from Chaos.
"My name is Percy Jackson. Son of Poseidon, Lord of the Seas."
I brought my hood back and rearranged the magic again. Leo's jaw dropped. He thought I was in Camp Half Blood. Wondering why I was here, he looked curiously at the former camper. Everyone looks at Anchor wondering who he is and Anchor smiled, amused by the Season's reaction. He took of his hood and change his appearance.
The other Seasons (except Winter) looked at Anchor, stunned at Anchor's true appearance. Anchor smirked at the expressions that the Seasons (except Winter) made and introduced himself.
"Most of you wonder why I am close to Winter and about me and my appearance. I am Tristan, Commander of Chaos Army Omega Sector and the whole Chaos Army, Lord of the Elves, the Seventh King of the Light Realm and the adopted Son of Chaos. The real reason why I am here is because I am on a diplomatic mission sent by my real father, Ryoya, and Chaos to help establish the peace of the elves and humans on Earth as the war between the elves and humans on Earth has torn many loved ones from their family and severed the ties between the humans on Earth and the elves. And as why I am close to Winter, well, I will leave that until I am ready to explain everything." Chaos laughed at Anchor about how naïve Anchor is and Anchor grumbled at Chaos to shut up.
"Anyways, about why I change my appearance, well, I do not want people to see my real appearance as it will cause chaos (sorry for the pun again.) among the humans and the elves." Anchor said and everyone look at him as he changed his appearance to his fake one.
Chaos waved his hand to get everyone's attention." We will be teleported to Olympus tomorrow. It will be your choice to come together or separately." He suggested.
The Seasons and Anchor nodded at each other. Arriving together will give the wrong impression to the Olympians. They were better off arriving separately and with that the meeting ended.
