Chaos and Perseus walked side-by-side inspecting the earthly base of operations in New Brunswick and discussed preparations for the coming war.

" Nyx, Erebus and I will prepare magical wards against human and diving modes of transportation including flashing and divine vehicles. The army is on standby per your request. After the wards are in place the rest will be up to you." Chaos said

"Thanks mom I got from here if I need anything I'll let you know." Perseus responded

As chaos flashed away Perseus made his way to the living room where his officers were waiting.

"So what's the plan? You wanna wait for the campers response or blitz olympus right now?" Ethan and Luke asked in tandem. Clarisse, Zoe and Silena simply rolled their eyes at the boys eagerness.

"Nah not just yet we have some stuff to handle first. Namely covering all bases."

"Mission time?" Silena asked

"Mission time." Over the course of his 500 years leading the Army of Chaos Perseus had learned that shooting straight to the point was ineffective. It took a decade or two but the lesson finally took.

"Silena, Ethan, and Zoe are going to hunt for the one thing other than raw power that is guaranteed to end the Gods." He could see the confusion on their faces. "Remember the beast of legend when sacrificed gives the person the power to kill the Gods?"

"The Ophiotaurus." Zoe said.

"Precisely, Zoe you'll lead as a former huntress and your connection to the sea should make it easier. Silena will go as transport and Ethan as stealth op. Time frame 1 week." All three snapped up

"Yessir!" they said in unison. "Luke, Clarisse and I will defend the base if I know the Olympians their having a meeting right now to discuss-" Before he could continue he felt a cold sensation on the back of his neck a technique Tartarus had taught him, they were speaking about him and using his name. He sent a piece of his consciousness into the general direction of New York And locked in immediately when he opened his eyes he could see the 14 Olympians assembled with what remained of the seven from the prophecy.

"Interesting." he thought.

"So what if the runt is back we are stronger than ever!" Ares barked

"The problem Ares, is that we would be even stronger is your spawn, his wife, the child of Hephaestus and the Aphrodite child were still here." Athena argued

"Don't start this again Owl head, Piper and the other chose to fade 300 years ago and you still can't let it go." Aphrodite barked

"It was selfish, now look where we are." Athena argued back

"Mother, Jason was just as powerful as Percy back then and as a god he's even stronger. He's more than a match for Percy not counting you, Lady Artemis or even the big three." Annabeth said

"No." Apollo said.

"Your mother may not want to admit it and the other God may run from it but we felt Percy's full power. He's right up there with the Big Three, almost stronger. Not to mention his companions, if one of them was strong enough to break Zeus bolt then-"

"THEN IT MEANS IT WAS TIME FOR A NEW ONE." Zeus yelled

"They think that was my full power? Good." Percy thought.

"WE ARE THE GODS WE WILL NOT LOSE TO A MORTAL THROWING A TANTRUM. Apollo we need a prophecy."

"You can't just summon-." Apollo's eyes glazed over and glowed green as he spoke

"The weapon lies in the land beyond the Gods, Seek the beast and power it hogs, The bane of Olympus lies to the North, The Sun and War shall lead armies forth, The Two sides shall never be mended if done well, war and the hunt finally ended." Apollo fell forward and was caught by Artemis.

"Excellent. Ares and Apollo shall lead an army towards the power we felt yesterday in Canada. Jason, Annabeth and Artemis will find the beast in Alaska." The members nodded. Perseus simply smiled as his consciousness retreated back to Canada.

As he returned to his body he staggered a bit and caught himself with the table.

"Percy you gotta practice that if you're gonna use it for so long." Ethan said

"How many people are seriously saying my name right now Ethan." He countered.

"So what happened?" Silena asked

"Long story short? I was right about the Ophiotaurus, Zeus dispatched Jason, Annabeth and Artemis to find it in Alaska, that's where we'll look. Also Ares and Apollo are going to lead an invasion."

"They can't flash past the Canadian border so we may have seven days before they get here with their army." Luke said

"What about the rest of the seven?" Clarisse asked

"According to Athena they chose to fade 300 years ago. The plan stands Luke, Clarisse and I will stay behind and defend this base." Luke and Clarisse high fived glad they didn't have to move other than for training.

"Okay get supplies, you all leave tomorrow morning happy hunting."

Sorry it took so long seriously I fell behind 4 midterms in 4 days but we're good now please read and review.

Later, Peacoat
