PROLOUGE
Nico woke in a cold sweat,
he hadn't had nightmares this bad since... well since Will had died
he looked around, he was in the infirmary, in a section with a draw around curain
he was sitting on a chair, next to a bed were Ellana lay...
he stared at her
...was she...
...surely......she couldn't be...
...dead...
suddenly she opened her eyes...

ELLANA`S P.O.V
everything was dark, everything was cold, everything was quiet, except from the whispering of the dead
Asphodel
immediately I knew that's were I was,
how did I get here?
...im dead
but I don't remember the journey here
maybe the gods brought me here
suddenly out of the mist appeared a man
Hades
he looked at me darkly
"it is not your time yet" he says
suddenly my eyes snapped open
I looked over across and saw Nico sitting next to my bed, his wrist bound
he must have saved me...
oh no what have I done
"I`m sorry" I mumbled, (it took a lot of effort just to open my mouth)
he stared at me "why?"
"you injured your hand"
"...and"
"I shouldn't have done what I did, I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking straight"
"look..." he took my hand in an unusual show of affection "I don't think I`ll ever be able to love you, but you are my friend...and that's a rare think for me, just please don't try anything like that again"
"I wont,...I swear on the river Styx"
he smiled
and stood "I'm going to go get some food, ill be back in 5, don't you dare move" he walked towards the curtain, paused and smiled over his shoulder before adding "doctors orders"
then he ducked under the curtain and was gone.

NICOS P.O.V
I tramped over to the pavilion but all that was left were pomegranates so I took 2 back for Ellana and me
but when I came back she was standing up
"Ellana be carful, your still weak"
"no I'm not, Artemis just popped up and said that it`s official I'm now a goddess I'm the princess of the minor gods but I can continue to live my normal life because in this form I'm mortal but if I ever need to transform I just raise my hands above my head and say '' moon bertoni '' and then I`ll transform"
"o.k.. take a breath... since your all better now I guess we should go back to our cabin"

later that night
Nico tossed from side to side
suddenly he sat bolt up straight his eyes wide open his mouth forming a terrible scream his legs quivering
Ellana woke up and looked over she saw Nico sitting up in his bed she leapt out of bed and ran over she shook Nico
"wake up Nico wake up ..please"
he thrashed and grabbed her by the throat
"WAKE UP"
Nico snapped out of the trance and stared
then he saw Ellana neck
"did I hurt you"
"just a bit" she smiled grimly "some bad nightmare huh"
he looked down ashamed "yeah"
"here" Ellana straitened his cushions and gently pushed him down onto the cushions "close your eyes"
she began to sing a lullaby the same one that had been in Nico`s dream her voice was beautiful delicate and sweet
oh my angel your mothers jewel
you lie there still as a Styx pool
when the stars begin to fall
you will hear the darkness call
when you here that whispered sound
you will know that you are found
a golden huntress guards over you
my little angel my words are true
Nico slowly fell asleep and then Ellana fell asleep next to him
in the morning they would discover this
but for now they sleep in peace
