Mark of Athena (My Version)

Annabeth
7 months was how long Percy Jackson, the love of my life, was lost, and that was how long I felt despair and that a small part of me was missing. As the Argo II sailed in the sky, questions flowed through my mind like, did he remember me? , does he have a new girlfriend? , which reminded me to make a mental note to give Hera a goddess-sized slap upside her head. Suddenly, a voice similar to a flights attendant’s voice boomed overhead, cutting my line of thought, “We are soon arriving at Camp Jupiter, so please fasten your seatbelt and – Ow, Piper! You did not need to punch me!” Leo’s voice returned to normal at the end after receiving a punch by Piper for playing around. Hearing that, I could not resist a smile, though the thoughts in my head just could not match my expression, whilst my worry expanded to what the romans will think of us. Everybody except Leo, whose fingers were flying over the controls, making a feeble attempt to not crash the ship at a building, which I assume is the senate house, stopped what they were doing. Piper stopped practicing her charmspeak and Jason stopped pacing around. I looked down and could not help but admire the landscape at the roman camp even though it was a little tattered. It was a bowl-shaped valley, the basin floor was rumpled with smaller hills,golden plains and stretches of forest. In the centre of the valley, nestled by a small clear river, was a small city of white marble buildings with red-tiled roofs. Some had domes and columned porticoes, like national monuments. There was a five-story tall Roman Coliseum gleaming in the sun, next to a long oval arena, across the lake was another hill dotted with temples.Right below the ship was rows of Roman campers bustling about and gazing in awe at us. Horns blew as a welcome, just when we touched down onto a clearing-fortunately. |

Do you need it longer?
Jason
“Home” was the one thing I thought of during the trip. A wave of joy and anxiousness rippled through me once we touched down with a soft thud. I looked down and shielded my eyes from the golden blinding light, it was just as I remembered, except it looked like a war raged here not long ago. I was informed that I was to step out first to show the Romans, my real family, a familiar face and so I did after the door was let down. A collective gasp went through the crowd and a tall girl with dark piercing eyes and long black hair stepped out. She said, “J..Jason?” with disbelief. “Reyna. I’m back!” I replied and I ran over to her and tackled her in a hug, despite the fact that two hundred pairs of eyes followed our movement. Then, Annabeth, Piper and Leo came out seeing that it was a happy reunion. The romans shuffled backwards after seeing the Greek and I noticed some had drawn their weapons. I then nodded at Reyna to make her introduction, and she addressed them, “I am Reyna, daughter of Bellona, who is the goddess of war and the praetor of the Twelfth Legion.” Annabeth was on tiptoes scanning the crowd and scrunching her eyebrows seeming as if she was searching for someone. Of course, her boyfriend Percy Jackson! Now that I thought of it, I wonder if he was really as powerful and handsome as she had supposedly described. She quickly mumbled, “Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena/Minerva, official architect of Olympus.” Leo then took her ending as his entrance saying he was Leo Valdez, a son of Vulcan and a fire user. To emphasize his point, his hand burst into flames, and “ooh”s and “aah”s could be heard and he grinned from one elf-like ear to another as if that was the reaction he dreamed for. Piper and I rolled our eyes and exchanged a knowing glance before she told everyone she was a charm-speaker. Out of nowhere, a skinny blonde boy holding a teddy bear with stuffing coming out of it yelled out, “How can we trust them? They just landed and came out of a heavily armed ship with Jason! They have kidnapped him and want to betray us after we make friends with them! They are spies, so we should attack them!” My hand instinctively went to my pocket where I kept my coin, the weapon I had and I spat out the one name that I hated, Octavian. But surprisingly, no one made a move and silence hung the air. A boy with a mob of black hair and sea-green eyes strolled into the arena, followed by two others, one girl, one boy. That very boy had a strange powerful aura like an Olympian god, though his eyes had mixed feelings making me feel warm to him and at the same time cautious. He made his way toward me and held out his hand, “Hey! I finally get to meet you, famous Jason Grace. I am Percy Jackson, son of Neptune/Poseidon.”
