Chapter 6: The Plan
Jake looked around and saw the ferocity in his troop's eyes. "Romans, attack!" Everyone charged the air was filled with war cries. This was the best part of being roman Jake thought, charging the enemy surrounded by your friends. Jake looked at the fort and noticed something new; they had more fortifications then last time, that was bad, really bad. Jake looked over and saw Percy, Frank, and Hazel running alongside him, he started running towards them.
As Jake passed them, he pulled them along. Once they had the opportunity, Jake stopped them at a small collection of trees. "Guys, we need to find a way to flank them" everyone looked confused, Frank was the first to speak. "Why? What's so different this time around?" he asked, Jake gave them the grim news. "So they have more fortifications?" Hazel asked a hint of worry in her voice. Jake nodded, "Unfortunately yes, they do" Jake looked at the soldiers in front of him. Suddenly Percy stood up, a look of determination in his eyes. "No, they will not win, we won't let them!" Jake was proud, this was his brother. A warrior, a fighter, a leader. Jake nodded "Your right Percy! Frank," he said looking at his fellow roman, "Got any ideas?" Franks face was suddenly covered by a look of pure concentration. "Hazel," he said, "Can you do that thing again?" Hazel stared daggers at him in response. "I thought that was our secret!" she said, Frank looked distraught. "I'm so sorry, Hazel!" he said, "I forgot" Hazel nodded. "It's okay, Frank" she said, "I forgive you" Jake looked at the scene before him, how could they not like each other? He thought, suddenly he pushed that thought aside. We have business to do. "Hazel, what is Frank talking about?" Hazel looked at him and Percy. "I can detect tunnels," she said, "Tunnels, trenches, stuff that has something to do with the earth, sometimes I can control them" Percy nodded, "Like when you collapsed the tunnel" Hazel nodded as well, "Yeah, like that" Frank leapt into action, "Guys, let's go!"
With the help of Hazel, they reached the wall. "So they have foundations down to bedrock?" Jake asked Hazel nodded. "All the way down" she said sadly, suddenly Frank took notice of something and alerted the group. "Guys, the water cannons are under huge amounts of pressure right?" Frank asked, Percy nodded, and realization dawned on Jake. "Frank, you're crazy," Jake said, Frank smiled in response. "Maybe," he looked at everyone, "Okay guy's, here's the plan. Percy, you'll use you're powers to make the cannons explode, I'll use my hydra arrow to make us a way to the top," he looked at Jake. "From there Jake will take over, climbing over the wall," Jake shook his head, "No way Frank, this is your plan, you take the lead," Jake smiled, Frank returned it, "Fine, I'll lead, everyone got that?" Everyone nodded, "Okay, let's go!"
