Sorry for the wait! I would have updated sooner but I got sick and had a really high fever yesterday! I should be getting rest but I really wanted to update so I mustered up the strength and....

Voila! It's a chapter!

Caterpillars!

Percy Jackson II

"Let's have some fun!" The same eerie voice whispered.

"My idea of fun isn't falling out of they sky!" Percy replied.

"I'll fix your ship if you play along, demigods." The voice replied.

"How can we trust you?" Annabeth asked, raising her eyebrows.

"I swear to river Styx that I will fix your ship if you participate in my little game." The voice replied.

Everyone was left in silence, because the 'little game' could be more dangerous than the 'voice' actually said.

"Who are you?" Leo asked.

"So, do you agree to the terms?" The voice inquired, ignoring the question Leo asked.

"It's our only chance." Frank said, shifting uneasily.

"This could possibly be a game to our deaths!" Annabeth exclaimed.

"We won't agree to participate in any game unless you tell us what the game is all about." Percy said, crossing his arms.

"Of course." The voice chuckled, sounding amused, "It's a simple test to see, which of the team is the strongest. It will be a one on one battle, using any type of weapon or magic, and the battle will be over when one demigod cannot stand up any longer."

An unsettling silence filled the warm air. They were supposed to battle each other? One team, that is supposed to work together to save the world, was now being put to test on which one was stronger? That could cause so much conflict, so much battle, that the team could fall apart, and that was the last thing they needed.

"I won't do it. I won't fight any of my friends." Percy denied stubbornly. 

"You don't have a choice, Percy Jackson." The voice screeched, "You are trapped here until there is one victor left!"

"I will not betray my friends. I'd rather kill myself." Percy spat, glaring in the direction of the voice. "Who are you, anyway?"

"You must get to Athens immediately. You'll have to get out of here, first. I can see it in your eyes, you are aching to go there and get this war over with. You have no choice." The voice replied, it's voice cold and harsh.

"Answer Percy's question. Who are you?" Piper asked, pouring charmspeak into her words. 

"Sorcery does not work on me." The voice said easily. Then after a moment, it added, "If you play the game, then I will reveal who I am."

"I'm not that desperate to know who you are." Leo said, rolling his eyes.

"So, what will it be? Will you battle here with your beloved friends or try and find a way out of this immpossible death trap?"

The demigods answered her with silence, everyone in deep thought. Percy met each of his team members' eyes, and they all seemed to come to an agreement.

"But what if we get hurt?"

"I swear to river Styx that I will heal you completely if you get hurt, but if you are dead, I cannot revive you." The voice promised, irritated.
