Quest
Rose: ''Arrives with Damian via Shadow Travel, wearing cream dress, navy blue blazer, and cream suede pumps. She carries her Balenciaga tote in one hand, with Gucci inside. Her other hand is holding Damian's.'' Ah, remind me next time that I hate shadow travel.

Damian: He chuckles, Will do, M'Lady. He looks at her I must say, those shoes suit you.

Elenah: She walks up to Rose and Damian. Hello. I'm Elenah Blacksmith...I don't know if you know me...anyways, I'm the Lieutenant Counsellor of Demeter's Cabin. So, what's the plan?

Rue: Jumps down from the tree she was resting in. Plan is that we wait for the last member before leavin, duh. ''Pushes some hair out of her eyes. ''Names Rue Moore, daughter of Eros.

Zale: walks back from the path to town Well i guess i'm here, so are we shadow travelling to China the way you two entered or something?

Rue: ''Rolls her eyes like Zale is an idiot. ''Okay two things. Firstly, who the hell are you? Secondly, unless the shadow travelling person is super strong, we will need a stop on the way to China so shadow travelling person can get energyy.

Zale: I am the final member on this quest, Zale, son of Hermes and second, yeah, forgot about that, so do you think we could hire a pack of hellhounds to shadow travel us there? I heard that a few campers had some. But before we go, shouldn't we discuss what we need to do once were there?

Rue: ''Gapes at him, now sure he is an idiot. ''You can't just "hire a pack of hellhounds". You realize there is only a select few hellhounds trained, and none in our reach? Idiots! ''Brushes some hair out of her eyes angrily. ''And "Zale, son of Hermes" discussing will not help if some people like you seem to have no idea why we're going to China anyway!

Damian: Reluctantly he lets go of Rose's hand and walks over to Rue and Zale, Calm down, both of you. We're going by plane.

Zale: oh, sorry, didn't know, so when do we go?

Rue:'' Ignores Zale and nods to Damian. ''And you are, plane boy?

Damian: He chuckles, Damianos, son of Thanatos.

Rue: ''Rolls her eyes. ''And your girlfriend over there?

Damian: Rose, Aphrodite

Rue: ''Smirks. ''Cool, I guess. And Elenah is obviously Demeter. Okay, so know everyone, tick. Figure out who are the bitches here, tick with Zale. Figure out the plan. No tick. So discuss time, sweet.

Zale: Heeeyyyy...

Damian: He calls out, Rose? Could you please come over here?

Rue: ''Mutters and rolls her eyes. ''Death boy and lover girl, best match in history, great sappy love in this quest. Looks away from Damian and Rose, looking back at the cabins from their location by the tree.

Elenah: She sighs Please, guys, there's no need to argue! So, we're taking a plane from here then...?

Rose: Clicks off her phone and taps impatiently with her shoes when a car went in from a corner. The car's gonna take us to the airport. Get in, guys.

''The questors get in the car and soon they reach the airport. Without no real trouble they board the plane, and hours later, they arrive in Guangzhou Airport.''

Damian: He looks around, out of pure habit trying to find all possible exits So, M'Lady, you have any plans for what we should do now?

Rose: Damian, it's Rose. Maybe we should check out the Canton Tower, it's the tallest building in China. What do you say, guys?

Elenah: Well, never been to China before...but, I trust you. I say yes.

Damian: Sure thing ''Rose. *He says 'Rose' in the exact same tone as he said M'Lady*''

Rue: ''Rolls her eyes. ''China equals Chinese people and that equals Chinese language, right? Any of you speak Chinese?

Zale: Knew that being in Asia and learning Chinese in school for almost all my life would help, but thankfully, most locals can speak English, but its nicer to speak Chinese to them.

Rose: I can charmspeak in Chinese and I look Chinese enough I can easily pass for one. Come on, we're taking a cab.

