Night POV
I heard a horn blow, and I assumed that meant that the fight was to begin. The Hunters pointed their bows at all of us, surrounding us. We didn't panic, we were used to being surrounded.
One girl with short, bleach blonde hair shot an arrow, aiming for my shoulder. Take out who they presumed to be the strongest first, I guess.
I leaned back, the arrow sailing over my shoulder, and Sunrise, who was in the path of the arrow, did a backflip over the arrow, landing with a sword at the throat of the hunter. The Hunter stormed off the stage, and sat down, along with 5 others, who gotten swords to the throats.
A few girls all came at Dawn with swords, but she ducked, slid under their legs, and pulled out her knife from under her clothes, holding it to their throats one at a time.
You probably see the theme of going for the throats. Yes, we were trained to go for the throats. It was the best way to spar with others, since there is no argument if there is a sword at your throat.
DB ducked underneath an arrow, and shot two arrows (so close in timing that he seemed to shoot them at the same time) and hit two Hunters in the shoulder. They walked off, holding their arms, and got medical attention.
Sunrise and Sunset were battling 5 hunters, all using swords. They fought back to back, and unarmed each hunter. They all sulked off, weaponless.
Midnight and Dusk were fighting, communicating perfectly. Midnight said duck, Dusk would duck. Dusk would say to go left, Midnight would go left. They fought seamless.
Twilight was taking on 4 hunters, and winning. One shot an arrow, and she dipped her shoulder letting it puncture the Hunter opposite the Hunter. She put a sword to the neck of the shooter, and then immediatly went to next Hunter, who tried to hit her with her bow. Twi ducked, letting the Hunter hit her fellow adopted daughter of Artemis. Twi took care of the last one. Twilight loved to let others hurt their own; it was her favorite method.
After a while, there was just one Hunter left; Thalia. She smiled, and so did I. She tapped her silver bracelet, and a giant shield appeared. It was so hideous, I wanted to look away. But that was the trick.
Medusa sneered at him, as Thalia pulled out her sword. She came at me, swinging and swiping. I easily blocked, and got in a few scrapes on the lead Hunter. She let out a cry, and I could see the Hunters smirking. Clouds swirled overhead.
The other warriors were standing ready, flanking me. They knew I didn't need any help, but they were ready just in case.
As me and Thalia hit swords one last time, I felt electricity tingling at my arms. My eyes widened in realization, and I pulled back just as volts shot out of her sword. She was a child of Zeus; of course she would use her powers.
The electricity would have sent me flying into the forest, but I pulled back so it only pushed me to the ground. I rolled out of the way, dazed, as Thalia tried pointing her sword at my chest. I got up, and noticed my hood fell back just a little, revealing the feint outline of my hood. I rolled away, once more, as
Dawn pulled out her knife, ready to defend me. I forward rolled into standing position, and readjusted my hood. Thalia swiped at me, and I swiped back, hitting her arm. She was about to yell, but I managed to feign left, hit right, and disarm her sword using a basic maneuver. I couldn't remember learning it, but it just happened. Thalia rubbed her wrist, as her monster shield turned back into a bracelet.
She seemed upset that her electricity trick didn't work, but she accepted her loss gracefully. She stuck out her hand, and I held mine out accepting the shake. She caught her breath and quickly regained her grace. Smiling, she ran off to the rest of her hunters.
I looked around to the rest of our warriors, and noticed the usual scene.
Midnight had his arms wrapped around Dusk, and she was smiling. Their swords were stabbed into the ground next to them. DB stood behind Dawn, who was twirling her knife around her finger. Yeah, we were immortal but we were all still ADHD.
Twilight stood next to Sunrise, who was pushing Sunset away from her. I nodded towards Chiron, who seemed to be surprised by how fast we took out the Hunters.
"And the winner is The Warriors of Chaos!" He announced, and the camp didn't know how to react. Then there was a slow clap. Yes, one of those cliché clapping. Then they went wild. Even the Hunters clapped. I saw Thalia sneak over to Annabeth, whispering something in her ear. She nodded, and was obviously holding back tears. Nico nodded, and said something that I couldn't make out. They all turned to me nervously, and I waved at them.
A silent tear streamed down Annabeth's face, and she flashed out. Thalia looked at Nico, who nodded. She ran off.
"Congratulations, Warriors," a voice hissed, evilly. I looked around, sword drawn. The rest of my family did the same. The campers nervously shrunk into their seats (Minus the rowdy Ares children). The Hunters notched silver arrows, ready to use their arsenal. Chiron notched his own bow, still pointing it to the ground.
"Show yourself," he called, his voice drifting.
"No, I don't think I will," it called. It's voice seemed to be coming from all directions, snaking its way to us.
"Coward!" called a ballsy camper. Probably that Ares leader-Emma.
"Hush, foolish god spawn. I'm here because I here that there are Warriors here. Warriors of Chaos. Here to help the half-bloods in a war against me, along with my other giants," it called. We all looked around, unaware of whom was speaking.
"You see, I have knowledge of you kids," it hissed.
"What knowledge!?" I demanded.
"Knowledge you don't even know," it taunted.
"What. Knowledge!?" I demanded once more, a little louder.
"Knowledge. Of your past," It laughed evilly, and I looked at the other Warriors. The laugh died off, and we nervously looked around. The voice from the air had vanished.
That's when Dawn screamed. Dawn never screamed in terror.
