Annabeth's POV

I whipped around, coming face to face with a chuckling Zeta.

Wait wait wait. A/N Waiting... Zeta. Is. Chuckling?! I thought he was emotionless and shrude... like Slytherin. I didn't know he was actually HUMAN?! Like wth?

Anyways, Zeta seeing my shocked expression, responded coolly saying;

"Oh come now, you didn't actually think I was heartless/emotionless and not a human did you?"

"I ummm uhh..." I replied ever so smartly

"Haha! Of course you did!" And with that he just fell back into a fit of giggles.

"What's so funny?" I asked hotly; as if I was saying you better stop it or else...

"Nothing, nothing. Just the fact that your conversation with Thalia was quite amusing if I must say so myself."

That was when I noticed something. Zeta doesn't know Thalia!

Zeta's POV

"How do you know Thalia's name? We never introduced ourselves!" Annabeth said suspiciously.

Oh Styx. I'm in for it now...

"I asked a camper. They said you were Annabeth Chase and that she was Thalia Grace. You guys seem to be respectable figures in this camp's history it looks like." I replied quickly.

"Hmmm. Well okay then..." She said with uncertainty. It was obvious she didn't believe me.

"Uhm... well... I came to ask what was wrong with camp? Everyone seems a bit down in the dumps today?" I asked awkwardly.

I knew I hit a sore spot when I saw Annabeth's face. If I was the old naïve Percy, I would have cared. But now that I am Zeta, I could care less.

"Today is the 10th anniversary of the day my boyfriend, Percy Jackson disappeared." She said sadly.

"Who is this 'Percy Jackson' you and the campers seem so fond of?" I asked partially curious of why everyone was so upset.

Then, she drove into the depths of my life story. Like pfft. It's not like I need to know how awesome I am for the 10000th time.

Then she came to the sore spot. The time after the Second Giant War.

"...and then everything changd. It all started when a new egotistical camper showed up. His name was Drake. Drake was a son of Poseidon, half-brother of Percy. He tricked the whole camp, as well as the gods, by framing Percy for crimes he did not commit. In a sense, Percy was driven out of camp by Drake; but the real reason he left was because I cheated on him with his gorgon half-brother Drake. I re-" She was interrupted by the sound of a Conch shell.

It rung 3 times, that means only one thing.

Camp was under attack.

Annabeth's POV

To say Commander Zeta was good was an understatement.

Ok nevermind. That was a huge understatement.

When I arrived half the monsters were already defeated. But surprisingly, not by the campers. No, the campers were just gaping in awe at the Chaos Army.

The army was amazing at fighting, but the person the crowd was really watching was Zeta.

Zeta was literally a blur. A battle demon, some would say.

The campers and I were stunned. We had never seen anyone fight that well. Not even Percy could.

I was pulled out of my thoughts when the last monster was killed. And now here we were standing in front of the titans, Prometheus, Hyperion, and Kronos.

Oh Styx we are in trouble...

Zeta's POV

Kick, dodge, slash, block. Those were my thoughts when I was fighting. That and of course, how in Chaos I got into this mess.

It turns out I wasn't paying attention to the fight in general, until I noticed that the only enemies left on the battlefield were Prometheus, Hyperion, and Kronos.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here? Demigods that are actually worth my time?" Kronos sneered, yet you could tell he was a bit weary.

"We are not demigods, foolish Titan. We are the Omicron Devision of the Army of Chaos. And we are here to send and banish you to the void." I said keeping up my cold demeanor.

"More fight, less talk." That insolent Hyperion said.

"As you wish, Army attack!" I commanded.

I took Kronos while Luke took Hyperion. Bianca and Silena took Prometheus, as the others just watched in amusement.

I made quick work of Kronos, by easily feinting to his left (my right), doing an uppercut to his chin, and cutting a long, deep gash into his thigh, all before he could even lift a muscle.

Then I started chanting in Ancient Greek;

Έχω Ζέτα, μπορείτε να εξορίσει, Κρόνος στο κενό για το υπόλοιπο του χρόνου. Είθε η ψυχή σου να γίνει ένα με το Χάος και ποτέ δεν βλάπτει πάλι μια άλλη ψυχή.

A/N translation: I Zeta, banish you, Kronos to the void for the rest of time. May your soul become one with Chaos and never harm another soul again.

Once they got the other titans injured enough, I repeated the same chant, with that respective Titan's name rather than Kronos.

When we turned around to face the campers, I immediately regretted it.

What in the name of my father are we going to do now...

Another chapter bites the dust guys! And on another note, I realized every chapter ends with a dreadful cliffhanger! :D Yay for cliffhangers! ...Cricket...
