Chapter 2: Nina

Nina's POV

I'm 7 months pregnant. I'm married to Fabian Rutter. I'm 20 years old. We moved into a rural New York/ Long Island area close to camp Half-Blood. We have a big old farm house. I'm having a baby girl.

"Fabian, I found a good girl name." I shouted down the hall from my office.

"What is it?" he asked

"Natalia Marie." I said

"That's a beautiful name." he said as he walked into my office where I write my songs and play my guitar.

"Amber, Mara, Joy and Patrica are coming over later." I told him as I walked out and into our room. "They're bringing their kids so you're babysitting." I told him and smiled. Just then my phone rang and the doorbell rang at the same time. "Can you get the door?" I asked Fabian

"Yeah, sure." he said and went to the door. Then I looked at my caller ID. Percy Jackson. My brother

"what do you want?" I asked coldly

"It's Annabeth, shes in the hospital. I'm worried."

"Why?" I asked

"She's 7 months pregnant! That's why." he said and I sighed

"Fine, What hospital?"

"St. Anthony's, and EVERYONE is here."

"ok." I said and hung up the phone. Great now I get to deal with the demigods again. I grabbed my bag and headed for the mud room to get my keys.

"Nina, where are you going?" Amber asked me

"St. Anthony's hospital."

"Why?"

"My old friend is there and so is... my brother." I mumbled the last part so I hoped they didn't hear.

"You have a brother and never told us?"

"no, because we never got along and the whole story doesn't matter now. I really have to go now."

"We'll come with you."

"Fine, but I warn you they're a little... Unusual." I said and we all piled into the car and I took off. When we got there Thalia, Nico, Piper, and Jason all ran up to me.

"she might not make it." Thalia said through stifled sobs.

"I'll try my hardest, but can you keep my husband and friends occupied until I come out?"

"yeah, what ever you need me to do so you can save Annabeth."

"thank you so much." I said and went to her room.

"how is she?" I asked Percy and he jumped.

"good, I guess, are you here to do some sort of magic on her and the baby?"he asked nervously. Seriously for a guy who defeated Kronous , he should be braver. But she was his Achilles tendon.

"ok, what exactly happened?" I asked

"she was coming to get me and she screamed and collapsed. We gave her a tiny square of ambrosia. She didn't wake up. Chiron is coming soon."

"ok, keep the doctors out, I need to sense the baby's aura if I'm going to help he."

"ok." he said and went to scout the door. I leaned over Annabeth and felt her forehead, even in a coma she was still worried for the baby. Then I felt her stomach, I could feel the baby's dying aura.

"Annabeth has to go into labor soon so that I can heal the baby." I said to Percy.

"Is she going to be alright?" he asked me worriedly.

"yeah, but there's a catch."

"what is it?" he asked. Its like he'd do anything for the baby and Annabeth.

"You can't keep the baby." I said as regret settled in my mouth.
