Chapter 3: New Camp and More?
Selust POV:
It`s been six months when that fucking, ass likin` kid came and us being granted help, plus he getting off lovely Artemis`s good side while I get an off limits from Lord Zeus! Now, we are sittin` in the throne room, bored to death until always beautiful Aphrodite, who was done making out with her husband; Hephaestus, stood. "Hey! I got an idea!" she exclaimed in the throne room. "What now?" asked Apollo; Artemis`s twin brother, bored. "Why don't we learn more about Captain France?" she asked.
Agh! That name burned inside me. I wish that I could just kill that kid. I mean, it`s impossible to beat me and Ares at the same time! We could have just killed him and I could have shown Artemis how great of a warrior I can be. I thought angrily. "You wish." Said Apollo in my mind, mockingly. I gave him an irritated smile trying to keep my good side so I don't look like the bad guy in front of her (Artemis).
I slumped back to my throne looking bored to death after the others agreed to what Aphrodite said. I could still feel the pain in my back, after being under the spell Hecate cast me and the torture Artemis and her purely; virgin girls did to me as I winced. I turned my awesomely looking head towards the projector and white screen- almost the size of the front of the throne room -which Hephaestus was setting up.
And I almost forgot that ugly-old looking Hephaestus was now a hottie, which was what his wife calls him. Note that I'm being angrily sarcastic! For their information, I look thousand times better than him! "Keep wishing. He beats Ares by the physical features and Apollo by the looks!" said no other than Aphrodite in my mind. Then Apollo looked at her hurt but was still smiling as if it was some kind of joke.
Now, he was done setting it up, Aphrodite told us to sit in rows. And I am sandwiched between Ares who was giving me a death glare after he lost his girlfriend. Not my fault! And Apollo and Hermes, like they were guarding Artemis from me. What the heck am I suppose to do to her? Oh yeah… I'm the god of nudity and lust, etc, etc… Damn!
Then the movie or a video of some sort to knowing our new ally`s personalities and past better. Aphrodite sited herself next to her husband in the front row with the big three, Athena and Ares who was on the other side of Hephaestus and then Apollo leaned from behind her and whispered. "What are we watching?" he asked trying to be more silent. "I picked up this one in his mission list in the internet a few years back and asked the fates if they could let me go back and do some filming so it looks better." She said whispering too.
Then Hermes leaned next to them. "What is the mission called?" he asked whispering. "It`s called CLIFFHANGER. Now sit back and be quite!" she said before turning her head to the screen.
Cliffhanger:
"Break`s over, mate." Said a sixteen years old Captain France as he threw his smoking cigar in the edge of the mountain. He was dressed in snow camouflage with a pair of ice hook with leashes, black and white military hat, technical crampons in front of the boots, climbing harness, a small iPod in the top of his wrist that shows sonar readings, an m40e5 rifle fitted with an IRNV settings if needed to turn to thermal imaging, and last but not the least, an m4a1 fitted with acog scope, laser pointer, snow camo, and grip/tripod. In case of being compromised.
Max, the fourteen year old teen dressed with the same clothes as his captain was next to him rubbed his temples as his whole body smoked, trying to keep himself warm. "Finally… I was freezing to death here." He said breathless. "You're not the only one." agreed Capt. France. Both of them stood up and walked sideways in the side of the mountain. Then France turned to the ice and pulled his ice hammer and smashed it towards the hard ice.
"A-ight. The ice is good. I`ll go first and follow. Then we`ll regroup with the others in alpha starting point Romeo." He ordered. "Just move already." Said an irritated Max. "Keep your temper." Warned France while chuckling before climbing up.
Both of them would have been crushed eggs if it wasn't for an idiotic enemy pilot flying at low altitude and sending some ice down towards them. They were now a cliff away from their starting point when they saw a large ice cliff blocking their way. France turned to him and said. "See ya in the other side, kid." He said before running and jumping to the other side. "Alright, Max. You can do this. You can do this, man!" he said to himself as he ran full speed jumping towards the cliff.
He slammed in the ice with his hooks digging deep yet his still going down. "Shit! Shit! Shit! I'm going down, Capt.!" exclaimed Max. "Hold on! I`m gonna get ya!" he called. "The fuck, you think am doing?!" He called back. "Just don't fucking fall!" France called. Max lost his grip and yelled at the top of his lungs and France slid down quickly and grabbed his hand. "Gotcha!" he sighed. Max sighed in relief of not getting killed at the earliest part of the mission. France nodded his head up telling him his gonna throw him back up.
They climbed up safely this time and Max looked a little shaken. "You know, for a kid of Vulcan, you got the guts to climb high velocities and altitudes." Complimented France. "I'll do whatever it takes to finish this damn war." Said Max with a glare.
"Good. Now stop smoking. We need to be hidden in this one so please, please don't use that damn shotgun of yours." He pleaded. "He-he. This shotgun can rip any tangos 10 feet away, that gets near." He said as he pulled his shotgun from a bag then he pulled an ACR 6.8 fitted with red dot sight, suppressor, snow camo, heart beat sensor, and grenade launcher.
France looked at him with half-closed eyes. "What?" Max asked. "Really? A grenade launcher?" France asked. "Just like your m4, but this pack a lot of punch when collided with nitrogen and methane substances." Max said. "Whatever. C`Mon we need to go." Said France as he climbed a waist high ice and Max followed.
"Alright. Max, open your heartbeat sensor. That blue dot is the friendly. The white dot… your free to do whatever you want." He said with a smile. Max smiled evilly thinking how much pain he can inflict to them. They walked in a crouch position to give them more cover then they spotted two enemy soldiers marching away. "This Muppets don't know we`re here. Let's take it nice and slow." He said as they stopped. "You take the one in the left. On three…
Three…
Two…
One…
What the fuck!" He hissed under his breath cause two other soldiers in snow ghillie suits jumped up and stabbed them in the neck with close-quarter-combat knives. The two fists pumped each other and took of their suits, revealing two more friendlies. "Good kill Campo and Mactovic." Said France as they walked up to them.
