Hey guys I know it's been forever since I've updated this story but I've been busy. So this is starting after the big scene the Stolls caused and Percy, Nico and Thalia are in the Hades cabin. I know they seem a bit OOC and I'm sorry about that but it seemed easier to do it that way. I'm not really sure how I feel about Annabeth at the moment so she and Percy are going to be having a very casual relationship in this story, but I may just have it end for a while to build up part of the story. I think I'm going to have the majority of this story in Percy's POV but when they fight I might split it up.

Chapter 3- We Discuss Our Options

Percy's POV

Once we were safely inside the Hades cabin we all went over and sat down on Nico's Bed.

"So what do we do now?" I asked. "I mean we pretty much just freaked out the entire camp back there and we have to leave for Olympus tomorrow morning." My cousins looked at me for a few minutes until Nico broke the silence.

"Well the two of you could always stay here for the night then I can shadow travel us to the Empire state building." He suggested. I looked to Thalia to see what she thought and found a small smile on her face.

"Thanks Nico that really means a lot to me." Thalia told him as she gave him a bone crushing hug.

"Yeah, me too man." I frowned. "At least some people don't care who my father is." Thalia looked at me questioningly then asked. "Who's giving you a hard time about your father?"

"Oh just most of the new campers." I sighed. "They think that because I fought against Kronos in the war and because I turned down immortality I'm some kind of freak or a monster that they need to stay away from. Sometimes I just want to be a normal demigod." I sighed and sat father back on the bed. Thalia nodded in understanding and Nico patted my back.

"Yeah I get what you're saying man. It's the same for me what with my father and all I don't exactly scream normal." He said. I laughed and ruffled his hair earning a 'hey' from him and a laugh from Thalia.

"So we stay here for the night. But I still want to know what we are going to do before we end up not seeing each other forever." Thalia complained. I looked at her and she glared at me. "What?" she yelled.

I laughed. "Nothing I was just wondering where the aggressive and fun loving cousin I knew or was she just an act?" I teased her. "Oh shut up Percy and let's just go to bed already." Thalia grumbled.

Nico and I laughed but then, seeing that she was serious lay back on the bed, with Thalia in the middle and both Nico and I on the edges of the bed, and fell asleep. I don't think any of us dreamed that night.

Ok that's all for now and I know it's short but that's all I can think of for the moment. Please review.
