(A/N) Well it is April 21, 2012 there is 2 days before the flash back actually ends. This chapter should be interesting because the shit is going down! Please review!

Chapter 9 Reunited at last!

I awoke before everyone else and noticed that it was 8:30. I guess that fight wore everyone out because even Percy who never sleeps much anyways was still asleep. So I decided I would go to the pool and just lay out in the water until everybody woke.

I went down stairs to see that there was no one down there but a man Bermuda shorts and a nice fishing t-shirt I knew this man to be my father. Lord Neptune was sitting there like he was concentrating on something I walked up to him and put my hand on his shoulder and he flinched. Somehow I suppose he didn't since my presence.

I asked my father "What are you doing here Olympus is supposed to be closed?"

My father laughed at this and said, "Why its good to see you to my boy! But no thanks to Lord Jupiter Olympus may be closed but the Underworld nor Atlantis is."

This seem to make since so I asked, "Why are you here?"

"I've come to talk to you about your power."

"My power?"

"Yes my boy you are quite powerful even as powerful as Percy. Now the other gods aren't so happy with that because they know that my sons are the two most powerful demigods."

"What about Bailey and Caitlin they are twins shouldn't they be as powerful as me and Percy, or Jason and Thalia?"

"How did you know about Jason and Thalia."

"Dreams and honestly since you are a god you don't happen to have the power to zap my dreams away do you?"

My father laughed at this, "I'm sorry my boy but sometimes dreams are quite helpful especially if you are on a quest."

Then Percy came up from behind us and asked, "What dreams?"

My father then stood up and said, "Orion will fill you in I must get back to Atlantis before Jupiter notices I'm gone."

With that my father disappeared into a golden bright light. My brother then asked me, "Did Bailey ever wake up and talk to you?"

"Yes she came to me while I was swimming last night she was a little nervous but I filled her in so she just went right back upstairs and went to sleep."

"Good lets go wake them up so we can tell them about your dream."

We went upstairs and opened the door to our room but for some reason I felt very uneasy. It was almost like I could since what was behind me. Percy froze two. I told Percy, "Go get them up I will keep it busy."

He nodded and ran into the room shouting at everybody to get up. I pulled out my sword and did a back flip off the upstairs railing that over looked the pool and turned around to see the one monster I never wanted to run into. Enchidna the mother of all monsters.

She looked at me and said, "Why hello there young demigod it so ironic to see you here."

I looked at her like she was crazy and asked, "Why?"

"Because on your idiot brothers first quest I met him at the Arch in Missouri."

"My brother is no idiot and I will kill you right here and now I'll send you back to your former mate in Tartrus."

She snarled at me and charged like a really pissed off bull thing. See I don't really know how to describe her she was about 10 feet tall and she was muscular and she looked like a normal human being but, it was her eyes that threw me off they kept changing she radiated with power. Then she did something I hate when monsters do she brought out a sword.

We fought for a moment until she back me up against a corner and tried to decapitate me but the Percy ran out side of the room finally I was starting to think he wasn't coming. But unfortunately he was better off not coming because Enchidna mauled the Pillars and upstairs railing fell through and since our luck is horrible that's what Percy was standing on. So he collapsed and is now buried in the rubble.

Now I was thinking shit Percy s down for the count but then Bailey shadow traveled and appeared right next to me. Reyna however couldn't fight because she was trying to get Percy out. Bailey gave me a smile and said "Lets take this bitch back to giants in pieces!"

I nodded and we charged her she then of course now had two swords and I was starting to wonder where she was hiding all her weapons because every time I disarmed her a new weapon would appear. Finally we had her backed into a corner and she was doomed.

Enchidna then looked at us and then looked at Bailey and smiled while saying, "Why my darling children can't we settle this nicely. After all I try to be friendly to those who don't have mothers."

I was wondering what she meant but she continued, "After all my dear I was the one to kill your mother my husband Typhon came to me in a dream and said we will strike them in the heart. That's one of the reasons Pluto almost didn't fight in the war with gods because Jupiter knew what was going to happen and he didn't try to stop it.