Campo, the one in the left with his silenced aka74m fitted with IRNV scope, snow camo, laser pointer and flashlight. "Ya, well at least it hits the spot." He said as he strapped his m14ebr behind him. Then Mactovic, the one in the right, pulled his m16a3 fitted with hybrid scope, silencer, heartbeat sensor, and laser pointer. "What is it with the laser pointer?" he asked while strapping his ump 45 in his side. "To confuse idiots who to shoot and blind them." Said Max. "Kay." He said.
"Where`s the others? They should have been here by now?" France asked. "They said we`ll meet up in starting point BRAVO at 1300 hours." Said Campo as he looked at his watch. "That's about ten minutes away." He finished. "Then we better start moving." Said France as they all moved in crouch. They saw another two, and then the two were shot in the head with silenced weapons. "Ghost or Chaffin?" asked Max.
"Neither." Said the first man who jumped down the small hill. "Damn, Maximus. Forgot us already?" asked the man who was taking his ghillie suit of. "My name is not Maximus, Martinez. I. Am. Maxima!" he hissed. "Oh yeah, forgot. Maximus was the asshole brother of yours that tried to kill you and became king, but you came back and killed him?" said Martinez. "Yeah, that`s what he did." Said another man sliding down the hill. "Chaffin here is a good marksman, but slow." Said Martinez. "As if you could go faster." Insulted Chaffin. "C'mon. No one will fight until this mission ends. Am I understood?" asked France threateningly. "Hoo-ya!" they all chorused.
They all walked quietly inside a freezing Russian base in the mountains of Kazakhstan and met up with the seven of the team. All wearing same clothes with the same badge and same silenced weapons. All of them were inside a building with two dead soldiers lying on the floor while the rest were cleaning their weapons for close combat.
The man who was cleaning his weapon stood up and shook hands with France and the others. "What took ya`ll so long?" He asked as he placed his skull mask back. "Took a detour and lost four precious kills." Complained France. "Well… if you and Max were fast enough, you wouldn't have lost the kill." Said the man as he pointed his head towards the four boys who was smiling idiotically. "Dude, d-do y-yo-you h-ha-have a-an-any w-wa-warm –p-pl-pla-ce?" asked Max who was rubbing his hand. "Right at the side." He said pointing at a fire place.
"So, what`s the plan, Capt.?" he asked. "We could always go the fast and exciting way, but it's gonna be even better if we all go nice and slow. What ya think, ghost?" Asked France with a grin. "Well, you know what they say: your words are the law and order. We better get packin." Said ghost as he told the rest of the boys who are doing some more adjustments in their weapons.
They all walked quietly breaking into two groups; Alpha and Omega. The alpha group who was under Cpt. France: sniper and assault, Chaffin: assault and demo, Max: assault and interrogator, Dante: marksman and stealth expert, Mason: support and engineer, and Campo: medic and Intel specialist went east where the facilities were.
The omega group who was under Lieutenant Ghost: assault, Mactovic: support and demo, Martinez: close-quarter-combat specialist and assault, Archer: sniper, Ramirez: tech expert, Gaz: support and assault, and last but not the least… Yuri: submachine gunner and pilot, headed west where the oil storages were and their aircrafts and other kind of vehicles.
The alpha group entered a facility silently and spotted almost every hostile guarding the scientist from leaving the war-heads they were working on un-checked. "Chaffin, Max. Go west and north; clear all the Intel we can gather. Dantes, Mason and Campo… Go east and clear any Intel then report back here. But be silent!" France hissed as all six of them broke to an even smaller number and went to different direction.
France went to the control room and opened the door pulling his m1911 silenced pistol at the process. There were two Russians sitting in the table. One was sleeping and the other was bored at his thoughts. Then there was also a scientist inside working in his own world and was busy and didn't even bothered about him. He walked quietly behind a table and listened intently on his enemies' conversation.
"Что мы даже заплатил?" said the bored out of his thoughts guy. "Потому что ... мы лучшие из лучших, не нравился!" said the soldier who was rocking his chair appearing like his asleep then they both gave each other a heartedly chuckle. France kept down but when the scientist turned… he was spotted and the two Russians acted quickly but were both shot in the head while the scientist tried to pull the gun that was placed in his work table but was also shot in the head.
He walked to the table and started tapping in –in the computer and downloading files in his usb. He holds his radio and says "This is hunter 2-1. I repeat, this is hunter 2-1. Information is secured. I repeat. Information is secured." Then there was another voice saying they secured the Intel and was waiting for further orders, until it went to the last members.
He exited the room but was stopped when he was surrounded by four Russians with ak47`s grenades and German shepherds. "Dogs?" asked Chaffin. "I hate dogs." He finishes. "Don't worry. These dogs are like pussycats compared to the ones in Prypyat." Said Ghost in the radio. "Good to have you back, old man." Said Chaffin with everyone agreeing. "It`s good to be back." ghost agrees. "Hello, I'm about to be holed here while you`re all catching up?" France hissed in the radio with his hands up.
"This is major Pretrov! Put down your weapons and surrender. Fight back… then we`ll be forced to open fire. Surrender, you shall be spared and not be harmed." He said in his microphone. "What did this guy think? I'm deaf or something?" France thought.
"Boys… go to plan B, now." He said quietly. Then there was a huge explosion a few rooms away from them and most of them were startled then he pulled his pistol so fast that they didn't even have enough time to pull their own weapons out. Four Russians fell to the floor with holes in their heads and he quickly ran placing his pistol back to the holster and pulling his m4a1 out and placing his sniper rifle behind him.
He reached the front door and turned back seeing his boys' running back to him firing behind them. Max ran so fast that he slammed right into the front door breaking it in process. They all ran laughing at Max`s antics and stopped in a pile of sandbags and started giving suppressive fire to Omega who were all running towards them in the front.
Everyone in the Omega group lipped above the sandbags and Ghost went face to face with France. "What`s the plan, Capt.?" He asked. France looked around and spotted two parked T90As and he turned back to Ghost with a daring smile. Ghost looked where he gazed and saw the tanks and smiled evilly with him.
