Chapter 2
Omega sat down on his table with his squad. He looked around the table; he looked at his new family. He smiled at the thought, new family. The family his Masters gave him. The family his former father never gave.
Oh, yeah, did he mention? Omega knows that Poseidon never disowned him, but he himself, cut all of his bonds to his father, the gods, and Camp. Only memories were left.
Memories.
Omega still remembered his eventful past; his first monster, his father claiming him, Capture the Flag, An- the daughter of Athena, his first quest, his best friend, his brother, his everything.
Until the people who he thought would never go against him, his bastard of a father, and that vile daughter of Athena, all broke it for him.
His entire squad understood his past, just as he understood theirs. All of them had similar to same pasts; all of them plotted revenge, all of them wanted blood, just as he was. Soon enough, all together, they were going to keep their oaths.
How about a little introduction about the squad?
Omega is the leader of his squad, Dyname. He is also the best assassin of his Masters, and the commander of the whole army. Dyname is the Greek term for 'might'.
The Dyname squad consists of 8 members, himself included.
The first one is Sonny, a son of Helios. He got there when his mother threw him out after his Father left them, being a god and all. He also went to Camp Half-Blood, then Camp Jupiter, but was thrown out again, this time by the gods. His father had faded back then. That's why he's planning on getting revenge before the Masters found him, and took him in.
At first, Omega wasn't sure to be friends with a guy cockier than Apollo himself, but he learned to get over it. Don't let his handsome looks fool you, because you don't want to get on his bad side. Omega once saw him almost fry a whole squad because one of them insulted Irene, Sonny's ahem, "crush".
Then the one I mentioned beforehand, Irene, a daughter of Iris. Although her name means 'peace', she is very excited to spill some blood on her hands. Her father and stepmother abused her day in and day out. At some point, she couldn't take it anymore, so she ran away. It was then that she found Camp Half-Blood, but her mother wouldn't claim her, so she got lonely. Just like Luke, she doubted the gods even care about their children.
We couldn't convince her to take revenge on them at first, because one, her mother is a peaceful goddess, she wouldn't want to hurt her, but then again, her vengeance side took over. Somehow, she wanted the blood to be colored violet.
Next is Dianne, a daughter of the goddess Artemis. She isn't really a maiden anymore, and from what Dianne told the group, she hated her, and disowned her because of fear for her pride. By then, Omega's respect for Artemis nearly went zero.
Dianne also went to Camp-Half Blood, hoping to find a new home. But years have passed when she entered, all she heard were "Hey look! The klutz!" and "And the son of a b**** passes..." Even from her friends. She almost killed a camper when they said that, giving him fatal injuries. The gods punish her for almost killing her, and what caused her hatred to grow is when Artemis volunteered to punish her herself.
She's very superior with hunting knives and a bow, considering her father is Orion. She is one of the Masters' assassins, so she will be very useful for her skill. And for years, she said she was waiting for the hero their Masters told her, which is Omega, who will lead their revenge. She was longing to bust some ichor-filled heads.
He then met Jedrek, a son of Kratos. People call him weak contrary to his father because he didn't want to hurt people. He started fearing his strength and tried to control it when he accidentally punched their car out of frustration, killing his mother who was inside. He was sent to the orphanage and was discriminated. And just like what the others did, he ran away living in the streets, stealing things to supply his needs. He was being chased by the police when a portal of shadows came out of nowhere and pulled him inside.
And then Omega's best bud, Niko, a son of Nemesis. The perfect addition to our group, he once thought.
Like his half-brother Ethan Nakamura, he hated the gods for ignoring him and his mother. He was three years younger than his brother, and he also wanted to join the Titans just like Ethan, but the latter convinced him to stay. I will avenge us all, I promise Nik, he narrated.
After he was discovered "half-brother of the traitor", the campers began to treat him like trash. That was until he came to the point of making an oath at the age of fifteen, and leaving.
Being a son of Nemesis, revenge is his specialty. He's also very clever and witty. He had an agreement, using his wits of course, with the whole squad that he would be lecturing them for plotting their revenge, and it would be the sweetest revenge you will ever get, he once told them, as long as they pay him. Smart guy, Omega thought, chuckling.
Omega's closest friend, Lily, who he had developed a sisterly relationship with, is a daughter of Pontus, the primordial god of the sea. (is it right?)
She left believing her father did not care about her.
Her friends, who found her weird when she told them she could talk to fish, tease her all the time. Her mother got killed when she was eleven, trying to protect her from the gods, who said, "The girl is too powerful to live."
She swore to avenge her mother, and when the Masters got her, she had a new motivation to swim in a sea of ichor.
And last but not the least, Neal, a son of Nike, the goddess of victory. Omega met him when he was training, and the guy offered to spar with him. He agreed, and having victory on the other side, it was challenging to win, but of course, he still won. Omega added him to the squad saying, "Good luck winning the battle of vengeance."
