Chapter 1: the war part 1

A/N: Hi, I'm new to this site and had an idea for a story, so I thought I would try it out. Please tell me what you think. And please excuse any grammatical errors.

A/N 2: updated quite a few changes. Please read this author note. I have edited the first 5 chapters. However, with work, assignments etc. and my perfectionistness that deems the new chapter for this unacceptable by my standards so I wont post a new chapter yet-sorry. However, I shall post a few one shots of ideas I have over the next few weeks, then maybe depending on likes and reviews continue them so I can get through this writers block. Dw I will continue with this story as soon as I can.

Narrator POV: (A/N: Percy still has Curse of Achilles because I think I can use it nicely in this chapter. The story will be told mainly from the narrator-me, or Percy's POV but I may mix it up idk.)

The war with Gaia was at its peak. This was the last stand. The Greek and Roman demigods had joined ranks in front of Camp Half-Blood. Most of the Giants had already perished. Enceladus had been defeated by Jason, Piper and Leo when they had gone to save Piper's father. Alcyoneus had been slain in Canada by Frank and Hazel. Polybotes was turned to dust by Percy and Terminus in New Rome. The twin Giants Ephialtes and Otis downed by Jason and Percy and then killed by Bacchus. Damasen was in Tartarus and was friendly anyway and so was not part of this war. Clytius had set alight by Hazel and Hecate. The only major threat was Porphyrion who was in combat with the seven from the prophecy.

Then of course the main threat was Gaia. The Gods were battling the Primordial deity and were barely holding their own. Nico and Will stood back to back as they took on a horde of hellhounds with Mrs O'Leary by their side. Reyna stood in front of the Romans, rallying the cohorts to the eagle as they charged head on to a battalion consisting of Laistrygonians, Empousai, Dracaena and Drakons.

Clarisse gathered the Greeks and screamed "CHARGE!" as the Greeks met Cyclopes, the Hydra and several karpoi on the battlefield. The hunters were perched on trees and picked off the monsters that posed threats that were unseen by the demigods engaged in battle. Those that were still fighting were fighting valiantly. Some were injured and had been taken to safety by harpies and Argus where some of the Apollo cabin had set up a medical bay.

Grover was leading the satyrs/fauns and nature spirits who were fighting with clubs or playing reed pipes that caused plants to wrap around enemy monsters and cause them to trip resulting in campers slaying them as they struggled to get back to their feet. However, there were many casualties; bodies had fallen and littered the battlefield, waiting to be claimed by the harpies or Argus and placed carefully with the other bodies, respectfully on the side.

In the centre of the battle, a lone demigod in Greek armour and a leaf-shaped, glowing Celestial Bronze sword, sliced through an Empousai as if her armour was made of paper. As the monster turned to dust, he stopped, wiped the sweat as it dripped down his forehead and swept his messy, uncontrollable raven black hair back to reveal his sea green eyes only, for his hair to fall back to its original state. He scoured the battlefield looking to see where he would be needed the most. He had been in many battles. Against Ares, the fights as they retrieved Zeus's master bolt and the Golden Fleece, held the sky. He bared the Curse of Achilles, he'd battled both Hyperion and Kronos, and lived. He'd helped retrieve the lost standard of the legion. He was a former praetor of Rome and was a hero of Olympus… he was Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon.

Percy POV:

I wiped the sweat off my forehead and ran my hand through my hair to sweep it out of my eyes but to no avail. I looked at my surroundings to see where I could help the most. I saw the Amazons and the Romans fighting side by side on my left and slowly deplete half of the monsters in Gaia's army. On my right the Greeks and the Cyclopes including Briares and Tyson (who had Ella flying in circles around him) slowly but surely turning the other half of Gaia's army into dust. In front of me I could see the rest of the seven. The Gods were engaged fighting the King of the Giants and Gaia. I ran up to Thalia, Leo, Frank, Hazel and Piper.

"Thalia go and help the rest of the hunters." I looked at Piper and Leo as Thalia ran to join her sisters.

"Piper, Leo go and reinforce the Greeks wherever they need help. Hazel, Frank go and help the Romans. It looks like the third cohort is about to be stretched too far for them to hold ranks. I'll help here with Jason and Annabeth." I could tell they were exhausted. It was etched on their faces and I knew they wouldn't be able to face another Giant. I wouldn't be able to take it if any of them died. We had all grown close in the last few days. I guess impending doom does that to people. Piper and Leo ran towards the Greeks whilst Frank turned into an eagle and grabbed Hazel and flew into the midst of the third cohort before turning into a tiger and pouncing into the enemy ranks. I looked at the Giant to decide who I was going to help. My instinct was to go to Annabeth as I wouldn't be able to bare it if something happened to her. I was able to run towards her when I heard Jason cry out in pain.

I looked over just as the bane of Zeus caught him with the butt of the spear causing him to fall unconscious. I silently cursed as I sprinted at top speed and just about parried Porphyrion's spear as he went to deal the final blow to Jason. I summoned a wave that pushed the Giant back a few feet. I looked at the son of Jupiter and an understanding passed between us. I charged. The wind picked up as I was surrounded by my own personal hurricane. I knew Jason was helping me as the lightning flashed around me as I pressed the Giant back. Whenever it looked like the Giant was gaining the advantage, Jason would strike causing the King of Giants to falter. Suddenly, there was a blood-curdling scream coming from my right that was so ear-bursting that it caused all the fighting to stop. Literally. Even the giant's army stopped fighting. I looked over at the sight that met my eyes caused my heart to sink…