"Guys! See those tanks?" said Ghost pointing at the two tanks. Everyone faced where his pointing and looked at him curiously. "Yeah, so?" asked Chaffin. "Well, that's our ticket out of here and we better get going if we want get this babies back." said France showing them the usb. All of them slowly gained mischievous smiles and ran at the tank and started messing with the controls.
"This is all in Russian!" Mason exclaimed. "If you stayed awake in our classes, you would`ve known how to get this things going." Said Chaffin irritated. Chaffin took over while Mason took over the main gun in which the controls look the same to a normal tank with English translation in it. "Decir adiós perras!" Exclaimed Mason in the tank- where the alpha group was -as he fired the 2A46M 125MM smoothbore tank gun. The tank shook violently but ceased and Campo reloaded almost instantly.
The shell that was fired went straight to a truck that was carrying 20 soldiers at least and shredded it to pieces killing all the passengers. "Imma get one o` this!" Mason said. "Chaffin, hit the gas!" Exclaimed France as he mounted the PKT 7.62mm coaxial machinegun. The tank engine burst to full power as the tank moved and then Omega group's tank followed close by.
Max and Dantes were inside hacking the files and modules. "Bollocks! This is getting nowhere!" exclaimed Chaffin as he drove. "Turn left now! Mason, rotate main gun 45 degrees left, levitates 40 degrees up!" said France. Mason did what he was told and spotted he was aiming at a Mil Mi- 24 helicopter. He smiled dangerously evil and said. "Down you go!" He said firing the main hitting the heli at the hull and it dived down and smashed right at the snow exploding, sending shrapnel's everywhere.
"That's one hell of a shot!" complimented France as he watched as the scene. "Thanks Capt. A really good eye sight really helps on spying prey." Mason said. "Maybe that's why your keep on getting in trouble with Nelly." Said Max chuckling. "Maybe." Said Mason before everyone burst out laughing inside the tank.
The two tanks drove another fifty mile before stopping in front of a cliff. "What the F? How many cliffs are in here?!" Exclaimed Mactovic as he exited the Omega tank. Yuri drove the tank and parked it sideways while Chaffin followed. Martinez and Ramirez pointed the main guns towards the west where they could see four Mil Mi 24s, BTR 90s, and a few armored trucks. France ordered Dantes and Gaz to man the machine guns while the rest positioned themselves behind the tanks waiting for the enemies to get in line of fire.
The vehicles were fifty feet and have just entered the line of fire then France gave the signal. "Chopper at three o`clock!" He exclaimed. Martinez from Omega group fired a never missing shot at the chopper as the 125mm round detonated in impact. "Open fire!" Exclaimed France as they all fired every last weapons they have while Dantes and Gaz manned the PKT 7.62mm coaxial machinegun. The Russians got out of their vehicles and exchanged fire with them.
"This is Lieutenant Ghost. Where the heck is that chopper?" He cried at the radio. "This is hunter 2-2. Evict helicopter is on its way. E.T.A.3minutes. Hang on tight." Said France`s twin brother. "Cap! Three minutes!" Ghost exclaimed as he went back to shooting. Archer was taking out tangos with his m14ebr while Mactovic climbed up the tank and mounted himself in the machine gun as Gaz got out and said. "Say hello to this baby!" He said firing the gun.
A GAZ-2975 drove towards them and Max and Gaz focused their fire on it. "We need something more powerful!" Gaz exclaimed. "Is this powerful enough?" Max asked as he handed him an AT4 launcher. "Whoa! Damn, it`s beautiful." He said as he took aim at the coming armored vehicle. The At4 rocket launcher beeped and he fired the guided missile and it contracted behind the vehicle sending it to trample off cliff.
They heard two helicopter blades vibrating in the air as if it was some massaging machine. Two UH-144 Falcons came to vision as they passed a cliff. Both had two propellers rotating at maximum speed, mounted heavy machine guns in front, olive green color, 11.4 meter long and two powerful engines giving it the advantage of being faster than a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk.
Both the choppers took a steep inward dive and started holing all the enemies that stands in their comrades' way. "Yeah!" Exclaimed Martinez as he got out of the tank waiving his hand. "I should have been in the air force!" Whined Max as he watched awe as the Falcons shred the Russians to pieces. Everyone inside the tanks got out and waited for the Falcons to pick them up.
"Go, go, go!" France exclaimed as the boys ran towards the choppers while he turned back and took a long glance of the battlefield. "Some things never change." He muttered to himself. The choppers were ready to leave and were just waiting for him until they heard a loud boom. A large tank bullet went straight towards France. He gave a "whoa" as he dodged it taking a slow motion look at the shell. It was copper with painted red tip that marked it was highly explosive. It was about to hit the chopper but the gunner detonated it in mid air by shooting it with the mounted m134 Vulcan minigun.
Then out of the burning rubble of twisted metal and bodies, came a rushing T90A tank, but this time, it was Russians who were using it. The gunner started shooting him and he quickly ran towards the chopper that was hovering a good ten meters away from the cliff. The tank`s main gun was fired and he jumped towards the chopper but he started falling towards his high death until his hand was caught by Max who was clanging on a rope.
"Gotcha, Capt.!" Max exclaimed holding his captain, in which he might or might not fall over 200 feet towards a very hard rock that always waits for anyone unlucky enough to fall. France gave a heartily chuckle and Max stared at him as if he was crazy. "What`s funny? You crazy or what?" He asked. "Neither, kid. Must be a change of luck?" France said gesturing his position as he could fall any second in the base of the mountain. Then the choppers hovered in maximum speed back to base.
End of movie:
After the stupid movie was done, Lord Zeus clapped his hands and all the thrones were back in their rightful place. "That`s strange… the last roman child I had was a girl. And the rest before her were all Greeks." Hephaestus commented. "Maybe his older?" Hestia suggested. "Yeah… maybe." Ol` Hephaestus agreed. Then Ares spoke, or casually, he grumbled. "Meh, it doesn't mean that he got lucky in our first match that he could be better. His still a kid and a baby to me, not even a good reason for my time." He mocked.
