Chapter 7: Demons of Chaos

"As you all know there is a Demon on Earth 16 calling himself Klarion. Your mission is to stop him and keep him to quite using Chaos name for evil." End was saying as he stood next to his other two brothers.

"You can count on us." I said bowing in a sign of respect.

"Percy wait a minute, everyone else pack and meet at the ship in 10." Order said as he fixed his white, almost cloudy, outfit.

Once everyone of my team was out I tilted my head at my patrons, "What is it my lords?" I asked even though I knew they didn't really like the title.

"Percy you still haven't used your full potential of power?" Chaos said but it sounded almost like a question as I shifted uneasily.

"While I appreciate the power to a degree, I don't like the idea that I can basically create or undo something with a snap of my finger." I said honestly. It was something that I was given being the champions of the creators of the universe, I could literally take something out of existence or place something.

"We can talk more about that later, but it's a useful tool in case you find yourself in a situation and need a weapon or escape. With little practice if you ever need it, it'll be difficult and you're find yourself tired." End said

"In other terms, we're worried about what might happen if you ever need that skill." Order said as he placed a hand on my shoulder.

I looked at them in the eye and sighed, "We can start working on it after the mission." I said disliking it but complied to what they were saying.

"That's all we ask for." Chaos said giving me a smile which I returned but it wasn't large or very meaningful, "I need to go pack." I said and waited for their dismissal.

When it was given I made my way out of the conference room and started back to my room. As I rounded the corner Luke was suddenly by my side, "So what was that about?" he asked curiously.

I waved my hand dismissively, "It's nothing to worry about promise." I said but there was a nagging in the back of my head debating the endless results of things-that-could-go-wrong moments.

"I've seen that look way too many times to know that you're worrying about it, which means I'm worrying about it. So spill." Luke said crossing his arms and stopping in the hallway making me stop as well.

"I'll tell you when we get to my room." I muttered and turned down another hallway, heading toward my room.

Luke huffed and raced after me, making me having to then race him to my room.

We ended up at my room in no time as I started to put a few things in the magical backpack we sometimes take on missions.

"So spill." Luke said as he flopped onto my blue covered bed like it was his own.

I rolled my eyes at him and carefully said, "They want me to do some training that I've been avoiding for a while." I said honestly but also made it sound like it wasn't a big deal.

But from the look of the frown that was on Luke's face he didn't exactly believe me, "Last I checked the only training you still need to do it...oh" Luke said finally letting that feeling and thought sink in as he sat up straighter and closer to the edge of the bed, "So they're going to help you with creating and erasing items from existence. I'm kinda jealous." Luke said jokingly making me feel a bit better but at the same time want to glare at him.

"This is serious. Someone could be very hurt and what if the thing I create is somehow evil and wants to kill us all." I said worried.

"Or, what if the thing you create or erase saves our lives. Look I'm not saying something could go wrong. I'm saying that if you don't control and master it something definitely will go wrong and then you wouldn't know how to erase it then." Luke said with a shrug. I was lost in thought with what he said and found that he was right.

Sighing but feeling grateful, I swung the backpack on my bag, "Sometimes you don't act all stupid and when you do I could kiss you. Or kill you depending on the situation." I said shrugging and making my way toward the door ignoring Luke's smug grin along with this line of hope but hopelessness.

"I wish you would kiss me." I heard Luke mutter but decided to file it away for later and talk to him about it after the mission. Clearly we needed to talk because I couldn't tell if he was joking or not.

Sticking my head back into the room and acted as if I didn't hear him I grinned and said, "Race you to the ship?" I offered

Luke just smirked, stood beside the bed, let out a evil grin and started to race right pace me. Grinning I took down after him also.

As we slowed down near the ship I saw that the others were already there, Selina talking to Bianca while Beck's arm was around her shoulders as he talked to Michael. I watched with a smirk as Bianca and Michael Yew eye's sometimes drifted from designated conversations to each other.

"How long before they get together?" I asked Luke

"3 days." Luke said instantly

"Wanna bet?" I asked with a devilish smile.

"10 dollars, if they get together before 3 days I win, after two days you win. If they aren't together by the end of the week we are listing Selina's help." Luke said as we shook on it

"How do you think Nico would react to his sister being technically alive?" I asked watching Bianca talk enthusiastically with Selina.

"I've never actually met or talked to Nico. When he came to camp I was..." Luke trailed off with regret as I placed a hand on his shoulder, "That part of our life is over remember, come on. We have a demon of Chaos to catch." I said grinning and Luke's frown turned to a partial excited grin.

I know there wasn't actually Justice League or Young Justice, but there will be next chapter so hold on tight.
