"He's been silent for days, and for once I think I understand why. We're Vikings Artemis, you've had me resting for too long. I need to feel a rush, the adrenaline from a good fight." Perseus told her as he got up defiantly from their huge bed.

Artemis pouted slightly, she still thought that he should be resting, and they didn't know how Percy was going to naturally regain his power, they just seemed to come and go. Just yesterday in their walk through the city he had accidentally turned Ragnar's axe into jelly and created a living, breathing horse made entirely out of diamonds. He was then taken over by Armageddon who had proceeded to name it 'Butt Stallion'.

"What if it isn't that? What if he'd just changing as much as you? Who knows, maybe you'll both become serious... Hmm, I don't like the sound of that, I-" Artemis was working herself into a state, so Percy did the one thing that he knew he could do without making the situation any worse. He took her hands in his and brought his face close enough to push his lips into hers. She melted into them as the kiss elongated itself into something heavier.

A slight flash from the edge of the room broke them apart. "Apollo? How the hell did you get into Valhalla? You're not a Viking OR Dead." Percy questioned with a raised eyebrow. Apollo seemed to have only just noticed them.

He took his sunglasses off and looked around in confusion. "That's funny, I swear I was just in Madrid... Percy? Arty? Did you summon me?" He asked them seriously. It was never a good situation when APOLLO was the serious one.

There was a moment of understanding from Percy before he answered the sun god, "Possibly. I'm not in control of my powers at the moment and we also don't know WHAT my powers are. We know that Armageddon still holds the domain of the apocalypse because he gained that through our raw power." Percy told him with a slight smile.

It didn't matter that they were about to be married, it was still awkward to be caught kissing by her brother. "Oh right, well, do you have enough control to send me back? It would seem that I'm pretty powerless here because of the higher entities around here. Your dad and step mother, you and Arty." Apollo pointed out.

"He can't, I can." Artemis told him quickly, sensing a haiku around the corner. She clicked her fingers and Apollo had time for one last grin of his pearly whites before he left in a blaze of gold.

"Right, where were we?" Artemis asked, pulling Percy by the back of the neck, but this time she was interrupted by something that even she had no power over.

"Have I come at a bad time?" A decidedly female voice asked out with a feigned innocence. Percy sighed before looking over at Chaos.

"You know full well that it's a bad time... Milady?" Percy smiled, bowing at Chaos.

"I told you to stop bowing. You are my champion, not a mortal. Not that they would be able to comprehend my existence but hey ho. I didn't come to chat, I actually came to ask you a favor Perseus." Chaos told him evenly. He preferred it when people were straightforward and Chaos respected that.

"Ask of me what you will and I will do everything in my power to accomplish it." He told her with a shrug. It was true after all.

"I believe that I've figured out what ails us all." She told him. Her eyes glowed a vibrant purple as vapors left them and slowly floated over to Percy's own sea green orbs. Within moments he understood what must be done. Chaos had given him all of her updated knowledge, something that helped him to greatly understand what he needed to do.

"I cannot speak for him for he is by technicality, a god, but I will summon him." Percy spoke softly as he focused for a second. Heimdallr stepped through the door to their bedroom and bowed to each and every god in the room.

"I thought I told you to stop doing that." Percy scowled.

"Ha, now you know how that feels." Chaos laughed immaturely.

"Sire?" Heimdallr asked curiously.

"There is a rising threat my old friend. Something which could prove to be fatal even to Chaos in her weakened state. The other sibling of creation, the opposite if you will. His name is Abaddon, he is the one who sent the horsemen after me." Percy worded it carefully, he didn't want it to seem like he was insinuating weakness in Heimdallr, or a failure to watch over the kingdoms.

"After all is said and done I will be the right hand of Chaos. The one that strikes out at her enemies, but she will need a left, someone to defend her from Abaddon. I could only think of one so devoted, the choice is entirely up to you. Fear not old friend, once this last conflict is dealt with I would welcome you back to guard the realms once more." Percy explained.

It took no hesitation as Artemis had expected, "I would be honored to guard you with my every fiber of existence." Heimdallr spoke true before kneeling in front of Chaos.

"To the Lady of whom we all stem from. I will serve you until we have defeated these evils or until you relinquish me of my duties, this I swear on the Allfather." Heimdallr announced. There was a great power in his words. Chaos smiled and nodded before Heimdallr walked out of the door. It was then that Percy noticed that his presence had left the realm. He used doorways as a form of teleportation.

"Right, now that our business is done, there are a few things I should remind you of. Kronos is still waiting for Armageddon to return, you no longer require the aid of the titans to fell Armageddon but you did make a promise, so you should get back to freeing the titans when you can. Artemis you need to figure out what you're doing with the hunt, refreshing your oath to be down a slightly different path or disbanding it and incorporating it into your new role as queen of Asgard." Chaos almost whispered. It was a truly tragic thing but given the option to start over from scratch, Artemis would still go straight for Percy, knowing what she knew now.

"Anything else we've missed?"

"Umm... Yeah, ignore that dragon egg for now, it won't do any good to stare at it and hope that it hatches. It will happen when it happens. Other than that I don't think that there's anything else that you need to be doing." Chaos told them wistfully.

"Don't thing. Aren't you omnipotent?" Percy raised an eyebrow.

"Aren't you?" Chaos replied with an equally raised eyebrow. Since giving him her knowledge for the second time, he was as good as omnipotent.

"Fair play. We'll get right to that, enjoy your guardian." Percy smirked before grabbing Artemis by the hand and flashing them away.