I can`t help but smile as Ares was still on my side of killing the small bastard. I couldn't even help but think that if he brought at least 20 to 30 men with him, I don't think the word 'battalion' fits for a small group of idiotic boys who has an idiot for a captain. I think, the right word for them is 'a joke' cause they don't fit with us. I mean, sure he has one roman demigod, but how can he or they, defeat over two thousand Roman and Greek demigods?
"Well, now that we know how they really work, why don't we call them?" asked Lord Zeus. Everyone nodded in agreement and he pulled his blackberry curve and pressed the number. There was a brief ringing then a voice came on.
"He-lo?" As a strong and familiar voice answered.
"Hello, this is Lord Zeus of etc, etc, blah, blah… what time are you arriving?" He asked.
"Ahh let`s see… two hours and a half. I suggest you get all your children better be prepared, because all of you are up for the largest surprise ever known in history of surprises." The voice in the phone said.
"Alright, where should we wait for your arrival?" Lord Zeus asked.
"In your camp, I heard it was filled with every children you all have." The speaker chuckled.
"Do you know where it is?" asked Lord Zeus.
"Yeah, don't worry. We`ll be there. Se y`all with large opened mouthed faces. Bye. Oh yeah, wait 100 meters in front of the beach" He said still chortling before he disconnected.
"Well, we better get going." Said Lord Zeus as he and Lady Hera disappeared. Then all the other gods and goddesses disappeared in golden flashes. I flashed out somewhere I always enjoy my free time.
2 hours later:
We were all waiting a hundred meters away from the beach all in Greek and Roman battle armor until we felt the sand vibrated beneath us. We all turned to Poseidon but he just shrugged saying it`s not him. Then we turned our heads back at the beach impatiently only to be met by, I might like to add –a lot- a hundred or so tanks fitted with separate dual barrel, 13 ft. tall, 33 ft. long, four independent tank tracks, two heavy machine guns in top, large body for maybe carrying many troops and gray-ish olive color.
The tanks were in a five per row formation and all guns pointed skywards. "This is it? For all this six months, he sends us this?! What about the air, what about the sea? No navy, air force? Arghhhh!" Athena shrieked. "Athena, please be patient. And please keep your voice down." Asked Poseidon saying the word please as if it was the most disgusting word ever created. For us gods, it is.
I would have laughed but the first five tanks in front of us suddenly lowered their guns above our heads ten meters away from us. And the Ares children were already looking lusty at the tanks while the Hephaestus children are gawking at way how the materials were made in such fantastic way that even they would take very long time to make at least a single one of those tanks. Then, there`s the children of Athena who is so in loved on how its great the way the tank must have been printed from the blueprint.
It`s only been five minutes after the tanks arrived, until we heard a muscle car engines, I think? Hey, I'm not Hephaestus who knows these things by just listening! Then out of nowhere, well mostly from the entrance but who cares, three vehicles drove in front of us.
The first one was a midnight black ZL1 Camaro SS with two large blood-glossy-red strip in the middle with two m134 miniguns in the right side and spikes in the middle of the wheels.
Then the second was a 2013 DODGE RAM armed with 4 hood mounted browning m1919, 2 side-mounted Vulcan cannons and Russian RPG-7`s in the roof, plus an m134 minigun at the trunk mounted by a soldier wearing black camouflaged suits, black tactical marine bullet proof vest with tactical knife attached. It was colored in pitch black and had a phrase painted red in its back saying, "The Pack".
The third was a bit intimidating; it was a glossy black Conquest knight vx hummer. It was fitted with a large and very deadly ramp that would throw any vehicles it rams through in front of the whole vehicle. Then, there was a dual m134 miniguns at the roof, with another person wearing the same uniform as the former. Then in the hood, was two m134`s in both sides giving it the shredding power against all odds.
To me and my children, it was badass and intimidating at the same time if only it wasn't him! He stepped out wearing the same black uniform and from waist to down, he had an m1911 strapped in his right leg, go figure! Then, as usual, clean black army boots. He was wearing a sniper cap with a cigar attached to his left ear. Black, glossy, midnight shades attached in his putrid face and a playful smirk plastered in his fucking, ass-of-a-face. Then the next was twelve boys at the age of 18 to 20 years old stepped out from the other two vehicles.
After what he did to me and Ares, both our cabins already want to rip him apart, in which I `am so glad. But now seeing them, I think they (we) almost wet themselves at the sight of all their weapons in front of us. The he strolled towards us taking his shades and cap in process and offered his hand for a friendly handshake. Everyone knows that I am not shaking that hand for a billion years.
Every minor gods and goddesses until to the major (that`s us by the way) gods and goddesses shook his hand except me and Ares who gave him a threatening glare in which he only returned with an evil smile. I gulped and lost my glare, while Ares' glare grew harder. Some minor goddesses fainted after shaking his hand and gave a dreamy coo.
I saw most of the Aphrodite girls bugging their eyes out just to touch him with the Ares cabin cracking their knuckles. I turned my attention back to him and said. "So…" giving a dramatic pause. "This is your so-called mighty army, huh? You seem to be a little smaller than I thought." I said mocking him. "My army?" he asked. Infidel fool! "Yes, your army." I said pushing him a little bit more.
"Oh, you mean this army." He said giving the whole Camp Olympus a better view of the hundred or so, I think, tanks. "Not to be rude, but where are your air force and navy? Isn't an army big enough to conquer a country needs both control over air and water?" Asked none other than the girlfriend of the hero of Olympus Percy Jackson: Annabeth Chase.
"We have. Let me just get them" He said with a smile to her as one of his boys threw a radio at him and caught it from behind without even looking. "Overlord, this is Hunter 2-1. I repeat this is Hunter 2-1. Could you please shut that damn cloaking shield off?" He said and I saw Athena and the big three raise an eyebrow. "Roger that Hunter 2-1. Cloaking shield de-activating." Said a man in the radio.
