Powerful winds smashed monsters to the ground. The swirling water vapor blinded them, and the hurricane itself? Well, lets just say there is a trail of monster dust on the ground.
Percy panted as he almost stumbled from fatigue. The hurricanes were effective, but they took to much energy. He looked around to see if anyone was doing better than him.
Lightning crackled and blasted from Jason's gold javelin. Sometimes, that made Percy almost wish for Jupiter as a father. Almost. And only because of the powers.
As more Karpoi disintegrated, leaving fruity pebbles behind, Piper fought like a demon. After the war, she had received the other horn of the river god from Hercules. Now she was holding an identical cornucopia which she wielded in a scary way while she remembered how to battle with it. More harpy feathers adorned her hair as bananas knocked an Earthborn to the ground. Recently, Leo brought Katoptris and the Boread's sword to Hephaestus, who smelted the 2 weapons to make a sword. This one could still tell the future and sometimes summon icy wind.
Above, a volley of Archimedes Spheres smashed through ranks of monsters from Leo. Dracaenae fell on their slithery sides. Gryphons rose only to be blasted into bits. Cyclops charged blindly and waved their clubs at the flying ship, and they were cut down as Hazel sped by on Arion. Behind her, Frank followed her as a jaguar, trying to keep up to the world's fastest horse. As soon as Arion left him in the dust, he sighed and turned into a bear and mauled a few monsters.
Annabeth...oh Annabeth. The warrior princess for Percy. She looked amazing with her bronze dagger strapped onto her belt and her backpack on as well. Hazel had summoned the dagger inside the bag from Tartarus, and the bag lifted up with the knife and the computer, all safe and sound. Annabeth sidestepped a Minotaur like a matador and with 2 swift strokes, decapitated it. If only Percy's battle with it had happened that quick.
Percy looked up ahead and his expression turned grim. The hurricane had died down by now and smoke spiraled from the Argo III. Annabeth and the others turned around and flashed a little button on their shirts at each other. There were too many of them! It was Reyna's Christmas present to everyone which was kind of a joke they didn't understand but they wore it anyway. Nico and Hedge seemed to get it.
Leo landed from the sky in a personal helicopter jacket, modified. He had tears in his eyes. "Festus...this is the third time I failed him..."
"Don't worry Leo, we'll get him anyway." Piper assured. "Now, we need to fight them and..."
"Remember me?" A miniature blizzard surrounded only Piper and she was stuck in a block of ice.
"Khione!" Leo and Jason growled. Leo instantly started lobbing fireballs, and Frank didn't even flinch. Jason looked like he was charging for a lightning bolt. After all, he wasn't a battery. Or Pikachu. (Sorry, he had listened to Got to Kill Them All to much, which was Hedge's modified song that he sang over and over again.)
Khione simply disappeared and all their feet were stuck under blocks of ice, except Hazel who was dueling Kelli and her friends. Percy summoned his will and water melted on everyone except Piper. Khione put extra magic on her. As Jason stayed behind to try to try to help thaw her out, the monster mob charged.
"Dude. These were new shoes!" complained Leo pointing at the melted shoes as they ran towards the charging army.
"Don't worry. Nike can supply more."
"RARGHHHHRR." Earthborns threw a volley of rocks. Flaming arrows flew from the sky. Percy raised his hand and could only barely summon a small geyser that blew the rocks off course and doused the arrows. The hurricane had drained him. Leo twirled his Wii stick. As the Argo III wreckage bellowed "Hey it's Mario!", spikes impaled from the ground. He had only a few more toys before they ran out. Annabeth dueled harpies when her knife and sword were shot clean out of her hands. Sciron and Molly the ferocious turtle have returned. Hazel was suddenly knocked off Arion, and skeleton warriors pinned her down, each holding a police baton. Frank ran to rescue her but was shot by a manticore. Although it wouldn't kill, it could leave grown men writhing on the ground in pain. The Nemean Lion pounced, glaring at Percy. Percy ran up to meet it, but was then turned into a gerbil. Annabeth yelled and the lion turned to her.
Leo suddenly threw his last grenade. The skeletons all jumped back at the explosion of popcorn, and Hazel used her dark magic to destroy them. Percy was changed back and seemed to recover some energy as gerbils were really energetic. Hazel ran to Frank while Percy distracted the manticore. As Skiron loaded his pistol at Jason, a giant goldfish smacked the back of his head and he fell and had the same fate of being eaten by Molly. 3 times and counting.
When Frank turned back, more monsters appeared. Sonny the chihuahua yipped and Arion trampled it. The battle started looking like they were winning, then losing, then winning...
Meanwhile, Percy had managed to start a fight between Molly and the Nemean lion. He then summoned a vortex and a sea serpent hissed. Jason still loyally stood on guard in front of Piper and fired lightning at approaching monsters.
That was when the tide turned and stayed turned.
The ground shook. Clay covered ghosts and ogres appeared from the ground. The monster troops seemed endless. Everyone was tired.
Hazel raised her spatha and reluctantly ran it through 2 arais.
"Ah the curse of Alyconeus, you shall be parted from your strongest tool or friend, one who helps you live."
Hazel screamed as Arion disappeared. The other arai spoke before disintegrating:
"You have received the curse of Stheno and Euryale. I hope you enjoy the poisonous wiener thingies." Hazel turned a sick shade of green and the arai disappeared with a soft hiss.
Meanwhile Frank was fighting as a lion. Kampe appeared, "Hope you enjoy being dead." and lashed out her fiery whips. Frank fell to the ground, burning, and Kampe snarled before turning away.
As Frank and Hazel slowly died together, locked in a kiss. Diamonds, rubies, and sapphires littered around them in a heart shape. Then, Leo screamed as Medusa stared directly at the fire he was shooting.
"Stone always trumps the fire." Leo turned into a statue, with his Archimedes sphere in one hand, and a stone fireball in the other. He had crayon drawing of the Argo II tucked into his belt and a picture of his mother and Calypso as well.
Jason and Piper were fighting the death pig. Lightning ricocheted off it's hide and it was too angry to be charmspeaked.
"SCREET!" The 2 tusks smashed through both of them, and they were holding hands as they were killed. Jason's coin fell to the ground and rattled with Piper's knife lying on top of it.
Monsters wavered to Percy and Annabeth who were trying to fight like they did in Tartarus: A weak and tired Percy with a defenseless Annabeth. Arachne fired silk, slowing them both down. Eilodons possessed them both and made them beat up each other. They both sobbed but knew it was their time. They had enjoyed life together in New Rome/Camp Half-Bloods adult program. They both looked at each other as Annabeth slapped Percy unwillingly.
"I love you wise girl."
"You too, Seaweed Brain. Percabeth forever."
With that, they both struck each other at the same time, killing each other. All the monsters turned around and the eilodons popped out of their hosts, and turned away.
The 7 were dead.
