Hello people! "It's little me, back from DC!" lol if you watched the Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
Aren't you going to ask me how DC was?
No.
DC was great. I saw the Capitol, the White House, the Iwo Jima memorial, the Lincoln memorial—
They don't care.
*GASP!*

jk whatever. anyways, thanks to all those who reviewed:
Reyna23 - our bus had ac, thank the gods.
Saving Grace - DC was great! sorry, you can't have a battle without casualties...
annabethlover175 - pancake! (••) om nom nom! yummy!
Mysterious Side Of The Moon - thank you. i have no idea what you are talking about when you say "What do you mean by 'because of your comment'?" and that's never going to be answered because this is the last chapter.
Louisa4533 - actually Percy doesn't actually say what her name is, he just says that Reyna is about his age, so technically Reyna could be 15 in the SoN. right now she's like fourteen and its August 18 and her birthday comes before SoN so she'll turn 15 before SoN.
TheMysteriousHi - if you go back to the previous chapter and reread Kampê's and Krios' argument, Krios says that he brought Kampê back from Tartarus
the electric phantom - thanks
vball17girl - yay wapple came to DC! if you go back to the previous chapter and reread Kampê's and Krios' argument, Krios says that he brought Kampê back from Tartarus
I am Thalia daughter of Zeus - did you change you're avatar? its pwetty!

here's a little song that I think is funny (sung to the Battle Hymm of the Republic) :
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the burning of the school
We have tortured all the teachers, we have broken every rule
We have ransacked all the offices and hung the principal
March on, eighth grade, march on.

Glory, glory, hallelujah.
Teacher hit me with a ruler.
Hit her on the beanie with a rotten tangerineie
Teacher don't teach no more.

"Experience is the teacher of all things." - Julius Ceasar

As Jason, Beth, and their army charged up the mountain from the east, squinting from facing the setting sun, I couldn't help feel in awe by the great numbers and power our camp held. I just hoped it'd be enough.

I joined the Fifth as each cohort broke off from the crowd and attacked lines of enemies. There were several troops demigods and mortals, but the real challenge was Kampê and Krios.

Jason ordered, the Third, the Fourth, and Fifth to attack, but only kill when necessary, the demigods and mortals, then he left to attack Krios. Beth, the First and the Second charged at Kampê.

Jason sprinted up the mountain to Krios.

"Well, well, well, what do we have here?" Krios laughed beneath his stupid ram's horns.

Jason ignored him and attacked. He held his golden lance in his right hand and a shield in his left. Right away, Jason dropped his shield to lessen the weight he had to carry.

Krios towered over Jason; he stood about eight feet tall, but Jason had the advantage. Jason was smaller, lighter, and quicker. Jason dodged each attack from Krios, jabbing back once in a while. Krios' attacks couldn't seem to hit Jason.

Krios howled in frustration, lowered his head, and charged like a bull towards Jason. The pointed end of his ram's horns pierced Jason's armor and pinned him against a rock.

"You have bravery, son of Jupiter. Pity I must destroy you now." Krios said as Jason struggled to remove the armor that was pinned to the rock. Krios threw back his head and laughed. As the pressure on Jason's armor lessened, Jason slipped out of the torso part of his armor and dropped to the ground.

"WHAT!?" Krios growled in surprise. He charged at Jason again, but this time Jason was ready. He leapt to the side and stabbed Krios in the rib cage. Krios howled and golden Ichor dripped down his side.

The sun had set by now and the stars sparkled in the night. I stared as the golden Ichor started to flow up and back into Krios' body and the cut Jason's lance had made started to heal. "Haha, little Roman. I cannot be defeated while the stars and constellations shine over my head."

I suddenly had an idea. I broke off from the tortoise formation and ran to where Jason was dodging Krios' attacks.

"Jason!" I shouted. "Over here!" Jason looked over at me. Krios slashed open Jason's shoulder. I winced in guilt, but it was necessary. I pointed to a small cave in the mountain. Jason's eyes widened as he understood my plan.

Jason ran around to Krios' other side. Krios spun around like Jason hoped he would. Jason advanced with his lance and Krios backed up with each of Jason's attacks. Krios tripped and landed in the mouth of the cave. I kicked him repeatedly until his body was fully in the cave.

Jason stepped into the shadows. "You are no longer under the stars. The constellations no longer protect you." Jason shouted, his voice echoing around the cave. "I am Jason Grace, son of Jupiter! I am a child of Rome, consul to demigods, praetor of the Twelfth Legion Fulminata! I slew the Trojan sea monster and now I am going to destroy you!" Jason lifted his lance and plunged it into Krios' heart. Krios wailed as his essence returned to the deepest pit of Tartarus.

Jason turned towards me, his face grave. "Thank you," Jason mumbled. I nodded. "Come on, looks like Beth needs help." I glanced back and saw that Beth and about half of her troops were lying on the ground either moaning from injuries or dead. Jason and I raced over to Kampê. She had noticed that Krios had been destroyed and howled.

"YOU! Son of Jupiter! You have destroyed our commander, Krios, Titan of the South, and you will die for it!" She flapped her wings and took to the air. Kampê landed in front of Jason and swung her barbed tail at him. I ducked in time to dodge Kampê's tail, but Kampê's tail slammed into Jason and swept him off his feet. He stumbled back and tried to pull out the spikes imbedded in his chest.

I shouted defiantly. No one hurts Jason. I ordered the campers from the First and Second still standing to attack Kampê. As Kampê tried to beat off about forty campers all attacking at once, I ran, leapt up into the air and sliced off her head with my dagger. Campers scrambled back as Kampê's head landed on the ground and the rest of her body disintegrated. That was the most disgusting spoil of war I had ever seen.

I suddenly realized that the mountain was quiet. This place was no longer Mount Othrys; it was simply Mount Tam. Now that both Krios and Kampê had been destroyed, most of the enemy demigods and mortals stopped fighting. Even Atlas shut his mouth and stopped complaining.

Jason walked up to me, wrapped his arms around me, and kissed me. The camped cooed. I should've been embarrassed, but I only felt happy to be with Jason.

Somebody, probably Dakota, cleared his throat. Jason stepped back.

Suddenly, as if they were one, the entire camp cheered and lifted me up onto their shields. I felt like I was flying. My heart soared. Jason's face glowed with pride as he beamed at me. Gwen waved and Dakota and Bobby grinned.

Beth glared at me. I was stealing all her glory, her praetorship, and her guy. She must have been as jealous as hell, but I didn't care. I smiled back at her.

"We accept Reyna, Daughter of Bellona as praetor, for defeating Kampê in the Attack on Mount Othrys as an act of valor!" The camp shouted. The white-hot iron pressed against my forearm once again. It didn't hurt any less than it did the first two times, but I felt like I could withstand any pain for the happiness in my heart at that moment.
