Percy Jackson : Rewind Time

'Hi mum!' Hemera said, but Nyx did not hear her or at least I assumed she did not.

"Well, this is awkward…" I mumbled while Tyson stared at Nyx who returned the stare.

"So are we going to run?" I asked, gaining Nyx's attention.

"Yeah, we should go." She stepped forward and placed her hand on my shoulder. She tried to do the same for Tyson but he stepped back, clearly afraid of Nyx. I can't blame him.

"She is scary." He stuttered.

"Oh, wait till I rip your guts out, that will be scary." Nyx hissed angrily.

I glared at her before saying, "Tyson just trust her."

Tyson swallowed and stepped closer to her, "only because you trust her brother."

Nyx rolled her eyes and placed her free hand on his shoulder. Shadows engulfed our bodies much to mine and Tyson's surprise. A weird tugging sensation pulled at my stomach.

A second later we had teleported and we were standing outside in Church Street, a few blocks away from my school.

Nyx let go of us and looked proud at me. "Well?" she asked.

"You can shadow travel?" I asked.

"Can a bird fly?" she sarcastically asked.

"Yes unless it's a penguin."

She rolled her eyes, "I mean, of course I can shadow travel! The darkness is my domain."

"Who is she Percy?" He asked and grabbed my hand.

Nyx scowled but did not respond.

"She's a friend of mine."

This seemed to brighten her mood and she smiled.

"But how are you here? Aren't you inside Tartarus or something?" I asked.

She grinned happily. "See that's the beauty of this all, remember last year how I asked you to sacrifice some small things for me?"

I nodded, "yeah, though I don't agree about the word small, you literally suggested sacrificing Ares."

She huffed, "well anyway, I used those sacrifices to create a new body for me!" She spun around showing off her new body.

"Wait, you are possessing someone or something?"

"I don't understand it." Tyson said.

"Yeah me neither." I stated.

Nyx sighed, "I wanted to come with you on your adventures instead of watching so I used all my power and some of the sacrifices you gave me to create me a new body, it took me almost a year to get my consciousness inside this body without losing my knowledge but I've done it!"

Nyx cheered happily.

"So you are a demigod now?" I asked.

She nodded, "Yeah, now I am a demigod. I still have a lot of my powers, but I'm less powerful. I sacrificed a lot of power to squeeze myself into this body."

She spun again, and she gave off a dark glow with her body. "Awesome isn't it? Now I am coming with you!"

"Sorry but I think your appearance is kind of giving away your identity." I admitted.

She snapped her finger and her appearance flickered between her current appearance and was replaced by a version of Nyx which was still beautiful but to the mortal no glowing eyes and dress. More mortal like.

"The mist!" I called out.

'This was the surprise she had for you.' Hemera said.

'Even though it's really risky, she wanted to come with you on your quest so badly that she took the risk.' Chaos added.

'What risk?' I asked.

'Well if she dies her consciousness will be destroyed and it will take like a few hundreds of years for her to heal it.' Hemera said with a disappointed tone.

Nyx noticed I was silent and probably talking to the primordials. "Oh, hell no!" she shouted and stepped forward. Before I could resist or protest she pressed her thumb against my forehead.

I felt her presence enter me again.

'No talking about me without me.' she said and she smiled. Then resumed saying, "I don't like it if you talk about me behind my back. Now I can hear whatever they say inside your head."

'Killjoy.' Chaos muttered.

"I heard that!" Nyx yelled.

Tyson stared at us like we were crazy.

"But why would you take such a risk?" I asked.

"Because it's fun and I have nothing else to do, duh." Nyx said, rolling her eyes.

"But what about Annabeth? You know with the timeline?"

"Well, it turns out that you've been such a dick to Annabeth that you altered the timeline and she won't stick around with you."

"What? She tried to kill me. How do you know that kind of information at all?"

"The Fates are my daughter remember?"

"Look, a helicopter!" Tyson said, interrupting our conversation as he pointed at something in the distance. A black helicopter flew towards my school. It hung in the air above the school. Then it dropped something on the school.

All of this happened within 10 seconds.

A loud bang followed.

"What in Hades' name?" I muttered afraid.

In the distance screams were heard and I saw green flames lit up the skyline of lower Manhattan where my school used to be.

"A Greek Fire Bomb, deadly for divine beings. They dropped it in the hope to kill you if you managed to escape. They are after you."

"WHAT? Who is after me?"

"Triumvirate Holdings."

"What is Trump Pirate holdings?" Tyson asked.

