Zaira's POV

"Where could it be?" Cece asked. "This place is huge. How are we going to find a lightning bolt here?"

"We have to split up. When we find it, we'll send an Iris Message. Then we'll meet up at... uh... here." Percy said.

"Lets go." I said.

First, Nico and I checked a place where you knock pins down. No lightning bolt. Then we checked a live alligator cage. No lightning bolt.

"This is going to take forever!" I exclaimed, frustrated.

"Don't worry. We'll find it." I put a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

She smiled. "Thanks.. but really. How are we going to find it?"

"Somehow.." I said.

Annabeth's POV

8:27 pm

"That lady looks suspicious.. let's check out over there." Percy said.

"Okay." I said.

"Hi!" said the lady, a little over excited.

"Hi.." we said awkwardly.

"Do you wanna go down the Tunnel of Love? I see you two are a couple." she said.

"Umm no we really shouldn't." I said. I looked at Percy for back up.

"Uh yeah. We're looking for someone.." he said. "Oh there she is, bye!"

Once we were out of ear-shot, I said-

"She is creepy!"

"Yeah. And I thought that the mummy that had the Oracle was creepy." Percy said with a shudder.

Next we checked something called the Florida Skyline. It was pretty high up, so we thought we might see the lightning bolt. No luck.

Cece's POV

8:38 pm

"Let's check that photobooth." I said.

"Um okay." Deuce said.

We took a few pictures, but didn't find the lightning bolt.

"No lightning bolt." Deuce said.

"Oh I know I just wanted to take some pictures for my scrapbook!" I said.

"Where to next?" he asked.

"How about that water ride? Zeus doesn't get a long with Poseidon, god of the sea and water and stuff, so maybe its somewhere water-related?"

"You do realize that didn't make sense, right?" he asked. "Poseidon didn't steal it."

"Well I don't know, okay?" I said, frustrated. "I just don't know where we should look!

Zaira's POV

9:34 pm

After an hour of searching, we decided to take a break. We all met up just in time for the firework show.

The fireworks made a lot of cool shapes. They made a mickey mouse head, princess tiara, and other stuff that have to do with Disney. Then the announcer guy came up.

"Today we are celebrating new beginnings. Hopefully the god of new beginnings, Janus, will be with us as we open up a new wing here at Disney World!" he exclaimed.

Suddenly, a wave of visions washed over my brain. Images of Janus stealing something. Something important. Cece seemed to have these visions.

We looked at each other in shock. "IT WAS JANUS!" we said at the same time.

"What do you mean?" Annabeth asked.

"Janus stole the lightning bolt." I said.

"It turns out that we have visions of the past and present," Cece added. "We just had a vision of Janus stealing it. It was during the birthday party of Apollo and Artemis. He snuck over to Zeus's throne and took it!"

"No one suspected it was him because he was one of the most innocent of the minor gods." I continued.

"Well now that we know he took it, where are we going to find it?" Deuce asked.

New beginnings... the new wing at Disney World..

"The new wing here at Disney World! It and hopefully Janus should be there!"

"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go get it back!" Nico said.

Disney World

New Wing

9:46 pm

When we arrived, we saw a bright flash of light right in the center of the new wing.

"Well if it isn't the little demi-gods." Janus said in an evil voice. "Trying to get the lightning bolt, are we?"

"We don't have to fight." Percy said.

"Just give us the lightning bolt and we'll leave you alone." Annabeth added.

"Oh but I want to fight." he said. He pulled out two swords. Celestial bronze.

Something tells me that he was good. Really good. And celestial bronze could kill demi-gods.. so here's hoping we don't die!

We all got our weapons ready. Nico was the first to charge with his black as death Stygian Iron sword. He charged at Janus, but he intercepted his move and made Nico trip, landing on his back with his sword four feet away from him. Janus was about to strike him, but I shot my arrow right for Janus's swords.

It hit his sword with a CLANG! and it fell to the ground. Nico used this opportunity to stand up and retrieve his sword. Percy charged with his sword. He met Janus's sword with a collision so strong that Percy almost lost his balance.

Cece and I attacked Janus with a storm of arrows. All of them missed. Man this guy is good! I realized Annabeth wasn't in any of this, but then remembered that she had an invisibility cap.

