Rated T 'cause this is gonna get ugly.
It was the hunters verses the campers, as per the norm.
The campers had decided to hide their flag on a little island in the middle of the lake, using the Demeter cabin to grow a tree 30 meters tall, placing it at the top.
The plan was simple, Nico shadow travels over, grabs the flag, and gets back, this was going to be a cinch!.
With the hunters of Artemis
The minute they saw a 30 meter tall tree sprout from the ground, they knew they were in trouble. It ended up being Thalia, Phoebe and Casey who'd go to get the flag, and Reeta, Rachel (no, not the oracle), Lisa and Bella who'd defend the flag, and Maia, Sally (not Percy's mother), Lynette, Luba and Leah to defend their territory at border control.
The plan was simple, run to the enemy side, Thalia shoots a lightning bolt at the tree, since she's too afraid of heights to fly up there, directs the wind to give it to her, and they get back.
This was going to be so easy.
Present time.
Chiron sounded the horn, and they were off.
Thalia, Phoebe and Casey bolted to the other side, but strangely enough, no one ran to their side, oh well, must know they've got competition.
Thalia was about to raise her spear and summon a lightning bolt, since channeling her energy through the spear, using the metal as a conductor, always used less of her energy, when a sword stopped her.
Turning, she faced her cousin.
This would be good.
Somewhere in the shadows….
Nico went through the shadows, scouring the area for any sign of the flag. None so far, looks like he'd have to keep looking. Oh well, not like anything's gonna happen, after all, no killing and minimal maiming, right?
Back on the battlefield….
Thalia swung out with her spear, Percy blocked. They'd been fighting for 10 minutes now.
'where in hades is Nico?" he thought.
Though before he had the time to process what was happening, a silver arrow flew through the air, and with a piercing sound, hit Percy in the back.
He froze, gasping for air due to the arrow landing near, nearly piercing his lung.
He dropped, forward, of course, knowing that dropping backwards would only result in his death.
Thalia froze, mouth agape.
"Percy!" she screamed.
The shadows bunched together and out came Nico, looking tired as Hades, but holding the flag, "We wo- Percy!" he yelled, running to his cousin who was being held by Thalia, an arrow sticking up from his back, and his shirt stained with blood that just kept flowing.
"What happened!?" he demanded, kneeling by his 'cousins' and examining the wound.
"I-I don't know, one minute we're fighting then the next minute there's an arrow hitting Percy in the back," she said, her voice wobbly, as if trying to keep from breaking down.
He examined the arrow and gasped.
On it was Greek writing, 'Otus, son of Gaea' it read.
He swallowed a lump down his throat. Somehow, it appeared that Otus had managed to shoot Percy. But that was impossible, they'd destroyed him, him and Apollo- which was mostly because he kept looking at Percy in a way that made him want to gauge the Giants' eyes out- had seen his demise, so that must mean it was one of his minions, there were still plenty running around, yet another reason why the half-bloods were all at camp. But the question of how they'd managed it haunted his mind, what if not even camp was safe, he thought, before looking up and realizing, with a jolt that they were near the barrier, and right outside it were five Cyclopes, except, they weren't really Cyclopes…
One had an eye-patch, another had tattoos, another had a lot of chain, another wore enough leather to put Thalia and Nico to shame, and the last, well, he was definitely the worst. He stood wearing a -*shudder* pink tutu!
They all had bows drawn, all aiming for one of the mini-big three.
"Everyone! Run! Now!" he yelled, pointing at the hill.
The others looked and screamed.
Hundreds of arrows flew from their bows, which seemed impossible till you looked closer and saw the extra hands.
"What are those!?" asked Thalia, as she and Nico hurried an unconscious Percy to the infirmary.
"I have no clue," said Nico, mouth agape.
"Archers, ready!" yelled their resident archery king, Will Solace.
The Apollo, Artemis, Ares and Athena cabins, the 'A' list, as they were called, not because they were the best, no, but because all of their godly parents names started with an 'a' and also because they were the best archers.
They took aim and let loose their arrows.
"Demeter and Dionysus, now!" yelled Katie.
Together the two cabins wrapped vines around the five figures.
Thalia and Jason held hands and, together, summoned an enormous 100 kilowatt bolt straight for the five figures.
The not-cyclopes' screamed as their bodies were destroyed, leaving a golden dust invisible from where the closest camper stood.
Will pushed forward, staggering a little.
He pointed at Percy, "Get him inside. NOW!"
The two 'cousins'- er, sorry, the cousin and the 'cousin' took him to the infirmary and laid him down on the bed.
This was going to be one long night….

whoo! Done! soz if this ending saddens you but he'll be alright…. Probably, I just wanted to do something to create some family drama between him and his 'cousin' *wink*, and his cousins, as well as his kids. Poor li'l Sebby, dun't even know what 'appened to 'is madda! All the ickle one'll understand is that something's bad and probably cry a lot. On page 256 of the maze runner, mom said I could read it till I'm done today, so no bed-time, let's see if I can finish it before tomorrow, because it releases here tomorrow and I want to go to the first showing, at I think 1:30 pm, because Dylan O'B is in it and I, as a loyal teen wolf fan, will watch anything he, Scott [Tyler Posey *insert dreamy eyes*, or Derek [Tyler Hoechlin] are in. btw's 4 some reason the people in my class think I'm only reading this, and that he's only one of my fave actors, 'cause I've got a crush on him. As IF! My crush lies with Tyler P, thank you very much. Damn this is long….
