"Talk about a celebration," luke said smacking percy's arm, there were fireworks and kids cheering over at camp "they really pulled put all the stops for you,"luke said with a smile"you finally have your glory, kid" Priscilla said putting her arm around percy's shoulder"

"Come on, you've said like two words since we left the cabins," luke said as percy was suspiciously quite for one"just thinking about what the oracle said, that i'll fail to save what matters most in the end," percy said as the stopped by some ruins"you're thinking about your mom?" Luke asked as percy nodded his head"

"I get that," he added"believe me i do," luke said again putting down his lantern on a stone"but prophecies, those thing are so vague," Priscilla said with a disgusted look all over her face as she sat down on a rock"the quest is over, and everything the oracle said has either come true or makes sense," percy said"

"Has it?" Luke said tilting his head a little," you shall go west and face the god who has turned," percy said repeating the oracle"ares, okay," luke said"

"Find what was stolen and see it returned," percy said again"clearly the master bolt," luke said resisting it"and you shall be betrayed...by the one who calls you friend," percy said, luke and Priscilla could see it on his face, the realization"

"The moment percy said the last sentence of the oracle, Priscilla stood up and went to stand next to luke"well, the reason clarisse is still here is because...you never said anything to chiron about her," percy said with a hatred look on his face, luke let out a silent what with an innocent look on his face"

You couldn't...because you knew clarrise didn't steal the bolt. You two did," percy said finally realizing, Priscilla had a vague smile on her face with the cold look in her eyes"

"You two worked with ares to plant it on me, that's why he trusted you? Priscilla, how could you?" Percy said as Priscilla raised and eyebrow with a smile on her face"so when the shoes that you gave me pulled me into tarturas, the bolt would be delivered right to kronos, but priscilla had to pretend to care...so she saved me and grover," percy said is it was all coming in"

"I didn't think you would give 'em to grover to wear," luke said as percy looked shocked at his words"we are your friends, percy, none of this was meant to betray you," luke said as Priscilla walked a bit closer"

"The gods are our enemy,"Priscilla said in a whisper"you...i'm here to recruit," luke said taking a step closer to priscilla as percy took a few steps back"

"Recruit?"

"Luke and Priscilla took out there swords and percy didn't think to long before doing the same"easy, i don't wanna fight. This is what i wanted to show you," luke said sticking out his hand"

"This is our way out," luke said as Priscilla glared at him"way out of what?"percy said, Priscilla turned back to him as percy stood in a fighting position"

"Luke spoke out a small word in ancient greek as a blue line appeared on a ruin and the part of a portal opened between others"back biter can open secret doors, we can stay on the run as long as it takes," luke said as percy still stood ready with his sword"

"Stop saying"we!"percy said as Priscilla tilted her head"cilla, how could you," percy said as Priscilla lifted up her shoulders"you've seen where my mom is, the gods don't care if you live or die," Priscilla said pointing her sword towards the portal"

"This is our way back to our own lives," she said as percy's face dropped to even more anger"we, it's the word zeus fears the most, the gods want us to fight for them, worship them, fear them! And they couldn't care less what we want," luke said shaking his head"

"They're bad parents, percy and they've gotten away with it for far too long," luke said as Percy shook his head"no, this is kronos...he got to you. To both of you!" Percy said pointing at Priscilla when he spoke the last sentence"

"No, he opened my eyes to the truth," Priscilla and luke said, they weren't regretting their words atleast not at the moment"the golden age, that's what they called it when he ruled," luke said making another line in the ruin as another part of the portal opened"

"We're gonna help kronos bring the golden age back, the three of us," luke said as percy kept shaking his head"stealing the bolt and the helm was easy, for what comes next...we're gonna need all the help we can get," luke added as percy's eyes were filled with fear and anger"

"As luke was about to put the last line on the ruin percy stopped him as he pointed his sword right at luke and Priscilla"our parents aren't perfect, but they're doing their best," percy said as Priscilla and luke raised their swords"

"I met your dad," percy said as luke's face turned to anger, percy went to far and he had declared the biggest fight yet"

"As luke attacked percy a fight broke out, 2 against one, luke stopped percy for a second almost complementing him on how he got better but percy soon attacked, as percy turned around luke made the last line on the ruin as the portal opened up"

"Percy turned back for a second as he saw the portal getting stronger, Priscilla kicked percy closer to the ruin, hoping he would get sucked into the portal but percy kept fighting"

"Last chance," luke said pointing his sword at percy but that didn't work, percy didn't hesitate"

"As percy ran forward he pushed luke back and in the moment of heat priscilla jumped in to protect luke, percy had cut her in her side but the boy didn't hesitate to apologize"

"I'm sorry, i-" percy said but he couldn't finish his sentence as luke attacked, luke was now furious"

"Percy attacked the girl luke loved most and that's where it all went down, as luke attacked percy. He fell on the ground with a cut in his arm, percy started sliding back as Priscilla and luke stepped closer. Luke held the sword over percy as so did priscilla"

"As luke was about to attack there was a noise in the woods and something was thrown at them, it was annabeth who was invisible the whole time"

"Annabeth?" Luke said in disbelief as Priscilla looked at her with tears in her eyes"i...heard everything," Annabeth said as luke stared at her for e few seconds before him and Priscilla and Priscilla started running"

"As luke jumped into the portal priscilla stopped for a few seconds, looking at the two kids she called family, before she jumped in she said one last word"

"Sorry,"

The end!
