Percy

I woke up when someone started shaking my shoulder slightly yet firmly.

I opened my eyes to look up into Fang's dark ones. "Mourning, we're almost there," He said as he lent over and tapped Iggy's hand waking him up.

"Mourning," I replied gently shaking Annabeth awake. A minute later we were all awake.

The next quarter of an hour was torture, the anxiety of being so close to the end of our quest and our ADHD blended to form a whole new level of restlessness. We paced, we fidgeted and we chatted a lot.

When the train finally stopped we dived out the doors and into the Sacramento mourning air. Then we high tailed it away from the train station.

"Alright we may as well quickly get something to eat before we head up the hill, no use fighting on an empty stomach," Annabeth said and we all nodded and headed to the nearest fast food place.

Once we were all full we got a Taxi and drove towards the mountain. "Are you kids sure you want to get out here?" The driver asked and we all nodded and chucked him some mortal money before jumping out.

"Well there it is, Mt Tam," I said and they all nodded. "So what's so special about this mountain anyway?" Gazzy asked staring up at the top. "Well it's where the Titan base Mt Othrys was and where Atlas holds up the sky and the garden of the hesperides is near here as well," Annabeth said and they all nodded obviously getting that it was a very bad mountain.

"Hang on, quiet for a second," Iggy said and we all shut up. "Can you guys hear that?" He asked the others not so much Annabeth and me. "Yeah it sounds like fighting, that's not a good sign, lets go," Max said starting her way up the hill.

"Wait, wouldn't it be quicker if you guys just flew us up there?" I asked not wanting to waste any time if someone was in trouble. They shrugged "I guess but then they'd see us and we'd loose the element of surprise if we even still have it," Iggy said and Annabeth and I nodded.

"What if we stop just before the summit and walk the rest of the way?" Annabeth asked. Max looked at Fang who shrugged in a couldn't hurt gesture.

They all took off their jackets and tied them around their wastes. Then they all spread their wings. Max, Fang and Iggy all had a 14ft wingspan but where Max's were white and brown, Fang's were black and they almost shone purple in the sun light, Iggy's were white with hints of black on them like a large sea bird.

Nudge's wings were slightly smaller maybe 12ft and were a tawny colour kind of like a hawk. Gazzy's were smaller still about 10ft and sort of resembled owls wings. Angels were about 8ft and were pure white like a doves.

I blinked a few times still not used to the idea of them having wings. "Wow," Annabeth and I said at the same time and they smiled. "Alright how should we do this?" Max asked.

"We could take a hand each and carry them up," Iggy suggested. I shook my head "Na Zeus could still blast me out of the sky, I have to be closer to one of you guys because I really don't want to be fried." They nodded and Max and Fang exchanged a look then walked over to us.

Fang wrapped his arms around me and Max did the same to Annabeth. Before I could say anything he jumped up taking me with him and started moving his wings.

Pretty soon we were high above the ground and the others all flew up to meet us. I looked over to where Annabeth was with Max and saw her looking around intently.

"Alright lets go," Max said and we sped up the mountain staying close to the slope so we wouldn't be seen. It was a weird but still pretty awesome experience. It was different from riding a Pegasus because there was nothing under you but air.

When we were just below the summit we started heading down. We landed softly and Fang let go of me. Annabeth who had landed first walked over with a somewhat awestruck look on her face.

Seconds later the others landed as well and they all tucked their wings back in and shrugged on their leather jackets. Going from genetic experiments to regular looking in a second.

"That was, wow," Annabeth said and the others smiled a little, even Fang. "Yeah that was unreal," I said. They shrugged "One of the joys of being mutant bird kids, lets go," Max said and we started up towards the summit.

The scene that awaited us was not a pretty one.

Like my dream the mountain was covered in monsters, but unfortunately that wasn't all that was there. Among the monster were two kids, both of them wore armor over jeans and purple shirts and both held weapons that seemed to be made of gold.

Two things were completely obvious, they weren't noobies and they weren't from camp.

Anyway they were completely surrounded by monsters and dreadfully close to being over run. More disturbing than that though was that where Atlas usually held the sky were two more kids.

They were dressed pretty much the same as the other two, they were on their knees looking like they were struggling under an invisible burden. I searched the mountain again to find Atlas standing off to the side laughing at the scene before him.

That was definitely not good. "Ah who's the big guy?" Gazzy asked worriedly "Atlas," I said angrily. "Then who's holding the sky?" Angel asked obviously getting the seriousness of this situation. "Those two kids and by the look of things they are very close to passing out, or dying," Annabeth said adding that last bit as an after thought.

"Okay, so what would happen then?" Max asked. "The world would most likely Implode," Annabeth said. "Okay that's bad, alright you guys deal with the big guy, i'll handle the sky," She said.

I whipped around to face her "Whoa are you sure? I've held the sky before and trust me it's not all that fun." She shrugged "I'm betting it will be better than imploding, besides you have the curse of Achilles and more experience fighting titans so you'll have a better chance of getting him back under the sky," She said.

"Alright, Percy and I'll take Atlas," Annabeth said and Max nodded. "I've got your back," Fang said to Max who smiled a little. "Good, keep the monsters off me okay?" He nodded and Max turned to the others.

"Alright you guys need to fight your way over to those other kids and help them out," She said and the others nodded determined. "Alright let's go," She said and we all took the last few steps up onto the summit.

Everything there simultaneously turned to look at us, except the kids holding the sky. "Perseus Jackson and Annabeth Chase!" Atlas's voice boomed angrily.

"Hey big ugly, didn't think we'd miss this party did you?" I asked. "I see you have brought some little friends with you, how nice, but they won't help and there's no goddess here to help you this time!" He yelled laughing evilly.

"So this is Atlas, I thought you'd be taller, you're just as ugly as I'd imagined though," Max said calmly. "You dear speak to me that way you little nobody!" Atlas said glaring at Max who surprisingly didn't even flinch.

"Whoa, nobody, I don't think I've ever been called that before, I guess we'll just have to destroy your little army here and see if i'm still a nobody," She said smiling slightly.

Atlas yelled in rage "You insolent child, once I've gotten my revenge against Jackson you'll be next!" Max just shrugged. "Good luck with that," She said stepping forward and the battle broke out again.

The monsters continued their assault on the two kids who went back on the defensive shooting glances our way every so often.

Atlas came charging towards us giant javelin in hand and Annabeth and I drew our weapons.

The others pulled their weapons as well and charged the army of monsters as Max and Fang battled their way towards the two kids struggling under the sky. This was going to be hard.

Silly Atlas anyway the next chapter will be Max's P.O.V. Who are the mysterious 4 demigods? who will win? find out when I update in the next few days.
