The crystal did not show any image to Percy this time and instead violet lines simply ran through it like before.
"I cannot give you any gifts Perseus, I have not the power to do so. But I can give you a piece of advice," the being smiled at Percy, "love comes in many forms and in many sources. Do not try to stick to only one path. Look at all, and open your eyes to the feeling of others. After all, you have plenty of love to go around."
Percy blushed at the comment but said nothing. The violet light then moved to the side and Percy realised that all the entities now stood behind him in order of appearances. Percy turned around and faced them, "is this it? Is the flashbacks scene over?"
Some of the entities chuckled in amusement while Ion spoke up, "no there are two more entities you have to meet."
Just as I said that the darkness suddenly drew. Just then the spotlight on Percy exploded outwards burning like fire. The top began white while the bottom became black. Percy felt his whole world turn sideways as the black and white slowly moved from the top to the side.
Suddenly two figures appeared out of the two lights. Out of the darkness came a zombies figure in black robes with a sytch by his side. And out of the white light came a thin wiry figure with six angle wings and a halo on top.
"Greeting human," the black entity spoke, "I am Necron, the embodiment of death. I represent the death of all, even the immortal."
"And I am the Entity," the figure in white spoke, "the being responsible for all life in the universe."
"You are the first human to have passed our test," Necron spoke.
"The first to finish the task of all nine entities," the Entity spoke, "many have tried, and only few have even succeeded in completing the trail of even one entity."
"You have mastered death by embracing it," Necron spoke as the crystal turned black showing Percy the image of his dead body before the nuclear bomb exploded.
"And you have sacrificed all to preserve life," the Entity spoke as the crystal changed to white, but the image stayed the same.
"For your accomplishment I give you this," Necron spoke as he summoned a black ball that disappears into Percy, "the power to call anyone dead back to life, if they were reincarnated then you will be presented with a copy of their soul. They will appear in their natural bodies in any form you wish for. But be warned they may only stay for a limited time."
"And I give you this," the Entity spoke, summoning a white box, "you will need this in the future. For now keep it safe."
Percy bowed to them both, "thank you."
The entities nodded and spoke together, "remember, there is no life without death and no death without life."
The entities then all began speaking at once, "you, pilgrim of Greece, have completed the tasks of the soul. You have reforged yourself into a better you. Go now and remember what you have learnt. And take with you our gifts and strength."
The crystal in front of Percy went blank as suddenly white and black lines grew along it as well. The crystal then started to vibrate violently as Percy grabbed it with both hands. He held onto it tightly and didn't' let go.
"Now go Perseus Jackson!" the more they spoke the more violently the crystal shock, "go fulfill your destiny!"
The crystal exploded outwards as suddenly everything went white.
Outside;
"Guys!" Thalia shouted alerting the gathered demigods. They all turned and saw Percy's prone body moving. The barrier around him slowly disappeared as the cauldron began to glow bright white.
Suddenly a bright pillar of light exploded outwards covering Percy in it and blasting everyone around to their backs.
"What the hell is going on?!" Michael shouted out.
"I don't know!" Annabeth shouted back.
The pillar of light slowly disappeared into nothing leaving behind the glowing form of Percy Jackson. He glowed like white hot metal, his eyes shined green as the rest of his body slowly turned back to normal. On his right stood a brand new weapon.
It was a bright blue trident with white lines going along it's body. Below the prongs was a big white circle with three lines going from it towards the three prongs. Below the three blades were two large blades protruding outwards with a slight upwards curve. The trident was as big as Percy was tall and the body was covered with leather for a good grip.

'Wave rider,' Percy thought, 'so that's your name.'
He turned to his new weapon and spun it with one hand. The trident slowly collapsed in on itself as the three blades of the tridents turned into water. The body of the trident shrunk down to a hand and a half grip. The two curved blades along the side of the trident bent towards the center, tacking on the form of a greek leaf blade with a split down the middle that was covered with water.
