(Percy POV)

Everyone left the room, either off to eating (not eating the couch G-man!), fixing their weapons, giving me reports (more like headaches, which Annabeth seems to see), or taking a crash (sleep). After like a billion reports, I took a crash. Dream~

You may put me in the Void, Perseus, but it doesn't stop me to destroy your love ones. Instantly, there were images of my mom, Paul, Annabeth, Thalia, Grover, Nico, Poseidon, Chiron, and camp, DESTROYED. Shred into pieces. Chaos taunted me in my dreams. He then went on to torture me, pain exploded every inch of my body.  "Percy?" a voice to familiar pierced through my dream. It was Thalia. I woke up groggily. "What?" I asked, then yawned. "The battle begins!" I snapped awake, seeing through a window in Olympus that Annabeth, Nico, Grover, the nymphs, Chiron, everyone, was defending. Thalia said urgently,"We didn't want to wake you up because you were such bad shape, but....." Thalia licked her lips. She continued,"But this could be the end." When she finished her sentence, about 5 hunters and campers fell down. I said,"We must end this madness of Erebus." Darkness encircled a group of demigods, they tried to slash through it with their swords, but you can't fight darkness. Or......maybe........YOU CAN!!!! The campers fighting the darkness fell, either unconscious, or dead. I ran out of Olympus with an idea, doesn't happen often, maybe Athena blessed me or something...whatever. I yelled,"Apollo! Sun, light!!!" Apollo seemed shocked.

(Apollo POV)

Man was i dumb, it was sunrise! The sun came up. Rise and shine! I thrusted both my hands toward the sun, instantly, the sun blazed. The darkness left us completely. Erebus winced, as if the sunlight destroyed him slowly, piece by piece. Percy ran towards Erebus, with his sword raised, said,"FIGHT FOR OLYMPUS!!!!!!!!" We fought with renewed effort. But the enemy wasn't done. Since he was darkness, he had some control over hellhounds. Mrs O'Leary. Erebus said,"Mrs O'Leary, heel!" Maybe he chose the wrong hellhound, the hellhound, instead, ran up and sank her teeth into his sword arm, causing him to drop his sword. I was getting tired, causing the sun to shine even brighter fighting against the darkness was tiring, I can't imagine how can Percy keep up with an immortal. He was mortal. Percy took the advantage of Erebus being unarmed. He slashed, hacked, bruised, cutted, then finally dropped his sword, satisfied. But the other Olympians continued. I dropped to my knees. In the background, I heard my sis, Artemis, scream my name, but I passed out.

(Artemis POV)

I should have known! Causing more light would cause him to be tired. Now, he's probably barely conscious. Percy made Erebus look like he was one of those hobos in a street, ichor all over Erebus' body. But he began chanting, the same way he destroyed Chaos. By the time the boy finished chanting, he collapsed much like the way my brother did. This time, not waiting until the sun goes down, the monsters retreated. They ran for their lives. While everywhere laid the dead, the injured, Percy, the hunters, the campers, and my brother, Apollo, god of healing.