Bailey froze and I knew something bad was about to happen but then Bailey got a very pissed look on her face and charged. Well f my life I knew something bad was going to happen because, as soon as she charged Enchidna smacked her so hard backwards she went flying into a wall and she was down for the count.

Enchidna licked her nails and said "Two down one to go."

Lets just say this didn't sit well with me so I charged at her two. I fought with anger and hatred she had possible killed my brother and my girlfriend's sister she was not going to get away with this. I was glowing with energy and power. I back Enchidna up into the wall for the last time and thrusted at her face and she dodged barely. Then I came around with a spinning hook kick and she went down to the ground.

She was coughing up golden blood or ichor. She then spat "How is that possible she has not blessed a warrior in three thousand years?"

I then picked up Enchidna rose my sword to her throat and said, "Who blessed me?"

Enchidna laughed at this, "Why my boy she hasn't revealed herself so I will not reveal her yet?"

I then got an idea and I would probably make me feel bad but she was a monster so whatever, "Alright if you wont tell me then I guess a little bit of heat will loosen your-"

As I said this an arrow flew through her head and her head went rolling on the ground. I turned to see Bailey having a bow and arrow in her hand and Percy had finally been recovered by Reyna and he seemed to be fine but a rather pissed off looking person.

Bailey ran up to me and asked, "Are you okay?"

I was trying to stay calm but dammit I need answers so I said, "Why did you kill her I had her by the throat with a sword she had answers I needed."

"Orion I'm sorry I didn't know I wouldn't have killed her if I would've known." She looked truly so sorry so I dropped it.

I walked over to Percy and asked, "How are you feeling?"

He looked at me and shook his head and said, "Are you crazy your asking me how I'm feeling when you just took on the mother of all monsters by your self and you made it look easy."

I looked at my brother and said, "Look I don't know man but Enchidna was talking about this person who hasn't blessed a warrior in three thousand years and shes blessed me any idea who that might be?"

Percy nodded his head and there was a uneasy silence. Then I broke the silence by saying, "Bailey, I don't think Enchidna really killed your parents I think she was just saying that to anger you hoping you would do something rash."

Bailey dropped her head and said, "Well it worked I did do something rash that almost got both of us killed I'm sorry."

I put out my hand on her hand and said, "Its alright I don't know if could've won if you hadn't been hit because in case no one has noticed the angrier I get the more powerful I am. Like when I fought Mars he was barely winning but when he started taunting me it got ugly for him in a hurry."

My brother said, "Way to have a big head."

"I'm just saying maybe that's the key to my powers maybe I'm blessed by the god of anger or something I don't know."

Reyna who was being offly quiet said, "As far as I know there isn't a god or goddess of anger Mars kind of controls your anger but I seriously doubt that Mars would bless you."

We all seem to wander on this when I finally remembered my dream. I told everyone about it and Percy was starting to look excited that he was going to get to see his long lost girlfriend and his best friend's. But Reyna looked a little anxious and Bailey looked sad because she knew as well as I that Caitlin was being torchered.

After a few minutes of silence I said, "Alright so this is what has to be done we have to pack up and leave and then we will go from here to Mount Rushmore. We should be able to be there in about 4 or 5 hours."

But then Bailey got an idea and said, "Well since Percy's car is pretty much totaled after being hit by the minotaur why don't we all get in the car and I can shadow travel us all there car included."

I thought on this and said, "Won't you have to be able to see where your going?"

"Yes but I've been there before I will be pretty much wiped out but I should be able to stand and stuff from there we can go get a hotel room and then give me and hour or two of rest and then we can go to the national park where I bet we will find you friends."

This seemed like a full proof plan everybody else seemed to think so to so we all agreed that was the plan and we went and packed for our long journey ahead.

