Sorry for the long update, just come back from the motivational camp, worst week ever!, Anyway before we begin I wanna thanks DarkMando for agreeing to become my beta and as you read this you find out he did a really good job, in my eyes at least, so Thank again DarkMando and I hope you'll stick with me until the end.

To Michaelh126: I'm a dude. If you read CH 1 and 2 and this Chapter, you'll found out the answer to you question. Although there are some scene in CH 12 or 13, I forgot, that will kinda make you mad but I think I put a good excuse. What I'm talking about well you have to wait cause "Spoiler"

Thus the Time has come..

And as such The Clock began to tick.

Sarah Jane

Up high above Earth, unknown to the residents of the planet below, hovering between the Earth and the moon lies a huge space ship, orbiting the Earth, watching it silently. The ship was called Minerva. A veteran warship that served during the Great War, the ship that has seen the cruel fate of the universe as it was plunged into the chaotic hell of War and one of the few ship s that survived the war.

Within the ship's massive interior, in the crew cabin, an annoying sound that had, at one time or another, disturbed the peaceful slumber of all life forms scattered around the universe, the same one now ringing violently beside my bed. You guessed it, that freaking alarm clock. Why in the name of insanity would someone create such a monstrosity is beyond me. But a least it helps me wake up so it's something.

I slam the alarm button silencing it.

"Uh I hate sleeping in space" I stretch my entire body. My eyes refuse to open because the lack of sunlight I am used to feeling when I'm waking up.

"You're up," My husband, Connor Stoll came back in the room, brushing his teeth and reaching for his jacket. He usually didn't wear the jacket, since the children of Hermes kinda hate uniform or at least that what Percy told me.

However since Percy, no Master Percy is on board, he has to dress the part, even though Master Percy never did care. Percy was one of three people within the Chaos Army that he actually respects, the other two are Grand Master Aqua and my father, our late mentor.

"You woke early and you didn't even try wake me up," I crossed my arms, trying to look angry. He just smiled and that made me smile as well. God his smile is contagious.

"I tried. I just didn't succeed. You punched me in the nose."

"I did not."

"Yeah, you did. A baby punch. Nothing is broken, but it hurt like Hades." he leaned in to kiss me. After three years of marriage, it's still feel like our first kiss, the only difference was that we had both gotten better since then. It was like a drug, and I was once again addicted. I couldn't imagine how I would live without him. Despite our major difference and his annoying pranks, I love him with all my life. He was my other half and I'm his. God now I sound like an Aphrodite or Venus kid that Master Percy always talk about.

"Your heating up, are you okay?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine." I tried to argue with him but who am I kidding. As soon as I get up my body quickly becomes tired and my leg immediately lost it's strength.

Connor chuckled as he grab my body and gently push me back to the bed.

"Don't push yourself dear" he kiss my forehead.

I touch my forehead, the same spot that he kiss me. As much as I hated it, he was right.

Connor handed me some pills and water bottle from the nightstand and give it to me. I glared at him as I swallowed the pill.

"Well then I'm going, you get some more sleep okay" he grin as I handed the empty bottle. I lay down on our bed and he pull the blanket over my body. His lips find mine and it lingers for a while.

"Take care and tell Master Percy I said hi" I told him as he left our room and I fell once more into slumber.

Ace

I sighed as I walked through camp. After the mission we were teleport straight to this camp.

After some briefing the Chaos Army Convoy are place on cabin three, my father godly parent. In it we meet the current residence, Aria Jackson, the only daughter of Poseidon and father's little sister. Aria was a nice girl, she welcomed us with open arms and immediately we felt at home, and to be honest our house back on Arcadia has the same design as cabin three.

I guess father wanted a house that reminded him of where he came from.

That night we all enjoyed the dinner, the food was wonderful, I mean the food at Arcadia was good and all, but this, this just couldn't be beat. Not to mention the Magical Goblets can give you whatever you wanted to drink.

We then joined the camp in gathering at the amphitheater for their usual evening entertainment, but since this week was the week that the campers memorialize my father, Thalia told us the story of my father's first quest.

I didn't really need to listen because I was mentally linked with my father and I had seen every memory that my father had, something that the Goddess of love would kill to see. When the story was finished we all went back to our cabins but I wasn't feeling tired even which is kinda weird considering I just finish a mission and spending at least six hour around the camp.

So here I am, walking around analyzing all the different structures of the camp. There were dozens of cabins here, I heard there was one for every Greek god and goddess and I smiled as I remembered all of father's quests and accomplishments and how his wish was for the Olympians to recognize and respect every god and goddess and not ignoring their children and this was the result of that wish.

"Father, this place sure is nice" I whisper quietly.

