Chapter 13: All Hell Breaks Loose

The battle cry rang off the hill, and was as loud as a lions roar. Everyone searched the masses of people for the source of the sound. It was not that hard though because the source was running straight out into the middle sword raised. It was Carter but, at the same time it was not. A blue aura surrounded him and made a huge avatar that mimicked his every move. His eyes had turned ice blue and he hand no pupils.

"Carter what are you doing?" called Zia with a pained and worried expression. Carter's aura faded for a second while she spoke but it was hopeless.

"I am not that measly Carter Kane you call friend, I am Horus god of kings and vengeance," said an icy voice nothing like Carter's, "Who will fight me?"

"I will" called a voice peeping up out of the crowd, it was hesitant but firm if that makes sense. The Greeks parted leaving a path for the young hero to walk through.

"No Clarisse I will" said Percy blocking her path.

"Stop it Prissy, it is my time to shine," Clarisse said pushing him away, "Father I ask for your blessing." Ares peered down at his daughter, he gave her a nod and placed his rough hands on her head and muttered a few words in Ancient Greek. Clarisse rose approached Carter, her spear in hand. Her eyes blazed fire just like her father's does. Her brown stringy hair was tied in a tight bun.

"You give me a girl," Carter/Horus laughed, "Never mind I will destroy her. He raised his khopesh and Clarisse raised one of her swords. Slam, their blades clashed and so began the duel. The hill was slilent except for the clang of metal and the heavy breaths of magician and hero.

Annabeth's POV

I watched Clarisse's duel earnestly. She might be a good fighter but she was lacking smarts. If her opponent were wiser then she would be dead. I began to contemplate the camps chances if Sadie decided to attack. We had the quantity not the quality , we could try fighting or we could hide in camp for a while.

"What are you thinking Wise Girl" Percy whispered into my ear. Startled by his question I stumbled forward. Percy caught me and gave me a questioning look.

"I do not know what to do, no matter what people must die. My mom would know but, she is being stubborn so I must think harder." I said hitting my head, Athena always has a plan… Come on Annabeth think!

"Relax, Wise girl, it will be okay" Percy said rubbing my back. I let his words sink in and I believed them until I heard.

"Brooklyn house, ADVANCE," a girls shrill voice shouted. It was Sadie but, not her at the same time. She had icy blue eyes with no pupils just like Carter and her smile was sinister. Walt tried to hold her back but, she snapped at him and he withdrew. By now the Egyptians were a few meters away from our front line.

"Defend, and DO NOT KILL! Just injure," Percy commanded the camp army. It was just about hen that all hell broke loose. Blood coated the field and nymphs tried healing the sick among the clash of swords and the crashes of water. Kids as young as 10 died right in front of me, they never even had a chance. Percy and me stood back to back. He warded off magicians with the flick of his wrist while I stunned and injured others with my dagger. I could tell that campers were not exactly following orders. A kid from the Hermes cabin stabbed a magician in the gut and stole his weapons. Others broke the bones of the enemies so technically they were not killing.

"Annabeth go invisible and help Clarisse she looks tired," Percy said, "I will be fine"

I put on my cap and I ran towards Clarisse. She did look tired, her forehead covered in sweat and her face beat red. It looked like she could die any minute. I was about to disarm Carter when a horn that was strangely familiar blew. It reminded me of hunting.
