I

**Hey guys, so this isn't my first fanfiction, but it is my first fanfiction for Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Now, it's been a while since I've read the original books, so if some of the details are a little off, please forgive me. Hope you guys enjoy it!**

Why was it another dream? It had been some five years since the defeat of Gaea, and life as a demigod had improved greatly. Granted it still had its fair share of dangers and monster fights and quests, but at least now the entire Earth wasn't trying to kill them. Since then, Percy and Annabeth Jackson had been living happily together in New Rome. It was like a dream, the two of them finally living together in peace.

Percy always kept up with his friends at Camp Half-Blood and his mother with Iris messages, but yet it wasn't the same as actually seeing them in last time he had seen any of them was at his and Annabeths wedding almost three years ago. For weeks now he had been talking with Annabeth about going back, but she could never get any time off helping the gods redesign Mount Olympus. It disappointed him, but he was still happy living here with her.

After all, he still had Frank and Hazel. Frank had kept his position as praetor and been leading happily alongside Reyna. Leo's garage wasn't too far away either. Calypso was a little hot headed at first when she saw Percy again, but over time that anger had faded away. Grover also managed to keep in touch as well, which didn't surprise Percy at all seeing as Grover was easily Percy's best friend. The only person that hadn't talked to the two, was Nico di Angelo.

Percy didn't know why, but after Gaea was defeated the guy just disappeared. The last time Percy had talked to Jason, he had said that the next time they met in person, he would explain everything. All Jason would say, was that their showdown with Cupid changed Nico completely. Percy sometimes wondered if Nico was in danger, but he knew that wasn't the case. Nico was smarter than that, and could easily handle himself. But that was what concerned Percy the most, Nico knew that and would bite off more than he could chew. And with the dream he was having, it concerned him even more.

Percy saw himself, standing on Half-Blood Hill, the camp glowing in the morning sum. He looked beside him and almost jumped out of his skin. The man standing beside him was strikingly handsome, with soft white hair that ran down to his ears and was perfectly parted around his face. His eyes were near white, as same as his hair, and his face was slim and sharp. He was adorning a solid white cloak that covered most of his body, but Percy could still see some features His arms were fairly thick with muscle, and speaking of his arms, his right arm was outstretched holding up a massive white hawk. He looked over at Percy and smiled as though he were seeing an old friend.

"Ah good you're here," his voice rang as clear as a bell and fit his sharp complexion. For a second Percy was dumbfounded, but he managed to find his voice.

"What are you talking about, this is my dream, who are you," Percy asked almost irritated at the invasion. The man chuckled for a second and nodded.

"Fair enough. Though technically Percy Jackson, this is both of our dreams. It was the only way I knew to contact you on such short notice. But the reason I'm here, is to ask for your help," he spoke so softly, it sounded almost like there were sorrow in his voice, which eased Percy slightly but something was still uneasy,

"How do you know my name," Percy asked.

"Poseidon has told me much about you Percy, all of the gods have spoken of you and the others who saved the world from Gaea, and when the incident happened, I knew I could turn to you," already Percy didn't like the way he used the term incident.

"So you're a god," Percy guessed, The man only smiled and chuckled.

"Sadly no, I'm no god, but I am an immortal entity, so I guess you could say I'm similar. There is no throne for me on Olympus, but I was well known in Greek culture. Personally I have no true name, but you can call me Felix if you'd like, oh and this Frost," he said motioning to the hawk which bowed in greeting. The bird was the most peculiar looking bird Percy had ever seen. It was solid white and stood almost three feet tall from its talons to it's head, and he was sure its wingspan was just as impressive. Just being close to he massive beast was almost enough to intimidate Percy. But he kept his cool and tried to pull out more information.

"Well what is it you need from me," he asked curiously.

"It's regarding Nico di Angelo," he started but then everything started to fade as Percy started to slip from unconsciousness, he was waking up. "Damn, Percy I need you to return to Camp Half-Blood immediately with your friends, the fate of light and dark hangs in the balance."

Percy shot awake in his bed. The sun was barely peeking over the horizon and Annabeth was still sleeping soundly next to him. That dream was as vivid as it could have been, meaning that whoever that was, he had actually visited Percy in his dreams. Percy instantly slipped out of bed and made his way to the living room, he had to send an Iris message immediately. He grabbed a few Drachmas and positioned a prism next to the window to make a rainbow.

"I need to talk to Jason Grace," he said tossing the coins in. The light morphed and changed hues for several seconds before the dim image of Jason appeared before him. Jason jumped from surprise but then smiled as he recognized the face of his old friend.

"Percy, good to see you man," Jason said waving happily. Percy smiled and waved back, Jason just had an aura that seemed to brighten the mood no matter how grim it may have been.

"Same to you, but listen, I think we may have a problem," Percy said softly, his smile fading.

"What's up? Something happen," Jason asked as his expression changed to concern.

"Well, as of right now, I don't know. But I had a dream-"

"Uh-oh,"

"Yeah, wasn't a nightmare but it still concerns me. Some god-like guy talked to me and urged me to assemble our group back together to Half-Blood hill. He didn't get to say what the problem was, but it has something to do with Nico," Percy explained and Jason nodded.

"I don't like the sound of this, for all we know it's a trap. But I don't know, I can't remember any kind of myth or legend about that, though the bird is familiar. In any case, I'll let Piper know and talk to Chiron and Dionysus, they may be able to shed some light on this," Jason said as he shrugged trying to place a name on the bird.