And it's okay you don't have a cliffy(: it's better without cliffy's
My work might not be what you expected 'cuz I am only in primary 5
Percy
After all the “Jason this” and “Jason that”, I finally meet him. He had blonde hair, electric blue eyes and a scar on his upper lip, he was mysterious and a little too perfect, just similar to the feeling that you don’t know if a storm was coming your way or not. Sparks flew as soon as I came into contact, and a shock went through me. “Son of Zeus?” I asked. He nodded and he looked over my shoulder to Hazel and Frank. I stepped aside and allowed them to start a conversation as I looked around. My eyes met Annabeths, Gods, she was still dazzling. Her gray eyes clouded over like it was after a storm and I ran over to her and embraced with her.
“Hey Wise Girl! Missed you!” I said between breathes after we kissed.
“You remembered me, seaweed brain? Why didn’t you find me? I was worried sick!” she said.
“Of course I did. You are the one thing Hera cannot remove from my memory.”
I then greeted Piper and Leo, a guy that looked somewhat like a Latino elf with smoke coming out of his hair and oil dripping from his hands. I looked over to Jason and saw him swarmed with his old friends, and decided to let them have their happy moment while I toured the rest around. Hazel and Frank showed Piper and Leo the cabins, while Annabeth and I sneaked away to my favourite view. It was a miniature version of Ancient Rome, the city was chaotic and colourful, with buildings crowded together at hap-hazard angles. I stared as Annabeth widened her eyes in surprise, I slipped my arms around her waist and said, “Demigods can have families here.” She looked back and whispered, “Assuming we survive….” We were so lost in thought that we had forgotten about the senate meeting where we would discuss about the quest. I came back to reality and pulled her to the Senate house, just in time for roll call.
Leo
We arrived at the Senate House. I sat down with Percy, Annabeth, Frank, Hazel and Piper. Hazel, a roman girl with brown wavy hair and golden eyes freaked me out, she was always looking at me as if I was a zombie. Reyna stood up and spoke in a loud clear voice to us and the senators, “So we are here to discuss the quest and who are going. Jason, Percy, Leo, Piper, Hazel and Frank are going. That is six. But we need one more.” More murmurs spread through the senators. Reyna then turned and talked with Percy, after a moment, she stood up announcing, “Annabeth shall go! Now that we have settled this matter, we would need to know each other stories and who we would choose to be the extra people for battle.” Not long after, it was decided that, Reyna, Bobby, Caroline, Katrina, Paula, Maria, Jonathan, Alta, Jacob, Simon, Micheal and Rufus shall go. Octavian took his chance to pipe up, “ Then, who would be the praetors taking your place?” His face masked innocence and polite concern, I may not be smart, but it was still obvious that he wanted the job. I glanced over at Percy and was relieved that he had a confident look on his face as he replied, “Angela from the First legion shall take Reyna’s place and Enoch from the Second legion shall take my place.Now we must move on to each other’s stories.” Octavian glared at Percy and sat back down in a huff.
Piper stood up, saying she would like to go first. "So I guess I've told you who I am. I'm just about sixteen, and I've been at camp for about six months. I'm the head of the Aphrodite cabin and a charmspeaker. My dad raised me alone. As I got to middle school I guess I just started wanting his attention because he rarely had time for me. I began asking people for things and they gave them to me. Then the police came after me. I got kicked out of four schools in four years. Then I got to the Wilderness School, where I met Leo and Jason. I don't have ADD or dyslexia like most demigods, and my main weapon is Katoptris."
Next it was me. "You all must know me. I've already said everything at Camp Jupiter. But, I should also tell you that I'm sixteen, been here as long as Piper has, and I'm head of the Hephaestus cabin. "Tía Callida, Hera, was my babysitter when I was younger." Percy's eyes widened in shock at what I'd just said. "She did some pretty nasty things. Then I accidentally killed my mom when I was trying to save her from Gaea when I was seven. I ran away from all of the foster homes the court put me in, so I wound up at the Wilderness School. I'm good with tools and all that stuff. I use just about any tool as a weapon. I have ADHD but no dyslexia.I am also known as the amazing…flame-boy! Your turn, Animal Boy." At the last words, I flared up in a bright, blazing flame. I guess I couldn’t help but show-off a bit.
Everyone looked slightly baffled for a moment before realizing who 'Animal Boy' was. Frank got up shakily, still recovering from Leo's whole flame-on thing. "I'm Frank Zhang, son of Mars. I'm sixteen, and I've been at camp for roughly seven weeks including my quest. Uh, I'm also a centurion of the fifth legion, and a descendant of Periclymenus as well as a shape-shifter."
