I felt bad from attacking first. I also felt bad for staying back. I saw how everyone attacked the 5 guys but it's not like I could've done anything. I couldn't fight with a sword, or even carry a sword. I just hanged back to watch the scene. It seemed like Percy and Jason were holding off Annabeth and 8 other campers easily, occasionally Jason would fly up with Percy to avoid an attack. Will seemed to have no problem against Leah and the 5 campers. Even Lance was having no trouble with Andrew and Piper. The two other campers were on the ground unconscious. Then there was Zack and Nico. Zack seemed to have a problem fighting. Granted he had never even used a sword before, unless you count the times he used one on Wii Sports, but still he seemed to be barely blocking Nico's attacks. They all seemed to know what they were doing. That's when I heard a shuffle from behind me. I drew an arrow and spun around. I heard a low growl, then I heard more growls. From all around me I began to see shadows, big shadows of what appeared to be dogs. Then I saw them. They were dogs, or at least they looked like them. They were as big as bears and seemed twice as powerful. I heard the fighting from behind me stop. Then I heard Zack yell my name. I shot my arrow at one of the bear/dog, and ran in the opposite direction towards Zack. Behind me I was chased by a pack of those bear/dogs.

"What are those things?!" I yelled at the crew. All the other campers were unconscious on the ground except for Jason, Annabeth, Will, Lance, Andrew, Nico, and Zack.

"Hell hounds." Nico and Zack said in unison.

"How did you know that Zack?" Nico looked surprised.

"He studied Greek Mythology as a hobby." Lance answered before Zack could.

"Well, let's get those Hell hounds!" Andrew yelled and ran at them. Jason, Nico, and Lance followed. Will stayed back to check on the campers and Annabeth helped him out. I ran into Zack as he hugged me.

"You okay?" Zack asked me.

"I think so. I don't think I was hurt."

"Well, try to shoot those things from over here okay? I'm going to help out Will and Annabeth." Zack then walked to the nearest camper. I looked up at the scene. Andrew had lost his sword somewhere but he was still fighting. I was making roots and vines appear to hold the hell hounds in place. Jason was shooting lightning bolts from his hands at and Nico was alongside Lance stabbing the hell hounds that Andrew had trapped. Then I saw another hell hound. One creeping up at Andrew from behind. I drew an arrow and shot it. The arrow flew inches from Andrews face and hit the hell hound disintegrating it. Andrew looked mad for a moment then looked back and smiled instead.

"It looks like there are more and more hell hounds appearing. We have to get out of here." Annabeth said.

"They're going to be too many to handle if more keep appearing." Will agreed. As if on cue a second wave of hell hounds appeared out of the shadows. "Okay, we have to go now!" Will yelled.

Nico, Lance, Andrew, and Jason came running towards us. Nico reached the campers on the ground that were now touching each other by the hands.

"Looks like i'll have to spend more time in the infirmary." Nico smiled at Will. Then touched the nearest camper and then disappeared into the shadows.

"What was that?" I asked amazed.

"Shadow travel. It's a Hades this." Will said and the rest of them began to run. Hell hounds were appearing out of no where. More and more each time. Then they appeared right in front of us. We were surrounded.

"What now?" Zack asked. Then the hell hounds attacked. Zack and I were in the middle of the circle trying not to get killed. That's when hell hound took a hold of Lance and began to pull him off to the side. "Lance!" Zack yelled and ran after him. As he reached the hell hound he extended his hand as spoke in a different dialect. Ancient Greek. Then the hell hound let go of Lance and fell asleep. Before Lance could even say thank you, hell hounds surrounded the two of them. We were outnumbered. That's when I heard a voice in my head.

"Use your power. You and your brother can defeat them all. Use your power. You and your can defeat them all." My power? I didn't know what the voice was talking about but I walked out of the front of the circle and Zack followed me.

"What are you guys doing?" Jason called out. I ignored him. I extended my hand and began to chant. I didn't know what I was doing but it felt right. Then Zack began to glow. A blue glow. And he extended his hand as well. Then in unison we spoke.

"Sleep." And the hell hounds stopped growling and one by one fell asleep. In amazement I turned around to face Zack. Instead he was looking above my head. I looked around and the others we're doing the same. I looked up. I saw a pair of twin reed torches.

"Hecate. You're a daughter of Hecate." Annabeth said as she walked up to her. "Goddess of magic, sorcery, witchcraft, necromancy, and the mist."
