Hi demigods! First of all, I am so so sorry for not updating for awhile. My school had this fabulous idea of putting all my hard classes in one semester and all my easy ones in the next. So I've had a lot of homework. And then I got sick too, and that wasn't fun.

But I started writing this over the past few weeks and out it all together here. After this, there is one more chapter then the epilogue. So it's almost done.

Then I'm starting a new vampire/werewolf/hybrid fanfic. Exciting I know. I've been working out the plot and I'm writing he prologue right after this is done. So watch out for that.

The final battle is here! I tried to make it as epic as possible. Enjoy! :)

Harry's POV

I woke up. My head was throbbing and every one of my limbs hurt. What the heck happened? Oh right. Gaea's workers drugged us, kidnapped us, and took us somewhere. I just don't know where.

I looked around. Four longs chains snaked around me and ended at my wrists and ankles. I was chained to a wall with thick chains. I tried lifting up my arms but the chains were heavy. I was stuck sitting on the floor, sitting up against a wall with the chains holding me captive.

I saw the boys and they were in the same position as me. The room we were in was brightly lit and had green walls. The door that closed us in was made of iron.

Our weapons were nowhere to be found.

There was no way we could get out.

"Is everyone alright?" Liam asked.

"What happened exactly?" Niall asked, still confused. It suddenly hit me. Niall was still kind of dazed when all this happened.

"Gaea drugged us, kidnapped us, and is basically storing us in this room," Louis summed up.

"What more does she want from us?" Zayn asked. "I don't know Zayn, but let's just wait and see," Liam replied.

I sighed. I knew all we could do was sit in here and wait.

Suddenly, the door to the room open with a loud creak. He looked to be our age. He had blond hair like Niall, except it was natural, not died. He also had blue eyes too, but instead of showing happiness, they were full of lust. He was really skinny and pale, like he gave up eating for the past weeks. His look shot daggers as he looked at all of us.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"Harry, don't," Louis warned.

"Why. I don't think we've met yet, Harry. I'm Phoenix," he said.

Phoenix? Like the guy on the train? The one that kidnapped Louis and the one that was killed? He had to be dead. Niall killed him.

"I thought I killed you. I killed you with my own hands," Niall pointed out, confused. "You all thought he did, but I lived. Gaea protected me. For serving her, I get protection from her. The same goes for my brother, Peyton" Phoenix replied.

"Phoenix, or whatever you name is, what are you even doing here?" Louis asked.

"Oh I'm here to tell you that one of you is about to die. She's deciding who she wants as her boy sacrifice. Speaking of that, that's why I'm here, deciding with her," Phoenix replied.

He walked over to Niall with a knife. He bent down while Niall started to squirm around, trying to get away.

He roughly grabbed Niall's hand. He took the knife and pressed it against Niall's palm, cutting a wound. Niall screamed in pain as his oozing blood fell to the floor. I scowled at him as he smirked. And just like that, Niall's blood soaked into the ground and disappeared.

He then walked over to Liam and did the same thing to him. Once he was done, he stepped away. He didn't cut me, Louis, or Zayn so Gaea must have been deciding between them.

Phoenix waited. After a couple of seconds, he smirked. "Niall, she chooses you."

Niall started to shake and I scowled at him.

"None of us are dying," I roughly told him.

"Yes. It is going to happen. As for the four of you, you get to watch your friend die, as a reward from Gaea for failing. Now I'll be back. We have to get the other sacrifice ready."

"What 'other' sacrifice?" Zayn asked.

"You'll see."

With that, Phoenix walked out.

"Don't worry Ni. You're going to live. We'll make sure," Zayn assured him.

He just shook even more.

Liam looked at all of us.

"Now would be the time to think of a plan."

Louis' POV

It's been at least an hour and I couldn't feel my arms and legs anymore. The chains were weighing us down to the point my muscles gave up and just rested.

And just our luck, we haven't thought of a plan. At this point, Niall could die. Heck we could all die if we didn't stop her and her stupid giant sons.

We then turned our thoughts to te other sacrifice. Who could it be? Someone we knew? The possibilities were endless.

The wounds on Niall and Liam's palms stopped bleeding, but now they're hands were covered in dry blood, showing some blood loss.

"We have to think of something. We're responsible for Camp Half Blood here!" Harry exclaimed. "I know Hazz, but...there's nothing for us to work with. We're chained to a wall with no weapons and we're locked in a room. What do you expect?" I asked.

