"Where is Camp Jupiter?!" Tripondias roared as Moroes shoved a burning hot spike into Peters leg.
Peter shook with pain but kept his mouth shut.
"Again!" Tripondias yelled.
"Of course sir." Moroes said and started burning the spike again.
Tripondias crouched down and became level with the battered demigod.
"Where is the camp? I will give you this one last chance." he said.
Peter sat motionless before headbutting the giant.
"Argh! Moroes, send in the torturer he will talk soon enough!" Tripondias said rubbing his nose as he left the chamber.
"Of course." Moroes said as he shoved the spike into Peters gut.
His eyes went wide and he shook with pain, a small whimper escaped from his mouth.
"You are strong." Moroes pointed out.
"But not strong enough!" a large man said as he walked in.
"Ah, good your here. The master wishes for you to break this demigod as soon as possible. Thank you." he said and left.
The torturer laughed as he picked up the spike and broke it in half.
Peter sat there staring at him as he grabbed some other tools.
"This will be fun!" he said as he picked up a bunch of red hot nails and a hammer.
Peter gulped hard.
Back at Camp Half-blood.
"Reyna have you any word from Peter?" Chiron asked.
Reyna shook her head sadly.
"Hazel? Nico?" Chiron asked.
"Nothing official but I think that I know where they are." Hazel said.
"Where?" Annabeth asked, she had been hysterical ever since Percy went missing.
They had immediately assumed that Tripondias was behind it.
"Portland I think." Hazel said.
"Well, lets do this!" Reyna and Annabeth said at the same time.
"I'm with you on this." Frank said getting up.
"Me too." Jason said.
"Heroes please we must plan.." Chiron started.
"Chiron?! When have we ever stuck with the plan? When has a plan ever even worked?! I know I'm the daughter of Athena but Percy is missing again and right now I say we walk into Portland and destroy the place until we find them!" Annabeth said with a very dangerous and murderous look in her eye.
The trainer of heroes gulped and then nodded.
"Get the chariots ready!" Reyna ordered.
The Roman and Greek campers all got on various chariots, pegasi, or mini metal dragons that the Hephaestus cabin made.
"Let's do this." Jason said putting on his armor.
"I'm right behind you." Annabeth said as they got into the lead chariot.
Jason snapped the reins and the pegasi took off with the entire demigod army behind them.
"How will we know.." Jason started before seeing Annabeths angry expression.
"Never mind they are totally in Portland." Jason said and snapped the reigns again.
Frank who was in eagle form was flying next to them.
Reyna and Piper were on Festus on the other side.
After about an hour the city of Portland came into view.
"You know, I know they could be anywhere but do you think that's where they are?" Jason asked pointing to a large mansion on a steep cliff overlooking the sea, mist was swirling around it.
"Yep that's probably it!" Annabeth said.
Jason brought the chariot down and the demigods all fell in line.
"Guys!" Jason yelled standing tall like his roman self.
Then his Greek self took over.
"Lets kick some ASS!" he yelled and charged the house.
The demigods roared and shouted as they charged right behind the son of Jupiter.
Frank turned into a large gorilla and ripped the doors down.
Hundreds of guards inside drew weapons and intercepted the army.
It was absolute chaos!
Percy.
Percy looked out his door window to the guard standing there.
Then he heard a rumbling and shouting.
"Uh oh! Looks like I was right!" Percy said smiling.
The guard growled and opened the door.
"I'm going to teach you a lesson kid!" he said cracking his knuckles.
Percy chuckled and quickly started deflecting his punches while throwing a few of his own.
After about ten seconds the guard fell to his knees.
"I'm not a kid. I'm the son of Poseidon." he said and punched the guard out cold.
He searched the guard and found his keys.
Percy ran out the door and tried to remember where Peter had been taking to.
"Ready to talk yet!" a voice said in the distance followed by a laugh.
Percy quickly hid behind the door and listened in.
"It's...It's in...San Francisco." a very weak and pained voice that was unmistakably Peters said.
