(DAMMIT! I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT ABOUT KRISSIE! LOL I am so stupid.)
One...two...three...four. Krissie leaned against a tree, grinning cheerfully, counting the number of demigods falling to the ground, either dead or fatally injured. The battle was running along nicely. After the demigods are defeated, the gods wouldn't have their precious children to look after them, would they? The downfall of Olympus would go cleanly and smoothly. So what if they lost a few?
Krissie heard someone sneak up behind her, and then whirled around, blocking her attacker with her sword just as they attacked. It was some son of Mars, 12 years old, seeming to have barely any training, and he looked mighty angry if Krissie did say so herself. "Now is that anyway for a proud child of the war god to fight?" Krissie cooed, letting out a strange, high-pitched giggle. The daughter of Poseidon seemed to have gotten a lot more...crazy...since the last time she fought anyone from the camps. "Sneaking up behind an enemy, no matter if he or she is a traitor, isn't very brave. I'd think you'd fight me face to face."
"Shut up-"
"Too bad you won't get a chance." Having distracted the kid by talking, a wave of water rose behind the boy. As he whirled around, sensing the prescence behind him, it was already too late. Icy cold water surged downwards and the poor boy drowned.
Krissie casually stepped into the midst of the battlefield, yawning. "My my...that wasn't much fun at all. I wonder who could actually put up a fight...?"
(Again, feel so stupid for forgetting Krissie...now someone attack her. And my other charries.)

Jacob look up at Keith slowly. Was he really risking his life to help him? It couldn't be... But, regardless, he took his arm anyway. As he got up, he shifted his weight to his other foot. He grabbed Kieth's shoulder for support. As he looked to his brother, he saw two people swirling. He was dizzy. He was a completeley useless idiot. He groaned and limped on his leg. He barley realised the inormity of getting Keith to help him. He was a Gaian. "You're going to Elysium for this," he said. "You've chosen the right side." He didn't even know if he was switching sides. This was a graceful act that he had no idea how to repay.

Summer stared at Cy-no, now Ace in astonishment. "It's you. You've never really died, but was just hidden inside of him?" It was amazing how things turned out. Summer narrowed her eyes at Terra, "You want me to deal with her?" she asked, gesturing towards the daughter of Demeter.
As soon as the globe shattered, the pieces melted back into water again, flying back to Caroline, restoring a part of her energy. Immediately, Caroline dashed forward and lashed out at Cole, hoping to stop him from attacking with his thorns again.

Ace looked at Terra, sadness touching his eyes. "No...they really, really like each other. I kind of understand..." He released Terra slowly, cautiously.
Terra felt a tear slide down her cheek from his words. Cy liked her. Where was he now? Why had Cy lost the internal fight? He had been fine before they came here... "What's going on...what did you do...what did you do to Cy...Cy..." Terra felt like crying. "Give him back!" She stood up, fury blowing out in her scream. She gripped onto his arm. "Give him back!" She couldn't hurt this boy, or she would hurt Cy as well.
Ace frowned, tilting his head slightly to the side. "He'll kill more people if I let him have control. I'm afraid I'm never going to let him out."

I spun, taking note of the amount of bodies falling, the many deaths hapening every second. I saw someone to fight, but stopped short when I saw the stormy gray eyes, not unlike my own. As much as I wanted to win, I couldn't bear to kill my own siblings, ones I had known and, possibly at one point, had trusted with my life. I just couldn't do that. Come to think of it, I just couldn't bear the thought of killing anyone anymore. I jut didn't know what to do. (Should I kill Rachel? I'm not sure if I should or not.... cuz I like her, but at the same time I don't.)

(I don't think so either. Ah...here goes one Athena kid...) Tyler Strong, son of Apollo- This wasn't right. It was too noisy. Too chaotic. He had to make them go away. Peace for the earth. Death for them. He shot, one by one. The campers fell victim tonhis never missing arrows. He spotted Keith hacking his way through demigods. He knew the kid quite well, being training partners, and was immensely shocked when the boy helped another. He wasn't the type to do that. He saw that he was helping his half brother...but...wasn't that boy a camper? Keith had betrayed them. Unforgivingly, Tyler drew his bow. He aimed it straight at the son son of Athena's back, then hesitated. He turned it on Jacob instead, and shot. Keith- "I don't think the gods are that forgiving..." He helped Jacob stand, making sure he had a tight grip on his brother to keep him from falling. He edged him into the care of the infirmary. An Apollo kid rushed out to help them. He moved to stand in front of Jacob to help the Apollo kid. Suddenly, a pain exploded in his back, and he let out a gasp. Arrow..? He turned around, spotting Tyler in a tree. He let out a cough of pain, tasting blood. He stumbled. I thought...we were friends... The ground rushed up at him, and his vision went dark as he collapsed to the ground. Cole- He stumbled back as she regained the water. The thorns lashed out dangerously at her face as he stepped back to avoid her. He wasn't so stupid to give up his protection.