He sank down.

Suddenly, Liam's head shot up. He turned to me. "Louis, who's Poseidon the god of?" He asked me. I thought for a second. "Well, he's the god of the sea, hurricanes, storms, oceans, and earthquakes, from what I know," I replied from my knowledge.

"Louis, do you think you could try an earthquake power and break the chains?" Liam asked. I looked at him, shocked.

Percy never told me we could do that! He had some serious explaining to do. And still, I don't even know how to do it. I only know water stuff, not earthquake stuff.

"I don't know how to do any of that stuff," I said.

"Just try Louis. It's our only chance of getting out of here. Either that or we watch Niall get sacrificed," Zayn said with a serious face.

I sighed. The least I could do was try.

I put my hands on the wall behind me. I closed my eyes and concentrated on my power.

An earthquake. I need the power of an earthquake.

Suddenly, I had a gut feeling. I felt the floor rumble and I concentrated even harder. The rumbles climbed up the walls. I heard clanging on the ground and I knew it was working.

I opened my eyes and saw what I did. The room was full of cracks and fallen chains, but they were still locked on our wrists and ankles. We were 'free', but we wouldn't be able to walk.

That's when Niall spread his arms out. "Ni what are you doing?" I asked. "Well, iron is a great conductor," he simply replied. He held his arms up and curled his fingers. Suddenly, a ton of lighning bolts came down. They went straight for the chains and I closed my eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, the chains and the door were destroyed.

Liam smiled. "Nice job Niall," he told him. "Thanks. Now we just have to find Gaea and her giant sons," Niall replied.

We walked out and walked down the numerous hallways. It turns out we didn't even need our weapons. Every time we ran into a monster, Zayn would just summon someone from the dead and it'd be alright from there.

We got to a room and looked around. The room was huge. It had a high ceiling with lights in the walls, like the walls were glowing.

Fortunetly, we saw our weapons abandoned in the corner of the room. We ran and got them. We all grabbed our swords while Harry grabbed his bow and arrows.

"Watch out for a trap," Zayn reminded us. We nodded and started walking in different directions.

A couple of moments later, we heard the door open and shut. I turned around to see two giants. One had red hair and was at least thirty feet tall. His eyes were pitch black, like they tried to show how dark he was. The other one was opposite. His eyes were all white. He was a lot taller, had green hair, and was at least sixty feet tall, a lot taller than the other one.

Porphyrion and Alcyoeuns. It had to be.

They were here.

"Hello boys," the red-haired giant said. I glared at them. "I see you escaped the room, and just in time. Gaea is ready for the sacrifice," the green-haired giant said.

"Who's who exactly?" I asked. They both laughed. "I am Porphyrion," The one with red hair said. "And I am Alcyoeuns," the one with white hair said. I understood now. It cleared things up.

Again, Niall started to shake in fear. I couldn't help but want to use my water power and just blanket them in water. I ignored my anger and focused on the giants.

"I will kill you even if it's the last thing I do'" Zayn threatened, raising his hand.

"Oh, I forgot to mention. We still need to show you the other sacrifice, and our leverage."

"Leverage?" I asked.

"You'll see. Phoenix. Peyton."

Phoenix and Peyton came in. They were holding two girls, pinning their arms behind them. One had brown curly hair and another had blonde hair with purple highlights.

Wait...I'd know those girls anywhere, especially the brunette.

"El!" I gasped. Eleanor lifted up her head and had a look of shock on her face. "Louis!" She screamed before Phoenix covered her mouth with his hand.

Zayn saw Perrie and they screamed for each other Peyton, too, covered her mouth with his hand.

"Let them go!" I growled. "And why would we do that? One of them is the other sacrifice and both of them are our leverage," Phoenix replied, still tightening his grip around Eleanor, wrapping his arms around her even tighter.

"They were in Camp Half Blood though. How'd you kidnap them?" Zayn asked. "If you really forgot, we are sons of Apollo. We can get through the barrier to get inside the camp, late at night. Lets just say they shouldn't walk in the dark alone," Peyton replied.

"Now Niall, you chose. Do you want to be sacrificed with Perrie or Eleanor?"

"I'm not choosing because I'm not being sacrificed," Niall replied.

