Luke's plan seemed to consist of more destruction than it seemed that he had even realized. He only looked like a madman with the ways he was trying to recruit his friends. Annabeth looked frightened and tired. Thalia looked as if she had just lost someone for good. Percy looked conflicted and Rhaenyra? She just looked as if she desperately was ready for a strawberry milkshake and some french fries.
But it seemed like it would be an entire lifetime before she got her wish.
It seemed as if this was it. That this would be the moment that seemingly all of these schizophrenic teenagers would die by an army that their mind had somehow conjured up. An army of mythological monsters that hadn't been spoken of in centuries. Unless they had been dosed with fentanyl. Maybe this was some stupid dream they were having while they were overdosing. That had to be it... right?
But whether this was really happening or if this was a dream, Rhaenyra knew they needed to take some sort of action. She wasn't exactly sure of what she could do to help, but despite the fact her body was crying out in pain and her mind was racing at four-hundred-miles per-minute, she knew she had to do something. Even if this was all fake, and Rhaenyra was right about her theory of drugs or schizophrenia, she'd never live with herself for not doing anything if this was real.
There was no time to waste. If that army got to the top of the hill, they would be overwhelmed. The demigods wouldn't stand a chance. Percy met Annabeth's eyes again. She nodded at him, as if confirming some sort of secret plan. Rhaenyra glanced painfully at Thalia and Zoe, and Percy decided it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to die fighting with friends like this.
There was a moment of silence, Rhaenyra's eyes beginning to glow as everyone's grip slowly tightened on their weapons, Percy had a look of pure determination on his face before he gave the signal, "Now."
Together, they charged.
Thalia went straight for Luke, the bitter taste of betrayal thick on her tongue. The power of her shield was so great that his dragon women bodyguards fled in a panic before she even got within a feet of Luke, dropping the golden coffin and leaving him alone. But despite his sickly appearance, Luke was still quick with his sword. He snarled like a wild animal and counterattacked, what a fury.
