A Crusader in Eragon

Andy Gets a Quest to Visit his Brother

It had been about a week since Andy had been claimed. It was time for capture the flag and he was siding with the Athena cabin. He liked Annabeth, also Percy he was cool. Andy had elected not to wear armor, something told him it was not his style. He was set to guard the border, and was determined to let no one through. He stood with his sword out, prepared for anything... and he was met with the entire Ares cabin.

He grinned as they showed up, just as planned. Andy had purposefully made them mad so they were all lured to him. He had called Ares "A useless war hungry piece of shit god that had no business being an olympian," So that got them riled up. Then Chaos broke loose, the Ares campers lunged at him, some music seemed to start playing- A mix between swing and dubstep- and Andy moved like nothing could describe, it was like a mix between break dancing, swatting a fly, acrobatics, and a hyperactive goat having a seizure. And he was winning. In almost no time he had the entire Ares cabin groaning on the ground. A minute later his side was cheering, which meant that the flag had been captured.

—NYOOOOOOOOOM—

Andy was enjoying his stay at Camp. About half a year ago some new kids had showed up and went on a quest. He was fuzzy on the details but basically Gaia was waking up. And as a son of Chaos she was technically his sister. Demigod families were weird like that, Dad is Chaos itself and sis is mother earth. Anyways, he helped them make the flying ship, The Argo II. It was beautiful, and Andy liked helping. Mostly because he liked Leo, the kid was a hyperactive Genius. They were gonna leave to find Percy at some Roman version of Camp Half Blood. Honestly Andy only cared because Percy was his favorite sparring partner, and because Annabeth would kill him if he said anything else. Either way Andy was starting to feel like something was holding him back, like there was a limit on his strength. All he could do was improve his form, and even that was starting to feel useless. He also refused to get a replacement Arm, which even he did not understand. Something about it felt wrong, like he already had the perfect replacement.

At any rate, he had enough thinking for that morning, so he got up and walked out of his cabin and immediately ran into the god of eight billion different things.

Apollo: Hello Andy.

Andy: Hi Apollo, how are you and why are you here?

Apollo: Prophesy, quest.

Andy: Fun, where do I go?

Apollo: Go talk with Rachel, I just wanted to let you know.

Andy: Bye Apollo.

Most people would freak out about the randomness of a god showing up at their front door, but Andy was all random and chaotic so he didn't mind. He just went to find Rachel in her mountain cave. He liked Rachel, she was cool. She made about as much sense as Andy's cabin and he liked that. He had barely said hello when she spat a prophecy in his face.

Rachel: The child of chaos shall venture to the depth of his heritage. The lost shall return to him at fire's hand. The army shall rise or fall to the curse's hand.

She returned to normal and blinked a couple times.

Rachel: Ah crap, prophesy?

Andy: Yep, and I think I know where I need to go.

Andy told her the prophecy, and waited for her to respond. After what felt like an eternity she finally spoke.

Rachel: Start in the underworld, I hate to say it but it sounds like you need to go to Tartarus.

Andy: My thoughts exactly, bye!

Without another word to argue, Andy got up and walked out of the cave.
