As promised, here is the second chapter, wee you will learn why and how was Percy broken. It may make him a bit overpowered at first, but he will have to deal with powerful enemies later so I think it is okay. And let's admit it, Percy was already ovrpowered in the book, not that I mind ^^

The Broken Hero

"I think it's functioning, his body is reacting positively." Said a familiar voice. Wait voice. So he is not totally unconscious anymore. That was the first thing Percy noticed. It went on, the voices saying that his body was reacting well to some treatment or operation.

After what seemed to be an eternity, he was able to open his eyes. And the first thing he saw was gold. Just gold nothing else. He moved his head to the side to see a small table. And he assumed he was in Apollo's temple. Then the said god entered.

"So, let's check his vitals." Muttered Apollo without looking away from a paper.

"Hey Golden boy!" Greeted Percy. And Apollo jumped in surprise and let out a girlish scream. Making Percy laugh.

"Oh gods of Olympus if Artemis learnt she had a sister!" Only to be met with the angry glare of Apollo.

"You will never, ever speak of that to anyone understood?" Percy nodded. And Apollo's angry face morphed into a nervous one.

"Now to the difficult part. You know you had some pretty serious injuries when you fought Gaea. Well, how can I say that? When began to heal them but you lose your limb, a part of your brain and an eye. We replaced it… With… Hum… mechanical and electronic parts, or you would not die and you would remain like a conscious vegetable. We are sorry but we did what we could." Apollo helped him to raise and for the first time, Percy remarked the mechanical parts. It was so unfamiliar, repulsing yet fascinating at the same time. He slowly walked to a body mirror. He walk was still hesitant but he managed to do it. And he saw everything. And it shocked him.

His arms and legs were clearly mechanical, a somewhat futurist design. Black with parts in gold. And he looked at his face. He saw his right eye it was different. Glowing a bit, green like his other one but the slight glowing made it obvious it was mechanical. Under the shock, he stepped back and fell on the floor, a tear running down his left cheek. As he fell, two Olympian gods flashed in the room, only to see the face of the demigod.

"I'm a monster." Whispered Percy. "I… I am not me anymore right? It must come with a price. What is it?" Quietly asked Percy. It was Artemis who answered.

"You had to be made immortal, like my hunters." Said the goddess. And Percy nodded. They saw his eyes dull. Even his right one.

"Now come Hero of Olympus, now that you are awake, we can give the rewards to the seven." Said Artemis. Percy nodded and stood up, to be taken in a hug by his father.

"You still are my son, my pride and joy, don't forget that." Said Poseidon, which made Percy smile a bit. Percy dressed in a blue jean, a t-shirt, a hoodie and some fingerless gloves and turned to the three gods.

"How long was I out?" Asked Percy in a monotone.

"A month. It's been a month since your victory." Percy noticed how Poseidon said it was his and not their but did not made any comment. And after a flash of light he was transported behind the doors of the throne room. He was hearing a huge argument behind it. He opened the door and every one fell silent. He walked in, head high and walked straight to the throne of Zeus. He bowed a bit.

"Lord Zeus." Spat the son of Poseidon. Hearing the tone, Zeus eyes narrowed. But Percy walked aback and for the first time noticed that the two camps were in the room, roman on his right and walked to the Greek campers. He made his way to Annabeth and everyone noticed the changed in Percy for the first time. As they heard the little motors and saw his eye. Everyone backed away from him and that made him flinch a bit. Then he saw Annabeth disgusted face and he felt something inside him break, something Aphrodite and Artemis felt. It was his heart.

He looked around, looking for Nico and couldn't find him.

"Where is the Goth?" Asked Percy. He turned around to see Hades' sad face.

"What happened to him?" Whispered Percy.

"An earthborn attacked him from behind, killing him instantly. Just after you blacked out." Percy fell on his knees. A tear dropped from his face and the throne room shook violently, the shies darkened, rain fell, the seas went restless and slowly a hurricane appeared above Olympus.

"Brother! Stop this right now!" Yelled Zeus as he took out his master bolt. But Poseidon shook his head.

"I am not doing anything!" Yelled back Poseidon. And everyone understood it was Percy.

"Where were you Olympians? When we were fighting. I saw Artemis, Apollo, Poseidon, Hades, Mars and even Hestia fight. Where were you when we were fighting? When we were doing your job." The cold voice of Percy rang in the room.

"Don't you dare talk to your king like that! I killed Gaea with my master bolt!" Yelled Zeus only to hear the cold laugh of the son of Poseidon.

