My second story and please review. If theres anything wrong please say so.


I didn't know what to believe that I was finally getting out of the fields Asophedel, or that I have a brother. He asked me if I still knew who I was. I responded, and I soon found myself out of the underworld. I had hoped my curse had gone away, but with my luck a diamond as big as my first appeared out of the ground. I had to explain to him about my curse and how I had died in the forty's. Later after walking for about 4 hours I saw a camp about 2 miles away. Me and Nico started talking. "So where are we going?"

"To Camp Jupiter" he said

"What's it like there?"

"It's strict, but you'll be safe there. Listen Bia.. uh Hazel it's."

"Wait what were you going to say."

"Oh nothing Hazel ."

"Tell me now.'' I was in front of him right now and since I was 4 inches taller he was probably nervous.

"Bianca I was going to say Bianca"

"Who's Bianca.''

"My sister my actual sister."

I was kinda cheerful, because well you know I like having a brother, but you know having a sister would be even cooler so I asked "cool when do I get to meet her.''

He seemed really sad like he was about to cry then said "she uh died about two years ago."

"Oh I'm so sorry I know how you feel"

He mumbled something under his breath and I said "what did you say?"

He seemed iritated and then raised his voice and said ''You don't know how I feel. I had to go through the death of the only family I ever had. She took care of me, and loved me. Then she leaves me to go join some dumb god's troops and says she'll see me once every couple years."

"Nico calm down I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault, Hazel. Im sorry I shouldn't have yelled and I shouldn't have gone off on you like that. I just wish that stupid flaw thing would go away."

"What was that." I asked

"Nothing lets just set up camp for tonight. It's not safe to travel in the dark. You know monsters and everything."

We set up camp which was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Turns out when your a son of Pluto you can kinda just summon four skeleton guys and watch them do the work. Well sleep anyway, Nico pased out right after he told them to set up two tents. I had to drag him into the tent then put him into a sleeping bag, but if you knew my luck it didn't happen. He woke up as soon as I was able to drag him into his tent. He woke up and said ''ow. Why does my back feel like I just slept on a cactus?"

"Who knows must be some weird thing going on."

"Anyway" he said "I have something for you"

He pulled out some weird bronze sword and said "for you."

"What for" I asked

"Your supposed to put butter on your toast with it. What do you think." He said sarcastically

"So basically your giving a thirteen year-old girl a dangerous weapon."

"Yup."

I started to laugh, but then I realised something. He wasn't laughing. I saw a little perk, but no smile then I realized, he had never smiled once since I met we started talking about how far the Camp would be we heard a loud explosion. Then our tent exploded(that was the first time I was happy that he woke up). Out walked some ugly looking monsters. There were about a dozen snake lookin ladies, four ten foot tall monsters with what looked like flaming dodgeballs, and cyclops with roman armor on. He was about 12 feet tall, had green eyes and smelled like a skunk. "Stop now or die " he said.

Then stepped out a kid that looked like he was about 5'5. He had some weird colored eyes with green and yellow, a big body(not fat or ripped but he looked strong), and brown hair with some freckles that were really faint. He wore a plain white shirt and black shorts. It looked kinda out of style, but he made it work. Then I noticed the weirdest part he had a Dallas Cowboy hat on with a sword. The sword also had a Dallas Cowboy star on the hilt atached to his shorts. "Big Dallas fan I see" Nico said

"Quit stalling" he said

"Nico di Angelo, Son of Hades surrender. I promise you will not be tortured or hurt." he said

"The part where the cyclops said surrender or die kinda doesn't reassure me." Nico said

"Sorry, but he's a cyclops and he doesn't know when it's wrong to say something."he said

He disintegrated the cyclops with one hit and that killed him. I thought of the boy and I thought he seemed different. He was not purely evil I could tell. I didn't think he was evil at all. Then i thought and realised he had probably been corupted(and no I didn't have a crush on him I just didn't think this kid could be introduced himself and said "I'm Mathew Ryder son of Nike, god of victory and sports."

"Wait wasn't Nike just the god of victory." I said

"It's been translated into sports, and you know when they take on American perspectives it turns into the culture's sports." Mathew said

"So you decided to pick football.'' Nico said

"Yah I mean it's coolest sport and the biggest sport in America." Mathew said

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I have to take you back to the Underworld."

Nico said in a very protective way "I can't let you do that."

"I'm sorry Nico di Angelo, Hazel Levesquie, but Zeus has decreed that you have to go back, unless you show a signifigant rule in helping him, or prove you deserve a second chance."

"How would we do that." I asked

"By either beating the group of giants, dracena, or me."

"I should explain these monsters are on release. They get to stay out of tarturas as long as they help Zeus, but if they disobey the gods then I am supposed to disintegrate them. It actually doesn't matter who fights me as long as the other wins."

"I'll do it" Nico said

They got on a flat plain with no grass just dirt. We were about three miles away from camp now and we wouldn't have been able to see, but the giants put up there dodgeballs and the whole plain just lit up like the sun was out. Nico and Mathew drew swords and prepared to fight knowing that neither of them wanted to do this.
