Chapter one: Nico
Camp was back to normal, and everything was just as it was. Percy and Annabeth teasing eachother like married couples.
Nico and Will argued for the past few months.
Will would always drag Nico into the infirmary, asking for "help" but it was more than that.
Nico would have to stay longer than the camp curfews.
"Cmon Will! It's 12:30! Way past curfew! No ones even injured!"
Nico complained, pacing the floors of the infirmary.
Will was organizing some tubes and medicine.
He turned to face Nico, hands on hips.
"Well excuse me! Being a son of Apollo is not easy! Stop complaining Nic."
Will replied, and Nico closed his mouth.
Leaning on the wall, his only reply was,
"Touché."
Will have a small laughter at Nico's reply.
After a few minutes in the infirmary, Will and Nico finally were dismissed.
"Freedom!"
Nico shouted at the night sky, as soon as he stepped out of the building.
Will rolled his eyes as Nico dashed to his cabin.
As Nico reached the Hades Cabin, he threw open the door, slammed it and threw himself on his bunk.
The mahogany coffin made it look as if Nico fell dead face first on his bed.
The son of Hades rolled over, facing the ceiling, breathing heavily, he closed his eyes.
Dark place. Moisten air, glass like sand, and fiery air.
Nico stumbled around, trying to assure that he wasn't back in the place. Cackles filled the air, the fury–like creatures hung like bats on the ceiling.
Running from the taunting, Nico stumbled into a foggy area. There, the goddess Ahklys wept. She looked up, her face full of pain.
"Alas son of Hades! Why are you back? You know things in the Underworld is disastrous!"
Ahklys told him. The son of Hades faltered. He had not visited his father palace for a long time. He only felt souls go and escape the Underworld, but never knew what was going on.
Ahklys began weeping more.
"Son of Hades, I believe your misery is fading! You found that......son of Apollo. I cannot make you more miserable than you already are! However, in the future, you won't be able to embrace the misery that will meet you!"
Ahklys warned. Nico felt his heart drop.
He wasn't sure what that meant, but he should consider her warning for the future.
Nico vegan slipping away in the shadows.
"Be warned son of Hades! Your journey will not be easy!"
The goddess called out. Before Nico could ask what she meant, he faded and slid into another dimension.
He was atop a mountain. Below, the city of San Fransisco glittered. Then, Nico heard shouts and the cry of war.
Running to the source of sound, he faced a full battle.
Roman demigod's littered the ground, while some stood fighting. Lighting cackled and struck the earth.
Nico saw a blonde Roman Praetor charging towards a giant Titan. The son of Hades guessed that must've been Jason before he got abducted. The demigod insoles his sword in the Titans abdomen, golden ichor spilled the ground, running down the hill.
All around, monsters defended their weak master, and lightning struck them down.
Before Nico could witness the full battle, he woke up when the last lightning cackled in his ear.
The sun shone in the early morning, peeking through a small window in the Hades Cabin.
Nico rubbed his eyes and got out of his bunk.
Hastily getting dressed, he heard a small knock, hopping with one foot, he opened the door to see Will.
The sun shone at Nico's face, who averted his eyes.
Will didn't make things easier. With his blonde hair, that seemed brighten things up.
"Ugh, Will, your hair is burning my eyes."
Nico complained. Will gave the son of Hades a smirk.
The ghost King groaned, he didn't want to blush early in the morning.
"I get that a lot, I got my hair from Apollo."
Will commented, looking up at his golden hair.
Nico groaned, but knowing it was his last day at the infirmary, he began to cheer up.
"Hey cheer up Neeks! It's your last day at the infirmary, I know you hate that place."
Will assured. Nico nodded as Will dragged him to the torture place.
