Lunar's Plight

A Fraction of Power

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Percy Jackson, nor Heroes of Olympus, Rick Riordan does

Kronos' POV:

I sat on my throne at Medusa's old lair deep in thought. This Perseus Jackson was a problem, he simply wasn't corruptible. I had attempted to send him visions, dreams to try to convince him to join me. But it felt like I was hitting a barrier stronger than anything I have ever encountered. As I was mulling over this demigod, I saw one of my monster allies walk forward before dropping into a deep bow.

"Lord Kronos, the monster armies are ready to advance on Olympus, we await your command milord" the empousa said and I sneered

"Any sign of the Olympian brats? What about their pets?" I asked

"The demigods were not seen during our scouting, and the guardian Phoenix, was seen setting up various traps but other than that, we have seen no other resistance" the empousa said and I nodded

"March on Olympus, lets finish this pathetic rule of my children" I said and the empousa bowed before running out

Once I was alone again, I slouched over as my mind returned to the demigod Perseus Jackson. If only he were host, or better yet, my general.

"I wonder what would have happened if Perseus was my child instead of those pathetic gods, would fight alongside me in battle?" I asked myself and sighed "Whatever, that demigod is dead, I saw his motionless body on the surface of the ocean. He got what he deserved for insulting me with my own domain" I said as I turned my focus to a map that was in front of me that displayed the entirety of Manhattan "It's only a matter of... Time" I say with a smirk, but suddenly I felt a shiver go down my spine and I frowned "Whatever"

Percy's POV:

I stood next to Lee as we balanced on the side of Williamsburg Bridge. I had my bow drawn with an arrow notched as we waited patiently for the monster army to advance.

"Perce, here they come" Lee whispered and I looked down the bridge to see a large force of monsters and a few demigods marching down the bridge

"I see them" I say as I take the arrow out of my bow and return it to my quiver "Hand me a supersonic" I say and Lee hands me a thick arrow that had speaker like objects on the shaft

I notched the arrow, took aim, then drew the arrow back.

"Only one way to say hi from the Apollo cabin, and that's with some rockin' music" I say as I fire the arrow

The arrow flew silently through the air and then pitched downwards where it embedded itself into the first few rows of monsters. Suddenly, a loud blasting sound emanated from where the arrow landed. The closest monsters instantly burst into golden dust as the surrounding monsters held their ears in pain.

"Nice" Lee said as he notched an arrow and fired, along with the other Apollo kids. I laughed as I notched an arrow and fired it at a demigod that I saw running to our side of the bridge

I watched as the arrow embedded itself into the traitor's eye and he fell dead instantly.

"Hey Lee, I bet I could kill more enemies than you" I said and Lee rolled his eyes

"While now is not the time... You're on!" Lee declared as he loaded two arrows and fired at a pair of hell hounds

Both arrows found their mark as they killed the monsters instantly. I scoffed as I loaded three arrows and fired into the mob of monsters racing to try and reach us. I then saw that they were over halfway and I decided to get in close.
