Chapter 1: Shadow Travel Problems


My second crossover fanfic! :D Once again, it is a just a test fic because I see no one has made anything like it. It is consisted of two of my favorite fandoms: PJO and Kagerou Project~ Just like my first crossover (which was written with my brother, Riduu) I want to see how many people like these two fandoms as much as I do! And for the second time, I'm writing without Riduu! Haha.

I got this idea while playing this thing my friend and I play. It's called the "Dream Game". Long story. Point is, we played, and ended up with crazy results of Nico fighting Kuroha XD And thus, this fanfic was born!

I'm gonna guess that not a lot of people are gonna read this, but I'm supposing that's OK. It's not a popular thing. But I hope for some reviews guys :)

Hope you like this plot and story!


How is it that whenever he wanted things to turn out right, they turned out wrong?

All Nico di Angelo wanted was to be able to have a peaceful and quiet date with his sort-of boyfriend Will. Was that too much to ask? But he insisted to shadow traveling, and now, not only did he have a traumatized son of Apollo, but they've also ended up in a place too far away from their prime destination.

"Are you sure you don't want to take a flying chariot?" Will asked nervously earlier that day when they were about to find a good place for their picnic.

"You know animals hate me," Nico said stubbornly. "Shadow traveling is much easier. Plus, if we're going to be dating, we need to get used to the things we like doing."

Will had to chuckle at that. "Fine," he said finally. "But as soon as we get this date done, we take some pegasi, hop on board, and take a few minutes flight over Long Island."

It took Nico a while to answer. "Deal."

Then he took hold of Will's hand and let the shadows take them to wherever they planned on taking them.

Bad life decision.

They stumbled as they touched the ground. As the shadow disappeared, Nico tried to regain his balance; but Will wasn't so lucky. "Ow," he groaned, face flat on the floor. Trying not to laugh, Nico helped him up.

Then he frowned at his surroundings. They appeared to be in a city. People were walking around, being noisy as they passed by. There weren't many people and the place wasn't that lively, but Nico couldn't help but feel like he had a bad sensation about it. "What the Hades…" he muttered.

Will looked around in confusion. "Where are we?" he asked.

"This isn't exactly where I planned on going to. I was thinking somewhat like a cemetery or something."

Will almost laughed. "You were planning on taking us to a cemetery on our date?"

"You know, like one of those out-in-the-open kinds with the sun shining down on us." The blonde just rolled his eyes.

"Maybe we can ask someone where we are," Nico suggested. A short but older woman with brown hair passed by them and he tapped her shoulder. "Excuse me, miss, can you tell us what place this is?"

The woman stared at him. "Nani?" she said.

"Oh gods," Will said nervously. "Please don't tell me we're in Japan…"

The woman seemed to recognize that word and nodded quickly. "Nihon, Nihon!" she replied.

"Ah, yes," Nico said slowly. "Where in 'Nihon'?"

She thought for a moment before saying just as slowly, "Mekakucity."

"Mekakucity?" Will frowned. "What kind of place is that?"

Nico politely waved a hand to the woman. "Thank you," he said carefully. "We're good now." She was still confused but she nodded anyway and continued walking.

"Why did we have to end up in Japan?" Will groaned.

"The question is, how," Nico said. "Because I definitely didn't think about taking us here."

"Maybe something's up. Maybe something happened that made us come here?"

"Like what?"

The blonde shrugged. "Monster? Gaea again?"

"No, Gaea's gone for good. We were sure of that. Maybe a monster, like you said." Biting his lip, Nico added, "Come on. Let's try calling my sister."

That, Will obliged to. The duo walked around for a bit until they found a deserted water fountain. Thankfully, no one seemed to pay attention as Nico turned it on. Water droplets started spouting out of it, creating a tiny cloud of mist. Light caught in it, making a perfect tiny rainbow. Lucky for Nico, he always carried some extra drachmas with him.

"Oh, Iris, Goddess of the Rainbow, accept my offering," he said as he flipped the coin in the mist. "Show me Hazel Levesque."

Almost immediately, the mist altered itself to show Nico's sister carrying a box towards something. He couldn't tell where she was but the younger girl noticed him in the mist immediately. She dropped her box and went up to him with a smile. "Hey, Nico," she greeted. "How are you? How's the date?"

