Percy Jackson and the Creator: The Creator's Trick

Percy cut and hacked his was through demigod after demigod trying to get to Luke. Every time he had an opening anther demigod stepped in his way. Percy’s army was fighting well. In all only seven had been killed and they had been fighting on this side of the hill for close to 20 minutes. The bodies of demigods kept piling up. Jason and Jazz were fighting back to back. The others were hacking demigods down tainting their white swords red. Percy had blood splattered across his face. Finally he reached Luke. They were standing 6 feet apart. “Percy I’m going to enjoy this. I’ve been give permission to kill you this time.” Percy pulled a knife out of his boot and looked at Luke, “Bring it scar face.” Luke sneered and jumped towards Percy. Percy rolled forwards coming up behind Luke. He slashed backwards he cut Luke across the back. Luke spun and brought his sword down towards Percy’s head. Percy dived to the right. He kicked Luke in the side and elbowed him in the nose. Blood flowed out of his nose. Luke wiped it away and snarled at Percy and came forward again. Luke slashed one way and Percy raised his sword to block but Luke brought his sword into a stab at the last second and his sword plunged into Percy’s leg. Percy cried out and pushed himself back. Luke slashed his sword across Percy’s chest cutting it. Percy dropped onto his good leg. Luke slashed his sword again cutting Percy across the face and throwing him onto his back. Percy was defenseless. None of his army could come to his aid because they were all fighting their own battles. Luke pointed his sword at Percy. “I’ve waited for this moment since I first met you. You’ve always been an upstart, and now you’re going to die like one.” Luke raised his sword and brought it down towards Percy’s face. At the last second Jason came out of nowhere and blocked Luke’s sword. He kicked Luke’s feet out from under him. Percy came up on one knee and drove his sword into Luke’s chest. Percy could feel the warm wetness of Luke’s blood. He pulled his sword out and Luke fell onto his knees. Percy stood up favoring his good leg and looked at Luke. “I didn’t want this Luke. I didn’t want any of this. I’m sorry.” With one clean strike Percy took Luke’s head off. Percy cried out in frustration. He looked around and noticed that the demigods had started to surrender. Out of all that there were there were what seemed to be 100 left. Some were running down the road and others were laying their weapons down. Percy wiped the blood off his sword and knife and sheathed them. Jason came to him, “You did what you had to do.” Percy nodded and looked at the bodies. This was too much for just teenagers. “Wait where are the campers?” Jason asked. Percy looked around. They hadn’t joined the fight. Percy had a bad feeling. “Over the hill!” He yelled. Percy ran to the top of the hill. Some of his army followed. Percy looked down into Camp Half-Blood. He saw stone statues everywhere. They were frozen in terror. One stuck out more than the others. Hazel. She had been frozen with a look of surprise. Medusa was here. Percy tore off down the hill. The statues were trailing towards the cabins. Percy ran to them. Jason was beside him. When they neared the barricade they saw Medusa. She had hopped the barricade and was trying to break into the Athena cabin. Some hunters had tried to stop her and failed. Percy took his knife out and threw it at her head. It stuck in the back of her head and she turned and screamed in annoyance. Percy covered his eyes and jumped on her tail and ran up her back. He jumped and grabbed one of her snake strand of hair and spun and sliced her head off. She crumbled into dust. Percy landed on his feet and kicked the dust away. The door to the Athena cabin opened and Zoe came out. A few more campers came out. Zoe ran into Percy’s arms. “Zoe what happened?” Zoe was shivering. “Medusa came out of the wood and attacked us. She was crushing some with her tail and turning others to stone. We never stood a chance. She got Hazel and I ordered the retreat to here.” Percy squeezed her, “It’s ok now. She’s gone.” A dark flashed appeared next to Percy. It was Chaos. He had his own armor on. “Percy get Jason. Tartarus has marched on Olympus.” Percy let go of Zoe and stepped to him. Jason ran over. “Let’s go.” Percy said. “Wait! I’m coming too!” Zoe said. Percy locked eyes with her. She was determined. Percy nodded his head and Chaos flashed them away.
