the trio walked along an Ohio backroad near the Kentucky line and cut down the occasional monster Percy along the way stopped using his earbuds and made it so the whole trio could hear the music as they travelled down the road 

as they walked a group of hellhounds attacked and one caught Luke by surprise Percy reacted in an instant beheading the beast with a single slash of wrath Luke looked at Percy with a look for a second before standing back up and began to fight against the monstrous dogs that seemingly didn't stop

Luke: you know I blame you for there being this many Percy!

Percy: that's fair.

Clarisse: would you to shut up and fight before you get us killed 

the trio exterminated the hell hounds and began to walk again before a woman in an old truck pulled over and motioned for the three to climb up into the bed and a raven landed on Percy shoulder with a note attached Percy read the note and showed it to Luke and Clarisse before knocking on the back window of the truck 

Percy: if you could just take us to the nearest train station we would be much appreciated

the woman nodded and started the truck as the trio got comfortable in the back of the truck for the somewhat long journey in the back of a pickup truck on a dirt road what could go wrong. 

a lot apparently thought Percy as he stood back to back with Luke the truck having overturned and Clarisse leaned the unconscious woman against the hood of the truck as a hoard of Monsters surrounded them

Luke: Percy I swear on the River Styx that if we get out of this alive I'll be loyal to you and your father!

Percy: that's great and all but just what do we have?

Clarisse: three cyclops, several hellhounds, and I think I just saw a Zombie 

Percy: great a draug  

Percy charged the group with his shield activated and was soon covered in the gold dust of a monster, Luke and Clarisse following his example began to slaughter the monsters but were pushed back against the truck 

Luke: shit were done for

Percy: come on the Valkyries are watching us don't stand down now Luke

with newfound strength Luke cut down one of the cyclops and began to stab it repeatedly in the neck until it died but was hit by a hell hound before Percy slayed the beast and dragged him back to the truck. prepared for their final breaths the trio raised their weapons before the whinny of a horse was heard and thunderous hoofbeats approached and a white horse with eight legs reared back and struck down several hellhounds.

the trio began to fight and soon the monsters had been defeated and the horse approached Percy while Luke fainted from a loss of blood, Percy looked between his friend and  the horse before throwing Luke onto Sleipnir's back before he and Clarisse climbed onto the horse

Percy: take Us to my father

the horse started to run and before Percy could blink the world around him became a blur and he soon found himself back in Valhalla where a man in a green shirt took Luke from the horse and his father approached

Odin: Percy, I see you found Sleipnir.

Percy: more like he found us

Odin: I understand, you have three days to enjoy yourselves here in Valhalla as long as you wear these you should be safe from death or dismemberment

the one eyed god handed Percy and Clarisse a lanyard with their photo on it and Percy was handed a third one for Luke 

Odin: now I believe your friend has awoken

the duo were escorted to a medical bay where Luke laid on a hospital bed with an IV attached to his arm and several girls stood near him and he flirted with them 

Percy: you know he's not dead right

the girls looked at Luke with distaste and walked away while Percy tossed Luke the ID  

Percy: we've got three days to relax here in Valhalla before we go back to camp

Luke: you know I've got a promise to keep right, I swear my loyalty to you Percy

Clarisse: What's that all about Castellan?

Percy looked at Luke and he flashed a golden aura and his eyes seemed to visibly age for a second before he gave Percy an apologetic look, Clarisse confused by the event cleared her throat and looked at the two boys

Clarisse: my father will probably try to kill me for this but I wouldn't be alive if it weren't for you Jackson id be hellhound chow by now so I too swear loyalty

the same thing that happened to Luke happened to Clarisse before she embraced him in a hug and apologized repeatedly before the two noticed Luke's stares of confusion 

Percy: Clarisse can you please fill Luke in on what Happened after he died, I don't want to relive it. 

Percy walked out of the infirmary and towards the gift shop he had seen signs for buying himself a couple of the t-shirts that he saw people wearing and a necklace of a shield with two axes behind it and the words Hail Odin in written runes

Percy left the gift shop with his shirts and necklace as well as a water bottle and a backpack and met with his friends at their temporary room





so I admit it might have been a little rushed with Clarisse joining Percy id like to hear your thoughts on that though and to avoid any confusion during the ten days it took Arthur Annabeth and Grover to find the master bolt the results of his quest ill reveal in the next chapter it took Percy, Luke, and Clarisse nine days including the three days that Odin gave them to relax making it so that they arrive at camp at relatively the same time