Watching the lake I suddenly see Refia hanging out with Deuce, Aria and Annabeth across the lake. The girls seem to be having fun as their laughter can be heard all the way over here.

But only one of the laughing girls had my attention, it was Refia.

The way her ginger hair flew when the wind caught it, her blazing red eyes that drives my passion and desire for her.

I sighed as as I pinch my nose, Refia. The girl that I care for more than Deuce. Yea, I admit it, I'm a complete lovesick puppy but I can't help it!

I've known Refia for a long time, and I've loved her since I first met her and since then my love for her has only grown stronger. I sighed quietly, I still remember the first time I saw her.

/warning: animus memory sequence

Beginning/

...I was having a dinner with my family. Deuce was silent, per usual, Seven and Nine were arguing, Jack was flirting with the waitress, Cinque was having a conversation with Master Ventus and my father was attempting a conversation with Deuce. Just a normal night for the Jackson family.

This pattern has been going on for at least six moth now, oh, How time flies.

Six months. It has been six months since father adopt all of us. I often wonder why he did it, considering we are not even human, Yes, we are not human. We are mentally cloned, created from the memories of our father, Perseus Jackson. A lab rat created by the Dark Witch.

We were meant to wage war upon the Seven Heroes, we knew them only As,

The Destroyer.

The Dove.

The Warmind.

The Shifter.

The DragonMaker.

The Cursed Gem.

And Rome's Grace.

And as we searched for our prey, we committed great atrocities.

During the Great War, we had been tasked to various mission and none were pleasant.

Upon the orders of The Dark Witch an entire town, once a safe haven for families of soldiers fighting in the War, was burned and razed. There were no Survivors.

Even as I watched them, terror in their eyes, scream in agony as fire burned away their souls.

Their every face haunts us, calling us out on our transgressions. I came to realize that's all we are, Monsters.

None of us deserve a place here, not among those considered Heroes. As for our redemption?

Our Father found us in stasis in a Lair of the Dark Witch, I thought we were to be killed, but the Dark Witch battled and lost to my father, shortly after Maleficent's incapacitation her control over us was broken.

We were Free at Last.

Father released us from stasis and brought us before the ruling Council of Chaos to be judged.

For weeks he argued, bartered and pleaded for our lives. And in the end?

He won, and later adopted us as his own.

We then were sent to one of the Chaos training Academies so that we could train to use our powers wisely. I often ask him why he didn't just destroy us? His answer: you were created to destroy, but how and what you choose to destroy, is entirely up to you.

And So it Was that we were saved, Redeemed by the very Destroyer we were set upon to kill.

/Alert: Animus Sequence Interrupted. Please Use Caution!/

"Ace watch out!"

I was drawn back into the present.

And found myself in a crash with a certain a ginger haired girl, we both fell.

I shake my head, we must have finished eating and were on our way back to house.

How I managed to walk while remembering the past is unknown to me.

I get up quickly and help the young lady that I bumped into.

"Are you okay?" I asked, holding my hand out to help her sit up.

"Sorry about that I'm such a klutz" She answered politely as she slowly and weakly grasped my hand and I sat her up.

"Oh Refia nice to see you here" Master Ventus ruffled the girl hair.

"Master stop that" She tried to look annoyed but her smile said differently.

"Oh so this is Refia huh" father walked in beside me.

"Ah yes sir, cadet Refia Reporting, Master."

"At Ease, nice to meet you cadet.

You may call me Master Perseus." she smiled.

She then turned her head towards me and the very breath was taken from my chest.

Her ginger hair is perfect, her beautiful face is flawless and the thing that love the most is her eyes. Her blazing red eyes filled with passion, it was gorgeous.

Refia seem to notice that I was gazing over her, "You know it's not nice to stare at girl" She winked and my heart skipped a beat.

What is it that I feel? Is it love? No.

I can't allow myself to be in romantic situation. Not when there's a war going on out in the universe and even if I do like her, she would clearly stay away from me once she found out the truth about me.

And I understand perfectly, not all people like father.

"I Apologize, but I am not accustomed to your human ways." I said coldly.

She flinched and it hurt me.

"I'm Refia by the way" she smile softly and held her hand.

I look at her for a moment.

No this isn't love that I felt, this is just a crush, and crush will fade away.

"I'm Ace, Ace Jackson" I said coldly and walk straight pass her, leaving her hanging.

After that I joined the Forces of Chaos as a cadet and fought on the front lines, along with my father.

As luck would have it, it seems Refia was put onto the same team as I was.

We've been on many explorations and missions since then and it's still like that to this day and I to be honest I kinda enjoyed her presence. I think about telling her about my feelings but after the Great War ended, I realized that we could never be together.

