Neil: If you ever wanted to read an overly happy fan- fic writer's story, then you're reading what she's typing.
Qternalanimator: Opens cupboard and bonks Neil on the head What would you know? You're just in my cupboard!
Neil: My hair! My poor golden locks of honey blonde hair!
Qternalanimator: Gets out the tape and plasters his mouth shut and closes the cupboard Thank you so much for my fantastic reviews! You people seriously made my day! I'll make a special mention to my first reviewers! Atlanta's sister, skittles, Loretta, caity_party_princess and greektitan!
Neil: mumbles and kicks cupboard door open, rips off tape I have lines and I will say them!
Qternalanimator: All right! Who put you in my cupboard in anyway? Where'd Atlanta go? Please leave my cupboard... Somebody come take Neil away! He broke my cupboard!
Neil: I put myself in your cupboard to rescue Atlanta; I find it cozy in here so I don't think I'll leave! Anyway, Qternalanimator does not own me or anything Class of the Titans related. She does however does own the Infinidad Amazonas, they belong to her... It figures, they are creepy and she is creepy.
Qternalanimator: Tapes door closed with Neil inside I hate disclaimers! But what must be done must be done! And while Neil's now quiet let's continue!

Theresa gasped and fell into Jay's arms as she saw what Herry was showing them via the PMR. Her vision was coming true and they might be too late.
"Theresa, what is going to happen to Herry?" Jay asked as he held her tightly, making sure to keep an eye on Herry as he showed them everything with the PMR.
Theresa shuddered and turned and hugged Jay: "He's, his truck is going to explode... with him in it..."
"What?" Odie shouted and then turned to his PMR, "Herry! Get out of there! Now!"
Herry's face was worried on the screen, he shook his head: "I can't take all of those on! Why? What is going to happen?" Suddenly it looked like Herry was being shaken around vigorously and then the PMR slipped out of his grip and you got an upside down view of Herry.
"Herry? Speak to me buddy?" Atlanta said, her voice quivering.
Theresa watched what was happening on Jay's PMR, her face went sallow and she spoke quietly: "In a few moments... the prophecy will become null and void ... Herry is going to pass away..."
"We have to get there!" Archie said in earnest and then looked at his PMR, "Hang tight Herry! Herry! We are coming!"
Neil looked at Archie: "How? Hermes can't conjure portals fast enough and you are too slow!"
Atlanta looked at her cast and then had an adamant expression on her face: "Chiron! Artemis! Someone!"
Chiron trotted briskly out of his solarium and looked at Atlanta: "You called?"
Atlanta nodded and pointed to her cast: "I know it should be on for two more day but Herry is in trouble and I'm the only one who can get there fast enough so take this off now! Or Cronos wins!"
Jay looked and Atlanta and saw how adamantly she looked at Chiron and then he nodded: "She's right, please Chiron."
Chiron frowned and then it laid heavy on his conscience that if he didn't do as Atlanta said, he might unwittingly help Cronos win. He beckoned to her and the both dashed to his solarium.
Almost instantly, Atlanta reappeared, kitted out with her Bolas, the electric crossbow and the EMR gun: "You guys get a portal..."
"You are not going alone!" Archie said and refused to let her pass, "I'm coming with you!"
Atlanta's eyes widened: "Fine, you better hurry then! I'm not waiting!" And with that, Archie and Atlanta burst out of the school in a rush of speed.
Odie was the first to react afterwards; he spun about to go find Hermes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Herry was stunned; he had gotten a hit to the head and could see the Infinidad Amazonas attempt to open his truck up. Thanks to Hephestus, they weren't able to smash his windows so they were having a problem.
"The belt! The belt! Give us Hippolyte's belt! Hercules and you shall pay!" chanted the rasping voices as they attempted to kick out the windows.
Herry noticed the belt above him so he dropped his hand down and picked it up: "Dream on you creeps..."
Outside one of the women broke a branch off a nearby tree and then laid it by the large monsters foot, like a match, the hoof sparked the branch and it erupted in an orange flame that crackled and waited impatiently to be set loose.
