We turned around to find a female, about a year or two older than me, walking toward us. She wore a simple white t-shirt and blue jeans with black sandals. Her long, brown hair flew around as she walked. She was very beautiful. Even with the frown on her face. Wait a minute, a frown?
"What's with the gods?" she said as she stopped a few feet from us. "First Percy, who promised to free me, then Leo, who left me, and now you guys. This just can't get any better."
She turned around and began walking off.
"Hey! Where are you going? Who are you and where are we?" Jake asked as he ran after her.
She spun around and threw an angry glare at him, making him freeze in spot. Before he could say anything else, she asked, "Who are you and why are you here?"
"Hey! I just asked a similar question!" Jake said.
"I'm Beth, and that's Jake, and we don't know why we were sent here," Beth answered.
"Well, I do," said a voice from behind the new girl.
Immediately recognized him as Zeus wearing a suit. I raced to him and gave him a big hug. "Dad!"
"Hello, son," Zeus said, smiling. "That girl there is Calypso who will now be joining your little group."
"Does that mean . . . I'm free?" Calypso asked, shocked.
Zeus nodded.
"Finally!" she yelled. "I can finally leave this place."
"But you'll first have to help these demigods in their mission," Zeus said. "And I think its about time I introduced you guys to the rest of your team."
A portal appeared next to Zeus, and from it came a black haired boy with brown eyes, riding a skeletal horse with another girl.
"Meet Stefan, son of Hades, and Daisy, daughter of Hecate, " Zeus said, gesturing toward the girl and the boy. "Now, you guys alone won't be able to do the mission by yourselves, so Hades, Stefan's father, and Thatnos, agreed to let some people come from the underworld to help you guys."
From the portal came two more people. The first one was a boy about sixteen years old with jet-black hair and sea-green eyes. He was smiling while holding a pen in his mouth,
And behind him came a girl with long, curly blonde hair and grey eyes. He grinned as she looked at me, Beth, Calypso, Stefan, and Daisy and said, "So this is the team Hades and Thatnos mentioned."
"This here is Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase," Zeus introduced the girl and the boy.
Percy, the boy, locked eyes with Calypso, but quickly looked away. Calypso suddenly looked angry again. Annabeth saw this and quickly stepped between them.
"Let's not get carried away, now," she said.
"You're right," Zeus said. He pointed to his left and said, "If you head that way, you should be able to find the cyclopes new headquarters."
"Why can't you just go and take them all out yourself," Percy said. "You are the king of the gods after all, right?"
"You never change, Percy," Zeus said, sighing and shaking his head. "We're counting on you guys. Good luck!"
With that, he disappeared in a small tornado, leaving us alone on the island.
"This reminds me of the last time we went on a quest with Jason, Piper, Leo, Frank, and Hazel," Annabeth said.
"Yeah," Percy said. "Now, since we're going to be a team, we need a team name. Any ideas?"
"How about Team Seven?" Beth suggested.
Annabeth shook her head. "Let's just do something simple. Hmm . . . How about Team Olympus?"
Percy smiled and said, "Leave it to my Wise Girl to come up with a great idea."
"Your Wise Girl, you say?" Annabeth said.
"So do we all agree?" Percy said quickly, changing the subject.
Everyone except Stefan nodded their heads. Percy looked at him and said, "We need everyone's approval. What do you think?"
Stefan shrugged. "I don't care."
"Then it's a yes!" I said. "Team Olympus it is!"
"Then let's get going, Team Olympus!" Percy yelled.

AND THAT'S A WRAP! GOOD JOB EVERYBODY!
Thanks for all of you who continued to read this book anyway, and sorry for the ending. I wanted to keep on going, but I ran out of ideas, so I just decided to end it. (Truth is, I got lazy.)
So I'm planning to make a sequel, where Jake and Beth, Calypso, Stefan and Daisy, Percy and Annabeth, all go on their quest. My question is:
"SHOULD I DELETE SON OF HADES AND BEGIN WITH THE SEQUEL, OR FIRST FINISH SON OF HADES WITH JUST A FEW CHAPTERS AND THEN BEGIN THE SEQUEL?"
Up to the readers, if there's still that many still reading this book. Tell me in the comments section, and will stop taking suggestions on August 3.
Goodbye, everyone!