Phoenix turned to me. "Ok Louis you chose. Eleanor or Perrie?"

I shuttered. I wouldn't chose. Eleanor was my girlfriend, but Perrie was a close friend. What should I do?"

"Umm...I need time. Lads," I replied, motioning for the boys to gather around.

We gathered into a circle.

"Alright lads. This is the final battle. This could be it. We're doing this for Camp Half Blood and the world. Don't forget that. Now, Liam, battle strategy?" I asked.

Liam though for a moment and a knowing face soon came onto his face. "Okay boys I got something."

He whispered the plan and we agreed to it.

We gave a group hug for good luck, which was for good luck, an just because it was possibly our last one, and faced Phoenix, Peyton, and the giants.

Niall's POV

The plan Liam thought up was brilliant. Now we had to do it. We couldn't lose this, not now. This was my part of the plan now.

I then stepped forward and held up his hands in defeat. "Alright, I give up. You win," I simply said. Alcyoeuns smiled evilly and started to walk towards me.

I turned around to looked at them, waiting for their approval. They nodded and I nodded back, understanding them.

I closed my eyes and held up my hands.

This is it. If I do this right, we'll be one step closer to defeating them. It's gong to take a lot of power but I know I can do this.

I screamed and the ceiling torn open. I felt shocks of electricity flowing through my body as several bolts of lightning came down and struck everything in the room. My power was draining as I kept summoning lighting but I knew I couldn't give up. They weren't down, yet. I had to keep going, for a little bit longer. I kept going even though every bone in my body told me to drop on the floor, but I ignored it.

When I knew I couldn't summon anymore, I stopped and put my hands down. I looked around and saw what I did. The room was gone. The walls and ceiling were torn down, giving us a wonderful view of Maine, which should've been wonderful if we weren't at death's door.

I was breathing heavily, still drained from what I did, but it was worth it. I let out a sigh as I turned back to them.

What we hoped what would happen, happened. Eleanor and Perrie were no longer being held captive. They came running towards and Eleanor went running into Louis' arms while Perrie went runnning into Zayn's. They shared a kiss while Zayn and Perrie did the same.

I saw them whispering to each other, not letting anyone else hear them. Probably the romantic stuff they talk about. I then saw her smile as they tightened the hug.

I know, we could be killing them right now, but they were down, and I knew Zayn and Louis wanted this moment for their girlfriends, so we were going to give it to them.

Eleanor and Louis pulled away as did Zayn and Perrie. "El, I don't want you to get hurt. You and Perrie should go while you have the chance," Louis told her. She scoffed. "Lou, I love you, but we're not going anywhere. We have been demigods longer than any of you lads. And just because we're girls, and daughters of Aphrodite, it doesn't mean we can't do anything useful. We're good fighters too," Eleanor said, smiling.

They then proceeded to reach into their back pocket and they each pulled out a bronze knife. We all stared at them. "We also have a thing called charm speaking, and only a couple of children of Aphrodite can do that," Perrie added.

Louis and Zayn still looked worried.

"But El, Perrie, what if-"

Eleanor shut him up with a kiss. "Don't worry. We'll be fine. Perrie and I trained just as much as you lads. We'll be fine," Eleanor assured him.

Before Louis could protest, the giants started to stir, same with Phoenix and Peyton.

Eleanor and Perrie kissed their boyfriends again. "Don't worry. We'll be fine. We'll take on Phoenix and Peyton," Perrie told us. Zayn and Louis gave in and were going to let them fight.

They stood up. Phoenix and Peyton took out bow and arrows while the giants just looked ready to fight.

We charged and the fight begun. The fight to the end.

Third Person POV

The boys, Eleanor, and Perrie ran into battle. They knew they could very well die, but they knew it was for the world, and they couldn't think of a better reason.

Eleanor and Perrie ran towards Phoenix and Peyton while the boys went for the giants. Eleanor and Perrie reached Phoenix and Peyton just as they were setting up their bows and arrows.

"Well well Eleanor and Perrie," Phoenix said as they showed up. They drew their knives as they realized that they saw them. "Phoenix. Peyton," Perrie replied. "You girls are brave for coming to us like that. Did you want to talk to us about your makeup or accessories? Or did you want to gossip on who likes who at camp?" Peyton mocked in a girly voice.

Eleanor and Perrie glared at them. "You should be scared. We know about makeup and such, but we know more. I bet we're even better fighters than both of you combined," Perrie taunted back.

