Percy quickly flicked his wrists, dozens upon dozens of tentacles made out of pure water suddenly bursting from the abyss and dragging monster down. Percy smirked a little swimming to the bottom, at the very depths of the ocean stood a giant kraken like monster made out of pure water, the monster itself was restraining the King of all sea monsters, the king itself was struggling against the kraken like beast.

"Gah, what is this sorcery." The beast said flailing around trying to rid himself of the tentacles that were wrapped around its body tightly, almost in a strangling way.

Percy didn't speak, he focused on the task at hand, he swiped his fingers through the water, the water kraken suddenly tightening its grip on the monster more, the king seemed to lose all of the oxygen in its lungs. As if by a miracle, the king suddenly escaped from the grip and sigh in relief.

"You're going to pay for this." The monster said suddenly swimming towards Percy in a fast pace. The demigod merely flicked his wrist, the kraken like monster dissapearing, the king suddenly quickened its pace, approaching the demigod in frightening speeds. Percy flicked his wrists, a sudden Megalodon appearing out of nowhere and biting the monster straight in the body.

The Megalodon was made out of pure water, a pair of glowing blue eyes in its face. The demigod flicked his fingers, the shark like beast suddenly doing a number of bites towards the king of all sea monsters. The demigod could faintly see a trail of blood in the wake of the king, it was being pummeled by the water monsters in a seemingly endless barrage. 

Percy swiped his fingers through the air and instantly, the shark suddenly changed back to a giant octopus like monster and wrapped all of its tentacles around the king. Percy snapped his fingers, the beast suddenly enveloping all of its tentacles around the monster, strangling it with such a tight grip that even all of the gods combined would have a hard time with it. 

Percy snapped his fingers, the giant octopus like monster suddenly turning to a small trident and returning back to Percy, circling the demigod in a protective position. The monster suddenly screamed in anger and charged at Percy, opening his mouth for one clear and large bite, the demigod snapped his fingers, Hydrosiphon suddenly growing to the size of an airplane, Percy flicked his wrists, Hydrosiphon following suit making a large slash towards the monster.

The monster widened its eyes, a large slash visibly seen on the monsters chest, in an instant, the monster dissapeared into a puff of blue smoke, a trail of dust in its wake. A orb of blue was the only thing remaining of the sea monster king. The demigod raised his eyebrows, Hydrosiphon shrinking and returning back to a normal size, Percy approached the blue orb with curiosity laced on his eyes, and confusion felt in his demeanor.

The demigod slowly extended his hand and touched the blue orb, in an instant the orb suddenly shattered, a blue essence suddenly seeping out of the orb and onto the demigods body. Percy surpressed a scream, as his body was suddenly filled with power and energy, it felt like being inserted with a syringe, and overflowing your body with a liquid, Percy was feeling like that, his body was about to self combust.

The pain suddenly stopped, the blue orb dissapearing, the essences suddenly went away like poof. The demigod looked around in straight confusion as to what just happened, a small glowing appearing at the back of the demigods hand, Percy checked the back of his hand seeing  his Elemental symbol, the symbol of water, a wave like emblem glowing a faint blue in the ocean.

The demigod shook his head and instantly focused on the next objective, getting out. Percy swam at the top of the surface, this time without any sea monsters in his wake that were trying to kill him. Percy broke the surface of the water, sunlight finally entering the demigods vision, Percy could faintly see land ahead.

The demigod floated out of the water, his energy suddenly restored and better than ever, Percy floated to the island looking around in confusion, it was a beach, surprisingly there were no normal people that were having a nice dip, it was empty. The demigod couldn't dwell on it now, Percy suddenly heard a small beep, the demigod turned to his trident, the small orb like ornament at the middle of the prongs of his trident emmiting a small beeping sound.

The demigod tapped the orb, a small projection suddenly appearing out of nowhere, his friends, the Elementals were suddenly projected like in a sci-fi movie. The demigod raised his eyebrow awaiting for any messages to be relayed, a few years back, Percy learned that the Elementals could communicate with each other via Elemental Weapon, the orb like ornament on their weapons can transmit signals and messages to each other.

Vale was standing at the hologram with a serious face on.

"Delta, meet me at the lighthouse near the beach." Vale said, Percy turned to the lighthouse, seeing a figure up at the very top.

