AN: Hey Everyone! I hope you are enjoying my story so far! (Is that getting a little repetitive?) Oh yeah, and sorry for not being able to update every few days now, school and homework are really kicking in. Even though I am only able to update on Sunday's, I will try to update sooner.
Last Chapter:
Percy finds the "good within the pit" and gets granted fire powers. Blue fire powers.
Now:
Chapter 27- Wandering and plotting
Percy POV
I look at the cloaked figures who had just granted me fire powers.
"Err… So, what now?" I ask, trying to break the awkward silence that had occurred after they had proclaimed me "special."
"Umm… What about Minor flash?" the middle guy says.
"Good idea!" says another.
"You guys are idiots" says Firleader.
"So… What's minor flash?" I ask.
"It allows you to teleport about 20 meters." Says Firleader before any of the others could answer.
"Ok" I say.
"So, just teleport down the hall there" says Firleader, pointing down a passage.
I close my eyes and focus on the power running through my veins. I could sense the rough fire pool, the smooth water pool, but then I felt something smoother, and way faster flowing.
I reach out towards it and start pulling on it, and I feel a weird tug behind my navel, and suddenly I was down the other end of the hall, in the exact spot I had been focusing on.
"Wow! Awesome!" I say.
"No, not awesome. You splinched" says one of the figures, looking horrified.
I slowly look down to where he was looking.
"ARGH!" I yell, looking at where my left hand used to be.
I look down the other end of the corridor and see my hand, laying on the floor. Surprisingly, there was no blood.
Firleader rolls his eyes and picks up my hand from the floor. He walks down the hallway towards me and puts my hand back. Then orange flame flies from his palm and starts sealing my hand back in place.
Luckily it didn't hurt, thanks to my new fire powers.
"Alright, try teleport back down the hall" Firleader says after the process was done.
I sigh, and concentrate on the other end of the hallway.
Suddenly I was down the other end of the hall.
"Yow!" I yell, looking at the place my foot used to be.
18 splinchings later and I could finally teleport without losing a body part.
I shudder, remembering the one where I splinched my crotch.
"Perseus! You must now leave the Pit, and return to Earth! Be gone! That is an Order!" Firleader barked.
I nod, and walk out the main doors to the gates and the guards.
I was let through, and as soon as I was past the gates, the red dust flew into my eyes, and the heat came back.
I look to the distance to see a tall tower of rock, a huge purple, crystal like ball floating on top of it.
'That's got to be the way out' I think to myself, and gritting my teeth, I begin the long journey towards the distant tower.
Time Skip: 6 hours later
I sit down on the dusty, rocky ground, massaging my aching legs. The tower was only a few hundred meters away, and I wanted to preserve energy for my escape.
With a sigh, I stand up, my legs aching and sending pain through all the nerves. Stretching, I start towards the rock tower.
It was a pitch black, and loomed above me. I could just see the floating crystal-like purple ball high in the tower, electricity radiating off it. The tower itself was a huge rock, carved to form many spikes on the outside of it. I could make out battlement like areas high up, and rock walls jutting out of the rock, forming covered platforms for archers.
Surprisingly, the entire place looked empty.

Third Person POV
"Sir! The watchers have spotted a lone figure in the distance, walking towards us. He looks humanoid, so he must be attempting to return to Planet of Humans." Said Orix.
"Good… We were expecting it to come. I have direct orders from the Lord to ambush any human walking towards the tower" whispers Menac.
"What formation will it be, sir?" asks Orix.
"I declare formation 7" says Menac menacingly.
"Yes Milord" replies Orix, an evil smile came to him. Death formation.
Orix exited the room, and walked towards the Commander.
"Commander!" he called.
"Sub-Cornate Orix" he greeted with a slight incline of the head.
"Inform the sneakers to get into formation 7, and inform the watchers to make themselves scarce. All archers and warriors are to move directly to Area 7. That is not a drill!" says Orix.
"Yes Sir!" says the Commander, an evil grin playing at his lips.
With that, Orix moved to area 7.
Menac eyes narrowed. Something was off. Suddenly he realised what it was.
"Cardt! Out here!" yells Menac menacingly.
"Y-Y-yes-s Milord?" Cardt asks frightfully.
"Prepare the Cultet, I want a brutal murder"
