Okay, so here is the newest chapter! I tried to make the battle seem energetic, but also quick, because I know you guys like Percy and Annabeth more. So, here you go, I'm gonna stop talking and answer reviews:
Ace1412: To tell the truth what I really want 2 see is Nico some how get a girlfriend. It could be some character that you create or you could even use a current character like Reyna. Now that would be cool 2 read. I can't wait for the next chapter. Hope you have a nice day! Ummm... well, I guess I could, I never thought about that, but your right, I could. The thing is, something is gonna come up that will make some of you people cry. *SPOILER*
So... I'll admit, I was disappointed that this was the only review. I ask you guys all the time to give me reviews! If you give me ideas, I think about it! Seriously I want more reviews! So, here's the new chapter, enjoy!
Nico
They were all peering out at the company of Telekhines and Draecanae. They had apparently seen the Argo II, because they were all armed and in formation. There was a cyclops there, and it was obviously the leader. It's breastplate and backplate looked heavy, and it had pauldrons. The pauldrons had human skulls decorating it, at irregular intervals. It had massive shinguards, extending a couple feet over his knees. It had gauntlets, they looked like mittens, but they were the same material as everything else. He wore a full-face helmet, leaving one small hole open for the eye. The helmet had ram horns on the side, which made it fearsome. This cyclops had spear, and a shield the size of an NBA backboard. This cyclops was twenty feet tall at least, it made Tyson look like a baby.
"So, how are we going to do this?" Jason asked.
"How about we get Festus to torch them." Frank suggested.
"Festus only listens to Leo, and he's out of comission." Nico replied. It was true, Festus only listened to Leo, anyone else risked becoming a barbecue. "I think the biggest problem, will be that Cyclops." and that was true too, this Cyclops looked like he could throw a garbage truck five miles. They would be able to handle him, if it weren't for the rest of his friends. The company of all those Telekhines and Draecanae made this very difficult. He couldn't see any other way, except to go right through them.
"Why can't anything be easy?" Hazel muttered.
"We're demi-gods, since when is anything easy." Nico whispered back.
"Well, I think we should get the party started, don't you?" Jason asked.
"I think it's rude to keep them waiting." Nico said. Frank nodded, and he dropped the rope ladder. The ship was about 200 yards from the enemies, so they had time to climb down. Nico was the last to go down, he kept an eye on the baddies. He got down, and looked at everyone. They nodded their heads, showing that they were ready. "Frank, fir your arrows, keep moving, try to thin their ranks." Frank nodded in understanding. "Jason, Coach Hedge, and myself will be advancing in the front." Jason, and Coach Hedge showed their understanding. "Piper and Hazel will be behind us," Nico said, pointing to the two, "you'll be reserves, if anyone looks like they need help, go help them, that includes you Frank."
"Alright, but what about the Cyclops?" Frank asked.
"Try to avoid him, if possible, but in all, leave him to me." Nico stated, making it clear that there are to be no exceptions. Everyone nodded, and they started jogging towards the enemy. They got closer, now only 150 yards away, and Frank was firing, one, two, three, then he jogs a little while, then one, two, three, repeat. They were now 100 yards away, Franks arrows were having an obvious effect. Gaps were appearing in the moster lines, and Nico could hear the Cyclops roaring orders. 50 yards away, and Jason started yelling, so did Coach Hedge, and Nico joined them.
They smashed into the lines, stabbing and slashing, or bashing. Nico sliced one Draecanae, then killed a Telekhine, and turned and stabbed another. His Stygian Iron blade flashing like a dark shadow, and monsters fell before it. He turned and saw two Draecanae ganging up on him, he swung his blade out, caught one in the neck, and the other thrust her spear at him. He rolled to his side, and swung out with his blade, slicing it in the ribs. He stood up, and saw that Frank was helping Jason fight a platoon of Telekhines, and he saw Hazel and Piper helping Coach Hedge batter a squad of Draecanae. The Cyclops began lumbering towards him, and it yelled at him, "I am Kepherotyte, I am seconf-in-command to Enceldaus, who is made to defeat Athena!" it roared, "You cannot hope to beat me!"
He has one Hades of a big ego! Nico scoffed. He charged Kepherotyte, and ducked under one of his spear thrusts. He came up behind the cyclops, and stabbed him in the back, it bounced harmlessly off his armor. Kepherotyte turned around and stabbed his spear downwards, Nico lunged to the side, narrowly avoiding it. While he was on the ground, he kicked the cyclopses shin, but he laughed as if he were just a fly. He grabbed Nicoby the neck, and brought him up close, "You see, you have no hope!" Kepherotyte hissed at him, "I told you that you couldn't beat me!" he started laughing.
"Hey idiot!" Nico yelled.
"What, insect!?" he yelled.
"Next time, don't make the hole for your eye so big!" and Nico drove his blade home. Kepherotyte sreamed in pain, and began crumpling into powder. The monsters, seeing their leader dead, dropped their weapons and began running in all directions. He had fallen to the ground, getting the air knocked out of him. He got up, gasping for sweet air, and looked around. What he saw pleased him, there were at least a hundred piles of dust, meaning the majority of the monsters were killed. Now, all they had to do was make it through the traps, get to the doors, and save Percy and Annabeth...
Okay, so here's the battle. Enceldaus was a giant who was made to oppose Athena, I didn't make that up. So I'm serious! I want more reviews, don't disappoint! I want as many reviews as possible! I want enough that will make me satisfied! But, As Always, Have A Nice Day!
