YOU PEOPLE ARE SCARY AND MEAN! (and highly crazy) JUST TAKE THE CHAPTER AND PUT YOUR WEAPONS AWAY!!!

PLEASE... LETS JUST GO...

Nico's POV

I stepped back into the woods for a second. It would take the darkness and a lot of concentration to get this to work. It would drain me so much but only a child of Hades could conjur up and use such a blade.

"Percy! Cover me!" I yelled.

He nodded and stepped between me and the bull. He still fought it but it was busy with Jason.

I stuck my hand out, ready to grab the shadowy sword. I made the shadows open up and move around me. All I saw was darkness. I felt a very cold presence near me. I reached out further and my finger tips wrapped around the cool leather handle. It was a one handed longsword, the blade pure black and made of swirling shadows. You could only see the solidified version from the corner of your eye, hence the name. The hilt was black crystal, mined from the depths of the fields of Asphodel. The handle was a cold leather, smooth but with a great grip. The end gem was a hexagon and in the center was another crystal, which was white, carved into a skull. (Any good artists out there?) I lifted it and it sucked all the power from the shadows around me, filling me with power. I stood in a battle stance, ready to charge at it.

"I GOT IT!" I shouted.

Percy and Jason looked over at me and the sword. They gasped and stepped away. The beast faced me and scrapped the ground with its foot, ready to charge. I raised the sword higher, and leaned forward. I rushed at it, yelling. It charged as well. I felt my speed quicken and I sliced it. When we were on opposite sides, there was a deep gash running all along his side, very fatal. I remained unharmed. The sword suddenly grew extremely heavy. It disappeared back into the shadows and I crumbled, all energy fading from me at once. I felt my self be caught but I stayed still.

Not done yet. Calm down.

Percy's POV

"I GOT IT!" I heard Nico shout.

Then I saw the sword. It fit him perfectly. Pure black and it looked like it was made of shadows. Me and Jason gasped. Where the hell did he get that? We stepped away from the bull. It turned all its attention onto Nico.

They charged at each other, I hardly saw them. Just a black and a gold blur. I watched as they were now in separate places. The bull had a huge slice in it, and Nico was breathing heavily. The sword fell and disappeared mid-air. He went limp and rushed forward and caught him. His eyes closed but he was still breathing fine. While I was checking on Nico I didn't know the bull, rushing. Right. At. Us.

I felt a pain in my side and everything changed around me.