" I was raised by my mom and grandmother. When I was a toddler, Juno came and told them my life relied on one of the sticks in the fireplace If it burns out I'm dead–literally. Four months ago my mom died in the war. I was taken to the wolf house and found my way to Camp Jupiter. I have ADD but not dyslexia, I can of course transform into animals, and I'm best with a bow and arrow."
Hazel, who was next to Frank, went up. "I am Hazel Levesque, daughter of Pluto," I heard a few murmurs of surprise from the Greeks. "I've been at Camp Jupiter since last September. And I am the owner of Arion. I grew up with my mom in New Orleans. She sold my cursed gems to people, and then Gaea made us move to Alaska. I didn't even get to say goodbye to Sammy…" I glanced up when I heard the familiar name and she was looking at me
"Funny," I said. "My grandfather's name was Sammy."
"H–his name was Sammy Valdez?" Hazel queried urgently.
"Uh, yeah. That's my grandpa. Why?" I inquired. Why would Hazel be curious?
"Anyhow," Hazel continued as if he hadn't spoken, looking slightly relieved, "we moved to Alaska and Gaea forced me to raise the giant Alcyoneus. On the final day, I refused. I blew up the place in a sense, but it didn't work. He still rose. I–my mom and I–we…" Tears were beginning to track down her face. Frank reached out and held her hand, surprisingly making me feel the slightest bit jealous. She turned to Reyna and spoke quietly. "Percy and Frank know this. Jason, I think you were guessing” Jason nodded knowingly, spurring my curiosity. Perplexity flashed across Reyna's face, then disappeared in the light of dawning truth.
"You–oh…"
Hazel nodded. "My mom and I died."
Everything fell into place in my mind, like puzzle pieces falling together. "You dated my grandpa?" I exclaimed. "Only for a day, but yeah. I was born in 1928 and I died in 1942. Now, back to what I was saying. I would have been placed in Elysium, but I partially took my mom's punishment, and we both went to the fields of Asphodel. Roughly seventy years later, Nico showed up and said that the doors of death had been opened. He'd wanted to get his sister out, but that she'd already gone for rebirth. He took me out instead and brought me to Camp Jupiter about a month after the war had ended. In battle I prefer to have Arion, and I use my cavalry sword. When I get agitated, or by my own will, cursed gems pop up out of the ground, so I warn you not to touch them. I have slight ADD and dyslexia."
Piper
"I suppose I'll go?" Reyna asked. "My sister, Hylla, and I were raised for a few years by our father until he died in a car crash. Hylla took me away, and we eventually ended up on Circe's island. We became her assistants until…well, four years ago. That's when Percy and Annabeth showed up and set the pirates free. Blackbeard held us captive. Hylla and I quickly learned to use weapons well, and he came to respect us. We were able to escape and we made it to the wolf house. When we'd arrived at camp, Hylla told me of the Amazons. She went to join them and left me. But I fared well. I'm good with pretty much any weapon, but I prefer my dagger. I'm quite good with battle strategy, being a daughter of Belonna. I have ADD and slight dyslexia."
There was a silence after that. Annabeth broke it by saying, "Reyna, I'm really sorry–"
"Don't be. If it weren't for you I wouldn't be praetor. Jason? I believe it is your turn."
" Well, you all know who I am. I'm sixteen, been at Camp Jupiter for twelve years, Camp Half-Blood since December. I guess I'll skip all of the pre-camp parts. Reyna and I went on a quest together with Gwendolyn to slay the Trojan sea monster. On the way, we ran into some venti, Dracnae, centaurs, and more. We stole Aurum and Argentium, found help and shelter from Aeolus, made some way through the labyrinth, and of course slew the monster. On our way back, we wound up on Mt. Othrys by way of the labyrinth, and saw Saturn was in a kind of coffin. We were going to stab him, but some of his followers came, so we fled. They chased us as we were running, and tried to drag us into this big stadium. Something happened and they weren't able to, though. We got back to camp and hip-hip hooray.
"During the war, I fought Krios, killed him, and let the legion to topple the throne of Saturn." Leo whistled, impressed. He'd heard parts of the story before, but never the whole thing. "I used to use Ivlivs, but now that it's broken, I use the gladii that Juno gave me. I can summon lightning, create air storms, and control the winds. I have ADD."
