OK, this is a mess, I completely forgot to add something. Baxie had lost her battle axe (She loses them a lot) and I forgot to add that she got another one from the big three. Oops. Its a battle axe with one side made of fire and the other made of water, the middle is obsidian which leads to the top which has crystal with a tiny lightning bolt inside. Its animated at all times just so you know. Oh and I went a little overboard on this chapter, this chapter has 2,219 words...yeah I have never done that.

Baxie's POV

Percy is no longer a delinquent in the eyes of America –he is now the kidnapped child who was forced to trek across America by some biker dude, along with three other kidnapped kids. Great, now I look weak. Reporters feel so sorry for us that they collect money for our plane tickets home. And going through security was no walk on the beach, which in our case had not been easy either.

My weapon did not have a hidden form that couldn't be used as a successful weapon. And at least Annabeth had somewhere to hide her weapon. Mine was strapped to my back, which probably looked like a baseball bat that was strapped to my back. I got a lot of strange looks. We sat down to figure out a plan before we went through security.

"Look down while you talk so they can't read your lips, just don't do that all the time. We need to make sure security doesn't find our weapons. We can't take any chances." I said.

"Any ideas?" Percy asked.

"Well Annabeth and I have the only 'weapons' that people can consider useful, and since I don't want anyone to burn their hand off I say it's a good idea that we make it go through the air ducts. As long as it doesn't hit the floor or sides, they won't notice it. Trust me, this may be my first time on a plane, but I've been here before, field trip groups seem helpless to these guys." I said.

"There is absolutely no way you went on a field trip to an airport." Annabeth said.

"OK so maybe it was just me walking in to see if anyone would take pity on me and buy me food. And also me asking questions and them getting annoyed. Anyways we have to put them there through the air ducts in the bathroom, anyone have some tape?" I said.

They all looked at me like 'does it look like we have any.'

"OK we will have to use toilet paper then." I said. "There will be camera in there so we need to be careful. Annabeth you come with me and wrap the two together."

Then for the first time we realized it was a unisex bathroom, that was different. It was the literal longest wait to get to the one stall they had in there. Annabeth and I both had to go in there at the same time. I gave Annabeth my axe and the next second she dropped it, but it was still in her hand.

"Pick it up!" I mouthed.

"I can't." She mouthed back.

I picked them up out of her hands and gesture for her to wrap them. After that we were cut some slack realizing the air ducts were near the floor. After fitting them in I tried moving crystal part of the axe which worked, then I had to remember which way to turn so it would get to the bathroom on the other side of the X-ray machines.

I tried using Aphrodite's powers to change outfits, and unfortunately it worked. It was unfortunate because we look very...noticeable. With the glittery ankle boots and the shiny belts we were wearing, not mention our hair dues were extremely different. When we got out the woman looked shocked and impressed the men just stared. We didn't look like 12 year olds anymore.

Percy and Grover stared at us with many mixed expressions.

"How did you do that?" Grover asked almost laughing.

"Well I tried to make us look different since we were in the stall for about 5 minutes." I said.

"A little outfit change, that is all you had to do! Not a completely notable new outfit and completely different hair due!" Annabeth said.

"Aye, I'll try my best to not make us look more normal." I said.

The X-ray machines, they stopped all of us which made my heart stop, none of us had anything though. The machine still went crazy. And some idiot broke our cards from the Lotus Hotel. He thought it was a good idea to mix our stuff and he put his phone on our cards which had to be taken out of our pockets, and almost everyone knows when you put phones on hotel cards they malfunction. They let us pass thinking the machine was broken after they scanned us and they shut down that station. The last step was to retrieve our stuff from the air ducts. Good thing I still remember the map which had not changed and we got our stuff without being noticed, well less than we already had. When I retrieved our weapons, mine looked different.

"Well I now know something. This has an ice form." I said as I showed them the froze over axe. The fire part was encased in ice, which was already melting and the water was literally frozen, I tried to break it but it just made a puddle.

I took the window seat because everyone wants to stay away from it. The plane ride for Percy was the scariest thing. He would NOT let go of the hand rest, trust me I tried.

"If you are that scared you can hold my hand." I said to comfort him, then he did. You can imagine his grip on it. That's not even describing the pain my hand had after he let go. He did not let go the whole time, every time a woman came to ask us if we wanted something he would just stay completely still.

"Is he alright?" She would ask.

"He is just thinks we are going to crash." Grover said.

"Well I can assure you we have very experienced pilots." She said, that didn't help. When the plane landed, he finally let go. When we got out we split up, Annabeth and Grover went to camp and Percy and I went to Mount Olympus. We got in the elevator of the Empire Estate Building, which was extremely fancy. The guy in there was staring at me.

