Percy pov:
Nico, Thalia (Who recently quit the hunters), Annabeth, Leo, and I were walking in the park. Chiron had given everyone some time to do whatever they wanted not only because of the fact we won the war against Gaea, but also since the person we thought died came back during the middle of his funeral on fire yelling and scaring the living crap out of everyone.
Flashback
We were about to burn Leo's shroud, which he would have loved if he were here, when the door to the Hephaestus cabin and a camper that was on fire came running through. I couldn't see who it was through the flame, but when he started yelling, everyone gasped. It was a voice we all knew, loved, and missed. It was Leo. But it couldn't be, even if he survived the explosion, with how high up he was the water might as well have been concrete.
"The super supreme McShizzel is back boys!" He yelled. He then made it to the front of the group before putting out the fire and we could see he had a huge grin on his face.
"IIIIIIII'M BAAAAAAAACK!" He said in a creepy girl voice.
Everybody just stood there stunned, we thought he was dead and he just came running out of his cabin completely unharmed and on fire.
"Wow, no 'welcome back' or 'good to see you'? I'm hurt." He said. Next thing he knew, about half the camp was on top of him.
End Flashback
He also brought Calypso which made me explain that I thought she had been free for months.
"Guys." I said sounding and looking as serious as possible.
"Yeah Percy?" They asked.
"I have been hiding something from you." I stated. They all stopped walking and looked at me.
"What is it." Annabeth asked.
"I could really go for some dam French fries." I said smiling. Everyone but Nico and Leo burst out laughing while Nico and Leo looked at us like we were crazy.
"How about a dam milkshake?" Annabeth asked.
"Lets not forget the dam hamburgers!" Thalia said. By this time we were howling with laughter and even Leo and Nico smiled.
Leo saw this and smiled even more.
"Nico. Why are you smiling? Nico and smile never meet. Something must be wrong." He said. I was crying because of how hard I was laughing and could just barely get enough air. Nico laughed a little at this and Leo's grin grew wider.
"Who are you are what did you do with Nico?!" He yelled. They both started laughing which meant every demigod in the park was laughing. No one noticed us since we were next to a pond in the woods. The pond was creating a mist which made a rainbow. Leo looked at it and seemed to get an idea.
He pulled out a drachma and tossed it into the rainbow.
"Oh Iris, goddess of the rainbow. Please accept my offering. Show me Chiron, Camp Half-Blood." He said, still laughing. I'd barely registered the words and when I did I started laughing harder. A few seconds later it showed Chiron and the campers who stayed at camp or were there at the time. They looked stunned at what they were looking at, I would be too if I saw Death Breath laughing other than the fact that I couldn't stop laughing.
"Guys, its a very rare sighting. Its called Death Boy laughing. Lets be very quiet as not to disturb the beautiful creatures, as that might ruin the moment before someone can get the camera." I heard Jason say.
"Shut... Up..." Nico got out in-between laughter.
"Yeah, yeah Death Breath." Jason said.
"How is this possible?" I heard Grover ask.
"Joke... Quest to save Annabeth and Artemis..." I said in-between laughter and he got a look of realization and happiness but at the same time sadness.
"Also when I saw him smile I made a few jokes about how Nico never smiles."
After a few minutes of teasing and several pictures being taken we had finally stopped laughing and were standing.
Suddenly, a look of fear passed over the campers.
"Look out!" Jason yelled. (He was staying at Camp Half-Blood for awhile.)
I spun around in time to see this not so werewolf person remove a needle from Leo's neck and see him pass out before I was engaged in a battle with a different not so werewolf thing. I got out Riptide but was surprised to see that it passed right through the creature. I tried punching it and was satisfied to see that it worked. Out of the corner of my eye I saw them get Nico and Thalia sedated leaving only me, Annabeth, and the campers watching through the IM, which was loosing connection. I looked at Annabeth and she looked at me. We looked in each others eyes and quickly made a plan. After we figured out what to do we nodded and went back to fighting our opponents. This only cost us about a second of fighting, giving our opponents a little more of a advantage, but I thought it was worth it.
Annabeth and I both went back from our opponents about ten feet, then as they charged us we jumped out of the way, causing them to run forward a little more. We both then jumped onto their backs and steered them to look towards each other, then in their attempts to get us off we made them slam into each other, each knocking the other out.
Two down, who knows how many to go.
Just when I was about to jump on another one's back, Annabeth got sedated.
"Annabeth!" I yelled. I couldn't get to her since the rest of the not so werewolves were focused on me. The connection to the IM went, but at the same time it gave me an opportunity. I felt a tug in my gut, and the next thing I knew, I was surrounded by water. The not so werewolves looked like they were expecting that though. One reached into my water bubble and grabbed me and as soon as I was out, another sedated me.
A Few Hours Later (You know where if you have read Maximum Ride)
I woke up in a world of pain that also happened to be inside a dog cage. I groaned as I sat up and looked around to see all the other demigods looking at me with worried eyes.
"What happened?" I asked.
The worry in their eyes seemed to lessen and grow at the same time.
"You don't remember? We were attacked." Annabeth said. It all came rushing back to me. The jokes, the not so werewolves, the sedatives. Everything.
"I remember now. You guys alright?" I asked.
"Really Fish Face? Yes, we're fine, we were more worried about you." Thalia said.
"Why? What happened?"
"We woke up about an hour ago. You still hadn't woken up and when we thought you were about to wake up, they took you somewhere and you came back pale, sweaty, looking like you were in pain, and unconscious. They also took us out and stabbed us with needles to the point where we were in a lot of pain, but you still hadn't woken up by the time they were done with the rest of us." Nico said. He had just barely finished speaking when the door flew open. Two of the not so werewolves came over to my cage, opened it, and threw me on the ground a few feet away from them, causing a lot of pain to my already sore bones.
Although I was in pain, I quickly got to my feet and tried to fight them, but that attempt quickly failed when electricity flowed through my body, the source was somewhere on my neck. I had learned from Thalia to not struggle unless you want more pain, but this was different. While Thalia did natural lightning, this was machine powered so it had a different feel to it. It was more painful. I cried out as I grabbed whatever was causing the electricity and after a few seconds it stopped. I felt another necklace on my neck, but when I felt it more carefully I found out it was a shock collar.
They dragged me down some hallways and into a lab like room where I was greeted by a lady Just imagine Patricia Clarkson as Ava in The Maze Runner who was smiling. It wasn't a good one though, it was like the one that Luke had when he tried to kill me with a scorpion.
The not so werewolves forced me into the a chair that looked like a dentists chair before strapping me in. The lady then used one of those wipes doctors would use before giving you a shot on my arm. After she was done she and the not so werewolves spoke before some other people came in with a huge needle on a tray.
"Okay Percy, this might hurt, just try not to scream too much." She said before putting the needle in my arm and injecting it. At first I didn't feel anything, then it felt like I had bathed in the Styx then held up the sky. I passed out.
