A/N: I have no school Friday, so I should be able to update then, but this will probably be the last update until then! Thanks! The Roman people will be announced next chapter!
Chapter 3
POV Flin (Head Boy of Camp Half-Blood, Son of Poseidon)
We are nearing the place where the titans headquarters is. I have a feeling that it will be a bloodbath. Not a good one either, they will probably kill all of us, and Jezebelle and the Praetor too. When we are almost there, Willow leans over to me. "It'll be okay. I know you're thinking of every possible way it could go wrong, it won't."
"Thanks," I whisper back, and we park along the road. "It will be a long walk up, but we should be okay and be there in less than an hour."
After about an hour's walk we arrive at a big, black stone building. I gulp and start to open the door.
POV Jezebelle (Head Girl of Camp Half-Blood, Daughter of Hera)
After being freed and sent back into a cell, I realize I am not alone. "What's your name, child?" I ask in a quiet voice to the young girl that is by me. She is in all gray and her gray eyes follow me wherever I am.
"Arianna," She whispers, walking over to me.
"What's your parent?" I ask her and she shakes her head no.
"Mine's Hera." I continue, maybe she just wanted to know mine.
"I've heard about you. You're the one they're always talking about."
"What's your parent?" I ask again and she this time looks ready to listen.
"Metis." I look surprised, a Titaness as her mother. Metis is very smart, almost smarter than her daughter, Athena.
"Why are you here? They should love you since you are a child of a titan," I say, kneeling down closer to the girl.
"They think Metis is a traitor, she married Zeus and had the smartest child that he has ever had. What's happening?" Arianna says, looking past me at the titans who are trying to hack at something. I see glimmers of hope rise in her eyes.
"Jezebelle!" I hear a shout and my heart lifts.
"Flin!" I scream and I see him dash past the monsters and Titans and he uses something to open the door.
I run into his arms and I'm crying, tears silently running down my face. I also see half-bloods standing behind him, the titans nowhere in sight. "Where'd they go?" I ask, my smile disappearing.
"They ran," A girl says, and I realize who it is, the daughter of Aphrodite, Juliette.
"Where's the Praetor?" One of the boys speaks up, and its Joseph from the Hermes cabin. My heart stops cold when I see Marisol from the Eris cabin, why would Flin take her?
"The Praetor is a traitor," I say wincing, and staggering to the ground. The pain pills are wearing off. The full force of the wound is starting again.
"What?" One of them says, crestfallen. Willow from the Demeter cabin's face is so sad that I wish I could do something.
"He sliced me," I say, pointing to my leg and Amber from Apollo rushes forward and gets behind me.
"Let's get her out of here," Evan rumbles and I agree and Flin and Amber help me walk.
Blake, Juliette, Evan, Willow, Laurel and Victoria stand on one side of me while Marisol, Joseph, Asher and Danielle are on my other side, all of them have blades drawn. Amber is helping me walk while digging in her pocket for something. I eye Marisol while we continue to walk. I have a feeling that she won't be very nice when I need anyone most.
"We're almost out," Flin whispers in my ear and I face his sea green eyes.
POV SWITCH: Danielle Evo (Daughter of Nemesis)
I see Blake disappear first, and I whisper in Flin's ear that Blake is gone. Then I realize, we are not alone in the room. "Monsters." I whisper.
The monsters charge forward and I see them lose Jezebelle in the chaos. She falls to the ground, her white dress fanning out around her. A huge snake-like thing faces off with Flin less than fifteen feet away, Amber is fighting a huge Cyclops farther away than Flin. Willow is trying to get wheat to grow to confuse the enemies, but to no avail. Blake reappears and disappears throughout the thing, making me be a bit worried. I back up towards Jezebelle, she looks like she's awake.
Asher and Juliette are fighting a circle of enemies that surround them and seem to be doing okay. "Jezebelle!" I whisper fantically, and Amber has finally dispatched of the Cyclops and is running towards me. "Get her out of here!" I tell Amber.
I dash into the battle and immediately almost run back out. Massive spiders are everywhere. How did they all get here? "Retreat!" I screech and I immediately see some run out the front doors. I only see a couple left. Myself, Evan is trying to blast a Cyclops that is trying to get at Willow and Laurel, Flin is battling the snake thing still and Marisol is trying to help Flin.
"Get out!" I scream and Marisol runs this time, and Evan finishes the Cyclops and those three run out. "Flin!"
Flin hesitantly runs after me and we dash past the black steps. I lunge into the front seat and turn on the engine. I floor the gas pedal and start to go.
POV Amber Grace (Daughter of Apollo)
Flin, Willow, Jezebelle and I sit in the trunk and I am trying to put herbs on Jezebelle's wounds to heal them. "It's deep. It'll take a while to heal. We just need to get back to camp." I say looking at the hideous gash in her leg.
Willow almost looks like she's going to throw up, but she wants to be here for her friend. Flin takes a bottle of water and opens it and focuses the water on the wound. I watch in puzzlement as the wound slowly goes away. "How'd you do that!" I say.
"Son of Poseidon does certain things," Flin says and he grins. I notice that it wasn't like it has been before, less sad and more happy, more joyful now that Jezebelle is here. It's like he's a new person.
Jezebelle's eyes flutter open and a smile goes across her pale face. "I'll leave you two," I pull on Willow's arm.
Willow and I climb over the seats and we scoot in, trying not to squish people. Evan fake gags and I glare at him. "It's normal," Willow whispers harshly. Danielle's driving could use some work, but for the most time we were under the speed limit. We stop in the middle of the night at a motel and we each get our own room since it is such a small town.
A/N: I am so, so sorry that I have no romans in here and believe me, I have a plan since Jezebelle is back! Okay, if you want to continue to be in this story, you HAVE to answer this question, otherwise your out. Got it? C: Okay, here it is

Janice
Jezebelle
Praetor Greene (Remember, not many know of his traitorous move)

Choose which one you would like to go with, and maybe they will. It depends on how much I like the character and which one it would fit well with. Thanks!