"Where!?" the man who seemed to be torturing him asked.
Peter didn't answer.
"Another nail in the hand might loosen his tongue." Moroes' voice spoke up.
A loud bang and a cry of pain came from inside.
Percy wanted to run in but against Moroes was a death sentence.
"Berk...Berkeley Hills." Peter said.
"I shall tell the master." Moroes said.
Percy crouched behind the door as Moroes walked out and turned the corner.
When he was gone he ran into the room.
A man was standing in front of a flat table, that Peter was on.
"Berkeley Hills. Berkeley Hills. Berkeley Hills." Peter repeated over and over again in a weak voice.
"Well, no reason to keep you around anymore." the man said chuckling.
Percy checked his pocket and Riptide was there, he silently drew it.
"Say goodbye!" the man said lifting a large axe.
Percy stabbed the man in the back, who then dropped his axe.
He gasped and tried to pull the sword out but fell back and stopped breathing.
"Peter?!" Percy asked as he untied Peter.
"Berkeley Hills. Please no more." Peter said softly.
Percy was about to get him off of the table when he saw his arms and hands.
"Peter? Oh my gods!" Percy said as he saw all of the bloody nails in his arm and hands.
"No more." Peter said again, completely oblivious to the fact that the torturer was dead.
Percy looked around and found a hammer on one of the tables.
"Hang on Peter!" Percy said as he started ripping the nails out carefully.
"So cold. So...so cold." Peter said.
"Peter stay with me! Remember Reyna? You have to survive for her!" he said.
"R-Reyna? Warhead." Peter muttered.
"Yes! Survive for Reyna Insane!" Percy said as he pulled out the last nail from his hand.
"Love...I love her. I love Reyna." Peter muttered a little louder before his head rolled to the side.
"Peter! You are not dying on me!" Percy said and then had an idea.
He looked around the cabinets hoping the torturer was as sadistic as he seemed.
Luckily he was, Percy found Ambrosia and Nectar in a cabinet.
"Peter take this!" Percy said as he shoved the ambrosia into his mouth and helped him chew it.
Then he trickled some nectar into his mouth and a little color returned to Peter.
"Come on. Come on." Percy said with a few tears as nothing happened.
Then Peter opened his eyes and gasped loudly.
"Peter!" Percy said and gave him a hug.
Peter gasped softly as he slowly got his breathing under control.
"I...I...Oh gods. Thank you." Peter said with a few tears.
Percy helped him off the table.
"How you feeling?" Percy asked.
Peter groaned as he stood up.
"Percy I am not joking if you ask me that again I will run you through with Frostbite. I was tortured for three days!" Peter said rubbing his arms that had stopped bleeding and were slowly becoming scars.
"Right sorry." Percy said as he grabbed Riptide from the dead torturer.
Peter grabbed his pocketknife from the table and summoned his armor and weapons.
"I'm going to end Tripondias!" Peter said.
"Right but first we need to get Nico and Leo." Percy said holding up his keys.
Peter nodded "I remember where the cell is."
Percy followed him until they reached the door.
He opened it and found Nico and Leo in the corner.
"Guys!" Peter said.
"Insane!" Leo and Nico said.
"Good as new." Peter said as he checked to make sure that no guards were nearby.
They all ran down the hall until they slammed right into another group of people, causing them all to fall.
"Guys!" Jason, Piper, Reyna, Frank, and Annabeth said at the same time.
"Seaweed Brain!" Annabeth said.
"Wise Girl!" he said as he kissed her and hugged her.
"Hey Warhead." Peter said giving Reyna a long kiss.
"Great to have you back Insane." she said with a smirk.
"We have to find Tripondias and end this once and for all!" Jason said.
"I get first crack at him." Peter said with a glare.
No one argued.
They started down the hall when the door opened.
Moroes walked out with his daggers ready.
"Unexpected guests? Preparations...must be made." he said in the calm and deadpan voice.
"Oh, I am so done with you!" Nico said angrily as he lifted his sword.
All the heroes charged.