Then there were a lot of campers gasping. In front of us, the sky started glitch-ing, as if it was some kind of computer containing virus, then the image came to focus after six, 5 kilometers long spaceship, hundreds of thousands of aircrafts flying above us you name it and 2 aircraft carries and 13 destroyers and 5 extremely large battleships in the sea a hundred yards away.
The six hovering spaceships had a triangular shape, four gigantic engines, and sixty meter high command Bridge, ten meter diameter hatches in the side (side weapons maybe?), four enormous armor piercing cannons in the middle, and another four more cannons in each side and a large twenty meter diameter hatch under the whole ship, where a few more aircrafts are coming out.
( /img/explore/encyclopedia/technology/republiccruiser_ )
The two aircraft carriers, well, they look similar to normal carriers but has hundreds more aircrafts. The thirteen destroyers weren't different too, but the battleships were different and beyond comprehension on how to even dent it. All five of them has four elevated main guns/batteries, three in front and one behind, almost hundreds of anti-aircraft guns (counted it with godly speed), ballistic missile launchers, two large anchors, numbers 101, 102, 103, 104, 105 printed in their hulls.
"That`s a little bit of a badass army he has!" I thought terrified.
"Don't be frightened by his inventory!" Ares told me telepathically.
"Tell that to yourself! You sound more scared than I am." I fired back.
"Forget it. You're wasting my time on just talking to you! Now I see why you don't fit to be Artemis`s husband. You're too pathetic!" He told me.
"I. Am. Not!" I retorted angrily.
"Then prove it!" He challenges me.
"Fine, I will!" I said back before disconnecting with him.
Everyone had their minds blown, (including me and Ares) jaws dropped in the floor staring at his army. I mean, Apollo literary dropped his jaws in the floor, followed by his tongue rolling out and his eyes exploding out of their sockets. France gave an amused laughed and said. "I told you will have your all up for a surprise." He said while his boys gave short laughs.
One of his boys who had Italian features, chocolate brown eyes, and military like, muscular built, and a serious face, walked towards Hephaestus and held his hand out? Then he said the thing that shocked us gods and goddesses the most. "Hello father." He said waiting for him to take it. So this is the Vulcan child he has.
Then Hephaestus took it then changed in his roman form; Vulcan. "Hello son. It`s been long when we last met. You`ve grown taller, stronger and best of all… better lookin`, just like your old man, eh?" he said letting go of his son`s hand. "Yes, I had father. It has been long. We`ve been busy... though." The boy said smiling.
France smiled at them and then turned to all of us as the boy started walking back to his group. Then a helicopter, like the one in the movie we just watched, landed in front of us, next to him, and another man wearing a commander`s uniform stepped out with a soldier in the same uniform before and stood beside France. Then, all of the tanks opened their hatches and a man wearing the same commander uniform went out and stood in his right, then another and another, until there`s six of them.
"Meet… the 13th!" France exclaimed open arms. "For any of you thinking how can simple mortals can built this advance weaponry? Well, every last one of this boys and girls that is under our control… are the children of the Primordials!" He said. Again, more gasp. Then Athena walked forwards after recovering from her shock. "All of you are children of the primordial gods?" she asked. "Yes, all of us are. We usually call our camp, 'Camp Primordial'. The name 13th only comes when there`s a war to fight." France said.
This can't be real. Primordials having children with mortals? But if is? How and where did they have the materials on building all their transports? That is when I marched forwards ignoring the stare I'm receiving. "Then would you mind telling us where did you get all the materials need on building all this?" I asked pointing at their weapons. "We got them in Chaotica." He said. What? "Excuse me? Where and what is that suppose to be?!" I said raising my voice. "It's the planet of the primordial gods and goddesses and etc, etc. It is located in the middle of the milky way galaxies" He said, not really caring.
"Oh" was all I said. Stupid! "Anyways… I would like y`all to meet my baby brothers." He joked. "Shut up, old man." Grumbled one of his brothers. "Whatever. Anyways, this is Alexander. Also known as Alpha. He control`s the air and stuff that is in the air." An early twenties man, light tan skin, black-ish brown army cut hair, black glossy shades hanging in his collar, army commander uniform, a bit of British traits on him and flaming red ignition eyes.
"Then here`s Boaz. Also known as Bravo. He is the tank platoon commander." Muscular guy, 6`4 maybe, wearing long sleeves folded below the elbow, a drawing of flames in his left hand and a badge of a tank facing sideways with a large skull in the background in his right, dirty blond hair, empty black eyes (creepy), menacing smile (even creepier!), small scar in the left-side of his lips, army cap, messy, not very long hair, and tan skin tone.
"Here is Cesar. Also known as Charlie. Juggernaut or heavy troopers." Heavily armored dude. Not much to describe, just the fitting (disturbing) helmet, with a large crack in the left-side, skull decal in the right shoulder armor that extends around the him covering mostly his neck and shoulders, bullet holes in his large armor attached in his arms, bulky armor, an m240B light machine gun in his right hand (duh) facing the ground, an extremely huge knife in his left and silver desert eagle strapped in his right leg. (Mw3 juggernaut)
"Then, here standing and introducing my younger brothers is me, France. Also known as Delta and Nebula. Standing chief-commander of the hunters or formally known as 'The Pack'" I saw all of them stiffen at the name Nebula. Time to have a closer look… piercing titanium silver eyes, medium size scar running from the top left of his eyebrow till his chin, muscular figure, black marine uniform, his familiar two samurai swords, m1911 in his right leg, black hair tinted with a hint of grey in the right side, and of course, his Asian features.
"Then the last two is Enrique and Franz. Also known as Echo (Enrique), and Foxtrot or Nova (Franz)." He finished. An even closer look… the first one, Enrique, grey navy fleet commander uniform, broad muscular body, Rolex watch in his left wrist, and his super charged electric blue eyes that keeps sparking electricity (literary!).
