"Thanks. So what do you want to know?" Rachel said, going and sitting on a simple solid wood chair draped in green cloth. Green smoke began to billow from Rachel's mouth as her head slumped and her eyes glowed green. When she spoke it was like there were three of her, all speaking in a simultaneous raspy voice. "I am the Oracle of Phobeus Apollo, Slayer of the Mighty Python. Approach Seeker and ask."

Natasha was suddenly in front of the Oracle, Percy gesturing for her to proceed.

"Will Asgard bring war to Earth?"

The Oracle opened her mouth to speak.

Fire from shores in the sky
He who loves shall say goodbye
The spy and witch shall break the bonds
That false gods keep putting on
The New God, guards and hunters three,
Shall met with this enemy
When the field of stars opens its gates, 
The serpents rage shall negate

Rachel took a shuddering breath, her eyes back to normal. "What I say?"

Percy handed her a piece of parchment and she read it. "Well have fun. Now shoo. I have masterpieces to create."

"Can I make one?"

"I'm out of water colors."

She snapped her fingers and Natasha and Percy were outside the cave, listening to loud music that shook the ground.

"What just happened?"

"She gave a prophecy. Most makes sense but Athena will need to glance at it. Basically a war is coming but we shouldn't freak out until the sky light on fire. Wheater that be. Meteor shower or the northern lights or literally lighting the sky on fire or something."

"What about Shield? They won't stand back. You have the Mist to stay hidden. The Asgardians most assuredly don't. And who will be fighting? The gods or demigods or guardians?"

"We have the Mist to stay hidden. As for the Asgardians. Well, Hecate will probably make us look like more Asgardians. As for who is fighting, they threaten demigods so the guardians will fight. Ares will want in and Zeus is...displeased with Asgard and the hunters will want in because they attacked Thalia.  I'm not completely sure on the rest but I'm trying to keep demigods out of it for once."

He suddenly looked up, something caught in his gaze that made his eyes narrow.

"Whats wrong?"

"Intruders."

A conch horn appeared in his hands and he raised the alarm.

Just as fireworks lit up the sky.

He took off running, Natasha struggling to keep up. The dryad who had taught her to run like a guardian had been pleased so she was able to keep just few feet behind the young god.

They emerged out of the woods on the hillside where an army of campers, Legionnaires, Guardians and hunters, a sea of orange, purple, silver and green.

"TO BATTLE!"  Chiron thundered, aiming his bow.

"FOR THE GUARDIANS!" Clarrisse yelled.

"FOR THE HUNT!" Thalia cried.

"FOR OLYMPUS!" Someone yelled.

"FOR LORD PERSEUS!" Travis bellowed.

"FOR LADY ARTEMIS!" Phoebe yelled.

"ARCHERS!" A young girl in silver said, her auburn hair standing out like a beacon.

Natasha joined the Guardians, knives drawn.

"Glad you could join us, lady Artemis." Percy said, joining the goddess on the front lines, sword in hand, armor materializing on his shoulders. "What's the situation."

"A hundred men, all giving off the same residue that false thunder God did. My father wants them destroyed but sister Athena is curious as to their transportation. She wants some taken alive."

"Lets meet them with a small elite force. My guardians will take the front lines along with your lieutenant and Phoebe. Most of the hunters and my archers will provide support."

"Very well. The rest of the demigods will form a defensive line and reinforcements."

"I want Sofie and Jackie with the hunters. You're on covering fire. Travis, Conner, Clarisse, Sora. Take your squadrons and hit the front lines. The rest of the teams are circling around the left. Natasha. Go with Skye and get up high. I want a birds eye view of the battle. Relay the info to the squad leaders and myself. We're hitting hard and fast, treat them like giants. Stubborn and tough. Strike and dance backwards."

Skye was suddenly next to Natasha and they were airborne rising high above the camp which had been planning a surprise firework show in honor of both the hunters and guardians visiting.

Artemis had given similar orders and Natasha watched as the green, silver and orange sea separated, the guardians running left, hunters to the right. They were fewer in number than the Asgardians now that the campers were being held back to defend the camp.

Most hunters had bows and Natasha noticed that most were young girls, even the goddess.

The guardians were a bit more of a traditional force, older in appearance, Clarisse leading the left flank like Thalia did the right.

The two flanks vanished at a wave of Percy and Artemis's hands, hidden by the mist so well that Natasha's still mostly mortal senses couldn't see them, although Skye assured her they were just hiding in the surrounding woods.

Percy and Artemis strode forward, side by side, Travis on Percy's left and Phoebe on Artemis's left.

Two Asgardians strode forward, smirking at the thought that their opponents were young children.

Indeed, Percy had changed his appearance to match Artemis's apparent age as a pre teen.

The two asgardian ambassadors were both huge brutish looking men, one with a broadsword, the other an ax the size of Artemis.

"Welcome to Earth." Percy said, starting off. "Please leave."

Artemis bit her lip to keep from laughing at the look of pure rage on asgardian 1's face.

"You cur!"

"That's a new one." Percy told Artemis who laughed.

"Look. Our demands are simple." Asgardian 2 said. "Turn over the ones who attacked the crown prince."

"How about you get the Hades off our planet, you alien scum." Percy spat. "You have bo place in interfering. This is the land of true gods. Imposters like you have no place in this world. Leave. Your pathetic prince attacked first. You have no claim or justification."

"For once I agree with Perseus." Artemis said. "Leave or we shall wage war."

"No one does war like the Asgardians. You will be crushed." Asgardian 1 said.  "Surrender now or be destroyed."

"Funny. That's what I was going to say." Percy grinned.

A terrifying war cry went up, reaching Natasha several hundred feet in the air as the Guardians and Hunters charged.

They clashed, surrounding the asgardian army. It was bloody, and Natasha saw many wounded and dead.

The battle went on long enough that campers became involved, Natasha dropping down to fight alongside the hunters.

Her mortal blades, reinforced by magic, sliced easily through armor, beautiful archs of flames, wrapping around her.

At one point Leo was beside her, using his aim and her power to create an raging inferno that send everyone back twenty yards.

Natasha finally understood what Travis had meant by ADHD helping in battle. Leo was acutely aware of not only his surroundings but Natasha's, the pair keeping Asgardians off each other's backs.

Thalia had teamed up with her siblings Skye and Sora and a huge dome of clouds had formed over the battlefield, lightning striking the Asgardians.

A wall of silver and green arrows, raced over Natasha's head, striking the norsemen down.

Eventually they tried to form a shield wall, but Travis and Connor raced forward, so fast they were invisible, Clarisse on their heels.

They leapt over the shield wall, wings on their feet, distracting the Asgardians enough that when Clarisse slammed into them, their wall fell, crumbling to the ground where the archers took them out.

When the haze cleared ten Asgardians were taken prisoner to Olympus, the generals and captains. The rest were sent back to Asgard with a message.

"We are coming."
