(^~^) stay lovely.

Per felt like he was asleep. No really it was like Bering forced into sleep than waking up. The only problem was that it was still dark. It took a moment after he opened his eyes for him to see again.

Standing over him was a very shocked and very disgruntled Juliette. Her hands were on her hips. And she just stared at them. Percy looked away, her glare was vicious.

Apollo shook Wills arm and got him up. Everyone was lying in the ground.

A little way away from them stood Zoe and Silena who appeared to be having a conversation, them kept gesturing over to them.

"What are we supposed to do know?" Zoe asked

"They'll stay with us. When time runs up, well all go where we belong or when we belong." Silena said and grimaced at Percy.

"Where are we?" Will asked rubbing his eyes.

They all looked around then appeared to be in some kind of pantry. Bags of flour and canned foods surrounded them on shelves.

"Firefly diner and bakery." Juliette answered "On the day where everything went to complete shit."

They all came to there feet and dusted themselves off, but something felt wrong. Percy felt off, his movements didn't feel real. They were too light, light he was hallow or something.

The door knob began to turn. Everybody froze. And another Juliette ewalked in. Sjhe was wearing a pair of ripped jeans and a pink Floyd T-shirt. Her hair was pulled up in a ponytail. She began to take some cans of cranberry sauce off the shelf's. And at one point she walked right through Leo like he wasn't even there.

"Only our conscious is here." Silena explained "None of them can see,feel, or hear us."

Oh okay Percy thought but why was he here.

The other Juliette walked out and closed the door behind her.

"Come on lets go." Juliette said

Jason tried to open the door but his hand couldn't grasp it. He tried again. nothing.

"Just walk through the wall." Silena said before walking through the door. Zoe and Juliette followed. Percy shrugged and the rest of them followed.

"Jeez it's about time Jules, my clothes are going out of style." Said and unfamiliar voice.

"Ah shut it." Said Juliettes voice

The diner looked like a typical hole in the wall place. There was brick walls and peeling paint and and a cherry wooden floor. There were picture frames of every color on the light grey walls.

The tables and booths and curtains that leaded to what Percy assumed was a kitchen. The counter was long and large stools sat on one side. Juliette was on one side of the counter picking up some dishes and glasses. They all sort of stood awkwardly in the middle of the diner, there wasn't much to do.

"Aren't you going to Colosseum to see the fights?" A voice through the small window into the kitchen asked.

"I might as well since no ones even here and I've got to deliver some take out." The other Juliette said and she pushed the dishes through the small window. "Can you believe Vic wants me to deliver now? Isn't that what she's got little siblings for?"

"Yeah," Said the voice and small head peeked through the window, it was a girl with caramel braids and a dark complexion there was some mustard on her chin. "But she wants them to enjoy this day. They've been so excited for the matches especially Maria."

"Yeah, yeah, I know." The other Juliette picked up a large cooler with wheels. "I'll be back in maybe an hour but probably less." Then she walked out the glass doors and we followed.

"Come on," Said Silena "Let's run ahead before it's too late." We took off full speed and we didn't even get a chance to take in our surrounding we were runninng for quite a while until we jumped off a cliff.

Yes, we jumped off a cliff and somehow landed in New Rome. Our Juliette dusted on her legs and looked around.

"Time?" She asked

"12:04." Silena said checking her watch.

"We have to hurry, come on." Juliette began to run again and we followed again. We didn't really think about where we were going we just thought. Percy really wasn't sure. But they thought of seeing who killed Zoe made him clench his teeth and he ran faster.

In the distance they saw a Colosseum, it was brick and made of marble and stone. It looked new, like built in the last ten years. Quite a few people were trying to get in. They were getting out there wallets and some were holding kids. They just walked right through they and it took a while for Percy to realize that he didn't have to move out of the way for people.

After that we walked right in. We had slowed down and We were led to some stairs that many people were already walking on. They seemed to circle the Colosseum going higher and higher.

"Which floor was she on?" Silena asked

"6th."

"Time?" Silena asked

"12:13." Juliette answered

"Dammit." Silena muttered "We have to hurry. Why don't we have elevators."

"They wanted it to have an old feeling about the place." Zoe said and looked around. "Remember, Jezebel charmed the stairs so they only take about a minute to get to each floor. So we have 6 minutes but if we run that's 3 minutes."

