Nico had decided that he wanted a puppy. He also happened to be visiting his dad that day. When he got to his dad's palace his dad was waiting for him.
Nico suddenly had an idea. "Daddy?" he asked.
"Yes, Nico?" his dad responded.
"Can I have a puppy?"
"Not right now."
"Please, Daddy?" He looked at his dad with his bestest puppy dog eyes.
"Oh, all right." Hades gave his son a hellhound puppy.
"Thank you daddy!" Nico shouted and was already halfway to the door to play with his puppy outside.
"Stay in the yard and don't eat anything!" Hades called after Nico.
"Okay!" Nico shouted back as he skipped out the door with his puppy. He left so quickly that he missed his dad's smile.
Nico spent most of his time at his dad's palace playing with the puppy that he named Scamp. They grew so close over the years that they became inseparable. Through the Mist all of Nico's classmates just saw a bullmastiff instead of the hound's true form.
When Nico went into the Lotus Casino he forgot everything except a black puppy named Scamp. Scamp was very upset. For years he moped around in the Underworld until he finally formed a pack.
One day, after Bianca had died, Nico wasn't paying attention and was attacked by a pack of three hellhounds. Then suddenly the hounds stopped attacking. When Nico got a good look at the hounds he realize the leader of the hellhounds was Scamp.
Scamp bounded over to Nico, knocked him over, and started licking his face. Nico was laughing as he tried to fend off Scamp.
Later when Nico talked to his father about Scamp, Hades told him what had happened to Scamp when Nico had gone into the Lotus Casino and how he had formed a pack and disappeared.
The End
