Omega POV

"What have you done?"

I froze. The voice sounded familiar. Like I should know who they are, but I don't remember them exactly. Quickly I vapor traveled to the other side of the tent which threw off and confused my attacker. I then got a good look at who wanted to kill me.

"Krios! I haven't met in you person before but I recognize you because you still have the same stupid horns on your head. Demigod dreams, sometimes they do come I handy," I laughed.

"I know! It isn't fair," he whined, "People always think that. I wish I could've looked somewhat scarier. Hyperion is nearly as bright as the sun, a useful advantage in battle. He can blind his enemies. And all I get is the stupid horns. They are much flimsier than they look. Anyways, where is Gaea? What did you do to her? I knew she shouldn't have trusted you. Never trust a demigod," he growled.

"Isn't it obvious? I killed her! Now if you don't mind I'm just going to wake up my fiancé and leave. Goodbye!" I tried to escape out of the tent slit but Krios was blocking my path. For a guy who lacks in intimidation, he is very tall. That pretty much makes up for everything that isn't terrifying. I mean, we are talking about eight feet tall! Eh, I can take him.

"You are not going to get away so easily. I owe it to the Earth Mother to slay you. Think of it as an eye for an eye. So there is one person for each side of the war!"

"I understand that you're angry but you are still a titan and I am still a half blood. Ever heard of the ancient laws? I would have to attack you first. Would you like me to?" I asked him.

He furrowed his eyebrows in thought, "You actually want to fight? Why would you even want to? Obviously I'm going to win."

I sighed. I guess I have to make up his mind for him. I ran the ten feet that I was away from him and unsheathed Riptide. Jumping, my goal was to strike downwards. But unfortunately he was a lot more agile than I thought and he stepped aside with his sword out, me falling into a crouch on the ground. I stood up and lunged at him but he parried away my strike. I then began a series of fast and quick counterstrikes, hoping that he would tire. It worked when he tripped over something in the small space of the tent. Using this as my opportunity to strike I took Riptide and stabbed him in the chest.

After he disintegrated, I tried to look calm and cool as I walked out. Surprisingly, the guards were still there and didn't look a single bit alarmed. The tent must be protected with magical borders to make it soundproof. I thought to myself. I was relieved when I finally made it past them. But then I heard a shout and saw one of them come out of Gaea's tent, fury on their ugly face. Immediately I started running and heard the drowsy monsters start to come out of their own quarters, disturbed by the shout. Instead of going to my tent to get Bianca, I used the easy way and talked in her mind. Before I could say anything, she spoke to me.

Omega, where are you? She sounded worried. I smiled faintly at her concern.

Run, go back to Camp Half Blood. I'll meet you there. But I must be mature. I can't exactly focus on my relationship while I'm running from a thousand monsters.

Why? What's going on?

Gaea is dead. I killed her. Just shadow travel back to the camp. My plan worked. I'll tell you what happened later. Just get to safety. The guards will figure out soon enough what I did and then we will be in trouble. I didn't tell her that they already have found out what I've done. Why cause the extra worry? By the time she shadow travels back to camp, I will be done here.

Ok, be careful. I'll see you soon. Love you.

"Love you too," I whispered into the night.

When the fastest monsters caught up to me, I was prepared.

"Come at me! You'll never win!" The roaring and pounding of all the different beasts was nearly deafening. I slashed and hacked away like a madman. It was almost too easy. Almost. I was tired, both emotionally and physically. And the fight just went out of me. The monsters attacked with renewed vifor when they saw that I had stopped. Panicking, I vapor traveled back to the Big House.

End of super long flashback

When I looked up from my story, I saw that everyone had a similar look of awe and fear on their faces. Except for Bianca, she looked proud. I smiled at her and she grinned back wildly.

I love you. I whispered both in her mind and out loud.

"Love you too." She replied.

"Ok, well story time is over. Time for bed!" I stood up and clapped my hands once before grabbing Bianca's hand and going back to the Chaos cabin.