Herry smelt the smoke and he grabbed the PMR off his roof: "Guys! Help me!"
The Amazon began to lower the flame to the truck but then she was flung back and the flaming torch was extinguished. All the Amazons looked up to see a red head aiming a large gun and frowning. Not far behind, a boy with purple hair approached.
"Leave him alone!" Atlanta ordered firmly, trying to stop her voice quivering in fear.
Archie stood close to Atlanta and pulled his Hephestus whip out, they looked at both of the teens and turned to the fallen Amazon.
There seemed to be a distinct leader with feathers jutting out of her hair, she stepped forward and sniffed the air like an animal then leered: "Long live Atlanta, after she's dead... Do you really want to leave that fast girl?"
Atlanta's heart faltered and she lowered the EMR gun a bit, Archie saw this and lifted it up, he looked at her full on in the eyes: "You aren't going anywhere Atlanta! Understand? I'm here..."
Atlanta saw a fire in Archie's eyes that became contagious, her cheeks burnt from it and she nodded, she turned back to the Infinidad Amazonas and shouted: "Bring it! I'm not going anywhere! Especially with you!"
Beside Archie and Atlanta opened a blue portal and the rest of the Titans piled out, armed and fearing that their two friends didn't make it in time to save Herry.
Archie grinned: "Finally! We've got a big problem and Odie, get Herry out the truck!"
Jay nodded and unsheathed his Xiphos blade, as he looked at the women, he also shuddered in disgust and blocked his view. Neil saw them and shrieked, he held the stunt baton at arm length and waved it about to make sure none of them came near him.
The leader spoke to the rest and everyone just remained standing.
"Why aren't they attacking?" Theresa asked and scanned the scene.
Atlanta's mind was running and then she gasped: "They don't have permission!"
"Perfect!" Neil said and then stepped forward and jabbed one of them and they fell to the ground, "Hah! I can do this all the time!"
"Not so fast..."
"No!" Jay said and spun around to see Cronos appear on the monster and it immediately began to get unruly and scrape at the ground creating sparks.
Cronos tutted and nodded: "Jay... Jay... Jay... Could I pass up an occasion like this?"
"Cronos... shall we?" came the voice of the leader as she faced him and held her ivory dagger at shoulder length.
Cronos rolled his eyes and nodded: "Be my guest Penthesileia, attack these foolish children! But mind the creature, he's hungry..."
"Well, we know her name now... maybe she's the daughter of Penthesileia who Achilles killed..." Jay said as he charged forward to the truck to guard Harry and Odie, who was trying to pull him out.
Archie blinked: "Achilles killed the last one? Oh great, wonderful news!"
A group of Amazons surrounded Archie and they were wielding spears, they separately took turns and when they saw he was no weakling they began to attack him all at once.
Neil was running from the women waving his stunt baton, he then noticed the creature charging his way. He paused and looked at both sides. He frowned and then darted the other way to find safety by Jay.
Theresa and Atlanta had found it best to fight together; they stood back to back and went head to head with countless fighters. Atlanta had lost count of all the ammo she had used in the gun but just kept shooting. Theresa was a blur of kicks and num chucks, her eyes constantly scanning what was going on.
Odie managed to get Herry out, Herry sat shielded by the car and rubbed his head: "Thanks Odie, I was almost a goner."
Odie shrugged and peered through at what was happening: "They need help dude."
"I know, take this and run. I mean it, they can't get this!" Herry said, handing the belt to Odie. Odie looked at it and nodded, he wasted no time and dashed off back to the Brownstone. Herry stood up and grabbed the rope in his truck, he stepped around the truck and cleared his throat: "Hey... here I am!" All the Amazons stopped and some filtered out of their fights to attack him.
Cronos shook his head and muttered some words in the ears of the beast, it's eyes clouded over and it slammed its hoof on the ground. The earth reverberated and everyone fell to the ground, Penthesileia was the only one standing. She began to advance slowly and surely towards Atlanta, Atlanta was busy reloading her gun and crossbow. It was taking her some time because she was shaking so much.
