Percy's POV

Me and Jason were going at it like demons, he would go left I would go right, he would swing I would block, I would punch him he would kick me; it was a crazy mess going on. I swung at him and let out an arch of power out at Jason, he rolled under it and swung his at me shooting an arch of thunder at me, I would jump above it. We both HST into the air and all that could be heard was the clash of metal, he jabbed at me with his Gladius but I parried then kick him in his shoulder making him back up so I could get some room, I charged and brought my sword up letting an energy arch come out of it, Jason charged me and brought his sword down letting thunder come out of it.

They clashed and the energy in my sword went into the air and the energy in Jason sword went into the ground, me and Jason were at a standstill, trying to overpower each other and Jason wasn't giving up. I put pressure on my sword and he struggle a little trying to keep me from winning, he started to push back and now I was struggling, I put more power into it and we were equal again. "Look…like your… not messing around anymore" I said between breath as with a smirk on my face, "Because….I refuse to let you…... embarrass me again" he said with anger in his voice. Then we both backed up at least five feet, we were about to charge again then a straight black blast was shot between us and we both stopped where we were and traced to source of the blast.

We saw two guys standing there one pointing his figure at us he must've been the one who fired at us, the first guy was about 6ft and was well built, he was wearing a leather jacket and some black jeans, his skin was pale and his eyes were pure black and he had pitch black hair, he had a stern face and a scars all over it. He had black sword in his hand about 6ft long, black smoke would rise from his body like it was a part of him. The second guy was 6'2 and also well-built but his muscle showed out more, he was wearing a muscle shirt and basketball shorts, he has more of a tan color, he had a smirk on his face and three long scars on his face, he had red hair and a giant clever on his back, and it was 7ft long and 3ft in width.

"Who are you and what do you want?" Jason asked, the guy with the red hair disappeared, me and Jason turned around and blocked a hit from a giant clever. The guy was strong, he lifted his clever again to bring it down on us, but me and Jason spun around each other and I kicked the guy with red hair in the face and Jason kicked him in the stomach. The guy flew into the ground causing a giant crater, then Jason tried to slice at me but I ducked and jumped backwards, "What the hell Jason, you really think that this is the time for that" I yelled at him.

"We are in the middle of a fight and I won't let anyone stop me from sticking my sword into your heart" Jason said as he got in his ready stance, "A brats one and two when you done arguing I'd be happy to fight you when you're ready" the dude with the black hair said. "Who are you" I asked as I examined him closely, "Me I am the sum of all the monsters you two have killed over the years, I am the darkness that scares you at night, I am the fear that stocks you everywhere you go I am Shadow" he said with an amused smile on his face as he started to circle us.

For some reason I couldn't move, my legs felt like led and heart was beating so fast I thought it would pop out of my chest, I looked over at Jason and it looked he was having the same problem, his eyes were wide and he was twitching. "Wh...at...the hell...did you...do...to us?" I managed to say, "Oh nothing you're just losing your sense of bravery and I replaced it with fear, now you're gonna die" he said as he started walking towards us with his sword out. Move, Move, Move, Move, dam you body move, I was trying to think of a way to get out of this without dying, and then it hit me. He put fear in my place of bravery, then I'll trade it with something else; pain, "Jason...pain" I said to him, you're probably wondering why I told him that. Well because if anyone is gonna kill him it's gonna be me, anyway it took all my will power to do this, but I threw my hand into my thigh and made an ice blade grow and pierced my leg and made it grow through it, I shouted in pain and then I glared at Shadow. I HST behind shadow and swung my sword at him but he ducked and he tried to swing at my head with his sword but I caught it on my arm and spun around and elbowed him in the stomach.