"Alright, I'll get a message out to Leo to fire up the Argo II, then go talk to Hazel and Frank and I'll let Annabeth know when she wakes up. Also go talk to Rachel, see if she can tell you anything,"

"Got it, and until you get here we'll start reviewing every myth in the book and try to figure this out "

"Thanks, It shouldn't take more than two days for us to arrive, if that long. I'll see you when we get there,"

"See ya man, and hey, it's god to see you again,"

"You too man," the image flickered and Jason vanished leaving nothing but a clear rainbow. Another Drachma in and Percy sighed.

"Leo Valdez," again the rainbow flickered, though this time the image of a grease covered Leo appeared, his infamous grin shining bright.

"Percy, what's up dude," he greeted, wiping oil from his face with a towel.

"Hey Leo, how fast can you fire up the Argo II, we need a trip to Camp Hal-blood, I'll explain when we get there," Percy said trying to skip the formalities, he wanted to waste as little time as he could.

"Alright man, gimme maybe ten minutes to fire it up, thank you for choosing Valdez airlines," Leo laughed which made Percy smile, he loved Leo's sense of humor.

"Thanks man, I'll see you in a few, we're going home,"

Chiron stroked his beard thoughtfully as soon as Jason had informed him about what Percy had saw. Chiron had been in the middle of overseeing an archery class with the help of some older Apollo campers, when Jason had arrived. The centaur instantly relieved himself of his bow and led Jason a fair distance away from the other campers for discretion.

"This is very strange, I can't recall any myth, Greek or Roman, about anyone who would fit that description. Have you spoken to Dionysus about this yet," Chiron asked with a glance to the other campers, making sure that they weren't listening.

"No, as soon as Percy told me I came to inform you," Jason replied.

"Alright, well before we make any further decisions we should consult him. He may know something that we don't," the centaur suggested.

"Right, should I talk to Rachel and see if she can foresee a prophecy," Jason asked to which Chiron sighed and shook his head.

"No, let's not jump ahead of ourselves just yet. I want to know more more about this mysterious character before we start making a big deal out of it. Go on and talk to Dionysus, I will be with you once this lesson is over," Jason nodded to Chirons order and instantly headed in the direction of the Big House. It was a fairly short walk from the archery field to the large cabin, but with every step more questions grew in Jasons mind. For Chiron to not know of the guy, it almost seemed like it was impossible. Chirons knowledge of Greek mythology was spot on, more extensive than most anyone's he knew, to include Annabeth. But Dionysus was a god, perhaps he would have some answers.

As he approached the front porch of the house he spotted Dionysus on the front porch, dressed as if he were about to get up and leave for Hawaii. A pair of khaki shorts topped with the ugliest shirt Jason had ever seen. Bright blue and peppered with lush palm trees and sandy beaches. Along with his sunglasses, straw hat, and matching flip-flops, he was about as un-godlike as he could look. He raised up a can of Diet-Coke and took a drink before sighing at Jason's approach.

"Yes," he asked sarcastically as if he were too busy to really pay attention.

"Sir, I received an Iris messaged from Percy Jackson this morning," as soon as Jason said the name Percy Jackson Dionysus went from looking bored, to more focused. Jason explained what Percy had told him about the strange man named Felix, and about assembling the seven at the camp. The more Jason went, the more Dionysus' expression soured. Jason finished to which Dionysus only nodded and stared off blankly as if he were deep in thought.

"I see, and you're sure no one else knows," Dionysus questioned suspiciously.

"Yes sir, It is between the four of us," Jason reassured.

"Good, then get Piper and Chiron, all of you meet me in the Big House immediately,"

It took no time at all to convince Annabeth of what needed to be done, she knew all too well what dreams meant for demigods. She had packed her things in no time and made a quick Iris message to inform the gods that she would be taking the next week or so off for "personal reasons" though they didn't seem to mind her absence. As she and Percy made their way through New Rome to inform Frank and Hazel, Percy told her about what he saw, no doubt in an attempt for some insight on what it meant or who it was. But her answer, wasn't what he'd hoped for.

"I'm honestly baffled, I mean, even the minor Greek gods and goddesses had some kind of story behind their existence. But a god like figure who has no name and is seemingly unrecognizable, it doesn't make sense," she replied with a shrug.

"I was afraid of that," Percy said with a slight chuckle.

"It's just so odd though, and you're sure that he was talking about our Nico, the son of Hades," she asked.

"Had to have been, he used his full name," Percy replied which only frustrated Annabeth even more. She was use to having all the answers, and not knowing a single thing about who this person was, frustrated her to no end.

"Damn, I guess we'll have to wait until we reach the camp, maybe Chiron will have some answers for us," she said trying to sound hopeful, though she wasn't even sure the old centaur would know. She knew just about every Greek myth there was to know, but this one she had never heard anything about, not even the faintest bit.

When they found Frank, he was walking though the streets of New Rome with his right arm locked with Hazels left. Annabeth's heart warmed and she smiled seeing them together. It reminded her of herself and Percy and how happy they were together. It almost felt like a crime to her to make the two come with them and possibly risk their lives again. She knew that they were willing to do anything for their friends, but after the sacrifice Bob had made for her and Percy all those years ago, she never wanted anyone to give their life for her ever again.

"Percy, Annabeth, good to see you two this morning," the son of Ares called to them, waving at them with his free hand.

"Hey guys, um, can we talk for a bit,"

The two of them were more than happy to join in on the expedition, especially Hazel when Percy mentioned Nico was somehow involved. The group informed Reyna of their journey and she agreed that it was of vital importance that they go. She had some supplies prepared for them, though with the the sky and ground clear of any real dangers there wasn't much they would be needing. Together, the group left New Rome and made their way to Leo and Calypso's Garage where they were not so surprised to see the Argo II already in the air.

"Welcome passengers, does everyone have their tickets," Leo laughed as he exited the garage and locked the door behind him. The group joined Calypso who was already on board the vessel and began their journey towards their old home, Camp Half-Blood.
