The Lust for Power: Chapter 27

Evan's P.O.V.

We landed in the freezing snow to see a bunch of Blue Giants walking toward us. Everyone readied their weapons, but something we saw stopped us cold. (No pun intended)

It was Fuuka. She smiled at us and yelled, "CHARGE!"

At once the Hyperboreans ran forward. Ice and snow barraged us, but KAri made a wall of fire to protect us.

"Kari!" I yelled, "You take Fuuka. Mikmak and I will take the Hyperboreans."

Mikmak immediately transformed the snow on the ground into water. She threw a wave of water at the Giants, and they all fell over. I ran over each one, stabbing them in their stomachs, transforming them into Ice shards. We kept at this for a while, but there were fifty of them. We had only killed about twelve, and we were already exhausted. Suddenly Hyperion jumped out of his chariot behind us and snapped. Flames exploded from his hand, killing a bunch of Giants.

I smiled, and then shockwave out of my sword, destroying two more. "I can do that too," he yelled, and released a shockwave out of his golden sword.

Then a roar echoed in the distance. I saw a gigantic black monster running toward us. In shock, I realized that it was James. He had transformed into a beast, and wasn't a Chimera anymore.

Kari and Fuuka were still fighting, but Kari was gaining the upper hand. She released a wave of flames that sent Fuuka backwards. James was getting incredibly close.

Suddenly little teeth flew towards me. I thrust my sword at them, and sent them backwards with a shockwave. James had gained even more powers.

I ran towards him, and jumped on his back. I stabbed him with my sword, but nothing really happened. "James!" I said, "Why are you doing this?!"

For a second he stopped attacking me, and in James' voice he said, "I'm not trying to! Its poss-". Suddenly his voice changed again, and in the beast's voice it said, "Die child of Athena! Nyx will rise above the Olympians and destroy all!"

I launched a shockwave and sent it flying. Then I set my sword on fire and burned his face. He growled and slashed its claw at me.

I decided that this wasn't James at all. He was something else. And now I have to save him.

(EDIT) (a bunch of fighting and stuff)

Then The Beast breathed a gas on all of us. I coughed, and started to feel drowsy. Then I saw Kari, Mikmak, and even Hyperion collapse.
