Its not Unusual
"Oji-san."
Ayako was sitting on the temple roof, now several decades older looking than Percy, red hair starting to streak with grey.
"Yes?" Percy asked, chewing on a piece of blue Dango.
"I want to serve you after I die."
Percy choked. "Ayako. You still have many decades in front of you."
Ayako smiled. "And you have millenia. You and Sharringon will be lonely without me so I want you to make me your servant. Preferably something that can fly. And shoot fire." She wiggled her eyebrows at the not so subtle hint.
"Sharringon and I will be fine! We have each other."
"Sharringon will isolate himself at his shrine and you will go on another bandit killing, dango eating spree. And this time, I won't be there to help annoy you out of it."
Percy didn't really have anything to say to that other than, "Are you sure?"
"Very. You need someone to snap both of you out of your funks when you get into them. Also, I can help you watch over our family. I have my own grandbabies you know."
"Don't remind me." Percy grumbled.
He loved Kimiko's children as much as he loved Kimiko but her children were little hellions, like the Stolls genius for mischief and evasion combined with Annabeth's planning skills, and Clarrisses ability to execute. It was terrifying. The entire city was traumatized. They had even pranked him. He had to use his powers to undo the sheer amount of paint they had used on him.
"Alright." Percy relented. "You don't have a-"
Ayako pulled a scroll from her bag, just like the one with Sharringon's traits on it, and handed it to him.
Percy pretended he wasn't crying as he laughed.

Ayako took to being a dragon about as well as she did everything else, with terrifying swiftness.
It was Sharringon's turn to teach her, repaying those lessons about humans with lessons on how to fight and fly and use the elements to roast pathetic humans.
And then Hanatarou was killed. Struck down by raiders seeing the treasure of the Nemuru Kami Shrine.
All three immortals mourned and Percy made a decision.
"I'm going to shape the land and turn the city into an island city." He told the elders. "I will place barriers and whirlpools between it and the mainland, protecting us from the outside world."
The elders, all Ayako's generation, agreed.
Percy shaped the land, amused at the fact he was pulling a Kyoshi, moved the entire city and 10 miles of surrounding land roughly twenty miles out to sea, crafting whirlpools in his wake.
"How's that for a creation myth?" He muttered, straightening.
He pulled back a bit from the city after that, watching as they took the name Uzumaki, which Ayako gleefully appropriated.
The villiage at the base of the mountain now had several people with dark hair and pale skin running around, and they decided to call themselves a clan after the Uzumaki had and Sharringon suggested Uchiha.
"Like the Uchiwa used to fan the flames of a forge." The dragon said.
"I like it." Ayako grinned in her human form of an 8 year old girl. "Fire is always good."
"Will you take the name as well?" Percy asked only for the dragon to shake his head.
"No. The Uchiha are descended from me, but I am not one of them."
"What did we say about being depressing?" Ayako demanded.
"To...not?"
"Exactly. Now come on. I wanna go terrorize the capital. Oji-san can watch the shrine for a few days."
They were gone so long Percy just put up a barrier so he could go track them down.
To his immense horror, he found them in that village where ever gave all three families powers.
"Did you really give the entire village powers on a drunken denial bender?"
Percy blinked. "I thought you were supposed to be on my side, Sharringon!?"
"Hn."
Percy's scream of incoherent rage didn't really convince anyone that it wasn't the truth.
_______________
Percy left the barrier up after Sharringon asked to go with them.
"The Uchiha can protect it. I want to see the world."
Ayako was ecstatic.
