The Reason
Part 1
A Real Live Hero
The Titan's curse
When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold
When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood's run stale
"You should dance." Nico tells his sister Bianca gesturing to the dance floor.
She shakes her head, "No."
"Why?"
"Why don't you ?" She counters and he turns away looking down at the mithomagic cards in his lap and started sorting through them. The minatr, the nimyan lion, and the manticor all stared back at him. He is brought out of his study of the cards by someone grabing both him and Bianca by the scruf of there necks. The person drug out of the gym and into a room. Dr. Thorn stands in front of him and his sister and before there very eyes he turned into the manticor!
Whoa! He thought, so cool!
I must be dreaming?
Then his eyes find the manticor's tail and the spikes he aims to throw at them. Suddenly he disappears into the shadows and a moment later a boy stands in the door way, but he doesn't get a good look at him because the manticor blocks his view. But what he dose see makes his heart beat spread up, sea green eyes and dark hair.
He sees the maticor's tail flick the spikes at the boy and one gets him in the shoulder. Than a spike impails into the wall right next to Bianca's shoulder.
The boy and manticor exchange some words, but Nico is to terrified to notice what they are saying.
On there walk to where they were going he was vegly awhare of Dr. Thorn saying something and Bianca asking a question, Bianca being held at and himself defending her.
The next thing he is aware of is standing outside on a cliff with Bianca and the boy standing in front of them with a sword in his hand.
He is still tariffide but with the boy standing protectively infringe of them he feels safe.
"Ah! Your transportation is here." Dr. Thorn says as the sounds of helicopter blades could be heard.
"Where are you taking us." He asked.
"You should be honerd my boy. You'll have an opportunity to joining a great army, just like that silly game you play with cards and dalls."
"There not dalls! They're figurines and you can take you great army and shove it up your..." Nico was cut off by Dr. Thorn befor he could finish his insult.
"Now, now..." Dr. Thorn wornds, "you will change your mind about joining us my boy and if you do not well... There are others uses for half-blood, we have menny monsteris mouths to fead."
Nico was now more tariffed then ever despite the older boy's plan.
A force knocked into the three of thim and then the fight begins.
A real live hero! Nico thinks.. Nico thinks as he watches the boy fight.
