He could finally save Calypso, and everyone was kept hostage. Finally, the moment he was waiting for, was about to arrive. Leo, Annabeth, and Hazel could finally murder the kidnapper and live in peace. They had done this before. What could go wrong? Leo didn't know that the answer was likely to be, everything...

The place looked like an eerie alley, where no one would notice anything suspicious.*Wink wink* Hazel wondered how Piper could even live here. She called it peaceful, but it looked like someone had executed half the population to keep it peaceful. Hazel was never going here with Frank for their honeymoon. That was for sure. Hundred percent.

The kidnapper was behind the doors. But none of the hostages could be heard. So breaking down the doors would be a hasty move. So Leo tried to find another way in. There was no other way in. Hazel, Annabeth, and Leo kicked the doors. They creaked and opened.

Leo turned around the room to see where the kidnapper was hidden. He felt a knife blade on his throat the next second. No, no, no. "Don't move, or you're dead."

Leo knew what to do next. He surrendered and watched the kidnapper walk around the trio. Annabeth and Hazel were gagged, coughing out blood.

"You were the one who sent the fire-breathing Minotaur after us."

"YOU were the one who wanted Percy dead."

"No, stop. I only sent the Minotaur after you to kill someone who is not Percy. But the Minotaur killed him instead."