"Will do." Percy said and swiped at the hologram, the demigod floated towards the top of the lighthouse with a confused expression.

"Vale, it's so good to see you, where are the others?" Percy asked raising his eyebrows.

"The others are still out of the radar, as of right now you and I are the only ones that are up and running." Vale stated.

"What happened to you?" Percy asked, Vale's shirt had holes in it, some bruises and grazes visibly seen all over his body.

"While I was blasted out of the island, I landed in some sort of island, I fought some monster that was made out of pure rock, I couldn't seem to land a hit, it's punches were so powerful, it's skin was almost indestructible, luckily I defeated it just in time." Vale said with a sigh of relief.

"That happened to me to, although it's less of a monster rock golem and more of a reptilian sea monster type of ordeal." Percy said.

"Do you think the others are fighting some king of monsters like ours?" Percy asked raising his eyebrows.

"I don't know, but that's most likely true." Vale said with a sigh. Percy instantly remembered what happened before the king of the monsters ordeal.

"Who was that, person, he seemed so powerful, we don't even have a chance against him." Percy said exasperated.

"Even all of our attacks have no use against him." Vale said looking off into the distance, a glazed look on his face.

"I feel that the thing that attacked is the sign that meant the start of the war." Vale said with a hint of dread in his voice.

"Wait, are you implying that-." Percy was cut off, Vale looking directly towards the demigod.

"That thing that attacked us, is the person The Voice was telling us about." Vale said.

"Then we are goddamn screwed." Percy said shaking his head.

"Not all hope is lost though, when you were fighting this beast, was there like an orb when you defeated it?" Vale asked, Percy nodded slowly.

"I got it too, when I touched it I suddenly felt a surge of power, I felt more energized, I felt more powerful." Vale said.

"That's what I felt too." Percy said with a small nod.

"My guess is that by fate, we managed to defeat and take the power of the leaders of each of our respective elements." Vale explained.

"Which means, we now are more powerful than before, though compared to that, thing, we are but insects." Vale said. Deadly silence suddenly filled the space between Percy and Vale, seeming as if lost in thought on the situation, Percy sighed and floated next to Vale, Hydrosiphon in trident form was being held by the demigod, for the first time in months, Percy actually held it and didn't let it float around.

A sudden beam of gray appeared out of nowhere surprising both Elementals, the two yelped and dodged, the beam missing them by mere millimeters. The two Elementals looked around and sure enough, there was a boy around the same age as them, a scepter in hand and a strange presence  around him.

"What the hell are you doing here?" The boy asked raising his eyebrows.

"Elaborate please." Vale said going into a defensive position.

"This is a protected area, Zeus decreed that this part of the beach is to be protected at all costs." The boy said twirling the scepter in his hand, Percy stiffened a little at hearing the name of the Greek god.

"Your friend gets it." The boy said pointing at Percy.

"It's one of those demigods." Vale said.

"Yep, demigod son of Hades at your service." The boy said doing a small now, the boy suddenly looked at Percy with a raised eyebrow.

"Your presence feels, familiar." The boy suddenly said.

"I'm going to need you to come with me for a moment." The boy said approaching the demigod, Vale suddenly extended his arm, shaking his head.

"No can do, we only listen to but one person." Vale said deathly serious, an air of tension suddenly grew between the three.

"Then I just have to take you by force." The boy said suddenly clutching his scepter and making a large cut in the air, beams of gray suddenly blasted from the tip of the scepter traveling at the Elementals fast.

"Why do we always have to be bombarded with all these people." Vale said in annoyance. The boy launched himself back and launched a dozen beams of gray, the beams missed and hit the wall behind them, disintegrating the piece of concrete.

"Better to conserve our power." Percy stated, Vale nodded. Half of the reason why Percy said that was because they really needed to conserve power, whilst the other half was because he really didn't want to face the Greek Pantheon, he really didn't want to end up meeting their gods and demigods, not since, the event.

Vale suddenly jumped off of the lighthouse along with Percy, the demigod slowed his fall and landed on the ground with a thud, Vale being Vale absolutely took it like a champ, it didn't even seemed to have an affect on him, probably because of his trait. The two Elementals ran towards the forest as a very frustrated demigod chased them.

"You're not getting away from me that easily." The boy said, ghost like beings suddenly sprouted from the ground and chased the two Elementals to the forest.

