Hello there! I'm back! Sorry for not updating earlier but I was on vacations at San Antonio for the San Japan convention. School starts on Monday and hopefully I'll be able to keep the usual 1 chapter per week schedule. Thanks to everyone who favorited, followed and reviewed. Now, on to the story...

Disclaimer: I don't own PJ or MR.

Chapter 14

Percy POV

"Annabeth, you're free!" Percy pushed himself up and crushed his wise girl in fierce and passionate kiss. The world could have stopped and he wouldn't care less. Let's also add the fact he forgot all about his near death experience with the collapsing house.

"As much as I would like to stand here for the rest of eternity watching how you make out, I'm an eternal maid and find it completely gross. Plus several explosions were set off at an uncomfortable distance to the main building were Nico, Travis and Connor headed. WHICH MEANS THEY ARE ON POTENTIAL DANGER!"

Thalia's interruption pulled the green eyed demigod back into reality. He then remembered a certain someone also died with him inside the house. Percy turned to look at an embarrassed Dylan and carefully let go of his girlfriend. Said person stared rudely at Dylan with stormy eyes and after a minute of silence tackled him to the ground.

"Wait! Annabeth!" Percy panicked and ran towards the struggling duo, careful not to harm both of them. "He is a good guy!"

"Sorry." Annabeth blushed and stood up brushing off the dirt from her clothes. After dimming herself clean enough Annabeth's grey eyes caught Percy's sea green in a stare battle. Millions of thoughts seemed to fly around her head at an inhuman speed. Then she broke contact and mumbled under her breath. "You're different."

Annabeth's voice was so low, a normal person wouldn't have heard it, but strangely Percy did. 'What did the scientists do with me?' He kept asking himself over and over again.

The son of Poseidon was extremely glad he wore a jacket, he didn't want to worry his girlfriend with his traumatizing experience during his stay at the School. Rubbing his own back, while feeling the small bulk his wings created, Percy grinned widely and addressed Thalia.

"Well look who's here! It's Pinecone face. So will you tell me what's all the ruckus about?"

Even if she tried to mask the surprise, Percy knew Thalia had somehow seen his wings. But why hadn't she told Annabeth yet? After pondering a few seconds the sea demigod comprehended Thalia's reasons. She wanted to give Percy more time to explain.

"Kelp face are you dumber than usual? This is a rescue mission! You should feel ashamed because the Great Hero of Olympus was kidnapped, a second time. Chiron sent a lot of us just to find you. Nico is inside the main building along with the twins, Ja-" Thalia was giving her small speech when a bullet sailed through the air and collided with the tree trunk near Thalia's head.

"What the?" Annabeth stared confused, while Thalia still registered the fact she almost got killed. On the other side, Percy and Dylan's eyes shot open in panic.

"Erasers."

Max POV

First flying horses and then erasers showed up. What was next? Talking elephants? I ran through the building as fast as I could, the Flock following close behind.

I had to get to Dylan's house. Itex had finally made its move and they wouldn't take their prize. As for the other intruders, Angel couldn't read or influence their minds. She had said they were like Percy's.

I changed directions and went left. A bad decision on my part, because I crashed into something or should I say a someone. The kid was no older than 14, he wore an aviators jacket, a black t-shirt decorated with a grinning skull, black skinny jeans, a skull ring and black combat boots. He was extremely pale and thin. Actually if someone asked me to describe the kid in one word I would say death. What caught my attention though, was his dark sunken eyes that shone like a madman, his long black hair bangs and the aura surrounding him. The kid oozed danger. It sort of reminded me of a combination between Percy and Fang. It only took me a second to register all of this before we crashed with each other, we landed on the floor on a very embarrassing pose.

Skull Kid only widened his eyes, punched me on the gut (very painfully may I add. Seriously where did he get the muscle?) And turned the way he came running on a full sprint.

"Wait! What do you want?" I yelled after him. Trying to stand up I noticed an extra weight on my tight. It was something black and long. Wait was it a sword?

Finally the Flock caught up with me. "Are you ok?" Fang questioned while he helped me up.

"Yeah, I just crashed into a weird boy who looked disturbingly like a younger you and he dropped this." (Of course I skipped the looked like a younger you part, but I sure a blond devil heard it just fine.) The whole Flock stepped closer to the sword and I unsheathed it. Instantly the shadows in the hallway dimmed and a creepy air flowed around us.

"Wow! What was that? 'tyoufeelthegoosebumpsrunningdownyourspinedidyouseehowhisswordissimilartoPercy'sandwhereishedoyouthinkthatguywaslookingforhimmaybeheisalsomutantDylanwillprotectPercyrighthewouldn'tbetrayuslikelasttimebecau-mmmmmmf."

"Shut up Nudge! I'm trying to think here!" I clamped a hand on her mouth.

It was really REALLY normal that when Nudge panicked words would spill out of her moth like there was no tomorrow. But right now we needed to trap the intruders and question them.

Angel spoke to me quietly. "Max, I feel 3 minds next door, I can't read them so I suppose they're from the intruders." I nodded thanking her and gave the sword to mom, who left in a hurry. Who knows how nasty it could get inside the room?

Then Gazzy approached the door and kicked it open. To everyone's surprise Skull kid was next to two more boys/twins, their hands full of OUR gadgets.

"Hey! Give that back and surrender!" Angel glared at them. That was my girl!

The 3 teenagers jumped, the twins took out small daggers and Skull kid a sword. Well tried, because when he grasped his belt nothing was there. Skull kid opened his eyes wide in surprise as his hand came up empty.

I grinned at him. "If you want it back then come and get it. But I won't promise not to hurt you."

The shadows around the room twisted and grew coming alive. My grin melted of my face as I looked deep into Skull kid's eyes. Before any of us could react he grabbed hands with the other guys and melted into the shadows.

I swallowed, his stare was deathly. All of us were shaken up, even Fang and he had the dirtiest glare. Total was hidden behind Angel's dress, while she was behind me, all her spunk fushed down the toilet.

"That was intense. Still, we have to find them. OK?" Good job Max! Way to snap everyone out of it.

"Max?" Ange's eyes were wide and she shook like a leaf in November.

"Yes sweetie?"

"The boy with the dark eyes? I'm afraid of him. For a brief moment I was able to read his peek inside his mind, and what I saw was horrible!" Tears rolled down Angel's cheeks. With her plotting to become the Flock's leader, I sometimes forgot Angel was my little baby.

What I did next was simple, I hugged her and jumped out the window to search for that wrenched human. How dare he make MY baby! No one, I repeat, NO ONE, can mess with my Flock and get away with it. You'll better watch out Skull boy 'cause Max is coming.
