Percy POV

"...What? " Was a colective gasp.

"Long story short: the universe is horrible and we will be that kinda 'bad' good guys."I explained.

Chaos chuckled and elaborated my explanation. It made sense when she said it.

"Okay. We're doing it." Said Rachel and Leo nodded.

" Really?" I was shocked.

"Of course. We get to do what we do best, fighting, and we get away from those pigs that calls themselves gods." Said Jake.

".... I love you, guys." I gathered all of them in big group hug. We stayed like that for a while, when a cough intrerrupted us.

It was Hades. Oh my gods, I was just then realising we were in the Underworld, in Hades' palace.

"Lord Hades." We bowed to him. He just smiled.

" Come, we have a surprise for you." We got up and silently followed him, throwing each other curious looks.

We walked slowly through the Fields of Asphodels. After a while we arrived at a big beautiful gate with all kinds of jewels on it. The King of the Underworld opened it and motioned for us to enter. It was...

"Elysium..." He whispered and continued walking through the streets. " You can take with you whoever you want, but not too many."

"What...?" My voice broke. I couldn't believe what he was saying. Anyone I wanted?

"I feel bad for what ... My brother did. And you deserve something good in this life so they" he pointed to Order and Chaos "have an idea. That I can't deny."

I looked at the others. The gods were looking at me and smiling, even Hades. My friends were encouraging me to go. I took a deep breath and entered Elysium.

In front of me a young girl materialized. She had a silver jacket long flowing dark brown hair and a floppy green hat.

I felt tears in my eyes. "I will guide you." She said smiling at me. I gently took her hand in mine and stared right into her eyes.

"You know why I'm here, right?" She nodded, her eyes showed that she knew what I was going to ask. " Then would you like come with us, Bianca?"

"Since I found out about Father's wishes, I knew you were going to ask me to come back. So I thought long and hard about it. But I realised" my heart shrunk. " I miss it! I miss it Percy! I want back there!" We both started crying and hugged each other. The others behind us were silent.

"Come! I know where we have to go first!"

She dragged me through streets of white, picket fence houses, while other ghosts were looking at us weirdly. We stopped in front one that had jewel like flowers in the window sills. She knocked in the door and entered with no regard of what the owner of the house thought.

"I'M HOME!" She yelled.

A pretty blonde with a pink frilly apron and a rolled up news paper (they have newspapers in Elysium?) entered the living room. I just looked​ a her.

"Welcome home! How are you, Bi-..." She stopped when she saw me. She raised the paper and pointed it at me. " I swear to Hades, Percy, if you died I'm going to kill you."

I went up to her and hugged her, ignoring the death treats. She hugged her back, but she was crying angry tears.

"Percy! Listen to me! You better not be dead or I swear..." her voice broke and she clinged to me.

" I missed you Silly." She gripped the back of my shirt tighter​. "And surprisingly, I'm still alive."

Bianca handed us a tissue box. Silena took it and used one to wipe her face.

"Although Zeus almost made Percy steak, extra roasted. " The girls snorted.

"How?"

"Well long story short, camp knows I can bear children, they're​ assholes, I leave and when I come back Will is dead" Silena frowned." They believe I killed him,so I get banished, Rachel, Jake and Leo decide to come with me, Jake basically calls the Olympians stupid and we get abducted by Chaos, as in the creator of the flipping universe, and Hades is actually a good guy." I had no qualms to tell her about my ability since she most likely knew. "Where's Charles?" Yes, I do call Beckendorf Charles or Charlie.

"Sitting in the door frame trying to understand that Will is ... Dead?" Answered a deep male voice.

"Yes, but not for long!" The couple looks confused. "And that brings me to the reason as to why I'm here. Hades would like to compensate and well... How do You guys feel about living again, like Death had never happened?"

They looked at each other, then at me and Silena squeezed my hand.

"I said yes, I'm going back with him. it would be amazing if you came too." Said Bianca. And then Silena smiled.

"Of course we'll come with you! Now we can take care of you."

We all hugged. "Now I have to find a hero." I pause. " Where does Luke live?"

"Hmmm, kind of far, but you're lucky he came unanounced to dinner." Said an amused voice.

I broke away from Silena and ran to Luke. I grabbed his forearms and squeezed.

" You heard what I told them, if I asked you the same question, what would be your answer?"

"For you, Percy? I would do anything to prove that I regret my actions."

"Then come! Come and show me you're the Luke I know and love!" I said firmly and we hugged.

We talked a bit more then we went out to the gates.

"Leo would be so excited to meet you." I told Charles.

"Oh right! I remembered I wanted to ask who's this Leo?" Asked Silena excitedly. "You seem to like him!"

"I love him,Yes. He's the little brother I have always wanted. About him though... He's a hyperactive firebug who's hair catches fire when he's embarassed. And he plays with his hands a lot..."

"Wait! What do you mean his hair catches fire?" Asked Luke curiously.

"There's a reason we call him firebug." I chuckled. "He's really nice and awesome, but he can uhhh.... Set himself on fire?" I tried explaining.

"He's a child of Hephaestus?" Charles was shocked. "I have a little brother that creates fire?"

"Yes, he is and yes, you do. Anyway one of the coolest things he did was that he found a way to make Festus fly."

