Percy nodded and took another sip of his cup of coffee, he might just become addicted to this thing.
"Fine then," Biggy then took out a piece of paper and scribbled something down in it, "Luke came in to find a place to buy weapons and recruit people. I unfortunately couldn't help him with the latter so I sent him to a friend in Chicago, but I could help him out with the former. This," he slid the note to Percy, "is the location of the warehouse I sent him to. He is going to there for only one day, meaning after this he will be in the wind. Good luck."
Percy pocketed the note and nodded at Biggy. Annabeth and Clarisse finished their cups of coffee and the questers began to leave.
"Wait," Biggy called out stopping them, "if you go there. To the warehouse I mean, you will be exposed to Abyss. The warehouse is basically a weapons market, it will have the attention of all the members of the Abyss. If you go there, and cause a scene, which I am sure you will, this world will come to know about you. And once they do you will become a part of Abyss, something you can't undo."
Percy nodded, "I got it."
"No I don't think you do. As an informant I can't play favorites, I have to give information freely. So if anyone comes asking about you I will have to tell them all I know."
"That's ridiculous! What type of stupid law is that?!" Clarisse asked furious.
Biggy narrowed his eyes, "it's that same stupid law that allowed me to tell you all I know about Luke. So stop whining, the world's unfair, get used to it."
Clarisse was about to rebuttal before Percy held up a hand shutting her up. He turned to Biggie, "we'll be going now Biggy, thanks for the info."
Biggy nodded, "anytime."
The three questers walked out and immediately Clarisse began to complain, "that's so not fair! He made you tell everything about what you did and the moment anyone asks he is willing to blurt everything out? What the hell! I thought he was a friend Percy!"
Percy sighed, "I never said he was a friend, he is just a contact."
"And it doesn't matter what he knows Clarisse," Annabeth said, "he is clever and dangerous. Meaning next time we deal with him we have to be very careful and not give anything away."
Percy nodded, "Annabeth's right, let's just move on for now."
"But how can we?!" Clarisse asked throwing her hands about, "I mean come on! I thought he was on out side!"
"Maybe this should just be an example of what we should expect moving forward into Abyss," Annabeth said, "allies may become enemies in a split second. We are going to have be very careful."
Percy nodded, he was impressed with how quickly Annabeth was adapting to the situation, "right. I'm pissed too Clarisse, but right now there is nothing we can do. Lets just focus on getting to New York and finding this warehouse," Percy said tacking the sheet of paper Biggie gave them. On it was;
100 Neptune Ct,
Bronx, Ny
Percy's eyebrow twitched, 'this must be a joke.' Percy was very much aware of his dad's other name in Roman mythology, and this....this was just too much of a coincidence. Percy sighed, well at least he won't be forgetting this address anytime soon.
"What does it say?" Annabeth asked.
He gave it to her as he simply rubbed his temples. Annabeth read it and then began to laugh hysterically.
"What? What's so funny?" Clarisse asked. Annabeth gave her the paper and immediately the daughter of Ares started to laugh as well.
"Alright alright I get it, can we move on please?" Percy asked as he hailed them a cab.
"Why of course Percy, son of Neptune," Annabeth said giggling.
"Oh shut up Annabeth daughter of....ah..."
"Typical, everyone forgets about Minerva. Though it is understandable, those Roman's did deface Athena statue so much everyone can't even tell Minerva is Athena," Annabeth said as they got into a cab.
"Yeah," Percy replied as he thought over something before speaking up, "wait do you think there is a roman camp?"
"What do you mean?" Annabeth asked.
"Well we are Greek demigods, so do you think that there are Roman demigods out there somewhere?"
"Well if there are they are doing an amazing job hiding away," Clarisse replied, "I have never heard of any Roman demigods being found in recent camp history or any Roman monsters for that matter."
"Aren't roman monster basically ripped off versions of Greek monsters?" Percy asked.
"Ah, well for the most part yes, but there are some unique roman monster out there."
"Really? Like what?"
"Well.... let's see," Annabeth then took on her thinking pose as she began to search her head for the information she needed, "well there is the-nope that's greek. The-nope that's Nordic. The Kraken? No too vague also has roots in Greek myths. Ah ha! Lemures!"
"Those are basically ghosts," Clarisse said before thinking for a bit, "what about fauns?"
"Roman version of a Satyr," Annabeth explained, "oh I know! A Caladrius!"
"A what?" Percy asked.
"A Caladrius is a now white bird that can take away people's sickness and disperse it to the winds. It also can tell when someone is able to make a full recovery or not."
"So basically the only original thing about Roman monsters is a bird that can heal people?"
"Ah...yeah."
"Lame," Percy replied, "well I know one thing if there was a Roman camp they must be one of the most boring group of people on the face of the Earth. Probably don't even know how to swing if the history books are right about their fear of water."
Soon the cab brought them to the station again where Percy got tickets for a train going to New York in the next minutes.
"So what's the plan here?" asked Clarisse, "we going back to camp or going after Luke?"
Annabeth turned to Percy who answered, "we're going after Luke. We know where he is, we can't let a chance like this escape."
"Didn't Chiron say this was just a reconnaissance mission?" Clarisse asked.
"Yeah he did, but we now have the opportunity to get him ourselves, and I don't know about you but I want some sweet revenge."
Annabeth and Clarisse looked at each other before nodding, "alright then, let's go catch ourselves a traitor."