Then the second one, his twin brother Franz, almost everything the same thing as his twin but, an urban camouflage uniform, fun expression and a golden ring. Well that I oh-great-and-awesome god, Selust, mentioned it… all of them had rings, except for my enemy, France. Must be too wimpy to get a girl! Note my sarcasm bitches! (The author of this book doesn't need to take the blame for the rude, yet fitting word for anything but I do, because it is all in my power to do so! Muwhaha! )
Percy`s POV:
We were now walking towards the Big House with our 'new allies' and the Olympians with us. And when I said "we", it meant for me, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Leo, Reyna, Hazel, Frank, Nico, the Stolls, Katie, Clarisse, Will, and of course, Chiron.
I was getting irritated by that nudity and lust god, and his pain in the ass children. All his sons kept on hitting every girl that ever placed a foot in this camp, good thing that none of them has fallen for their traps.
Speaking of new allies, I gotta say, they were extremely cool, and Annabeth had her brain blown to tiny bits! She`s still blabbing about the way their transportation were made and how they use both modern and advance weapons unlike our trerimes and even the one Leo built; doesn't look could last a minute against does ships (Their war ships. On the water! ). We sat down on a very large round table with the Olympians and the 13th on the other side.
But before that, why don't I tell you what happened earlier?
2 hours earlier:
I was lying my head on Annabeth`s lap while she reads a book about architecture, and my younger brothers Tyson, Joseph in our right, and my half-sister Miley in our left, next to Annabeth. We were in the beach. I lifted my head so now I was sitting and placed my left arm around her, keeping her safe after a memory of falling to Tartarus flashed. She placed her head in my shoulders, still reading the book, and I placed a loving kiss on her head.
Then we heard two familiar voices clearing their throats. We lifted our heads and saw our dad, Poseidon, and Annabeth`s mom, Athena. We all quickly stood up and bowed and lifted our heads… again. Poseidon was first to speak. "Well, I see my children are doing fine, after that blasted god of etc, etc… came back." He said. I swear me and my dad has the same opinion about that god. "Speak for yourself, barnacle beard." Lady Athena said irritated. "I can't do anything about my daughters against Selust`s children." She mumbled. "Same here." Dad said.
"You guys worry too much. Big brother Perce here will show who`s boss. Ain`t that right Perce?" My young fifteen year old brother bragged. I shook my head and chuckled. "Yeah, what he said." Earning a smile from Athena and dad. Then Annabeth spoke. Finally! "Mother, you wouldn't happen to have your sacred owl of yours with you, do you?" Asked Annabeth sweetly. "Yes, dear daughter. Why do you ask?" Said lady Athena as her sacred owl appeared on her hand.
"Can I see him?" Asked Annabeth. "Of course!" Said Athena. The owl flopped its wings and flew to Annabeth`s arm. She caressed the owl`s face and an evil smirked grew on her face. Suddenly, she gave the owl a powerful head butt and the owl fell in the sand. Lady Athena ran after her sacred owl and dad laughed as hard as he could and I could help but laugh too. "Annabeth! Why did you do that?!" Roared Athena. "That's for leading me to a chamber full of spiders and towards Arachne`s chamber!" She exclaimed towards the poor dizzy owl.
Then, dad spoke, "Alright, enough with the head banging. We need to be at least a hundred meter away from the beach." Say what? "Because my son, we are going to meet a few new friends." He explained after reading my thoughts. I looked at my brothers and sister who had a large question mark engraved on her head and then to Annabeth who is calculating about something. I then turned my head towards our godly parents and did as they have said.
Present times:
We were discussing where they would be staying. "Well, I received a letter from father and in here he clearly said that me: Alexander. Shall build a cabin next to the…" said Alexander taking another look at the a4 size sheet and the continuing. "Nemesis. The goddess of revenge and evil deeds. Tempting, guess I will need a very high-tech defenses." He finished. I saw Nemesis narrow her eyes at him.
"Then, Boaz has to build his cabin next to Nike; the goddess of victory. Hmm, Boaz has always been a victorious commander against the heaviest weapon and on head-on wars and supportive fire." I saw Nike blush to be next to him.
"After that, Cesar. You were assigned next to the Dionysus cabin." "Cheers mate. You and I can have the longest drinking contest." Said Cesar hoarsely. "Whenever you`re ready Cheddar." Dionysus said. Cesar moved his humongous hands towards his helmet and twisted it anti-clockwise first revealed his tan skin colored face, Spanish traits, perfect face and his deadly flaming blue eyes. "it`s Cesar. You better remember it if you don`t want to first hand feel my full wrath." He said threateningly. "That's enough. We cannot start another war because of your tempers." Said France commandingly.
"now that`s done, big brother is assigned next to a hunter." He said. Who is the 'hunter'? Then I suddenly figured it out… it was Lady Artemis! Everyone was silent. Then here was the scream everyone was waiting for. "What?!" Only none other than Lady Artemis herself. "Which primordial god is your parent anyway?" asked Lady Athena.
"Lady Athena, I cannot tell you that. In this letter, father had clearly stated never to say his name for it is too powerful. We hope you understand." Said Alexander. "Of course we do. But why next to Artemis?" Asked Lord Zeus. "Well, big brother had a quote: "keep your fellow hunters/huntresses close and safe." So father had placed him next to a huntress." Alexander said.
I saw France face palmed himself. "They better not flirt with my huntresses or I will personally throw you all to Tartarus." Lady Artemis threatened. Then, there was a brief flash and a black scroll decorated in femur bones fell on her lap. She lifted the scroll, unrolled it and starting reading out loud.
"Dear Lady Artemis,
This is Tartarus, I recommend never using my name or it will be me, who will personally send you to the Underworld for a month.
Best regards: Tartarus
Ps: Tell Nebula that his father wanted him to pick a woman to marry in eight months, or else, he would do it for him and that he`s not going to like it."
She looked at everyone with a nervous expression and turned to France/Nebula who was banging his head on the table, and then the scroll disappeared in a cloud of black mist. "He has gotta be kidding me! First he sends me back here after improving his domain`s defenses. Then he tells me to get married in eight months?! Can he give me a stinkin` break?" He complained. "What can we say; a man who is drool and dreamed by women so much must settle down, again. Even after his first love is perishes, he must keep moving on in life." Says Boaz.
