The Son Of Neptune
Camp Jupiter, CA- Breaking News! A couple of days ago in Seward, Alaska, on top of Hubbard Glacier, Percy Jackson, Hazel Levesque, and Frank Zhang all battled the giant Alcyoneus (the anti-Pluto, Hazel’s father). Their goal is to find the Roman Demigod Legion’s lost eagle (their symbol of power), which has been missing since the 1980’s. They all venture to Alaska, which is beyond the Ancient Roman Gods source of power and help. Hazel and Frank’s parents are Roman Gods, Percy’s godly parent is Greek.
“It was kinda scary,” said Hazel. “It was my first big battle, since I had been dead for 70 years. I didn’t know if I was going to die again or not.”
Frank’s lifeline is tied to a piece of magical firewood. He was cursed as a baby by Juno (the goddess of marriage and family life). The wood can set on fire whenever he wants it to.
Percy is probably the best and most powerful demigod to ever be born in America. He is a son of Poseidon and can make hurricanes, storm surges, and make any type of water do what he wants.
Hazel should not be alive. She is a daughter of Pluto (a.k.a Hades) who died in 1941 and was snuck out of the underworld by Nico DiAngelo, her step-brother, who is a son of Hades. She also has a special power, she can summon any type of metal, stone, or jewel just by concentrating. She can also make them do whatever she wants, like make it fly 30 miles away.
“Hazel has some pretty awesome powers. Once in Seattle, she was able to explode a silver jewelry crate, and make two enemies hang upside down from their ankles on a railing that was two stories high with just a flick of her hand!” said Percy.
Alcyoneus had also captured Thanatos, the god of Death, which meant that nobody could die as long as he was chained up. Thanatos said, “Only the flames of Life can burn through chains of Death.” Frank had to use his own firewood to burn through the chains and that almost killed him. Thankfully, he survived.
While Frank was burning his life away with the chains and firewood (literally), Percy and Hazel fought the enemies. Percy sliced through lines of ghost soldiers that were trying to get to Frank and kill him, as a hurricane formed around Percy. Alcyoneus was immortal in his home territory, so they knocked him out, dragged him on a thirty-five foot long sled all the way to Canada.
“I have to say, Alcyoneus was a pretty lame fighter,” said Frank. “I mean, fifteen minutes and he was knocked out 3 times. And as he was getting up, I changed form to a grizzly bear and charged. He just got up and yelled a war cry and as I charged him, he fell back down and got knocked out again and Hazel killed him. How stupid is that?”
After they killed Alcyoneus, they all rode back to Camp Jupiter (the Roman demigod headquarters) on Arion and their sled, and prepared for another battle.
