They had gotten a lot less than they hoped for with the whole bus situation. There was a few people there, but they were all part of some heavy metal band and were playing really loud and disturbing music. It wasn't even a normal bus, either. It was one of those big cars from the seventies. Ares was stupid. If you're gonna get somebody bus tickets for a really long drive, shouldn't you at least make sure it's a regular bus and not some heavy metal death trap?

Leo sat by the Hazel statue. They had gotten some strange looks from the band members when they walked in with her, but they still let them ride them ride the 'bus.'

"It's gotta be Bacchus in Kanas," Jason said.

"We're going all the way to Kanas to deal with Mr.D?" Percy asked, " that's stupid."

"The last time we were in Kanas Percy and Jason got in a little...um... fight," Piper whispered.

"Oh I remember that," Leo said from the seat in front of her," weren't you possessed by eidolons?"

Jason nodded grimly.

As the heavy metal band played about death, Leo noticed something weird about the guitarist. His tongue was forked like a snake's. He stuck it way out like rock band people did.

Leo tapped leaned over stone Hazel and tapped Annabeth on the shoulder.

"We have to leave," he whispered.

She gave him a questionable look.

He pointed to the guitarist. When she noticed, Annabeth nodded then whispered something to Percy. Percy turned around to the next seat and said something to Frank. Soon all the demigods had noticed the snake guy, and they all had their hands on their weapons.

Jason got up and walked up to the band like he was about to give them money for the 'great show,' but instead he took his sword to the snake guy. The other demigods leaped out of their seats behind them, weapons drawn.

The snake guy feel to the floor, wounded but not dead yet.

"What are you doing?!!!!" the lead singer dropped his microphone and stood up in front if Jason.

"I saw his tongue," Jason said, " your secret is out."

"Secret?!" The drummer yelled," our guitarist has a misshapen tongue! He was born with it! He's a person!"

"We're calling the cops," a guy holding a tambourine said, pulling out his phone.

All of a sudden, a bang erupted through the bus, and everyone turned to see a guy with a pistol, and he had just shot the guitarist.

The drummer screamed and punched open the window, then jumped out and ran, but was shot in the process.

The demigods watched in shock as the band members dropped like flies. A bang from the gun could be heard every 5 seconds, along with terrified screams from the 2 remaining band members. The demigods just stood in the back of the bus, paralyzed with fear. But it seamed like it was the band members the gun guy was going for.

"We promise we won't hurt the demigods," the tambourine guy yelled from behind the dead lead singer.

"Yeah!" A backup singer shrieked," please don't hurt us.

The gun man shot the backup singer.

The tambourine guy ran whimpered right before being shot. The gun man turned to the demigods, who were all in the back with their hands up.

"Well," the gun man said, " that was fun. It's been a while since I got to do that!" he dropped the gun and took a seat.

He removed his ski mask to reveal a face that looked like Mr.D's, but cleaner and shinier .