"Festus?" They were all looking at me confused as heck. Right, they didn't know we named the dragon.

"Yes, Festus. That dragon we found in the woods about 5 years ago."

"5 years?" Silena's Voice was weak. "Percy... How old are you?"

I looked the ground, then I turned to them and smiled sadly. "I'll be 20 in two months." We were nearing the gates.

Luke put a hand in my shoulder. "What happened after we died?"

"Oh nothing out of usual. Gaia thought it would be funny to rise and try to kill us. The roman demigods decided to atack us because we're greek. Leo died and came back. Thalia got a little brother, a roman one,Jason. We went to Europe. And closed the Doors of Death. Oh and that's how Nico got a new sister. Her name is Hazel and she's the sweetest person alive. She's from the thirties."

We reached the gates and Rachel hit me.

"Ow! What was that for?"

She glared at me. "What about not telling them about your little detour through Tartarus?"

"WHAT?!?!" Four voices shouted ar the same time. Silena yanked me towards her and slapped both her hands in my cheeks to keep me in place.

"How the actual flying fuck did you get yourself in that place." She spat out the last word.

"Because he saved Annabeth, If I knew she was like this I would've let her slip." Whispered Leo. He frowned at the ground.

I got Silena's hands of my face and turned to him. "Leo-"

"No, Percy!" He stomped his foot and glared at me. "She hurt you!"

"I would've saved her. Even If it meant this was going to happen. Because she wouldn't have been able to close the Doors by herself. And we needed to close them." I put my arms around his shoulders and he collapsed into my chest. He returned the gesture.

"How could she say that?" I heard Silena say. Rachel probably told her what happened.

"Maybe that way she could get rid of the abomination in the camp" I whispered.

"You're completely normal, Perce. And we love you, always remember that." Said Jake.

"I know" I smiled sadly.

Leo pushed himself away from me and smiled one of his real smiles.

"Anyway! Stop it with that bitch! I don't know who you guys are but you seem kind of awesome because you seem to able to put some sense in this idiot. Buuut! I am Leo Valdez, Supersized McShizzle and Bad-Boy Supreme." He said as he flexed his non existent muscles.

Silena giggled. The other three were a little dumbfounded.

"This is how he usually is." I said.

"He's cute, adorable even." Silena said.

Leo pointed at Silena and said: " I like this one."

"Why, thank you." She said. Leo grinned.

"Do you think you can guess their names? They're ​old campers who died in the Titan War."

"Well, Perce, let me see. You,"he pointed to Luke" blond, scarred, tired, you must be Luke Castellan, I think I saw a photo of you back in camp."

"Cool kid." Said Luke impressed.

"Thanks, let's see..." He looked at Bianca. "Glare at me with the most heated glare you've got." Bianca looked confused.

"Just do it." I said. And she did it, Leo shivered.

"Yep, Bianca di Angelo, Death Breath's older sister." Bianca pouted, she looked like Nico when she did that, I wonderful if they got it from Hades." Percy told me about that quest once."

"Hmmm,nice, pretty, blonde, dotting mother hen, you remind me of Will, and the bulky, strong, black, pretty good looking. What's with Percy and his stupidly good looking friends. Uhhh. I know but I don't know who are you, Percy?"

"The Princess Andromeda quest."

"Ah! Oh! Oh my gods! Oh my gods! You're Silena and Charles!! Aaaaaaaaahhh!! Omg!" Leo started fanboying. He ran to Charlie and started gesturing wildly. " I just LOVE your bed! And the while Cabin is sooooooo awesome! And the guys there are so cool and your inventions are all over the place, and I fixed some of them mainly because I broke them, but they are awesome! My favourite is Festus! But I like this one too." He took some sort of cube out of his pocket. "It helps with ADHD. Oh! Did you know that there is this place in the woods where I found wings for Festus? It's really big and nice and silent since usually it's just me or Percy." Leo's hair was smoking and the tips of his ears were on fire. I put my hands over them and he instantly stopped.

"They can't follow what you say, slower."

"A-ah! I'm sorry!" He smiled innocently at them.

We laughed. A voice sounded behind us.

"I swear to my father that this is the weirdest thing I have ever seen. I mean, three gods watching fondly some demigods out of which ar least half are supposed to be dead at the gates of Elysium? Weird."

I whirled around and hugged the new comer. "Willlllll!!!" He hugged back. When we broke apart Jake enveloped Will in another hug. They both blushed.

"I ship it" whispered Leo and Silena ar the same time, they turned to each other and high-fived.

"Who was it?" I asked and he looked confused for second.

"... Alan." He whispered.

"Ahhh ! I knew it! The fucking bitch! I'm going to fucking kill it!"

"Perce, that's useless. Don't go get yourself killed for that shit. He isn't worth. And you know they're after your neck." Said Jake.

"What do you mean they want to kill him?" Asked Will alarmed.

I calmed down, explained what happened in the last few hours and asked the same question. "Do you want to come with us?"

He looked at Jake, his eyes were pleading. Will smiled. "I wouldn't refuse even If I was paid."

Alan used some voodoo shit and sacrificed a baby lamb for some god and they took away Will's immortality and that's​how it happened.
