**TIME SKIP BACK TO WHEN NICO DISAPPEARED**

Nicos POV-
I took out my sword and watched as Will opened the car door and woke the others up. The footsteps are getting louder and quicker. I look back at the woods in-front of me and I see leaves flying out of the forest. I feel a force so strong I haven't felt since I fell into Tartarus. I dropped my sword and took off my skull ring and placed it next to my sword. I didn't know what I was doing, but it was like I wasn't doing it. I looked back at the black SUV and followed the force. After a good 20 minutes of walking in the forest I think 'what am I doing, I need to go back!' I turn around and take a step forward but I couldn't go back. It was like there was an invisible wall blocking me from going back. I try to shadow travel but it foesnt work either. 'Oookkayy then' I turn around to walk to the force when I get hit in the head with something so hard I pass out.
     I wake up in the back of a moving black van. I hear adult male voices talking from the front seats.
"So what your saying, is that we just got a son of Hades, named Nico Di-angelo, who has been to Tartarus!?" I winced when he said Tartarus.
"Yup pretty much." The other man said.
    "Oh. Master will be so proud of me-Uh I mean us." The same man says.
    "Good correction, I would have killed you." The man said. The other guy laughed nervously. They went dead silent after that. I thought about what just happened and who these guys might be, nothing came to mind. Ok. Ok. Ok. Think; maybe I could shadow travel out of this van and back home. I concentrate but nothing happens. The second I try to shadow travel a beeping noise comes from the front.
"HEY!!" I hear the man in the passenger seat call. I open my eyes and see the man pointing a gun at me. "HOW DID YOU WAKE UP SO FAST??" He yells.
"I Uh- I, um,you see,I-" I try to explain.
"SHUTUP STUPID DEATH KID!!" He yells. "SIT DOWN AN-"
"Be quiet Kevin you don't need to yell he's right there." The other man says.
"Right, right. Sorry Alex." Kevin says.
"We're here, knock him out." Alex says. Keven shoots me with his gun and the last thing I remember them saying is "Alex take him to prison 163 right next to that fake feet kid."

Annabeths POV-

Percy is sleeping in the car next to me. He's drooling.
Will keeps waking up and falling asleep. I feel bad for him. We have no clue where Leo,Grover or Nico went but we know it's not good. Hazel finally woke up and we got her McDonald's. Frank is sleeping on her lap (He turned into a dog and fell asleep on her lap.). Hazel Is eating her chicken nuggets and fries. Jason and Piper are talking about something in hushed tones and I'm reading a Greek book called 'The Greek Plays' written by James Romm and Mary Lefkowits. It's written in all Greek so it's easy to read. "Ahh!" Will wakes up again and Jason looks through the rear view mirror. He clears his throat. "Um I'm fine just..., nightmares" He swallows and looks at me. I look down at my book and he rests his head on my shoulder. He closes his eyes and falls asleep. I close my book and rest my head on his. I fall asleep for the rest of the car ride back to camp.

Hazel POV-

Frank is sleeping on my lap. Percy, Annabeth, Will and I think Piper along with Frank is sleeping and I'm eating chicken nuggets. When we get to a red light I ask Jason how far until we get there.
"About 5 minutes." He answers. "Why?"
"No reason."
"Ok."
For the next couple of minutes we were silent until I ask Jason a question.
"Hey, Jason?"
"Yea?"
"Do you know what's going on with Frank? He's been very secretive and he's always hanging out
around you and Percy; or he's with Chiron and I want to known why." Jason didn't answer until we pulled up to camp. He stopped the car and turned to look at me.
"Hazel I can't tell you. It's not my place to say what it is, even if I did know I wouldn't tell you." I nod. By the time he finished speaking Chiron had run down to the car along with Mr.D.
"Hello, why are you guys home so early? Is there a problem?" Chiron asks.
Will wakes up screaming again. Chiron looks in the car and looks at Will then focuses his attention back to Jason and me. Jason explains what happened while I wake the rest up.

Franks POV-
I wake up to Hazel shaking me awake. I change back into a person and grab my bag that's on the floor.
"Hey." I say.
"Hello, can you help wake the others up?" Hazel asks.
"Yes. Of course." I respond. Hazel smiles and stars to shake Piper awake. I had a different idea of waking them up. I get out of the car and change into a lion.
"ROOARRRR!!"
Everyone that was sleeping wakes screaming and taking out weapons. I turn back into a human; I laugh and Hazel playfully slaps my arm. But it actually hurts a lot more then it should. "Ow." I complain. Hazel laughs. The other 4 get out of the car and Mr.D and Chiron are talking very quietly.
"I see, I see." I hear Chiron say. Once everyone was out of the car Chiron ordered us to go unpack our things.
"WHAT!! No.no.NO! We can't do that we have to save the Leo, Grover and Nico!! They could be in great danger!" Will complains.
"Exactly, Will we don't know where they are and we don't know how dangerous they are; therefor we cannot have you guys going back out there. You would need a quest first anyway." Will picks up his bag and runs past Chiron and into camp half blood. I look at Jason, Piper, Hazel, Percy and Annabeth and we make a silent agreement to let Will be for a little bit. We go to our cabins and unpack our things.
