"Where they?" Leo asked.
"I'm not sure," Annabeth said,"Maybe someone at Camp Thunder will know."
They all nodded and packed up.
A few minutes of walking later, the four of them arrived at Camp Thunder. Annabeth sighed and rapped on the gates.
The same boy from before-John-opened the gate cautiously.
"Oh," his face lit up,"Hi, Annabeth. Hi, Leo. Where's Percy? And who are these two?"
"I'm Piper, and this is Frank," Piper said,"Who are you?"
"I'm John, nice to meet you."
Annabeth smiled,"Is it okay if we talk to Lucas?"
"Uh, yeah," John said,"Dad shouldn't be too buisy."
"Dad?" Piper asked. John nodded,"You can follow me. He's in a good mood today, so he probably won't kill you."
"Probably?" Leo squeaked.
"Yeah," John shrugged.
They walked in silence until they got to a small home.
The house was made of brick. The door was painted a cheery yellow and the windows were covered in yellow curtains.
John opened the door and walked in, motioning for the four following him to come in.
"Take your shoes off at the door. Mom's very picky about that," John said as he slipped off his white tennis-shoes. The four of them silently slipped off their shoes.
A woman with long brown hair and chocolate brown eyes walked into the room. She smiled,"Hi, John. Who are these young... living... people."
"They're here to talk to dad," John said. The woman nodded,"Well, if you need anything just let me know."
"Come on," John said. He walked up a staircase and the four of who was left from the seven followed.
John stopped in front of a wooden door,"Wait here." They nodded, and stood in the hallway.

Annabeth looked around and noticed that the walls were white. There were pictures of Lucas, the woman they saw downstairs, and John.
They stood there for a few minutes before John stepped out of the room.
"Dad says you can come in," John said. Annabeth nodded,"Thank you." With that the four walked into the room, and John walked down stairs.
The room was a light brown. There were no windows, and a desk was placed in the middle of the room.
"Well, come on in," Lucas snapped. Annabeth, Leo, Piper, and Frank stepped closer to the desk.
"Hello, I'm Annabeth, this Leo, Piper, and Frank," Annabeth said,"We came to see if you have any imformation about the Olympians that are missing. Lucas stepped closer to them,"Annabeth, huh?"
Annabeth nodded.
Lucas laughed,"Yes, I've heard all about you. Fling of Apollo. Cheated on Perseus Jackson. Yes, yes. And Frank, Piper, Leo I've heard about you all as well. Saved Olympus after the second Titan War. Not like your parents-to an extent. Yes, I can help you, but there will be a price."
"What is it?" Annabeth asked.
"When you see Myla, capture her, bring her to me. She's caused a lot of problems for me," Lucas said.
"Who's Myla?" Piper asked. Lucas looked at her,"You know. I believe you've had dreams, have you not?"
"I-I have."
"It's never smart to ignore your dreams. They teach you about your enemy... or your friends," Lucas looked at Annabeth.
"We'll do it," Frank said. Lucas nodded,"Good. She's in Pheonix, Arizona right now. I don't think she'll be leaving anytime soon. The Son of Poeidon and Jupiter put up a good fight."
Annabeth nodded,"Thank you."

"You're welcome. Now, Bianca will be here soon. I thought you might wanna say hi."
"Bianca?" Annabeth asked. Lucas nodded and smirked.
Annabeth's eyebrown furrowed together in thought,"Luke?"
"What?"
"I knew it!"
"Yep. I knew you'd figure it out," Lucas said.
Annabeth nodded and whispered,"Thank you." Luke nodded.
Someone knocked on the door.
"It's open," Luke said. The brown haired girl from earlier walked in,"Honey, Mom's here. She wants to speak to you."
Luke nodded,"Would you mind keeping them company until Bianca get's here?" The woman nodded.
Luke kissed her quickly and walked out of the room.
"So, what are your names?" the woman asked.
"I'm Piper, this is Annabeth, Leo, and Frank," Piper said. The woman nodded,"It's nice to meet you. I'm Livvie. Luke's wife."
"Sorry if it's too nosey, who's your mom?" Leo asked.
"The goddess, Eleos," Livvie said.
"Who?"
"The goddess of mercy, clemency, compassion, and pity."

Transmigration Retiree
"What's that you say? I can never leave this reality ever? Good!" Ed, was a normal man in a world full of superheroes, so he didn't really have too many complaints when that first truck fell on him. After all he'd read enough comics to know that sometimes things just happen. Besides he'd been getting on in years when it happened, and his life till then, though lonely, had more or less been fully lived. The second time around when that one guy pushed him off a cliff for a chalice of immortal ambrosia, wasn't so cool though, and then there was that third time when he was just getting used to life as a lady, and that crazy goddess showed up out of nowhere and started ranting about purging the demon menace....then some other stuff happened and he briefly got to go back to earth before falling into a coma where he adventured in the world of dreams. Then the aliens came, and the dream ended and he was suddenly stuck being the AI Overmind for the whole damn star systm. The aliens died, and because he was all mechanical and what-not he just kind of had to keep on going. Forced to continue collecting the materials and data from countless worlds that were destoryed in the process. Then there was that whole war with the gods business that followed...mostly because of all that world destroying he did because of some fairly faulty programming. Anyway, thankfully someone pulled a "rocks fall" on that whole curfuffle, because by the time he was in control of himself again, things had long gotten out of hand. Now the powers-that-be tell him that he must spend the rest of his existence in single lonely section of the cosmos. Trapped in a single portion of a single universe. And now he weeps...No worries though, these are tears of joy. Hopefully this final unending existence he's been given will be the quiet life he's been looking for. A Man who's seen everything gets abducted by aliens and is converted into an AI that sits at the helm of a fleet of alien ships and behind the computer systems for most their planets. This Alien AI goes to war with the gods and ends up nearly destroying an entire reality. The Angels condemn the troublemaking AI to life as normal child on a far off world....All truth said, the "AI" couldn't be happier. His life's been far too interesting(read: Scary, Inconvenient and Painful) in his opinion and he could do with a bit of normalcy.

Crimson Gloom
Crimson Gloom. The time when the moon turns crimson, illuminating the landscape with its crimson glow. The time when the ‘doors’ to the Crimson Abyss open. One shall gaze into the abyss and gain its secrets and powers. Concurrently, the abyss also gazes into oneself, gaining one’s sanity and humanity. Dimensional rifts appeared spontaneously on Earth, bringing otherworldly demons along with the Crimson Gloom. Bloody battles were fought, noble sacrifices were made. Humans eventually sealed the rifts and successfully defended their homeworld. Alas, the seals were not perfect. The Crimson Abyss continued to exist, slowly influencing Earth and its inhabitants. Half a century of relatively uneventful years passed… humanity slowly descended into corruption, and the majority of them knew nothing of the effects of the Crimson Abyss. Is there only the dreadful gloom left to the world? Can one find brightness in the increasingly gloomy world? The youth who had gazed into the Crimson Abyss had no answer, nor did he care. He only wanted the Crimson Gloom to end, to forever seal the Crimson Abyss. A mistake and a twist of fate led the youth into a seemingly totally different direction. Will he forget his lifelong goal? Will he instead step back onto his initial path that he fervently pursued? Disclaimer: I do not own the image on the cover. Image edited on canva.com. This piece of work, after all, is only a first draft and by no means an end product by an amateur (beginner) writer. Mistakes are bound to happen. With that said, I will strive to improve as I write. Feel free to point out errors and inconsistencies as you read. I thank you for your time. Finally, I pledge to not rewrite this novel until the first draft is completed.