Percy nudged Annabeth, who nudged him back. They began a war of "You go!"s until Annabeth finally rolled her eyes and gave in. "You all know my name and mother. I'm now just seventeen, and I've been at camp for ten years. I'm counselor of the Athena cabin. I grew up with my dad, stepmother, and half-brothers. They never really appreciated me, so I ran away when I was seven. I met Luke and Thalia in Virginia. Grover got us to camp, but…you all know what happened. I once tried going back home for the school year, but it didn't work out. I was a year-rounder until five years ago. Then it worked out with my dad. I usually fight with my knife, but I'm good with just about anything. Being a daughter of Athena, I'm naturally smart, and I've been told that I'm an exceptional architect. I have ADHD and dyslexia. Percy can tell you the rest."
"Uh, yeah, okay. To put it shortly…
"I killed the fury Alecto before I knew I was a demigod, and when I was getting to camp I killed the Minotaur. I got a quest with Grover and Annabeth to go to the underworld and retrieve Zeus's master bolt. On the way killed two furies, I slew Medusa, battled the chimera, jumped out of the Gateway Arch, and was known as a fugitive to the mortals. We got stuck in the Lotus Hotel and Casino for a while, encountered Procrustes, befriended Cerberus, almost got dragged to Tartarus, and I battled Ares and won. We got the bolt back to Olympus, and Luke betrayed us to Kronos.
"The next year, we encountered stymphalian birds. Tyson, Annabeth, and I followed Clarisse on her quest for the golden fleece, we killed the hydra, faced Scylla and Chadbrys, went to Circe's island," Percy nodded at Reyna, "faced the Sirens, battled Polyphemus, and helped Clarisse get the golden fleece. Then it worked too well and brought Thalia back to life." I could feel my jaw slowly dropping to the floor.
"Half a year later Grover, Annabeth, Thalia, and I found Nico and Bianca under the watch of the Manticore in a school. The Manticore took Annabeth; Artemis went to find her, and Zoë–lieutenant of Artemis at the time–Thalia, Bianca, Grover, and I went on a quest to find Artemis, who'd gone missing. I defeated the Nemean Lion with freeze-dried ice cream, became friends with Apollo–who, by the way, is an…interesting poet–, we faced skeleton warriors, rode the Erymathian Boar to safety, found out that Nico and Bianca had been in the Lotus Hotel and Casino since World War II, and Bianca died. We had a run-in with Ares and Aphrodite, I captured Nereus, got the Ophiotarus to safety with Grover's help, I met Rachel at Hoover Dam, we met Annabeth's family, went to Mt. Othrys, I held the weight of the sky, I fought Atlas, Artemis got Atlas back in his place, Zoë died because of Atlas–her father. Thalia became a hunter of Artemis, therefore passing the great prophecy onto me." I was pretty sure my jaw would snap off at any moment and fall to the ground at any moment.
"A few months later," Percy continued, "I did another thing that I'm not allowed to speak of. Anyways, the third year at camp, Annabeth got a quest to go through the labyrinth. Tyson and Grover came with us. We met Janus and Hera, rescued Briares from Kampê, found Nico–who had gone missing–at Geryon's ranch, I cleaned the stables of the man-eating horses, and killed Geryon. Then we followed an automaton spider to Hephaestus, Tyson and Grover separated from us to find Pan, Annabeth and I went to Mt. Saint Helen's and fought some telekhines, I made Mt. Saint Helen's erupt by accident and woke Typhon, and wound up on Calypso's Island. Everyone thought I was dead even though I wasn't. We got Rachel to help us through the labyrinth, we encountered a sphinx, I defeated Antaeus, and found out that the swords master that year was really Dedaelus. We saw Kronos rise in Luke's form, Rachel nailed him in the eye with a blue plastic hairbrush, found Pan, who faded, we had a battle at camp, and Dedaelus died, taking the labyrinth with him. I also found the bronze dragon, uh, Festus, with Beckendorf, and we had to fight a ton of these giant ants and stuff.
"I went to the underworld a second time, but I'm not allowed to tell you guys what happened there. Last summer, I went with Beckendorf to blow up Kronos' cruise ship, but…"
"It didn't work out?" Leo guessed. "It didn't explode?"
