-Nico de Angelo-

I froze to his words, wondering what he intended by it. "I'm getting you out of here-" I explained.

His eyes closed, his fight for air ceased, almost appearing peaceful. My eyes widened as I went to try to keep him awake. To my surprise, his eyes opened again, two bright red irises warned me off as a sudden grin appeared on his expression. So, I backed off, watching as the man managed to stand up with ease. "Follow my lead, and stay close," a deep voice spoke through as he made his way towards Mimas, who was trying to catch Jason and Percy with his hands.

"Uh, you're in no condition to fight-" I started.

"Silence!" The voice couldn't have belonged to the guy. "Hey Mimas!" He snarled, earning his attention.

"You dead." Mimas stared at this odd man like the rest of us.

"Not quite," he smirked, pulling a staff out. "You no longer deal with Amos Kane. You face Set, God of Chaos! And Amos even gave me permission to kick your ass; do you know how rare that is?"

"Uh, what?" Percy broke the silence that followed his words.

"Take advantage! We have a God on our side!" Jason changed the direction of the fight.

"Fools! Stand back!" This 'Set' guy declared with immense rage.

We all readied to protest when he slammed the staff to the ground, forming a huge cavern towards the giant, evidently getting a few of his serpent legs stuck in the crack. "Hey, uh, Set!" Percy started. "If we want to defeat him, we need human and God participation, otherwise you won't be able to kill him."

A nasty snarl escaped his throat as he faced Percy with a death glare. "Amos demands your safety for me to possess him, do you understand that?"

"Lector evil!" Mimas complained as he struggled to get out of the cavern.

"It's Set, you moron!" He corrected as he faced the giant again. "And yes, I am evil."

"Guys, back off!" I instructed quickly.

They managed to listen when 'Set' formed a large tornado between them. Mimas pulled himself out finally and glared at the God through the tornado. "Mother see you die!" He yelled, his voice boomed above the roar of the wind from the storm the God made.

"Good, maybe she'll stop being a coward for once!" Set chuckled as the tornado sucked in the giant.

Jason took immediate advantage of the situation and managed to spark a bolt into the storm, leading to agonized screams from Mimas. Annabeth and Frank threw a spear into it as well, bringing a silence over the room, the storm dying just as quickly as the giant. "I-Is it over?" Piper asked.

"Can't be, it just started," Jason continued.

Set nudged his staff against the giant's left eyelid, earning no reaction. "Well, it was fun while it lasted," he shrugged off and faced us. "Off to New York we go," he announced quickly, leading us out of the room.

"Uh, hold on!" Annabeth started. "What do you think you're doing?"

"Saving your lives, including my host," he explained with ease. "Except the more time I spend in control, the more harm I'm causing to his injuries. So we better hurry this up before we die."

"And how do you plan we go to New York?" Percy asked.

"A portal, where have you been the last few days?" Set snapped.

"Hold on!" I started. "This makes no sense at all. First, the guy is dying, and the next thing I know, some God possessing him like Kronos did to Luke? Don't trust possession, and don't' trust this God!"

"For your information, boy," Set's voice boomed, "Kane asked me to take over to save your asses! I could have killed each of you and continued to New York and he wouldn't know a damn thing!"

Percy nodded in reassurance to us, which I still kept wary as we went about escaping the cave. "Kane!" Gaia's voice screamed into our ears, which all of us tried to cover except the weird guy we just saved.

"Sorry, he's unavailable," Set grinned. "But I am more than willing to fight you if you wish for a quick death."

She laughed to his words. "So he leans on you to finish what he's started, did he? Do you not know the arrangements we made? Either he lures the Pharaoh to me, or he dies in his place!"

Set's eyes burned further, which I honestly didn't believe could be possible. "Amos Kane is my host. I've even made him mark himself in complete red as a warning to all. You overlooked it and treated him with no respect, which means you don't respect me."

"Such chilly words for a small God to say," Gaia mused.

Set grinned now, the light of the entrance coming into view now as we continued on. "You have declared war on Egypt, be ready for complete obliteration," he warned.