Percy smiled and the three then waited for their train to arrive. Slowly however Percy began to notice something strange, it was the middle of the afternoon and the train station was clearing out, fast.
"Ah guys, I think something is about to happen," Percy said as he reached into his pocket to make sure Riptide was still there.
"What do you mean?" Clarisse asked as she took out a cylinder of what looked like perfume which was actually her spear in disguise.
"Everyone is clearing out of the station, fast," Percy commented. Annabeth took out her dagger and stepped back behind Percy and Clarisse. Soon the last of the mortals were gone leaving the three questers alone in the middle of the big main platform of the station.
Percy then felt something, a chill come up his spine;
Warning! An enemy approaching from your right side!
Percy turned to his right and narrowed his eyes, "there," and sure enough he saw three people walk towards them. The one in the middle was a woman with white blond hair and cold blue eyes wearing a light blue shirt with dark jeans. Around her was an aura of cold, the same aura Percy felt, she was also the same person Percy felt in the cafe, seems they trailed them all the way here.
To the left was a girl with strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes similar to the first girl. She wore a very form fitting black dress which showed her slender but well built figure and by her side was a large metal baseball bat.
And the last person was a man who stood at 6 feet tall, half a foot taller than the girls with broad shoulders and a square jaw. He wore winter clothes with a heavy coat and a beanie, but the strangest thing about him was the fact that he was currently riding a freaking reindeer.
Annabeth and Clarisse turned out the enemy and Percy Observed them. First was the woman with white blond hair;

Saved by Kristoff at a young age, Sven the reindeer has sworn his servitude and friendship to his human saviour. He has become close friends with Anna and Elsa and is willing to disobey Kristoff if it means pleasing them. He is also very smart, for a reindeer.
He doesn't like Percy, smells to much like fish
He is hungry but is interested in a good fight.
Percy sighed read their bio's looks like trouble just found them, again. What was with him and finding trouble in Boston? Did the city hate him or something? And what did the reindeer mean when it said he smelt like fish? The fuck!
Percy spoke up, "Clarisse the one riding the reindeer is the strongest, I feel like he has some sort of connection with the stupid reindeer he is riding and will likely attack with it, you up for the challenge?"
The daughter of war smirked reading her spear, "born ready."
"Right, Annabeth the strawberry blonde girl is a hand to hand specialist, but isn't very smart, think you can trick her into hitting herself with her bat?"
Annabeth grinned, "you're on."
Percy smiled and turned to the three approaching them but spoke in a whisper, " alright then, move when I say so," he then spoke loudly, "so....Elsa, Anna and Kristoff, what can I do for you guys?"
The three in front of him stopped approaching him for a split second and in that second Percy attacked by breaking the ground with his Earthquake fist breaking the ground and sending pieces of rock everywhere.
"Now!" Percy cried out as Clarisse charged Kristoff ,who managed to avoid the destroyed ground only to be trapped on one side of the station away from the others. Annabeth ran to Anna who was recovering from almost being hit by a rock leaving Elsa to face off against Percy.
"How did you know who we are?" Elsa asked with narrowed eyes in a cold tone.
"Didn't you know? I have the powers of an informant," Percy said reading Riptide, "and you my Snow Queen are in way over your head."
Elsa didn't smile but instead raised a hand up gathering ice around the palm of her hand, "we shall see."
Elsa sent a blast of ice out of her hand that took the form of sharp ice shards. Percy dodged them all and with a snap of his finger sent a fireball flying right at Elsa's face. The so called Snow Queen brought up a ice shield just in time while simultaneously sending several blast of icy wind at Percy.
The son of Poseidon dodged all of the strikes and charged at the woman, something told him she didn't have much experience with close quarter combat. Percy was proven right when instead of fighting him head on Elsa jumped back while sending blasts of ice at him.
Percy once again danced through the ice beams was soon stood a few feet in front of Elsa with his trademark grin on his face, "what's the matter hot stuff? Ran out of juice?"
Elsa was panting as she looked at Percy with a sneer, "oh I have not even begun yet." Just then a shadow was cast around the room covering Percy from head to toe. The son of Poseidon turned around and gulped only to find a huge monster made out of ice and snow with big heavy limbs and sharp teeth and claws.
"You didn't think I was just wasting all that ice I threw did you?" Elsa as a hint of a smile appeared on her face, "Percy Jackson meet Snowball, he likes chocolate and ripping trees out of the ground with his bare hands."
Percy Elsa but on his face was not fear like she hoped but confusion, "can he even taste chocolate? And what type of stupid ass name if Snowball?"
Snowball,

A monster created through the powers of Elsa it is not very smart but can obey simple orders and can also be controlled like a puppet.
Kill to get— 7,000 Exp
Elsa groaned, "I named him when I was twelve alright? Now shut up," she said just as Snowball smashed the spot Percy was standing in a few moments ago.
Percy looked at the things HP;
Snowball HP: 20,000/20,000
'Easy enough,' Percy commented as he summoned two fireballs sending both right at Snowball's face. The frost monster put a hand up and blocked the fireballs as a little of the ice in it's hand started to melt.
Percy sighed, this was going to be a long battle.
Annabeth hated this girl, she really wanted to kill Percy for even suggesting fighting her. Right now the daughter of wisdom was running as fast as she could away from the crazy strawberry blonde swinging the metal baseball bat.
