Chapter 9: I get Piper back
Harry's pov.
We all walked side by side into Azkaban having to step over or climb over the rubble that was once the front entrance. We walked half way in and stopped. I looked around and couldn't see Voldemort anywhere. I saw Thanatos chained to the floor by both his ankles next to Voldemort's throne. Draca hadn't got Piper and I realized way right away. I saw Piper standing by Voldemort's throne, Bellatrix behind her holding her in a tight grip with a dagger at her throat. If Draca had grabed her she could of made Bellatrix cut her. And right in front of Piper stood a line of death eaters blocking my way to her. I will have to fight my way though.
I reached in my pocket and pulled out my knife that Sirius once gave me; the very knife I had killed Lycaon with. I reached over and sliped it into Clarisse's hand.
"Your job is to free Thanatos, thats what Ares wanted you to do." I told her. "So, fight your way to him don't worry about anything else or anyone else into you get him free." Clarisse nodded her head. And I turned my attention back to the death eaters.
For a moment nobody said anything and nobody moved. We just stood and stared. Waiting for each other to make the first move.
"Why, are you just standing there, fight them." Bellatrix yelled. And that was all it took for one death eater to step forward and throw a curse my way, I ducked, then raised back up and thrust out my hand and let loose raw magic, it hit him right in the chest sending him flying back ten feet.
Now the fight was on, the rest stepped forward throwing spells at everone of us, but we all ducked, dodged or blocked them with ease. One death eater threw a spell at me, but it hit my sword sending it flying out of my hand. I wasn't too worried about that. I didn't really need my sword at the moment, but it did make me a little mad and I raised my hand and sent a stunner at him. More and more came after me. Throwing whatever spell they could think of, I just dodged and rolled, their spells just went right past me. And I would hit them right back with a spell of my own or just magic and they would be thrown back.
I looked to see how my friends was doing. I saw Clarisse taken out death eater after death eater, by either bashing them in the head with her spear or her sheld, which did a good jop of stopping any curse thrown at her. She was doing as I asked and fighting her way to Thanatos.
Tyson was bashing death eaters with his big stick and Nico was doing just as good as Clarisse was with dodging spells and taken out death eaters, he would disappear into the shadows, then reappear behind one, taking him by surprise.
Sirius was doing the best though he waved his wand, sending spell after spell, hitting each death eater he pointed at . I noticed him looking around then his eyes fell on where Piper was standing and his face split into an almost evil looking smile. I looked to see Wormtail standing next to Piper watching the fighting, his eyes darted from fighter to fighter, as if he was scared. They then fell on Sirius and the way he was looking at him, he gave a very girly scream turned into a rat (making Piper yelp) and ran off.
"You're not getting away from me this time, rat." Sirius yelled he turned into his big grim looking dog and went chasing after Wormtail, he jumped right over the line of death eaters that was standing infront of the platform blocking me from Piper and landed on to the platform, making sure to knock Bellatrix down as he ran by.
As my attention was on them someone hit me from behind, with a spell knocking me down. I cried out as I felt something sticky on the back of my shirt, I reached behind me, my shirt had been cut open and I now had a nasty cut running across my back. I was stunned for a moment and turned on to my back, the death eater that had hit me was now standing over me, he rasied his wand and pointed it right at me, but before he could get a spell out, Nico appeared out of the shadows behind him and stock his sword right through the guys back, his eyes went wide, before he fell to the ground and moved no more.
I looked up at Nico wide eyed, his black eyes was flashing with anger. "Nico, I can't believe you just..."
I was cut off by Nico reaching down and grabing my arm and pulling me to my feet.
"You're the closet thing to family I have." Nico said. "I already lost Bianca, I won't lose anyone else." And with that Nico ran off to fight someone else leaving me wondering who Bianca was.
Then the air suddenly grew colder and I heard Piper scream, I looked to see four dementors surrounding her. I thrust out my hand, my silver stag flew from it and jumped over the death eaters and onto the platform knocking the dementors away.
