"They will because in less than a week the monsters will start killing kids at the Roman camp. While the monsters in Tartarus will eat the ones being held down there. So go back to Artemis and get to Olympus, I'll be waiting at The highest mountain in the St. Elias mountains that border Alaska and Canada. Now go before my family gets restless and decides to have a snack." I didn't look at Thalia as I walked inside, but I could hear her leaving in a hurry as I smirked. "Like taking candy from a group of overgrown babies. How did both Gaea and Kronos not succeed at this?" I went upstairs and to my bedroom, laying down I went to sleep as I dreamt about the day on Olympus. The day I was killed by the gods.

~~3RD POV~~
~~Two days later~~

   On the highest mountain, on the border of Alaska and Canada stood a tall figure in a pitch black cloak with a hood pulled up covering the figures face in darkness. He was standing on the Alaskan side with a standard campfire in front of the figure, as the being stood there, watching the fire several flashes started to appear. Once the flashes stopped the being didn't look up as it continued watching the fire. "You know, most people have a love/hate relationship with fire. They love it when it warms them up, cooks their food, heats their drinks, and all that. But, they also hate it when it "gets out of control" and either starts to burn forests, their homes, or if they get burned. Yet fire is essential to everything, fire is needed in some forests to remove old trees so that new ones may grow, fire can bring new life and it can also destroy life if not taken care of properly." The being finally looked up, once it did blood red eyes glowed from the pitch black covering Lucifer's face. He looked into Hestia's eyes as he continued talking "fire can bring families together, but can also tear them apart. Am I correct lady Hestia?" The goddess nodded quietly as she stared back at Lucifer.

   "Why are we here Lucifer? Why all the way out here in the cold? Near the land beyond the gods." Athena asked as Lucifer pulled off his hood, revealing hi wolf-ish face with humanoid features. "Because you have no power here, the cold will distract your mind if you try to engage me in hand to hand. As for the reason for this meeting, well I've been informed that Artemis has done what I told her to do." The gods nodded as Hermes spoke up "How do you know of everything that is going on? Even being the messenger of the gods I don't know everything." Lucifer chuckled softly as he looked at the god. "I don't know everything about what is going on at both camps and the throne room, but I know a lot. Also, I must keep some mystery around me, so I won't tell you everything but I will tell you that my family has a way of being quiet and getting into places others can't."

The gods were obviously not happy with Lucifer's response but he didn't care as he looked back down at the fire. "Before we get any more off topic, you said that soon the monsters at the Roman camp will start killing our children instead of knocking them out and hurting them badly. Why have they not been killing them before?" Poseidon asked as he stepped forward to which the gods agreed and asked similar questions. "Because they are getting tired of not being able to eat some demigods. Soon they will go against my orders and start killing them. The other reason they haven't been is because you all would've tried to kill me if your kids were being killed. I'm not about killing innocent people, but all of you, that's a whole different story."

Lucifer didn't wait for them to respond as he looked around them before continuing. "So, you will either surrender Olympus to me or your children die slowly. Since I can't take all of you on at once I will also raise the giants and some titans to forcibly make you surrender Olympus to me. So which is it? The easy way or the hard way Olympians?" Lucifer asked but wasn't looking at them as he stared off into the distance behind them. The gods were silent for a while before Zeus spoke up, "How about a wager? You battle me and Poseidon in a one V two, if you manage to knock at least one of us out. We will surrender Olympus to you, agreed?" Lucifer thought for a few moments before looking Zeus dead in the eyes with a smirk on his face. "Sounds like you got yourself a deal lord Zeus, I'll see you all on Olympus in two days."
