Regrettably Mine

-6-

Clarisse and I walked for another minute before yelling filled the air.

We whipped around to see Percy running towards us with his sword in hand, yelling to his teammates.
With out thinking, I threw Slaughter and it spiralled through the air. The handle whacked Percy between the eyes, and he went down. Immediately, I felt it reappear in ring form on my finger.

"Go! We've got to go!" Clarisse shouted beside me.
I tapped my ring and it elongated into a knife. More Hermes kids were running towards us now, leaving their flag unattended.

This was our chance.

I flung Slaughter and it hit one kid in the head, making him fall onto another like dominoes.

Clarisse and I made an arch around the attacking team. We were 10 metres away from the flag when I looked back.
Mason was chasing us, and he was making ground.

"Go! I'll distract them!" I yelled to Clarisse. She nodded and dashed off to the cluster of rocks that held the silver flag.

I hurled Slaughter at Mason, but he dodged. I tapped my ring again, Mason's eyes widened as he realised that I had an unlimited amount of knifes.
This time, when I threw Slaughter, I didn't throw it at his head.
I aimed and tossed my knife straight at his groin.

"Owww!" Mason crumpled to the ground. I turned and saw Clarisse with the silver flag in hand, running away from the bundle of rocks.

Behind Mason, at least 10 kids from the Blue Team were running towards Clarisse. I started running towards them when a hit to the chest knocked me down.
Mason had thrown his spear, and it had hit me on the breastplate.

"Ow! Shit!" I muttered as I fell to the ground.

In front of me, Mason began to get up. I forced my self to stand aswell, I grabbed Slaughter and gripped it in my hand tight.
Mason had somehow retrieved his spear and held it in his hand.

Spear vs Knife

I threw Slaughter and once again, it hit him in the groin. He folded instantly and cried out in pain.

I ran past him, "well that was anticlimactic." I said flatly.
Clarisse began to get overwhelmed with other campers. They started circling her, there was no way she was getting the flag over the river.
I ran behind some of the blue team while they weren't watching. I made eye contact with Clarisse, and we made a silent agreement.
She hurled the flag over their heads, and I caught it mid-air.
The opposing team were caught off guard and didn't start chasing me. I ran towards the boundary line and jumped across the river.
Winning the game.

Immediately, the silver banner rippled and changed into a angry red colour with a picture of a spear.

The conch horn blew, signalling that the red team won the game.

Cheers went up from all the red team.

I turned just as I was tackled with a hug from Clarisse.

"Welcome to Ares!" She cried.

Percy walked up to me. "Good job." He groaned, resting his hand on his bruised head.

"Sorry..." I apologised.
Behind him, Annabeth walked up. She had somehow broken her bonds and made her way to the river.

"Good job." She said.

"Sorry for the tape... We had to win somehow." I grinned at her and she gave me a sympathetic smile. I handed her the dagger I had taken off her earlier. 

"Thanks..." She sheathed her dagger and smiled at me.

"Your pretty good with that throwing knife." Percy said. "Gift from Ares?"

"Yeah." I tapped my ring and it shapeshifted into a bronze dagger.

"Cool!" Percy muttered.

Mason walked up beside Percy and Annabeth.

"You wouldn't of won if you didn't play dirty." He groaned.

"Not my fault you have a weak spot. Guess you can't have children now." I said.

Annabeth giggled and looked at Mason.

"Whatever you say Sunshine." He grinned at me. My smile dropped.

"If you call me that one more time I swear I will peel you face off will my bear hands." I said flatly.

"I'd like that." He smirked.

Who the fuck would speak to anyone like that?!

I lunged forward and pushed him against the tree, my knife at his throat.

"What did you just say?" I whispered to him.

All he did was smile.

"Lina! What are you doing?" Chiron cantered up behind me.

I took a step back from Mason and turned around to face Chiron.

"Lina! No intentional maiming! That was the only rule!"

"Sorry Chiron..." I did actually feel bad, Chiron had been so nice and understanding to me when I got here.

Chiron turned to face the crowd that had formed, "everyone! Red Team, lead by Ares cabin, has won!"

The red team cheered and ran off, leaving me and Mason alone.

"Don't fucking call me that again." I stomped off and joined my teammates.

3 chapters in one day is crazy. Also, not everything about Capture the Flag is the same as the PJO books, cause I changed some of the rules