"It exploded, but…" So that's how he died, I thought. "Beckendorf didn't make it. The ship blew up with him on it. I went to the underworld again with Nico, got the curse of Achilles, met Hestia earlier on, fought the Clazmonian sow, got the east and Hudson rivers to defend the city, Annabeth and I set up defenses for Manhattan, fought hyperborean giants, met Prometheus, acquired Pandora's pithos, gave the pithos to Hestia. Then Silena came along leading the Ares cabin into battle. She…died, trying to kill a drakon. Clarisse avenged her death and killed it. I fought and defeated Helios, and I fought Kronos. In the end, Luke came through, and I gave him Annabeth's knife so he could kill himself, therefore killing Kronos. Then there's the whole deal about Rachel stealing my pegasus and becoming the Oracle. And…that's it. I use Anaklusmos, or Riptide, for my weapon. I can control water, create water-influenced storms, and I can create earthquakes. I also have ADHD and dyslexia."
After a long moment of awkward silence Leo said, "Wow."
Percy
After that meeting, Reyna hurried us to meet the fellow campers that were joining our quest and to tell Angela and Enoch of their role while we were on leave. Then, we had to board the Argo II to Camp Half-Blood along with the quest members, including the amazons, to my surprise. I had mentioned about it and Hylla had her dagger at my throat as she explained their help was for the world, not for the boys. Jeez, so touchy about the subject! It was still sad to say goodbye to the place that accepted me so fast. I only thought of the possibility of me surviving these matters and heading back there, If only it could be true instead of a desperate dream during the trip to Camp Half-blood. I never ever imagined myself living to an adult and to have a family…. Then, the ship went through a invisible border and all my thoughts and worries faded away as the sight of dozens of campers, new and old greeted me. I just got off the ship and had my head soon buried in Rachel’s red bangles. “You're back!" Rachel cried. "Finally!" "Percy!" Grover bleated while imitating Rachel's actions.
"Hey, Grover! You too, Rachel. Man, it's been long." Then speaking out to the crowd, I said, "It's great to see everyone still alive and, um, so many new people. You too, Chiron, Mr. D. Oh, and the hunters! Thaila!” There were many confused looks from the newer kids who'd only heard of Percy. "Perseus Jackson, Hero of Olympus, is back!" Rachel clarified. Cheers and whooping filled my ears.
Percy and Jason stepped back up onto the ramp at exactly the same time to quiet the crowd. It worked, but Annabeth noted that they both seemed a bit nerved that the other had done the same thing. "I'd like to introduce the last two of the seven of the Great Prophecy," I announced. As if by silent agreement, Jason continued. "They're both from my camp and from the fifth cohort. Hazel, daughter of Pluto, and Frank, son of Mars. There are more campers joining us too, from Camp half-blood and Camp Jupiter. Then I left and went to Grover’s side, while Jason went to greet her sister, Thaila. Suddenly, Tyson, Ms. O’ leary and Ella the harpy popped out from behind me after shadow-travelling from Camp-Jupiter. One glance at them made Grover collapse into a heap. Seriously, no words can describe how good it felt to be familiar with everything for once! We had little time before we needed to get back on the quest,so we packed more supplies and decided that Rachel, Clarisse, Conner, Travis, Will, Jake, Pollux, Butch, Chris, Katie, Lou Ellen, Lacy , Danae , Tyson, Ms. O’ leary and Ella the harpy should come with, including the hunters. We all boarded the ship and were assigned rooms. There was a huge lurch and ship began to rise. There were cheers from both on the deck of the ship and below. The sails billowed, filling with air. I stood at the edge staring down at my beautiful home, and a tear ran down my cheek, I quickly looked around to see if anyone saw that , but they were all below deck preparing for sleep except for Jason and leo who were at the steering wheel. I exhaled deeply, it looks like it could be the last time I was going to be at the camp.
Annabeth
Dreams suck, especially for a demigod like me. There I was sleeping peacefully when my mother’s face came into view. Her black curly hair wavered and her gray eyes that seem painfully similar to mines met. As she spoke, it sounded like she had three voices bouncing off the walls of an empty room.
“Greetings, daughter.” she said in a clipped tone.
“Mother! I mean... M’lady.” I answered horrified.
“I have observed you. You have done well, but not as I wanted. I am sorry for what you have to become,” she continued, “after I grant you the mark of me. You will be under my control and you shall have knowledge on almost everything. You are still young and you don’t understand most things. You rely on your friends and that is unacceptable for my daughter! We shall witness what will happen if we do so.