"600th floor, please." Percy said which the guy didn't pay attention to, he had to be used to seeing 12 year olds dressed like 15 year olds by now. That staring came to the point where I slapped him and repeated what Percy said. Then he looked at me strangely.

"You can't just have an audience with Zeus without a reason." He said, then Percy showed him the master bolt which made the guy jump and he frantically got us to the floor.

A cloud-walk over Manhattan would have been enough by itself. Mount Olympus was absolutely stupefying. You would think it was crumbling.

Percy almost had a heart attack when he got out of the elevator.

"Not possible." I said. I skipped across the clouds like it was a sidewalk. Percy looked at me questioning my reason and followed. We make our way up Mount Olympus which has people selling ambrosia-on-a-stick, and wood nymphs throwing olives at Percy which had a couple landed very near my mouth, which almost made me throw them back, but I realized they were trying to flirt with him so I didn't want them getting the wrong idea. We enter a massive a throne room which had twelve seats arranged in a U like the cabins at camp. Poseidon and Zeus were there arguing. Zeus wears a blue pin-striped suit and has a platinum throne. Poseidon wears a Hawaiian shirt, khaki Bermuda shorts, leather sandals, and sits on a deep-sea fisherman's throne. Percy kneels in front of his dad first, which ticks Zeus off. Poseidon tells his brother to calm down, it's only right that Percy greet his own dad first. I just stood there awkwardly, not sure if I should greet either of them.

Percy tells Zeus the whole story and everything he knows. He gives Zeus the master bolt. Percy tells them his suspicions about Kronos, but Zeus firmly closes the subject. As he says goodbye to Percy, he tells him that he will spare his life this time, but Percy should never fly his skies again. Poseidon tells Percy a little bit about Kronos, but he reminds Percy that Zeus has closed the discussion, so they cannot talk about it anymore. Poseidon reduces himself to the size of a normal man and tells Percy that his mom is alive and back home in their apartment in Queens. When Percy gets home, he will have to make an important choice. Poseidon doesn't go into the details of what this choice will be, but he simply tells Percy there will be a package waiting for him. Poseidon says that Sally Jackson is a queen among women, but that he does not wish a hero's life on Percy.

"You did well, Perseus. Do not misunderstand me. Whatever else you do, know that you are mine. You are a true son of the Sea God." He said which I truly took as an insult.

"Wait." I said with my heart pounding faster than a race driver speeding at one hundred ninety-five miles per hour. "I want to know my purpose."

"Soon." Zeus said which almost made me say 'well soon I'll die according to my dreams unless I go to the dark side!'

"Whatever the price is, I'm willing to pay it, unless it's someone's death." I said. Zeus must have thought I was insane, but he told me the price was that I would be a sort of curse to have too much energy.

"Too much energy? Why is that bad exactly. Will I be so hyperactive so one will understand me? Or will I make too much of a commotion?" I asked.

Poseidon told me I would learn to control it, but it will take a long time and once I use the burst of energy which will last 8 hours after that I'll be unconscious for an unknown amount hours, most of the time 4 hours. If I say yes to the curse it will take effect in 3 hours. If it doesn't activate within two days it will go on by default. That was a good reason to say no. But no I took it, knowing I would regret the decision! I'm so smart! Lightning struck me, which didn't make me feel any different. Poseidon then told me that my destiny was to keep a group of demigods together. I hope that piece of information will help in the future because Percy and Grover seem fine, unless it is not them.

"You are insane!" Percy said after we left. "I mean I knew you would do that but why?" Percy continued obviously baffled.

"Oh come on you have to admit it will be funny seeing me run into walls!" I said and we both laughed.

We took a cab to his apartment and Sally is at the door, she gives him a big hug. She didn't remember the Minotaur attack and what happened now, I still wonder what happened with the car. When she got back this morning, Gabe told her that Percy was a wanted criminal, and she's been worried sick all day long. Gabe told her she had to go back to work immediately so that she could make up for a month's lost rent. Percy has a maddening interaction with Gabe, who is furious at Percy and kicks him out of the house. I just stand there, restraining myself from burning his eyeballs out. Percy realizes that Gabe has hit his mom and that it has perhaps happened before, when Percy was away at boarding schools. (*whistles innocently* What I didn't add a s to school *scuffs and looks around*)

Now I had to go outside, before I made any more decisions I would regret. Percy told me the rest, they go into his room, which is overrun with Gabe's stuff, AGAIN. In his room, he finds a package – the same package he sent to Mount Olympus weeks ago. Inside, he knows is Medusa's head. He tells his mom that she doesn't have to stay with Gabe anymore. She can dump him, go back to school, write novels. He can turn Gabe to stone with one glimpse at Medusa's head. Sally refuses to let him do that to Gabe, but he leaves Medusa's head with her, 'just in case.' We take a cab to camp and we got out just in time for the curse to begin. I started twitching.

"Oh this will be fun." I said.
