Leo

Before we could think where Piper was, two bombers flew next to my ship. Annabeth looked overboard.

"Leo! Shoot those bombers! They are North Korean!"

I aimed and shot them. The pilots ejected and the planes crashed in a nearby building. They disappeared in a mushroom cloud.

We climbed down into a nearby building.

"Look, lastrygonians and, is that Dakota? " I said.

"Again?" Percy said.

We charged.

"Stay back!" I shouted. The soldiers looked at me blankly. They had a flag painted on the suites. I recognized it as the Mexican flag.

"Quedense atrás, ellos nos ayudarán, son de Nueva York" A soldier said in spanish. Probably the leader.

"Oh great, put the Mexicans in the front lines." I muttered as I knocked out Dakota.

We reduced the monsters to yellow dust and a horrible smell of sulfur. We knocked Dakota out and his eyes returned to normal. "Where on Earth is my Kool-Aid?" He said when he woke up.

We approached to the leader.

"I am from Puerto Rico, I got this" Sam said. "Necesito que nos presten una de sus mulas de asalto"

The leader slapped him hard. "We use no assault donkeys, and second, I speak english, son of Poseidon, eh? And daughter of Artemis? Son of Hephaestus?"

I nodded. The leader was most likely in his early fifties.

"I'm Alexander Valdez, son of Demeter, I am the capitain of the Mexican scout squad."

"Demeter in battle?" I asked.

"Don't be so surprised lad, if someone can be a good scout, he is a child of Demeter"

I decided to drop the conversation.

"Situation in other countries captain?"

"Capital cities overrun by monsters, small towns like Sitka or Big Bear Village are unaffected. We have no word from California, Egypt, Israel, South Korea and other countries. If we lost Israel, we are all dead. Our nuclear arsenal is in there. We ran out of Imperial Gold. Do you need any mortal military equipment?" Alexander asked.

"I need you to lend us an assault car" I smiled.

"You are going to get us all killed Leo! Drive slower!"

"Don't worry McLean, everything is under control"

I ran over a cat. "Oops"

I heard the sound of gunfire.

"Canadians at seven'o clock Leo!" Percy said.

"Um, Percy, these are not Canadians, those are Frank and the Minotaur."

Annabeth

"Beef head? Again?"

The Minotaur roared. His Ω shaped axe was swinging in his arms.

Leo was about to pull the trigger, but I said, "Don't shoot Leo, it's too dangerous to shoot 18 mm. bullets with Frank and Clarisse near it"

"Besides, I want to give him a painful death" Percy added.

"Okay, but if you both fail, I will make a giant hole in it."

I charged at Frank, and Percy charged at the Minotaur, Riptide in one hand and a flask of greek fire in the other.

"We got company guys!" Someone screamed.

He was right, it was an ambush. A Panzer appeared out of nowhere, a legion of demigods with javelins and the legion banners. Modern Korean soldiers. And worst of all.

"Welcome back, ungrateful tourists. I hope you enjoyed your life. Now, surrender."


"Wait! Before we do anything, I will make a deal with you. Go rot in Tartarus, leave us alone and surrender" I said.

"What will I win?" Nyx asked.

"Your armies won't be crushed under our sneakers, and trust me, Jackson knows how it tastes"

"She is right, but they will taste Peleus' and -" Sam said and looked to the sky.

"Festus Jr.!" Leo shirked like an Aphrodite daughter.

Before we could ask who Festus Jr. was, a giant bronze dragon stepped on the Minotaur.

"Hello brother, do you want to kick some Panzer butts?" The dragon rider asked.

What I saw made no sense, on Peleus and Festus Jr's back there were two of the bravest demigods walking on Earth. Charles Beckendorf and Silena Buegengard (How do you spell it?)

They should be dead, resting in Elysium, enjoying of each other's company. But then I realized it. Luke was supposed to be dead, Zoe too, Michael Yew too. Ouranos brought them back to life.

"Of course brother!" Leo climbed on FJ's back and charged at the tank.

Piper shot the assault vehicle's gun, while the rest of us attacked directly.

Nyx disappeared when the battle started.

Thalia

My battle was going badly.

I approached to the Tower of Seattle alone.

The battle noise faded in the background. Then, I felt pain in my ankle. A hunting knife was stuck in it. Someone with a sword and several knives came out of the shadows. He slashed and made a deep cut on my leg. My jeans were soaked in blood. My eyesight went fuzzy, my eyelids were heavy.

This is it. I thought.

I was on my knees and the killer came near me. He had a double edge battle axe. He raised it. I closed my eyes and waited for the blow to come. But it didn't. I opened them and I saw another demigod soaked in blood and the killer's neck twisted in a weird position.

"Leave Thalia alone"

The last thing I saw was that I was being carried by Nicholas Di Angelo.

I lost conscious.

I woke up on a bed in a place that looked like the warehouse in where Annabeth stabbed the Cyclops and saved Luke and I.

When I tried to stand up, I almost fainted.

"You need to rest Thalia, drink something" Someone said.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"Nico, we are safe here"

I looked to my left and I saw a glass with some kind of red liquid. I drank some and I felt my throat burn.

Fire.

"Don't worry Thals, you won't die. It is the Underworld equivalent to Nectar, Percy and Annabeth drank it once in Tartarus"

"Where are they? Where are we?"

"They are trying o capture the Tower. Where we are doesn't matter, what matters only is that you are safe." said Nico.

"Thank you Nico"