Colton struggled to sit up at least. It was dangerous out here in the middle of the battle. He watched Terra and the son of Gaea's display with utmost curiosity. He didn't see his attacked until the last moment. An enemy demigod rushed the wounded boy, and he rolled out of the way. It only caused his broken ribs to enflame more and his lungs heaved painfully. He managed to shoot a dagger of shadows straight at the back of the kid, making him fall to the ground. He groaned, in even more pain now from using energy and moving around.

Ace's bright green eyes were the color of fresh spring grass, jubilant and a happy color. But they saddened to a deeper but still brilliant emerald green at Terra's words. "I'm really sorry....I can't let him out...he'll kill too many. You understand that right? You're a kind person, and you didn't want to kill anyone, but you did it just to follow after him, right?" Ace bent down next to her, and wiped away one of her tears. "Please don't cry..." He was as gentle and kind as ever. And in the time he had spent sleeping inside of Cy, occasionally trying to break out, he had grown more humble and understanding of others as well. He gently made her release his grip on her sleeve. "I'll let him out when he regains his memory. Gaea stole his soul from Hades. He deserves to remember his previous life, correct? Then we'll see what he wants to do afterwards."
Ace stood up, a look of pity crossing his eyes at Terra. This must have really frightened her. He looked back and saw Colton having trouble. Wait a second...wasn't that the kid Cy had attacked earlier? He was in dire condition, and Ace could feel it. He rushed over shouting back at Summer. "Watch Terra for me!" He arrived next to Colton, cursing at the kid's condition. Two broken ribs. And they were puncturing his lungs. "Hold still. Let me help you." Last time he had done this, he had thought he had ended up dying. He should have. But Gaea had revived him. Before he could take control of his body, though, she had forced someone else in it to take his place. And Ace had been inside that cage in the back of Cy's mind. Now he had a power coursing through him like never before. Healing would be a cinch. The tattoo on his arm flared a painfully bright green. He placed a hand on Colton's ribs, glowing with green energy. He prepared to heal the son of Thanatos.

(I don't get that explanation, unfortunately. I am utterly confused, so I'm going to let Colton be Colton. ) Colton every breath was excruciatingly painful. His shocking blue eyes had lost their piercing quality, and were dull from weakness. He could never seem to get enough air, and his lungs felt like they were being stabbed whenever he tried to take a deeper breath. With his fuzzy vision, he could barely make out the outline of Cy. Hold still. Let me help you. Wait wait wait...What?! Help him? Had he gone mad? Fear stabbed through him as he placed his hand on his broken ribs. What was he planning to do? Was he going to die here? His fuzzy brain was keeping him from functioning properly, and seeing the differences in the color of his eyes. Colton's hand shot up and gripped Ace's wrist without knowing it was Ace. "D..Don't..Don't touch me... His voice was filled with distrust, and it was shaking from the effort of breathing. Even if it would kill him, though, he wasn't going to ever let Cy touch him again. The boy had caused him too much pain for no reason.

Steven looked over to Colton. He saw the boy who had attacked him...trying to help him? Or was he trying to cause more harm. Most of the monsters around Andrew and him were gone, so he ran to Colton's aid. "Don't touch him!" He screamed. He continued to run, finally dropping to his knees beside his friend. Steven glanced at the boy for a second and noticed something strange. His eyes were green instead of blue. Still, he didn't trust him.

"No, you don't get it...I'm trying to hel-" Ace couldn't help but flinch at Colton's hard grip. He was strong to be able to have such a tight grip in his condition. The green glow in his hands faded slowly. He looked up at Steven in puzzlement. He touched Cy's memory, and it bit back sharply. He winced, getting a stabbing headache. But it was alright, he at least knew who this kid was. "Steven...I'm trying to help...please..." Cy had a resource of all the demigods in camp. Their full names, and their parents. He had gotten the information all from the spies. And Gaea. She was the earth herself, who but her could listen t every conversation in the world? So he had picked out Steven's name. And it kind of surprised Ace. The information on Colton said he was cold and stinging to all of the campers. He had no friends. Yet this kid was protecting him.

