When we were on solid ground again, we look around and see lots of trees. "Where are we this time?" Pietro asked.

"Somewhere in the woods of Utah." I told them. They just nod and look around. I walked up ahead of the others when I trip on a tree root. As I fall, I see Tony run over towards me. At the last minute he caught me but then he tripped and landed on top of me. His lips were a few centimeters away from mine. I looked into his coffee brown eyes and he looked into my probably silver or gold eyes. I blush and turn my head.

He helps me up and said, "your eyes are a mix of beautiful silver and gold."

"Thanks." I said while blushing.

"Why do your eyes change color?" he asked slightly nevis.

"When I was blessed by my patrons my eyes changed color with my emotions. My original eye color is black with white specks." I told him.

"What are the white specks from?" he asked curiously.

"I don't know, I asked my dad why I have them but he never answers when I ask. So I stopped asking." I told him. It was getting hot so I took off my leather jacket but that was a bad idea because my shirt ride up my stomach and Tony saw the scars and bruises.

"What are those from?" Tony asked. On the outside I look calm but on the inside i'm freaking out.

"Its from my adoptive father." I told him quietly.

He hugs me and I said, "We should look for the weapon." he nods.

I close my eyes and focus on the aura of the weapon. It's a little stronger then Hera's but not much. Wanda and Pietro walk over to us as I look for the location of the weapon. The aura was very familiar so it's one of my patrons weapon. I start to walk towards the aura but the others stay behind scenes they know I will tell them to stop. I walk a good half mile before I stop. I saw two gods guarding the weapon. One had a horn on one side of his head but the other was cut off and white hair. He wearing a white toga and water blue eyes. The horn gave away who he is, Achelous. The other had black hair, forest green eyes, and white toga. As I look closer I realize that he is Eubouleus. I quickly walk back to the others and say, "Tony you get the god with one horn his name is Achelous a potamoi son of Oceanus and Tethys. Wanda and Pietro you got the black haired one. His name is Eubouleus the god of secret swine son of Demeter and Karmanor. I will get the weapon." They nod. When we are close enough to the gods the others start to attack so I ran over to the weapon. It was Demeter's scythe. It was made out of imperial gold and olympian gold. I grab it and turn to the others and see that Eubouleus was gone but not Achelous. I quickly put the scythe in the backpack and pull out fire and throw it at him. It hits him in the heart and he explodes into golden dust.

The others walk over to me and Tony says, "let's stop here for tonight. Moon can't keep shadow traveling us places and she needs sleep." he told the others.

I tried to protest, "We only have four days left before we have to return the weapons! If we don't get them there on time they will start war on my dad!" They didn't look convinced.

"Moon you need to rest. If you don't then you can't get us to olympius in time." Wanda said. So I gave up.

"Who is going to grued first?" I ask.

"Wanda can for half of the night then I can you need more sleep than us." Pietro said. So we got ready to sleep. Wanda started a fire and Pietro sleeped by it. Tony laid down a few feet away from the fire. So I went and laid next to him. We started talking about random stuff until I fell into a dreamless sleep. But I couldn't shake the feeling that someone was watching me.