"This is a real pain to deal with." Vale said turning around, seeing as eight if a dozen ghost like spirits chasing them. Vale sighed and planted his fists on the ground, a spike of earth suddenly inpaling a ghost, the Elementals were powerful beings me even punches can affect ghosts, in this case anything the Elementals touch can harm any spirits. The boy suddenly widened his eyes looking at the fallen spirit with wide eyes.

"How can you harm my ghosts?" The boy said flabbergasted.

"No matter." The boy said pointing guns he scepter towards the Elementals. A sudden gray beam of light suddenly erupted from the scepter gaining speed and approaching the Elementals, the two didn't notice and unfortunately got hit by the beam, it didn't disintegrate them though, it only made a small blast of energy. Percy yelped as a sudden explosion took course behind him, Percy landed with a small thud behind a tree.

"I've got you now." The boy said approaching the two Elementals who were currently on the ground unmoving.

"This is such a nuisance." Vale said and coiled his fists and straight up punched the boy in the gut, he yelped and was sent stumbling back a few feet, luckily for him a spirit took the brunt of the blow.

"Bah." The boy said clutching his gut a little, though the attack was nullified, he could still feel the slight effects of the punch.

"You're really messing with my nerves." The boy said clutching his scepter in hand.

"And you're really messing with our time." Vale said, his gauntlets already in hand. Percy remained an observer, staying silent throughout the whole time.

"Spiritual Blast." The boy said striking his scepter in a wide arc, a small grey light suddenly launching from the scepter. Vale struck the ground with his gauntlets, a sudden wall of earth sorrounding the two Elementals like a dome.

"We should end this quick." Vale said deathly serious. The wall of earth suddenly was broken in half by a gray light. As if on cue, spirits suddenly filled the dome and captured the two Elementals in place, three were holding Percy in his place, ten were restraining Vale, because of Percy's inexperience with hand to hand combat, he was easily subdued. Percy yelped dropping the trident on the ground making a clattering noise.

"This is Austin, I've captured the two, I'm now restraining them." The boy suddenly said, talking to his scepter, it was as if it was an earpiece. Vale was suddenly captured by the spirits, holding his hands behind his back, Percy however was already formulating a plan, the Elementals were luring them into a trap, the rest were too focused on Vale, whilst Percy still had free space for his fingers to move, that is the biggest mistake one could make.

The boy, Austin was his name suddenly jumped inside the dome.

"You guys were quite hard to catch I might admit, but still, the result stays the same." Austin said.

"You're going to regret this." Vale said still struggling.

"I'd like to see that happen." He said twirling his scepter.

"Oh it already has." Vale said with a small smile. Percy suddenly snapped his fingers, Hydrosihpon turning active, turning to an army at the count of hundreds upon hundreds of throwing knives, all of them circling around the dome, ready to strike at any given time, the boy suddenly widened his eyes looking around with surprise and shock.

"Move but an inch and you will regret it." Percy said with a look of seriousness crossing his face, the boy didn't get the cue and moved an inch, a knife suddenly zoomed through the air and made a small cut in his cheek as a warning. The rest of the knives pierced the spirits that were holding the two captive. Vale smirked looking at the boy with a raised eyebrow.

"Who sent you?" Vale asked looking at the boy.

"I was sent to guard this place by Zeus." The boy suddenly said.

"You're lying, you have a mission to restrain us." Vale said.

"Fine, I'm a scout." The boy admitted.

"A scout for who?" Vale asked raising his eyebrows.

"No one." The boy said, Vale was starting to get annoyed.

"If you don't start talking my friend here will start to rain knives upon you, now we wouldn't want that would we." Vale said.

"Okay Okay, have you ever heard of a group called Half Bloods?" The boy asked, the two Elementals looked at the boy as if he grew three heads.

"You know the Half Bloods? The most famous group in all of the Greek and Roman pantheons? As famous as the hunters of Artemis?" The boy asked, the two Elementals shook their head.

"Come on man, I'm Austin Caesar, the Spirit of the team." The boy said.

"I was assigned to investigate a sudden spike in power in this part of the beach, I swear I didn't mean any harm." He said with a pleasing look. Percy sighed snapping his fingers, the knives suddenly recombining into a single trident.

