Chapter Forty

A deep fury ran through my veins even as I walked into the school the following Monday. It had taken being reminded by Luffy of all people that I needed to go back to get information and protect my Nakama. I was still pissed off, but with Law keeping me calm, I wouldn't do anything too terrible. My eyes lingered on Luna for a moment and I smiled softly at the smile on her face. Luffy, Sabo, and Ace walked behind me as we moved towards the castle. They had decided that in order to keep me truly calm, they would be present until the duel. Everyone had agreed with the idea even if there were some grumbles. I really hope the duel comes soon because I'm rather eager to tear that bearded bastard to shreds. Tundra growled softly, but made no move to speak. She had been present in my mind and had gone to her usual place in my mind because she wanted revenge. Only when we had gotten it, would she return to her usual place until the next threat showed itself. With those thoughts in mind, I opened the doors to the castle and we walked inside. The noise of the great hall had been deafening until we entered where only breathing could be heard. The sweet tang of pure fear filled the hall in a tantalizing way. Tundra growled in approval and smirked, "Fear. These idiots have yet to truly experience our power, yet they are so scared of us. It will be pleasing to see how much fear they will have when we finally reveal what and who we are."

"Agreed," I murmur in reply before looking at the head table where the Founders sat, "Have you decided when this 'duel' shall take place?"

"In a month," Salazar answered causing Tundra to growl in anger, "It will give both participants time to prepare,"

"Any rules I must know now in order to prepare for them?" I asked causing Rowena to speak up.

"This is a magic only duel," She answered causing me to nod, "No weapons are allowed,"

"As you wish," I answer before my Nakama take our seats.

Percy, Thalia, and Nico were quick to join us along with Fleur. Fleur's little sister was absent, but I guess the scare of waking up in the lake caused it. Percy spoke up as we got our food, "So Kaileara I'm kinda confused."

I look at him with a raised eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

"If you're so pissed at seeing Luna missing, why didn't you cause trouble before the task started?" He asked and I sighed.

"While I could have caused trouble, I didn't for two simple reasons," I answer before holding up a finger, "The first is that I wanted to find the guilty party and attack them rather than the innocent," I raised a second finger, "The second is that I wanted to get Luna out of danger as soon as possible. The merpeople are not known for being kind to those that invade their domain. If Luna had been under there for longer than the time limit, they would have killed her regardless of their treaty with the surface," Many pale upon hearing that and the sudden silence in the great hall told me that everyone was listening to me, "The ones here are diffrent from the ones back home. They are more instinctual and will defend their territory in anyway possible from anything they find a threat. Luna and the other captives were considered a threat and would have been killed had the time-limit expired before they were removed from the village," I offered the slightly pale faced boy a calm stare, "Sea creatures like those mermen that live here hate the humans on the surface because of the prejudiced they've shown. It is no surprise that they would do something like that," I snort softly and laid my head on my steepled fingers, "After all, blood is blood and any blood from the surface being shed by them would allow their ancestors that were betrayed by the humans regardless of if the human was innocent," I offered him a smirk, "It is the way of the world even if it's disgusting. Even with my past, I would never shed the blood of an innocent if it was avoidable,"

The silence in the great hall was deafening as my words echoed through the air. Someone finally stuttered out, "H-how d-do y-you k-know?"

"I listened to the world around me and took trips into the black lake once I found out where the event was taking place," I answer after I took a sip of my coffee, "The day before the task, I went under and swam over to the village. Imagine my surprise when I found that they were having a meeting," A feral smile appeared on my face, "They said that while they had agreed to allow the task to occur in their village, they wouldn't allow any surface dwellers to stay in the village longer than the allotted hour once the cannon went off. They would kill anyone left," I turned my body and looked straight at Dumbledore who paled, "The thing is, Dumbledore knew of the danger when he planned the task. He didn't care about the merpeople's hate for humans because he just wanted a tough challenge," I turned back to my table, "Ain't that a surprise,"

With chaos properly sown, I ate my food before going to get ready for class. Ah how good it was to spread chaos and do it at the expense of one that I hated to the core of my being.

With the gods

Eris giggled with glee, "Ah the chaos and the hatred are so strong in her. I'm so proud!"

"Why the hell are you so happy?" One of the Norse, lady Sif.

"Because it's chaos!" Eris chirped, "If chaos is happening, I'm happy. I'm the goddess of chaos, strife and discord after all,"

"Why are you proud of her?" Thor asked the black haired goddess with unnerving, in his opinion, red eyes.