"Wait! Steven! Don't go near him!" Andrew blocked another monster with a growl of frustration. He finished off the last few, but got clumsy, letting one slash his shoulder. Oops.
Colton tensed as a flash of pain went across his shoulder. Andrew had gotten hurt, the fool. And here came the ghost, running and yelling "Sorry, master! Are you alright? Oh my.." As an Apollo kid, he could tell as well. Colton had to broken ribs. His head was dizzy, and he could barely comprehend what was going on. He just kept a tight grip on Ace. Who was he now? Was he really tryingto help? "Don't...touch me..."
Andrew looked at Colton worriedly. The son of Thanatos managed one of his cold smiles at both him and Steven. "You shouldn't be worrying about me. It's too dangerous here. What are you doing out of the infirmary?"

"You don't understand!" Ace's voice took a note of desperation. "We can't carry you to the infirmary, it will cause you too much pain. I can help! I can heal you! Please let me! I want to help." He looked at Colton, blinking his green eyes. "Its hard to explain, but I dint mean harm. I'm not Cy!"

Steven looked at Ace and nodded. "I believe you." He didn't know where that came from. He just said it.

(It's Emily! I'm at Rebecca's house, so yeah.)
Summer~ Summer stared at Ace like he was crazy, but reluctantly lowered her knife. She stood there awkwardly next to Terra, not sure what to say to her. "Don't worry... Cy'll be back soon, and he won't be so evil..." Hopefully.
Caroline~ Caroline swatted away the thorns again, not sure what to do now. She could try hand to hand, but the thorns would be a problem. And if she tried to throw her sword, she would be unarmed for some time. Caroline decided to go on defensive at least until Cole got tired out.

Colton narrowed his eyes, barely able to comprehend his words. At the last sentence, he was seriously shocked. He took a deeper breath, and he pulsed in pain. At least he had gotten his vision to clear somewhat. "You're not...Ace?" He had heard that the son of Gaea had died. Cy had claimed that their internal battle had ended up with the eviler of the pair dominating, leaving the boy before him trapped. Slowly, he released his grip on Ace's wrist, noticing for the first time, his green eyes. He looked at Steven. So even he had been convinced. "You are..." His weakened voice was disbelieving.

Cole- He was seriously going crazy. He wasn't one to attack girls, but he had never felt so angry before. He couldn't control his temper. More than nice, he paused to calm himself down, but something spurred him on. Something nagged at the back of his mind about his brother. Something kept reminding him that he was dead, and that this girl was the cause. That something was provoking him, keeping his fury burning strong...and he kind of appreciated it. Every time he looked at Caroline in the eyes, he saw pity. It made him downright furious. Why was she pitying him?! He didn't need it! He wanted to kill her...
Terra~ She fell to her knees, trying to hold back tears. The daughter of Ceres managed to stem (pun intended) the flow of tears. She looked up at Summer, her eyes almost afraid. "He said he wouldn't let him come back...You don't understand...I want him to stay forever. And since he is in control, even if he comes back, he can't stay forever...And he won't be Cy anymore...I don't want that to happen." Terra felt like she was going to have a panic attack.

Caroline~ Seeing as Cole didn't attack yet, Caroline sprang forward and aimed a blow at his head, knowing that he could easily dodge, but didn't care. She didn't really want to kill him anyways. But he had already lost his brother, and probably had nothing left since he had joined Gaea, so wouldn't she be doing him a favor by killing him?
Summer~ Summer said gently, "You would rather him go around killing random people? In situations like this, people have to make sacrifices. I know it's hard, but..." Summer hesitated. Terra would probably kill her for saying all of this.

Cole- He ducked the blow, just like Caroline anticipated. He was trying hard not to just blow up with anger. Taking a deep breath, he took a step back, avoiding her. Wait...What was he doing here again? He was getting revenge. But wait...he never hit girls. He had made a promise with his brother to always be a gentleman. Even if it had been a joking promise, they had both kept it. Cole was going to strike at her with his sword, then decided better of it suddenly. The thorns changed, shortening until they were just roach vines. They spun around Caroline in a frenzy to capture her. And Cole was beginning to get tired, so so tired...
Terra~ She looked down, not meeting Summer's eyes. She knew her words were true, but she hated it. "Hey, just tell me what's bothering you, stupid. It's okay to trouble others. It's okay to be selfish once in a while." Cy. She wanted to see him. Not now, though. She gazed at Ace, who was trying to help Colton. His face was the same, but it was much gentler, and just not him. But it gave her an idea. She owed Colton something. Reaching into her pockets she began to dig around. Then she snatched her bag off her back. "It has to be here somewhere!" She kept digging frantically. "It has to be here..."
