Hi there folks, I am sorry for not updating I don't have a legitimate reason except that, each time I have a problem with my betas. So I am sorry! I will edit and update my own chapters without any ones help for now or if theirs is someone out there who could lend a hand that would be deeply appreciated

Enjoy!

CH11: A Monster district

PREVIOUSLY:

"The infiltration is complete. We are waiting for response." The man said in a calm tone, but if you could see his eyes he could see fear and pain in them. The two being looked at each other then at the man standing in front of them.

"Do not disappoint us" they said together and the man disappeared giving a slight bow. "I do not trust him, brother" one man said with purple hair.

"Neither do I" the other replied and disappeared.

NOW:

The silhouette of the ghost turned its head in a 180 degree fashion, then wisps of smoke started coming out of it mouth "Who dares enter my cave, I shall smite thee." That was really awkward. I cleared my throat.

"The creator of the universe has asked me, I gave a dramatic pause "to retrieve the armor." If a ghost could think, it was doing it right now. The ghost crumbled something on the lines of 'Chaos'…. 'Old fool'…

"Tell me, boy" the ghost said in a menacing voice, "Do you wish to have more power?"

I blinked a couple of times at the vague question asked by the ghost.

"No" I said. "The only reason I am doing this, is because chaos asked me to." The ghost's onyx hollow eyes bored into mine - I felt a cold shiver run across my back a felling of dread crossed over me. I felt vulnerable; my legs felt weak and would give away any moment.

The ghost averted its eyes from me. "Boy, find something that anchors you to the world. Then come back here and you will have your armor, until then…" I doubt that would happen any time in the future.

The world around me went black; I was forcefully dragged away from the pit passing through the different layers of earth like, dipping your hand in flour mixed with little water. I came all the way to this hell hole only to be thrown back without anything.

Flash back end

Someone tapped my shoulder bringing me out of my dream world, but training extensively had made me a bit restless. I took the person hand and flipped him over my head and snaking my legs around his neck in a choke hold.

They were audible gasps coming from many people, and then I realized what I had done and quickly stood up. The person under me was a son of Ares, a new recruit.

"Sorry about that, you kind of startled me." I said, he just grunted and stood back up and went back in line. The number of people had increased and the ceremony for new recruits would be starting any time soon.

I would not have mentioned it before, but the primordials bless each demigod they deem worthy making them their champions. I usually give them a set of tasks or missions to see whether they are worthy enough to get blessed.

After they are blessed, they are taken into their group and trained in a particular field they excel in. Like the person I sent to find out about Jason, he is actually my lieutenant and takes care of everybody who are champions of Nyx, since I am busy.

Luke is blessed by Aether and had declined the offer from Chronus to control time also he prefers fighting at dawn than at night. Who wouldn't want to fight at night, I have x-ray vision and could even become one with the shadows. But he thinks I have turned into a freak.

"Everyone positions, I need 100 pushups, 100 squats and 100 straight punches. Any one slacking off will be running until they drop dead." They were multiple groans coming from everyone has they started. Haa….the pros of being a demigod

I felt someone trying to communicate with me telepathically which I allowed without any resistance.

"Percy," said a voice that I hated the most than the Olympians.

"What is it, Eros?" I grunted controlling my temper, as he tends to annoy me. "I need you to ask Mrs. Piper Maclean to become my champion and become the head of my group." I don't know what Eros was planning, but I had a bad felling about it. I taught about the warning Chaos had given me. What was the old goat talking about, this was really troublesome!

Why did he need piper all of a sudden? This business with the primordials was frustrating me. "Fine, I will speak to her about it and will not force her, it is her decision after all."

"Very well," Eros conceded has he cut the link…

The remaining of the day went smoothly as planned. I felt relieved that I was not having any of the missions to worry about- after all Luke does handle most of the things that comes up. Truthfully I dump the load on him.

I dismissed the class and walked towards the elevator, and pressed the button 'G5', which takes me to the dudgeons, it isn't exactly a dungeon- their regular room having steel gates. They have some very deadly and lethal monsters for training and interrogations.

A dash board appeared in front of me, I pressed in some verification pass code etc. This level is eligible to only certain people and not everyone. They were some demigods who were foolish enough to die just for pulling some stunts.

I heard that someone had just captured a monster that had some Intel on the enemy, also I had to interrogate the chimera for information on why such a horde of monsters were actually trying to kill piper, was she an enemy? Was it planned? Or was it because of the new threat that was arising?

The warning Chaos had given me, what was her intentions. This was really starting to frustrate me. I slammed my head on the door to get my thoughts straight. The elevator door opened with a chime. I took a couple of seconds to look at the column and rows of prison.

I walked to last one; their sleeping soundly, curled up in the corner was the chimera. I walked in such a way that the monsters in the prison dint even notice me unless they saw me or smelled.

I had hidden my presence very well; it would take a god to figure out my presence. Even Artemis would find it difficult except for Hades has he has some command over shadows.

I pressed the button of the cell where the chimera was sleeping and it opened without a sound. The chimera's eye opened slowly taking in its surround before it jumped up in fear looking at me.

"I think you know why I have come. So speak your mind" the chimera looked uncertain, at first then gave in after I took out my knife to clean the mud which was on the sole of my boots. Trying to intimidate it, the way Luke had done to me on the first day of camp.

"What would you like to know?" it said agitated and taking a step back.

"Why are the monsters resurfacing, is someone going against the gods. Or is it just to kill her" I asked with a menacing tone.

"Please Lord, I do not know but word in the monster district-there is something old and dark re-surfacing. Its gathering all monsters, they say the old has risen…"

It stopped for a minute as I made a chair out of mud and motioned it to continue, "As I was saying, something old is rising. The power is shifting slowly. The duos of ultimatum are back. Armies are gathering everywhere being lead by someone who where's a grayish coat."

"What is this place you call has-'Monster district'?" I questioned. Weird name! And to think people taught that I make funny names.

"It's a place similar to Tartarus run by monster; it's in different places all around the world like how the Amazons run…"

"Do the gods know about it?" I interrupted

"No…it is only known to monsters, humans…"

Then it became silent contemplating weather to continue, "Speak" I said. "I will not harm you"

"And some demigods"

"What" I boomed everything shook around me the shadows seemed agitated the temperature in the room dropped.

"It's the truth Lord" it whispered bowing down.

I turned around my coat flapping as I walked out, my body enveloped in darkness. I had come to the main place or to the command center. Luke was busy talking to some of his members and I saw he needed to take some rest.

"Luke!" I barked, everyone around him froze and gave a slight nod or bow.

"I don't get any rest is it Perce." He said tiredly, as bangs were visibly shown on his face.

"This is big Luke. I don't know where to begin call in all the generals of every prime. This is too much to comprehend." He eyes widened to a total disproportion.

We never had a gathering of champions, if I said something like this it must have really shaken him up to the very core.

"Snap out of it and get to it Luke" I ordered he gave a two finger salute and disappeared.

A/N: The italics were something new; I am trying a different style. Anyway, guess I will be updating this one frequently than my other stories.Please do not forget to review or pm ideas. Anything about the monster district, do you want some gore scenes or not?
