Chapter 25: Mother of Dragons 

Luke 

Bradley made a surprisingly good fighting partner.  Luke knew the son of Zeus was a good soldier, he had no doubt of that, but he hadn't expected to make a good team with him.  The two of them complimented each other's fighting style, but Luke realized that was because Bradley fought exactly like his sister.

Bradley sent a massive lightning bolt through the monsters' ranks.  Luke created two water fists, grabbed a handful of monsters, and tossed them into the river.  The two boys cut through the ranks with their fellow soldiers behind them.  Luke saw one of his own take a spear to the heart.  Anger exploded through him.  He charged at the monster but it was blown away before he even reached it.

Bradley whistled. "Damn Jackson.  How are you doing that?"

Luke looked down to see what he meant.  Clouds swirled around him like a hurricane.  It was a hurricane, he realized, albeit a miniature one.  Luke grinned and said, "I have no idea how I'm doing this."

"Keep doing it!  Let's keep-" Bradley halted in his speech.  He'd been smiling before but now he was beaming. "Looks like Plan Phoenix is in the works.  Hold them here for a while.  I and my siblings will be back ASAP!  Daenerys is calling."

Bradley hopped onto his Pegasus and flew off.  Luke grumbled something about the Winchesters being way too cryptic for their own good and wondering who the hell Daenerys was.  He went back to fighting against the enemy.  Every time Luke killed one monster, two seemed to take its place.  He felt him and his army slowly being pushed back across the bridge, slowly losing any progress they had made previously.

That changed however when a deafening screech filled the air.  Everyone covered their ears in an attempt to block their ear drums from bursting, but the screech permeated through that effort.  Luke looked up to see what was causing the horrendous noise when he saw flames erupting on the other side of the bridge.  Screams erupted from the enemies as this jet of fire flew above them.  The fire stopped a few feet away from Luke and he had to blink a few times to make sure he was seeing things correctly.  Once it registered in Luke's brain what it actually was that he was staring at, he understood Bradley's Daenerys comment.  A massive black dragon, with hints of red in its coloring, flew above the battle.  Its rider was a familiar daughter of Zeus.

Luke laughed at little as he saw the monsters screaming in terror at the winged shadow above them.  Bryn was turning the dragon around so she could send another wave of fire.  The monsters that had missed the first wave were stringing their bows with arrows.  Luke wasn't going to let them hurt Bryn or the dragon.

Luke raised his sword above his head and shouted, "Romans, charge!"

Bryn 

The world below her was chaos.  Monsters were panicking because they were either getting killed by fire or getting slaughtered by the Roman legion and Luke.  The latter was a blur.  He was moving so fast she could barely keep an eye on him, a serious problem when she was trying to make sure he didn't get himself killed.

Hannah's army, while a good ten times larger than the demigod one, could not hold against the might of three dragons and the wrath of the demigods.  But Bryn knew Hannah had tricks up her sleeves, deadly tricks.  Tricks that could easily kill thirty demigods in one go.  That trick came about three hours into battle when Bryn saw Luke hop onto Ace and fly over the Hudson River.  Curious to know what he was up to, she followed him.  He kept his eyes trained on the water, searching for something.  But this was the Hudson, nothing was visible.  That is until a drakon flung itself upward at Luke and Ace, trying to clamp its jaws shut around them.  The two barely managed to swerve out of the way.