I looked up at Draca. "Go outside and make sure no more dementors come in here." I told her she nodded turned around and ran threw the side of the bulding and outside. With that I turned my attention to the line of death eaters blocking me from who I came her for and it was time to take them out.
I walked right up to them and then held out my hand my sword flew from somewhere behind me and right into my palm.
"Now, how are we going to do this?" I asked. "Are you going to move so I can get to my girl, or do I have to go through everone of you?"
Before any of them had a chance to answer there was a sudden sheft in the air, it became a little thicker and hard to breath, then right behind the death eaters, where Piper stood, Voldemort appeared as if out of nowhere. As if he had been hiding there all this time.
"Heracleitus, you finaly made it." Voldemort said. I flinced when he used my whole name. How dare he call me that. Hera was the only one with the right to call me by my full name. Well if he was going to use my real name, I will use his.
"You might as well hand Piper over to me, Tom." I said. And thunder rumbled across the sky, but not by Zeus, it seemed Voldemort has gotten good with his demigod abilties. "I'm not giving myself up to let Alcyoneus rise. I will fight you for Piper and believe me you will lose."
Voldemort threw his head back and laughed. "Do you think I care about that." He said. "No, that was Gaea's plan, I only went along with it to get you here, so I can kill you once and for all. Gaea dosen't need a giant to take out the gods. No I can and I will do it myself. I will kill my father Zeus and become king of the gods, and whatever god dosen't wish to follow me will be taken out also."
"You do realize we are talking about gods, not some defenseless muggles." I said. "Immortal beings, taken them out isn't going to be easy, if at all possible. Zeus and I may not get along, but I will admit he would destory you with one blast from his master blot."
"How dare you." Voldemort sneered. The air thicked, thunder roared across the sky and lighting flashed. Voldemort then turned to Piper, raised his hand and lighting came down from the sky went through his hand and hit Piper sending her flying across the platform and landing at the end with lound smack. Where she laid barley moving.
"STOP," I yelled taken a step forward, but as I did the death eaters took a step toward me. I glanced frantically at Piper she was moaning in pain and holding her back. "Get out of my bloody way or I'll kill ever last one of you." They looked taken back for a mintue but still didn't move.
"Don't just threaten them, do it." A very familar voice was suddenly in my head saying. "If you want to get to Piper, do it. You have it in you. I know you do, deep down." I shook my head. Closing my eyes.
"Get out of my head." I thought back to her. "I'm not going to do anything you tell me to." She laughed.
"Oh, you will, come on just let your magic take over." Eyno said. "Let it out, just think of ever last thing you've been through to get her and now these punks are stopping you from reaching your girl. She could be hurt."
"I can save her if you just get out of my head." I told her, but I must of said it out lound becaues now everone was staring at me like I had gone mad.
"Come on then, show them you can take ever last one of them out with just one shot." Eyno said. "It's all there in your hands, all that magic and power don't let it go to wast. Did you know Gaea had planed to hand your girl over to Alcyoenus to merry, haven't you noticed what they have on Piper, what she is wearing. They were going to give that nasty giant your girl when you were dead."
I shook my head and looked at Piper then narrowed my eyes. Eyno was telling the truth, Piper was wearing a wedding dress. It was a creamy color with long lacy sleeves and tyed up in the back. A lacy vile laid next to her, as if it just fell from her hair. I could feel my magic stirring wanting me to let it loose, as if it had a mind of it's own. I was still fighting not wanting to kill anyone or get too worked up. I had to keep my head to save Piper.
Then Voldemort decided to do something to piss me off. He smirked at me, then turned to Piper, he held his hand palm up then slowly begin to close his fingers. Piper gasped out and grabed her thoart gasping for air. Then it hit me what he was doing. Jason was able to contral the air enough to fly. Voldemort was going beyond that and contraling all the air around him, like Nico can shadows. And he was using that ability to suck all the air right out of Piper so she couldn't breath. He was killing my girlfriend right infront of me.
