Of course right as they were maybe 25 ft. away things got confusing. Out of thin air five shots fired n rapid succession from nowhere then a figure shimmered into view. She was small but looked… older. She had pointed ears and, wings. Wait, wings? Then of course Percy busted through the doors holding a ballpoint pen. "Percy you won't kill any flyboys with a pen, even if you are a 'half-god' as you call your self" I was wrong, apparently target started selling pen-swords recently.
"The pen is mightier than the sword, besides this is a several thousand year old instrument of death.
"Pens have been around for thousands of years?" What, it was a perfectly valid question.
"No it was a comb first." Then the flyboys reached us.
Battle is funny because no matter what you expect, none of it will go as you thought. For example these flyboys lacked guns, also you hardly expect a hulking giant to jump out of the bushes armed with two machine guns firing with deadly accuracy at any flyboys getting even close to Artemis. But I think we had the most surprise out of our new allies, we all popped out our wings and flew right into the enemy lines kicking and punching the flyboys down, Nudge actually went down when hit on the head by a flyboy, one thing for these flyboys, they were strong if they hit you it would be hard to recover.
While I knew it was dangerous but they had a lot of robots and I was sure they would have nastier if we didn't leave soon. "Formation 8" I called. This was one of the many formations we had done when we were bored. The point was if we had to get wingless people away from danger fast we could do it fast, and efficiently. Fang grabbed Artemis, but apparently Artemis was lighter than expected because he was jerked out of Fangs hands and launched several feet into the air. Percy was heavier. I grunted as we lifted him several meters high. Then I remembered. "Nudge" I screamed out and every one gasped. This would not end well for us. Those who had not taken someone had already moved to take the confused Percy who was muttering something about Chiron not being happy with me. Then I flew down, searching for her. Then I saw her. She was handcuffed and tossed casually tossed into the trunk of a car. A dive bombed but I had to pull back before being shot by the driver. With tears in my eyes I flew back to my flock, once more not knowing if I would see tomorrow or not.
Sorry, I know that has been done to death but I couldn't think of anything else. Next chapter they will head to half blood hill and there might be some Nudge solo time which happens very rarely. Also Iggy will develop a new power.