Shadow backed up a little and just smiled at me, "Looked like your just as strong as my boss predicted and how about you Jason" he asked as he turned around. Jason was still not moving and Shadow charged him, I was about to go in again to attack Shadow, but his friend with the red hair appeared in front of me blocking my way, "Explosion hold him while I test Jason" Shadow said. "Fragor amet bomb" the guy Explosion said, then he tried to leg sweep me but I hopped in the air, but as soon as I that he hit me in the stomach with this red orb that was in his hand. Then it was like everything was going in slow motion because I was flying back with the red orb on my stomach like it was stuck to me, then I saw the guy explosion smiling then he put up his hand up and it was in a fist, then he opened it as soon as he did that I realized what he was doing. As fast as I could I made a wall of ice over the ball, then it exploded on me and I was falling towards the ground, I thought I was about to hit the ground but then I saw there was a lake under me and before I fell in I smiled.

Jason's POV

I was standing here waiting for Shadow to charged me, yeah I couldn't move but as soon as Shadow got close enough I was going to make a thunderbolt come down and hit us both, by doing that the pain would let me move and I could get some damage on this guy. Your probably think that thunder can't hurt me, but your wrong lighting can't hurt me but thunder can just not as much, Shadow charged and as soon as he was about to hit me I called down a thunderbolt and it struck both of us I thought. Shadow had HST out the way just in time not to get hit, me on the other hand was hit and man did it hurt, Shadow just smirked at me "That plan would've worked if I had been dumb enough to come that close to you" he said while shaking his head. "Let's see how you handle this" I said as HST on top of him and brung my sword down on him, he put his sword up and blocked it but I rolled over him and hurry up and turned around and kneed him in his kidney. He jumped backward and charged me, I swung my sword and letting it be powered by thunder and it met his, but my arms hurt from when I got hit by the thunderbolt and he easily over powered me. My sword flew out of my hand and I jumped back, Shadow charged me and tried to stab me but I moved side wards a little and the sword went past me and I kicked his hand making the sword fly out of his hand and did a backflip to get some distance. I couldn't do this very long, I was getting tired and my injuries were too severe to keep going at this pace.

Shadow was about to charge again, but the guy Explosion flew past me and crashed into Shadow, but he caught him. Then Percy appeared next to me looking completely healed, dammit he must have been knocked into that lake, Percy had some water surrounding his hand and he touched my arm and immediately the water spread through my body and healed all my wounds and reenergized me. I looked at Percy confusingly "Why are you helping me" I said with confused look on my face, "Jason if we're going to survive this fight, then we have to work together, because we both know that we can't take them without each other" He said while looking at Shadow and Explosion with a simple look on his face. He pulled out my sword and offered it to me, I took it and nodded my head, "Percy Jackson I got to say you're something else" I said as I got in my ready stance "And you're not" Percy said as he got into his. "Oh one more thing when this is over we go back to enemy's and try to kill each other agreed" Percy said with a smirk, "Deal" I said with a smirk. Shadow looked at us and smiled "Look like you to have come up with truce to fight us" Shadow said then he snapped his figure and warrior that looked like ninja's hopped out of Shadow's shadow, there was about 60 of them and they all had swords and were completely black.

"Nico, Reyna come here" Percy shouted and they both appeared beside him, and pointed there weapon's at me and looked at Percy confusingly, then saw the small army of shadows behind them and understood immediately and turned towards the shadows, I called Thalia and Annabeth and the same thing happened. They all looked beat up; Annabeth had a cut on her right arm and left leg and bruises on her face and arms, Thalia shirt was burned at the bottom and she had a burn mark on her shoulder and she had a cut on across left thigh and had a bruise on the side of her face. Reyna had a cut across her rib cage and bruises on her face and she had a small cut on her face, Nico was smoking literally and his hair was standing on end, he had a burn mark on his arm like he been shot at but it had missed, his shirt was torn in halve and he had a black eye.

