"Well?" Hades demanded. "I don't have all day!"

I turn from the girl, looking at my father spitefully. "Who did this?" I whisper. "Who did what, Nico?" He asks, starting to sound bored. "Who authorized for BIANCA TO START A NEW LIFE WITHOUT TELLING ME?!" He rolls his eyes. "Is that all this is about?" My "Yes." comes through gritted teeth. "Oh. Well, in that case, I must be going." He heads towards the door. "But you haven't answered my question!" I say. "Later" he answers flippantly. ARGH but then... what'll happen to– "But... but what about the prisoner?" I stutter.

"Persephone!" Hades yells. My step-mom pops up. "Yes?" "Tell Nico to watch the prisoner for me." My eyes grow big. "WHAT?!" "Will do." She says with a smirk. "Nico–" "I heard, I heard." I look nervously at the prisoner... I mean, I look boldly at her without a fear in the world.

She smirks, happy, it seems, at my uncomfortableness. "Well, death eater, time for you to babysit me!" "I'm not a death eater" I grumble.

Ok, I AM SO SO SORRY I HAVE NOT UPDATED RECENTLY. I am trying my HARDEST to update every two days or so, starting... now. I also apologize for the shortness of the chapters! Ok, I really have to go, so, bye!
