"You know who I am?" Ace was genuinely surprised. Hd Shade and Terry been going off and spreading his name? Oh well. This person needed help. "Hold still. This is going to hurt a great deal. But you have to bear it and stay still, okay? Oh yes, and awake, of course." He ripped of a part of his sleeve. He rolled it up quickly and handed it to the son of Thanatos. "Bite on this. And remember to stay still. I'm sorry if it hurts, but I don't have a choice."
Before he gave Colton time to answer, he resumed his work. The power of the earth surged through him, his tattoo flashing a painfully bright green. He pressed his hands to Colton's broken ribs and a green glow began to emanate from his hands. Slowly, his ribs began to knit themselves together. It was going to hurt, Ace knew, so he tried to speed up the process. It wouldn't go any faster.

Caroline was ready to deflect Cole's blade, but the son of Demeter didn't do anything, except changing the thorns into vines. Slightly puzzled, Caroline swiped at the vines furiously, trying not to get her sword hand entangled in the plants. Was Cole getting weaker? Was that why he didn't slash at her when he could've?
Summer almost leaped back in surprise as Terra suddenly started searching through her bag. "What are you doing? What are you looking for?" Summer's hand tightened around her knife, watching Terra wearily.

Colton eyed Ace warily, but there wasn't anything he could do but trust him for now. He bit down on the cloth, wondering what he was going to do. The moment his ribs began to form back together, the pain began. He tensed, his groans muffled by the cloth. The broken bones felt like they had been lit onf fire. He bit down hard on the cloth, squeezing his eyes closed to endure it.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry...I know it hurts. Just a little longer..." Ace pressed more, trying to pour all of his energy into it. The process was beginning to speed. A moment longer... The son of Gaea was slowly tiring. He kept going, borrowing energy from the earth and the grass around him wilted. He finally finished, stopping. The green glow was gone, and he sat back, gasping.
Terra~ She ignored Summer, and continued digging. At last, she let out a sigh of relief. Her fingers closed on the antidote she had been looking for. She yanked it out of the bag, standing. She whirled around, shoving it at Summer. "Shade...! Give this to Shade. He needs it."
Cole (I'll play him cuz I'm bored and Shade is playing ping pong)- He Had calmed down a great deal now, fighting back at the anger provoking sensation within him. He charged at Caroline, ducking any swings and swung the blunt back of the sword at her head, trying to knock her out with the hilt.

Summer caught it, examining it closely. "This is the antidote?" Summer asked, remembering the conversation with Colton the day before. She grinned, "Thanks a lot," and sprinted for the Infirmary, careful not to drop the antidote.
Caroline yelped as she saw Cole charging at her, and hurriedly ducked, swinging at the son of Demeter's stomach with her sword. She noticed that he wasn't trying to hit her with the blade, but just trying to disable her from attacking? Maybe she could use it to her advantage?

Colton shuttered, the pain still attacking him in waves. Slowly, he realized it was beginning to ebb. It left him slowly. He began to relax more, and he opened his eyes to look at Ace. He found that he could breathe properly. Very cautiously, the son of Thanatos sat up, then winced. His head hurt a great deal.
"Astounding!" Andrew exclaimed, looking at Ace in amazement. He had never seen anyone heal such an injury so fast. He must have been implementing the earth's power. Now, it was at its strongest. He was always interested in healing stuff. When Colton winced, the ghost hurried to help him sit up. "Don't move too much yet, sir. Be careful." He turned to Ace with a small smile. "I thank you for helping my master."
Colton nodded in a tired agreement. Holding his throbbing head and getting a few normal gulps of air, he spoke, "You guys...don't just stand here and worry about me. We're in the middle of a battle! I'll get to the infirmary myself." He stood up wobbly.
"Right! Wait..don't go by yourself. Take Steven. Steven, protect him, okay?" The ghost touched his shoulder lightly.
Colton scowled, as if to say he didn't need the help, but he didn't object.