"Since when did you become poetic?" He asked. "Since my marriage." Boaz answered. "Whatever. If anyone need me, I'm gonna be outside, building the cabin with my boys." France said before leaving. I caught a glimpse of Lady Aphrodite having her eyes on him before he disappeared from the doors of the Big House and we all heard him shout.
"Hustle up! We don't have all day. So get crackin` and start packin` your tools. We`re gonna be building a cabin." He said. Then one of his boys commented. "Finally, I was dying to boredom in this place. I would rather kill monsters 24/7 if I wasn't ordered to stay in here."
"Now that he`s gone, Enrique, you're gonna be building yours next to Hermes cabin." I saw Lord Hermes eyes flicker with mischief. Then I turned to Enrique and saw his eyes flicker with a deeper mischief. Must be both in loved on stealing? Then I saw Enrique gave me a Say-what-now look. Then France`s twin chuckled.
"And then, last but not always the least, the twin brother, is staying next to Hecate cabin." I saw Hecate flush furiously and Franz shook his head in amusement. "There it is… the position on where we are to be positioned. We better start building if we want to make into our first dinner here." Alexander finished.
Boaz stood up and brushed his left hand on top of his hair to keep them out of his face and moved out. Cesar picked up his helmet from the table and placed it back on before moving. Then Enrique and Franz followed by before playfully pushing each other and saying some small curses to each other and laughing.
Everyone saw that Lady Artemis was a little shaken up after the message Tartarus gave her. I felt a tug on my right arm and when I turned around, Annabeth was tugging me to go with her. What else does a faithful, loving boyfriend would do to his out of this world, gorgeous girlfriend? So I did what she was telepathically telling me to do… go with her.
France`s POV:
I walked over to my boys and said "Hustle up! We don't have all day. So get crackin` and start packin` your tools. We`re gonna be building a cabin" then my ever-so-complaining Sgt. Gaz piped in "Finally, I was dying to boredom in this place. I would rather kill monsters 24/7 if I wasn't ordered to stay in here." Then my good friend Ghost said "Captain`s orders are law. So let`s get movin`."
We went next to the Artemis` cabin fifteen meters away so that we have a dead-eye rage if they ever want a piece of us. Our cabin was going to be fifteen meters long and ten meters wide. Then it was gonna be twenty meters high, with midnight black columns (there be six. Three in each side.), two reinforced windows in each side of the walls, ceramic titanium four meter high doors, and roman style roof with two medieval style torches beside the doors.
The doors will be made of compressed wood with platinum silver by super glue (tons and tons of super glue) to make it extremely strong, 2 inch screws, 5 inch metal spikes to keep guard and falling front steps to trap (anyone we want to) people.
My boys started placing marks on the ground while I took of my polo and wrapped it in my waist. Some of my boys copied and started showing off their muscles at the girls and Aphrodite and Venus girls that passes by. The first thing we did was placing four deep foundations so the cabin doesn't collapse or move out of position. Then we placed four more foundations, but this time its iron steel with aluminum alloy for the base of the roof.
After doing that, I used my super human powers and mix water, concrete and steel together and resulted with a pretty bad building, and then I turned to my boys and said "Time to work up the details." I said smiling. We pulled out chainsaws (don't really know why), jackhammers, drills, screw driver and etc…
We started drilling the six columns to a perfect way we wanted it to be, making holes in each side, and using jackhammer in the roof. A bunch of Aphrodite and Venus girls are crowding us and slowly forming a large circle. Mactovic then exclaimed "Feel the manpower!" He said as he pushed the jackhammer down the sides of the slowly forming roof. I heard the girls cooed and shook my head in amusement. "Yep, some things never change." I thought.
Yuri placed a chisel in one of the windows and with a powerful blow, a square shape window fell from the inside and out. Then he went with other sides. Martinez pulled the lever in the chainsaw and it burst to life, he stated cutting the doors from the side (that`s in front of the girls) and we could all here them (girls) giggle and cooed at Martinez`s physical feature and they started moving forward and started landing their hands on his muscles in which he didn't really mind. He kept a straight face as usual.
I turned my head back to the Big House and saw my brothers coming out and started making plans and the Olympian, minor and major gods and goddesses started moving out too and towards their children cabins to do some stuff. Then, I saw Lady Artemis walked by with her huntresses behind her. She stopped and gave me a glare in which in retuned I gave her a friendly smile. They went to their cabin and shunted the door hard.
The cabin took approximately four hours to build. Now that`s the way to show how we can do things extreme! We went inside and then I placed a spell that would make this cabin extremely large from the inside while it looks same in the outside. We then placed our beds one by one and made it in a military way of bunks. So it`s gonna be like six in each side and in the middle in the corner will be my spot. There will be a bar where we could put drinks like vodkas, martinis, fruit cocktails, and etc… then we have eleven different cabinets.
The first cabinet is for assault rifles. So any kind of rifles ever invented is stashed in there.
The second was for submachine guns. Any kind of Smg guns are placed there.
Third were light machine guns.
Fourth were launchers.
Fifth were explosives. These are very different than grenades.
Sixth were pistols.
Seventh were machine pistols.
Eight were normal grenades.
Ninth were shotguns. Pumps, autos, lever actions, brake barrels, and mini war-heads users.
Tenth were sniper rifles.
Eleventh the last, were our bulletproof vest, battle armors, and other kinds of armors.
So after we finished everything, we all took a warm, refreshing, quick baths. We heard the horn of some kind and there was a brief knock on the door. I went to get it and when I opened it was Lady Aphrodite in the door in a seductive pose. "Can we help you?" I asked being the gentleman. "The question is, handsome. 'Can I help?'" She asked.
I raise an eyebrow and said "Please get to the point." I said. "Fine, the horn meant dinner. It`s in the Mess Hall. Don't be late." She said giving me a wink and swaying her ass left and right at me. She turned back and gave me another wink before going to the Mess Hall.
When I turned back, my boys were wolf whistling at me and where saying things like "Whoo-ey never knew you had it in ya Capt." or something like "If I were you, I would have knock her asleep." I shook my head in amusement and said "C`Mon dinners up." And we all went in our black camo uniform towards the Mess Hall.