Percy saw their condition to "Plerumque sanitatis" he said and rain appear around us but the drops were glowing a sea green color and they started to heal them, I felt all there Vises rise higher like they just got stronger, then I remember what Athena told me, that when were injured and get healed are strength increases. All their eyes widen like they just found out something, then mine widen and Percy's, turns out we all just unlocked a new power. Shadow looked at all of us and started to count "1, 2,3,4,5, and 6, okay" he whistled and 4 more guys appeared at his side.

One of them had black hair and was built like a football player, he was tall about 6'2 and he had a crocked teeth, he didn't have a shirt on but he had black shorts, he was dark skin and he was hairy, he had a war hammer with a double bladed axe on the other end. The other three were girls, they must have been triplets because they all looked alike the only difference was that was that they had different hair color and they had different weapon. They were all pretty and had athletic figures, the first one had black hair and a spear that had a point at both ends, the second one had brown hair and had a sword with a dagger combo, and the last one had blonde hair and carrier a two double sided dagger.

"Meet my fellow five generals, me being the 6th of course" Shadow said as he smiled, "Nico, raise some undead to fight those shadows so they don't get in the way of the big fight" Percy told Nico. Nico closed his eyes and started concentrating hard then his Vis aura started to grow bigger and bigger than it lowered down into nothing, Nico almost fell on the ground, but Percy caught him "Nice job buddy here" Percy said as about 100 skeleton warrior infused with Nico Vis grew out the ground. Percy put his hand on his head that was covered in water and healed him. Nico got up and thanked Percy, "Attack but don't kill them remember our orders" Shadow said with authority in his voice, and with that war broke out. Shadow attacked Percy, and they started fighting, dammit I wanted to fight Shadow then that guy Explosion appeared and tried to punch me but I ducked and punched him in his stomach than backed up, the guy Explosion didn't even pretended like it hurt, he must have been holding back when it was just me and Percy fighting them.

Nico was fighting the big guy with the hammer/axe, Annabeth was fighting the girl with blonde hair, Thalia was fighting the girl with black hair, Reyna was fighting the one with brown hair and the skeletons and shadows were fighting each other. Vises were erupting all over the field; I didn't really think about the people we were fighting they were using Vis, where did they learn it? I blocked another hit from Explosion and then he kicked me in the stomach. Well at least I won't be bored, and then he came at me again and tried to punch me in the stomach. I took it and grabbed his arm and yanked him closer to me and grabbed his face then I made lighting come down in strike me making my body a conductor and making the lighting more powerful sended lighting into his body and threw him into a tree. He got up and just dusted himself off and charged again.

Percy's POV

I was fighting with shadow dammit this guy was strong, I kicked him in the chest and brought my sword down on him but he rolled to the side and pressed his two figures into my side and I was sent flying, I coughed up a little blood when I landed; Shadow HST above me and held out both his hands and shot a rain of black energy. "At venti" I shouted as I slid my hand in front of me, and an icy blast countered his attack, I hopped up and tackle him into the air and head butted him, we both jumped back and I threw some ice stars at him. He just hit them with his fist and shattered them into pieces, we both charged at each other and started dancing with are sword, and I twirled riptide around my back in a whipping motion flicking my wrist and he did a spinning slash are swords met and we both fought for power.

"Percy you want to know something very interesting" he said through gritted teeth as he was still pushing for power, "Not really, because I rather beat your ass first" I said with a serious look on my face. He leaned in a little more and whispered into my ear "It has something to do with you and Annabeth precious past relationship" he said as I could feel him smile, my anger flared "Vertex" I whisper so only he could hear. I felt my muscle pop through my shirt, I felt my senses come into near perfection, I felt the power pump through my veins, then boom; my power erupted blowing Shadow and anyone else surrounding me. I activated my second level of Vis, Shadow was getting off the ground where he was blown and I charged at him, he was on one knee by time I got to him; I stepped on his knee and did a spinning kick to his jaw. He flew the other way and I HST where he was headed and caught by his shirt and slammed him into the ground, I threw him in the air with all my strength and stuck riptide in the ground, I was about to use my new Vis power.