"You didn't do anything. Gaea herself said it. I was the one who killed her. What you did was a desperate attempt to have the glory. Your power wasn't even enough to kill me, a demigod. How could it destroy a Primordial, a direct descendent of Lady Chaos?" Said Percy with an insane smile on his lips. His tone was sending chills in everyone's back.

Zeus fired his bolt to Percy. And the demigod sensed something unlock in him, like he was able to analyses everything and answer. He understood it was his machines and electronic parts in him that entered Battle mode. He jumped aside and ran fast. He became a blur to everyone and the next instant, he was on Zeus, his sword on his throat.

"Because of you I became a monster, an abomination. Don't come and brag of anything ever again. Understood?" Zeus nodded and Percy jumped back to his previous position, landing in a loud metallic sound. Hephaestus was looking at him impressed.

"Now to the rewards. Reina! Daughter of Bellona! Come forward!" Yelled an angry Jupiter.

Reina stepped forward and kneeled.

"For your braveness, your skills and feats, we offer you immortality. Do you accept?"

Reina nodded. And every heroes followed. Frank was released of his curse, as well as Hazel. Leo was offered immortality as was Annabeth. Piper too. And then came Jason.

"Jason son of Jupiter! For your heroic acts! We offer you something that we haven't offered to anyone in millennia. We offer you godhood." Sated Jupiter. And Percy couldn't take it anymore. He laughed, rolling on the floor. Jupiter turned to Percy and looked at him with hatred.

"Why do you laugh demigod?"

"Because I know you don't like me, but purposely occulting the fact that I was offered godhood last summer is mean." Jason turned to him and looked at him with wide eyes before turning to Jupiter.

"He was offered godhood? And I wasn't while I defeated Krios?" Yelled the son of Lightning. "Why!" It was Percy who answered.

"Because since I was born, I was chosen by a Great Prophecy, I was in the possibility of dying by the hand of the Titan Lord, same Titan I defeated. Because I was the one who made the choice that permitted to Olympus and the gods to still stand. Because I lead camp half blood and defended Manhattan with barely a hundred demigods. But mostly, because my goal in life wasn't godhood, unlike you apparently." Said Percy. And that silenced Jason who paled before the acts of Percy. He turned to his father and slowly gave his answer.

"I accept godhood father." And Percy shook his head. Jason glowed brightly for a minute and a after that, the fates came in.

"All hail Jason Grace, God of Heroes!" And every demigods bowed even Percy. Before everyone stood up. And Zeus voice was heard.

"The rewards has been given..." And before he could continue. Apollo, Hades, Poseidon, Artemis, Aphrodite and Hephaestus stood up.

"And what about my son!" Yelled Poseidon as he held his trident. "He went through unimaginable pain to save your throne once again! And you don't even want to save him! I should destroy you! I don't care if you are my little brother!"

"My son did everything! He was the one who killed Gaea! Not your monster of a son!" At that he blasted the said demigod. But Hestia put herself in the middle, absorbing the bolt. Everyone stopped. Even Zeus. He just blasted their lovely sister, the only one who always believed in them and loved them. The dust hadn't even cleared when they saw Percy, a green aura around him, launching himself to Zeus and he began to beat a pulp out of him.

"You. Son. Of. A. Bitch! You. Fired. On. Hestia." Said Percy between each punch. Soon, Zeus face was covered in ichor as well as Percy's metallic fist. The dust cleared and everyone gasped. Hestia was in her twenty years old form, the master bolt in her hand.

"I am way stronger than you brother, don't forget I was the destined to be the ruler of Olympus, but as I was nice, I gave it to you. And I am the first god, the strongest, born even before Aphrodite who was born from the ocean and Ouranos semen. She came after me. If you try to kill Percy again, I will become angry, and you don't want that. Now Percy come here." Percy stood up and walked calmly to Hestia before kneeling before her, making her smile.

"Perseus, I decided that you should be rewarded, I know you already are immortal, and whatever the others say, you still are the greatest hero in history. I would like to make you my champion Perseus." Percy accepted and bright flames surrounded him. Everyone could see the distorted face of Percy as he was fighting a pain scream. At the end of it, Percy stood up and Hestia smiled.

"All hail Perseus Jackson, son of Poseidon, Eternal Champion of Hestia, double Hero of Olympus, wanderer of Tartarus, slayer of Kronos, Bane of the Giants, Destroyer of the Titan, killer of Gaea and End of all monster." Announced Hestia with a loud voice. No one bowed but Percy didn't care. He bowed to his new patron and walked away, his face blank and the head high.
