STARK TOWERS-
"How in the world did he become one of the universe's most feared assassin's when he can't even work out what day of the week it is?"
"I honestly don't know"
THE VOID OF CHAOS-
The Legion of Chaos' barracks and training quarters were enormous. Loki was overwhelmed by the sheer scale of it all just by walking through the Alpha's living quarters.
Each division had their own facilities, which had around 50 floors, more could be added if need, and was about 500 meters long and 400 meters wide. Each division was distinguished by a colour and their division block's outside walls were painted that colour.
Each block had several dormitory floors and a food hall, a swimming pool and an ice rink, and Chaos only knows haw many training arena's, shooting ranges and simulation trainers.
The blocks were arranged in a U shape around the front of the massive Palace of Chaos. The Palace was so big that if it were placed on earth, then it would be larger than the United Kingdom. A clear path cut through the U shape, leading to the Afterlife Void, where people stayed when they died. Around the back of the Palace of Chaos was a massive arena and several sporting facilities, used when different divisions challenged each other.
The Alpha block, wasn't exactly a division block, because there was no Alpha division, but they were known as the Alpha squad. It was placed directly to the right of the path from the Palace and was painted all the colours of the spectrum. Cyclone said it was because they were all secretly gay.
Well some of them…not so secretly.
The Palace of Chaos was where all the Immortal Deities in the Void lived. Inside the Palace, it was cut off into sections, each part belonging to a different deity. The central part that would be reached through the front door belonged to Chaos. It was where all the military decisions and judgments were made. And also where they could find Chaos.
Storm had teleported Blizzard and Loki straight there, telling Loki that it would take forever if the walked.
They stood in the immense entrance hall, which had a flow of busy people, every single one of them wearing cloaks.
One of the commanders caught Storm as she walked past. "Ooh, two boys on your tail eh Storm?"
"Shut it." Scowled Storm at Commander Chi (Kida).
Just as Kida started to disappear, Storm called after her. "Hey, Chi! You know if Chaos is busy?"
Kida turned around and laughed. "Chaos is always busy! But I think he will finish his meeting with the Tau division in a few minutes."
"Cheers!" said Storm and Kida smiled at her.
As Storm led the way up to Chaos' office, Loki glared at Blizzard.
"What does Jay mean anyway?"
"What do you mean?" asked Storm, glancing at Loki, a bit confused.
"You called him Jay earlier, so I was wondering what it meant." explained Loki.
Blizzard rolled his eyes.
"Ok, it's just a nickname. His previous name was Jack and I feel more comfortable calling him Jack or Jay. Blizzard is too…I don't even know, but Jay is just easier to say."
Loki frowned at that. Storm having a nickname for this other boy? That wouldn't do-
"Oh cut it out Loki!" groaned Storm, seeing the annoyed look on his face. "Jay and I have been good friend for hundreds of years so I'm not stopping our friendship just because you are jealous."
Loki stuck his tongue out at her in response.
CAMP HAVEN-
The noise level was a gentle hum in the background, but almost everyone was thinking the same thing.
This boy, Commander Kappa, definitely looked like the offspring of Nico Di Angelo and Percy Jackson. So they much be somewhere in the Legion if their child was (no one even wanted to know how those two had a child [yet]).
Judging by the sound of it, the Legion was huge, but at least they had some idea where they were.
"Excuse me?" Annabeth looked in horror as her and Piper's child child, Cassandra, ran up to Commander Kappa, who had finished his conversation. Annabeth had inherited her mother's ability to have 'brain child', allowing her to have children with Piper.
Commander Kappa looked down at the child standing in front of him. Piper, sucked in her breath, expecting the worst.
But despite their fear's, Commander Kappa's face broke into a smile as Cassandra's big, kaleidoscope eyes stared at him.
"Yes little one?"
Cassandra stared at him some more before demandingly lifting her arms. He looked a bit surprised and looked questioningly at Annabeth, who was where the child had been sitting, who shrugged.
He lifted her up in his arms, looking a bit bewildered.
"What's you name?" she asked innocently.
"My name?" He looked even more confused, but answered anyway. "My official title is Commander Kappa, but my name is Leandro."
Cassandra carried on gazing at him.
"Uhm…I am sorry little one, but I have to go now." He said awkwardly.
"Whhyyy?" she questioned, tilting her head sideways as she spoke.
"Uh…because I have…stuff to…do?" Leandro's voice had lost it's commanding tone, he had obviously not been prepared for being interrogated by a 4 year old.
CHAOS' OFFICE-
Chaos frowned at the three young adults that sat in his office.
"What do you mean 'cursed'? I don't think you were ever cursed my dear girl."
Storm blinked. "Sorry what? But my parents said that's the reason why I have my powers. I was cursed at birth…right?"
Chaos' brow furrowed in confusion, and then cleared in realisation. "Oh, no, that's not the reason for your powers! They weren't a curse my dear."
"Oh?" Storm's face fell, "So my parent's lied to me?"
