A/N: I'm BACKKKKKKKKKK
I do not own PJO
One month into building the Argo II
"Hey, Leo!" I shouted over the sounds of drills and hammers. "It's training time."
"Ok, I'll be right down." He yelled back to me as he pulled off his tool belt and jogged over.
You see, ever since Leo came back from his quest to free Hera, we had become friends, since we both had strange powers from Hephaestus. So everyday after we work on the Argo for a little, we train our powers against each other. Speaking of the Argo, it was coming along great for a bunch of people who had a curse on them. Things had only gone wrong a couple of times, where as soon as we got something important together, it fell apart.
As we walked into the arena and took stance, I felt a chill go through my body, and by the looks of it, so could Leo. I calmed my nerves, as Leo taught me, and began to summon energy into my hands. I looked down at my hands, but nothing was there. I tried to concentrate harder but I couldn't summon any of my power.
"Hey, Leo?" I panicked. "My powers ain't working bruh!"
Leo looked at his hands expecting his powers to work, but they didn't.
"Neither are mine." He responded.
I kept staring at my hands, trying to gather my energy to summon my powers. Suddenly, I was interrupted by the sounds of about a million things falling apart, followed by the curses of angry campers. I looked at Leo and we took off in the direction of the Argo, expecting the worst. And that's what we got.
Everything on the Argo that we had already built was destroyed.
"What in the Hades happened here?" Leo and I both said at the same time.
Nyssa walked up to us and began to speak for everyone.
"It's like all our knowledge and abilities over building, and technology, just disappeared." She confessed to us.
As she was ready to say something else, Rachel stumbled towards Leo and I. Green smoke began to spew from her mouth and she spoke:
"The sons of Bunker Nine must scour the lands
To return the fire to the masters' hands
Campers and god(s) must endure
To return the power to Hephaestus' forge
A god's reign to be paused
To continue when the evil falls."
After the mist cleared, Rachel fell. I quickly caught her and held her. The only thing going through my head, was Not again.
