Chapter Eight: We Reach The City Of Angels

''' Chapter 8 '''

''' We Reach The City Of Angels '''

We drove for one more day on the way to Los Angeles. Our plan was to get in, find Nadir, kill the monsters, and then leaving me to the Underworld. But first, we had to get there. I drove at ninety miles per hour all the way there.

When we got there, I had to find Nadir and the group of half-bloods, they needed our help. I drove through the streets of Los Angeles for about half an hour. I turned the corner, and found him.

I parked the car and we all got out. Nadir and about ten half-bloods were hiding in the alley. Nadir ran up to me.

“Connor! Thank the gods you’re here!” He greeted.

“Oh sure, ignore the other eight of us, we are not important or anything,” said Janny sarcastically.

“Thank you for coming here too guys,” Nadir greeted.

Over here we have Devon, a son of Hypnos. This one here, is Destiny, her mom is Demeter. These are Mckayla and Kylie; they are twin daughters of Dionysus. And the other four are Ragan, Dawkins, Ryan, and Gabe; they are all sons of Ares.” Nadir said.

<p style="text-indent: 0.5in; margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Tahoma', 'sans-serif'; font-size: 20pt">“The monsters are a Chimera and Manticore.” Nadir said.
