The Avengers of the Earth Book 1: Chapter 2

Andy P. O. V

It was a normal school day. Andy had gone for PE, his best subject. But his teacher was this mad old guy from 9000 BC. "Now......................." he started, "zzzzzzzz." Sleeping, as usual. Darn. Then the principal came down. "All of you go outside. Play ball." They responded willingly. But 12 year old Andrew Maxwell King didn't get to play ball. Nope, he was attacked by demons. "Whoa! Help!" he called out. His two friends, Lenny and Tony came to his aid. "Take this!" said Lenny, who threw a sword. Instinctively, he swung at the demon. "Harpies! Look out Tony!" exclaimed Lenny. "Yes! Harpies! Servants of the pit! He will arise again! Defeat gods! Defeat Titans!" said a harpy. Tony killed four demons. Then he was surrounded. "Help me!" he said. Andy went and stabbed all of them. "Thanks. IOU an IOU." joked Tony. "What were those things? Harpies? As in the sisters of Iris?" asked Andy. "Yep. And you're a half-blood. And you've just been claimed." answered Tony. "By who?" he questioned. "Kratos, god of strength. See that club? Exactly. You think I taught you mythology for no reason?" said Lenny. "No. Now what?" he asked. "To Camp-Half Blood. Tony, go steal us a car." said Lenny.

"No, to the left.' argued Annabeth. "If we go here, they'll go here, and we can attack from here." reasoned Malcolm. "Ok." she said. "I'm going now." and then she left.

"Hi, Chiron. Hi, Percy." said Annabeth as she entered the Big House. "How are things going?" she asked. "Not good at all." said Chiron gravely. "Some harpies attacked the new kid. They said they were servants of the Pit." said Percy. "What pit? Tartarus?" she asked. "I fear so." said a new voice. They turned around. It was Iris, goddess of rainbows. "Yes, this is very bad. My lady and my lord have deduced that Tartarus is rising for revenge. He will attempt to defeat us, the gods. Then the Titans. As the messenger of the gods, I learned this from another who was attacked by harpies." she told them. "I have never heard something like this." said Chiron. "We must prepare." he concluded.