"Because I was the first one to introduce her to pranks when we first met," She answered with a happy sigh, "Ah she took so well to my lessons," She sighed softly, "It's a shame she's with that hot piece of meat. I would have loved to have her in my bed,"

Many of men in the room stared at her with small nose bleeds. The women either shook their heads with small smiles or shot the woman looks of disgust. She ignored it as she skipped happily towards one of the high windows in the large room they had been given. Hermes shook his head and spoke up, "So Percy, Thalia, and Nico are truly with her."

"Traitorous dogs!" Zeus growled.

"We didn't really given them another choice," Apollo pointed out causing Zeus to round on him, "If they hadn't chosen to take this mission, you would have killed them because you fear their power,"

"They are the oldest of our demigod children to survive," Hades pointed out while looking at his brother with slightly narrowed eyes.

"Why would you fear them?" Odin asked with a small frown, "They are merely children,"

"Children that could kill us all if they are allowed to continue to grow," Zeus retorted.

"They wouldn't want to kill us if they had actually been given a reason to love us," Hestia spoke up causing most to flinch back at the disappointment in her voice, "They have done more for us than most demigods, yet what are they given? Betrayal, distrust, blame, and so much more," She sighed deeply, "I can see why they went to Kaileara,"

"What do you mean Sister?" Poseidon asked softly.

"She offers them a home," Hestia answered with a small smile, "She offers them family. She offers them a way to stop fighting. She offers them a way to get stronger without repercussions," Many looked at the goddess in surprise, "She offers them a way to get away from causing others around them to fear them. She offers them that and more," She looked at Zeus, "You have only offered them negatives. She has offered them positives. She has offered them the one thing all three crave,"

"And what's that?" He demanded.

"The love of family," Zeus recoiled as if slapped, "She understands what it's like to be in their position. She knows what they've gone through and will save them from the pain that she had once felt," Hestia offered Zeus a calm smile, "She is truly worthy of her powers,"

"You've chosen the side of the spirits!" Zeus accused her causing her to shake her head in disappointment.

"No I've chosen to be neutral," She said with an eternally calm smile on her face, "I will not try to kill one family member or another. My hearth is open to all in need. I am tired of watching my family be torn to shreds brother," She turned and began to leave the room, "Do as you wish brother, but I will not harm my family,"

They watched as she left the room and Zeus scowled as many of the Greeks began to glare at him.

With Kaileara

I leaned against one of the walls of the school with an easy smile on my face. I took a deep bite from the apple in my hand just as Percy walked up to me. He looked at the apple and asked, "Where the hell did you get that?"

"Pocket Space," I answer before pulling out another, "Want one?"

He shrugged and took the apple, "So what'd you want?"

"What did the gods do while I was away with everyone?" I asked as he took a bite of the apple.

"This is really sweet," He commented before saying, "Just observing their surroundings and watching the three of us. We managed to avoid having to go near them, but it won't last too long,"

I nodded at that, "I see. Thank you for telling me."

He nodded and headed off to his next class. I frowned lightly as I thought over what the gods could be doing before deciding that it wasn't worth my attention for now. I really needed to think of ways to torture Dumbledore before I ended him during the duel. While I'm not cocky enough to think it'll be easy, I know that in the end I'll be the one left breathing. I'll need to make sure his body is burned if only to make sure he hasn't used some form of magic to stay alive. It's a sickening magic that type and if I actually saw magic as dark or light, it would be dark. The ways weren't as numerous here as they were back home, but the ones here are even more sickening. I better get to practicing my elemental magic and tracing runes/seals in the air. If I can do that, I will be able to have a wider rang of plans to work with and be able to get a new bit of seals from the clan. It takes a lot of concentration and magic for one to be able to do that after all.

With Dumbledore

He paced the length of his now small office and cursed under his breath. Damn that brat for revealing that. Now he'll be under even more suspicion and it'll be harder to find ways to get that little bitch under his thumb again. Why the hell did he have to use her as a scapegoat to deal with Tom? It's all her fault all his plans are ruined. The duel will be his way to put her in her place, but the question is how. She has shown the ability to use wandless magic to a point, but what if she has more under her belt. No matter. The ritual he used on his body during the break will prevent him from dying unless his body is burned. Even he isn't desperate enough to tear his soul into pieces just to escape death. He had to admit that it was rather satisfying to use those mudbloods in that ritual. Ah to be unkillable was the best gift he could give to the world. It was after all for the greater good.

A rather short chapter, but next chapter will have the duel in it.
