Celestial was leading the Wraiths and demi-gods to Chicago. To Rubio Woods, specifically. There was an especially large amount of adamantine there, and it could be used for the best of weapons, armor, and possibly, bait. She knew her old crew would still be stubborn and try to locate the rare metal. So off they were, leading the Wraiths and demi-gods. Since she was a higher rank than James or the snobbish sisters, she could tell everyone who could do what.

"Jessica! Set up the tents! Elizabeth, start to make the food for the demi-gods. James! Go clean up the area," She ordered them all. Sure, it was a bit petty, but it was the little things that mattered the most. They all angrily agreed, knowing they would get in trouble if they didn't, and started to set up camp.

Once she had her own tent to herself, she carefully unzipped her backpack and opened up her notebook.

Step 4- Complete, she scribbled on the page and checked off the box. She reviewed her plan, and caught a flaw in it. Right! How could I forget?

She cast a protective barrier spell on her backpack so only she could open it, along with an even stronger one around her notebook. That way, when Step 5 and above happened, no one would be snooping around. She let out a contented sigh and stood up, pushing away the tarp. The demi-gods were chatting, talking about how nervous or excited they were to fight their first battle. She scowled at them.

"I'm sorry, did you all mean to sign up for a gossip club? If so, Camp Half Blood is that way," she said, angrily pointing towards the director New York was. The chattering instantly stopped. Everyone mumbled an apology, knowing what would happen if they didn't listen to her orders. In less than five minutes, she was watching them train for battle, correcting their movements and their weaponry.

"Hey Moon Girl! How about you show us yourself?" She heard Jessica taunt from the side of the field. She let out a disgusted sigh and turned to the raven haired girl. Suddenly, a whizzing spear was aimed straight towards her head. She caught it, and redirected it towards Jessica, it hitting just a few inches above her shoulder and piercing a tree.

"Hah! Missed!" Jessica taunted. Celestial gave her a cool look before dangerously waving her hands, which were now glowing.

"I wasn't aiming for you," She said cooly, and Jessica turned to see the tree start to splinter and crack, ready to make Jessica a pancake. The girl screamed, and covered her head with her arms, only to find that she was completely fine. The tree was levitating, a silvery mist lacing it as Celestial waved her hands ominously.

"Watch you tongue, Jessica," She said darkly, before re entering her tent.

A sharp pain stabbed her in the stomach and she looked down to see a red liquid oozing out, soiling her clothes. Argh, not again, she thought bitterly. She held up her hand, which was glowing silver, and pressed it to the wound. The mist was able to change it to the naked eye. Sure, it still hurt, but no one would be able to see it.

It would be about one or two days until they reached the adamantine, so she had to calculate her time to make sure everything fit in perfectly. She sat down, laid her back on the ground, and closed her eyes.

"Welcome! Welcome! You all know why you're here, so I will not explain any further. Now, there are too many demi-gods, and only a selected few will be able to become my top generals. Is everybody read?" Eris asked the demi-gods in front of her. There were about fifty so, and they had all joined the goddess of chaos's side, and now had to compete for the top spots. They all nodded, ready for the challenges to come. Or so they thought.

"Perfect! In this case, only small handful will be able to survive. Good luck," She said smoothly, before they were all teleported to a dark unknown area. Celestial could hear the howling from monsters nearby, and her heart dropped.

The first task was in Tartarus.

Celestial stat up, breathing a bit harder than before. She had been one of the many few to survive the first task, which was the only way to become general. It was part of her first step in her Plan. The place still gave her nightmares, and she shivered. Now's not the time to be afraid, she scolded herself, standing up.

In a matter of two days, step 5 would be completed, and things would take a big turn. There was a chance she could die in between; but at the end, what was the point? I already scheduled... she shook her head, not dwelling on it.
