Two hours later we packed up and left the building we stayed in, and I hugged Luna goodbye.

"Sleep well?" Tom asks me.

"Yep, you?"

"Yeah, the pillows are like marshmallows!" Tom smiles, I just chuckle and pat him on the head playfully. Henery walks up beside Nini. Nini sighs and puts her hand on her head.

"Do you need something, Henery?" She sighs.

"Nope, can I not walk or something princess?"

"Ugh..." Nini groans. Luke shoves Henery making him making fall.

"Hey, whats your problem man?!" Henery shouts.

"You, leave my sister alone." Luke answers.

"I'm not doing anything to your sister 'Polar Bear' Henery gives him a nickname.

"You're annoying her."

"I don't think I am."

"Know what, your good with fire. Set yourself on fire." Luke grins. Henery punches Luke in the eye

"Oi, boys quit it," I command.

"Oh great, the weakling." Luke mumbles.

"Say that louder Luke?"

"You're weak!" Luke shouts. That's it, he's asking for it. I kick his stomach while he's on his knees. Nini pushes me, and I fall off a short cliff, I hang on to the edge with my body just dangling over hot lava.

"You know what?" Tom goes towards Nini, Nini walks backward as she goes towards the edge, while Luke is on the ground he grabs Tom's ankle and Tom trips. Nini loses her balance and almost falls off; Anna grabs her hand, so she doesn't fall. Archie runs to the edge and helps me up.

"Luke, I will kill you seriously." Peter scoffs.

"Hey, I didn't ask to be here!" Luke shouts.

"Well, you got yourself here!" Ally rolls her eyes.

"We never asked to fight you three; we were all nice to you and peaceful." I calmly say.

"Wel- Yo- We-" Nini starts.

"You only tried to kill us cause well, that's your 'destiny' your father gave you. Our parents don't choose our destiny's. We do. You can either try to get yourselves killed by us or leave us alone. Simple." I walk away continuing this quest.

"Well, at least our parents notice us. Cough cough Percy?" Nini chuckles. That's it enough with being humble; I run towards Nini as I push her off the cliff, before she falls into lava I grab her hand. It's just supposed to be a threat; I'm too fabulous to kill anyone pfft.

"I will drop you, quit it! After this quest, I don't wanna see you, or talk to you. Whether we're in the same camp or not!" I help her up then punch her in the stomach, Luke walks towards me, but Archie and Tom stop him. Luke helps her up. I dust myself off, and we all start to proceed walking again. A few quiet moments later, we hear thumps erupting off in the distance. We look around

"Er... T do you know what that was..?" Drake asks. Lava splashes up next to tom, and I pull his arm towards me, so he doesn't burn.

"Jesus Tom.." Kailey groans.

"You had me shook there for a second if Tatiana wasn't here.." Ally mumbles. Thumps continue to be heard. I see a huge figure in the distance

"What's that..?" Ally questions, a big rock flies towards us.
