Charybdis
"Oh woah, okay," Percy said as Charybdis came on the screen, "No trigger warning, cool."
Piper shook her head, "Percy, what are you going on about?"
"That's Charybdis, there was a time where I thought she killed my brother and Clarisse."
"I-" Will shook his head, "You scary me."
Percy grinned, "Thank you."
[ODYSSEUS]
You must be who Hermes mentioned
"Did we skip a song? I swear we skipped a song," Hazel asked.
Frank shook his head, "It's probably just a time skip."
A monster here to block my way
I'd like to hurry up and end this
So if you don't have much to say
Then oh, bring it on
I'm not dyin' here, I'm still fightin' here
Annabeth's eyes widened as she noticed Odysseus' fatal flaw, one that she and many of her half-siblings have, hubris. She just really hoped it didn't bit him in the ass.
I'm holdin' on
'Til I see it through, 'til I've beaten you
[CHARYBDIS roars]
I already know your tactics
When you swallow, you attack with whirlpools that attract prey
"His Athena training is coming out," Jason joked.
But I see a disadvantage
'Cause I don't even have to kill you, I just have to avoid you
See, if you don't spit it out soon, all that water will destroy you
"Is that how you defeated Charybdis?" Reyna asked Annabeth and Percy.
Annabeth blushed, she turned to Percy, silently asking if he wanted to be the one to answer the ex-praetor's question.
"We never actually defeated Charybdis," he admitted. All of the demigods (other than Thalia and Nico) turning to them shocked. They didn't know that Annabeth and Percy could face a monster and not defeat them.
Oh, bring it on
'Til you're out of breath, 'til there's nothing left
I'm holdin' on
'Til I'm in the clear, 'til I'm out of here
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[CHARYBDIS roars, waves crash]
"He made it out!" Will cheered, he turned to Nico, grinning excitedly. Nico felt himself smiling softly at Odysseus' feat.
[ODYSSEUS]
There, I see it
The island I'vе been searching for
Home, I've rеached it
My wife and son are past these shores
"He finally made it!" Hazel joined in with Will's cheers, Frank joining shortly after.
Annabeth smiled, glad that Odysseus was finally about to see his wife and son again, "Isn't it too easy?" Annabeth asked.
Leo nodded, why would Hermes give Odysseus the wind bag if he didn't need it?
Holding on
I am almost there, my love, don't be scared
Hold on
I am on my way, I'll be there today
Penelope
"Awwww," Hazel awed as she watched fake Penelope and Odysseus hug, she couldn't wait to see the real thing.
[ODYSSEUS, spoken]
What?
"Wait-"
No, no!
"DAD?! Why?!!!!!"
Annabeth hated that she was right, it was easy and unfortunately nothing with the gods is easy.
AUTHOR NOTE -
Sorry that this is only a short chapter, the song is short and while it's one of my favourites, there really isn't much to react to.
