       I stared in horror as Jack threw that dagger at Omega's back. Omega was too trusting. I swallowed the scream that threatened to escape- he reminded me so much of Nobody- or Percy. My head whipped towards Jack as he declared he had won. My eyes narrowed, and I clenched my fists. I wanted nothing more but to declare that he had cheated, and I wanted to punch him as hard as I could. Then something slid out of the shadows in a black cloak, and I instantly knew that this was the other Commander from the aura of authority. It tossed back it's hood- it was a wolf. It looked like a dog, and it's head was really scarred. It sniffed it's partner deeply. "Big O never ceases to amaze me- this poison is strong enough to make a god fade. Typical that he would sleep through it." The beast snorted. Then the beast clumsily took out a phone and a screen appeared. He was on Facebook. How can he be on Facebook at a time like this? Then I saw that he was messaging Chaos. This is what I read:

Spike: Chaos!

Chaos: Did you go on Earth without my permission again?

Spike: Yeah, but that's not the point. The point is that Big O is DYING!

Chaos: Big O... Oh! You mean Omega? Wait... OMEGA IS DYING?! Why didn't you say so?!

Spike: I just did. So, are you coming to save the day?

Chaos: Yeah, I'll do these important papers later.

Hero: What? You wouldn't do that for me! You would let me die and call it tough love or something like that! :'(

Chaos: Um....  awkward.

Spike: Don't worry, Hero, we could cry about how Chaos would let us die together but I'll be secretly laughing about how Jack thought you were the other Commander behind your back. :)

Hero: That's just mean- But it could happen!  :'(

Spike: We both know that that's not possible, as long as I'm around, spreading good cheer and AWESOMENESS!!

Omega: That's nice and all, but I'M DYING OVER HERE AND IN A LOT OF PAIN AND THAT JACKASS WHO DID THIS TO ME DESERVES TO DIE A PAINFUL DEATH. I'M NOT KIDDING.

Chaos: Okay, I'm here. Wait, this is China. #!$%&. -_-. Don't kill anyone!

Spike: Language!

Chaos: I'M THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE. YOU CAN'T SCOLD ME!

Spike: I'm older than you, and you need to respect your elders. :)

Omega: How can I kill someone when I'm practically half dead?

Spike: -_- I think that we both know the answer to that.

Omega: -_-  ... Chaos, you better get over here or I'm going to steal your awesome car and crash it.... again.

Chaos: No! You can't do that!

Omega: Why not?

Chaos: Because I'm planning to marry that car!

Omega: That's just sad.

Spike: Poor Chaos, no girl loves him, so he's marrying his car.

Chaos:   :'( And you wonder why I unfriended you.

Spike: I think I was the one who unfriended you.

Chaos: DETAILS!!!

Spike: Just portal yourself over here or I'll prank you and steal your car and crash it!!!

Chaos: NO! I'm coming!

       And Chaos appeared out of a portal. Just as I was about to bow, the beast glanced at me with his golden eyes and snickered. Indignant, I stiffened to try to not bow. "WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO OMEGA?!" Chaos squeaked when he saw Omega's twitching body. He had blacked out. "An duel that went wrong- the other guy threw a dagger at him when his back was turned. Omega was too trusting that Jack was honorable." I offered. Chaos nodded at me before he awkwardly picked Omega up before flashing out. Then the wolf turned to Jack and flashed his white fangs at him- half threat, half smile. "So you wanted to have a duel with me?" The wolf purred.

          I swear that it looked like Jack was about to wet his pants or faint or maybe both as he studied the wolf's razor sharp claws, and his wicked sharp fangs that glittered in the setting sun. Again, the wolf glanced at me with those huge golden eyes of his, but this time he winked. "The code name's Lone Wolf, darling. My friends call me Spike." He purred. Then he turned towards Jack and stretched each of his claws. "Fight!" I ordered. Jack charged while Spike looked down at him. Jack threw his sword, and it hit Spike's ivory claws with a pathetic clunk. Silence. Then Spike began to roar with laughter- he literally roared! Then the humongous wolf reared back onto his hind paws, his right paw poised to strike. "Sweet mother of Zeus." I thought I heard Jack whimper as Spike's paw began to come towards him like a missile.

         Smack! Lone Wolf's paw slammed into Jack, sweeping him towards the arena wall at about 100 miles per hour. Thunk. I winced as Jack hit the wall. That had to hurt. A lot. Spike wasn't done yet, though. His left paw scooped Jack into the air, tossing him like a cat would to a mouse, and slammed Jack between his front paws. Ouch. That had to hurt even more! I think I even heard a sickening crunch! Spike pretended to peek into his paws to see what he caught. When a sword swung at him, Spike let go of the demigod- at least 50 feet high! Screams of terror from Annabeth echoed in my skull. Right when Jack was about to hit the floor with a splat, Spike caught him.

       Jack's feet had been five feet from the floor, and Spike had caught him by the edge of his boxers. Now Jack's feet were touching the ground. That was probably a very painful wedgie. "I yield!" Jack practically cried. Spike gave him a clever smirk. "Just to be safe...." Spike purred as he hung Jack by his boxers before strutting out of the arena. "Someone get me down from here!" Jack wailed, struggling. I glanced up at him, and I think a clever smirk might've flashed across my face. "You're too high." I pretended to sigh with disappointment before merrily skipping away.

     Now that was a good duel. I hoped that Omega would be back soon, my crush on him was getting stronger. He reminded me so much of Nobody or Percy or whoever was the one who saved me! I walked into the Hecate Cabin- my cabin. I loved him so much I wanted to brew a love potion- but he was a Warrior of Chaos. Even if the potion worked, he would be long gone after the war. Oh well. I should record that duel- that duel is better than any of the duels around here. But I will not describe their features- I want Omega to be mine. Not that I could, anyways. I fell for him pretty hard. Omega's a survivor. He'll come back. Right?