Archie sat up and saw this, he spotted that his whip was to far to reach and the only other thing he could do was attack her. He leapt up and jumped on Penthesileia's back: "Atlanta! Move out the way!"
Atlanta turned to see Archie on Penthesileia's back: "Archie! Get off her! She'll kill you!"
Penthesileia clutched her fingers into Archie and sharp pain ran up his spine, Herry got up and managed to grasp hold of the Amazonian leader. This stunned her and she let go of Archie, Archie slid down off her back and looked at his back: "Darn it! She tore through my jacket!"
Atlanta got up and handed him his whip, she then punched him: "Don't ever do something like that!"
Archie opened his mouth in pain and looked at Atlanta in confusion: "I was saving you!"
Atlanta huffed and didn't know what to say, she was aiming her weapons and then noticed how all the fighting had stopped cause Herry had Penthesileia. Penthesileia was writhing about and kicking Herry, who was bravely taking it all.
"If you don't leave now!" rang Jay's voice as he ushered Theresa along behind him to protect her, "We will kill Penthesileia."
Neil suddenly appeared from behind the truck, standing proudly and nodded: "Definitely... you ugly brutes! Haven't you heard of facials?"
Cronos chuckled and then nodded at the confused warriors, like a pack of dominoes falling down. They all seemed to vanish like a wisp of air. Herry realized he was standing there holding nothing in his hands, to make sure that Penthesileia was truly gone he clasped his hands together.
"They've gone!" Archie said in surprise as he spun around and then looked at Cronos.
Cronos' scythes formed in his hands and he nodded: "Just shows you how you truly don't understand what a force they are Archie... you see, you can't catch them."
"Shut up Cronos!" Atlanta snapped as she began to spin her bolas and step forward.
Cronos raised his eyebrow and shook his head: "I gave you a chance Atlanta, a chance to live but you took it for granted... now, enjoy my beast!" Cronos levitated into the air and the creature charged forward, it lowered its head and made its way to Herry.
"Herry grab it!" Jay ordered as he flung his Xiphos at it and it pierced through the flesh of the beast. Herry nodded and stood ready to grab the beast, he tried to grasp the horns but from high up one couldn't see the miniature spikes on the horns. They pierced Herry's hand and he pulled back in pain.
Atlanta swung her Bolas and managed to lock two of its legs together. This had rendered it motionless; Archie leapt high into the air and wrapped his Hephestus around one set of horns, the head that was being attacked jerked about and Archie stood on the nape of the neck slowly pulling off the horns, they dropped to the floor and like the Infinidad Amazonas, they vanished.
Theresa busied herself by attacking the other heads and rendering them blind. Neil ran underneath the buck and after posing for the imaginary audience he always posed her, he lifted his baton into the air: "Don't mess with the Neil!" He turned up the power and shocked it right in the belly. The beast roared irately and stomped its one free hoof on the ground it such an impact that Neil got shocked himself, he remained there... stunned and suddenly having visions of his hair being singed off.
Herry watched this and dashed under the beast and grabbed Neil: "You want to get yourself killed?"
Herry safely put Neil aside and then chucked one side of the rope to Atlanta, Atlanta grabbed it and nodded, she leapt into a great dash around the beast, avoiding the sparks of the hooves and every other dangerous part of it. She wound the rope around the other two legs and then handed her end to Herry to tie together.
Jay pulled his Xiphos out of its side and then took a deep breath: "Time for our final attacks... That includes you too Neil!"
"Sure, sure, make Neil ugly... it's bad enough I'm handsomer than all of you... But fine, I'll attack!" Neil muttered and charged his baton.
"Ready?" Theresa asked everyone.
Archie jumped off the creature and landed by Atlanta, who was aiming her crossbow: "Go!"
Jay ran around the front and jabbed the beast in the ribs, he did it in such a sweeping motion that it had a delayed reaction to the pain it felt later. Herry grabbed the branch that was alight earlier and swung it around to hit the centre head of the beast. The head bowed and Archie sprung to action, he wrapped his whip around the head and began to tug at the head. Theresa was still on the back of the creature and was whacking the sides of it with her num chucks.
