Annabeth POV

After four hours we finally got them to sleep well almost all of them, I lay a sleeping Percy down and kissed his forehead.

"Nico please stop crying" Will pleaded close to sobbing himself.

Nico glared and stubbornly refused to shut up

"Any news on Jason" Piper asked warily

"No but Butch and some other campers and Leo and Festus are looking for him"

"How could we lose a baby who knew babysitting would be so hard"

"It's not just any baby it's a powerful demigod son of Jupiter/Zeus"

Everyone had calmed down except for Ares we had to tie him and Kymopoleia down so they wouldn't cause trouble. Speaking of trouble who knew what would happen if we can't find Jason.

"OI PUNKS!" Clarisse yelled

"sshh their sleeping you'll wake them up" I snapped.

"I couldn't care less if Prissy and the other brats wake up wise girl"

"What are you even hear for?"

"Ares my dad need ta sedate him" she grumbled

"No we will not sedate the war god are you out of your mind!"

"Watch Who your talking to punk" Clarisse snarled

"WHERE IS MY BABY BROTHER!" Thali grace in all her glory thundered the smell of ozone thickened and sparks were bouncing off her body.

"We'll find him Thalia I promise" Piper reassured her

"No you won't it's been for hours he could be dead for all we know" she screamed.

"Calm down we'll find him he'll be alright now sleep"

Naturally, Thalia fell asleep we all fell into a comfortable silence enjoying the peace and quiet while it lasted.

"I'm going to check on my cabin and I'll take Nico with me bye" Will announced standing up with a glaring Nico on his hip.

Lucky him

Wills POV

First I'm normally going on with my day in the infirmary then I'm babysitting my boyfriend who was 14 the last time I saw him it's weird how you day can go from normal to weird then to highly disturbing. But I'm a demigod I should be used to this, after all this comes in the job description

I walked in the Apollo to find it empty where are they ?

I basically just walked around camp looking for them during my travels I saw Drew and Lacey having a tea party with Hazel and Makaria Lacey seemed to be enjoying herself but Drew on the other hand…

Melinoe was busy doing a funeral for her dolls

Ares was screaming and yelling all sorts of threats whilst he was tied to Zeus's fist and Triton was talking to the Nymphs .

Hephaestus and Harley were busy making hades knows what and Nyssa supervised.

Everything was pretty calm … oops I jinxed it

I heard depressed sobbing so me and little Nico went to investigate

On the floor lay the Apollo cabin and some others sobbing at Apollo playing a beautiful melody on the harmonica

My eyes were getting watery too

Everyone snapped out off it eventually and left leaving me, Nico, Kayla, Austin and Apollo alone

"That was beautiful da- Apollo"

"I know it was hear this

I can play instruments

Everyone is crying

I am so awesome"

I face palmed

Zeus POV

Finally I thought they'd take forever after paying the bill I walked out with Hermes on my hip it felt weird carrying something so small and fragile

As we walked down the street I felt an odd sensation in my gut telling me that something is not right.

Cautiously, I looked behind me you could never be too careful

Unfortunately, Hermes caught onto my worries

"what's wrong daddy" he asked

"Nothing Hermy"

Don't ask about the nickname I have no idea where it came from when we walked through the ally way I quickened my pace something is not right someone's watching

I was right someone was watching us it was a 7 ft tall Cyclops and it wanted dinner sadly we were the dinner

"Be gone beast you do not know who I am"

I received a growl in response cyclops were never good at socializing so instead he attacked

My first thought should have been protect yourself but no instead my main focus was on protecting my child I tried putting him down but I remembered his leg was in a cast I had no choice but to fight the monster with a four year old dangling off my hip

"I warned you cyclops I AM ZEUS and now you shall face the wrath of my Master bolt!"

I'd like to say that I heroically fried the monster to ashes with lightning but alas that did not happen

I tried summoning my master bolt but nothing came

I called for lightning but the skies were clear my body felt weaker

No this couldn't be

There has to be another explanation

Whilst I was thinking the Cyclops struck his huge fist with long nails towards Hermes

So I selflessly moved my son out of the way and took the blow

I couldn't describe the pain I experienced something wet dripped down my torn shirt

So I looked down and saw ichor but it was not gold in fact it wasn't ichor at all it was blood

I was mortal
