A/N: I re-uploaded this chapter. I know it's shorter but don't worry. You'll seee why later.

The Armies Gather

"Your dreaming." Clarisse said coldly.

The Iris message of her father gave her a death glare, "How dare you defy me!"

"I'm siding with Percy, if you wanted to live you'd do the same."

"You will pay greatly for your disrespect!"

Clarisse swiped her hand through the image ending the message. Chris Rodriguez looked concerned, "Are you sure about this Clarisse?"

"Yes, alright everyone! Gather the weapons!" she was on the deck of the Argo II, preparing it for war, most of the Ares cabin was with her, others not so much. Clarisse was already decked out in full armor, a sword on her waist, Maimer in her right hand, and shield strapped to her left.

"Clarisse!" Will Solace called, "There here!"

Sure enough, Percy, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Leo, Thalia, Nico, and Kratos.

"Lord Kratos," Percy said, "Allow me to introduce Clarisse La Rue, daughter of Ares and one of the bravest soldiers I've ever had the honor of fighting beside."

"Percy, the Argo II is almost ready. But they'll see us coming."

"That's just fine. Leo, are any of your new attachments ready?"

"Yes."

"Then get Nyssa, Jake, and any other kid from the Hephaestus cabin that will help."

"Right."

"Daughter of Ares." Kratos said.

"Lord Kratos?"

"Come, I want to show you something I left in the original Camp Half-Blood."

Percy, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Thalia, Nico, Clarisse, Chris, and Kratos had come to Bunker 9. Kratos showed them into a hidden room that Leo didn't even know about. Hanging on the wall were the Blades of Athena and the Nemesis Whip. On a pedestal with the image of Kratos killing Hercules sat the Nemean Cestus. Then, at the back of the room a blue glow caught Percy's eye. He walked towards it. This, like all the other weapons, he had seen it many times in his dreams.

"What is that?" Clarisse asked, and the all gathered behind him.

"The blade that ended the first great war. Made from both the Heavens and the Earth. The most powerful weapon of all." He then grabbed it and held it above his head, "The Blade of Olympus!"

"Annabeth! Clarisse! Gather those who are willing to help from this camp, Jason! You and Piper will go to Camp Jupiter, her charm speak will be more useful there. After that gather them here, and await further orders."

"Right."

Jason, Piper, Reyna, Hazel, Frank, Gwen, Dakota, and several other Romans entered Camp Half-Blood.

"Is this all?" Clarisse asked.

"Afraid so." Reyna said.

"What about your sister, Queen Hylla of the Amazons?"

"I contacted her, but don't get your hopes up."

"Demigods!" Percy called standing next to Thalia's pine tree with Kratos. "It is time!"

"Then let's go." Annabeth said.

Percy, Jason, and Kratos led their army through the streets of Manhattan. Half of the hunters had rendezvous with them and sided with them. Hazel, Frank, and Reyna led the roman campers. The Gods already had the city evacuated somehow.

"Why would the Gods go through the trouble of evacuating the city when we plan to fight on Olympus?" Annabeth asked.

"Because they don't expect us to get that far." Percy said pointing.

About a mile away were hundreds of Olympus sentries and legionnaires and a few Cyclops berserkers, all led by Ares.

Percy uncapped Riptide and Kratos drew the golden blades of Athena as they blazed with fire. Jason stood with Piper as she drew Katoptris. Clarisse, clad in full armor with Maimer in one hand and a shield in the other said, "Ares is mine!"

"If you want him." Percy said, then he turned to Nico, "Nico, were gonna need reinforcements."

"I understand." Nico said and whistled for Mrs. O'Leary. And then they went into the Underworld.

"Do you really think were ready?" Annabeth asked.

"We have to be, there's no turning back now. Are you ready?"

The demigods shouted in response.

"Then let's GO!" Percy and Kratos led the charge as the war between men and Gods began.

A/N: cliffhanger.