Cole- He sprang backwards, stumbling over an exposed root. The blade made a slice across his left arm that he used to block. Blood splattered and Cole narrowed his eyes. Huffing and still moving, he launched himself forward, twisting his sword as he met her to disarm her.
Tyler- He hadn't meant to kill Keith. Feeling guilt spread through him as the son of Athena fell, he had to look away. He had killed his friend. There was no turning back now. He spotted Summer running across, carrying something. Well, was it supplies to the infirmary? It would never get there. He would make sure of that. He shot a golden arrow he usually never used. It zipped through the air with speed and the accuracy of an Apollo child. He jumped off the tree, chasing after it. If the arrow missed, it would still release a great white light that could blind anyone nearby. That was when he was going to come in. He unsheathed his sword and continued to run.

Summer had almost reached the Infirmary when seemingly materializing out of nowhere a golden arrow flew at her. She hadn't even noticed it until it caught the glimmer of the sun, but it came it her too fast for her to dodge. Summer had put her knife back in it's sheath to make sure she wouldn't drop the antidote. The arrow embedded itself in her shoulder, and Summer stumbled, wincing, but managed to keep a hold on the antidote. Then the arrow suddenly blazed a brilliant white light. Summer instinctively blocked her eyes with her arm, but dots still swam in her vision.
As he twisted, Caroline struggled to keep a hold on her blade, but it gave her a few seconds. A jet stream of water shot at Cole just as Caroline's sword went flying. She hoped it would distract him while she retrieved her sword.

Tyler- Again, he felt some regret for hitting the daughter of Zeus, but it wasn't the time. He sprang forward, shielding his eyes knowingly from the light. Then he kept going, aiming a kick at her to knock the girl down while she was blinded.
Cole- He turned to the side, blocking the water with the flat of his blade. It knocked the sword out of his hands, and he was surprised by its strength. He didn't hesitate to retrieve it. Instead, he slid in front of Caroline to keep her from getting the sword and aimed a punch at her stomach.

Gaea had felt the shift in powers. The woman rose out of the earth slowly, taking the form of a small girl. She looked around, her rich golden eyes shining with bloodlust. Her powerful aura made some demigods begin to turn around.
"Someone's being disobedient. You should have just stated hidden, and I would have left you alone."
She wasn't talking to anyone in particular, it seemed, but her powerful voice rippled enough for everyone in the clearing to hear. And the person she was talking to knew best who she was addressing. A tendril of earth shot out at that certain boy. He currently was occupied with trying to gain his energy back after healing an insignificant ant. After all the hard work from Cy, he was ruining it.
"Won't my son answer me now? Ace? You know, I preferred it if your eyes were blue."
She giggled like a little girl, well, she was one in this form.

Ace was still trying to regain energy from healing Colton. That was when he felt her coming. "Guys! Ru-" He didn't have time to finish, her voice echoed through the clearing, soft and enticing. He got up to run and possibly hide, but he wasn't fast enough. The tendril had snagged him from behind, wrapping around his neck a few time firmly. "Ugh-"
Ace was yanked into the air, struggling defiantly. He coughed, pulling at the tendrils uselessly. He faced his mother, trying to get air. "Hello, mother." He managed to reply with a wry smile. "It's nice to see you again too. And I preferred your eyes closed."

Ace had returned. Terry had felt that much. There was no one else who had that power. He could recognize it anywhere. It was the power that had saved his life. The one he had sacrificed himself for. As much as he wanted to believe it, Ace had died. How could he be back?
Racing now, the son of Minerva knocked aside a few enemy demigods hurriedly. He had to see. He made it to the place where he spotted Colton recovering, and a little girl with pale skin the color of sycamore tree bark. Her hair was a muddy brown, and her eyes were a rich golden. He felt almost mesmerized by her light and almost childish voice. It was so innocent. He did not expect Gaea to sound like that at all in her awakening. He knew it was her because she was holding Ace before her by some tendrils wrapped around his neck. Terry gritted his teeth. Relief that he really had returned-it didn't matter how he had returned, he was just hell of a glad he was back-quickly changed to anger that Gaea might just end him again.
Terry leapt out from the side of the battle, swinging down his staff at the little girl. It felt kind of odd, hitting such a small and frail looking girl, but he didn't see an option here. He had to make her release his friend.

