"that didn't mean no... just you are too young for me," Hestia said.
"I'll have you know I turned 67 yesterday. being trapped in time will do that to you," I shrugged.
"how does that work," Hestia asked.
"ah you see one time I was messing around with time and I got stuck in this black place. It was devoid of time so I technically didn't age, so boom here I am in a 15-year-old form.
I still am 15 since I didn't age. just different laws in that place," I said thinking about the black room.
the room itself wasn't a problem to get out of, just more of an annoyance, and since that gave me more time to train, I took it.
I got up from my amazing lap pillow and stretched a bit before holding out my hand.
"now then shall we go," I said as Hestia grabbed my hand.
I raised my sword and cut through space and walked us through it, unaware of what drama I just caused.
(pov Percy)
there were too few of us to hold the front lines and behind us, a portal opened and a girl with white hair was carrying ... Hestia on her shoulder.
I watched as she waved her sword and waves of monsters disintegrated. the monsters that once surrounded us were now the ones running.
I watched her draw a bow and fire it, causing a mini hurricane to destroy monsters.
she walked towards me and I pointed my sword at her ready to fight her.
"Perseus Jackson. just the man I was looking for. take care of Hestia while I deal with Kronos," she said as she put Hestia on the ground and disappeared.
"Who is that," Annabeth asked.
"I believe that would be Percy's twin," Hestia #1 said.
"but I don-" I began to say.
"try not to think about it too much. it'll give you a major headache," she said.
(pov back to Alice)
"come on Kronos is that all you got," I said kicking him in the chest.
"pesky child of Poseidon," he said as he tried to send me flying.
I used my umbrella and wrapped it around his neck and kneed him in his face dazing him.
I then grabbed my spear and began denting his armor, just under his armpit.
"hey Kronos, I don't even need a weapon to fight you," I said putting my weapon away and punching him in the face.
fighting barehanded and he was still losing, man he was a noob.
"com on Kronos. all that talk about killing the gods, and you can't even beat me," I said as I fucked under a slash and uppercut him.
"How are you hitting me," he said trying to stop time. I tapped my foot and time resumed and I punched him again.
"is Kronos this weak," I heard Percy ask.
I heard hestia's soft laughter and I even paused with my fight just to watch her laugh.
"no it's just that she is too strong," Hestia answered as I began fighting again.
I pinned him against the wall and punched him three times in the chest, then an uppercut, and then punched him in the face.
he fell to the ground knocked out and I withdrew my knife and raised his arm and was about to stab him.
"wait," Annabeth called out running to me.
"what is it," I said looking at him.
"We need to take to take him to the gods," she said trying to get in between me and Luke.
speaking of the gods. I snapped my fingers and Typhon fell through Tartarus and into the void, ceasing to exist.
"There, problem solved," I said looking at Luke.
"However your friend's fate shall be decided here."
I pulled out a nickel.
"heads, he lives, tails, he dies," I said flipping the coin and watching it fall to the ground.
it bounced a couple of times and to everyone's amazement, it landed on its edge.
"well, I'll be damned. guess he's going to the gods," I said.
I picked him up and threw him over my shoulder. then I remembered there were still monsters here.
I snapped my fingers and the monsters died, and the barriers around New York began disappearing. course I used mist to make the people not see our weapons.
"now come on let's go, Hestia," I said cheerfully.
Percy and Annabeth watched behind me and Annabeth began speculating.
"do you think they are a couple," she asked Percy.
"Isn't she like a virgin goddess," Percy said.
we took the elevator and the other demigods also came to Olympus. I threw Luke/Kronos on the floor and grabbed Hestia #2 out of the hearth.
"look how cute you are," I said squishing her cheek.
I put her in front of my Hestia and watched as my Hestia began sizing up her competition.
I leaned on my umbrella and looked at Hestia, and the other confused Hestia. I tapped my foot and a chair was made using the floor so I sat on it.
I pulled out my glasses and began reading Harry Potter waiting for the gods to show up.
show up they did... in full battle armor. I slammed my book shut and looked at the gods while crossing my arms.
"so you guys finally showed up," I said
"How dare you," Zeus began to get angry.
my arms were crossed so I lifted one finger and began releasing some aura, immediately causing Zeus to sweat.
I felt Hestia hit my head with a sandal.
"how many times do I have to tell you not to threaten my brother.... even if it's another version of him," she said as she had another sandal in her head.
"where the hell do you keep getting those," I said rubbing my head.
"Sally gave them to me," she said with a straight face.
"figures that she gives you them. luckily it wasn't the murasame dagger," I said.
"anyways the name is Alice Jackson. technically Percy's twin, not this version though. never the less I caught Kronos here," I said as a blinding light appeared and blinded us.
I saw Luke stab himself with a dagger killing Kronos. ironic isn't.
I watch Annabeth run off to him and while everyone was distracted I appeared on Artemis's throne.
"you're different from my Artemis. she is more confident and doesn't have a scowl all the time," I said as I teleported back to my seat, except my feet were in the air and I was watching the council upside down.
"anyway hera. it's almost time for them to switch and when they do they will be possessed causing a mini-war. to avoid that, kill Octavian," I said dropping hints.
I teleported next to Percy and tapped his forehead and said a barrier so he won't be affected by the memory loss.
"anyways I got school coming and I'm trying to pass," I said cutting space, and Hestia and I left the stunned audience.
"what happened," Percy asked.
"I believe that was you, but female," Annabeth said.
"let me turn you into a girl," an excited Aphrodite said.
sadly Percy wasn't the only one to be turned into a girl that day.

hope you enjoyed it.
also, she could bypass the Styx because it's a curse, and she has curse removal.
