Well, that was quite the interesting bout and I would go into details about the fights to see who got Nick in their legion, but that was boring, Bobby won, so Legion Two got Nick as well. We now had three Big three kids in our Legion. While I over saw the first legion I left the second in Percy and Nick's capable hands. Though for the war games it was every legion for themselves. The object was to capture the others emblems. Percy would be leading the defense while Nick and I went in, in two separate offensive strikes.
I was seriously going to enjoy this, my team got their emblem and I was watching our retreat, summoning up waters from the Tiber to sweep the chasers away. While doing this I see Nick leaping from tree branch to tree branch, the other teams emblem clenched in his hand. The archers were doing their damnedest to shoot him, but he always moved before the arrows could reach their mark. This was frustrating the enemy archers because not even Mercury kids could move that fast. I'd caught something along my bond with Percy about Nick being part Storm Dragon, so that was where the extra stuff came from.
Just then as I sweep another wave of chasers back ten Mars campers ambush Nick, trying to take back the emblem. Nick swears and looks at me. I grin and ride a geyser into the air and turn it into a tsunami, keeping my enemies at bay and I send a burst of water at the Mars campers, scattering them. Nick takes advantage of the opening and rushes back to base camp. I jump off of my tsunami and keep it in place while heading back to base camp, watching Nick's back all the while. The Mars campers give me dirty looks at they try to get past me. I summon a hurricane as I battle them back.
Bobby flanks them from behind and between the two of us we defeat them and continue on to our base camp. Just then I hear a triumphant shout and I curse, racing ahead and tackling the Venus camper who had thought he could take our emblem, Percy was on him in a flash as well, ordering the others to hold the line and defend our trophies. Nick swung in from out of nowhere as he helped us hold the Venus camper in position. Haley leapt through us all and reclaimed our emblem, racing back behind our lines, Amy backing her up. I smirk at this, " I do believe this means that Legion Two claims victory over the other two legions. "
" I believe you're correct, sis. Thanks to our quick reaction times and Haley we have our emblem back and the emblems of the other two legions, all in all, I'd say this has been an exceptionally good war game for us. " Percy says.
" When can we do this again? " Nick asks eagerly.
" For now we hit the showers and then the sack, we'll need a lot of sleep for the training I have in mind for tomorrow. " I state slyly.
Legion One hears this and groans as a collective unit. They hated it when I came up with new training regiments. Though this one would put Nick through his paces as everyone had to try and catch him by using tracking and survival skills alone. They were all gonna hate me for this, no powers, except to make food and drink safe for consumption. It would be a good exercise for us all.
As I head off to bed I sigh as I realize that the peaceful time would end soon. It invariably did with a quest, that was a given and I had a feeling Percy, Nick, and I were going to be the ones to go on this quest. Feelings like this normally came true, especially since I could feel a shift in the flow of fate and destiny. A lot of people hated those words, I did especially because those Moirae continually tried to kill me off, only to have me somehow shift the tide of destiny in my favor. They were getting very frustrated with my continued existence.
It wasn't often someone like me came along and could alter the flow of events around them, and a being like me always pissed off the Fates because they couldn't counteract me. They never knew exactly how I was going to shift things and therefore could not make the proper counter strikes. Not even I knew how I was able to do this, I just know that I can. Ever since I came here I've noticed it, but it really helped when we marched on Mt. Tam. Without my ability to shift the flow of events then Jason would have lost and that couldn't happen. At the same time I realized that I had also helped Percy make his critical decision as well.
Had Kronos known of me he would have killed me or tried to convert me to his side, which never would have happened. I would never help Kronos take down the Gods, just like I wouldn't allow that bitch Gaea to win without one hell of a fight. She may control the Earth but I could shake her apart and I could just stay on the water, out of her jurisdiction. Her and her damn giants would not win this battle. Now, if only Zeus/Jupiter would get his head out of his ass and realize that Gods and demi-gods had to work together to slay the giants. It just had to be done, he was still pissed that Percy had turned down immortality and that the demi-gods had done what they couldn't do, stop the Titans and save the world.
People thought Hollywood Starlets had huge egos, theirs are nothing in comparison to the Sky God's. I honestly don't know how Hera tolerates him and his cheating ways. If I were her I'd kick his cheating ass to the curb and be done with it. Of course, she couldn't, being the goddess of marriage, which had to absolutely suck for her. Still, she had no right to persecute Hercules the way she had.
