Pizza and soda for 30 semi-divine teenagers wasn't the issue. The issue was waiting for them to fall asleep. Abi was the last one to knockout around 3 in the morning. Luke, Clarisse and Percy sat at a table, as Percy waved his hand and conjured a bottle of whiskey and three glasses. Silence reigned as Percy poured a drink for each of them.

" Mars and Artemis down, 11 more to go." Percy said.

"I'll drink to that." Clarisse said.

"Same." Luke said. Taking another sip, Luke looked at Clarisse. "You okay? Clarisse."

"Why wouldn't I be." Clarisse asked, genuinely confused.

" Your boyfriend just killed your father."

"And what a father he was, the guy literally killed for fun. Mars was much more tolerable and even then Tartarus was a much better father. What about you? Any day now Hermes is going to die, you feeling any kind of way?" Clarisse asked as she took another sip.

"I led a rebellion against the ass hats. I have no problem taking them down." Silence reigned once again.

"What would you guys think if I took the Jaegers with us back home?"

"Like with us back to Chaos's home, home?" Luke asked.

"Well, yeah. I mean I know I have all of you but, all of you have your own legions. I think the Jaegers would be a nice small strike force."

" I think it's a great idea." Luke said.

"Same they love you, you love them. Have you asked your mother?"

"She already agreed. I just have to figure out how to ask them."

"Figure out how to ask who what?" Silena said, as she, Ethan and Zoe walked in, the ophiotaurus floating in a bubble of water behind them.

"YOU'RE HOME! Luke said as he bounded up towards Silena. Percy looked confused.

"How the hell didn't I feel you guys get past the barrier?" Percy said as he and Ethan high fived.

"We wanted to surprise you so we asked Ethan to erase our presence. But it appears you've been busy." Zoe said.

"Can we actually talk about that because it felt like 10% of your power was unleashed. And why are there 27…..they feel like demigods and 3 I want to say minor gods." Ethan asked.

"Percy killed Mars. Mind you this was after he offered the demigods a chance to get away. About 240 accepted. Then he offered to train them to fight against Olympus and 30 of them came forward. Then he trained them for 2 years in two days. The three 'minor gods' you felt are the captains, basically the leaders of Percy's 30 kids. Now he's thinking about taking them back with him when we're done here." Clarisse said. Ethan, Zoe and Silena whistled.

"Damn. So you finally have your own legion."

"That's if they agree. Also I have some info." Percy said as he waved his hand conjuring another bottle and 3 more glasses.

"First things first though." Percy rose from his seat and approached the ophiotaurus. Brown eyes met galaxies.

"I could never kill you Bessie, you know that. " Percy reached his hand through the water as it spread away from him. As Percy patted the ophiotaurus on its head, Bessie licked his face with familiarity. Percy waved his hand as a portal opened sending the ophiotaurus to the palace of Chaos.

"You sent it home?"

"Yeah." All 5 of his comrades looked at Percy. Feeling their eyes upon him Percy looked up.

"What?"

"What was the point then?"

"To scare them shitless. I don't need the advantage, let's make this a little fun." 2 minutes went by before all 5 warriors erupted in laughter. Zoe poured another drink and drank it in one gulp.

"With all of you here I have to tell you something Artemis told me." Laughter died down immediately. Taking a shaky breath, Zoe looked at her comrades.

"Thalia is alive. That's all she said. I don't know where she is." All of the warriors looked shocked. They knew the story. They knew of the year Percy had spent looking for his best friend. They knew about him scouring Tartarus. The trips to the underworld and him scouring every inch of the globe for her. The only one who didn't look surprised was Percy.

"I know. Mars told me. I was waiting for you to get back before I shared. He also told me why I couldn't find her. He told me where she was."

"Perseus, where is she?" Zoe asked.

"Ogygia. You and I are going to rescue her."
