Night had captured the world, the songs of the birds had been replaced with the hooting of owls, the wind blew the grass into a gentle sway like a slow dance in a ball room. Both camps had been silent for hours now not a soul was awake to hear the sound of fast approaching footsteps. Now these footsteps weren't those of a large group in fact it only seemed that there were three sets. They were quiet but yet still able to have been heard by those who were listening, either night it seems that they're approach would not be missed even if they were this quiet. Three hooded figures stood upon the big house roof looking over Camp Half Blood as though they were Eagles and what lay inside the cabins was their prey, accompanied with the night sky the three strangers would not have been recognised by anyone for it was impossible for anyone to see who they were. Let alone predict their intentions. The figures looking towards one another in a silent conversation rendered any hand gestures or actual words useless for their new exactly what the others were trying to say. One of them used The Shadows to leap across towards the east end of the camp, another went towards the West and the last stood atop the big house taking a step back so that the trees in front cover their identity. One by one the mysterious figures raised their hands with a sharp Flick of their wrists hords of Monsters began flooding the area. the horrendous screeching sound rattled through the air waking every camper from their slumber. It was good to anyone if they'd look to the demigod spaces that fear was all they could think of. One would assume the Olympians would take Better Care in protecting their children, especially considering what happened to three of the bravest. They hadn't had any monsters breach the barrier for a good while and if the demigods were being completely honest with themselves it seemed that the protections were holding strong. Noone could have expected this. Annabeth Chase led the charge using her sword to slice any monster then came close, the other more experienced campers followed her example sliding and shooting at all the monsters in their sight. Even Though they were good and well trained it seemed that the Monsters were better and soon got the upper hand. The demigods began backing up towards the water unsure of what to do. Suddenly as if they had heard their silent prayers the big three flashed in between the demigods and the monsters. It was clear to everyone at that moment that the monsters did not expect the big three to show up to defend the demigods for many of the monsters drew backwards debating their next move but as always they were filled with blood lust and began ponching once more as more of the olympians showed up. The fight was over in minutes,the demigods just stood there as they looked at their parents. Tears were left in the younger demigods eyes, as the event had quite shaken them up, the events of the prior wars had been told to them by the older demigods it was no secret that those events scared the older children however the stories had to be kept alive not only for the safety of the younger demigods but also to remember the fallen. All those who had died in those horrid events. It was known that they didn't share any of the horrific details as the younger demigods didnt need those in their minds as they slept. The olympians looked at one another with exhaustion and relief in their eyes, a slight sniffing caught their attention and they looked towards their trembling kids. Some were trembling due to fear, others the cold and the rest a poisonous mixture of both. They walked over to try to make the fear leave the children's eyes. Apollo lifted his youngest child into his arms,who had only been in the camp for a year and three months. Running his finger in his hair he hushed all his children making sure they knew that he was not going to let anything happen to them. All the other olympians did the same comforting their young ones. It was thank you to percy jackson who made this possible, he gave up his witch so that all the demigods get claimed but also that the gods could freely visit their children in the camp as they pleased. The three masked warriors watched the interaction unfold, jealousy flooding through their veins, all together they jumped from their perches so silently that no one noticed them until a small child of Aphrodite called out. "Mama"she yelled looking at the three figures with a horror stricken expression. They didn't draw their weapons, instead they just stood there staring at the demigods. The olympians moved in front of their children having now noticed the threat. "Who are you?"Zeus thundered, pointing his lightning bolt at the three. Silence. Not a single syllable escaped their lips. "Did you not hear my brother, who are you?"Hades questioned leaving his wife's side, Persephone and Ampitrite had joined their husbands in this fight as well. The figures looked at one another then towards the Olympians surprised that Hades was aiding his brother. "Messengers." The one in the middle said his voice quiet but just loud enough for the Olympians to hear.
"Messengers don't attack children."Ares yelled in anger. "Who says they were with us?"the one on the left said and this one was female. The seven had been watching the figures closely and it was Annabeth who noticed that on their hoods was the logo that the olympians were talking about on it. "You must be,"she began, causing the figure to turn their attention to her, "the symbols on your cloaks match the ones that we have been seeing after every monster attack." At her statement they all looked at the figure's cloaks, indeed she was right they did have the same logo which didn't sit right with the olympians. Those voices seemed so familiar but yet they couldn't seem to place where they had heard them from. "Anyway we didn't mean to cause you such trouble,"the last one said, who was also a boy, in an almost mocking tone "but we need to get going. Enjoy." Once the last word left his mouth he waved his hand and they were surrounded by darkness and shadows. Once the darkness cleared they were gone and in their wake were three items. One was a three foot long black sword,a celestial bronze spear and a ballpoint pen. The weapons of the big three children. Everyone's hearts sank, it couldn't be possible why were their weapons here. All eyes turned to the big three. Their wives were standing next to one another just looking at the item in shock. The big three stepped forward and picked up the weapon that belonged to their respective child. They shared an understanding glance. "Right for the time being all demigods from both camps are to redis on olympus. It is clear they aren't safe at the moment. Each cabin will be living with their respective parents for the moment." Zeus said. Normally both campers and Olympians would be jumping for joy but in light of recent events they were more thankful that they could be with one another and make sure nothing bad happens.