That was when I lost all thought and contral over what I was doing. Anger flowed through me and I begin to shake. An emerald green light started glowing from both my hands. And then up my arms. Before long my whole body begin to glow. My head was down so I didn't noticed everone had stopped what they were doing to watch me. Even Voldemort had stopped and Piper was taken deep breath and gasping, breathing deeply.
The light around me was turning darker, it was now a dark forst green, like my eyes get when ever I get real mad. They went past that color into it was black. The shadows around us begin to dance, I couldn't contral what I was doing, it was like my magic did take over me, I wasn't in contral of myself anymore, it was like watching someone else through their eyes. As I slowly raised my head back up, and opened my eyes. The death eaters all took a step back looking real scared. If I was able to look in a mirror at that time, I would see way. I was surrounded by patch black light, and my eyes had turned to patch black, I mean my my whole eye balls, there wasn't even any white left to them.
It was like watching somebody else's hands as mine shot out and the shadows flew around the death eaters. They screamed as they attacked them. I could hear there robs ripping and them yelling, on top of Eyno laughing like crazy inside my head.
"Harry," I heard Nico''s voice calling me, but I didn't answer him. Instead I twisted my wand into a staff and slammed it down on the ground, the ground begun to shake and a crack appeared infront of the death eaters, I watched as skeleton hands reached up and grabed hold of their legs and pulled them down into the ground. I could hear them ripping them apart as the crake closed up.
"I told you, you had it in you." Eyno laughed. "I am going to enjoy watching you."
I looked up at Voldemort and he sneered down at me. He suddenly reached into his robes and pulled out a sword. It had a green handle, with a long silver blade shaped like a snake's tail. He raised it up thunder rumbled and lighting came down through the sword and stayed there making the sword crakle with electricity.
I raised my sword and waited for his next move, he just stood there watching, so I deicded to move first. I rushed up on to the platfrom swung my sword, but Voldemort was quick and easily blocked my blade with his before it hit his face. We just stood there for a moment our blades hitting each others and glaring. I then moved back swung around and went for his side, but again he blocked me. I then moved back and acted like I was going for his left side, and when his blade went that way, I suddenly changed, swung back around and got him on the right side. (A move Percy taught me) Voldemort gasped out in both pain and anger, he swung his sword real fast; before I could do anything he got me on the right leg. I yelled out falling down on one knee holding on to the cut in my leg. It not only hurt, but alsogave me a shock. He had cut through my pants to my leg which was now bleeding pretty bad.
"You ass hole." I said glaring up at him. "These were my favorite jeans."
While my attention was on my leg, Voldemort thought he would finish me off; he came at me with his sword up ready for the kill, but doing as Nico taught me, I fadded into the shadows and came back out behind him, the moment he turned around in surprise, I got him on the other side with my blade. He backed up in pain. Bleeding from both sides now. I knew I couldn't kill him yet, not with all his Horcruxes, but I was hopeing to hurt him enough he would have to flee.
I took the chance to look down at Piper, who I was now standing above. She gave me a weak smile and I returned it, before turning my attention back to Voldemort. He was looking his side over, anger flashing through his scarlet eyes.
"Hey, Tommy boy." I said, gripping my sword tight. Voldemort look up at me and sneered. "You own me a new pair of jeans."
"You're not the only one with tricks." Voldmeort said, ignoring my remark. The air then grew thicker and then Voldemort seemed to disappear into it, I looked around to try and see where he went, when I heard Piper scream.
"Behind you." I turned around and ducked just in time as Voldemort tried to take off my head with his sword. What I didn't noticed was Bellatrix had got back to her feet and hold out her wand.
"Expelliarmus," She yelled and my sword went flying out of my hand.
