Warriors of The Eternal One: Resistance
Chapter Eleven: The Heist
*Four Months prior to the last two chapters*
Annabeth had been in a coma for two months now. It was upto Thalia to plan all of the resistance's moves and to ensure they were perfectly executed. It was by no means an easy thing to do. Thalia looked over her maps again, observing every last detail. If anything went wrong on this mission, it could mean an early end to the war they were staging against Percy and the end of freedom as they knew it. They needed to stop Percy's supplies so that they could draw out this war and buy themselves more time to organise a resistance movement. They had discovered that the entire amount Percy was spending on the war effort was being transported in one huge van to Berlin from Paris. This was their chance to cripple Percy's armies.
The amount was 2 Trillion dollars, but there was one slight problem for them, as well as being guarded by 100 of Percy's best troops, Percy himself was there with the money. They would have to beat him and his troops to get to it.
'Everyone ready?' Luke called over to the others. He had come back to life through the doors of death like the other fallen heroes like Jason, Pollux and Piper, his job would be to distract Pery's drivers and when they went to see what was happening, Thalia and the others would move in, take out the closest troops and take out the money.
'When you are.' Thalia said pointedly as she waited for Luke to begin. They all watched as Luke stood up next to the road Percy's convoy were travelling down. He stepped out into the middle and fell to the ground in an apparent faint. When Percy's first truck reached him they rushed out to check on the apparently injured man. As they reached him Luke grinned, jumped up and in two quick movements snapped both of their neck's. He ran into the truck before anyone could see what was causing the hold-up and started driving forward, leading the convoy towards Thalia and the others.
'Let's go.' Thalia said to the others and as Luke's truck went past them and he nodded towards them, Thalia yelled and a bolt of lightning came down and struck into the second van, the one before the money van. It burst into flames and the other vans grinded to a stop. They saw Percy jump out of one of the vans and run towards it as Thalia yelled again and Percy was sent flying ten feet away as the van behind the money van was struck and it exploded into flames as well.
'Thalia!' They heard Percy yell as he got to his feet. 'Those demigods are here!' He roared at his troops, piling out of the vans behind which hadn't been struck 'Find them!'
'Yes sir!' They yelled as they spread out, running up the hill which the demigods were sheltering behind.
'It's been great fighting with you guys.' Thalia yelled to the others as she yelled again and lightning struck as the demigods piled out over the hill and Percy's forces fell back under the onslaught of weapons and weather unable to aim against the demigods as well. They ran towards the trucks as Percy neared his money truck and stood behind it. The demigods reached the bottom of the hill and as three Athena kids went to the back of it to crack the side open, the demigods heard faint whimpers as Percy took out all three of them.
Thalia called out 'Are you guys ok?' as Percy came to face the demigods
'The answer to your question is no.' He grinned like a maniac and yelled water,fire and energy all collecting hands as he blasted it towards the demigods. Luke yelled as he drove his truck towards Percy as the demigods scattered. He drove at Percy and Percy lazily waved his hand, sending Luke flying over his head as the van rolleed in the air before exploding as it fell to the ground, the demigods saw Luke dive out and fall to the floor and slump unconscious against the ground as he tried to rise.
Thalia yelled and blasted lightning at Percy which he stopped with his hand and added to his ever-building storm of energy, ice, fire and water. Percy smiled as Thalia's eyes opened seeing that she couldn't hurt him with her powers. Percy laughed as more added to it and Thalia charged at him, she kicked hard and Percy went behind her in between her and the demigods with Thalia's back to the van. Percy snarled as his energy field continued to build.
'Hey Percy.' Thalia taunted ' You know what happens when Lightning meets water?'
she said firing another bolt of lightning at him, which he sucked into the vortex of energy. Percy released it at Thalia in a scream as wave after wave of pure energy fired at her, in a destructive beam of energy.
'You get FIRE!' she shouted, jumping into the air, over the beam as Percy looked up in horror as shwe dived over his beam, and kicked him hard in the face. Percy fell as Thalia did a somersault landed on the floor as the demigods were dragging Luke up the hill and watched as the beam hit Percy's truck, exploding it and all of the money inside. Percy screamed as the truck exploded and the demigods fled towards the distant city of Berlin.
