Percy wake up in bed. Strange. He look around to see if anyone is there.
"You're awake, Master Perseus."
He quickly turn around, unconsciously putting his hand in his pocket to grab Riptide. Percy's hand reach in his pocket but he couldn't find his sword. That isn't possible.
The voice come from a tall, brown haired women. She looks like a priestess, with a white chiton adorning her body.
"Who are you?" He asks, furrowing his eyebrows.
"I cannot tell you that, Master Perseus. Please follow me, my master is waiting for you." She gesture towards the door.
He sigh and stand. The lady lead him to what seems like a throne room. Black doors welcome him. Gold, silver and bronze decorates the room. A throne stands in the middle, a man sitting on top of it with a tall guy with short black hair in a coat whose hood is down stand beside him.
Percy scan the room. It make the throne room in Olympus a garbage dump. The tall man with long black hair, with eyes that stare in your soul, and who looks regal sitting on the throne stand up and the guy, who was standing besides the man, move to the side towards Percy; and, stand beside Percy before bowing down to the man. Percy look at the man suspiciously.
"Hello, Percy Jackson." His tone is calm and serious and he look at Percy warmly. " My name is Chaos, Creator Of the Universe."
Percy's eyes widen at the revelation and quickly kneel down. He don't want to be in the Creator's bad side.
"There is no need for formalities. It makes me look old." Percy stand up. Chaos wasn't like any gods he has seen. Those stuck up gods too absorbed in their pride to care about others. Percy stare at the Creator, daydreaming until the Creator break the silence. "Anchor, please stop bowing to me! Remember what I asked you?" The guy with the hood off called Anchor stand up and look at Chaos, trying not to smile.
"Sorry, my lord. I just do not want to be rude."
"Next time just call me Chaos. No need the "Lord" business." Chaos tell Anchor and Anchor bow and nod.
"My lord, could you tell me what is this man doing here?" Anchor points to Percy and realizing he is in the center of attention, Percy blush red and look at the floor.
"Anchor, he is here because I ask the women to bring him here. He is the Hero of Olympus." Chaos replied to Anchor's question and realizing that he is rude, Anchor turn to Percy and apologize and Percy accept it. Chaos cough and Percy and Anchor look at him, shocked.
"Percy, I have an offer to give you." Chaos look at Percy intently, indicating that he is serious. " It will give you a chance to start a new chapter in your life and to forgot your past as Percy Jackson, Hero of Olympus, but to start anew as another person."
Percy think hard. He knew he couldn't resist the offer. He couldn't go back to his friends even if he want to. Percy looks at Anchor and sees Anchor's pleading look and nod.
"I accept.", his tone unwavering. Anchor immediately pull Percy into a bear hug and Percy smile at Anchor, making Anchor blush awkwardly.
Chaos see that and smile at Percy as a beam of white and black hit Percy. He feel the excruciating pain of betrayal from his friends and sadness for leaving his friends behind. Percy feel his alter ego and him merge.
Memories flashes in his mind. The happy memories of him and his friends laughing at casual jokes. Connor and Travis pranking the other cabins while he either helped them or pretended not to know anything. Casual dates with Annabeth near the lake and the small kisses they would share. But in came the bad memories. Akhlys drowning in her own poison while he drowns her to death with her own domain. The torture in Tartarus, the friends that he lost and their faces of hurt and disgust as they look at him. Each of them broke him apart, piece by piece, as his thirst for revenge grew stronger.
He saved them TWICE and they betray him with what, betrayal and suspicion. Battles were won because of his help. He had enough of wiping the Olympians's ases every time they have a problem. Percy opens his eyes with newfound strength.
"I, Chaos, Creator of the Universe, rename you as Winter, the first season." Power flow to Percy. It is strong and ancient.
He feel a cold wind brush his back so he look back and see wings. They are black, midnight black with traces of ice. His wings are 14 ft in wingspan.
He stretches them and fold them. It feel like he grow another set of arms. Chaos and Anchor watch in amusement as Chaos's new subject experiment in wonder with his new-found powers.
"Winter, as you are the first season, you will meet the other seasons, Spring, Summer and Autumm and your moderator, or shall I say, friend and training partner," Chaos looks at Anchor and Anchor nod "I have called the other seasons so you can be familiar with them. You will work with them in your duties so it is best if you all will be friends and get along with each other." Interrupting Percy, Chaos spoke and command the three seasons to appear.
Spring is a tall man. A little bit shorter than Percy. His hair is blonde and has striking blue eyes. A green and black shirt fits his chest along with oversized pants.
*Imagine that but replace the red with green and his hair is blonde.
The guy approaches Percy. "Hey Winter, nice to meet you. My name is Spring, the first season." Spring reaches out his hand as if to shake hands. Percy nod and shake his hand. He is more of the relaxed type.
Next was Summer, the guy is the shortest. He has black hair and is wearing a white shirt with jumpers. Skipping towards Percy, he say "Hello Winter. Nice to meet cha. My name is Summer, the second season." He flashes Percy a smile that remind Percy of Apollo.
Autumm is the quiet guy. He walk towards Percy and nod." Autumm, third season." He wears an oversized jacket and a scarf with black jeans. He have black hair and is taller than Summer but still smaller than Spring.
Quietly, he walk back to his place.
Percy look at Anchor and Anchor nods. "Hi, I am Anchor, your what do you call again ah yes, moderator or you could just say it as acquaintance, trainer and friend. I hope we all will be able to work together despite us having different personalities and our likes and dislikes." Chaos look at Anchor and mutters softly to Anchor so only Anchor could hear.
"You didn't tell them?"
"Tell them what?"
"Tell them that you are also an ambassador from your home world?"
"They will know in time." Anchor talk back to Chaos and everyone is wondering what they are talking about until Chaos starts talking.
"Anchor here is a ki-" Chaos is cut short by Anchor covering Chaos's mouth with his hands. Anchor smile apologically to all of the seasons.
"I'm sorry guys, it is apparent that Chaos here talks a bit too much about my identity." Anchor release his hold on Chaos's mouth and Chaos look at Anchor apologically.
"Sorry Anchor."
"No problem. I'll tell them when I'm ready." Chaos nod and look at the seasons who are well met.
After they meet and mingle with one another, Chaos tell the three seasons to resume their duties and come back when he need their help while he ask Winter to stay in the training room with Anchor. Winter nod and look at Anchor who nod at Chaos.
One by one, the other three seasons run outside and spread their wings to fly.