"TRI-UM-VI-RATE." Nyx slowly said, pronouncing each syllable like Tyson was a baby.

"But what is it?" Tyson asked.

"And why are they after me? Shouldn't they wait till the end of the Giant war?"

Nyx sighed and turned towards Tyson, "Triumvirate Holdings is an organization led by a bunch of Roman emperors who made themselves immortal. They want to rule the entire world," then she turned towards me, "and they are after Percy because he was so stupid to attract their attention."

Tyson nodded like it was as something that happens every day.

"What did I do wrong?" I cried out.

"You took Meg away from Nero and with that you basically acknowledge their existence and forced them to act."

"But that's not fair, I can't let Meg be stuck with a monster like him!"

"Whatever, right now we need to run!" Nyx said excitedly.

"So are we going to call the Grey Sisters?" I asked.

"Nope I have my own transport!"

Nyx stepped towards the street and started chanting in a language I did not understand.

"She's scary." Tyson whispered.

"I know, and this is not even her divine form."

As Nyx was chanting, shadows from all the nearby objects made their way towards her. Pulling away from walls, objects and even herself, gliding over the ground and gathering in front of her into something bigger. They solidified into a chariot and two horses.

The chariot was made of a black substance that I soon recognized as Stygian Iron. The chariot was beautiful with multiple shades of black intertwining. Scenes I did not understand were sketched out on the side of the chariot.

In front were two void black horses with silver fangs. They were equally majestic as terrifying.

"No please not them again." I muttered.

'Can we eat him this time?' The left one asked.

"No Shade! We will not kill him nor his friend." Nyx scowled.

"You summoned your chariot?" I asked, a bit terrified.

Nyx nodded happily, "cool isn't it!"

"Brings up bad memories." I muttered. Last time I had seen them was in Tartarus.

"Vampire Ponies!" Tyson cried out and wanted to step forward to pet one of the horses.

"Don't!" Nyx yelled but was too late. Tyson took a step forward and began to touch the horse named Shade who was enjoying it against all odds. 'More!' Shade cried out.

I glanced at Nyx with a questioning look, but she was just as stumped as I was.

'Now me!' The other horse cried out.

"Why don't they kill him?" I asked. "Not that they should."

"I have no clue, Shadow and Shade never let anyone close to them except me." Nyx said with a betrayed tone.

"So you named them Shade and Shadow? Original."

"What do you mean?" She was clearly confused.

"Nevermind. Are you going to drive us to Long Island?"

"Yeah!" She cheered like I asked her to do it instead of it being the only option. She stepped onto her chariot and gestured for me to come.

"Won't it kill me?" I asked.

She shook her head, "No as long as I consider you my friend it won't kill you." She grabbed the reins with a creepy smile.

"Uh...great."

If you give me the choice of riding in the taxi of Damnation with the three Grey Sisters while being tied, blindfolded and driving through Tartarus or driving with Nyx I would happily choose the first option. Nyx's chariot did want to kill me.

Apparently Nyx did not know how the rules of traffic worked nor did she care about dodging things like pedestrians and the sidewalk.

She smiled like a mad man while she drove on the wrong side of the road at a speed that she called, shadow speed. She did not wait for traffic lights, instead they just encouraged her to drive faster and faster. Normally I would hold onto the chariot to prevent myself from falling but holding the chariot was even more dangerous as she missed things with only a few inches between them. I was forced to hold onto her waist and wrap my leg around her to prevent myself from falling or being pulled out of the chariot by the g-force. Tyson held onto my back while hanging half outside of the chariot, throwing up on the street and passing cars.

Just your typical New York traffic.

"Slower!" I yelled, but Nyx did not hear me.

"Why are they all going in the opposite direction?" Nyx yelled.

"Wrong side on the road!"

Nyx used the sidewalk to skip a line and drove straight through a plaza for a 'shortcut'.

'How are we not dead yet?' I asked Chaos.

'Her chariot is enchanted to be indestructible just as her horses.'

Nyx scratched the edge of a government building with the side of the chariot but instead of stopping the chariot the wall broke off and scattered into pieces.

'Did you know she crashed once down to earth and created the moon?' Hemera said.

'Yeah, Chaos was pissed after she had done that.' Aether snickered.

"IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!" Nyx yelled.

"You created the fucking moon!"

"Only did it once!"

We arrived at Half-Blood Hill within 10 minutes but it felt like I spent an hour on the world's most dangerous roller coaster. I stumbled out of the chariot with Tyson, throwing up the blue waffles I had for breakfast.

I leaned against a tree while trying to regain my balance.