We reached the Mess Hall and saw that there was a table for us and our other co-operatives were already sitting on their own tables. It was a round table with my swords, Elder star and Death star, crossed together in the middle and pictures of our past wars and of course; the universe in one picture. There was a note in the middle and I picked it up. It said
"Dear son,
This will be your new table in here in Camp Half-Blood and I would like to tell you that I would be taking over for now and that I want to see my future daughter-in-law soon!
You dare come back without my future-daughter-and law and I will personally choose the worst bride you will ever know!"
I shook my head and we all settled down the table. Our table was in the middle and I was sitting with Martinez in my right and Ghost in my left with Maxima next to him. Once I took a notice on our table, we were next to the huntresses and the Aphrodite/Venus tables. The huntresses were giving us death glares while the Aphrodite/Venus table were fanning themselves so we could smell their perfumes. I, Martinez, and Ghost groaned while the others chuckled.
The nymphs were fighting who would give us our food so I did the only thing that would stop this chaos; I told both of them that they could both serve us all and they ran left and right and accidently smacked with each other once. We heard giggling behind us and I already knew who it was, it was the Aphrodite and Venus girls.
Our dinner was plates of spaghetti, fried chickens, mash potatoes, soft drinks, and etc… We placed some sacrifices and ate. I leaned in the table and my hair fell in front of my face. I noticed that it was already half grey, I feel that the more I use my powers, the more my hair turns grey and the more I get weaken.
3rd Person POV:
The whole Mess Hall was filled with fun, family love, couples love and friends who was having so much fun, but it was interrupted when a black mist suddenly covered the Hall`s floor and moved and covered the Delta force`s table. Every last one of the 13th looked terrified, angry or either ready for action.
The Delta force stopped eating and slowly reached for their weapons but the mist slowly starting to take form. "This is…" mumbled Ghost loud enough and then Martinez finished it. "Not good." He finished then there was a powerful explosion in their table, sending Martinez, Gaz, Dante, Mactovic, Archer and Yuri towards the Aphrodite/Venus table.
And Ghost, Max, Chaffin, Campo, Mason and Ramirez in the Artemis` table who pulled their bows and arrows and pointed it either to them or the black hooded man with a skeleton scythe. France was shot towards the table of Zeus and Hera was sitting.
Ares commented afterwards "now who`s your invincible force?" Everyone stood up to attack but the hooded man exclaimed "Sit!" All of them were glued to their chairs and then he spoke again "This fight is only between me and the so-called Delta force." His voice sounded so hoarse, so threatening that they weren`t able to do anything.
Gaz, Dante, Mactovic, Archer and Yuri landed in the floor while Martinez landed square in the table. The others groaned and wasn't able to get up in a few moments but Martinez stood up with his three foot, double edged sword in which had a phrase saying "Στις πιο σκοτεινές βάθος θα το φως του με καθοδηγήσει το δρόμο σας πίσω στο σωστό δρόμο." Or in English "In the darkest depths shall the light of me guide your way back to the right path."
His sword was sword edge, three foot long, narrow straight saber, extremely sharp, and a hilt often featuring a solid cupped or basket shaped guard. He stood up with his collar opened, long sleeve shirt folded under his elbows, angry hateful expression written on his face.
"Looks like someone has been cheated? Tell me, how does it feel when people call you a low-life?" The hooded man asked. "It feels great not caring for anyone." Martinez said bloodthirstily. "You made me re-think twice, last time I thought, your siblings were all happy and bright children? Now you seem so, so dark." He said. "Good, because you're about to be chopped to pieces!" Martinez said. "Really? Is that so?" The hooded man dared. "Ohh yeah." A voice said behind him. "Delta force on your feet!" France exclaimed.
France pulled both Elder and Death star and charged full force towards the hooded man. "Void, you chose the wrong planet to disturbed, you chose the wrong time and the wrong man to piss! Now you`re gonna be grind meat." He said as pulled elder star from his right hand towards void full force. His sword collided with his scythe with so much power that table next to them placed their hands in their faces to cover them.
Void summoned the exact same copy of the delta force and Ghost exclaimed "Fight your copies! Don't fight who you think is the enemy." He said. Max stood up slowly by putting his hand in top of the table with the huntresses glaring at him. "Dude, you got some powerful kick!" He said standing up straight.
The copy of him stood on top of the table smirking at him and said "Poor old you, your old lover is in front of you and you still don't know who she is." He taunted. "Impossible, she married my bastard, back stabbing brother!" He said as he pulled two silver desert eagles and both started firing at each other.
The others finally got up and pulled their swords, spears, staffs, axes, shields, knives, bow and arrows (Archer) and fifty cal. pistols (Max`s desert eagles). The whole Camp Olympus was awed by how they fought.
Max fought with never missing bullets but was shot in the left shoulder but still active. Ghost fought with his sword ablaze in black fire. Archer fought with bow and arrows in incredible speed, his copy summoned hell-hounds but he took them all out. Martinez fought on top of the Aphrodite and Venus table with himself (copy). Yuri fought with a battle axe and a shield making him the most dangerous enemy just below Martinez. And so it went on till the last of the Delta.
France battled Void who in which, everyone knew, was the 'evil' twin brother of Chaos. "Still thinking you could beat me at a merely sparring game, huh?" Void asked. "I've beaten Chaos, I`ve beaten both Helix and Illuminati in a hand to hand combat. You're just a little speck of crap in my way trying to annoy me." He said angrily. "Ahh, what happened to your manners, boy?" He asked mockingly. "I lost them the same day I lost my wife!" He said before driving Death star towards Void. Void used his scythe but the immense power of Death star out powered his own.
Void fell and leaned on the table of the Delta force and smiled "Now I know why Chaos told me not to mess with you, kid." Then he exploded in a black mist. Every last one of his copies that he made disappeared with him. The Olympians finally stood up and were about to cheer for them when one by one, they all fell to their knees and blacked out. The last thing they remembered was everyone running towards them. France`s hair turned a little bit more silvery.
