Nico's P.O.V
" What are y'all doing here!?" I demanded. After i said good night to Ebony and she said bye to everyone, I instantly pounced on Annabeth and Grover with questions as to why they're here.
" We where investigating the large amount of mist at this school to see if a demigod was here." Annabeth said.
" And we found our answer but we expected to find more demigods with how strong the mist and scent is." Grover stated looking at me.
I sighed, time to tell them, i thought to myself.
" I'm not the only demigod here." I stated giving them a look.
" Who else is a -" Annabeth cut off staring shocked at Nico.
" Ebony." We all said at the same time. Annabeth started pacing back and forth muttering.
" But the scent and mist is still to thick for there too be only two demigods, there has to be more." Annabeth stated frustrated.
" Its only us, and i know its Ebony because monsters always try to attack her. That's why she's here, they think she's insane." I ,sadly, stated to them. I walked over to the couch and put my head in my hands, clearly frustrated.
" And she also had a very, very, strong scent. It was so strong it spread all across the whole campus, i thought it was a whole bunch of demigods but i guess we're wrong." Grover mumbled quietly.
" Does she know some Greek Mythology?" Annabeth asked me. I laughed a full blown laugh before answering,
" Some is a big understatement on what she knows about Greek Mythology. She absolutely loves Greek Mythology! She can anything you want to know about it to, i wouldn't be surprised if she knew more about it than you, Annabeth." Grover laughed at that before ,all of a sudden, he had a horrified look on his face.
" Please tell me we don't have another geek freak on our hands." He said mortified. I laughed, about to start rolling on the floor.
" Trust me, she not a geek freak that studies all the time. She makes straight A's but she doesn't study alot." I said giving Annabeth a pointed look while she was in deep thought, not even listening to us.
" I wish a certain someone was like that." Grover mumbled quietly.
" Hey, i was thinking and why are you here? Is this where you disappeared to after the 2nd Titan War three years ago?" Annabeth asked. Im 16 right now while Annabeth is 19 along with Percy.
" Yeah, i got Dad to enroll me here so i didn't have to stay at camp. I kind of felt left out when i was there." I stated a little sad.
" Why? You had your friends, Thalia, Percy, Grover, and me." She asked me.
" People left me out because of who my father was." I stated coldly.
" Oh." Annabeth mumbled quietly.
" I've got to go. What time is it Grover?" I asked Grover who had a watch.
" 4:31" Grover answered looking at his watch.
" Okay Im going to mine and Ebony's room, Im going to take a nap until its dinner time." i said hugging Annabeth and giving Grover a one armed hug before walking away.
I walked down the almost empty halls that had the occasional person walking to their dorm room or some other place. I finally found my dorm room and walked in to see Ebony passed out on the top bunk bed.
When you get your room then you and your roommate get to choose to have bunk beds or regular beds. Ebony and I decided bunk beds because they took up a lot less room. She also wanted the top bunk while i wanted the bottom so it worked out perfectly.
She was asleep with the covers on the floor and she had a arm hanging of the bed. I walked over to her and slowly put her arm back on the bed while pushing her body over to the middle of the bed softly. She mumbled something i couldn't understand. I laughed silently while putting the cover back on her.
I softly got in my bed trying not to wake Ebony up before rolling over and a thinking about what an eventful day it was. The last thing i thought about before going to sleep was,
" Am I ever going to have have a peaceful life?"
I woke up to somebody shaking me hard. I pushed them away before rolling over and trying to go back to sleep. I heard a shriek before a crashing sound and a yell of frustration. It was silent until something jumped on me, crushing me. I opened my eyes before quickly closing them again because of the bright light.
" Wake up!" I heard the thing crushing me say, before it slapped me. I groaned before sitting up while the thing on me sat up but was still sitting on me.
" Whaa?" I grumbled before opening my eyes again. " I was sleeping."
Ebony rolled her eyes, " Really? I just thought you were pretending to be dead." She said sarcastically.
She got up before looking at me pointedly. " What?" I said before laying down and rubbing my eyes.
" Oh no you don't!" she yelled pulling me back up.
" We've got to go to dinner in..." She looked at her watch. " 13 minutes." She stated looking back up at me.
" Okay," I said running my finger through my hair, " Done."
She rolled her eyes and laughed before turning serious. Does she have mood swings or something? " You better not make me sit with the Girl Squad."
I held back my laugh before replying " You never know..." I trailed off. She growled threateningly. Man, her growl rivals Lupa's!
" Okay, okay!" I said raising my hands in surrender. " I won't make you sit with them."
She nodded approvingly. " Good, now lets go so we won't be last in line." She ordered.
" Yes, my lady." I said bowing. She smacked me upside the head before walking away. I snickered before catching up to her.