"You bitch." Piper yelled, she jumped to her feet and made to go after Bellatrix, but Voldemort raised his hand and folded his finger again and Piper feel to her knee gasping for air.
I took a step toward Voldemort, but before I got to him, Tyson came from out of nowhere and knocked Voldemort to the ground. He then sat on top of him, legs on either side and pounded into Voldemort face. I just stood there in shcok as I watched Tyson beat the crap out of Tommy boy.
"You leave my cousin and friend alone." Tyson said as he hit Voldemort again.
Then there was a roar of thunder and lighting came down and hit Tyson sending him flying, he hit a pile of rubble and rolled off to the floor where he laid unmoving.
I took a step toward Voldemort when suddenly I cried out in pain as something went through my side, I turned my head thinking I would see Bellatrix standing there, instead I saw Wormtail, he had cuts all over his face and arms, and his head was also bleeding. I looked down to see the same dagger Bellatrix had to Piper's thoart was now in Wormtail's hand with the blade sticking in my side. I wondered were Sirius was as I fell down to my knees, dagger still in my side, I could hear Piper screaming my name.
Voldemort now stood over me, sneering which wasn't too scary, with him having: a cut lip, bloody nose, a black eye forming and his face was black and blue.
I'm done playing around." Voldmeort said, and he rasied his sword the tip pointing toward my chest, but before he could stab me, I heard a sudden growl and Sirius in dog form had come out of nowhere and knocked Voldemort to the floor, then snapped at his neck. The air thicked again and Voldemort diappeared form under Sirius and reappeared next to Bellatrix on the platform. He grabed her arm then disappeared taking Bellatrix with him.
"Harry," Piper ran to me and got on her knees and wrapped her arms around me. She then screamed out when she saw the knife sticking out of my side. Sirius turned back human and came over to me. I looked down at it and winched.
"I'll be fine." I said, but my voice was shakey. Nico now came over and stood behind me. His eyes widen at the dagger, I tried to give him a reassuring smile, but he just kept looking grim. Piper tighted her grip on me and cried into my shoulder. I grabed hold of the dagger to try and pull it out, but Sirus stopped me.
"You might make it worse." He said. Then his grey eyes darkened. I noticed he had a cut on his cheek and lip was bleeding a little, his clothes were also muddy.
Piper's head suddenly lefted and she narrowed her eyes at Wormtail, who hadn't moved and was staring at the spot Voldemort disappeared from.
"How could you?" She screamed at him. "He didn't do anything to you." I saw Sirius' eyes narrow at that.
"Dad?" I said. But Sirius didn't listen he slowly stood and turned toward Wormtail. "Dad."
"You did this." Sirius demanded. "You stabed my son." Wormtail flinced. He looked from me to Sirius.
"You say Harry is your son, and he calls you dad." He sneered. "How do you think, Prongs would like it if he knew."
Sirius growled sounding a lot like his animgus form and ran forward and attacked Wormatail, they rolled around on the ground. Sirius pounding into him. They round to where Sirius was on top of Wormtail and was hitting him, but Wormtail brought his silver hand up and wrapped it around Sirius' neck. Sirius fell of him and on to the floor, Wormtail was now on him choking him with his sliver hand, and to my horror Sirius' face started turning blue.
"DAD." I yelled. I pulled the dagger out of my side and tried to stand to go help him, but before I could do anything, I felt Piper reached to my other side and take her dagger that I had hooked there, she turned to Sirius.
"Sirius, here." She cried and slide it across the ground to him, Sirius grabed it and brought it up and put it right through Wormtail's chest, Wormtail's eyes got big and his hand fell from Sirius' thoart and he fell off Sirius onto his side. His eye stared up unblinking. Sirius had finaly done what he had wanted to do since he broke out of Azkaban, he had killed Wormtail.
Sirius got to his feet and looked down at the unmoving body and ran his hand through his hair. He looked shocked by what happened. He then sighed and walked back over to me.
