"HE SAID NO MAIMING. NONE."

"The first team to retrieve the opposing flag and return it across the river shall be the victor. As always there will be no maiming and no killing. I trust these rules will be respected." Chiron spoke to all of the campers.

"He said no maiming Clarisse. None! How are you gonna win now?" June yelled across the river, smirking.

"Shut up, shadow girl." Clarisse yelled back. June actually did shut up. She'd save it for when they won, but she looked at Percy and saw the confusion on his face and stepped back.

"Any magical items you may possess are permitted as well, every camper who is not injured..." Chiron continued.

Percy looked down at his riptide which was what Chiron gave to him when they first met outside of camp.

"It's okay," Luke said behind him. "Let her rip."

"I still don't even know what my job is." Percy whispered back. "Maybe I won't even need a sword."

"Oh you're gonna need it." June said, looking straight on.

"Let the games begin." The conch shell blew and the red team let out a loud battle cry, some banged their armor.

"I'm gonna need a sword." Percy said. Looking at June and groaning. June laughed.

"All right. We have 20 minutes before the second conch and game-on. You know what you're doing?" Annabeth walked up to them and asked Luke.

"Yes maam." Luke said starting to walk off but Annabeth stopped him.

"Hey. Today feel like a winning kind of day to you?" Annabeth asked Luke with pride.

"I'll see you on the other side." Luke smiled and walked away.

"I'll see you too." June added herself in and walked away with Luke. Nodding at Annabeth then looking at Percy.

"Company! Move out!" Luke yelled to the other campers on their team. Percy was going to follow with them but Annabeth stopped him.

"Not you, sunshine. You're with me." She told Percy as they walked away together.

June watched the two walk away and pressed her lips together, turning to Luke and talking to him.

"Do you think he'll be okay?" June asked Luke.

"He's with Annabeth. He'll be fine. Just stick to your plan." Luke reassured her, June nodded and followed them.

"IM SORRY, YOULL DO GREAT THOUGH!"

June was fighting off other campers with Luke and the rest of their team, and doing a hell of a good job at it too.

Luke had his sword drawn at the red team leaders face and she groaned.

"We give up." She said, as Luke put his sword away.

"I wanna move quick. Straight through the woods to their flag." Luke told June.

"Clarisse hunts in those woods for the first few hours, you know that. She's gonna cut us down." Chris told Luke and June.

"Annabeths got a plan. Percy's on it." Luke told Chris and Chris immediately sighed as if to say they were screwed. June looked around and sighed.

"I can't. I have to do this." June started walking backwards towards where Annabeth left Percy.

"June! Stick to you and annabeths plan!" Luke yelled out.

"I'm sorry! You'll do great though!!" June said while running.

"I thought you knew June." Chris told Luke.

"I do."

"Then you should've known she wouldn't stick to any type of plan." Chris laughed.

"GODS CANT YOU JUST LEAVE HIM?"

June found Percy he was lying on a log, his eyes closed.

"So I see you working hard." June said, crossing her arms and standing a next to him.

"Why did she just leave me here?" Percy sat up and sighed.

"Look Annabeth is smart. Okay she left you here for a reason." June sighed.

"Okay, reason yeah what reason?" Just as Percy said that the worst possible thing happend. Clarisse and her goons showed up. June got into combat position but Percy just stood up in alert.

"Flags that way. It's not here." Percy said.

"We know." Clarisse shrugged. Percy looked at her with confusion. "Yeah, glory's fine. Revenge is more fun." June rolled her eyes at Clarisse as Clarisse stomped her spear onto the ground and it lit up.

"No maiming. it's like the one rule." Percy said as June had his back.

"Percy, Clarisse doesn't like rules because she thinks she's the best." June looked at Clarisse over Percy's shoulder.

"I guess I'll lose desert privileges for a while..." Clarisse said, stepping up to Percy. "I'll live."

Just as said, Clarisse had swatted her spear towards Percy but he dodged it. June was able to help fend off one of the others but one of them was able to cut Percy on his arm. Clarisse drew her spear to Percy's armor which made him fall over the log.

"I'm actually not interested in maiming or killing you, believe it or not." Clarisse said.

"Then what are you trying to do?!" June exclaimed at her. Jumping over the log to help Percy up.

"I just want him to admit he's a fraud. It'd make me feel better. Are you feeling up to that yet?" Clarisse asked Percy.

Percy ran, June didn't want to run she wanted to fight...but instead she followed Percy.

"Guess that's a no." Clarisse and her goons followed after them.
