HOO react to Epic The Musical

Full Speed Ahead

Everyone was sitting down in their seat, they waited for the next song, wondering how this musical could possibly move on from Odysseus killing a baby.

[ODYSSEUS, SOLDIERS]
Six hundred men, six hundred men under my command
With only one goal in mind
(Make it back alive to our homeland)

"600 MEN!?" Percy exclaimed, he couldn't imagine going on a quest with 600 people.

Six hundred men, six hundred miles of open sea
But the problem's not the distance
(It's what lies in between)

The demigods frown, they remember their time in the sea of monsters, they would be lucky to go one day without being attacked by monsters.

And Ithaca's waiting (Ithaca's waiting)
My kingdom is waiting (The kingdom is waiting)
Penelope's waiting for me
So full speed ahead, full speed ahead

[EURYLOCHUS, SOLDIERS]
Captain (Eurylochus)

"Oh! I remember Eurylochus!" Annabeth grinned as she remembered Odysseus' right handed man. Alyx warned them that their memory might be a bit fuzzy because of time being tampered with but she remembered his part in the story.

Six hundred men (Six hundred men)
Six hundred men with big mouths to feed, and we've run out of supplies to eat
(Curse the war, our food store's depleted)

"Why are they still following him after they saw him kill a baby?" Leo asked.

"Because he's their King and Captian, it would be mutiny to not listen to his orders," Reyna explained.

Annabeth shook her head, "Odysseus was one of the smartest heroes in Greek mythology, he was a legacy of Hermes and Zeus, as well as a champion of Athena. They're heading into the Sea of Monsters, it would be reckless to not follow him."

Six hundred men (Six hundred men)
Six hundred reasons to take what we can
So captain, what's the plan?
(Captain, what's the plan?)

Jason and Reyna shuffled uncomfortably, from their time as Praetor they've had people come to them for seemingly impossible task.

[ODYSSEUS, SOLDIERS]
Watch where the birds fly
(Watch where the birds fly)
They will lead us to land
(They will lead us to land)
There we'll hunt for food, my second in command

Annabeth nodded, that's a smart plan.

Now full speed ahead, full speed ahead

[EURYLOCHUS, SOLDIERS]
We're up, we're off, and away we go
We're up, we're off, and away we go
We're up, we're off, and away we go

[POLITES]
Captain

[ODYSSEUS]
Polites!

Everyone smiled as they see Polites and Odysseus, watching as Odysseus suddenly goes from serious to friendly, they watch Odysseus smile for the first time in three song.

The demigods know how hard war is but friends always help.

[POLITES]
Look! There in the distance, I see an island
I see a light that faintly glows
Maybe they're people lighting a fire
Maybe they'll share some food, who knows?

Nico frowned, he felt like something bad was going to happen to Polites.

[ODYSSEUS]
Something feels off here
I see fire but there's no smoke

[EURYLOCHUS]
I say we strike first, we don't have time to waste
So let's raid the place and-

"He's fun."

[ODYSSEUS]
No
Polites gear up, you and I'll go ahead

[POLITES]
You and I'll go ahead

[ODYSSEUS]
We should try to find a way no one ends up dead

"No one else," Leo corrected, causing Hazel to gasp, the last thing she wanted was to be reminded of the last song.

[EURYLOCHUS]
We don't know what's ahead

[ODYSSSEUS, SOLDIERS, ALL]
Give me til sunrise, and if we don't return
Then six hundred men can make this whole place burn

"Geez."

Now full speed ahead
{Full speed ahead}
(Full speed ahead)
We're up, we're off, and away we go
(We're up, we're off, and away we go)
Full speed ahead
(We're up, we're off, and away we go)
(We're up, we're off, and a-)
{Full speed ahead}

"There was surprisingly a lot less death in this one-"