After about 30 minutes of packing we were finally ready to leave we all gathered around Percy's car and Bailey said "Everybody grab hands and I will put my foot on the car."

Before she shadow traveled us all away I asked, "Have you every shadow traveled so much before?"

She smiled and said, "No but I've been practicing a lot so don't worry."

When she said that we all looked at each other nervously but before we could protest we were all zapped to Mount Rushmore.

Now I don't recommend shadow traveling if you don't like roller coasters because this was like the mother of all super coasters. We all landed pretty hard and I looked up to see Bailey who had passed out of course. But Percy's car was here Percy and Reyna seemed okay so as long as Bailey wakes up we will all be okay.

After a few minutes of discussing what to do they voted me to carrying Bailey the rest of the way. Go figure right? So we got in the car and drove for about 15 minutes until we saw a little Best Western end so we decided to just get somewhere to stay the night. We got there and rested up for a little while we did it mostly in silence its was strangely comfortable.

After about an two hours Bailey woke up and looked around and asked, "Where are were?"

I told her, "We are in a small Best Western maybe 10 minutes away from The national park."

She asked, "How did I get here?"

Percy pointed out, "Well he carried you of course."

She raised an eyebrow at that and said, "Looks like you just like to carry me."

I blushed at this and everybody laughed and this but then her expression turned serious and she said, "Alright lets get started."

I asked, "Where do we start?"

Reyna came up and said, "Isn't it obvious we will go to the peak and hopefully run into them there."

I love how she said it like it was common knowledge. But with that we all left the room and went out to the car.

We drove for about 15 minutes and then got to Mount Rushmore National Park. Reyna of course pointed out the obvious and said "that's the best view and the highest legal point in Mount Rushmore."

I looked at her and said, "No shit Sherlock."

We climbed for about 30 minutes and finally got to the top. We looked around up there for about 20 minutes when the worse thing in the world could have happened. Six of the biggest monsters I've ever seen appeared. The chimera, the Sphinx, Landon, The Caucasian Eagle, The Crommyonian Sow, and the Colchian Dragon.

We all drew our weapons Reyna said, "Guys were dead these are the children of Typhon and Enchidna."

I tried to optimistic but the monsters weren't attacking yet for some reason. I decided to say one last word to everybody, "It was a pleasure fighting with you guys for most likely the last time I hope to see all of you in the Esylum."

I was just about to charge into battle when Jason Grace, Thalia Grace, Annabeth Chase and Nico Di Angelo stepped out. Jason stepped forward and said, "Don't count us all out just yet."

I looked at the former Praetor of the First Legion in awe. But before we all die I decided to take charge, "Jason, Thalia Take Landon. Annabeth take the Sphinx. Percy take the Chimera, Nico take The Eagle. Bailey take the fat pig. I will take the Colchian Dragon." I said that with as much confidence as I could.

Right before I charged into battle I yelled "FOR THE GODS"

With that I charged the giant dragon. He seemed to be taken a back by this because he didn't do anything. When I got to him so fast I stabbed him the foot. I jumped on his back and tried to work my way up but he was fast he went straight up. I climbed up to his back and I was almost on his neck when he turned around and tried to bite my head off he barely missed. He started to dive down and he did a little cork screw to try and shake me off but I was not going to fall. I finally got up to him and he tried to bite me again but I shoved my sword straight through his mouth. This must've hurt him because we were plummeting through the air but we were going to land in water. How lucky!

After a few seconds of falling for what felt like an eternity I jumped off his back and created a water cushion to help my fall. It kind of helped but I know if I wasn't a son of Neptune I would've died. I looked around for my monster but I didn't see him so assumed that he was dead. I surfaced to see the fight was still going on. It looked like me and Percy were the only ones to take out our enemy's at this point. Percy and Annabeth were now fighting the sphinx and It looked like they were about to kill him.

