Chapter 54: The Battle of the Olympians (New Version)

Serena turned her back as the others were filled with silence. Sue roamed her sight around, her stormy eyes were filled with sadness as she looks at her friends, she felt the sudden change like everyone around her now is not what they used to be.

Serena halted when she heard a crunch under her feet, she softly cursed inside her head. One bad move and she'll be cold just like the season. Aizen saw her situation clearly, he amusedly watches her as she began to mumble various curses.

"I want to punch Aizen in the face right now," Aizelle whispered.

Phoenix looked at her curiously and the shift his gaze towards Aizen who was now smirking as he massages his jaw while watching Serena, "Let him be," Phoenix said.

Light's brows wrinkled, under the deafening silence, he can hear the loud thumping of feet and he can tell that it is approaching into their direction. Aizen's smirk vanished when he heard the loud marching of feet, he gently walked his way towards Serena and pulled her out of the thin floor of ice.

Serena was caught in surprise and when she looked behind the floor was already destroyed, the chunks of ice were already falling in the cold water.

"Be alert—" Serena forcefully pushed Aizen which made him tighten his jaw while looking at her.

"Position," Light meaningfully said.

They were about to ask him when a flickering holographic screen appeared in front along with a loading bar at the top of their heads. As it was completed, the data of Light's plan appeared.

Both Serena and Sue made a platform using their blessings, Aizelle hops into Serena's pearl while and Light used Sue's clouds to watch the enemies from above.

The others were left at the ground, they all someone their weapons while waiting for Light's signal. "Aizen, four reapers at your left. Sue, three reapers at the three next to you. Phoenix, five reapers in front. And Serena, two reapers will show at your right." they all nodded.

Aizelle summoned her Legendary Bow, waiting for Light's order.

The thumping of feet vanquish, and it made them grips at their weapon tightly. The Primus' eyes were leering as they wait for their prey to land their first attack, the rustle coming from the icy bushes became the signal for their enemies attack.

And just like Light said, the number of reapers and the place they were hiding was accurate.

The dance of the demigods began, the fight that has been choreographed since the beginning. Their swords gleamed in the moonlight, the loud clanging of the swords echoed.

Phoenix shuffled to his side and waited for his opponent's attack, his opponent plunged his sword to his stomach that he mightily deflected. His amber eyes blaze as he stains his sword with his opponent's blood.

"What is my role, then?" Aizelle asked Light.

Even in the middle of the fight, Light's childish attitude didn't disappear. He didn't speak nor glance to Aizelle which made Aizelle look beneath her.

Aizen's opponents were now down under their knees. Sue's opponents were enjoying the fluffiness of the cloud that were covering them, and when she snaps her fingers the milky clouds turned angry, bolts of lighting began to flicker on it as the lightning showers to her opponents. And Serena was languidly looking at her opponents whom she kick and were immediately defeated.

Aizelle heaved a sigh. Her rosy eyes were fixed in the direction of the forest, she can see another hoard of reapers coming to their direction. "Phoenix," Aizelle called.

Light secretly scowled. He was about to speak when Aizelle jumped out of Serena's pearl. "What?"

Aizelle pointed the forest, "A lot of reapers are hiding inside there."

"And you want to do it?"

"Yes," Aizelle answered.

Phoenix shook his head while smiling. He looked at Serena, simply asking her to bring down the pearl which Serena immediately understood. Phoenix hops in the pearl and helps Aizelle to climb.

Light glared at Phoenix while watching them which made Aizen laugh.

"Is that guy jealous?" Kaki asked Aizen while pointing Light.

"I think so," Aizen answered.

"Well, he should," Kaki muttered, his eyes shifted to Blue who was just watching them, "Your girl isn't fighting, is she a display?" Kaki added. Aizen smiled at him and simply ruffled his hair.

A humongous magic circle appeared, at the top was a sakura pink and at the bottom was a blazing red magic circle. The thick wall of ice near that was sticking at the walls of Achaea began to melt along with the floor. Their attention was fixed at the two demigods who were attempting to light the night of winter solstice.

The enormous magic being released was filling the surrounding with eeriness. Both Phoenix and Aizelle shut their eyes, they began to murmur gibberish words, and as soon as they opened their eyes, they were glimmering.

Aizelle held her Legendary Bow elegantly as she lifts it, Phoenix was holding her hand that was holding the bow. "Ready?" Phoenix whispered.

