It's super early in the morning for me but I have a new chapter so I might as well post it now.

Enjoy and comment! Constructive criticism is always welcomed!

Jason Grace was trying really hard to keep all his friends from panicking. Well not all his friends, it was really only Raquel.

"You don't need to freak out."

"But what does he plan on making us do?"

"Nothing too dangerous." Of course what was dangerous to others were everyday occurrences for him. "It's Apollo, not Mars."

"What would've Mars done?"

"Kill us."

"The more and more you talk about the gods the less and less I trust them." Robin said.

Jason laughed, "I never said they were trustworthy."

"I don't mean to interrupt your conversation but," Kaldur pointed up at what he was staring at, "What's that?"

Raquel looked up too, "Do you think it's the Bio-Ship."

"Yup." Robin replied.

"Which is our only mode of transportation."

"Uh-huh."

"Leaving with our supplies?"

"Correct."

"And all our money?"

"You know it!" Robin answered positively. Raquel's shoulders slumped, but Robin gave her a pat on the back. "Don't worry it couldn't get any worse."

"I'm back!" Apollo said enthusiastically when he suddenly appeared behind Jason.

Raquel rubbed her face, "It just got worse."

"Pretty girl is sad

I don't know why

Why are you upset?" the handsome god's terrible haiku was enough to heat Raquel's face up

so much the Jason could practically feel it radiating off of her.

Robin slowly counted all the syllables on his fingers. "Did he even try to make the second line seven syllables?" he asked Jason, who just shrugged.

"Follow me, your mission is this way." The god said as he walked behind a thick gathering of olive trees. Robin, Aqualad, and Jason all moved to follow him behind the trees. Raquel continued to stand in the same place, fixated on Apollo's words.

Jason walked back towards, "Hey Rocket!" He said while snapping in front of her face, which successfully jerked her awake.

"Wow," Raquel muttered, "Apollo is hot."

"He's the sun god."

"That's not what I meant."

-(Line Break)-

Apollo stood in front of the groups of teens, behind him was a large object covered with a grayish tarp. The other teens were trying to figure out what was under the tarp, while Jason was preoccupied with his own thoughts. Right now the group was split into three groups of four. Nico's group was somewhere in Italy looking for the chain, Percy's group was in Dodona looking for Apollo's key-thing, and he was here doing Jupiter-knows-what. Hopefully their task wouldn't scar the mortals for life. The godly world was a scary one and some demigods couldn't live through it. Jason strongly doubted that their mortal minds would be able to comprehend some of the terrors they were going to see.

Jason looked up at Apollo who was making large gestures towards the large tarp. "And this will be your ride!" Apollo abruptly pulled the tarp off revealing a bright red car, specifically a convertible. Since Jason hadn't been listening to a word of what the god was saying had no idea where they needed a ride to.

Raquel gasped, "That's a 1965 Mustang Convertible!" she approached the car and touched its hood. "And in mint condition!"

"Looks like someone know's their cars." Apollo's smiled was as brilliant as the sun itself.

"How far will we have to go?" Kaldur questioned.

"Wait a second," Jason interjected, "Where are we going?"

Apollo ignored Jason and instead answered Kaldur's question, "All the way to the top. Try not to stop 'til you get there!"

"To be honest, that doesn't sound so hard." Robin said.

Jason continued to be confused, "What isn't hard? What's going on?"

Apollo ignored the son of Jupiter a second time, "You shouldn't say things like that, you might jinx yourself." The god laughed and motioned the teens towards the convertible. "You should hurry along, we don't want to waste anymore time." The teens piled into the car. Raquel was at the wheel and Jason in the passenger's seat, Aqualad and Robin sat comfortably in the back.

"What's this?" Robin asked as he lifted a stereotypically wrapped present. The wrapping paper was dark blue and there was a bright yellow bow to tie it off.

"That's the package obviously," Apollo handed Robin a large duffle bag, "Everything you need is in this bag, as long as you have this bag it should be smooth sailing from the moment you hit the mountain. Now off you go!"

"The mountain?" Jason exclaimed, "What mountain?" Of course, Jason's question was never answered because Raquel had already started driving off. "Do you even know how to drive?" he asked her.

"I've got my permit."

"That doesn't count!"

"Why does it matter anyway? It's not like this is a normal car."

Jason was confused again, "What do you mean by this isn't a normal car?"

"Were you listening at all Jason?" Just as Robin said this the car took off of the ground and flew high into the sky. "This is Apollo's flying-chariot-car-thing."

"Woah!" Jason gripped the dashboard in an attempt to not fall out of the car.

"That's what you get for not wearing a seatbelt." Robin chastised him.