Neil stood on his toes and then with a shriek he once again ran under the beast and shocked the creature for one last time, with his eyes shut though because that was how Neil was.
Atlanta shot an arrow in the area of where she thought its heart would be situated, she was taking this as a pure guess cause this wasn't exactly a deer but it was one too. She then notices that Archie was having trouble cutting the head off so she went behind him and grabbed hold of the whip over his hands. Archie almost had a heart attack but he had to focus: "On three we pull?"
Atlanta nodded: "One... two... three!" Archie and Atlanta's combined strength made the whip pull through the head with ease and as the head dropped off and disappeared in a puff of smoke, the rest of the body did the same. Archie and Atlanta toppled backwards and Archie landed on top of Atlanta.
Cronos watched the spectacle and realized how much stronger the Titans were, Jay ran forward and shouted to Cronos: "Come down and face us you coward!"
Cronos looked down at Jay and shook his head: "Sorry Jay... not today, I've tired you out... it'd be an easy battle... for me to win!"
With that, the God of Time disappeared like most of his creations, leaving the Titans alone.
Jay rammed his Xiphos into the earth and kicked it: "The coward!"
Theresa sat down next to Jay and looked up at him: "We're tired Jay, he would have slaughtered us! Just sit down!"
Jay looked down at Theresa and gave in, he dropped to the floor next to her and sighed: "I guess you were right... I'm beat..." Jay realized this as he felt a feeling of weakness rush over him.
Theresa chuckled and looked at him coyly, she pulled her fringe behind her ear and looked up: "I'm glad I was right... and that you protected me... thank you..."
Jay noticed Theresa's hand hovering above his so he quickly looked away and watched Herry turning his truck the right way. He felt the warmth of her fingers slowly interlock with his and then he held her hand tight... not letting go.
Atlanta was finally taking a look at her leg out of the cast, she bent her knee and then lie her leg out flat again. Archie was watching this and shook his head: "To me, I think Neil is rubbing off on you... first you'll admire your leg then your lower body, then your upper body and then your beautiful face!" Archie taunted and raised his eyebrows.
Atlanta pouted and then grabbed hold of his legs to pull him to the floor next to her: "Take that back! I'm nothing like Neil!"
Neil was simpering over his face when he popped his head up from his mirror: "Di I hear my name?"
Archie and Atlanta were tussling with each other, they both turned to Neil: "No!"
Herry was on his PMR to see if Odie was all right, Odie was on the screen and at the sight of Herry he relaxed.
Herry looked at Odie seriously: "Are you safe... and have you still got the belt?"
Odie nodded and showed Herry the belt: "I'm at the Brownstone with Athena and I'm safe, how are you all?"
"My truck is written off! Hephestus will need to fix it up again!" Herry said downheartedly as he showed how banged up it was. Jay and Theresa walked up to Herry to look at the truck.
"Your lucky you were in there, Herry," came Odie's voice from the PMR.
Jay nodded: "It was almost your final resting place though..."
Herry shrugged and smiled: "That's why I'm glad that you guys came! You always have my back!"
Theresa was running her fingers along the side of the truck; it was getting dark and harder to see. Theresa felt a peculiar dent and frowned, she ran her hand along the dent and her eyes grew wide as she realized the pattern she was tracing over meant one thing... Herry had been marked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Qternalanimator: I got the name Penthesileia out of a Greek Mythology book from my library, she will not be linked to the real Penthesileia, I just liked the name. For those of you who have watched Pirates of The Caribbean 2... I see Penthesileia looking like the Witch Doctor that gives Jack Sparrow the sand... she'll have the funny accent too, all the Infinidad Amazonas will actually. Just imagine them being way more ugly that even Jay gets creeped out.
Neil: Herry has been marked too, what will Hercules have to say about that? Are things finally going to happen with Theresa and Jay? Am I really rubbing off on Atlanta, it'd probably be best if I did rub off on her too... How strong are those Amazonas really? Have we really seen their true power? Oh the drama...
Qternalanimator: crying behind the cupboard door at how much of a pain Neil is Please! Someone take him away! Put someone new in my cupboard! Bring Archie back!