Phoenix and Payton were mad at the thought. "Fine. Lets see who can fight better. Eleanor, Perrie, let's fight."

They both started shooting arrows as Eleanor and Perrie jumped out of the way just in time.

Phoenix went straight for Eleanor as Peyton went for Perrie, and a fight begun.

Eleanor sidestepped just as Phoenix tried to kick her. He tried many times after that to hurt her, but it didn't work.

But suddenly, Phoenix took the opportunity to take out an arrow and press to to Eleanor's skin.

The arrow didn't have a sharp point, but a flat end, like Harry's. Except the arrow Phoenix used could burn whatever object it was pressed against.

He put it on her arm and it burned her. She screamed in pain and fell to the ground. Louis saw and wanted to run to her, but Harry stopped him, and reminded him that they had to beat the giants.

Eleanor suddenly thought of a plan. In all the pain, she managed to take out the arrow. She saw a burn marked on her but she ignored it. She put the arrow on Phoenix's arm, and he screamed. Eleanor then took her knife and stabbed Phoenix in the stomach. He screamed and Eleanor kicked him. He fell on the floor, in pain.

She kneeled down next to Phoenix, holding her knife in her left hand. She took her right hand and slapped Phoenix in the face. "This is for the boys," she said with a slap. "This is for kidnapping me and Perrie," she said with another one. "And this is for turning to Kronos and Gaea when we needed you'" she said with one last slap.

She took her knife and held it up. Phoenix, for once, looked scared.

"Rot in Tartarus. Traitor."

And with that, she stabbed Phoenix in the chest. His eyes closed and his head slumped over. She realized how heavy she was breathing.

She was satified with what she did.

Perrie was having her own battle with Peyton. He wouldn't stop shooting arrows and Perrie couldn't get close enough.

But suddenly, she thought of a plan. She put her knife. "Hey Peyton. I'm not going to fight you," she suddenly called out in her most convincing voice. Peyton stopped shooting and looked at her with a shocked look. "You're not?" He asked. "Oh, of course not," she replied.

"Why...?" He asked with suspicion. "I know you fancy me Peyton. I know the look you gave me when you saw me. It's your look when you're in love. You don't what to kill a girl that you fancy do you?" She asked, knowing she was charm speaking.

Peyton put down his bow and arrow and started walking towards her. "No, I wouldn't exactly kill her. I'd want to take her on a date...," he replied with a dazed voice. "Well, that's lovely," she replied. They're faces were now inches away. This gave Perrie the chance to kill him.

She slowly drew her knife and stabbed Peyton in the stomach. He fell on the ground, realizing what happened. He then scowled at her. "You tricked me," he growled. She smirked, standing over him. "You told me I was 'just a wimpy daughter of Aphrodite' if I remember correctly, and yet you still fancied me," Perrie told him.

He rolled his eyes. "Lucky shot," he replied. "Oh, by the way, I'm already taken by Zayn, who is already a much better boyfriend than you would be."

Peyton shot daggers at Perrie with his glare.

"Good bye, Peyton."

She stabbed Peyton in the chest, killing him His eyes closed and his body went stale.

Eleanor and Perrie saw what they did and hugged quickly before running to help the boys.

The battle was not going well for the boys. They were facing two giants that were at least thirty feet tall, and there was only five of them. They drew their swords, jumped out of the way when the giants tried to kill them, slashing with their swords or shooting countless arrows, and were just defending themselves. Nothing was working so far.

"Lads, this isn't working. We need a new strategy," Zayn said to all of them. They all gave a quick nod and knew the truth. Slashing and defending wasn't going to work forever. They needed a new plan.

But then they saw Perrie and Eleanor running up to them. The couples gave quick smiles before turning to the giants.

Louis made a small earthquake, making the giants fall. It made time for them to make a plan.

They huddled together and Liam, being the strategist he is, he told the plan to everyone. They all knew if they did their part right, they could defeat both of the giants.

They broke apart juust as the giants got up.

"You cannot defeat us. We are more powerful than you are," Porphyrion bellowed.

"Think again. GO!" Liam yelled.

They all ran away from the giants, putting their plan in action. "Don't be fools and run away," Alcyoneus yelled.

Zayn, Harry, Niall, and Louis ran away quietly while Liam, Eleanor, and Perrie started to attempt to hold off the giants.

