Taken
When they arrived at the house, they walked in to the house and were greeted by a bunch of teenagers.
"Bella!"
She was almost tackled by Nico, however Hades managed to catch him by the back of his shirt before he was able to tackle her.
"Nico" Hades growled.
Nico recoiled away from him with a scared look. "sorry" he said sheepishly.
Bella sighed a little bit. "Hades, don't be mean, he was just excited to see me" she said in a reprimanding tone as she walked forward and wrapped her arms around Nico in a hug. Almost immediately he relaxed into her embrace.
"Hey dad." Percy spoke up hesitantly.
"Percy" Poseidon greeted with a nod of the head. Bella could see the excitement in Poseidon's eyes seeing his son.
"Thalia" Zeus said in greeting. Thalia scowled crossing her arms in front of her and walked away. Bella couldn't help but feel amused by her reaction but sighed a little. She understood where Thalia was coming from, but at the same time. Ouch, that was harsh.
Bella walked over to the couch with Nico and sat down.
"Are you ok?" Will asked sounding concerned as he looked over at Bella.
"Yeah, I'm fine" Bella replied "I'm just glad I was at the office and not somewhere on the streets." She added.
Nico's eyes flashed dangerously as his grip tightened around her in a protective manner.
"Careful" Hades said warningly but amused by his son's actions. Bella ran a hand through Nico's hair affectionately. "Oh that reminds me" Hades said sounding amused. "Derek and JJ are definitely going to pester you with questions since they saw me at the hospital." he said.
Bella tilts her head a little bit. "Why would they care?" she asked confused.
Hades however didn't answer, he only turned to his brothers. "Didn't you guys say there was supposed to be a meeting?" he questioned. Zeus and Poseidon blinked a little bit as they remembered that they had been in a meeting at the time of Hades's sudden disappearance.
Hades all but shoved them out of the house as the three of them left.
"I've never seen my dad so keen on going to a meeting." Nico commented.
"I think he just wanted to get Zeus and Poseidon out of the house." Will said looking over at his boy friend.
Bella ruffled Nico's hair and pried his arms from her. "Alright you guys, I'm going to go make dinner." she said as she got up and walked into the kitchen. Walking over to the fridge she pulled out a package of meat and set it onto the counter before getting out some spices. She set the stove on preheat and readied a large metal pan sheet with tin foil. She put the meat into a large bowl and added the spices that was needed. After getting it all mixed up she put it all onto the tinfoil on the pan and sculpted it into what looked like a loaf. She made two of them before putting them into the stove. She set a timer and washed her hands.
As she reached for a paper towel she looked up. fear shot through her as she saw someone standing behind her with with a white mask.
Horror shot through her as a scream ripped though her throat, but it was muffled as the person covered her mouth with a white towel that had a foul scent. She fought with every ounce of strength that she had, but the man over powered her. She desperately hoped that one of the kids in the other room heard the struggle, but knew that they wouldn't. The TV was too loud. The man dragged her out of the house with very little effort.
She continued to fight the man as he dragged her into the trees and over to a grey van. He shoved her into the back of the van and slammed the door shut. As the door shut she fell unconscious.
