Annabeth's POV

(At Olympus)

"So you're saying that we should train the campers harder?" Ares asked with a raised eyebrow "But they're already skilled, especially my children"

"Yes and no" Commander crossed his arms. "We train them harder because obviously they are all weak"

The gods shifted in their seats, annoyed by the comment, but seemed to know better then to attack Commander.

"We're not weak!" Aidan yelled, that idiot.

"Oh really? Hmm... Okay sorry you aren't" Commander took a step forward. "You're pathetic"

"Arrrgh!" Aidan snarled and started for his weapon but Poseidon stood up.

"Stop! We cannot fight each other Aidan" He sat back down "What we need is a hero"

"Yeah a hero!" Nico said sarcastically "Yay! Let's get a hero and then kill him because he helped us, whoo hoo!"

"Silence!" Zeus boomed but Nico continued.

"And let's kill him then make the campers believe he was a traitor!"

"Nico..." Hades said in a warning tone.

"Oh what a great ruler you are!" Nico mocked bowed and that's when all hell broke loose.

Zeus lifted his master bolt, Poseidon grabbed his tridant, Athena pointed her spear at him, Ares threw a knife, Apollo got his bow ready, Artemis was getting ready to turn Nico into an Antelope, Aphrodite glared, Dionysus snored, and Demeter said something about cereals.

"Wow, you really haven't changed have you?" Luke snorted. "Kill Di Angelo and let's see if Chaos is happy about that."

The gods coughed and returned to their seats.

"That's more like it" Commander cooed and Poseidon growled at him.

"Stop being disrespectful! I didn't like you the first day you arrived!" The god roared.

"I don't care if you don't like me, hell. I'd hate it if you loved me and kissed me all smoochi smoochi"

"Man, just stop" Luke said and Commander just stood there.

He acted so weirdly after the attack. He would start a fight and annoy people, it just wasn't him.

"Meeting dismissed" Zeus declared and the gods were gone in a poof.

"I'm gonna kill you! I am going to kill-" Aidan lifted a fist but Katie Gardner stopped him.

"Gosh, just cut it out!"

Commander yawned and nudged Luke. In a blink, they were gone too.

Luke's POV

Okay so, I noticed Percy was acting differently...

He seemed more sensitive, he yelled a lot more, he taunted the campers, and he just got...Well, rude.

After he teleported us to our cabin, I placed my hand on his shoulder.

"Hey, man. I need to talk to you" I said quietly.

"Yeah? Okay" He replied and shook off his hood since no one was watching.

"Is something bothering you?" I asked after he sat down to munch on some candies.

"No, why?" He said with a full mouth, not meeting my eyes.

"Mmm hmm?" I raised my eyebrows. "C'mon bro. Just tell me"

Percy just munched on some more candies.

Munch.

Munch.

Crunch.

Gulp.

"Perce!" I yelled and he jumped slightly.

"Okay, okay fine" He sighed and set down his bag of candies. "You know what that leader of the army told us? He said that there was a second in command that was much more powerful than us... But not powerful enough to overthrow Nyx and Tartarus."

"Yeah, so?"

"Don't interrupt me" Percy scowled. "Well I'm worried, what if the campers die? It would all be my fault because I couldn't defeat them, and the world would turn upside down."

"Is that why you're going hard on them? So they are prepared?" I rested my chin on my hands.

"Yes, but what if they aren't prepared enough? What if the enemies are beyond our limits? What if-" Percy looked like he was going to explode so I shushed him.

"Don't worry, you're a great teacher and the campers will manage" I reassured him.

"But-" I shushed him again.

"And if that doesn't work, we always have Plan B"

Percy nodded, "Yeah... Plan B"