"Do you really think you can beat us? We're stronger, bigger, and more powerful," Alcyoneus yelled.

Little did the know that Liam, Eleanor, and Perrie were just distracting them. Zayn, Louis, Niall, and Harry were going to help defeat them.

Louis kneeled on one knee and pressed his fingertips to the ground. He closed his eyes and focused his power into the ground. He felt the ground rumble, knowing that was what he needed. He opened his eyes and saw a huge crack traveling on the ground. It traveled towards the giants. They looked in fear as the earthquake crack got closer.

It traveled under and pass them, making their feet rumble. They started to lose their balance and wobbled around.

"Niall!" Louis yelled, while keeping up the earthquake.

Niall heard his cue and made his way over to the giants. He held up his hands like he did before and two strikes of lightning came down. It blinded the giants while they still wobbled around.

"Zayn!" Niall yelled, still summoning lightning.

Zayn then heard his cue and came out. He stood near Niall and held his hands outward, curling his fingers. Suddenly clouds of darkness came out and started to float towards the giants. They looked frightened as the clouds covered them and started to take away life from them.

"Harry!" Zayn yelled, keeping the dark clouds present.

Harry stood in front of the giants with his bow and arrows. He took out one of his dad's special arrows. He put the arrow in the bow and took aim. Once he knew his target, he pulled the string back and let the arrow fly. The arrow flew into the dark clouds and they all heard the giants scream.

The light grew into a bubble and surrounded the monsters. Everyone looked away as the bubble gave away a shower of light. Everyone felt the lights power as the giants scream got quieter.

Suddenly, everything was quiet. Everyone opened their eyes and saw nothing. The giants were defeated, for now.

You have won for now, but I am still rising. You haven't won, you just slowed down time. Just wait demigods, I will rise. You haven't heard the last of me.

Gaea spoke to all of them in their minds. They all heard the voice, and too it as a precaution. It wasn't the end, yet, but they knew they'd win at the end.

Liam's POV

I looked at what we did. We were standing in a maze of abandoned Maine woods.

We did it. We finally defeated the giants. Camp Half Blood and the world was safe...for now.

I turned to Perrie and Eleanor. They smiled and both gave me a hug. "Li we did it!" They both screamed. I smiled' "Yeah we did it," I replied.

"Liam, Eleanor, Perrie! Thank the gods you're okay!" I turned around only to be tackled by another hug from Harry. I smiled and hugged him back. "Of course we're ok. What about Zayn, Niall and Louis?" I asked. Harry let go and bit his lip. "Niall, Louis, and Zayn, they...," he started to say. Harry motioned me and the girls to follow him. We didn't hesitate and followed him.

When he got to the place, I was immediately hit with worry. Zayn, Louis, and Niall were lying down on the forest floor. Their arms laid out by their bodies while their legs were together, with their knees up a little. Their eyes were closed and they looked lifeless. They were unconscious.

Eleanor and Perrie's faces suddenly flooded with worry. They immediately ran up to their boyfriends, hoping for them to be okay.

"What made them like this?" Harry asked. "I don't know. Maybe they drew too much power from their fathers that it overwhelmed them," I assumed. "I didn't even think they could draw power like that. It was...powerful," Harry replied. "They are sons of the Big Three. They are pretty powerful all together," I told him. "Makes sense," he replied.

But now we had a problem on our hands. How were we suppose to get out of here with those three unconscious?

"Oh. Louis' whistle!" Harry exclaimed, like he read my mind. He walked over to Louis, who was being tended for by Eleanor, and pulled out his whistle. He blew into it, and moments later, the same three pegasi came into view. They landed and looked around.

The black one neighed along with his friends. But something was different. On the black one, who I assumed was Blackjack, had a chariot attached to him, like they knew what our situation was. They looked around and they nodded.

We put Louis, Zayn, and Niall into the chariot first. Perrie and Eleanor said they'd ride in the chariot as well to make sure none of them fell off. And it would be awkward to be riding on the same pegasus as them on the way back.

Harry and I got on Porkpie and Guido. Once we gave the okay, they flew off towards Camp Half Blood.

Our home. I smiled at the thought.

We were finally going home. Our safety.

I couldn't wait.

____________

There you have it. The final battle. They're going home now! Yay! Now, another chapter then the epilogue. Until then!
