Leo-

Okay, it's McShizzle time.

I was excited, mostly because I had been going over strategy and plans for today.

I guess you could call today D-Day. If you're looking for the pun in that, there is none, I always expect myself to make puns, but right now, I'm focusing.

HA I never focus! What am I saying?!

FOCUS HOT STUFF, YOU GOT THIS.

I walked over to Jason, "We Ready for a part two?"

"Yeah, just don't die this time," he chuckled, putting his hand on my shoulder and pushing his glasses up.

"You're one to talk," I smirked, referring to his death. Yippee. "But don't worry Jace, I'll be fine."

I made a ball of fire in my hand, to signify that I'm 'all fired up.'

"Good luck Leo, I hope I won't see you in Elysium after this," Jason walked away to Percy, probably discussing some strategy.

What Jason Said was really pissing me off, this is a fucking war! No time to remind me that you won't be coming back! I wanted to throw a brick at him just because of it!

Ughghhghghsnjsbshsnsjhzbsnjzhab.

Anyways, I walked over to Piper, knowing she'd at least pretend she wasn't gonna die again.

"Hey Pipes!" I grinned, she turned around and smiled. The person she was just talking to, Drew, didn't seem to happy about the interruption, but she can go and fu-

She can go and be patient. That's what I was gonna say, whatever you thought was very wrong. Very. Wrong.

"Hey Leo, What'd you need?" Piper asked after whispering 'one second,' to Drew.

"Do you think your charmspeak will be able to do anything? Even for a moment?"

"I was just talking about that with Drew, we were thinking that if we both tried to charmspeak Gaia at the same time, it might be able to put her back to sleep," Piper explained, looking back at Drew.

"Do you think there's a good chance? And would it make sure to keep her asleep for a long while?" I asked, hoping to be able to calculate the probability.

"I'd guess it'd keep her asleep for at least a hundred years. It's a good chance, but we'll have to find out ourselves," Drew explained. Piper nodded and played with the feather in her hair.

"Alright, That should be enough to take her down, thanks for the info!" I grinned and walked to the next person: Annabeth.

Annabeth and I are the teams geniuses, so if anyone can help me figure out a good game plan, it's her. Too bad she's gonna die too.

Fuck you Valdez! Stop thinking about that!

Annabeth was sitting on one of the picnic tables, talking to Percy and Jason.

"Annnnnie, can we talkkkkkk?"

"Valdez! What'd I tell you about calling me Annie!" She stomped over to me, getting really close to my face, which unfortunately required her to slouch down..

"Not to do it!" I smirked.

"And What'd you do?!" She growled.

"I did it!" I closed my eyes and grinned widely.

When I opened my eyes again Annabeth just rolled her eyes at me.

"What'd you need?" She asked, standing up again. Why is everyone around me so tall! I'm only 5'6! That's not all that short! Have you seen Hazel? She's short. Not me!

Not to mention coach Hedge! He's 5'0! I tower over him!

Sorry, a bit off topic there.

"Earth to Leo?" Annabeth waved her hand in front of my face.

SHE WAS SLOUCHING DOWN AGAIN I CANNOT DO THIS!

Okay Leo, forget about it! It's not important!

"I've returned to the homeland," I smiled and looked UP at Annabeth.

"Have you? Well What'd you wanna tell me?" She asked, looking DOWN at me.

"Piper said she and Drew could probably charmspeak Gaia to sleep again, you think thats a good bet? I don't want to rely on that plan too much, but it could help big time," I explained.

"Hmm.. it could work, But Piper would need to get close to Gaia again, so instead of you sacrificing yourself like last time..." Annebeth looked around at all the demigods, and the avengers that were there, "we'd need someone that's gonna die no matter what."

"I'll do it." A voice from behind me said.

"L-Luke?" Annabeth stuttered and furrowed her brows. I turned around, and sure enough, the blond boy with the scar running up his cheek stood there, TOWERING OVER ME.

"Didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I can do it. I want to make it up to everyone, what I did before... I don't want that to be what I'm known for anymore." Luke explained, biting his bottom lip.

"You already made up for it, Luke," Annabeth sighed, "why do you think you died and went to Elysium?"

Luke looked  DOWN at the ground.

I didn't know much about what happened with Luke, or what happened at Camp Half Blood before I arrived, but what I do know is that Luke was like a host of sorts for Kronos.

I also know he killed him self to defeat Kronos.

That did redeem him, in my eyes at least.

"Look, I'm gonna die anyways. Might as well die like I had before." Luke gave a small half-smile.

Annabeth sighed, "Fine. You'll be the one to distract Gaia so Piper and Drew can get close enough to her. I'm counting on you, Okay?"

Luke nodded, and looked DOWN at me, "any ideas on how I can distract her?"

I nodded, "Annabeth, that Tony guy is good with mechanics, right?"

Annabeth nodded, "according to Percy."

"Follow me, Luke."

Luke nodded and followed behind me.

Things are starting to get interesting.