I had something to do.

Refia, who was still in the same place, felt my eyes on her and looked over at me before smiling warmly at me. I nodded confirming to her that I noticed her.

Suddenly my vision was obscured as a girl with bleach blond hair, overly tan skin, obviously contact-colored sapphire eyes, and a conceited smile appeared in front of me, I merely raised an eyebrow.

She was wearing extremely short shorts, a pink top that barely covered her stomach, and silver ballet slippers whose ribbons wrapped up her legs and I almost had to urge to punch her but I manage to restrain myself. A small misunderstanding can create a war, that what father always says. I take a step back though because she was extremely close to me.

"What?" I said coldly and she just smiled brightly at me.

"Hello, I'm Kara, what's your name?" She asked flirtatiously, putting out her hand but I ignore it

"Ace" I said.

"Ace huh? That's such an amazing name, Ace like the Ace of Hearts. I love it!" She exclaimed. Gods I hate this girl already.

"Thanks" I said. I really hate this type of girl.

Send me on a three month recon on an uninhabited planet that teeming with flesh eating monsters and I'd say yes with no second thoughts rather having a conversation with this type of girl.

"You're a camper here?" Crap why did I just asked that. She nodded enthusiastically and grinning like a manic.

Great just great.

"Yea, I'm a daughter of Aphrodite." She told me, Nice and here I though she just a Hermes or an unclaimed kid who wanted some attention. Why does Fate hate me today. "And I'm guessing you are a Soldier?" She tried and I nodded, "Are you high up there?" She asked. What does that even mean.

"I don't think so, if high up there mean rank then no, I'm just a foot soldier" I stated, okay that's a lie. I'm not just a foot soldier. I'm a Buster member and not just a normal Buster, I'm on a Buster team directly under a Master which in my case, my father. But I don't think giving that information to her seem like a good idea.

"Hmm really, such a waste, they should make you a sergeant or something" She said as she grabbed my arm, seeming to see if I had any muscle. She nodded appreciatively and her eyes widened as she did, "I mean look at how big your muscles are! You would make a perfect leader"

She practically yelled but no one was around to hear except for Refia and the other who was still in the same spot. I glanced over at them and see she gritting her teeth and glaring at us with clenched fists. I gave her a pleading "save me" stare as she turned around and disappeared into the cabin, slamming the door on the way.

Why is she mad? I looked back down at Kara and decide it's time to end this.

"Thanks" I said, "You know, I should head back to the cabin, it's getting pretty late and I'm pretty tired." I said because I really wanted to get away and I'm starting to feel sleepy. She nodded enthusiastically.

"Okay! I should do that too, bye!" She exclaimed before running away. Thank god for that.

As soon as she out of the sight, I rushed back to the cabin to find Refia and ask her why she so upset. However as soon as I enter the cabin Deuce slap me hard in the face.

"Why did you do that" I touch my cheek. Wow I never knew Deuce could slap that hard.

"Ace you are an idiotic man you know that" She spat that word and head towards the female section that Annabeth has created. I silently stare as she slam the door.

"Wow what did you do this time Ace" I heard Jack ask. He look shocked and scared because Deuce rarely get upset or mad. The last time she got mad, Nine was in a hospital for a week.

"No idea" I start to make my way to the bed, the same bed that father used to sleep on. Feeling that there no way I could understand why the two girl are upset I change into my pajamas and lie down on the bed shouting "lights out" and drift into Chaotic slumber as the light within the room began to fade.

"So when are we going to attack?" One monster asked quietly and the other monster slapped him upside the head.

"Weren't you listening to Kronos? We're attacking camp in two days, it's time we showed those gods and demigods who's the better side in this war and show them what they're up against." He grumbled before they both disappeared into the tent.

I stood up from the bush I was hiding in and slowly crept through the forest, using my camouflage cloak to my advantage.

I heard voices up ahead and jumped up onto the branches of the nearest tree.

I look down below me and see a bunch of dracenae slithering down the path below me, I debated on whether or not to attack them and after a minute I decided that the fewer monsters they had on their side, the better for us.

We had no one to help us while the enemies had billions of monsters and powerful beings to help them not to mention those strange robots.

I took out my bow and shot an arrow straight into the head of a dracaena making it dissolve before landing in front of the other five dracaena, earning a hiss of surprise and hatred from them. I took out my sword Riptide and a second later another dracaena disappeared as I cut them in half. The far left one hissed angrily at me before flinging her tail at me, I just sliced it off and hacked through her. After about five seconds the dracaena were gone and I continued down the path towards camp as fast as I could, they needed to know about what they were going to face soon.
