After awhile of walking, the diner was finally in sight. The four of you walked into the diner, heads looking around in search of a certain god. A great cackle from one of the tables caught you attention, there he was.
"Guess this is the right place" Percy commented before the four walked up to the table, the man's laughter was cut short when he noticed your presence. "Gimme a second, I'm just starting a fight on Twitter here" He asked, the group sat down infront of him, squashed into a small booth. "Nothing makes me happier than a good old fashioned, burn-it-down fight." Ares laughed while still focused on his phone.
"Ah. Okay, done" The god said before looking at the group, "So your quest is going to fail. Ask me how I know" He informed with enthusiasm. "It isn't gonna fail" Percy argued, "Sure it is" The man chuckled. "For starters.." He spoke while pulling out his phone, there was a man on the news talking about someone. "But I never thought he was capable of something like this." The unknown man spoke.
"Who's that?" You questioned, "My stepdad. What's he doing?" Percy answered. "Wait for it" Ares replied, the video carried on with an interviewer asking the man questions. "You believe he may also have had something to do with your wife's disappearance?" The interviewer inquired, "A kid that messed up? Why wouldn't he do" Percy's stepdad scoffed.
Your mouth hung open from the accusations, "What?" Percy scoffed. "Wild, right?" Ares grinned, "The FBI is already spreading your picture around" He added with the same enthusiasm. "It's a Camaro. I really— We really loved that car" Percy's stepdad sobbed, "So much" He added.
"I'm gonna kill him." Percy muttered, "I knew I was gonna like you. But safe to say, the chances of you four idiots hitchhiking the rest of the way to L.A. without getting arrested are slim to none" Ares informed. "Why are you sitting here then?" Annabeth questioned, "If your supposed to be looking for the master bolt too, shouldn't you be out there looking for it?"
"Hm. There's no fear in you, is there?" The man asked, Annabeth only shook her head. "Doesn't matter. Whether the bolt's retrieved or not, Zeus is going to war with Poseidon." Ares claimed, all four of you looked at each other with confusion. "No. The Oracle said if we return the bolt, there wouldn't be war" Percy stated, "Is that what she said? Or is that what Chiron said she meant?" Ares replied.
Ares sighed at Percy's silence, "You're new to the family, young one, so let me fill you in on how we work. See, years before I was born, my grandpa Kronos ate my aunts and uncles. Then my dad made him puke them back up, then chopped them into a million pieces and chucked them into a bottomless pit, so that kinda set the tone right outta the gate." He explained in more detail then you wanted.
"Olympians fight. We betray. We backstab. We will push anyone down a flight of stairs to get ahead" He continued, "And that's why I love my family so much". You stared at the man blank, still trying to process everything. "My dad knows he's not getting his bolt back with quests or goose chases. He knows there's a war coming, and in reality, I think he's okay with that." Ares commented. "I think he feels it's just time for a war, so we're gonna have a war" .