"Raquel!" Jason screamed over the roar of the wind, "Do you know how to drive a flying car?"

"I fly on a daily basis!" Raquel screamed back to him, "Plus I watched Harry and Ron do it in the one movie."

"That doesn't count!"

"And that didn't end well for them either, did it?" Robin added.

Jason couldn't believe that these two mortals were completely calm at the concept that a god had a flying car the he uses to pull the sun over the earth. Never again would he question their ability to comprehend what the demigods see everyday.

Jason looked back at Kaldur who had a passive, almost blank, expression on his face. "What do you think about this?" he asked him.

The Atlantean shrugged, "I am not against it but I don't support it."

"I'm glad that we all know where we stand on the issue of Rocket driving a flying car, but shouldn't we be worrying about the wall of rock that we're quickly approaching." Robin pointed to the "wall of rock", which was actually just the mountain side.

"Rocket!" Jason screamed again.

"I've got it! Don't worry!" This only made Jason worry more. Raquel made a sharp turn to the right which caused the car to make a dive equally as sharp as the turn. "Whoops, wrong side." she promptly turned the wheel to the left and the car rose abruptly into the air at an almost vertical slope. While all the boys screamed bloody murder, Raquel led the car over a cliff and onto a paved road.

There was a minute of heavy breathing and calm, before Robin interrupted the silence with laughter, "Was I the only one feeling the aster?"

Raquel laughed and high-fived him. Jason took a deep breath, "No more flying, we'll be driving normally from now on."

"Agreed." Kaldur said in a breathless voice.

-(Line Break)-

Raquel drove on the meandering roads so quickly Jason thought he might have hard attack. He and Robin had switched places, so he was now in the back with Kaldur while Robin sat in shotgun hooting and hollering as Raquel made sharp turns.

"So we have to take this package," Jason held up the dark blue present, "To the top of Mount Parnassus?"

The Atlantean nodded, "Yes that is the mountain we are on right now. But Lord Apollo said it won't be as easy as we expect it to be."

"That's what I thought. Nothing is ever as easy as it seems with us."

"The present is supposed to be a sacrifice to the god Zeus."

"Really?" Jason said, slightly surprised, "You'd think that Apollo would hate Zeus after he banished him to Delphi."

"I was thinking about that as well. But I suspect that whatever that key will open will make Lord Zeus very angry."

Jason finished his thoughts, "So the present, or sacrifice, is a way to calm him before Apollo gets whatever is under his tile."

The Atlantean nodded again, "But what if Lord Zeus doesn't like the sacrifice? What will happen then?"

"Let's try not to think about that."

"Wait a second. Stop!" Robin screamed, making Jason and Kaldur's attention snap back to the front of the car as Raquel made an abrupt stop.

"What are those? Clouds?" Jason asked.

"Isn't it obvious, they're sheep! Just when I didn't think this place was serted." It was an odd answer but Robin wasn't wrong. There were a bunch of giant sheep coming out of a cave, crossing the street, and climbing down the side of the mountain to the next paved road below them. This wouldn't have matter at all but they happened to blocking the path in front of them.

"No problem, let's just wait for them to finish crossing." What Raquel said seemed like a good idea at the time, but ten minutes later waiting for them to finish crossing the road seemed impossible.

"How many sheep are in that cave?" Robin asked with more astonishment than annoyance.

"I think we should just scare them away." Jason said, "Maybe they'll stop walking and clear the path."

"Great idea Flyboy!" Robin said.

Jaso knitted his eyebrows together, "Flyboy?"

"We all have to have a superhero codenames, so you need one too!" Robin jumped out of the car and walked towards the sheep, "I would call you Superboy, but that's already taken!"

Robin walk towards the sheep and Jason realized that he was just as tall as them. That's… weird. Jason couldn't help but have an ominous feeling in the back of his mind, like Robin scaring these sheep was dangerous.

The Boy Wonder made large gestures and loud noises at the sheep but nothing happened. Jason couldn't help but feel relieved when the sheep had no reaction. "Maybe you should get back in the car, Robin." Jason said warily.

"What are you so freaked out about?" Raquel asked, but Jason just brushed it off as nothing.

"Don't worry I've got a new idea." Robin took something out of his belt and threw it at the sheep. It exploded with a pop similar to the sound of a firework but instead of colorful light smoke quickly spread around the sheep.

"See," Robin said, "No problem at- woah!" the boy's body abruptly pulled into the smoke behind him.

"Robin!" Jason screamed as he flew towards the huge clouds of the smoke. He stood where Robin had just been hoping the he would catch a glimpse of him.

Suddenly Robin came out of the smoke laughing to the point of tears, "I'm so sorry! But you were so freaked out earlier that I couldn't help myself."

