Zoe pov (finally)
I have been driving this truck for a while now before it breaks down in roughly were we need to be. when we get out I say "one of thy needs to catch Nerseus to ask a question" prompting everyone to turn to Perseus.
"alright fine how do I will I find and catch him?" He asks
"thee will need to dress as a homeless person to not raise suspicion and to find him just look for thou smell it will be different than regular homeless person smell and to catch him thy just need to hold him long enough till he admits defeat." I say handing him some old rags I took up.
After he changes we watch holding in laughs as he trys to subdue Nerseus. eventually Nerseus finally gave in prompting us to walk forward.
"where is the creature Artemis was hunting" I hear Perseus ask.
Nerseus just laughs "really that's what you wanted to know that is easy its right there" he says pointing out into the water. he quickly yanks himself away and jumps into the water leaving. when we look towards where he pointed I saw the Ophiotaurus and I face palmed how could I have been so stupid.
"this is what Artemis was hunting but that is what brought Percy to me" Thalia says.
"so that is why he is here" a voice says we turn around to see the manticore and some human soldiers. we go to grab our weapons before the manticore says "if you take out your weapons I'll kill him like I wanted to." Thorn says pointing his tail at Perseus.
"don't you dare" Thalia snarls.
"oh my dear we need your help. kill the Ophiotaurus it will give you the power to destroy the gods." Thorn says smirking.
I see Thalia's eyes clouding over at the prospect of power Perseus seeing the same says "Thalia snap out of it do you really want to help Kronos." that statement unclouded Thalia's eyes and I smell ozone before a ray of lightning hot the manticore killing him and spreads out to the humans knocking them unconscious.
"woah Thalia that was amazing." Perseus says.
"that- that wasn't me. I guess my father does care." Thalia says murmuring the last part.
"come one you guys need to go. I'll take the Ophiotaurus back to camp to keep it safe" Grover says pulling their attention.
"yeah but there is no way we will get there by sundown without a car." I say. Perseus, Thalia, and Annabeth look at each other before Thalia says
"actually there is a way to get a car."