Nico had just cut the Eagles head off so he went to go help Bailey with the Sow. So I started climbing. After a few minutes I had reached the top of the mountain to see that the sow was dead as well. I looked over to see Jason and Thalia still fighting the dragon and it was not going well. Thalia got side swiped and she was now unconscious. Jason was still throwing up a good fight but he was looking tired. Finally Jason summoned some lightning to try and take out Landon and he passed out. We thought that surly the beast was dead but after a few seconds the beast roared triumphantly and flew into the sky.

He landed back on the ground next to Bailey and Nico and took them both down by charging at them they weren't knocked out but they were incapacitated. So that only left me, Percy, and Annabeth.

Percy shouted to Annabeth, "Take as many as you can me and Orion will take Landon."

Annabeth didn't look happy about this but she ran up to my brother and kissed him. Poor Percy looked like he had gotten hit by a bus. It was hilarious and I would've laughed if we weren't about to die.

"Are you done Landon didn't want to interrupt." I said sarcastically.

He blushed and nodded. He ran over to me and said, "Hey man no matter what happens right here I love you."

I nodded and said, "I love you to man but don't kill us just yet."

With that Landon charged forward me and Percy both rolled in different direction and tried to get under him. After just a few seconds we were both under him which we decided wasn't such a good place but we both got deep cuts on him and then he started stomping around and creating problems. But instead of rolling away like I did Percy jumped on his back and tried to take him out. Well Landon didn't like this idea very much. So he took his tail and hit Percy and the side of the head with it. I didn't know he could do that and I don't think Percy did either. I know he has the curse of Achilles but that still had to hurt like a bitch. He flew pretty good ways before he hit the ground hard and layed there unconscious.

I knew at this point I was probably dead. Landon looked up to the sky and roared the loudest roar I've ever heard then he looked at me and acted like what are you going to do now punk? I was so mad he possibly killed my brother and my friends even if I die I will make sure this beast goes with me. I yelled at the top of my lungs and I felt the hardest pull in my stomach yet. The ground exploded below Landon and he flew up a little bit but he didn't stand a chance. Because of what was chasing him. I had brought Lava from the core and I intended on killing him with it. Even If I died with him the dragon charged me and I knew what had to be done. I threw the lava right in the air above me and the dragon charged me and I slid under him even though I knew it wouldn't help all the lava fell on us and I screamed in pain. My last thought was mom it's such a beautiful day.

Percy's Point of View

I awoke and we were back into the hotel at the Best Western. I looked around to see everybody looking at me. Like they were surprised I was alive.

We sat there in silence until Annabeth came up to me and put her hand on my cheek and said, "I'm so glad your not dead seaweed brain."

I smiled up at her and looked around the room again and saw Nico my best friend and child of Hades. Bailey Collins Caitlin's sister and child of Pluto. Then I saw Thalia and Jason grace Children of Zeus and Jupiter. Then I saw Reyna daughter of Minerva and Praetor of the first Legion.

I kept looking around the room and something hit me Orion wasn't in here. I jumped up and everybody flinch in my alarm. I took out rip tide and asked, "Where is Orion?"

Annabeth put her hand on my arm which probably wasn't the smartest thing to do but it did calm me down. She said, "Percy I know this is going to be hard but-"

I held up his hand and said, "No he can't be dead."

Everybody looked down at the floor ashamed of themselves. I fell to the floor and yelled "NO!"

He was my only sibling it was my job to protect him. He risked his life to save ours. I asked, "What happened?"

Annabeth said, "When Landon took us all down Orion made a last stand against him and he brought Lava out from the core of the Earth and killed himself and the Dragon."

I started shaking and tears were coming out of my eyes. I had lost my only sibling and it was my fault. I wasn't strong enough to save him. I looked at my friends and said, "No matter what anybody says my brother died a hero. He was 3 times the hero of any of us he killed himself to save all of us. We owe it to him to go and save Caitlin and I will fight to my last breath to get her back." Everyone nodded in agreement. But for the rest of the night they sat there in silence.

(A/N) This was a hard chapter to write but I think it was good Please review it would meant the world to me.
