Chapter 10
Percy's POV
I was watching the new apprentices being taught hand to hand combat and getting totally pawned by their masters after watching them for some time I pushed Steve and Adam out the way saying, "let me show you how it's done"
I stood in front of Karl and Andrew with my hands in fists in front of my face, I stood there waiting for them to throw the first punch and Andrew did right for my face so I grabbed his wrist and punched him in the stomach then I threw him to the ground kicking him as he fell Karl then faked a punch to my face then went for my belly but I grabbed his hand before he could hit me and then bent his hand back when he was at my mercy I repeatedly punched him in the face with my other hand then I used the hand his hand was in to knock him out, dropping him to the floor I left going back to my quarters.
A few hours later one of Clarisse's guards came to my room and told me that she wanted to see me as soon as I was told I got the rest of the Fallen and we went to her office, "what do you need?" I asked as we walked through the door
"a mission perfect for training those new apprentices of yours" she said taking out a document
"what is this?" I asked
"the info Andrew extracted with those spies eleven months ago was encoded so we got our best analysts' working on it and we finally cracked the code and found out Aphrodite's location" she told us
"you want us to go and get her" I said
"exactly" she said
"ok where is she?" I asked
"Moscow" Clarisse told me
"Russia" I said
"no Idaho" she said
"well I have always wanted to go to Moscow" Andrew said
"well my comrades this will be easy but don't think it will be easy" I said in my best Russian accent
"time to go" Karl said, "ROAD TRIP!"
we travelled for at least a week until we finally hit Idaho the it was a day or two till Moscow, when we finally got to Moscow it was it was in ruins with fires blazing all over the place, "so where is Aphrodite?" Adam asked
"how about we try the giant castle made out of gold right there" Sam said pointing to a castle made out of solid gold
We got in to the castle with relative ease and then snuck about by crawling along the ceiling and using Karl to stay invisible, we crawled around for at least ten minutes but then we saw someone in light armour and a cape, "I will be going to see Aphrodite" he said to some guards following him, "leave me now"
As soon as he said that we followed him through a maze of corridors until we got to a long hall that splits at the end when we got to the other end there was a vault door and two guards, "open it" the guy said and the guards instantly opened it
When it was open we crawled in, the inside of the vault was lined with mirrors covering every inch of it and in the middle was Aphrodite chained to a chair forced to look at the mirror in front of her, the guy walked up to her and touched her face softly but she just bit at his fingers so in response he slapped her face, "don't you do that again" he said in a stern tone
"you're not my master" Aphrodite said I noticed she looked right at us then said, "when I get out I will kill you"
"that's not happening any time soon is it" the guy said pushing up her chin but Aphrodite just spit in his face so her roughly grabbed her neck
"listen you slut do that again and I will make your life so unbearable that you will beg for death at Kronos' feet" the guy said in an angry tone
"we'll see" she said
"we will" he said taking her face and roughly kissing her
"YOU FOUL MOUTHED BASTARD HOW DARE YOU I'M A GODDESS" she shouted at him as he left the room but once he was gone and the door shut she turned to us and said, "come on get me out now"
We jumped down from the ceiling and turned visible, "how did you know we were there?" I asked
"I could see the love" she said
"I have been told that I could hide my feeling from you" I said
"I never said it was your love…" she started but Sam interrupted
"we should get going" Sam said
"you're right" I told her, I turned around and knocked a rhythm on the door but on the last note I punched the door off taking out the two guards and getting to the end of the corridor, we ran to the end of the corridor but there were hundreds of guards coming from both sides
"we're going to die and on my first mission" Adam said
"we're not going to die and Aphrodite can't" I said shooting two streams of fire down both corridors I then ripped a hole in the wall In front of us and then jumped through it, great tip here if you are going to jump through a hole you just made check what's on the other side because that was a high drop, as we fell Aphrodite managed to teleport us to our transport, "thank you Aphrodite" I said getting everyone in before heading back to Austin.
When we got back to base I took Aphrodite to Clarisse's office and said, "one love goddess express delivery"
"well I almost expected you to fail" she said
"I'm the best of the best of the best of the best I don't fail" I said
"well that great I have another mission for you" she said
Luke's POV
I am going to be dead Aphrodite is free and the south west has fallen I will be foot wear, I was going out my mind on the verge of breaking down and crying in the corner but then all of a sudden Kronos' face appeared on my screen , "WHAT IS THIS!" he screamed showing me a picture of the hole in a wall the fallen used to escape
"a picture of a hole" I said scared as hell
"NO IT'S PICTURE OF WHAT I WILL THROW THE REST OF YOUR BODY THROUGH AFTER I HAVE SKINED YOU FOR SHOES, IF YOU DON'T KILL THE FALLEN!" he shouted
"yes master I will put everything on reclaiming the south west and finding the fallen" I said bowing to the screen
"good and make it soon because these sandals are getting old" he said signing off
"ANNABETH!" I shouted
"what" she said walking in to the room
"tell everyone in my sector that every male aged 16-38 must join the titan army and everyone else must make weapons for the army" I said
"I will get on with that" she said
"I still need more men" I though sitting on my bed
End of chapter 10
Well Luke is doomed no matter what he does so what will Luke do and can he catch the Fallen also whose love did Aphrodite detect, I don't know I make this up as I go along don't even ask me