"I guess he gets a pass." Percy said with a shrug.

"Don't ever tell the gods or anyone about this." Percy deadpanned, the boy nodded.

"Swear it on the Styx." Percy said.

"I swear on the Styx to never talk about this encounter to anyone unless I'm allowed to." The boy said, lightning suddenly crackled overhead sealing the oath, Percy nodded. The boy suddenly dissapeared in a puff of smoke, leaving nothing behind.

"How do you know that he won't break that promise?" Vale asked raising his eyebrows.

"I don't know." Percy lied with a shrug.

"And what's this swear on the Styx thing?" Vale asked.

"Just something I spouted from my mouth." Percy lied again, this wasn't normally Percy to lie to his friends.

"Now Delta, I'm going to find our friends." Vale stated, his face suddenly turning serious.

"Oh okay, let's go." Percy said floating away only to be dragged by Vale back to the spot where they were.

"What?" Percy said raising his eyebrows.

"You can't come with me." Vale said, his face serious, his eyes were a different story, it was mixed with anxiety and dread, something that Vale doesn't usually feel.

"Why?" Percy asked raising his eyebrows.

"We can't defeat this monster ourselves, we will certainly be doomed on our own." Vale said a small book appearing in his hand, it was the book when the Elementals defeated the rogue Mage a while back on the Tree Kingdom.

"So I need you to do this, I can't do it myself, I'm not ready, I can't." Vale said handing me the book.

"Why do I need a book?" Percy asked feeling uncomfortable.

"Because you need it for the trip I'm sending you off to." Vale said.

"Wait Wait Wait, so you want me to go on this little road trip, whilst you find the other Elementals and combat this threat alone without me?" Percy said gob smacked. Vale nodded.

"Of course not, I will not, you need as much help as you can if we were to defeat this monster, with our combined strengths, now that we are more powered up, maybe we have a chance-" Percy was cut off.

"We can only hope to hold him back, even with your help we can't face this person, that's why I need you to do this, grab this book and head East, the book will guide you through." Vale said.

"Why do I need this book? It seems to have no use whatsoever." Percy said.

"You need it to find her." Vale said, leaving a lot of shade on the subject.

"Who exactly is this her?" Percy asked raising his eyebrows. 

"The Eighth Elemental." Vale said in a deathly serious face on. "The Elemental of Magic."

Chapter eleven is out

Now this is where the fun really stars, the arc where most of the story progresses, also I introduced a new power that Percy had, Sea Monster, I'm going to explain that in the paragraph below this one, after I do all of the normal stuff I do in AN's. Also I introduced this new character Austin Caesar which I must admit I was a little bit skeptical at adding, but I did it anyway even though my mind said not to, I will be expanding his character a little bit, but he will mostly come and go throughout the rest of the book, mostly helping the Elementals out every few chapters at a time.

Now Sea Monster, remember the chapter before this when the octopus and Megalodon suddenly turned to spirit like stuff and was absorbed by Hydrosiphon, Percy is able to manipulate that and turn Hydrosihpon into a giant Octopus made out of water, or a giant shark made out of water, Percy has complete control over the water monster and can use it whenever he pleases, it is the second most powerful move as of right now, just below Hydrobeam, which is getting a power up because of today's events.

Now onto what happened this chapter, I buffed Percy and Vale a little bit, Vale I still haven't explained that much, but he's basically on Titan King Level, Aidan is Titan level before the power up, but after the power up he will be around the middle of Titan King and Primordial, he is more powerful than Kronos, but weaker than the primordials. Percy though has received quite a bit of power, Sea Monster was because of the two creatures he encountered, but right now, he learns how to use his power to the fullest, this new buff is the first step in Percy's unlocking of his new abilities, and Sea Monster is the first one of them.

Also the introduction of a new Elemental, the Elemental of Magic, I have yet to reveal her name and her powers or how she controls it but probably around in three or more chapter I will introduce, the next chapters is either about Vale searching for the Elementals and Percy traveling East to find this new elemental, it will be one hell of a ride I must admit, this story arc will take up five chapters and up, the Elemental of Magic Arc starts at roughly after the Adventure Arc which will be starting next chapter up until five more chapters.

With all that said I wanted to dispel more info but that wouldn't be fun would it?

So I hope you guys do like this chapter and with that said see you tomorrow.
