Leo's POV:

I just stood there, looking at the lifeless body of Peter, the black liquid slowly oozing out of him.

The scent of the liquid filled the air and I was taken back by the smell.

"Oil?" I said out loud and leaned over Peter and the overwhelming scent of oil filled my nose.

"What happened to you?" I said as I shook my head in dismay.

All of a sudden I heard a clicking sound, I turned and saw Peter started to move.

"Peter!" I said happily and started toward him until he opened his eyes.

They were solid bronze.

He started toward me but he moved like a machine.

"Peter? Peter is that you?" I asked as he grabbed me and I felt the cold metallic feeling of metal underneath his skin.

Peters skin started turning brown until he was a dark copper.

I grabbed his arms that were starting to wrap around my neck.

Suddenly my hands heated up and Peter's arm slowly started to melt.

"P-P-Peter!" I said as I started to black out from no oxygen.

Then a sword came down from nowhere and Peter's head was gone.

Sparks shot from his neck and he started flailing around wildly until he fell to the ground and he stopped moving. The clicking sound had stopped too.

I looked up and saw a very beat up Jason standing there.

"What...What happened?" Jason asked panting and very tired as he dropped his sword and fell to his knees.

I ran helped him into a bed "What happened? Where are the others?!" I asked as I grabbed some Ambrosia and Nectar.

Jason's cuts and bruises started healing and he sighed in relief and put his head down.

"Some...things attacked us and their leader punched me so hard I landed like half a mile away! They have the others!" Jason said as his energy returned.

"What are we going to do?" I asked the thought of all of my friends in danger really pissed me off.

"Whoo...It is hot in here calm down man!" Jason said as he started sweating.

Rage was filling inside me all of my friends were in danger Peter was dead, and so was Reyna for all we knew.

I started hearing the clicking sound again but this time I was not scared.

I turned and blasted a wall of flame right at Peters approaching decapitated body.

I may have screamed in rage as I fired wave after waves of flame and eventually I stopped and I saw the night sky from the hole I burned into the wall.

We both looked down and saw a puddle of bronze on the ground all that was left was Peters old sword, Frostbite.

Jason limped over and picked up his old friends sword.

"Those bastards! They took him away and for all we know they killed Reyna the same way!" Jason said with tears.

"Jason, I'm so sorry but we can't bring him back. We can however brutally murder the guys that did this and save our friends." I said as I took Frostbite and sheathed it to my tool belt.

Jason nodded until he realized what just happened "You burned him!" he said shocked.

"Yeah so? I have fire powers Sparky." I said with a smirk.

"But with these...things our powers are suppressed I couldn't fly, Frank couldn't transform, Annabeth isn't even smart anymore!" Jason explained.

"But...I used my powers! and he was a full automaton. How could I have done that?" I asked.

Jason thought for a moment " Before I blacked out I heard them say something about Vulcan. I think with the bronze machines they worship him or something and as a son of Vulcan or Hephaestus you are kinda immune to the effects I guess."

I nodded still confused but we walked out of the tent but we kept our eye on it in case Peter made another appearance but nothing happened.

"Come on we went this way just follow me and stay close!" Jason said.

Then we dove into the forest.

Group POV:

The men dragged everyone through the forest until they thought their feet were going to bleed, the men however did not stop their pace for a single second.

Then the leader stopped at a large cliff and they all stopped.

Their leader, Triston they had said, grabbed a lever that was invisible until you grabbed it and yanked it down.

"Throw them in the jail with that girl we nabbed the other day except for her!" Triston said and pointed at Piper.

The Disciples grabbed Piper and dragged her away while the others were led down a flight of stairs and into a dungeon like room where they were shackled to the wall by Imperial Gold shackles.

They were left there and then a few other Disciples walked in carrying Reyna and shackled her to the wall.

"Hi Reyna." Percy said casually.

Reyna looked up and she had a black eye and her lip was cut "Did you guys see Peter out there he tried to escape and I'm not sure how far he got."

The others all looked at each other with looks of dismay and silently tried to decide who told her but their faces already gave her the answer.

"No...No No!" Reyna said and started crying softly.

"We tried to save him we really did! Leo even caut...cuat...ummm." Annabeth trailed off.

"Leo cauterized his wounds but their was nothing else we could do. I'm so sorry Reyna!" Frank explained.

"Did...Did he suffer? Do you know?" Reyna asked after awhile.

"No." Hazel lied quickly before anyone said anything.

Reyna nodded but tears streamed down her face.

"How did he escape? Aren't our powers suppressed?" Nico asked.

"Peter's sword. Apparently Frostbite it really effective against them because machines don't work well in the cold." Reyna explained.

They were about to ask another question when a scream filled the air.

Everyone gasped and thought the exact same thing.

"PIPER!"

Two chapters in a day? Wow I'm on fire! Byeeeeee!