Jason chuckled, "Very funny." But the Jason still felt the same foreboding feeling that made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. "Let's go back to the car and wait for the smoke to clear." He tried to make Robin go back to the car in hope that this feeling would go away.

As they were walking to the car Raquel screamed, "Watch out!"

One of the giant sheep ran out of the smoke and jumped towards them. Jason grabbed Robin and flew up and out of the way. The sheep crashed ungracefully to the ground, leaving a crater where it landed. The sheep looked up at its prey and bared its sharp teeth.

"Well, I didn't expect that."

"I did," Jason said, "They're sheep from Polyphemus' island, they're so carnivorous that they put a lion to shame." The sheep jumped up almost as high as Jason was flying and snapped at his heels.

"Wow, I feel so safe up here in your arms." Robin said sarcastically.

"You know I could just drop you now and say you slipped. Don't push your luck"

"I'm pretty sure that this doesn't count as luck."

Jason flew over the car and carelessly dropped him inside. "Thanks." the Boy Wonder said as he straightened his mask.

"No problem. Give me my sword." Robin handed Jason his sword (hilt first, or course) and Jason broke into action. He flew high up so the sheep wouldn't be able to jump up and bite into him. Jason hovered behind the sheep, which seemed confused as to where he had gone. He raised his sword high up and it morphed into a spear. The spear crackled with lightning surrounding it, Jason took aim, and threw the spear directly at the sheep. It hit its mark and the sheep howled with pain before exploding into dust. The superheroes whooped and cheered from the car.

"Wait," Aqualad said while standing up, "It's not over." On cue, a bunch of sheep stampeded out of the smoke and towards the car. Kaldur jumped out of the car, took out his Water-Bearers, and created huge clubs out of them. Before the sheep could reach Raquel and Robin he smack them off the mountain. Jason landed on the ground and turned his spear back into a sword and joined Kaldur.

They pushed the sheep back towards the smoke but it was becoming increasingly difficult to hold them there. "We can't hold them back much longer!" Jason yelled over the growls of the sheep.

Jason next stab towards the sheep hit something much more solid than the wool of a carnivorous beast. The herd of sheep still snarled at him but between them was barrier, Jason looked behind himself and saw that Raquel put up some kind of shield.

"We need to go. Now." Kaldur said.

"You don't have to tell me twice." Robin picked up the duffle bag and Zeus' gift and jumped out of the flying car.

"But where are we supposed to go?" Raquel asked, "We can't go back down, we have to finish our mission."

"We'll go the only place we can," Jason looked at the next ledge above them, "Up." Jason willed the wind to pick Kaldur and himself up. Kaldur was obviously caught off guard by the wind sweeping him off his feet but he quickly balanced himself. Jason laughed, "You're a quick learner." The wind carried them up to the road above them and placed them down gently.

Jason was going to go back down and grab Robin, but the boy's grappling gun attached to the railing and pulled him up. Robin landed will a graceful aerial somersault right next to Jason. "What," Robin said seeing the demigod's surprised look, "Not all of us have superpowers."

Raquel slowly flew up while keeping the shield up with the utmost concentration. Once she landed on the road she released the shield and the sheep swarmed the car smelling that their prey had previously been there.

"Great job Raquel." Jason said while giving her a pat on the back, "How'd you keep the shield up for that long?"

"It feeds off the kinetic energy. The more they crashed against it the stronger it got." Raquel smiled, "And thanks."

"Well there goes our ride." Robin said as he looked down on at the sheep covered car. "This kind of makes me hope that Mount Parnassus isn't as serted as I thought."

"Doubt that these will be the first magical beast we face." Kaldur said.

"If it isn't, I'm not too worried." Jason looked at the superheroes, "You guys handled your first monsters really well."

"Will they all be like that?" Raquel asked.

"Not necessarily. Some are mindless demigod eaters, like the sheep, but some are… smarter than that."

Robin looked confused, "What do you mean by smarter?"

Jason chuckled humorlessly, "Some monsters can lure you into traps or kill you slowly." his expression became dark, "Cyclops can mimicked voices, emposai can charmspeak you into doing anything they want, some gods seem like they're borderline monster when they-" Jason felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked from Raquel's hand to her worried expression. "Sorry," he said trying (and probably failing) to smile, "That's not important right now. Let's find a place to rest."

-(Line Break)-

The teens walked for a long while before they found a large cave on the mountainside to rest in. Kaldur sat down as soon as they got inside.

"Aqualad, are you okay?" Jason asked.

"I'm fine. It's just that," Kaldur let out a small puff of air, "It was hot outside and Atlanteans aren't used to that kind of temperature."