"Not going well," he admitted. "Somehow, we ended up in Japan."

"Why are you guys there?"

"We have no idea," Will answered. "But we have to get out of here before I may find my dad and listen to his haikus!"

"Um…OK…Hazel, what are you doing?"

"Frank and I are helping Percy and Annabeth move some of their stuff to Rome. They did say they planned on staying there for some times."

Nico nodded, remembering. The couple agreed to take college together and live a life in the Roman city. He had to admit, he started to miss them.

"So, we're in his cabin right now," Hazel said. Just then, Frank appeared in the picture. "Hey guys." He greeted.

"Hey," Will said quickly. "Now, can someone tell us why we are here?"

"We don't know, you two," Hazel said, frowning. "We didn't even know where you planned to go."

"What if your dad brought you there?" Frank suggested.

Nico frowned. "My dad?" Everyone knew Nico's godly parent was Hades (Pluto, if it was for Hazel), god of death and riches; and the reason why Nico knew how to shadow travel. "Why would my dad bring us to Japan? He's a Greek god!"

"Maybe there's some trouble over there," Hazel said. "You should try finding out. Maybe Dad needs help."

"Great," Will mumbled. "More gods that need to help of half-bloods."

"Good luck, guys!" Frank said. Hazel smiled and waved a hand through the mist. Then they were cut off.

"Sorry I had to get you into this," Nico apologized.

Will shrugged. "A demigod can never have a normal life; much less go on a normal date." With a smile, he brought his dagger out. "At least we get to do this together." Nico managed a smile as he brought his out his Stygian ice sword out.

Now they had to find out what his father wanted.


The two demigods started walking around the city, trying to find out where the "trouble" may be. Thanks to Nico and the extra lessons he had with Chiron, he was able to manipulate the Mist so people wouldn't see them with weapons; although they doubted it was needed. There weren't many people around. "One can never be too careful."

"What monster would even come here?" Nico wondered aloud. "Do you think a half-blood lives in Japan?"

"Why would anyone have a Japanese kid?"

"Frank is Chinese-Canadian."

"…Touché."

Just then, the two came across a building. A mall. It was so tall and it seemed that most people of the city were spending their time there. It looked like the most crowded place in the area. "Perfect," Nico grumbled sarcastically.

"Come on," Will said, stepping forward.

"Whoa, wait. Why here?"

"Well, I'm pretty sure most criminals would want to plan their robbing or terrorizing in a place with a lot of people, right?" He frowned. "Or is it the other way around? Either way, it's best to check it out and start in the mall." Without listening to Nico protest, he walked on.

"Yep," Nico sighed. "Just perfect."

He reluctantly followed the blonde inside and immediately regretted it. People were forming crowd in there. Noisy, shouting mortals just kept shopping, walking around like it was no big deal. Nico grunted and struggled, muttering about people being like cows until Will grabbed onto his hand. Relaxing a bit, they walked through the crowd together, hand in hand.

"Still think there's trouble here?" Nico panted as they found free space.

"Why not?" Will shrugged. "Anything could happen. Especially since one could practically draw attention in a place like this."

Nico had to roll his eyes at that. "Come on! What could possibly happen in—"

Suddenly, there was a scream. The two whirled around and found mortals trying to run away from something. It looked like they were getting out of a shop of some sort. Whatever happened, they knew it wasn't good.

Will looked at Nico expectantly, a smug smile on his face. "Not a word," he warned.

Weapons in hand, they charged inside.


Chapter one everyone! I apologize that it is short. I'd like to formally inform you people that I plan on altering the original Kagerou Project plot just a bit so it can fit this story. I also apologize if there will be some OOCness because to be honest, I suck at getting character personalities right XD I also want people to know that this fic is just for fun and crack! No hates please. I also, won't be updating for a while because I have exams tomorrow, but I really hope you enjoyed this! I understand that most people don't think these two fandoms can go together (that's what they said about my Vocaloid x Adventure Time fic!) but please do give it a chance :) Again, reviews and some favorites are appreciated~ See you soon!
