Last chapter, Percy's POV:

I looked between all five of them, glaring furiously. "Can someone please explain what the hell is going on!" I shouted.

Another voice, a small voice, young, said, "I can."

_12:09 pm, Last Tuesday. Kronos Research Facility, Manhattan, New York_

I pushed through the large double doors, interrupting whatever meeting Luke was in. He turned to me, a frown on his face. "Sagittarius, what are you doing?" Luke asked.

"What are you doing?" I countered. "You kidnapped and mutated three innocent people, destroyed Central Park, sentenced another innocent life to an eternity in hell, and for what?"

"Sage, this must be done." Luke said.

"Of course, so that you can do whatever you fucking want once you've taken Grey Shadow and Hurricane out of the picture." I said.

"That's not the only reason, we will discuss—"

"We will discuss now." I stated in a warning tone. "Everyone else, out."

When no one moved, I turned and glared, blowing my hand in a wide arch, causing pointy, ice crystals to appear on the ground. "I said out!" I yelled, my voice rising greatly. They stumbled backwards, making their way out of the room.

I turned to Luke, who was just watching me with a blank face. "This is stupid, Lucas. Your upset, because of god knows what, and your doing illegal shit! I want answers, now!"

"All in good time,"

"Luke, I'm being serious." I said.

"I gave you life, I don't need to answer to you!" Luke exclaimed.

"I didn't ask for you to bring me from the dead." I said. "No one asked you to bring that poor girl either. No asked for you to mutate them, take control off their minds."

"But I did it, anyway." Luke said. "For the greater good, Sagittarius. When the great being rises, the world must be ready. That includes the demise of those two teenage pricks."

"No Lucas," I said. "You know this is wrong."

"Those who have come before have died trying to uncover the secrets The Crooked One. I shall succeed, bringing the world into a new age."

"Your crazy," I stated, shoving his shoulder as I walked past him.

"You're a traitor."

I paused, not turning to him. "What, did you say to me?"

"You don't think, that I don't know what you've been doing?" Luke asked, laughing at the end. "You, sneaking around, meeting with, with that lady. Whatever her name is. Your plotting against me. I give you kudos, for lasting this long. Unfortunately—"

I turned around, thrusting my hand out and sending an icy blast at Luke, sending him flying backwards. Luke chuckled painfully, his hand holding down a pager. "It didn't have to be this way, Sagittarius." Luke said shaking his head. "Send in the Titans."

I let out an unladylike grunt, sending four icy blasts at him, locking his wrists to the walls and his ankles to the ground. I could hear the sound of the Titans running down the hall, shouting out orders. I ran to a table, picking up a dagger before finding the small hatch in the floor. I pulled it up, slipping my legs down inside. "You'll regret this," Luke shouted at me. "I'll kill you! I'll kill all of you! It will be my world, made new!"

I slid down the hatch, hearing the metal door shut behind me. I landed at the bottom, rolling on the hard dirt. I looked back up the way I came, sealing the hatch with ice. Quickly, I got to my feet, looking around the underground tunnel. I felt around the small room, feeling for the small metal door against the dirt-covered walls.

Just as I grasped the door handle, I felt it twist in my fingers. Crawling against the far wall (which wasn't even that far), I held my breath, feeling the temperature dropping. The door creaked, light spilling in as it was forced open. First to come into my line of view: a mop of messy brown hair.

I physically relaxed, crawling forward. "How'd you know I'd be here?" I asked, crawling into the hall.

"Luke called for a lock-down," Connor Stoll explained. "I figured your cover was blown. Travis and Beckendorf are out guarding this exit. Once we get close enough, they'll distract the other two guards—Prometheus and Atlas—so we can get out."

"Okay."

(Percy stood from his seat on the crate, pacing the deck. "I'm so confused." he said. "Connor Stoll, he goes to school with me. So why is he in your story?"

"Stop interrupting and maybe you'll find out." Piper stated.

"But—"

"Sit." Jason said. "Sage, go on.")

Once we reached the end of the tunnel, Connor looked at me, nodding to the door. "Blow some ice under there," Connor whispered. I nodded, pushing my fingers out and sending the ice out. Connor counted to ten under his breath, his hand pressed against the door. "Apertus," he whispered, then pushed on the door.

Indeed, Connor was right; Travis and Charles were out there, talking loudly about god knows what, to the two other guards, who had their backs to us. Connor slowly got to his feet, then pulled me out of the hole, putting my wrists behind my back. When I looked at him curiously, he nodded for me to go along with it.

He slowly moved backwards, heading behind the far wall. Looking over his shoulder, he let go of my wrists, motioning foe me to follow him. We ran down the alley, reaching the end in record time. Connor pulled out a set of keys, manually unlocking the car hidden beneath garbage.

I went around to the other side, climbing in just as Connor did. The engine roared to life, the windshield wipers brushing off the pieces of cardboard.

~Sleepless Saviors~

_3:48 pm, Last Wednesday. Goode School for Special Needs, Long Island, New York_

I stood before Frank and Hazel, who were sitting down on Hazel's bed. "Okay, this is a sorta long story." I started. "Basically, there were these science guys who were in way over their heads and ended up killing themselves. In the process, they managed to create our lovely superheroes, Grey Shadow and Hurricane. One of their interns tried to give himself superpowers, which went horribly wrong. It messed with his brain and stuff. So, he did the obvious thing: he started kidnapping people and experimenting with them.

"Fast forward to last year, one of his scientists managed to somehow bring Hazel from the dead. But, for reasons I cannot disclose, they decided experimenting on you, Hazel, was a no go. So then they brought me, which worked, duh. So once they perfected the superpower thing, they tried again on the intern. Unfortunately, his body rejected it. So he started building an Army, the Titan Army.

"Rewind about six hundred years ago, there was another dude, and omnipotent. And fighting him was basically impossible cause once you did something to him his body'd adapt and it wouldn't work again. Finally, they were able to cut him down to little Omnipotent-Pieces and buried them far in the ground.

"Back to a few years ago, the intern, Luke, learned about our omnipotent friend, The Crooked One. So he's been trying to bring his essence back, hosting him and whatever. Unfortunately, he needs to be able to have control of all people with special abilities, including Grey Shadow and Hurricane. So he's been trying to either kill them or capture them, by form the Titan Army.

"Then there's us, the Olympian Army. We actually have free will, or aren't crazy and all that. A lot of us we're working undercover, trying to figure out what they were up to. Unfortunately, Luke figured us out. So now we need your help to get in there and stop them."

Hazel blinked, looking at me like I was crazy. "What?" Frank asked in disbelief.