''They quickly get into two cabs. Rose and Damian in the first, while Rue, Elenah, and Zale in the second. After an hour, they reach the Canton Tower.''

Rose: Here we are, should we go to the observation deck?

Rue: ''Rolls her eyes once again, knowing she should seriously stop. ''No, observation desk will probably wonder why one girl dressed as a model, a freaky death-like kid, a flower power girl, an idiot and a major ADHD person are together looking for anything suspcious. The only thing suspicious would be us. In my opinion, we should use silence and skills to sneak up.

Rose: Frowns at Rue. I'm gonna take that as a compliment. But who are we going to sneak up on?

Rue: ''Grins and pulls out a flyer from her pocket. ''Nicked it from some old guy, eh we have better use for it. Shows them the picture.



Y'see, I think ahead, if we "borrow in intentions of not returning" some keys, or ropes. We can either climb up there to the top, climb the Staff Only Stairs showing all extra areas, or even steal some crane and get up from there. Looks around at the yellow cranes.

Damian: He smirks I like your way of thinking. Should I, collect, a crane? He smiles mischievously, though it somehow looks wrong with his eyes flashing dangerously.

Rue:  ''Pouts. ''How bout we mix ideas together. We get a crane, then as high as the crane goes we go, then we hop out and scale the rest of the way up with a few ropes for safety.

Rose: Climb?! Collect a crane?! Asks in disbelief. And how is going by lift is not easier?

Rue: ''Rolls her eyes. ''All of us, plus other tourists which is ALOT in China, will not fit in a lift. It could take ages and monsters could find us! ''Looks curious. ''By the way, I have to ask, what's in your bag..Its moving....

Damian: He chuckles It's just Gucci, her chihuaha

Rue: ''Widens her eyes. ''Oh gods, awesome! Always wanted a chihuahua as a kid, couldn't seem to find any in Alaska....

Damian: Well, anyway, how about we knock out a person who works here, steal his key and use the service lift?

Rue: ''Nods. ''That would work, no people in there and we can knock someone out, awesome! So, um, looks around a bit lost in the foreign place, wheres the service lift?

Rose: Hey, there'll be surveillance camera as well. I still don't understand why we can't be a well-mannered tourists and take the passenger elevators, observe the decks, and get into their security room if necessary.

Rue: ''Sighs, finally giving in. Okay but if I punch some random person annoying me, it's not mah fault....So um looks around ''you gonna lead the way, Rose?

Rose: Smiles sarcastically. Of course it's not your fault to be unable to control your emotion, Rue. Come on, this way.

After a while, they reached the observation deck.

Rose: Ain't this chilly?

Rue: ''Glares at Rose, still slightly angry at her earlier comment so she ignores her and picks up a free map, and starts looking over it. ''So, we wanna go straight to the top or take stops or what?

Zale: I think we should go to the top, were not tourists here, were on a mission.

Elenah: After being silent for so long, Elenah deciedes to speak up. But we need to act like tourists, other wise we could get into trouble...

Rue: ''Nods. ''But also, we need to purchase binoculars or whatever they call 'em here in China. Cause no offence, but none of your eyes can be THAT good.

Damian: He pulls out a pair of somewhat old binoculars, Would these do? They're a bit old, I know, but they work just fine.

Rue: ''Looks around in her bag, and grabs out a pair of sunglasses and a phone. ''Eh, time to blend in. And yeah, they'll do. So, we just do stuff, that tourists do. Key the binoculars and phone, plus the sunglasses are just so cute I couldn't resist. Grins.

Rose: Smiles approvingly. Gucci, isn't it? Turns to Damian. See something?

''Suddenly some of the clouds part and a massive dark shape descends upon the tower, circles around it for a moment as if searching for something, and then shoots off towards what looks like a run-down district of the city. Despite what just happened, the mortals around them appear unphased and apparently didn't notice a thing.''

Rue: Holy Hades in underpants! If thats a normal cloud which just appeared, I'm a bird. ''Looks at the run-down district part of the city. ''My vote is we follow it.

