Chapter 10- I'm Outmatched

3rd Person POV

Upon the cloaked figures words monsters surge forward. Campers hurry into formation and begin to fight. The immortal campers/minor gods fight up front. The Apollo campers and Hunters cause arrows to rain down the battle field. Healer and Beauty help lead younger campers away from harm. Omega draws his pitch black sword Chaos gave him and head in the fight. He works his way through the monsters heading for the Primidorials and the cloaked figure. The rest of the Elite shoulders fight here and there helping out the Campers with weak points. The fight carries on and in about a half hour and many campers have died. The battle changes though as the cloaked figure smiles.

The cloaked figure walks slowly down toward Omega humming happily as he does. Monsters quickly move out of his path. Those who don't... With a simple flick of the wrist they crumble to golden dust.

"You realize your killing your own army right!?" Omega yells as he slays a telekine and moves on to a hellhound.

"These?" The figure asks motioning to his ranks. "Nothing more than pawns. I have stronger beings for the final battle."

"I thought this was the final battle? We simply wait for the gods to arrive?" Gaea interjects stalking over. "What of the plan? You told me it yourself!"

"You know nothing of My Lords plans," He snaps. "You are stupid." Gaea opens her mouth to protest but is cut off. "ENOUGH!" He yells. At his command monsters begin to stop fighting and fall back toward him. He surveys the damage done. He nods once and smiles. Campers are confused but use the time to move the injured. And do to excellent timing this is when the Gods choose to appear.

"Now we must get rid of the useless Olympians," Tartarus sneers.

"No," The figure says sternly. He doesn't yell but his voice carries troughout. "Like I said before you nothing of My Lord's plans. He only gave me a few instructions. Now I shall carry out the first." Tartarus opens his mouth to question but stops as a black sword hits him in the face. He falls back as it impaler him. Dissolving into nothing. All eyes turn back to the figure who stands watching. He summons the black sword back to his hand and wipes the ichor into his sword onto his cloak.

"You killed him!" Gaea roars.

"Yup. That was my first order. As for my second..." He trails off and raises his hand and a spike of earth appears and impales the Primordial of the Earth. Instead of doing no harm as one would expect, the spike goes trough her back and out her front. Golden ichor spurts from the wound. "You are an annoying goddess. If not for that My Lord would have allowedyou to live atleast to the final battle. But now look at at you. Dying of your own domain," He says circling her, amusement clear in his voice. He watches as Gaea dissolves into the ground and smiles.

The gods and campers stare at the figure, shock and fear etched on their faces. Who could have done that to a Primordial? The Elite stare shocked yes but not fearful.

"Apprentice... Of End," Omega sneers his grip on his sword tightening.

"Someone here has a brain!" The figure shouts happily. "My opposite is smarter than he looks. A pleasure to meet you in person Omega. I am Destroyer."

Omega POV

Destroyer snaps once and the monsters surge forward once again. He comes closer and I immediately charge and swing my sword in a deadly arch. He counters and blocks the strike before attacking with one of his own. He swings across and I hop back and side step hoping to hit him in the side. As I fight I glance at his armor and see it is almost identical to mine. I know where his weak points are but, he knows mine. So I try and distract him.

"Is Destroyer really your name?" I ask attempting to disarm him.

"Omega any better?" He blocks my strike and tries to kick me. I side step and blast Chaos Energy at him. He counters with his own.

"Touché. But why do you wear a cloak? Based on the fact you just killed two Primordials I think you would show your face." I kick him in the chest he slides back a foot but just seems annoyed rather than hurt.

"If you are trying to distract me it won't work," He says slashing at my neck. I block it and he continues. "I will show you my face but only when you are dying. Only then may you see." He disappears and tries to appear behind me. Instead of whirling around I duplicate myself and it blocks and I try to surround him. He copies himself and the two copies begin to fight. We both seem to realize that is pointless and the copies disappear. I guess no powers then. We continue to fight and I shove him back a bit and he speaks again.

"I must say until now I have not had a partner other My Lord himself worth fighting."

"Agreed. Though I must say this is pointless. I'm the second most powerful in the universe," As I speak we begin to circle examining eachother.

"I'm sure he told you that," He laughs. "I will give you one more chance. Join us. You are worthy."

"No you join us. I would never fight for the enemy."

"Then why are you on that side?" He asks innocently. I ignore him and slash again and we keep going. I end up glancing at everyone else. The monsters are almost gone but they are focusing on my team who are making their way toward me. I put my full attention back on Destroyer. As I dodge he misses me by a millimeter. And I realize something.

I'm...

Outmatched.

Annabeth POV

I stab the empousa and glance up to Destroyer and Omega. The two are blur of red and black. I look back to my fight when I hear a shout.

"You bastard!" All heads turn to see Destroyer smirking with a piece of cloth in his hands.

"Your the weak demigod. Pretty sure your the bastard, by definition," He says spinning the cloth. I turn to see Omega. His hood is gone. I stare at his face.

Oh my gods...