"Great." Juliette said

We ran up that stairs quickly right through people. And a few time into each other. When we made it to the sixth floor we were all shockingly not out of breath. Silena seemed to be looking for someone.

"There's Jezebel!" Zoe exclaimed and pointed. She jogged over and we followed. A girl with golden tan skin and golden brown hair and looking over a a railing. She seemed to be 13 or 14. Two other girls were standing next to her. The youngest was as cute as a button. She was perfect ginger curls but no freckles. Her eyes were hazel which gave a lovely contrast to her face. She was holding a stuffed panda. The other girl(the second oldest was Asian. Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. Percy couldn't tell which. She had a splash of cute light freckles across her nose. Her straight black hair went to about her hips. They didn't look like any or them so Percy assumed they weren't anyone's kids.

Maria didn't react when Zoe walked over to her. Neither did the other girls.

"We're looking for you, Zoe not Jezebel and . . . um them." Juliette stuttered

"Just wait I'll be here soon." Zoe said and leaned against the wall. So we all relaxed. But who were these girls.

"I wonder when it's gonna start?' Jezebel asked swiping a lock of her golden brown hair behind her ear. Instead pf answering the ginger said

"I've got a really good feeling something bad's about to happen."

"What are you talking about Bee? What do you mean 'something bad'." The asian girl asked. Bee shook her head and stared at something in the distance and held her stomach.

"Something bad, just something bad." Bee said.

"You're always so cryptic!" The Asian girl said "Nothing bad is gonna happen."

"Maria! Something bad is gonna happen to you if don't stop talking to people like that." Jezebel said as she flicked her forehead. Percy guessed they were sisters.

Bee? Maria? An idea was forming on the back of Percy's mind, he glanced over at Nico and Will.

Maria swatted her hand away and rubbed her forehead. She was peering through the bars in the railing.

"Time?" Silena asked again

"12:25." Juliette answered sadly. Silena nodded sadly and looked at Jezebel and the other girls.

Then a sound like rubble callapsing and an explosion pierced the air. Jezebel grabbed her sisters and held them close.

"Deodamnatus!" Jezebel cursed in latin. Her rich brown eyes flickered with something inhuman, it looked like a sheen of light. Bee clutched onto her leg and jezebel was clutching Maria as well as the railing.

"What's going on?" Maria asked

"An attack." Jezebel's voice was steady. "Everyone has to leave. We have to-"

Suddenly a group of men were surrounding us. Jezebel held the girls closer. AT first Percy couldn't see anything peculiar about them. Then he saw their eyes.

They were black with red iris's. Percy stomach curdled.

"Jezebel, lovely to see you again. You'll be coming with us." One of the men said. Jezebel looked so afraid.

"Brutum fulmen." Jezebel mumbled and for a moment the men seemed almost afraid but it didn't last.

Their leader smiled at her, and shook his head.

"You'll be coming with us. And if you don't want to-well it doesn't matter what you want." Jezebel gulped at his last words.

"Somebody help me." She bit her lip "Somebody has to help me now."

Then out of now where Zoe was there. A healthy practically glowing Zoe was standing in front of Jezebel and her sisters. She turned her head and smiled and flashed a piece sign. Then men seemed to be actual afraid now and it wasn't wearing off.

"Yo." She said and turned to the men "Scatter!" The all ran away and kept looking back as if to see if she was chasing them.

And that was the end of that.

"We have to leave." Jezebel said "Where are my sisters?"

"Do you remember the steps when there is an attack on New Rome?" Zoe asked.

"Um . . . " Zoe looked grim

"Step one unleash a counter attack to keep the enemy back. If it becomes apparent that that can't happen we evacuate the citizens. Then we attack and take out the enemy forces."

"But it's demons this time! How, what are we gonna do?" Jezebel asked

"Exactly that. We have the demons under control. Lead everyone to safety and get the kids to the safe houses."

"Um okay . . . Hey! Wait." Jezebel said as Other Zoe had started to turn away.

"What?" Other Zoe asked

"Be safe." Jezebel said

"I always am." Zoe smiled and ran away.

"I don't like that she's going. She should stay with us." Bee said

"We have to get out of here come on." And Jezebel ran off holding Bee and Maria's hands.

"Let's go find me and Silena." Juliette said sadly "That's where Zoe went to next. We have to hurry." And we were off running again.

But to where?