We walked in silence until i started humming ' I Knew You Were Trouble' by Taylor Swift knowing Ebony hated the song and Taylor Swift herself. She had an emotionless face but i saw she was about to explode. Her face slowly became red by the seconds before, " Would you ( choose cuss word) stop!" She demanded.
She walked away before i could reply. " Okay, now i feel bad." I thought to myself. I ran and caught up with her before stopping her by hugging her tightly.
" I sorry for aggravating so much." I mumbled into her hair. " What's also bothering you? I know even I can't aggravate you that much." I stated holding her at arms length to see her close to tears.
" Nothing." She whispered looking at the floor.
My grip on her shoulders tightened slightly. " Please, tell me?" I begged her quietly.
She continued to look at the floor until I put a hand under her chin " Please? You know you can trust me." I said.
" Can we just talk about it later?" She asked desperately.
I sighed, " Fine. You've got to promise though, that you will tell me and won't hold back on the truth." I demanded.
" Deal..." She said hesitantly before stating, " We've got to get going now or we'll be at the end of the line."
" Okay." We took of running to the Cafeteria. Good thing everyone was in the Cafeteria already or we would have gotten some weird looks because of what just happened.
After we made it to the Cafeteria and got in line i saw Annabeth and Grover waving their hands like crazy trying to get our attention. I bumped Ebony on the shoulder and pointed to over to them giving her a questioning look.
" If you asking me if i want to sit over there then, sure." She said before putting her food on her tray and walking over to the cash register. I put my food on my tray before following her and paying for my food while she waited. After I finished paying, I led the way to the table Annabeth and Grover were sitting at.
" What's up?" Grover asked us. He shouldn't have asked that...
Ebony smirked at him. "...you know, the sky." Ebony stated nonchalantly, leaning back in her chair with her black Converses on the table.
All of us rolled our eyes at her sarcasm. She just grinned with her eyes closed still balancing on the two back legs of the chair." What? I had no idea!" Grover replied sarcastically while rolling his eyes with a smile on his face.
Ebony laughed before sitting normally and starting to eat her dinner. We all started to eat and settled into a comfortable silence. I was just about done when i heard a loud banging sound coming from across the room. I looked over there and saw a Minoutar running straight for us while knocking over tables to get to us. Ebony looked at it before returning to eating like its the most normal thing ever.
" Do you see that?" Grover asked her astonished that she just brushed it off like it was nothing.
" Yeah." She said bluntly. " I don't know what you see but I see a Greek mythical Minoutar."
Annabeth and Grover looked at her like she was crazy before Annabeth pulled out her weapon and Grover pulling her out of her chair much to her confusion and ran with her out the door to safety.
Annabeth and I got in a defensive position right before the Minoutar attacked. He charged at us as fast as he could. Right as soon as he was 3 feet from us we took off in opposite directions. It hit the Cafeteria wall, succeeding in crumbling the wall into pieces.
It roared before charging me again but right before it got to me I ran for the nearest shadow and shadow traveled to where I was on his back. I got my knife and stabbed him in the head before jumping off his back. I backed away ,after it turned to dust, to Annabeth who was helping everyone out of the room and leading them outside.
" What did they see?" I asked Annabeth quietly as she lead out a 13 year old. I think his name was Cole.
" I don't know but i heard two girl talking about a rabid dog so, i can assume that that was what they saw." Annabeth said before dragging me to the door. " We've got to go find Ebony and Grover quickly."
" Okay, we've got to go and find Ebony's father after that. He knows about the Gods." I said catching up to Annabeth. Jack knew about the Gods because I told him and proved it to him once I was sure Ebony was a demigod. He said that it made since because Ebony has always seen monsters and strange things always happened to her. He knew about me being a demigod and he also knows my history with the Gods.
Once we made it out the door we found Grover and Ebony in a heated argument down the hall from the Cafeteria. We ran down the hall and i grabbed Ebonys hand and ran to the Main Room knowing he was there or at his girlfriend's office. All of a sudden Ebony stopped running.
" Come on!" I shouted pulling her hand.
" No." She said hesitantly.
" Why?" I asked her impatiently ready to get her father and go to camp.
" Because, y'all won't tell me why your acting like this." She stated still refusing to move.
" We can't tell you until we get to camp." Grover told her.
She sighed, " Fine. Whatever." She said frustrated. We took off running without anymore interruptions, thankfully.
Once we made it to the Main Room I immediately started to look for Jack, who was sitting across the room on one of the couches with Victoria, his girlfriend, who is also the Principle. I pointed over to him and we ran over to him.
" Jack, it's time." Is all i said when we finally got to him. He looked shocked but nodded and said goodbye to Victoria who was confused as to what I was talking about.
" Okay Nico, let's go. Quickly." He said walking away while getting his keys out of his pocket.
