Thanks to all those who reviewed my story. Since my Christmas Holidays are ending quick, I might not be able to update regularly anymore so without further ado! (I don't own PJO and HoO cast. Rick Riordan does) Cheers :) This will be short... very short
I have no idea how I got into my bed, and I only had vague memory yesterday.
I was eating my food, watching the campers. They had smiles on their faces. Mostly, they were talking and a few thanked me. A blonde sat next to me. We were just watching the campers with comfortable silence. She stood up and beckoned me to follow her. I stood up slowly and followed her outside. I followed her to the beach where we usually made out. She was just sitting there. I walked up to her, walking slowly, trying not to make a sound. I sat down next to her, not caring if I made a sound anymore. I just sat there watching the waves roll off the beach. She put her head on my shoulder and sighed.
"It's nice to have you back, Seaweed Brain."
"It's good to be back, Wise Girl." She looked up at me with those stormy grey eyes.
"Are you going to leave soon?" she asked. I looked at her uncomfortably.
"You know I have to, Wise Girl….."I said.
"Then let's make the best of these moments." Then she kissed me. We stayed out there for who knows how long. After a few minutes of talking I heard her snore softly. I sighed and continued watching the seas. I felt my eyelids drop and before I knew it I fell asleep.
Which led me back here. How in Hades did I get over here? I stood up and stretched. It felt really good to stretch. I walked out of my room and went to the cafeteria in the ship. I took my food and ate it in silence. It was 0800 hours already. I finished my meal quickly and ran to the armory. I quickly strapped on my suit and ran off to find the others. Turns out, I didn't have to. I checked my online Spartans roster, and found that all my Spartans were already waiting for me in the briefing room. They were discussing so seriously that they didn't notice me standing here. I coughed. They quickly snapped to attention. I walked in and looked over at them. These might be the last mission I do with them. They have made Chaos proud. They also made me proud.
"Alright. I guess, you know about this mission. I've already split you into two teams. First team will be to help Lord Hades with his little problem. Second team will be going across America, scouring the area for enemy encampments. I want to say is that this might be our last mission together. Now I want you to know that I am very proud of you. Chaos is proud of you. Remember, No retreat, No surrender!" and I earned satisfied shouts.
"What are you waiting for, Spartans! Suit up, Spartans, we move out in ten. Thalia, once you finish, tell Jason to ready the campers." I quickly left to go find Chiron. After a while I found Chiron.
"Excuse me, Chiron, sir, can you please find the centaurs? We might need them for extra firepower against the enemy. They also might provide a suitable defense for Mount Olympus." I asked.
"Ah, Percy, I might be able to find them. How long do we have until they might attack?"
"Around three to five days later. I need you to find them within three days. Can you?"
"I'll have it done within a day." He said and galloped off the boundary. As I walked back to the ship, Spartans were walking to camp. I noticed that they were very tense, as if they were expecting monsters to appear. When I got to the ship, marines were running around carrying heavy crates around. I was wondering if it was the new rifles I ordered. I walked up to one of the crates and inspected the items inside. There were dozens of rifles, neatly placed on top of each other. It looked like shotgun with a chainsaw under the barrel. The magazine was short, but the bullets were like machinegun bullets, each filled with Chaos metal. Each clip could hold around twenty-five bullets each. I walked up to one of the marines.
"Hey, trooper. What's the firing rate on this rifle?" I asked.
"It's around five bullets per second, sir." The marine replied.
"Thank you, trooper. Now get back to your duty." I said. He just saluted, which I saluted back, and ran off to find his commanding officer. I took six of the rifles and a week's worth of ammo. I carried them to the briefing room, where the special team would be waiting. When I entered the room they quickly came up to me and took my burden off. I took one look at the Spartans and knew they were ready for whatever there was to come. Nishant was loading his rifle, his dual blades attached to his suit. John with a pistol on his belt and rifle slung on his shoulder. Mike with the rifle in one hand and the other his sword. Nico with his sword in his hand and rifle attached to the back. Joshua with his sword on his belt and rifle in hand. I beckoned them to follow me and get Zeta company. Zeta company has around forty troopers. There were thirty marines and ten Lighters. Lighters were essentially flame throwers. I led them to Zeta company.
"Lt Elijah, come in, over." I spoke to my radio.
"This is Lt Elijah, Commander Percy, sir." A voice said in my earpiece.
"Lt, are the men ready?" I asked.
"Ready and waiting, sir."
"Good. Get them outside now. We will be waiting outside the ship."
"It will be done, sir."
I clicked my comm off and marched straight outside. We waited for a few minutes before a great host of troopers came to greet us. The trooper in the lead saluted before me. I saluted back.
"Alright, El-tee, I think you have already briefed you men. If you have we should move out at once." He just nodded and we left. Well, now we're off to the Underworld. Oh the joy!
