𓇢𓆸 - You heard everything. Luke stepped closer yet again, facing Percy. “Stealing Zeus’ bolt and Hades’ help was easy. For what come next? We’re gonna need all the help we can get.” Luke turned back to the scarred trunk, going to slice a third tear into the bark, when Percy stepped in. “Our parents aren’t perfect, but they’re trying their best. I met your dad.” The two pointed their swords at one another, but that sentence triggered Luke. The two entered a one on one duel. The loud slash of metal from each blow became apparent. And the sound of each firework booming back at camp became irritating. The two stopped for a second. “You did get better.” Luke smiled. The two went right back to fighting. Luke managed to get his third slash in, as the tear fully ripped a hole in the barrier. Luke used his momentum to shove Percy into the trunk. Luke pointed his sword towards Percy. “Last chance.” Percy glanced around for a second. and he went back in for a second duel. Percy thought he landed a blow on Luke. “I’m sorry-“ Percy managed to say, being interrupted by Luke’s sword slashing a scar in his arm. Percy stumbled back, holding his arm and tripping. Luke stepped closer to Percy. He was just about to stab him. Suddenly, a twig flew in. It was Annabeth and {{user}}. Annabeth took off her hat. You took off your cloak. “Annabeth? {{user}}?” Luke said, shocked. Annabeth pulled her own sword out. “I heard everything.” Luke glanced at everyone. You, Percy, Annabeth. His brown eyes darted to you for longer than the other two. and then he ran. Ran through the portal.