Aizelle nodded.

The magical circles began to glow as she releases the arrow, "UNISON CHARGE: HELIOS ARROWS!" they shouted. The arrow was scorching with the blaze of the sun, and as it soared the air it multiplies, and in the middle of the night sky, the arrows brilliance as if the sun was replacing the radiance of the moon.

It plummets to the direction of the forest, screams, and screeches echoed inside as the fire began to spread in the forest.

Light pursed his lips and jumped to Serena's pearl, he bitterly snatches Aizelle's hand away from Phoenix and carried Aizelle away from the squad.

Phoenix covered his mouth, he was containing his laughter. "Shit, that was funny," he whispered. He gave his thanks to Serena when he jumped off the pearl.

"Kasama mong nagtraining si Aizelle?" Serena asked.

"I thought, you don't know us?" Phoenix asked.

Serena rolled her eyes and hid under the shade of an unscratched tree,"Shut up,"

"Well, to answer your question, yes, we trained together," Phoenix said. Kaki looked at him meaningfully, he was looking at Phoenix as if he was warning him about something, "And... Apollo and Eros thought our blessings were compatible,"

"Aww... The Primus was having a reunion," They all looked behind and saw another group of demigods, unscartched and deadly just like them. "I'm jealous, Aizen and Sue are together again," Nicole teased.

Sue scowled. "Shut the fuck up,"

"I'm envious meron kang knight shining—"

"Ate girl, kaunting respeto naman oh. Kasama ni Aizen 'yung girlfriend niya." Phoenix pointed Blue and then suddenly shifted his glance to Serena who was hiding, "Nandito rin 'yung akala kong magiging girlfriend."

"Tangina, Phoenix." Aizen mumbled.

In front of them were Nicole, Ellen, Dylan, Night and a mysterious man.

Nicole was about to walk towards Aizen when Serena languidly walk out of the shades of the tree, "Move and you're dead," her voice gave shivers to Nicole.

Nicole looked at Night who was also in a state of shock, "You are supposed to be—"

"But I am not," Serena cut.

Serena glances at her side, she can feel faint magic energy from the direction of the forest. "Beginning a fight without me?"

A show-off Serena thought. Sky appeared and sparkled a mass of water to the burning forest along with his smirk.

"Well, this is unfair," Nicole uttered. Both Phoenix and Aizen looked at Blue and Kaki, they both disappeared in a glimpse that made Nicole clasped her hands. "Just so you know, our precious Gnomeo is already fighting Juliet."

"Bristol," Sue brooded while looking at the mysterious man.

And with just a blink, they all disappeared in front of the gate of Achaea.

The battle between old friends, Sky was smiling while assessing Night, he was mocking him as Night broods at him, "Long time no see, my friend." Sky mocked.

Night's jaw tightened. And without further introduction, he summoned his sword and charged towards Sky.

Sky was laughing while laughing as he dodges all of his attacks.

"I really hate your existence, Skyler."

In the icy floor, Serena's pointed leather shoes echo as she walks towards Nicole. She evilly smiled at her as she held her chin and whispered, "Remember what I've told you before, Nicole?"

Nicole was hiding how frightened she is. The Serena in front of her was way scarier than before, "And now, for letting me glimpse at your ugly face... I shall kill you, Serena Undersea way."

Aizen mockingly rest his back under a tree, he shut his eyes, "I'm sleepy. Ang boring ba naman kasi ng kalaban ko," Aizen said.

Dylan languidly looked at him. A magnificent light suddenly surrounded them as both of them lost their consciousness.

"Huh? You finally showed yourself," Sue mocked.

A cunning smirk appeared in Bristol's lips, "I want to wring fingers around your beautiful neck. I want Phoenix to grieve for your death. I don't want you back, I want you dead. I am your first, Alexandria. Yet, you fooled me. That is the main reason I am the one who will get your life, this the wrath of the son of Nemesis, my love."

"Do you want to be defeated by me again?" Ellen asked Phoenix.

Phoenix laughed, "Try if you can defeat Apollo's son,"

The fire spreading in the forest that wasn't splashed by Sky's blessing was now frozen. Aicelyn was coldly looking at her opponent.

"You told me before that I wouldn't hate you. But you're my enemy now, am I supposed to like you?"

"Well, Gnomeo and Juliet were enemies at first," Riley meaningfully said.

"You might be Gnomeo but I am not Juliet,"
