Beau: I wonder where those four are by now...

Wallace: ''Wallace arrives at the Camp Entrance with all his stuff. ''Hi... I'm guessing that you're part of the quest?

Beau: He shuts the game. The leader, as a matter of fact. Anyway, I'm Beau Merrick. We're waiting for the others apparently.

Haru: She jogs up with her dufflebag Konichi'wa. I'm Haru.

Wallace: ''He looks at her. ''Hi... Haru. I'm Wallace, head counselor of Posey's Cabin.

Haru: Daughter of Dionysus.

Harper: ''She walks towards them in a white t-shirt, jean shorts, and combat boots while tying her hair into a messy bun. When she sees them, she smiles and waves'' Hey, mates.

Beau: Now, the only one missing is the Eris kid, and we're ready to go.

Meribel: She runs up and sees them gathered. Sorry for being late. Woke up after the alarm rang five times.

Haru: Is that everyone, Beau? I'm just making sure so no one gets left behind.

Beau: He nods. Yes, Haru. Anyway, who wants to drive? He shakes the keys.

Haru: Me! I'm eighteen so...

Meribel: You do it.

Harper: She shrugs As long as you don't kill us, girly, I'm fine.

Haru: Chill. I have a car at home. She takes the keys and walks over to the car Everyone in. She hops into the drivers seat

Wallace: Wallace sits on the shotgun seat next to Haru.

Meribel: She enters the van and seats behind Wallace and Haru.

Beau: ''Beau enters the van. ''So, the itinerary of the trip... We're off to the NY Airport, then McCarran International in Las Vegas, and finally Planet Hollywood. I've reserved two suites by the way. Then in McCarran, we'll meet Hermes, and we go back. He has both thumbs up.

Haru: Alright. She starts the ignition C'mon let's get it on!

Meribel: Please do be careful or I'll have you eat a whole apple.

Haru: Promise. Everyone in? If so, buckle up.

Wallace: ''He fastens his seatbelt and grabs the handlebar. ''Let's go!

Haru: She starts driving smoothly Told you. I never break a promise.

Harper: She slips on her headphones and drums her fingers against the armrest

Beau: Off we go to the airport... He goes back to his laptop and views the picture of the caduceus from Hermes.

They drive off and eventually reach the airport and they are about to park the vehicle in the parking lot.

NY Airport
Harper: She shrugs her backpack onto her right shoulder and gets out of the van once they park

Meribel: ''She follows her and gets out of the van. ''

Wallace: He gets out of the van and waits for the others so they can enter the airport.

Beau: Holy crap! Guys, look at that. He points at a group of six harpies in the sky chasing them and begins running away from public view.

Wallace: ''He looks up and sees the harpies. ''What the!? ''He pulls out his lighter and clicks it making it transform into a trident. ''Come at me you ugly birds! ''He sees a nearby fountain and jumps in it. He sent a ray of water towards the harpies.''

Haru: Oh crap! She scurries to get out of the van, grabs her dufflebag, and presses the charm on bronze braclet which turns into a sword and swings at one

Meribel: ''She takes off one of her bangles which turns into a dagger. Then, she takes out a golden apple from her bag. ''Ooh, time for a little chaos. She chuckles.

Harper: As the harpies fly closer, Harper starts concentrating and, the second they come closer, a massive wall of flowers erupts out of the ground; throwing a couple harpies off balance.

Beau: ''He leaps into the air reaching a specific harpy. He spins the nunchaku around the harpy and made a massive hit to its abdomen which causes it to fall out of balance.''

Harper: She summons a tangle of ivy to wrap itself around a harpy, driving it to the ground, before she stabs it with one of her knives.

Haru: ''She stabs a harpy, turning it to dust. Another harpy slashed at her right arm.'' Ow!

Wallace: ''From the fountain, Wallace sends a torrent of water which makes one of the harpies fall on the ground. Then he lunges at the harpy and impales it with his trident turning it to dust.''

Harper: She throws a knife at another harpy, impaling it in the chest, and turning it into dust before chuckling Four down, two to go.

Beau: Harper, take charge in this one, please. He pulls Haru out of the fight and gets his medical bag.