“No, I do not –!”I cried helplessly, but I was too late, Athena unleashed a blaze of fire and it scorched my arm. The pain was unbearable, like knives piercing every patch of skin on me. I let out a blood- curling scream and then the pain subsided. I watched in horror as the smoke at my arm drifted away and unveiled a burn mark of an owl. Athena faded into mist and the mist swirled away and just like that my eyes burst open and I woke up clammy with sweat, but this time also with the mark of Athena.
Jason
I woke with a start after hearing that deafening cry. Only 1 thought came to my mind, “Monsters”. I bolted uprights and knocked my head on the bottom of the upper bunker bed. I shook Percy awake and we both scrambled out of the door. As we made our way to the source of the sound, we saw Piper and some other girls and boys do the same. “Thump!”, I spun around to find Percy sprawled on the floor next to snoring Leo, whom he had just tripped over. He got back up and said, “Looks like Leo is too tired to steer the Argo II.” Leo rolled onto his tummy and muttered, “Piper” over and over again. Percy and I snickered before deciding to leave Leo to his love dreams. We then hurried into Annabeth’s room, which turned out to be the source. Once we entered, I took in the sight of the room; Annabeth was shaking from head to toe in the corner while girls surrounded her, and the boys stood awkwardly to one side. I stole a glance at Percy to see his reaction and my predictions were correct, his face was indeed etched with concern and worry as he rushed to her side. After a lot of crying, comforting and reasoning, Rachel stood up to announce to the confused boys, like me, “Annabeth has been granted the mark of Athena-,” there was a gasp, “everyone knows what it is so let’s not press matters and-.” Then suddenly the spirit of Delphi interrupted from within her as green smoke poured from her mouth, and swirling around her making a dramatic effect.
Seven half-bloods shall answer the call
To storm or fire the world must fall
The mark of Athena burns through Rome
Wisdom’s daughter walks alone
For victory to come within grasp
Each hero is yet to complete their task
An oath to keep with a final breath
And foes bear arms to doors of death
Then, she blacked out, and however long I stayed in Camp Half-blood, I would never get used to that. Suddenly the door burst open and Leo came stumbling in asking, “Did I miss something?” We all glared at him.
bye! <3 your story
Percy
I just did not know what to think, my girlfriend that I had just met after not seeing each other for 9 months, is said to block us from completing the quest, possibly turning us against each other. Judging by the fact that the wise old hag Athena, thunder rumbles, is messing with her mind, there is a 70% chance of killing me as well, we all know she doesn’t even like me! It isn’t fair! Ya, I know, of course, a normal life shouldn’t be fair, but my life is beyond normal. Great, and I have to worry about a new prophecy with my fragging ADHD mind, I don’t think, Annabeth does, though she is not too busy bailing her stunning gray eyes out to do so. What was that Chiron always say, “Ah, Let’s not think too much, prophecies sometimes have 2 meanings, right?” They all looked in awe at me as to what I just said. I am truly offended that none of my cousins had faith in my studies. I just shook my head and went over to the steering wheel of the Argo II. I felt the ship lunge ahead on the waves by my command. I leaned over the edge and gazed at the slight ripples of water, it always calmed me, while I let the others smooth things over. Suddenly, a chill crept up my skin and an eerie silence was formed. I heard an ancient powerful voice speak into my head. You may have reached your destination, Rome, but you shall not win this time. I was confused, the sound was coming from a clump of rocks. My eyes caught a shape of a face and I stumbled back in shock when I realized the voice came from a rock with a surface morphed into Gaea’s sleeping face. No scratch that, half-sleeping, her eyelids were half-open, she was almost awake. My sons and I will be rising by winter’s solstice. I can control you from within, I shall tear you inside out! Prepare to perish. With that, the tension was lifted and murmurs passed through the crowd with demigods exchanging worried looks. From that, I took that they too heard the same thing too. Hazel then took the chance to speak up, “Well, at this point of the quest, we must think positive and focus on things one at a time. We all heard Gaea, we have now reached Rome.” Her warm gold eyes helped settle us down, as she gave me a nod. I turned the ship closer to the docks and parked it. I let them off the ship before hopping down myself. We walked onto the empty streets where shops were dimmed or closed, and the old newspapers fluttered aimlessly at the sidewalk. A scent of dread, misery and death hung in the air. A glass-shattering scream pierced the air. We all swung around and gasped at the sight of the looming shadow towering over us.
