Both Harry and Percy jolted upright in the hospital bed, the loud screams making them wince. They shared a single, fearful glance before they both jumped out of bed.

Percy was brandishing Riptide in a second, whilst Harry summoned his wand as he walked. It flew into his hand after about five seconds. He was at the door. Percy glanced at him in worry.

"You don't have your weap-"

"I don't need it." 

Harry leaped over the banister and onto the ground, landing perfectly. His wand felt amazing in his hand, the wood humming and growing hot in it's excitement at being used for the first time in months.

Harry cackled and a wicked smile crossed his face as he shot out beam after beam of light. He hadn't let go of any harmful spells yet, he was just casting some various protections spells. Once he saw the ice littering everything, he cast heat charms, warming charms, and charms against ice to help preserve the camp.

He shot light after light, into the sky. There was one to protect the campers. There was another spell to keep the Goddess from freezing the water. Harry then ran toward the Goddess, planning to fight. But then a ball of fire knocked her down, and a wave of ice shot from her fingers.

Harry kept running. He had cast spells that would protect him.

But as the wave connected with his body, and he was knocked back violently, he realized. He had used spells to protect the camp and the other campers. He hadn't used any to protect himself. Harry's world went black as all his senses could understand was cold.

Harry hopped over the banister of the infirmary, landing gracefully. Percy followed right behind him, thinking Harry was insane. That was, until he heard a string of latin words leave Harry's mouth, and a large beam of light shoot out of something in Harry's hand and at the monster that was attacking.

Percy blinked once in shock, then decided to think about it later. He had to focus on the monster.

Speaking of the monster. 

Percy's footsteps stuttered, looking at the damage he just realized he was passing, and the person who was causing it. It was a single, seven foot tall woman with a flowing floor length, pale blue dress, hair done in a braid over her shoulder, her skin frosty and icicles decorating her...everything.

He had no idea who she was. But by the various cabins and structures covered in ice, he would assume she was an ice Goddess. He ran forward, nonetheless, and not a moment later Leo joined him. 

"Khione." Leo panted from next to him. Percy glanced at him for more of an explanation. "Minor ice Goddess. Daughter of Boreas or something, I think. Doesn't like fire." At this, he cackled, even though he was running.

All Percy saw in the next instant was a giant, flaming, laughing Latino jump into the heart of battle, attacking the Goddess straight on.

Percy looked behind him to make sure he hadn't lost Harry while talking to the Latino. 

He had lost Harry.

Percy cursed but continued on. As he got closer he realized it wasn't just the Goddess, but she had vicious little forms of white mist swirling around her that would lash out at anything that got too close. He saw a Demi-God with an icicle in his shoulder, hopefully just unconscious. He soon passed another with one through her heart. Ffighting off a sob, Percy continued. Even as she was attacked from all sides, with different types of attacks that ranged from dropping from the trees above her to launching javelins at her or flat out throwing daggers, she managed to evade most everything.
