My brain quickly set up a tragedy.
After a hard battle [with Gaia or another fight], Percy is badly, almost fatally wounded, but they still try to save him.
Will is pale as death and almost faints, but still presses his sparkling gold palm to Percy's wound.
Jason sits on his knees next to him, pressing Percy's palm to his chest and constantly talks to him, reminding him of their common dreams and hopes, begging him to hold on.
Tears flow from his eyes like a river, and his voice breaks.their friends crowded around in a semicircle — Annabeth is sitting on her knees and banging her fist on the ground, she had to come up with a better plan so that the fish brain would not have to go into trouble again, Piper comforts her by pressing the girl's head to her chest, although she herself is crying.
Frank hugs a crying Hazel, who repeats like a mantra that Percy is strong and will definitely get out, although his nose is red and salt burns his eyes, Poseidon's son was an older brother and friend for them.
Leo stands to the side with his head bowed low, the lenses of tears dripping onto the ground, if he were faster or stronger, or just more useful.
Nico is sitting next to Will, looking incredulously at Percy's fading soul, it just can't be that Percy Jackson died like that…
But when Percy's heart almost stops, his eyes close, and his breathing subsides, an unexpected happens…
His body turns into water, pure azure-blue ocean water, the contours of the figure, eyes and hair are outlined in bright white light.
At first, the guys naively rejoice, believing that this is either Poseidon's blessing, healing Percy and saving his life, or some special trick of Poseidon's child…
Percy gets to his feet as if nothing had happened and looks into the distance, not paying attention to anyone.
When a joyful Jason tries to hug him, he falls through him, soaking his hair and clothes, as if he walked through a waterfall, and did not try to hug his beloved guy…
Then Annabeth recovered from the shock, she smiles reassuringly at Percy and promises him in an excited voice that they will come up with something, return him to normal.
Percy uncomprehendingly raises a white sparkling eyebrow and in a strange deep soft voice, rising and falling like a sea wave, asks what a normal state means, he is already at his best.
surprise and silence hang for a while, only Hazel started babbling about "they will accept anyone Percy" and "they will definitely learn to live with him like that"…
Then suddenly the clouds in the sky part and the sun covers the sea surface with gold and Percy turns his head to him.
"Father," he says tenderly and entranced, "he's calling me, I have to go home...
his voice is so strong and caring, I'll be fine there.
"Percy turns to the ocean and moves towards it with confident, even steps, swaying slightly, like an azure-white waterfall.
out of surprise, the guys don't even try to stop him, all except Jason, he quickly gets to his feet and runs after him.Chiron joins him quite unexpectedly.
They catch up with Percy, Chiron just stands aside, watching Jackson with an expression of heavy sadness on his face, and Jason begs him at all costs to remember who he is and not give up, Percy smiles at him tenderly and says to the son of Jupiter; "I am Percy, I am a child of the sea, I am one with the ocean.
"Percy kisses Jason, leaving bitter salt on his lips and a mute promise to remember and love him.
Percy goes into the water turning into not even a ghost, but just a white light.
Jason falls to his knees and sobs.
Chiron comes up to him and puts a fatherly hand on his shoulder.
This is definitely something that should belong to AO3 museum and not my poorly managed askbox excuse ME I have to stay in the corner and cry for the next 3 hours why must you hurt me in this way.