Without a word he bent down and helped me to stand, Piper put one of my arms around her shoulder and her arms around my waist to help me stay standing. Sirius looked my side over then nodded.
"It's not too bad, cut's not too deep."." He said. "So, you should be fine once we get you out of here." He then dropped down to look at my leg. Anger once again flashed through his eyes.
"Don't worry." I told him. "I got Voldemort good in both sides." Sirius grined up at me.
"Thats my boy." He said. Pride in his voice.
Nico pulled from the inside pocket of his jacket. a fask of nector. And poured some on my stab wound, it stopped bleeding and begin to close up. He also poured some on the cut on my back. I could feel the stinging going away as it healed.
"That should do into we can get back to camp." He said, then handed the fask down to Sirius. "Pour some on his leg wound, but don't get any on you unless you want to burn." Sirius rolled his eyes at Nico, took the flask and begin pouring the nector on the cut on my leg.
Then two things happened at once. First was the sound of a click echoing across the room, then Clarisse jumped up from her spot next to Thanatos and screamed.
"Finaly," As his chains fell from around his ankles.
Then the whole ground begin to shake and Piper tighten her grip around me to stop me from falling. And I held on to her tighter.
"What's going on?" Nico asked, as Sirius grab his arm to stop him from falling down. I looked toward the spire to see pieces of it crumbling away. And falling down with lound bangs. Clarisse jumped off the paltform and came over to us, almost falling a couple time, then when she was right up on us she nearly fall, but Sirius grabed her arm to stop her, which made her face go red.
"It's Alcyoneus," Thanatos said. He had followed Clarisse over to us and I couldn't help but think he looked more like cupid then death.
Just then a big rumble came, and the ground shook, the spire broke apart and Alcyoenus stood up and sneered down at us.
He was even uglier than the last two giants I have come face to face with, he had metalic golden skin, armor made from platinum links, precious stones glinted in his hair and he had an iron staff the size of a totem pole. His rust-red color dragon legs stumped on the ground. Making the whole prison shake.
He sneered down at me. "I guess you guys didn't noticed me sucking up all the magic, and energy you were useing to fight one another, I didn't need you at all." He raised his staff and hit the ground with it. The ground shook some and pieces of the bulding started crumbling and falling. Alcyoneus sneered at me once more.
"Now, I can kill you myself." He said. "And then make Piper McLean my wife."
Anger flowed through me as I felt something being put into my hand. I looked down to see Piper handing me my sword. I smiled at her then gave her a kiss. Before turing all my attention onto Alcyoneus.
I walked toward him, lemping a little becaues my leg wasn't fully healed. He laughed as I got closer and raised my sword.
"I took out your brother, and I am going to take out you too." I glared at him.
"Fighting for your girl are you?" He teased. "The very girl who is going to be my wife. You see Mother Gaea promised each of us any demigod we wish to merry, but Porpyhrion was greedy and still after all these enos he still wanted Hera and Polybotes has been promised the hand of a daughter of Athena, that Annabeth Chase."
I suddenly started laughing, I couldn't help it nothing was funny I know, but my side and leg was killing, Nico hadn't had enough nector to heal me all the way, and I was tired and starting to feel a little weak. But everone stared at me like I was crazy anyway.
"Harry," Piper said, and her voice calmed me down so I was able to stop laughing. I took a deep breath and looked back up and Alcyoneus.
"There is no way, Percy is going to let Polybotes, anywhere near Annabeth, just like I am not going to let you anywhere near Piper. We love our girls and both of us would die to keep them safe." I swollowed. "But you are going to be the one dieing today." I twisted my sword to the left and it changed into a staff, then I slammbed it down on the ground and the ground started to shake. Cracks formed on the ground around Alcyoneus, and Nico came to stand by me and slammbed his sword into the ground, helping me out. Shadows flew all around Alcyoneus' head and skeleton hands came up out of the ground.
