Welcome to our first…no… (insert the number of the story here) story! This story was made up first by Craz then I asked her if I could use it in my personal account, she said yes. Later on I told her about the continuation, She said she'd do the (insert explanation here) and I said "why don't we do it instead onn our shared account" we agreed to the…uh…agreement!
Percy scanned the area. Why was Percy scanning the area you ask? For Nico. His father, Hades, needed Percy to pass a very crucial message to Nico. Hades hadn't exactly said what he needed Nico for but by the sound of the Lord of the Underworld's voice, it was probably worth skipping a session of Ancient Egyptian with Annabeth. Maybe Nico was to be used as a footstool for Persephone or something.
"NICO?" Percy called out again, hoping for some kind of response.
Silence.
Hades was going to kill him.
"Are you sure you're not Anubis in disguise?" Sadie asked placing her hands on her hips.
Nico ran his hands through his hair in frustration, "I already told you, I'm. Not. HIM."
"Are you sure?" Sadie raised an eyebrow as if daring him to drag her to the pits of Tartarus out of frustration.
"YES." Nico sighed.
Sadie rolled her eyes, "Well, I still don't buy it."
"For the millionth time, I said I'M NOT ANUBIS!"
"Are not."
"Are too."
"Are not."
"Are too."
"Are not."
"Are too."
"Are not."
"Are too."
By this time their voices rose.
"ARE NOT."
"ARE TOO."
"ARE NOT."
"ARE TOO."
"ARE NOT."
"ARE TOO."
"ARE NOT."
"ARE TOO."
At this point, two very annoyed people named Nico and Sadie were yelling at each other at the top of their lungs.
"ARE NOT!."
"ARE TOO!"
"ARE NOT!"
"ARE TOO!"
"ARE NOT!."
"ARE TOO!"
"ARE NOT!"
"ARE TOO!"
"SHUT UP!" A voice shouted from the doorway.
Sadie and Nico turned around to see a red faced Zia Rashid in the door way. "Why do you always have too fight over such little things?" Zia exclaimed.
"It's probably what you do with Carter when nobody's looking anyway," Sadie muttered under her breath.
Zia heard it, turned as red as a tomato, but said, "Why are you fighting anyways?"
"It's not my fault I remind Sadie of her boyfriend." Nico mumbled too softly for Zia but Sadie heard it.
"He's not my boyfriend!" She shouted, infuriated with Nico's comment.
Zia rolled her eyes, "Here it goes again." Sighing in defeat, Zia walked away.
Hades paced around his throne room, waiting for Nico to arrive. After what seemed like hours (actually just 10 minutes) Hades decided to contact Percy and ask him himself why the delay.
"Percy,why is my son not here yet?" Hades asked impatiently, circling the throne room.
Percy muttered, "I can't find him. He's probably arguing with Sadie, somewhere around this huge mansion. That's what they've been doing pretty much since the Kanes invited us to spend summer here."
"Speak up boy. No one is here to wonder why the god of the Dead is contacting you."
"I can't find him" He said louder. "This mansion's bigger than you think, you know."
"WHAT? What do you mean 'can't find him'? He should be somewhere!" Hades whipped his hand across the Mist, so Percy would not see the dread on his face.
"Nico still has to try on the tux, find a best man, and learn how to live with his wife. He also ha- " Hades murmured.
"Wait." Percy interrupted, "Did you just say wife?"
Hades waved his hand dismissively, "Details,details..."
Percy just stared at Hades in disbelief.
"What?" Hades snapped, "Haven't you ever seen a god think before?"
"Fine," Percy muttered. "I'll go look for him if it's that important that Nico has to get a wife and see you."
Hades nodded absentmindedly and ended the Iris message.
Percy turned around and sighed, he was going to find Nico wherever he was around this mansion.
Sadie stomped out of the room and said, "I'm going to my room now!", over her shoulder towards Nico.
"Fine, I don't really care and do you really have too declare everything you do to the whole world!" Nico took out his sword and started to sharpen it.
When Sadie entered her room, she plopped onto her bed and stared up at the ceiling with a blank expression. She wished that they, meaning Carter and her, had never invited Percy, Nico and Annabeth to the 21st nome. Other than the fact that Nico and she disagreed on everything from being Anubis to the shape of a certain piece of gelatin, The demigods just had to go on and on about how they saved the world from Kronos, the evil Titan of time. Now the trainees preferred to listen to their travels rather than their lessons. This was going to be a hard summer.
Was she jealous? Okay, maybe a little. She and Carter had already saved the world from certain forms of evil and the trainees were fond of listening to it but lately they were swarming around the demigods.
Felix suddenly burst into the room, interrupting Sadie's thoughts. "Hey, Sadie!" he said, excitedly. "You'll never guess what I found! I'm going to show it to Percy!"
She sighed. Ever since Felix had found out that Percy was a son of Poseidon, Felix had started begging Percy to take him to the Antartica to see penguins. Only another reason she regretted inviting them here.
She put on a fake smile and turned towards the overly excited 9-year old, "Okay, what did you find?"
Felix started going hyper again. "I FOUND A-"
BOOM!
Sadie paled. "Oh, God," she muttered under her breath. "What's happening?"
Annabeth stared down at the book, trying to decipher the words. Even though she had a Ancient Egyptian-Greek dictionary she still couldn't answer the question that kept annoying her these past few days.
"Hey, are you sure you don't want help?" Cleo asked.
"No, it's okay," She answered absentmindedly.
Cleo glanced at Annabeth then to the door. She bit her lip and hesitantly said, "Okay." before she ran towards the other trainees. After Cleo went away, Annabeth took out a huge, dusty book from under her desk and started to read.
Annabeth finally decided she would never be able to decode it that day so she threw down the book and walked out of the library.
After about 5 minutes of pure frustration...
Nico thought Sadie overreacted sometimes. So he got really annoyed that she was a really brat-
"NICO!" Someone yelled, tackling him to the floor, hard.
"Jeez," Nico muttered, "Haven't you ever heard of knocking?" He turned around, ready to hit whoever tackled him.
It turns out it only Percy and his cousin was panting, hard. "Where have you been?" Percy choked out.
"Oh, I just came from London and had tea with Prince William and Kate," Nico said sarcastically. "Where do you think I've been? On the Moon?"
"Uh..." Percy looked down at the marble floor.
"Nevermind" Nico waved his hand dismissively. Like father like son Percy thought.
"So what made you tackle me?" Nico grumbled.
"Your dad told me to tell you he needs you in the Underworld." And also to get married Percy cringed at the thought but decided to shut up. Nico would find out soon enough—whether he wanted to or not.
For a second there, Percy thought he saw a sudden spark of interest appeared in Nico's eyes then the spark in his eyes disappeared and returned to his natural bored looking brown eyes. "Why?"
" I dunno. He didn't tell me" Percy raised his hands in...(insert that certain word here)...and added the last part in a rush because he saw this dark look in Nico's eyes.
"Fine I'll go to him" Nico muttered. He ran towards the wall and was sucked into the shadows.
