Hey guys, sorry I didn't post yesterday, I was busy, but I hope this will do. As always, I don't own Percy Jackson, Kane Chronicles, or any other Rick Riordan books because I am not Rick Riordan. Enjoy.

Cole's POV

We were in the Big House and it has been a few hours since the incident with Festus.

"Listen guys," Luna said. "We need stronger reinforcements, some people that may, possibly when joined up with us, be able to defeat the Divine Conquerors and by extension, Tiberius."

"But who?" asked Chase.

"Well there's Amos Kane, the strongest magician alive." Luna stated.

We had explained Egyptian mythology to Leo shortly after the incident.

"Well, if the House of Life is as powerful as you say, Amos possibly failing could cause it to collapse, which could compromise our most powerful ally." I stated.

"I might know someone." Leo said, gaining the our attention.

"Percy Jackson."

"Wait, isn't Percy Jackson in Greece." Chase asked.

"Well, no. After he graduated from college, he traveled across the world, fighting all kinds of monsters." Leo said. "But if we find him and the four of us team up with him, we may be able to defeat Tiberius and his two servants."

"From what I heard," Chase said. "Percy is now so much more powerful that he was when he was on his journey with the Seven, making him one of the most powerful demigods in existence."

"Sounds like the guy we need," Luna said. "How do we find him?"

"That's the tricky part." Leo said. "The Seven of us decided to keep in touch, so I modified the compass I used to find Calypso to track them."

"So what's the problem?" Luna asked.

"It's attached to Festus."

Luna's POV

"What?!" Cole said.

"Yes," Leo said. "I have good news and bad news about the situation. The good news is that I have a tracker for Festus and it is still functional."

"What's the bad news?" Cole asked.

"The bad news is, it is about ten miles from Camp Jupiter." Leo said. "If we are going to get it, then we might run into controlled monsters or the two boys. We will be in Divine Conqueror territory. But if they get to it first, they can find the locations of the Seven."

They all went silent.

"We can't let that happen." Chase said.

"How do we get back to LA?" I asked.

"Well, Percy's decided to leave his pegasus, Blackjack, with Camp-Halfblood. He will be more than happy to help find Percy," Leo explained.

"I'm not an expert on Greek mythology, but I doubt a pegasus can lift four people." I stated.

"Which is why only two people should go, me and someone else, probably Cole because he used to live in LA near Camp Jupiter." Leo said.

I was about to object, but I realized that he was right, so I reluctantly agreed.

Cole's POV

After a few hours on Blackjack, which was spent just telling stories cause we were bored, we finally arrived at the crash site, which was in a forest.

"Festus." Leo said sadly.

He seemed mostly intact, but the bolt of lighting must have shut down most of his circuits.

He lay in a heap, unmoving.

Leo turned to me.

"The compass is on Festus, but it is his brain that we need, it has the information we need." Leo told me.

"Thanks for the instructions," came a voice from behind us.

We turned around and saw the two boys that served Tiberius.

"Oh great, it's you guys, don't you have something better to do, like kissing Tiberius' shoes?" I snarked.

"Oh, um, we were lying about the brain being important." Leo said.

"You think we're stupid?" said Gator Boy.

"Yes." Leo said flatly.

We both shot a blast of fire toward them. They both jumped out of the way.

I pulled took off Wildfire from my wrist and spun the knob until it was at noon, and it turned into a golden sword. Meanwhile, Leo pulled a three pound hammer out of his tool belt.

"I'll take care of Gator Boy, you take care of the other one."

Alabaster's POV

The Valdez boy rushed toward me and swung his hammer at me, I deflected with my sword.

Our weapons locked and I punched him in the head and kicked him in the gut, causing him to stagger back.

I then wrapped my hand around his throat, so he grabbed my wrist and started to burn it, causing me to break away.

Once we broke off, I created multiple identical illusions of myself. My illusions and I rushed toward him.

He swung at my clones and they disappeared on contact, then he swung his hammer toward me, which I stopped with my hand and used my sword to slice his wrist, causing his to drop his hammer with a shout.

I kicked him in the chest, causing him to fall on the ground.

I raised my sword above my head, ready to strike him down. Fear was in the Valdez boy's eyes.

No, I thought.

Surprisingly, dispite working with Tiberius, I have never killed before, never wanting to.

Using my moment of hesitation, my opponent struck me full on with a blast of fire.

The force of it sent me flying into a tree, felling pain shoot up my back before I passed out.

Leo's POV

Now that the boy was out of the way I rushed to Festus's head, ready to take out his brain.

Immediately, when I touched his head, I felt something. Something strange. Strangely like a pulse.

He's alive, I thought.

I looked at Cole and saw that the Gator Boy had transformed into a much bigger, blue Gator Boy.

Cole sent a sustained blast of fire toward him, but he was starting to push through the flames.

I mentally reached into Festus, sensing his fried circuits. Then, I did something I've never done before, I mentally felt out his fried circuits and felt myself mending them.

Cole's POV

Gator Boy has finally pushed through my flames and kicked me in the head. Because he was a combat avatar, it really hurt, causing my vision to blur.

"I'm going to enjoy killing you more than ever."

He unsheathed his khopesh when a shape slammed into his avatar.

Festus.

Gator Boy was sent sliding back before pushing himself up.

The two circled each other and Festus roared at him, which Gator Boy responded by roaring back himself, his gator head roaring as well.

Festus lunged toward him and grabbed his arms with his claws and started to fly into the sky.

Gator Boy thrashed in Festus' grip, but Festus was a good deal bigger and kept taking him into the sky.

Then he dropped him.

As he fell, Festus launched two rockets toward him and then flew down at top speed.

The rockets hit Gator Boy and Festus tackled him from above at top speed.

Both of them were rocketing toward the ground at insane speed and, finally, they slammed into the ground, creating a dust cloud.

When the dust cleared, it showed Festus standing triumphantly over Gator Boy, who was now out of his combat avatar and unconscious on the ground, covered in blood and probably had many bones broken.

Leo looked at him.

"I missed you buddy." Leo said.

Blackjack walked over to us, clearly he saw the crocodile man and metal dragon grappling in midair, so I guess he came to see the commotion.

I looked at him.

"Let's get out of here," I said to Leo.

Then we flew off, Leo on Festus and me on Blackjack.

So, I hope you liked this chapter, especially Festus vs Corey. Again, sorry about not posting yesterday, I made this chapter extra epic as an apology. Thank you for reading. Peace.