"STOP," Alcyoneus cried trying to bat the shadows away, he then made an angery growl like noise and brought is hand down trying to grabed me, I jumped over his hand stabing him in the palm as I jumped over, he yelled in pain as gold blood poured from his palm.
"You'll regret that." Alcyoneus said. But before he could do anything, Clarisse came forward and stabed one of his ankles with her spear. He screamed in pain. Then Nico ran forward and got him in the other leg with his sword, then ran up his arm and sliced at it too. Now Piper ran forward and stabed him with her dagger in the same leg Clarisse had got him in.
I deicded to get in on the attention. I twisted my staff back into a sword and jumped on top of Alcyoneus' knee to his arm where I ran up it and raised my sword and sliced Acyoneus right across the eye. He scaremed in pain as I did a back flip and landed on the ground, but stumbled and Sirius caught me before I could fall and sat me up right.
On and On we went taking turns slicing and stabbing and whatever else we could do to Alcyoneus, Sirius even helped by hitting him in the eyes with spells, so he couldn't see an attack coming, but no mater how many times we cut him, it just wasn't enough we needed a god's help to kill him. And Thanatos didn't seem like he was stepping in any time soon. And I was now so tired I was surprise I could stay on my feet.
"It dosn't matter how much you hurt me." Alcyoneus said. "You still can't kill me without a god."
"He's right." Nico said coming to stand by me. He was breathing heavey and had sweat pouring down his face. "We need a god or goddess to help us."
I was about to close my eyes and pray to my mother for help when suddenly the ground shook, and the crack I had made opened up wider forming a pit like hole, shadows flew from it and surrounded Alcyoneus, but not like the shadows I had made, these were ten times bigger. Then two giant skeleton hands reached up out of the ground; grabbing hold of Alcyoneus' legs.
"NO, it can't be." He yelled.
Nico and I looked at each other. And he was grinning big. We both knew who was doing that. We nooded at one another, then took off running toward Alcyoneus, we went around the hole and on to the paltform, which was staring to crack open too, the whole place was falling apart. We ran around behind Alcyoneus, and as he twisted and turned to face us trying to get free of the giant skeleton hands, Nico and I jumped up on one of his knees at the sametime, then jumped up and togather we put our swords into his chest right into his heart. He yelled out and went falling backwords into the pit the hands dragging him under.
And of coures Nico and I fell into it too, but I grabed hold of the side with one hand and grabed Nico's hand with the other. I could hear the prison falling down and crumbling all around us, I could barley hold on, and just as my finger started to slip, someone grabed my hand. I looked up to see it was Tyson, he griped my arm and with one good pull, pulled us both out of the pit.
When I came up I fell right into Piper's arm, she put her head on my shoulder and I could hear her sob.
"Come on we got to get out of here." I heard Clarisse say. I nodded my head and gently pulled back from Piper. Who's eyes had suddenly widen.
"Bill," She said. As if she just remembered. I gave her a questioning look. "Bill Weasley, is still in one of them cells up there." She pointed to a forth roll of cells. I didn't even have time to think about way he was even here, but took off toward where she was pointing, I could hear Piper running behind me, as I ran up the stairs and to the cell I saw movement in, and there was Bill Weasley standing by the cell bars his eye wide as the ground crumbled under us.
"Stand back." I told him, and Bill took a step back as I thrust out my hand and spelled the door off. Bill smiled and stepped out of the cell, he opened his mouth to say something, but just then the landing crumbled out from under us and we went falling, but before we could hit the ground a large talon snatched us right out of the air. And sat us down outside as the whole bulding crumbed and was nothing left but a pile of rubble.
I fell down on my knees as Sirius stood behind be yelling and laughing his head off.
"Have you gone mad?" I asked him looking up at him as Piper sat down next to me and wrapped her arms around my shoulders. Sirius just laughed somemore.