Neal usually acts insane when he's with Dyname, but serious when it comes to missions. At first, Omega mistaken him as a son of Mania, the goddess of insanity. But that changed when he was informed that Neal means 'champion', and the son of the goddess Nike.
He doesn't care about his dad, or his stepmom, and they don't care about him. His life is simple as that. He does plan to get revenge on some demigods, and Zeus.
Omega's army consists of five squads. (correct me if I'm wrong in the translations)
1) Katastrofe led by Jedrek. The squad specializes in handling any type of weapon: sword, spear, axe; you name it, they know it. Some of them specializes in dual wielding whatever, or fighting with a weapon and a sword, or one weapon alone. The squad focuses on brute strength before Omega came, then changed their ways and listens to Dianoia squad first before attacking. They also learned how to use breaking points from Zoe squad. Made up of 40 people. Katastrofe is Greek for 'destruction'.
2) Stoicheio led by Lily. This squad specializes in using their powers, like Lily having power over water, children of Zeus and Jupiter over air and lightning, and the like. Mostly consisted of the most powerful ones, because of all the discrimination they get from being so powerful. Made up of 25 people. Stoicheio is the Greek term for 'element'.
3) Dianoia led by Niko. This squad has all the great strategists, mostly consisted of children of wisdom gods and goddesses, and others like Niko. They fight insanely like the Katastrofe squad, but not as insanely. They are also good with a bow and traps. Made up of 15 people. Dianoia is the Greek term for 'intellect'.
4) Zoe led by Irene. The squad specializes in healing various types of wounds, no matter how deep, illnesses, and sickness, which is rare among the army. They could heal almost all problems of the body, except for the most fatal ones that only gods can heal. If they heal with their instruments, they could fight with them too. Just imagine Irene throwing a pair of surgical scissors like a throwing knife. They also use healing, power and poison herbs. Made up of 20 people. Zoe is Greek for 'life'.
5) Dyname led by Omega. This squad has all the leaders, and is the most powerful squad in the army. Has the strongest people in the army. Made up of 8 people. Dyname is the Greek term for 'might'.
The entire army is blessed by their Masters. The Masters are three primordial deities, all related to darkness and evil. They have five assassins, Omega, Dianne, one more from the Dianoia squad, and two from the Katastrofe squad.
However, Omega is the only one blessed with wings.
Everyone in the army has the power to summon and command monsters, shadow-travel, bend the shadows to their will, and summon hellfire, and their own powers inherited from their parents, just as Omega has.
He was pulled out of his thoughts of someone punching him on the forearm, or poking in Jedrek's case.
"What?" Omega demanded, trying to look annoyed but failed miserably.
"You've zoned out for ten minutes, and we thought you were losing it so…" Jedrek trailed of at the sight of the assassin's glare.
"Yeah, yeah, geez! We were called to the chamber."
Omega's face morphed into confusion. "Chamber? What, why?"
The son of Kratos shrugged. "Messenger didn't tell. Now come on," he said before walking off to the communication chamber.
Omega followed suit. The Masters wouldn't interrupt lunch unless it was an urgent mission. And if he means lunch, it means ETERNAL PARADISE. Meaning, you could stay eating all you like, as long as it's reasonable to eat so much after intense training.
They got to the chamber and the Dyname members sat down cross legged, a meter away from each other. They closed their eyes and concentrated.
"Dyname, you have a mission," a scruffy voice said.
Mentally, Omega could hear all the screams of excitement coming from his group. He shushed them silently.
"Thank you Omega. This mission, I doubt you will like it at first, but in the end, you will enjoy it," a sharp feminine voice mused.
The other members remained silent, whilst Omega asked, "What is the mission, Masters?"
The Masters didn't speak for a whole two minutes, increasing the excitement and curiosity of the group.
"You aah, need to- Tartarus why don't you just say it?!" the sharp feminine voice demanded loudly.
Omega felt his ears itch. Something bad is going to happen.
"Uhh, yes yes. Dyname squad, you need to go down on land," the scruffy voice, Tartarus, said, his tone getting deeper at the last word. Omega imagined his Master wincing, as if preparing for a chaotic response.
Omega and his squad were going down. On land. This has to be in some connection to the gods and their petty little wars. They banished their hero, and now they need help. Pathetic.
They wouldn't make me go down there, he thought angrily. Not unless I get my revenge.
Yes, revenge. "And ah... It's an order," he croaked.
He guessed right. He proved that his Master was always right.
"WHAT?!"
All right guys, that's it for now. I tried to make it longer, and so I managed about 2000 words. I don't know if the last bit made sense, but yeah. I'm going to wait up to 5 more reviews before I continue soo..
I hope you like it! Review!
Enjoy reading, peeps! -aLazyButSmartFanPJO