Rose: We follow it. Rue, check on the map, which district the cloud's heading.

They quickly descends via elevators and soon they're back in front of the Canton Tower, though appear unsure where to head next.

Rue: ''Looks over the map. ''Left, I think. I guess we'll have to take the chance. And yeah Rose, Gucci all the way.

Elenah: Looks at the map Yeah, let's head left!

The group head towards the run down district, following the dark clouds/shapes.

Zale: Well, we cant just follow it all day, we need to somehow capture it or something.

Rue: ''Rolls her eyes, muttering 'idiot'. ''You can't capture a cloud, if it is a cloud. ''Presses the 'G' in Gucci on the side of her glasses, and then takes them off. ''These glasses should be working like pie, like binoculars. 'Cept it's moving to fast, can't keep my eyes on 'em.

Zale: So are we waiting to see where it lands or what.

Rose: Looks at Zale irritably. I'm not sure if you understand the situation completely, but it's not unlikely to land! The best we can do is find something odd, out of place, something weird near the cloud. Something like...

''A deep growl comes from behind them, revealing 4 hellhounds staring at them, hungry. However, people don't seem to notice the hellhounds, and keep carry on with their own business.''

Rose: Damn it. Glances at Damian and readies her sword. Damian and I will each take one. Rue, Elenah, Hesitates for a moment. Keep Zale alive.

Zale: Crud, draws sword Distract them, I think that i might have a plan. Slowly backs away and walks into nearby building, once out of the hellhounds sight, begins to run up the stairs, three at a time.

Damian: Pulls out his whip and laughs like a madman, shouting at the hellhounds, Come here puppies, come here to father death.

first hellhound charges

Elenah: Screams Why the hell do we need...hellhounds? Mutters And why keep Zale alive?

Damian: He slashes at the hellhound with his whip

Rose: ''Lift her sword when the second hellhound charges at her. She brings the sword down to its neck, slashing it, and rolls sideways to avoid its claws.''

Damian: He ducks under the hellhound as it jumps towards him, barely avoiding the claws, and slashes at it's side with his dagger

Rue: ''Keep a wary watch on Damian and Rose. Seeing they are handling it fine, she signals Elenah to help her with the other two hellhounds. ''Elenah, we can take Fido and Fluffy for a bit of a play, Rose and Damian have theirs under control...I think. Pulls out a throwing dagger from her boot and throws it at the hellhound, aiming the Celestial Bronze dagger for its heart.

''Three of the Hellhounds drop dead, and dissolve into dust, however Rue's knife only grazes the final Hellhound which turns; preparing to charge her again. Before anyone can react, a crack like thunder is heard and the final hellhound also disolves into dust as its head explodes. At the same moment, canisters of some sort drop from the rooftops above amd begin emitting a vile smelling gas in billowing clouds. The demigods begin to feel faint, and fall unconscious soon after.''

''When they wake, they find themselves bound in steel chains and in a dark room, lit only by the dull blue light of a disconnected TV directly in front of them. There appears to be a door to the right side of the room, though it lacks a window entirely and looks to be made of the same metal as the floor beneath them, the walls around them, and the roof above.''

Rue: ........Oh shit, we are so dead...''Her eyes widen as she sees her Gucci glasses broken. Whoever it was...Those bitches, they broke my glasses!!! Looks around and winces as the steel chains rub against her wrist. ''I repeat, we are sooo dead.

Damian: He growls as he sees the chains he is in When I get free of these, HEADS WILL ROLL. He tries to shadow travel out of the chains and to the other end of the room.

''His powers seem to be nullified, and nothing happens. ''

Rue: Sucks ta be ya, now let's do some real work. ''A pin for her hair is in one of her hands, and she quickly unlocks her chains and stretches. ''Ah, being a girl rules. Unlocks all the other chains then, using her faithful pin.
