The House of Hades

Leo XIII

Leo




Leo remembered how Frank shot him with the ballista, they would never get along.

"Why Alcatraz? It's in the other side of the world" Nico asked. "You want to rescue Hazel? She is trapped in some cell in Alcatraz."

"How long, to get to San Francisco?" Nico asked
"About four hours" Leo said "If you need something, I'll be in my cabin" And Leo went to his room.

He had been working secretly with Annabeth before she fell to Tartarus, an invention that Daedalus wanted to make, but he never made it. An anti dream hat, demigods dreamed a lot, but they were things that happened or will happen.

It didn't work any time, it would break apart. Leo wondered if it was fault of the curse.

His room was like a tiny forge, with pieces and tools at the table. He could press a button to hide all the worktables and make the bed appear.

Leo turned on the TV to see the news. Coach Hedge was watching a sumo fight, but he didn't stop saying "yeah take that!" He looked for the remote control, but instead he found a mythomaniac hydra figurine. He was going to grab it but it spit acid. "Ahh!" Leo shouted, he took out his hammer and smashed it.

Suddenly, he got an idea.

He ran to the deck, where the giant statue of Athena proudly stood, just as a god or goddess should be. He took out the Archimedes sphere and pressed the buttons at the sides of the orb. A blue ray appeared in front of the invention and flew until it touched the statue. It began to shrink until it was the size of an apple. Leo grabbed it and put it in his pocket.

He returned to his cabin.


"We're approaching to San Francisco, get your butts over the deck, or I'll make you do push ups!" Glenson said through the intercom.

Everybody came in full battle armor to the deck. "Let's go get my sister!" Nico said.

"Grover, stay here to protect the ship with Coach Hedge."

Grover nodded.

"We have no time to lose, the quicker we get out of here, better." Jason said.

"Coach, you are the commander of the ship for now, don't use the ballista unless there is no other option, but be careful, the mist doesn't work well." Leo said.

Leo took the Athena Partheos and tossed it to Glenson.

"What is this?" He asked

"Is Athena, I used the shrink ray on it so it's smaller, take care of it very well, don't loose it coach" Leo ordered.

Leo had never been in Alcatraz, the famous prison from where Al Capone was imprisoned and escaped, one of the most safe prison, ruining it only with a spoon. Rows of cells covered the corridors, security towers rose outside of the prison.

"Nyx, where is Hazel" Frank demanded

"Come with me" Nyx answered

She took them to the end of the prison, where the room was dark just as Nyx.

"Now" Jason murmured, thankfully, Leo understood.

Jason jabbed Nyx, and when she got distracted, Leo grabbed the keys, put them in his belt, and replaced them with other keys.

"What was that for?" Nyx asked

"Here is your friend" and pointed into a cell, where diamonds and gold covered the floor.

"You said you didn't work for Gaea!" Leo said loud enough for Hazel to hear

"I swear by the River Styx I don't work for my sister, I work for your family, Jason" She snapped her fingers and a skinny dude appeared in roman armor, Octavian, followed by more romans with their spears drawn. Leo could only recognize two romans, Dakota, the cool aid addict, and Reyna.

"So you bit the bite, enemies of Rome, you shall come to see your camp go up in flames."
