Lost Tales Book#1 The Last Great Prophecy

Chapter 16 Everyone loves a comeback

Percy pov

We hit the ground hard. Everyone got throne overboard. Fire raged all throughout the wreckage. We had crashed on a beach. Half the ship in shallow water the other half on land. Everyone had survived thank the gods. But we were all severely wounded. Sadie was back on her feet but we where just a small band of 12 demigods,4 magicians and 6 gods. Against a ship full of monsters,immortals and humans that wanted to kill us. "Destroyed again" Leo said his voice somber. "I don't suppose you magicians have a spell that can fix our ship" "Yeah we do" Carter confirmed "But it will take time with something this big" then he looked up "And we don't have a lot of time" we followed his gaze and saw the death ship coming at us. Then Thalia took charge "Alright everyone we're gonna need a formation. Everyone skilled with a sword form up behind Percy." Soon Carter,Nico,Annabeth,Piper,Jason,Leo,Horus ,Calypso and Bast drew their weapons and stood next to me. "Next everyone skilled with a bow on me" Frank and Will stood next to her bows drawn. "Magicians do you guys use magic for combat?" All of them nodded "Now would be a good time to use it!" Soon Horus,Isis and Ra dissipated and flowed into Carter,Sadie and Zia. No I'm serious they actually joined souls in that order. Soon Carter turned into a 10 story tall falcon headed avatar. Sadie,Walt and Zia pretty much did the same except Sadie's had the head of a kite (The bird) and wings. Walt's the head of a jackal. And Zia's the head of a hawk. They stood ready to fight."All those that don't need weapons" Thalia continued "Knock em dead. Literally." "Bes" Sadie said "Don't do the speedo thing" The god looked disappointed but he obeyed. I had no idea what Sadie meant but I got the feeling I don't wanna know. We maintained formation waiting for the impending attack. When the ship landed hundreds of monsters  charged out. Some I were familiar with others i had no idea. The had weapons,animal heads and other weird stuff for heads. Soon humans followed. Half of them were rouge half bloods fine bad. Others were traitorous magicians. Then the last wave of troops came out. They were gods. Some I recognised the boreads were in there, Kymopoleia I could believe my half sister would betray me,Jannus there's no surprise there,some Egyptian gods(They had animal heads) but the thing that scared me the most was the fact that Titans were in the mix. Like all 12 even Bob. "What you to Bob?" I asked "Sorry Percy" he responded "But Tartarus made too sweet an offer. I couldn't turn it down" "A wise choice brother" said a familiar voice I turned to see Kronos and my blood boiled. "Hello Jackson" he said "Been a while" then their leaders came out including one we didn't see. Setne,Orion,Chrysaor and Medusa. Yup old snake head herself was back. But wearing sunglasses. For obvious reasons. It would be no fun fighting a bunch of stone statues. Then someone came jumping off the bow. He stood up and I saw his face one I knew all too well. "Luke" I said coldly. He gave me a sly smile "Percy,Annabeth,Thalia,Nico. So good to see you" he said "Uhhh guys" Leo said "Who's this creep?" Luke looked hurt "You never told them about me?" He asked "And I thought they were your best friends" he laughed "All well I suppose we'll kill you either way. ATTACK!" I countered with "CHARGE" And we met on the battlefield. Everything was a blur. All I remember is taking down a ton of monsters. Before The enemy called a retreat. After they cleared up we were in worse shape than before. Everyone had bad cuts all over. We used all the necter,ambrosia and unicorn savings we could without burning ourselves up. Thankfully Calypso,Will and Zia are medical experts we were healed to the extent of their abilities. The next day the Argo2 was repaired and we were back underway but we didn't celebrate. We only rested there was nothing we could do without over extending ourselves to much. But tomorrow we'll be ready.
