Some dont stay long enough
The Seven were happy some lived at camp and others went out into the mortal world. Leo and Calypso opened their repair/flower shop in Texas with a little cafe. Percy and Annabeth lived in Athens Greece. Annabeth was an Architect and Percy was the boss of eight aquariums. Jason and Piper were leaders at Camp Demigod. Frank and Hazel had a Jewelry store part of it was for the demigod world. Frank owned the LA Zoo and other Zoos across the United States. Nico well everyone misses him. He died commuting suicide after everyone knew his secret. Even though he was over Percy he still felt like the world didn't need him. Percy wasn't the same he felt guilt and he was hurting himself every day. All of his friends told him it wasn't his fault, but he just didn't listen. He talked to Hades and Persephone after it happened. Hades was depressed and was killing himself from the inside out. Persephone looked back at how she treated Nico and felt bad.
The ghost King had no one left in his life. His sister died on a quest, mother was killed by Zeus over a grudge, and his father never talked to him unless it involved Nico doing something for him. Everyone at Camp had a statue of Nico and Bianca that were automatons that would protect Camp. They had a cemetery for all the fallen heroes Roman and Greek. Some weren't famous or noticed, but they had a proper send off.
The Seven were at Nico's grave. Percy looked horrible he hadn't slept a lot, eaten much, and his eyes were dark with sorrow. He didn't have that sparkle. Everyone thought he would follow Nico. Nico didn't hang himself or shoot himself. What he did was worse he sliced a small cut on his arm with his sword and then he jumped into a pit of hellhounds. He left a letter but no one reads it anymore. Leo would rarely joke around because he always tried to cheer up the son of Hades.
"I should have tried harder to be a better friend. I should have stopped your sister from going into the monster. I should have been there for you Nick...." Percy fell to his knees on Nico's crying.
"Hey it's not your fault Perce. You wouldn't have know what he would do. You wouldn't have made it on time to stop him. He is in a better place. Hades said he made it to the Island of the Bless. Nico wouldn't want you to beat yourself up because of his actions. Neither would Bianca." Leo patted his back and knelt beside him trying to cheer up a little.
"He's right Perce. You need to stop this or else I will seriously have to beat some sense into you." Hazel narrowed her eyes and summoned a small silver skull and put in on Nico's grave.
"You guys don't get it. I watched as his sister died. I watched him go through so much pain. He blamed me for his sisters death and he's right. I always thought I could have saved her. I should have just nocked her out and carried her to safety. Nico was like my little brother and now he's gone because of me. I wasn't there for him when he need him." Percy was crying his eyes out at the end.
"Did you kill him?" A kid asked.
"W-w-what?" Percy looked behind him
A man dressed in a black suit with a blood red tie, black shirt, black shoes, black ray bands, and a black Rivet coat. He was around 17 or 18. He smelled of rotten flesh and had a faint glow of darkness.
"Did you kill him?" He asked again.
"No."
"Did he ask you to watch over him?"
"No."
"Did my brother forgive you when he learned how Bianca died at the junkyard of Hephaestus?" The man walked a little closer to them.
"Yes he did, but-" the man raised his hand to silence him.
"Nico di Angelo was a man who had a rough child hood. His mom was killed in front of him. Then he had his memory erased of the incident. He learned how his sister died and forgave you. He helped you in two wars. My brother stood by your side even when he wanted to just live his life isolated. He made the stupidest mistake by taking his own life thinking the pain would go away. Every the dead feel pain. Pain isn't something you can out run. It stays with you for ever. Once you accept it you live a happier life." The man put some flowers on his brothers grave and then walked away.
"What's your name oh so mysterious man." Leo asked with a small smile.
"Sebastian Fantasma di Angelo. Blood related to Nico and Bianca." Sebastian grinned and then walked away without going into the shadows.
"Maybe we should get something to eat and then do the activities." Annabeth suggested and everyone nodded.
"Percy come on bro." Jason helped him up.
"Yeah ok." Percy still had watery eyes and weighed a little less.
"You need to eat something before you become a skeleton." Piper narrowed her eyes and shocked her finger at him.
"If you're so into thinking you failed then maybe you can redeem yourself by making sure this new relative of Nico's doesn't die." Frank patted his back then left with Hazel.
Everyone left to the mess hall to get something to eat. Percy decided on eating so he could keep an eye on this Sebastian guy. Who knows maybe he can ask him to summon Nico so he could talk to him. Hopefully Nico doesn't hate him for not being a good friend. Only way to find out is to ask him to summon Nico so he could talk to him. Then become friends with this guy. Everything is turning out ok but ever sense they heard of a new war coming no one has been getting enough sleep.