"Look at it Harry," Sirius shouted,"there is no more Azkaban." He then gave a whooo and laughed, and when he caught sight of Bill he said. "Hey there, Bill fancy seeing you here." Bill just shook his head at him. Looking as if he was trying not to laugh.
Clarisse, Tyson, and Thanatos came walking over to us. I noticed that Clairsse had what looked like a black I-pad stuck down in her belt.
I have already thinked Clarisse, but I must think you guys also." Thanatos said. "I thank you for saving me."
"How do you feel, cousin?" Tyson asked, sitting down next to me. I grined at him.
"I'm fine." I told him. "Cousin," He grined from ear to ear.
"Oh, here you dropped this." Clarisse said to Thanatos, pulling out the black i-pad. "Way do you have thing anyways?"
"I need that to find all the dead that have exscaped the Underwold." Thanatos answered.
"So, on this thing is a list of people who should be dead." Clarisse said and she turned it all and started looking through the names. I wasn't really paying attention to them at first, I raised my hand and used the last bet of strength I had to summon my sword from the rubble.
"Without that I wouldn't be able to see who I need to get and take back to the Underworld." Thanatos said. And as I twisted my sword back into a wand, I suddenly remembered something and I looked over to Piper who smiled at me before kissing my shoulder and laying her head on it. I wrapped my hands around her waist and held her close to me, thinking she was about to get her heart broken, any mintue now Clarisse would stop being nosey and hand that death pad back to Thanatos and he would see my name on it.
"Piper, you know I love you right." I said. Piper raised her head and smiled at me.
"Of coures I do." She said. "And I love you too." She reached up and we kissed for a mintue, before I pulled back turned so I was facing her. I put my hands on either side of her face. And she smiled at me. I glanced past her to see Thanatos now talking to Nico, not looking at Clarisse who stood beside him looking through the names, then she suddenly stopped her eyes widened and she looked right up at me. I knew right then she had read my name on that thing. And I pulled Piper to me and huged her tight.
"Babe," I said holding her. I wanted to tell her for it would be a little easier on her when Thanatos took me. But I couldn't find the right words to say, so I reached in my pocket and pulled out her neckless, I had got her for her birthday and put it back where it belonged around her neck. We then gave each other a long passionate kiss.
"I am so glad you didn't have to give your life up." Piper said. When we finaly got done kissing and now had our arms wrapped around each other.
"I don't know what I would do if I lost you." My heart broke right there. And I looked back up to see Clarisse was watching us, then she glanced over at Thanatos saw he had he's back turned toward her still talking to Nico, then she looked back down at the I-pad and pressed something. I don't know what, but she then tapped Thanatos on the back and handed it to him.
"Thank you." He said taking it out of her hands. "Before you guys go I just have to make sure none of you are on here." I felt Piper stiffen in my arms. I think she just remember about the minstry. But then Thanatos frowned.
"I could of swear that one of you was suppose to be on here." He said. I looked up at him surprised then over at Clarisse and rasied my eyebrow, she glared at me. "I don't remember which one, but I thought..." Then he shrugged " Most off been thinking of someone else, I better get going I got a lot of dead people to find." He said.
"Hang on." I said. "Thanatos, since Clarisse freed you dose that mean monster will stay dead now, and you'll cose the doors of death so dead people won't get out."
"Monster should stay dead now." Thanatos said. "As to closing the doors of me that will take someone a lot stronger, and more powerful then I am."
"Who, Hades?" I asked. Thanatos just gave me this weird look, and disappeared into a black light.
"Well isn't he a cheery god." Sirius said. He came up behind Clarisse and Nico and through an arm around both their shoulders. (making Clarisse go red.) and grined. "Well my little kiddies you did it. I knew you would."
"Get off me." Clarisse grumbled and step out from under Sirius' arm. Sirius grined at her red face.
"Are you feeling ill." He asked in a teasing voice. "Your face is really red." He reached out and tried to touch her forhead, but she stepped back her face even redder and glared. Sirius just laughed. "I think someone has a crush."