I hopped in the air and put my hands at my side in an open palm position, Shadow was still heading up from when I threw him, I was going so fast I past him and when I got far enough behind him I turned around. "Pierce the heaven with your strength, Unguis Ice penetrabile" I shouted and I aimed it at Shadow, my hands started glowing and the light kept getting brighter and brighter, then when Shadow came into close enough range I put my hands in front of me and let out all energy I stored into that attack out. It all happened in a flash, a blue light shot out of my hand and hit Shadow he was sent flying to the ground with it still on his back; he hit the ground making a giant crater. Then my beam solidified and became ice, it was in the shape of a fang and was so cold it started to snow with in a five mile radius.

I HST to the ground right next to where my fang made contact with the ground, I saw that my ice fang had actually went further into the ground than I thought, I saw blood everywhere and I thought it must have went right through Shadow killing him. I turned around and was walking away when I heard ice cracking behind me, then my ice fang lit up inside with black energy. Than boom it exploded shooting random giant pieces of ice of everywhere, I was knocked back on my ass, and then I saw Shadow walking out of the crater. His shirt and jacket had been turn in halve and it looked like he had a broken arm and a bruise was appearing on is cheek, his skin was blue, his pants where covered in frost, hone of his combat boots were missing, he had random cuts all over his body, but the worst part is the big hole in the middle of his body that I could see all the way through, he was holding his hand over it.

"Not…bad Jackson…. Not bad at all" he said as he started coughing up blood, he sank to his knees and showed me a hellish smile. I looked at him with pure disgust in my eyes, "You owe me some information" I said as I walked over to him and held him by his collar. "You haven't beaten me yet" Shadow said still showing me that insane grin. "What are you talking about? You have a giant hole through your body, you're finished" I said with certainty in my eyes, "Am I, am I really Percy" than he grabbed me by my neck. I was trying to resist but he was to strong, he started to lift us off the ground and he was still holding my neck and he was squeezing harder. Finally he stood straight up and we were both on are feet, he lifted me until my feet were dangling in the air, "W…where is …this power…coming from, Im….in my second level of …Vis" I managed to cough out, "Hahahaha that puny level of power could never defeat me, I passed that level years ago and have reached a new level of power." Shadow said as he started laughing evilly.

This wasn't good he was getting stronger, how could I ever think I could beat this guy, he jumped into the air so everyone could see us. "Look, look at your strongest warrior Perseus Jackson sitting here helplessly in my hand, I have defeated him and showed him a mere taste of power" Shadow shouted so loud that everyone stopped fighting and looked at us. "Let him go" I heard Reyna yell and I felt heard come closer to me, Shadow just raised his hand and a black beam hit her sending her to the ground unconscious. "Reyna…no" I whispered, Shadow looked me straight in my eyes, "I don't have time for you to train, and your too much fun for you to kill, so I'm gonna help you out, and you can decide who is the warrior I will face you or Jason." Shadow said with a huge grin on his face.

Then we HST to Jason and Shadow grabbed him with his other hand, then he HST back into place, Jason try to fight but Shadow only squeezed harder on his neck, Jason finally calmed down and listen to him. After he told him what he told me Jason looked at him with anger in his eyes. Shadow brought both of us closer to him and whisper in are ears "Transformatio in potestate vestra est divinum esse et fieri, nunc dui iaculis pretium multiplicis potestatis sunt moriuntur, I'll be waiting" he said then an enormous pain entered me and Jason's world, he punch both of us in the stomach and we both plummeted to the ground unconscious.

Wow right no one saw that coming did they Jason and Percy come together to defeat a common enemy, but how strong is Shadow, Who is his master, What do they have against Percy and Jason, What is the secret Shadow has for Percy, What is the gift Shadow gave Percy and Jason. I'm going to put a poll on my page rather Percy and Jason stay friends, Stay enemy's, Don't bother each other anymore.