Neil: Now! Calm down! You'll forget to ask the readers to R&R! Which they must! I'll give them my autograph!

"We have to get there!" Archie said in earnest and then looked at his PMR, "Hang tight Herry! Herry! We are coming!"
Neil looked at Archie: "How? Hermes can't conjure portals fast enough and you are too slow!"
Atlanta looked at her cast and then had an adamant expression on her face: "Chiron! Artemis! Someone!"
Chiron trotted briskly out of his solarium and looked at Atlanta: "You called?"
Atlanta nodded and pointed to her cast: "I know it should be on for two more day but Herry is in trouble and I'm the only one who can get there fast enough so take this off now! Or Cronos wins!"
Jay looked and Atlanta and saw how adamantly she looked at Chiron and then he nodded: "She's right, please Chiron."

Cronos watched the spectacle and realized how much stronger the Titans were, Jay ran forward and shouted to Cronos: "Come down and face us you coward!"
Cronos looked down at Jay and shook his head: "Sorry Jay... not today, I've tired you out... it'd be an easy battle... for me to win!"
With that, the God of Time disappeared like most of his creations, leaving the Titans alone.
Jay rammed his Xiphos into the earth and kicked it: "The coward!"
Theresa sat down next to Jay and looked up at him: "We're tired Jay, he would have slaughtered us! Just sit down!"
Jay looked down at Theresa and gave in, he dropped to the floor next to her and sighed: "I guess you were right... I'm beat..." Jay realized this as he felt a feeling of weakness rush over him.
Theresa chuckled and looked at him coyly, she pulled her fringe behind her ear and looked up: "I'm glad I was right... and that you protected me... thank you..."
Jay noticed Theresa's hand hovering above his so he quickly looked away and watched Herry turning his truck the right way. He felt the warmth of her fingers slowly interlock with his and then he held her hand tight... not letting go.
Atlanta was finally taking a look at her leg out of the cast, she bent her knee and then lie her leg out flat again. Archie was watching this and shook his head: "To me, I think Neil is rubbing off on you... first you'll admire your leg then your lower body, then your upper body and then your beautiful face!" Archie taunted and raised his eyebrows.
Atlanta pouted and then grabbed hold of his legs to pull him to the floor next to her: "Take that back! I'm nothing like Neil!"
Neil was simpering over his face when he popped his head up from his mirror: "Di I hear my name?"
Archie and Atlanta were tussling with each other, they both turned to Neil: "No!"
Herry was on his PMR to see if Odie was all right, Odie was on the screen and at the sight of Herry he relaxed.
Herry looked at Odie seriously: "Are you safe... and have you still got the belt?"
Odie nodded and showed Herry the belt: "I'm at the Brownstone with Athena and I'm safe, how are you all?"
"My truck is written off! Hephestus will need to fix it up again!" Herry said downheartedly as he showed how banged up it was. Jay and Theresa walked up to Herry to look at the truck.
"Your lucky you were in there, Herry," came Odie's voice from the PMR.
Jay nodded: "It was almost your final resting place though..."
Herry shrugged and smiled: "That's why I'm glad that you guys came! You always have my back!"
Theresa was running her fingers along the side of the truck; it was getting dark and harder to see. Theresa felt a peculiar dent and frowned, she ran her hand along the dent and her eyes grew wide as she realized the pattern she was tracing over meant one thing... Herry had been marked.

Qternalanimator: I got the name Penthesileia out of a Greek Mythology book from my library, she will not be linked to the real Penthesileia, I just liked the name. For those of you who have watched Pirates of The Caribbean 2... I see Penthesileia looking like the Witch Doctor that gives Jack Sparrow the sand... she'll have the funny accent too, all the Infinidad Amazonas will actually. Just imagine them being way more ugly that even Jay gets creeped out.
Neil: Herry has been marked too, what will Hercules have to say about that? Are things finally going to happen with Theresa and Jay? Am I really rubbing off on Atlanta, it'd probably be best if I did rub off on her too... How strong are those Amazonas really? Have we really seen their true power? Oh the drama...
