We were all having fun around the campfire at Camp Half-Blood, when Rachel suddenly stiffened, and green smoke spewed forth. I knew that sign, the Oracle was about to speak a prophecy. I just prayed it didn't involve me. Then the Oracle spoke,

"Autumn's Pillar, Clad in Amber

Moves Forward Unto Dawn.

They shall save Olympus,

From Night's merciless grip

And remove the eye's Mist."

Well, at least it didn't call for heroes. Unfortunately, it also said Olympus will need saving. I said, "Well, schist."

My girlfriend Annabeth spoke up, "We need to decode the prophecy before we act prematurely."

Then Malcom, a son of Athena, said, "Night could refer to the Primordial Nyx."

"We met her in that place." I said, a shiver running up my spine.

"Eye's Mist might be The Mist" an Athena camper said.

"So, onto the first two lines, this pillar of autumn will be clad in amber, and moves forward until or to dawn." Annabeth said.

"I say Peter here should be sent to look for this pillar." Mr. D, or Dionysus, said.

I said, "Of course sir." I proceeded to go to my cabin to try to get sleep.

"This is Captain Lane Dagamee of the UNSC Pillar of Autumn II, I know some of you don't like me because of the war, but A. I am only half Sangheili, and I am more in touch with my human side, and B. The War won't happen because we will succeed in preparing humanity for the war. Now for a quote from the Hero Sgt. Avery Junior Johnson about the High Prophet Regret, "Dear, Humanity, we regret being alien bastards, we regret coming to Earth, and we most definably regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy ass fleet!" Now, activate the Forerunner Device." I said, out of breath. Then the world was black.

2 hours later

"Get up, we already have Grif, we don't need another lazy bum." Epsilon, or Church, the shipboard A.I. from ONI Project Freelancer.

"Has anyone ever told you that you have good manners." I asked him.

"No." he replied.

I said "good, 'cause they suck."

He fired back "Fuck you!"

"Church, run a scan to make sure we are in the right time and place." I said to cut off the argument.

"Scanning, complete. This is odd, we are above Earth, but there are anomalies. Like kids with one DNA helix instead of two with higher than average power stores and a type of bronze with an unknown element in it that isn't on Earth. I also detect an invisible city over New York." Church said, very confused.

"Dare, you know anything about this city?" I asked our ONI officer overseeing the mission.

"No, and Osman gave me everything from the time period she had." Dare said, pissed that she doesn't know something.

"Oh, by the way, your love life is screwed up in like, eight different ways." Church said.

"If mine is screwed because I love a Forerunner A.I, yours is fucked up worse because you love a dead person/ghost/Freelancer/AI, so don't you dare say anything about me loving Diana being bad. You aren't in a position to criticize." I said angrily.

"Aww, how sweet of you to defend me. You really are a charmer." Diana, formerly 952 Lasting Promise, said sweetly. She is by all technicalities rampant, but the circumstances of her creation, which even she doesn't know, when she went rampant from lack of companions, she only lost her emotion and protocol restrictors. I've been working on a present for her in a non-networked room.

"I say we take 3 Owl dropships in standard V.I.P. formation with me, the other captains, Diana, 117, and two squads of ODSTs." I said.

"How am I coming?" she asked.

"I made a robotic body in the non-networked room." I replied.

"That's nice of you Lane." She said.

"Caboose said he wants ice cream or he'll become angry, sorry." Church said, only just now recovering from my earlier remarks.

"Okay, we'll get some in New York, so we don't overflow the infirmary." I said.

30 minutes later, within thunderstorm over NYC

This is Pillar of Autumn Control to Owls 410, 411, and 412, you are clear to launch once cloaked. Be careful of the storm, good luck. came over coms. "We are clear, prepare for a bumpy ride, the storm is rough, and sprung up out of nowhere." The pilot yelled to us as the harnesses lowered over us. Bumpy, was an understatement. But we survived and didn't lose our lunch. We passed through an invisible barrier and all the turbulence stopped. And we could see the city, it had a very ancient Greek design.

We landed in a courtyard with a fountain and looked for an obvious governmental building of some sort. We saw it at the top of a mountain, styled like the Parthenon in Greece. The ODSTs formed a circle with Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 at the front, and the captains, Diana, and I in the center. We walked in on a council of 25-foot human-like figures listening to a 17-year-old boy. The Geiger counter went crazy, and then everyone turned to us.

One ODST muttered "Oh, shit."

I was explaining the prophecy nicknamed Autumn's Prophecy, to the Olympian Council. Zeus as usual was burying his head in the sand, and everyone else was in various states of shock and disbelief. Then suddenly the doors opened, and I saw 15 figures. Ten had grey armor and deep blue visors, three looked like captains of ships, one was a beautiful woman (don't tell Annabeth) that seemed somewhat stiff, like a robot, and a 7'2" giant in green armor with a golden visor was at the front. I think I heard someone say shit.

"Who dares interrupt our council session!" Zeus thundered.

The center captain looking one spoke up, and I noticed an extra joint in his leg, and mandibles, "I am Lane Dagamee, Captain of the UNSC Pillar of Autumn II, by extension leader of the mission at hand, the giant soldier is MCPO Sierra-117, the others are Captain Margret Jenam of the UNSC In Amber Clad, Captain Dan Forge of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn, The lovely lady is my wife, Diana, 100,000 year old Forerunner Artificial Intelligence, and the soldiers are Orbital Drop Shock Troopers." He said proudly.