"No, my girl, they didn't know any better." Chaos started to explain. "Your planet was a rather unique planet that I created, instead of putting immortal deities to control the planet, I granted the rulers of each country, powers. Your country, Norway, was an icy and snow coated country, so the ruler at that time inherited powers of ice and snow. They have been passed down the Royal bloodline, through your father, who unfortunately did not inherit the powers, to you. Norway at the time of when I granted the powers was also a very strong country, that power was passed to Anna. Don't tell me you haven't noticed your sister's strength."
Storm frowned. Anna had superhuman strength? Storm couldn't help but remember when Anna had punched Hans and he fell off the boat, that had seemed slightly unusual at the time. But she must have just credited it to her sister's punching skills, instead of her strength.
Wow, how had she not noticed that?
"Wait, but why did they tell me that it was a curse?" interjected Storm before they led out of his office.
"Ah that was a misunderstanding on your father's part, because he had not inherited the powers, but had seen his father use them, he thought they were a curse. This was because you father always overheard his father, calling it a curse when he couldn't control it."
"Oh." Storm walked out of the office in a daze, still thinking about Anna's power, when Chaos called her back.
"Storm, aren't you on a mission?"
Storm's eyes widened as she realised she had forgotten about it.
"Oh yeah. Damn."
CAMP HAVEN-
Commander Kappa had left as soon as it was possible to prise off Cassandra Chase-McLean.
"What do you know about him?" asked Frank cautiously, addressing the table with the soldier of the Legion on it.
"Commander Kappa? Not much more than he just told you." replied Theseus. "His name is Leandro, no one knows his sur name. He is an amazingly good swords fighter and is advanced at manipulating the elements, including shadows and fire. He joined the Legion about 3000 years ago as a soldier in my division, Omega, but he was just as mysterious then as he is now."
Frank nodded and everyone contemplated the new information.
"Are you going to eat anything?" Achilles asked Theseus, who had spent most of the mealtime talking.
Theseus looked offended. "Of course I am! I love food."
To prove his point, he shoved half of his bread roll in his mouth and chewed it defiantly.
Achilles rolled his eyes.
The air next to the table with the soldiers rippled, and for the third time that mealtime, some figures appeared next to them.
"Jesus fuck! Is this all you people do? Disturb our dinner on Fridays?" exclaimed Clarisse.
"Language demigod." replied a cool, emotionless voice from one of the figures. "Although I suppose any politeness can hardly be expected from a child of Ares."
Clarisse was about to give a biting retort, when she sort of recognized the figure that had spoken.
It was the male figure that had interrupted the fight three days ago with two other boys and the girl all in white with wings. The one that had introduced himself as Cyclone and radiated power.
He certainly hadn't lost that appearance, he had a pair of dual swords crossed over his back, and his gold-tinted-green armour glinted menacingly from underneath his water-cape.
Behind him were two figures, wearing all black, identical jumpsuits and a black cloak. One was male and one was female.
"Uh…" Clarisse wasn't really sure what to say. A clear image of the two other men that had arrived with him last time they met, played through her head. They were deadly accurate, superhumanly fast and completely stoic.
Cyclone stayed silent, in a way it was more unnerving that way than if he had spoken a threat. His silent presence was very intimidating.
People who knew Cyclone said that he had three modes: friendly, commander and assassin. At the moment he was in assassin mode.
"That's what I thought demigod. Mind your manners."
At the end of a sentence, he went into a smooth transition from assassin mode to commander.
"Report." He stated at the commanders and lieutenants that had stood up when he arrived.
Commander Ksi (King Arthur) replied. "No casualties, injuries or wounds. They severely lack in all around training, there are very few healers and are also lacking in facilities."
Cyclone nodded and scanned the area.
It had once again fallen silent.
He addressed his two companions, "You guys take a seat."
They obediently sat down next to Lieutenant Omicron (Gabrielle).
The high table was were the Centurions, Praetors, Chiron and Lupa sat. He strode up to it, every eye following his movement, stopping directly in front of the middle of the table.
His voice was clear and frighteningly smooth as he spoke, but his words betrayed no emotions whatsoever. "Pleasure to meet you Praetors of Camp Haven. I am Cyclone, Alpha Elite and Assassin of Chaos. Here to oversee the moving in of our troops of the Delta, Ksi, Omicron and Omega Divisions."
Everyone gulped at the mention of 'assassin'. He certainly looked the part, with his long cloak that swept out behind him and his formal but cold voice.
He held out his hand to the empty air, challenging them to choose someone to shake it.
He was stood, incidentally, directly in front of Annabeth. She gulped, remembering the glare that he had given her for just not properly addressing him and his friends and interrupting their conversation. She was very sure that her heart had physically stopped beating, and she hadn't even seen their faces.
Their faces had been covered by the hoods on their mysterious-looking cloaks.
Frank nudged Annabeth, unwilling to take the offered hand himself.
She gingerly leaned forward and clasped his scarred hand in her hand.
Her voice was small and admittedly terrified as she replied.
"The pleasure is mine…um…I am Annabeth Chase, Praetor alongside Frank Zhang." She gestured to Frank who sat in a determined silence next to her.
She then hesitated slightly, unsure how to continue.
"Welcome to Camp Haven."
Please Review! And for those of you who missed it last chapter, I'm looking for good name for twin daughters of Percy and Nico and names for Legolas, Kili and Frodo when they join the Legion.