"I'll just get you some water from the bag." Robin said opening up the duffle bag. "Holy mountainside, Batman!"

Raquel raised an eyebrow, "What did you just say?"

"Sorry force of habit." Robin said looking into the bag, "There's nothing in here but gardening tools!"

Jason stood by Robin to confirm what he said. It was true, there was nothing in the bag but shovels, spades, and a couple pairs of gloves. "Why would he give us gardening tools instead of actual supplies?"

Jason shrugged, "That's the god of prophecies for you. You think he's saying one thing but he really means another."

"So what are we supposed to do?" Raquel asked, "Starve to death! We can last for a while but I don't know about Aqualad."

"I'll be fine." The Atlantean protested.

"You know what, this is a cave. We can probably find some water somewhere in here." Jason said, "Raquel you watch Kaldur. Robin and I are going to look for water." No one objected since it was the only good idea they had, so Robin and Jason set out in search for water.

There had been about five minutes of awkward silence and walking before Robin asked the million-dollar question. "So why can't you just make it rain on Aqualad?"

"What?" Jason asked.

"You should've just made it rain on Aqualad. You're the son of Jupiter who is the god of lightning which indirectly makes him the god of thunderstorms. Since you can control lightning can't you make a huge storm or something."

Jason contemplated between hitting Robin upside his and actually answering his question. He chose the less violent approach. "I'm only good at the lightning and thunder part. Percy's the one that can make it rain."

"Cool!" Robin said ecstatically. "Have you guys ever teamed up to make a level 40 combo attack."

"What?" Jason said, completely caught off guard by that question.

"You know, a combo attack. It does 20,000 hp damage." Jason's confused expression didn't change. "You know MythoMagic." Robin pulled out a large deck of card.

"Oh my gods, why is everyone into that game?" Jason said rubbing his face.

"You know more people that are into MythoMagic! I only meet other Mythos at the tournaments."

"What in Pluto's names is a Mythos?" Jason wished he hadn't asked any questions at all.

"That's what we call ourselves! I only meet other Mythos at the MythoMagica tournament they hold every year, sometimes it gets so serted. The highest I've ever gone in the tournament is sixth place, I won a medal and everything!" Robin then proceeded to talk endlessly about MythoMagic. Jason didn't have the heart to tell him to shut up, he was so excited to talk to someone about it.

"And then I used Pan's Call of the Wild and won that round. The next guy was really hard to beat. He had a level-"

"Do you hear that?" Jason asked hushing him.

"Hear what?"

"Listen closely." There was the echoing sound of pattering and the air was become humid.

"It's water!" they said in unison and ran forward. Not too far ahead of them was a small pond with crystal clear water. Jason took out an empty bottle and filled it with the water.

"Look," Robin said, pointing to a weird looking tree right next to the pond, "There's fruit on here!" The fruit was oddly shaped but closely resemble a purple-ish pear.

"Robin, I wouldn't eat that if I were-" But the Boy Wonder had already taken a bite.

"It's fine! It taste just like a pear, you want some?" Robin picked several off the tree and offered one to Jason.

"No thanks, let's just get back to Kaldur and Raquel." The walk back was relatively silent as Robin was finishing up the purple pear he took a bite out of. When they got back to the mouth of the cave Aqualad was sleeping and Raquel was standing near him.

"Thank goodness you guys are back. The sun's setting but Kal- Aqualad past out a while back." Jason could see that Raquel was very worried for Kaldur despite the calm facade she was putting up.

"Good thing we found a pond." Jason handed the bottle to Raquel who dipped the water down Kaldur's throat. She put the back of her hand against his forehead. "He's cooling down, he should be fine." she said with a smile.

"That's great! Once he wakes up he can eat this awesome fruit we found." Robin handed one to Raquel, "You should try one Rocket!"

"I am not eating some nasty fruit you found in the back of a cave!" she said pushing the fruit back.

"Suit yourself." Robin said as he took another bite out of his fruit.

Jason sighed and looked at the starry sky. "Now is a good time to get some rest. Robin how about you take the first watch?"

"Roger that captain!"

"I'm so happy you said because I have been dying to get some shut-eye all day." Raquel yawned, "G'night guys." She walked to the other side of the side took off her jacket and used it as a pillow. Before you knew you could hear her soft breathing.

Jason didn't waste anytime either and found the softest bit of rock in the cave to lay down on. Gradually, everything around him got dark and he faded into a dreamless sleep.

I had a lot of trouble writing Aqualad's character and I think Jason might be a little OOC, so sorry. Next chapter will be on Percy's group and they're doing right now.

Comment if you enjoyed this! A new chapter will be up hopefully in less than 2 weeks!
