-|FINALE|-
All the campers at Camp Half-Blood knew something big was coming when a giant glowing ship was hovering over it. The sound of the alert grabbed everyone's attention and soon enough, everyone was running around. Leo halted the ship directly on top of Castilun's assumed 'castle' and spoke through the megaphone.
"Hey what's up Castilun! That pun was intended by the way," Leo shouted full of enthusiasm,"surrender now or die in peace!"
"Leo!" Screamed by Castilun,"You could've been useful! You're a great engineer!"
"And I got tied up and humiliated by apples!" Leo shouted back,"You're made of lies Castilun."
What Castilun didn't realise was that Percy and Annabeth were leading a whole lot of demigods down through a pipe. The demigods stumbled out of the pipes and sneaked around the cabins. They got spotted by some of the Ares cabin who readied their spears until they saw Clarisse and they gulped.
"Rotten, filthy, back-stabbing good for nothing fools!" She spat,"I knew I could never trust you!"
"We're sorry... Clarisse?" They said uncertainly.
"Scram!" She barked.
The Ares campers dispersed, running like little girls back to their cabin.
"Nice job Clare." Percy said.
"Don't call me that." She said angrily.
"You call me names to, axe head." He said, grinning.
"Your going to get one in yours." She said in a threatening tone.
"Guys!" Annabeth said in a stern tone.
Percy and Clarisse stopped arguing and just continued being stealthy. Nico seemed only to trust Reyna cause they both walked side by side nervously looking around. They were both twisting their rings which Annabeth thought looked cute. They managed to disarm a few guards which were just a bunch of skinny Hephaestus kids. The Hephaestus kids just followed Leo like he was the leader. Not like anyone could blame them of course, he had built really cool ships. Percy just realised that Leo was with them. He looked up and saw Leo shouting at Castilun. Two Leo's? Leo on the ground whispered automaton. Percy grinned.
Castilun wasn't that dumb of course. It only took him 20 minutes of arguing with a machine before he realised something was amiss. He looked around and managed to spot Percy. Percy Jackson. The boy he took the top spot from. He smiled and looked at could-be-anything Annabeth who smiled back. Percy and Annabeth stepped out of the shadows. Everyone gasped and started to talk amongst themselves on the topic of the two Annabeths.
"Percy Jackson," Castilun snarled,"and the real Annabeth. Tut tut. Hmmmm."
"Hello Castilun," Percy said calmly,"one on one?"
"Perfect," Castilun said,"look at me Percy Jackson! I'm the king pin! Feel me yo!"
There was some stifled laughter at the last sentence. Percy didn't hesitate when he drew Riptide. Castilun surprised everyone when he pulled out Zeus's old master bolt. He flung it at Percy who was once again protected by the power of light.
"A light shield spell? Pathetic Jackson!" Castilun screamed.
"More than that." Percy snarled.
Percy infused the power of light into his cursed blade to make Riptide stronger.
"Say hello to my new toy." Percy said smiling.
"Impossible!" Shouted Castilun,"I have an advantage though!"
To everyone's surprise, out of Castilun's back grew wings and he changed form. He was a Harkon. A harpy and drakon in the same creature. He was a terrifying purple and had huge, feathered wings. He took flight and threw more lighting at Percy. The shield once again caught it. Percy slashed at Castilun, producing a beam of light which flew out of the blade.
"I really could get used to this." Percy muttered to himself.
The gods had heard the commotion and appeared in a flash at Camp Half-Blood. They all looked tired. Everyone was startled when they saw the big three all chained up. The gods seemed to have had a battle among themselves.
"Long story." Apollo muttered.
"Don't matter, charge!" Percy screamed at the top of his lungs.
All of the demigods charged at the others. Castilun definitely had got way more members but Percy had the gods so it was a no brainier. Well at least he thought it was a no brainier. Castilun had been prepared for his attack. Some traps had been set and trapped the gods within power holding cells. Hestia cursed as she got caught in one.
"Hey Hestia!" Percy shouted,"I thought you liked peace!"
She scowled."Quiet Jackson and free me from my cell!"
Aether's power sure enough managed to break the enchanted cage.

Why was so much of my power being used? I thought to myself. It was a guardian not a toy. Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase were meant to be trustable. I couldn't sleep without thinking about what they were doing. I finally decided to try to push through the pendants. This was gonna hurt.
OVERVIEW OF THE BATTLE
Percy was starting to feel not good. A number of demigods were being treated by the Apollo kids. He was getting weary and needed something to do about it. He took another slash at Castilun. Then he and Annabeth felt warmer. They looked down and the pendants were glowing.
•|•|•|•AETHER •|•|•|•
Close. So close. I managed to get one hand out of there and a foot through the other. I pushed and pushed through the pendants. I was basically desperate to get out now. My power was using used quite a bit. With all my might (which is a lot) I pushed through the pendants and voilà, I'm out!
OVERVIEW OF THE BATTLE
The appearance of a primordial was more startling than the chained up big three. Everyone raised their weapons towards Aether and got ready to go stabbity stabbity on him.
Annabeth shouted,"Stand down!"
While Percy shouted,"Pops!"
Aether grunted. "I told you not to call me pops!"
The gods looked puzzled at their grandad.
"Hhhmmmm. It's been Quite a long time since I've seen my grandchildren." Aether said.
With Aether on their side, things were improving by a mile. Aether super powered Riptide so it struck Castilun really hard. The only downside was that they didn't have the big three in their side.
Finally, after many rounds, Castilun was finished. He fell from the sky like a harpy. The other demigods had fainted or surrendered.
"Give up Castilun!" Percy said.
"Never!" He replied, flicking his sword at Percy.
Eros, the god of love, quickly blocked the bolt but his bow could not block the bolt. Eros was instead struck down and his mother, Aphrodite, ran up to cradle her dying son. This was an obvious death wish but Percy didn't really know what he wanted to do.
"I got this," Nico told Percy as he walked up to Castilun,"by my power, I sentence you to Tartarus."
The ground opened up and out crawled some skeletons which dragged Castilun down. No was the only thing you could hear. All of the Aphrodite campers walked up to their mother and the dying Eros. They all looked down.
"Do not fret mother," Eros said,"I shall another. Piper come here. Take my bow and use it and take my place as love."
"I don't want to be immortal!" Piper said quickly.
"It's temporarily, girl."
"Okay..." Piper said wearily.
She accepted bow and immediately got pretty mode. She muttered some curses under her breath and walked away from the dying love.
Apollo suddenly doubled over and he looked at Rachel.
"Delphi... Its seeks to be united!" Apollo said through gritted teeth.
Rachel steadied him. How?"
"Release the spirit of and let it find its physical form!"
Apparently, Rachel knew how to do that. A golden liquid crawled out her mouth and slithered over to... Ella... Ella squawked loudly and turned golden. She seemed to look like she was possessed. She breathed out a green fire which took the old campfire. The green flames danced around the logs as the campers celebrated their victory.
3 WEEKS LATER
The 7 and Reyna and Nico met at the restaurant and saw that piper was getting into her job.
"It's only temporarily but it's still fun." Piper said.
Jason secretly hoped she wouldn't shoot him with a love dart. That would be cheating.
"I'm still beautiful though." She continued.
The big three were no longer evil. Yay. Apparently, Hestia's hunch was right. The weapons were cursed and blah blah. Cliché stuff it was.
Thank you guys for reading! I'm I like the only one who finished his betrayal story? Huh. Question for another day! Thanks guys and peace!
