Chapter 24 - Is This The Beginning Or The End?

Previously 

"With Order's rule on Earth, the planet will gain power beyond your imagination," Koios spoke up. "It would be best if you surrender. Do not forget that I have the gift of Prophecy and I can tell you truthfully that only darkness awaits if you do not."

Theron laughed a laugh that held no humor. "I would rather take my chances with gorgon's blood then believe a word you say, Titan. We will not surrender and we will fight to our last breath. So I will offer you this; Surrender now and your time in Tartarus will be limited."

Enceladus narrowed his eyes as Koios growled. "Very well," the bane of Athena said. "Let the war begin."

Now

Annabeth watched as Theron walked up to the two children of Gaia. This war was more advance then everything she had fought in the past. Kronos, Gaia, Tartarus. They all seemed like Elysium compared to the enemy they were facing now. Order and End. The two of the four eldest Primordials. From her research, she only found that Order was the Primordial of Destruction while End was in charge of destroying creation. The four Primordials were like the bane of one another. Born from the mind of the Cosmos, Void, Chaos, Order, and End were each given a corner of Cosmos's soul. Void and Chaos being the embodiments of creation while Order and End were the embodiments of destruction. Eventually, war broke out among the family causing Cosmos's fading and Order and End's imprisonment. Now, the two corrupt Primordials broke free of there bonds and were waging war on their siblings. Most of the war seemed to be happening on Earth. Unfortunately. 

"-beth? Annabeth? ANNABETH CHASE!" Annabeth was thrown from her thoughts when her best friend, Thalia, screamed her name.

"Oh- yes, Thals?" Annabeth asked sheepishly.

"Finally!" the Daughter of Zeus exclaimed. "We've been trying to get your attention for the past five minutes. Me and a few others wanted to know where you wanted us." 

Annabeth bit back the response to correct her older friend's grammar. Now was not the time for teaching. "You and the Apollo campers can set up in the trees. Try to take down as many as monsters as possible."

Thalia nodded and started screaming at her Hunters and the Apollo campers. Annabeth turned towards the other cabin counselors. 

"Clarisse, bring the Ares, Athena, and other war god's children to the front lines. Travis, Connor, and Leo take the Hermes, Hephaestus and other minor demigods to set traps for the monsters. When you are done, report back to me. Demeter, Dionysus, and other nature campers will stick to the sidelines. Try to use your powers to slow the monsters down. Poseidon, Zeus, and Hades's cabins will be right behind the Ares cabin. Use your powers to help the war campers. Aphrodite cabin, stay on the sidelines with Demeter and Dionysus or behind the Big Three cabins. Fend off any stragglers. Everybody else, fill in where is needed. Go!" Annabeth watched the campers scramble off to get into their designated position.

"Good work, Annabeth." the daughter of Athena turned around to see her mother smiling proudly at her. She was dressed in golden armor, standing tall and at attention. Her dark hair was tied up in a ponytail that cascaded down her backside.

"Mom," Annabeth murmured, she started to bow.

"Do not bow to me, daughter." Athena interrupted, still smiling. "You have proven yourself to be a true child of mine a long time ago. I am very proud of you."

Annabeth could not process the feelings she was experiencing. Happiness? Excitement? Satisfaction? She felt tears well up in her eyes and quickly wiped them away.

"Th-thank you." Annabeth stuttered.

"Now, I do believe we have a certain Giant to stop?" Athena questioned. She snapped her finger and she suddenly held a spear and shield, one that was similar to Thalia's. Annabeth smiled and nodded.
