Leo

I went to sleep after we put every demigod aboard the Argo III. I dreamt with Jason.

He looked hurt. His circles under his eyes were black. I never thought that I would ever see Jason hurt and weak.

"Where is the Diocletian Scepter!" A deep voice demanded.

"I don't know what you are talking about"

A jolt of electricity zapped Jason. He endured it and made no noise.

He was being tortured.

"Only the Seven and the son of Hades knows" It shouted.

Jason did not open his mouth.

"Okay. Fine. We will give you ,Grace, another use. And you Valdez, if you want him back, come and get him."

The image became blurry and I saw a river, the hills in the distance, and demigods in watch towers.

I woke up. Calypso was shaking me.

"To the camp" I said. I ran towards the engine room.

Johanna

I couldn't sleep that night. The ship was full of shouts from sleeping demigods and their nightmares.

What are we going to do now?

Percy

I had a dream from Uranus.

"My lord" I said coldly. I haven't fully forgiven him for destroying my life. Apparently, he ordered Drew to do what she did to me, and he sent the sea monster after me.

"Perseus" He said, "My old HQ is destroyed, along with Seattle. In this war, the Earth has lost two million people, and the damage's worth is uncountable. Monsters regenerate faster, and nations are threatening each other with a nuclear attack."

"So what. I guess that you didn't prepare me to use diplomacy to stop a nuclear war"

"Actually", he explained, "I came to tell you that your army will return to Elysium. They came here only to give you backup while in the army, so you didn't feel like an outsider. The remaining former soldiers in my army will aid you when you need it most. They will be useful. Goodbye Perseus, may the gods be with you. By the way, your friend Leo has cracked the case."

"What case?Uranus! Wait!" And the dream vanished.

I opened my eyes and I heard a knock on my door.

"What is it Sam?" I asked.

"Um, you and Annabeth should come out. You might want to see this." Johanna said as she came in the room.

I put on some shorts and a shirt. I grabbed my bracelet. It was one of the things I kept from my time with the Sky.

We went to the hull of the ship and I looked overboard.

I could barely see anything. All I saw was ash (not the one in Pokémon, the kind that appears when you burn something), black ash. In my surroundings, ash, fire, and the smell of evil was evident.

"We are over Wyoming." Leo said, "What is in Wyoming?" He asked knowing the answer.

"Yellowstone, the Volcano. Is this the remains of it?" Annabeth asked.

Leo, Sam and Johanna nodded.

"This can't be good. There is enough lava in the volcano to cover Los Angeles and it's ash can cover America. The continent!" I exclaimed.

"You were paying attention Percy?" my girlfriend asked.

"Yes"

"Why are you awake?" Calypso said with a yawn, "Did you blew up another volcano, Percy?"

"Nah, this time it was Erebus" I said.

There was a moment of silence before Leo broke it, "We are going to get the Scepter from the camp"

"The what?" Sam asked.

"Have you ever heard about the Diocletian Scepter?" Annabeth asked.

"Yes" Sam answered.

"We have it in our possession, or at least we had." Leo explained.

"What do you mean with 'had'?" Calypso asked.

"It is in the camp, hidden from anyone, even from us" I said, "It is in the Ant Hole."

"Please remind me, who's idea was it?" I asked.

"It would been safe in there! Nobody can get in there without being ant food"

"Unless..." Leo whistled loudly. A majestic creature appeared from the clouds. "... you have giant bronze dragons in your side"  

"Umm, I have to do something" Piper said and rushed away.

"That was weird" I said.

Everybody agreed.

Well, it is done.   Do you want a small crossover chapter with Chiron, Norsemen and Carter, Sadie and Amos?

I got a surprise chapter that will come later. You will love it, then kill me and love it again.

I hope you are enjoying my story. (I guess you are because this is the second book and you're probably reading this)