"Never again." Tyson muttered.

"It was not that bad right?" Nyx blinked.

"You hit 12 pedestrians! Do you even have a license?"

She looked hurt, "well it was not that bad, none of them died anyway. A week in a hospital and they can take on the world."

Screams erupted from the distance and we all looked up to fin where they came from. We stormed up the hill, only to find two metal bulls the size of an elephant.

Multiple campers were running over the hill, some were trying to take a stand against the bulls but most of them were just running away.

The bulls easily crossed the border and chased after a group of campers who tried to do a phalanx formation but there were just not enough people to do it properly. The bull stormed through their defense and tossed the campers away.

"Border patrol come to me!" Clarisse shouted.

I turned to Tyson and Nyx.

"Nyx you help Clarisse, Tyson and I do the other."

"I'll help my brother." Tyson agreed

"Why can't I come with you?" Nyx asked, saddened.

"Because Tyson and I are both fireproof and you are not."

She pouted but I already ran up the hill shouting at the bull who was about to charge Clarisse from behind.

"Hey metal head!" I yelled, waving Riptide. It worked and the bull turned to me

Tyson caught up to me and looked at the bull with a scared look. Still, he stood his ground.

"What's the plan brother?"

"When it charges at us try to do an uppercut." I said and uncapped Riptide. FrostSilver was kind of useless since it was made of ice. Sure it would not melt immediately but the effort it took to prevent it from melting was not worth it.

"Okay." Tyson swallowed as the bull charged at us.

He readied his first while the bull opened his mouth and spit a colom fire engulfed us. However with me being Hestia's champion and Tyson being a cyclops we survived it to the bull's surprise. I could almost see the metal gears in his head. Still, it was storming towards us and wasn't about to change direction.

When the bull was close enough Tyson stepped forward and hit it from under its jaw with such force it threw him up slightly.

I used the momentum to slash it through the unprotected belly. My sword slashed through the metal and the bull roared. Oil and other liquids I did not know the name of splashed all over us.

However the damage was enough to cause a short circuit in it's head.

Tyson rammed his fist through the head of the bull while shouting, "bad cow!"

After a few punches I was sure it was dead. Tyson grinned at me.

I was about to check on Nyx when I heard a scream coming from downhill.

'The hearth.' I thought by myself before running towards it.

(Nyx)

It was great to have a human body, seriously. The fact I had adrenaline rushing through my veins was enough to make up for all the trouble of creating a body. I ran towards Clarisse who was eyeing the bull who was running in circles around her, waiting for the good moment to strike.

"Clarisse!" I yelled.

She looked up to see me. "Who are you?" She asked, hostile.

I made a mental note for myself to completely destroy her later.

"If I can make the bull trip can you end it?" I shouted.

She spun her spear which was another copy Lamer and nodded.

I focused on the shadow underneath the bull. I pulled my hand forward and imagined it pulling through the shadow. It was a lot harder than normal but I was able to pull it through.

From underneath the bull's shadow a black hand appeared which grabbed the hind leg and pulled it down.

The bull tried to jump but instead fell face first to the ground. Clarisse jumped forward and pierced it with her spear. The shaft burrowed itself into its head. The bull let out a final roar before it went silent.

"AWESOME." I cried out.

"Who are you?" Clarisse asked angry.

"I'm a demigod, a friend of Percy."

"A friend of Prissy?" She asked.

"No Percy." I corrected her.

"I just said that."

"No you said Prissy!" She was surprisingly dumb and it would take a lot of time to teach her the difference between prissy and Percy. Some mortals are just not as smart as Percy.

I was about to kill her when a high pitched scream came from camp. I saw Percy running down the hill in a panic.

I shadow travelled towards him.

(Percy)

I ran down to camp where I found a crowd that had gathered around the hearth. Screams were coming from there and I was expecting the worst. I pulled aside a few campers who blocked my view and saw with horror what they were staring at and where the screams came from.

Hestia's hearth was normally one of the most beautiful places in Camp Half Blood. Now, it wasn't.

In front of me was a girl chained to the burning hearth. The pieces of charcoal underneath her still blazed and flames were eating away at her flesh.

Four Black metallic chains, every limb one, made her form a star with her middle covering the hearth. The chains were pinned to the ground with concrete slabs. The girl was not dead for some reason. The flames of the hearth did burn her alive but she was still screaming in pain. Nyx appeared next to me and saw what I was looking at.

"Oh, Chaos." she gasped.

I realised what must have happened, the bulls were a distraction.

Meg was chained to the burning hearth.