Just as Nico hid himself in the shadows, Annabeth appeared behind Janus and stabbed him with her knife. It hit him and he hissed in pain. It was enough for me to sneak up and take the lightning bolt.

"Not so fast!" he hissed. He took out a control. I looked at it confused. When he pressed the button, I felt a thousand bolts of electricity shoot right through me. I fell to the ground and the lightning bolt slid out of my hand.

"Hey leave her alone!" Nico yelled. He ran up to him and raised dead soldiers. They took care of the rest, but I knew they wouldn't hold out for long.

Nico came up to me and knelt down to my level. He lifted my head and rested it in his lap. "Are you okay?"

"Not really." I managed to choke out. "Getting electrocuted is not fun."

"Here. I have some ambrosia and nectar." he said. He fed me a bite of the ambrosia. It tasted just like my mom's spaghetti with Monterrey Jack cheese. Next he started rubbing some of the nectar on my right hand. The same hand that was holding the lightning bolt.

"You're not fit to fight. Here let me put you somewhere safe." he said. He lifted me up and took me to a tent that would soon be a hypnotist show. He set me down.

I started to fall asleep. Before I did, I heard part of what Nico was saying.

"-love you."

Cece's POV

10:34 pm

Just as quickly as the dead soldiers came up, they were gone.

"How are we going to beat him?" I asked Deuce.

Before he could answer, we heard a siren. Then we heard multiple feet stomping towards us.

"Rocky?" I asked.

There in plain sight was Rocky, Ty, Tinka, Gunther, Travis, Connor, Thalia, Katie, Clarisse, and Chris. All with their weapons.

"Need help?" Ty smiled.

"DUH!" we exclaimed.

"You think that this is enough to take down me?" Janus laughed.

"Lets see," Nico said. "Sixteen demi-gods against one god.. hmmm..."

"Seems like its possible." Travis said.

Then we all went after him. In less than three minutes, eleven demi-gods were taken out. Only five left; Clarisse, Percy, Connor, Katie, and Tinka.

While we were gone, Tinka had become pretty good with using daggers. She shot them all to him. They caught his clothes and he was pinned up against the wall of a port-potty. Just as he tried to move, blades came out from them.

"Do not even bother to move," Tinka said. "Any sudden movements, and you'll activate all of its weapons."

"Looks like your in a sticky situation." Percy said. "Katie, tie him up with your vines."

Katie threw some magical seeds on the ground and they grew into long vines. The vines went all the way to Janus and tied him up.

"Just to make sure you won't escape.." Connor started. "KNOCK OUT TIME!"

"Wha-" before Janus could finish, Connor banged a baseball bat on his head.

Nico then came back with Zaira, who was looking a bit better than before. The ones who were still okay started to treat the wounded. After about fifteen minutes, we were all better.

"How are we going to get to New York?" Nico asked.

"The same way we came here!" Thalia said. She whistled and from the shadows came nine pegasi.

"Split up into two." Clarisse said. She joined her boyfriend, Chris, on a tan colored pegasus.

Nico and I went on a black pegasus named Nightingale; Percy and Annabeth rode on Blackjack; Cece and Deuce rode on Porkpie; Ty and Tinka rode on Candy; Travis and Katie rode on Tricky; Rocky and Gunther rode on Lexy; Connor and Thalia rode on Dotty.

The ride back was really fast. Apparently, pegasi can go really fast when they want to. We made it to Olympus by eleven.

Manhattan, New York

Empire State Building

11:03 pm

Once we were in the Empire State Building, Percy took us to the front desk.

"600th floor," he said to the guy at the front desk.

"No such thing, kid." he said.

Nico leaned up to him. "Do you really wanna get beat up by sixteen powerful demi-gods?" he asked.

"Here's the card." the guy said.

Once we were in the elevator, Percy put the card in. A new button came up. The last letter of the Greek alphabet. Omega.

Nico pushed it and we zipped through floors. 400, 450, 500, 550, 600.

The elevator doors opened. This was my first time on Olympus. The only word I could find to describe it was breathtaking.

The garden was beautiful, naiads, dryads, and all sorts of creatures wandered through town.

Then we made it to the throne room.

Some of us were nervous. This would be the first time we would meet our parents.

Percy pushed open the doors to the throne room.

What will happen next? REMEMBER TO PUT A 1 OR 2!
