A Hero Was Born: Chapter Seventeen

The door remained unopened. No matter how much he tried and tried, Phillip could not open the door. And the battle as only six feet away. Wake had a feeling he was going to need to fight, but after his last battle, he was not looking forward to another fight. But Phillip didn't seem to mind. After all, the only thing on his mind was getting Wake and ecpecially Malisa to safety. He got out a shield.

"Wake," he said, "hold this." He charged to the battlefield. Wake himself saw Phillip charge at the enemy. If he dies, Wake thought ''it won't be my fault, right? ''He did not look at the battle, but had an eerie feeling that unless Wake did not intervene, Phillip was gonna die.

Ancient computers flashed ad beep. Employees were running about everywhere. The room was chaos. An employee grabbed a mike and shouted,

"The Tunnle system has been invaded! All guards to their positions!" There was no way the guards were gonna let anyone, not even a god, disrupt the usually peaceful passangers who walked the corridors of the Tunnel. But right now all the tunnel had was blood. On the ground and the walls, blood. Ares himself was not discouraged. He had been used to seeing the substance millions of times during his many fights. But the only thing that kept Wake from barfing was the color of the blood. It was golden. And he also unfortunately looked like the drink the director ofered him at Camp Demi-god. And somewhere in the middle, Phillip was holding off five soldiers, using his sword to kill one of them. He slashed his ay to the other side, but something caught him. It was Ares.

"My my, what do we have here? A mortal. And he plans to abandon his post, does he not?" Phillip felt outrage.

"This is not my fight!", he yelled as he slashed his sword wildly, trying to break free. Ares merely grunted. He then threw Phillip into the ground, sword still in hand. But Ares did not finish. Instead, he sent his soldier to kill him. They performed their task with unfortunate results. Wake would never hear from his friends again. For at that moment, something grabbed him from behind. And he disappeared into the door labeled MOUNT OLYMPUS.
