Ares would dearly like to kill the boy. That a half-blood could dare to beat him in his own domain…

There is nothing the god of war would like better than to see Perseus Jackson drown in his own blood. But what he had told him so long ago held true – there was no better fight than one fought between family. And as much as he hated to remember it, the gods of Olympus were still related to the Titans.

Besides, not even the pleasure of killing Jackson would be worth dealing with the combined wrath of Aphrodite and Poseidon. Added to that the fact that if he died, there was a good chance that one of the greatest wars ever would be postponed, and Ares did the only thing he could – he held off.

He had no doubt that he would have a chance to play with Jackson soon. But as for now – well, he just needed to wait until Jackson made the right move and-

BOOM!

He couldn't wait for the war.
