Hello everyone! Im so sorry for leaving this story for so long. I tried to write a good chapter, but it slightly hurt me to. You'll understand why when you read it. I hope you guys enjoy it! (Whoever Troy is, I know you're gonna LOVE this chapter)

Magnus

Seeing as I'm fully healed now, I stand up and follow Zach out the door.

Alex and I end up rushing side by side. I can see that she looks nervous.

"You wanna stick together or split up?" Alex asks me.

"Uh, stick together." I answer.

We both can fight, and I can heal Alex if something goes wrong. I don't think I could stand it if she got too hurt.

"Alright, lets go."

The fighting raged on for a good while. Alex and I go around the Tribe, killing monsters and trying to help people. I hate to say it, but most of the people I try to heal end up dying.

As I heal the people, I get glimpses of their memories. A birthday party, a friend, a parent hitting them, groups of people punching them, parents leaving their kids for dead. I can see why they turned against them.

"Maggie, over here!" Alex shouts at me.

I kill this cheerleader with flaming hair, then run to where Alex is. She's with a girl who looks a lot like me. She can't be more than thirteen. There's blood staining her shirt, the spot growing.

"Healing magic, stacked!" Alex shouts at me.

I kneel down beside the girl. She looks up at me, pain in her eyes.

She growls at me. "I ain't gonna be helped by him."

"Come on, you might die if I don't." I prepare myself to heal her.

The girl growls at me. "I ain't takin any help my dead beat of a father's gonna give me."

I now realize she's a daughter of Frey. Oh, now I have to help her.

"It'll only take a second." I activate my powers.

The girl grabs my hand, making me lose focus. "What I just say? I ain't takin that bastards charity."

The girl coughs, blood spraying everywhere. She takes a shaky breath, then drifts away.

Are these people that desperate to not have anything to do with their parents? Why would they rather die? I get that stuff happened, but really?

"Come on, Maggie." Alex grabs my arm, and gently pulls me away. "We need to keep fighting."

"Yeah." I nod, still a little startled as I stare at my half-sisters corpse. "Yeah, lets go."

As the fighting continues, I can't tell if we're gaining or losing more people.

Corpses litter the Tribe. Monsters feast on flesh as the dust of their fallen partners is blown away by the wind.

More of the god-worshippers come out to fight, including Percy, Frank, and that Sadie girl. Percy stuck with me for a little while before following Justin to deal with some Mintour thing.

Next thing I know, it's quiet.

Nothing's moving. No one is shouting, monsters aren't screeching. It's just, well, silent.

Someone is climbing to the top of the Cave. I can't make out who it is.

"If you're alive," The person shouts from up there. "Come come to the Cave immediately."

That sounds a lot like that Vanessa girl.

Alex and I walk back to the Cave, looking at the carnage around us. So many demigods and magicians, most of them not even adults, are just dead. There's so much blood everywhere, I don't know how I'm standing it. It's worse than when we have battles with dragons.

When we get there, everyone who came with us is already there. The five Heads are there too.

Andy is crying, Nicky holding her with tears in his eyes. It's nice to know they're still there for each other even though it was apparent that they were fighting a little while ago.

Charlie looks like he can't believe what's going on, and Vanessa is crying on his shoulder. Justin is hugging himself, and Zach looks indifferent.

"Is this it?" Justin asks, anger in his voice.

"I think it is." Reyna answers.

Justin starts shaking his head. "No."

"Justin-" Zach looks like he's gonna try and calm Justin down.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, NO!" Justin storms off. "I'm finding the others!"

Nobody stops Justin as he walks away onto the battlefield.

"What about the little kids?" Zia asks. "Did you get them somewhere safe?"

Andy starts crying even harder.

"S-Some monsters were able to break into the littles room." Nicky explains to us shakily. "No one besides Andy made it out."

"Why me?" Andy sobs. "Why me and not them?"

"Shhh shh." Nicky holds Andy a little tighter. "It'll be okay."

"They're all gone!" Andy cries. "Everyone's gone!"

My heart hurts. None of them deserve this.

"Are we seriously it?" I overhear Sadie whisper to someone.

I glance and see Walt putting an arm around Sadie. The magician is crying.

"NO!" Justin's voice echos from far away. "NO NO NO!"

All of the Heads look heartbroken.

"I'm going to get him." Zach says, making his way out of the Cave.

"We'll get the fire." Charlie says, and he and Vanessa go into the Cave.

We're all left with Nicky and Andy.

Andy sniffs, wiping her eyes. "T-Thank all of you for helping. It means a lot."

"Yeah." Nicky nods. "We owe you after all that."

Justin is shouting something unintelligible from outside.

I really can't believe that none of us could save anyone. The whole population of this place besides five people was just wiped out.

Charlie and Vanessa come back with a torch. The torch is lit with a blue flame.

Zach had come back with a terrible looking Justin. He had red eyes and drying blood all over his body. Zach held him close despite how dirty he was.

Charlie leaves Vanessa, then walks outside. Next thing I know, the place is covered in blue flames. It seems like the fire is just burning the bodies and blood, and nothin else.

Alex leans against me. I look down and see that she's crying.

I wrap an arm around her, and watch as the blue fire engulfs the bodies of everyone who was lost.
