Jason "Jay" Chastain:

Apollo turns to me, the sun reflecting in his eyes, and I bring the butt of my sword to ram against his jaw. I take the opportunity and kick him backwards, his back crinkling inhumanly as he bends over the side and falls off. A smile treks across my face and I take the reins to the chariot, the power trickling up and down my fingers at the touch.

I slip the walkie-talkie from my belt and bring it up to my lips, slowing down the chariot enough for my voice to be heard on the other end.

"Gem, it's done." I report. "Apollo's your meteroid to deal with now."
I'm never what I like
I'm double sided
And I just can't hide
I kind of like it
When I make you cry
'Cause I'm twisted up, twisted up
Inside

Semiautomatic

Andrew

Upon closer inspection, I found that there weren't any guards on the streets. Just Torches to light the streets for pedestrians.

"Andrew, I'm already in the city. We're fighting at the main entrance, go ahead and help us hold back the Olympus guards." I heard Ivan say over the radio.

"On my way." I creeped my through the streets of the city, making sure to stick to the shadows.

By the time I made it all the way to the gates where Ivan was fighting the guards, his forces were diminishing slowly.

Looks like he needs a distraction

I made about five clones out of the fog in the city and placed them around the force that was defending against Ivan.

On my mark, spear the back line...

Mark!


Me and the five of my clones made spears out of the vapor in air, and threw them at the back like of the Olympus guards. All five guards went down, several of the surrounding guards turned around and looked my way. The clones and I sprinted towards the line and hacked away.

"Did somebody call for some back up?" I say into the mic, I hear Ivan laugh into the mic.

As I circled the chaos on the air on my Pegasus, I let my draw arm relax for a moment. I would have a lot of clear shots coming up shortly--didn't want to waste any arrows on this mess. Rayah, Rose and Jay were catching up to Apollo; once they were finished with him, my job would be a lot easier. I watched smugly as Jay jumped onto Apollo's chariot and shoved him out with a few well-placed kicks. Our parents always seemed to underestimate us.

There went Apollo. See ya, loser.

Then something in the distance caught my eye. It was a gray pegasus, with Athena on its back. Athena--my mother. I had been saving an arrow for her. I nocked it and drew my arm back. Drawing a longbow was slightly different from drawing a regular bow--to get the extra power I needed, I had to draw my hand all the way back to my right ear. I did it with a shoulder turn and compression of the back. In theory, I only had to pull my arm back about eight inches--the rotation did the rest.

I aimed carefully, using the shaft of the arrow as a sight line. One shot was all it would take.

Wait--don't hit Gem!

Gem fell out of the sky not six feet in front of me, pushing herself away from her injured Pegasus. If I had shot when I wanted to, I would've skewered Gem. That would've been really, really bad.

I glanced around, looking for Athena, but I didn't see her. I swore loudly, slipped the arrow back into my quiver, and shot off into the fray. I would find her. I would find her, and I would kill her, if it was the last thing I ever did.

Rayah

As I was walking back to see Gem I froze when I saw someone familiar. Almost to familiar. My mother. I smiled evilly at Aphrodite- her prefect skin over-lapping me. I pull out my knife and she turns around, kicking other gods' asses. I was impressed. She's totally been training.

She looks to a person in our army, and punches his head off. I watch with amazement. I took a step closer when I saw Emmy slip somewhere. I turned my glance back to my mother and she was gone.

"DAMMIT!" I swore loudly, throwing my knife into the ground and took off running towards Gem.
All you need is faith, trust, and a little bit of pixie-dust!

Rosarie - Artemis

My blood roared in my ears as I tried to steady myself. Chloe's brief touch helped the nerves, though fear and burning adrenaline still clouded my mind. I waited in the chariot as I watched Jason shove Apollo away, his face still masked with shock and confusion. He took control of his chariot and raced off, in search of someone else.

I turned to Rayah when I noticed she had a distant look in her eyes. I followed her gaze to catch a glimpse of soft long hair and glowing skin; it must have been Aphrodite. For a moment she stepped forward, only to freeze and scowl. Without another word, she raced off. I squinted and saw the faint outline of someone, Gem, I think, and realized that was who Rayah was running towards.

I burrowed my brows and clutched the reins of my chariot uncertaintly. I was never a good rider. Without a second though, I leapt off it, landing lightly on my feet. My arrows were still in place and my holsters still intact. I scurried a long the shadows, waiting to catch some sense of the person I came to kill.

Demi

I had to look for my father or else I would be in massive trouble. I had agreed to take on another god but I wanted to verse Ares.

Maria, your Ares girl not Hectates...


Ivan Buttlestock

Ivan was smiling as he saw Andrew sprint towards him. Naturally they got along. They were cousins after all.
"Hard to get up here?" Andrew asked with a grin on his face.
"It was fun. I can still feel the dead inside my soul. Everyone of them we kill, comes on to our side undead."
"Hey, its better nothing i guess." Replied Andrew with a grin still on his face.
"Shall we go kill our fathers?"
"Cant wait."
They stormed off with all there undead allies following them. They rounded a corner and saw the palace straing them in the face. They ran at straight at the door but something stopped them in there tracks.
"You can never win.A voice boomed out. We created you. You think we dont know what your powers are? FOOLS! You shall die by the very hand that created you."
Ivan looked around stunned for a secong. His eyes fixed on Andrew. They wre having a converstaion without talking. They would have to wait for the others to get up here.
Stop for a while and think about this.

What if we used to be able to make wishes

But then someone wished we couldn't :O

I jumped off my Pegasus before it touched down, swinging my longbow over my shoulder. "Gem!" I called. Gem was waiting with Rayah, Rose, and a few others. I ran over to them.

"Gem," I said. "Andrew, Ivan, and Ivan's zombies are already at the summit. And Jay's still flying around in that chariot, and I don't know where Demi went..."

"Fine," Gem answered. "They'll be on their own for a little bit. We're going to go for the palace. Everyone ready?" We all nodded.

"Great," Gem said. "Let's go."

I followed Gem up the path to the summit of Olympus, grabbing my knife for something to play with. My power was bugging me. I didn't tell Gem--no need to scare everyone--but things were about to get really crazy.

Gemini "Gem" Randa

The palace from the outside was great, the interior even better. It was truely a palace fit for the gods. This palace was right for me, as the next ruler of Olympus. We saw ghost like human servants running around and eventually disappearing. chancellors hung high above the groung, plated floor's and even elevators going up to the high to the upper floor's. We took an elevator up to the top, where the gods would surely be. We exited the elevator to a long narrow hallway, any guards that would have been around were out defending Olympus. We came to a large gold door, this had to be them. I turned to them and nodded, they all nodded me back.

"Guys, this won't be the final battle, I can tell you guys now. Once they get weak they'll run on us." I said and they all understood.

I pushed the door open and walked in, I heard pleading at the end. It sounded like a girls voice. We came to the throne room, and a woman was pacing around in front of them.

I was weeping as much for him as her; we do sometimes pity creatures that have none of the feeling either for themselves or others.
