Challenge and Names

(Void POV)

I returned to Camp and began to walk around. The katana I'd received was hanging limply by my side. Who was that man? Why did he give me this sword? My mind was completely focused on that man. Why couldn't I hear his name? I continued walking until Nick showed up.

"You!" he yelled disrupting all thoughts.

"What do you want son of Posedion?" I could barely hold back the anger. He made me so angry I just wanted to kill him and be done with it.

"I challenge you to a sword match! No powers just pure swordsmanship!" I thought about it and decided to go for it seeing as how I would be able to practice with the katana I had recieved.

"All right. When and where?"

"Twenty minutes in the Arena!" He walked off probably feeling very proud that he had convinced me. I knew it would be hard because of the fact that I was used to broadswords instead of katanas but what difference could there really be?

(Grover POV)

We gathered in the Arena for a sword fight between Void and Nick. The two of them stepped out into the main floor. Void was holding a strange katana that had a black hilt and square guard. Nick just grinned and pulled out a pen. I simply glared because I knew what it was. It was Percy's old weapon.

(Void POV)

I was beyond angry now. I was furious! This complete idiot found Riptide in the cabin! I should've taken it with me! I can't believe I left it behind! I pulled my blade from my sheath and prepared to fight. He lunged at me with Riptide. I quickly swatted it away with my blade and attemped a side swing. Big mistake. He easily knocked the blade away and cut the front of my robe. It was clear know that the katana was for quick attacks. I swung at his chest only for him to knock it away again and slice the arm of the robe. This was not going well. I decided to go on the defensive and blocked all of his swings but eventually he found a gap in my defense and cut my robe again. I knew the robe proteced my body from all injuries seeing as it was as strong as steel but if he could wear it down enough he would be able to cut me. He once again found the gap in my defense and cut the robe again. This was going downhill for me fast. He brought his blade up and as he was bringing it down time seemed to freeze. It wasn't Kronos' powers because I would've felt them activate. This was something else. A man walked out of the shadows and began to talk.

"Really Perseus? This is how you wield me? I'm ashamed to have you as an owner. You need to learn better control. Perhaps now you'll be able to hear my name. My name is..."

The world sped back up. I easily deflected his shot and shouted what the man had told me. " Cleave the moon in two! Zangetsu!" A brilliant flash of light illuminated the stadium and when it vanished the weapon I was holding bore no similiarties to the katana. It was a large cleaver as easily as big as myself with the actual blade part made of two colors: black and white. The hilt was now just a tang with cloth wrapped around it and a little bit of cloth hanging off the end. What suprised me was that I could easily hold it with one hand. Nick was shocked at my weapon's transformation but continued his attack. I quickly swung Zangetsu at his side and he attempted to block but Riptide was easliy tossed aside and he got a good sized cut on his stomach. He looked up and glared at me. He was about to speak but before he could I hit him in his stomach with the flat side of Zangetsu causing him to double over in pain. I began to walk away but he still spoke up.

"Where are you going? This isn't over!"

"What do you mean? You are separated from your weapon and cannot attack. You are also injured meaning you're at a disadvantage. This fight is over." I began to walk away but he yelled at me.

"You're just a coward! You refuse to fight because you'll know that you'll lose!" I was really angry know. I felt something strange like a pulling feeling. I turned around and unleashed a power that would shock everyone including myself.

(A/N): Hey! I'm done with that chapter! Something I want to say I'm debating whether or not to give Percy and inner hollow. Should I? The reason I ask you is so I know if the story's getting to complicated or not. Anyways please review and thanks for reading!