"I do not." Clarisse snapped. Sirius laughed and put his arm around her. "Sorry, but I am too old for you." I could tell he was enjoying teasing her. Clarisse got even redder and pushed Sirius away, he stumbled and almost fell, but he just grined at her. "Beside, I am already taken."
I looked up at him and raised my eyebrow. "By who, dad?" I asked. "You don't have a girlfriend."
"Sally Jackson," Sirius said. Nico who had been taken a drink out of a water bottle spit it out and looked at Sirius as if he just annouced his death wish. Tyson too was staring at Sirius his eye wide.
"What?" I asked. Piper was laughing into my shoulder.
"Yes, the woman is madly in love with me." Sirius grined. I gave Sirius a Yeah-right-look, and he added. "She just dosen't know it yet."
"Dad, unless your life wish is to be killed by a son of Poseidon, I wouldn't go there." I told him, getting to my feet then helped Piper up. I then put my arm around her shoulder.
Sirius just waved his hand. ."Percy won't hurt me, he likes me." I just shook my head, Sirius sure was an idoit sometimes.
"As amusing as watching Sirius plot his own death is." Nico said. "We better get a move on if we are to make it back at camp before the monsters get there." I looked and saw the sun was starting to come up.
I turned to Draca who had been standing watching us. "Think you can get us to camp?"
"Yes, as long as I am not attack when they see us." Draca said.
"Don't worry, I'll call ahead and warn Annabeth not to let anyone attack us." I said And Draca nodded. After helping Piper on to Draca's back, I had went over to where the others had put our bags when they had jumped off Draca. I got into mine and pulled out my mirror.
"Annabeth Chase." I said in it, it only took a mintue before Annabeth's face was looking up at me.
"Percy and I have been so worried." Annabeth said. "You haven't called at all since you have been gone."
"Sorry, I forgot." I told her. "It's a long story I'll tell you when we get back to camp, we are on our way now."
"So you did it." Annabeth asked. "You saved, Piper and Alcyoneus didn't rise."
"I did save Piper." I said. "But Alcyoneus rose, but we took care of him, me, Nico, and Hades."
"Hades?" Annabeth asked.
"I'll expalin later." I told her. "Right now I need to talk to Percy is he there." Before she could answer me the mirror was taking out of her hand and Percy's smiling face suddenly appeared there.
"So, you saved your girl." he grined.
"Yes, listen we are on our way back to camp." I told him. "We don't have a boat any longer so we will be riding in on a draken, so don't let anyone attack us."
"Did you just say a draken?" He asked. I nodded.
"Yes, Draca is very nice and won't harm anybody unless she feels threaten so tell everone, okay." I said.
"Draca," Percy said. Then shook his head."Sure, I'll tell Chiron, and he'll let the camp know."
"Speaking of camp has the attack happened yet." I asked.
"No, but there getting closer." Percy said. "Annabeth and I are standing at the boader now, the monsters are in view, they look no bigger then little dotes, from where they are, but we can still see them so they'll be here by this after noon."
"We'll try our best to get there soon." I said. "Maybe I can send some other help. I'll talk to Remus Lupin from his mirror and see if he can't get the order to come help."
"We can use all the help we can get." Percy said. "The hunter can't be here into this after noon."
"Okay, I better go now." I told him. "See you when I get to camp." I disconnected him then grabed my bag to stand. And turned around to see Clarisse standing behind me holding her bag. She sneered at me then went to walk away, but I gabed her arm.
"My name was on there wasn't it?" I asked she didn't even have to ask what I was talking about. But instead she pulled her arm away. tossed me my knife back and said.
"We're even, now." And walked away.
A.N. Sorry if this chapter isn't very good and the fighting didn'tlast very long, but it's getting hard to think of ways for them to fight I haven't used aready, and sorry if Thanatos seemed I little o.c.
And I will be without the internet for about a week so I won't have the next chapter up into sometime next week.
