Are you okay?" Percy asked Annabeth
"I'll be fine." Annabeth said. "Just get me down before I ruin the upholstery."
"Help! I can't breathe!" Pain said.
'Hurry!" Panic said.
"Get us out!" Pain said.
"We're suffocating!" Pain said.
"Somebody call IX-I-I!" Panic said.
"Easy, fellas. You'll be all right." Percy said.
"We can't last much longer!" Pain said.
"Get us out before we get crushed!" Panic said.
Percy lifted the boulder and let them out.
"How you boys doin'?" Percy said.
"We're okay now." Pain said.
"Jeepers, mister. You're really strong." Panic said.
"Well, just try to be a little more careful next time, okay, kids?" Percy said.
"We sure will." Pain said.
They went to Hades and transformed back.
"Stirring performance, boys." Hades said. "I was really moved."
""Jeepers, mister"?" Pain said.
"I was going for innocence." Panic said.
"And, hey, two thumbs way, way up for our leading lady." Hades said. "What a dish. What a doll."
"Get outta there, ya big lug, while ya still can." Annabeth said.
Percy ran over to Grover.
"Grover, I-I did great." Percy said. "They even applauded. Sort of."
"Huh! I hate to burst your bubble, kid...but that ain't applause." Grover said.
A huge three headed monster came out of the cave.
"Gr-Gr-Gr-Grover? What do you call that thing?" Percy said.
"Two words: am-scray!" Grover said.
"Let's get ready to rumble!" Hades said up on his ledge.
"That's it. Dance around! Dance around! Watch the teeth! Watch the teeth! Keep going. Come on. Come on. Lead with your left. Lead with your left. Your other left! Whoa! All right! All right! You're bad! Okay!" Grover said as Percy cut off the heads.
"See, Grover? That... That wasn't so hard." Percy said.
"Kid, kid, kid. How many horns do you see?" Grover said.
"Six?" Percy said.
"Eh, close enough." Grover said. "Let's get you cleaned up."
"Guys, guys, relax. It's only halftime." Hades said.
"That doesn't sound good." Grover said as the monster started to get up. "Definitely not good!"
Percy tried slicing it's head.
"Will you forget the head-slicing thing?" Grover said.
"Grover, I don't think we covered this one in basic training!" Percy said.
The monster swallowed Percy.
"My favorite part of the game: sudden death." Hades said.
"Oh. There goes another one. Just like Achilles." Percy said.
"Game...set, match." Hades said.
Just then Percy sliced through it's belly and killed it.
"Grover, you gotta admit." Percy said. "That was pretty heroic."
"Ya did it, kid! Ya did it! Ya won by a landslide!" Grover said.
Hades was in flames.