"Ugh..."
Summer fell on her back, then rolled to the side, the antidote safely held to her chest. She didn't care who it was, she just wanted to get the antidote to the Infirmary. Instead of attacking, Summer jumped up and sprinted for whatdirection she thought the Infirmary was.
Caroline hadn't expected for him to sacrifice his own weapo to stop her. Unfortunately for him, she had taken classes on this kind of stuff before camp. Caroline blocked his punch with her left arm, then threw a punch of her own with her other hand.

Gaea turned her head just a bit, one intense golden gaze resting on Terry. Like a whip, a tendril lashed out straight at the son of Minerva to knock him aside like he was no more than an annoying fly. She kept one eye on Ace, her commanding voice louder and clearer. "Cy. Get out of there and stop messing around."
Terra- She spotted Ace struggling, trying to keep Cy from returning. In a spark of selfishness, she decided not to help him. It would be better if he returned...right? Instead, she attacked the people closest to her. A shower of golden daggers zipping from her Aculeus. It was aimed at Steven, the son of Nyx. She knew if she attacked Colton directly, the boy would easily dodge or deflect. If she attacked someone he cared about, she could wound him if he protected. For the first time, Colton had someone he possibly cared for, and she was going to use it to her advantage.

Tyler- He slid in front of Summer, expertly blocking her way, his sword drawn at her. "Going somewhere? What do you have there?"
Cole let her punch slide past his face, he grabbed a hold of her arm to pull he forward while he aime a kick at the side of her head.

He saw a flash of golden, and in a moment, he covered Steven, Phantom flashing out in a blade. "Watch out!" He blocked the daggers, and they deflected off in clangs of metal. One sank into his shoulder, but he yanked it out with a curse, not showing any signs of pain.

(Sorry, I haven't been on) Steven helped Colton up and was making his way toward the infirmary. He decided to obey Andrew, no matter what Colton said. He didn't even see the daggers coming toward him. Colton managed to block them, well, most of them. One buried itself into his calf, another caught in an interesting way, it made a thin cut on the side of his face, and the way he turned made it pierce his shoulder. He screamed in pain. He wasn't used to this. The pain was new. Never in his life has he felt so much. He fell to his knees, then struggled back up. He saw the attacker, a girl with brown hair and violet eyes.

Colton cursed angrily at Steven's scream. Looked like he had missed some. He turned to the small boy worriedly. He gritted his teeth, shooting a glare at Terra. Andrew had ran off already, he couldn't bother the ghost. "I'm so sorry, Steven. I know it hurts. Hold on." The son of Thanatos picked him up, hugging him close tightly. "Hold on tight...I'm getting you to the infirmary." He looked back at Terra, wondering what it would take to outrun her. He began to dash forward, speeding over the ground.

"Protecting the kid? How unlike you." Terra sped up to intercept him. "Where do you think you're going?" The girl asked slyly. She stabbed a dagger at Steven. "How long can you protect him until you fall?"

Colton kept going, avoiding the enemies with expert dodges. He rolled away from a hellhound, still clinging tightly to Steven, making sure the smaller boy hadn't gotten hurt. Out of nowhere, Terra popped up. He growled to himself. He must have been slowed down from his weakness.
"Urgh." Colton barely had time to turn his shoulder to cover Steven from her dagger. The blade sliced a cut across his back. "You...coward..." Gasping tiredly, he sprang away, getting out of the way of Terra and heading again towards the infirmary.
