Will
Nico and I had just gotten back to the infirmary it wasn't late we hadn't even had dinner yet but I was already being overcome by sleep. I told Julie to watch over Nico while I took a short nap, she gladly agreed to watch him since Nico hadn't started to fade since the war but I was still making him stay in the infirmary. He said he would just help out around the infirmary cutting bandages and stuff like that.
I gave Nico some quick instructions and told him to ask Julie if he had any questions or need something new to do before I lied down on one of the spare beds in the corner of the infirmary.
I felt myself start to fall asleep but instantly wish I hadn't I plopped right into a nightmare. It was the day my mother had died. I knew this nightmare very well it's the one I have every time I start to get comfortable. I have this dream to know that all I could do was watch, I can't talk, and I can't move either. As soon as I see the monster that killed her the dream started to disappear. I wasn't waking up though everything was started to get dark and black. In an instant everything started to get bright a the form of a God started to appear. Once I could tell what God it was i knew I better be scared, I was standing(dream standing) in front of Nico's father, the God of the Underworld. Hades.
"Will Solace, son of Apollo, i've heard you have a crush on my son and you better not hurt him or I will personally drag you down to the Fields of Punishment but that's not why i'm here. Your idiotic father sent me to give you a prophecy." Hades said in such a monotone voice. HOW THE IN TARTARUS DID HE KNOW I LIKED NICO I HAD BARELY COME TO REALIZE IT MYSELF.
"Don't worry Sir, I wouldn't hurt Nico even if Zeus said he would kill me if I didn't. I would gladly die as long as I know that Nico is safe and okay. I would give my life to see him smile," I said and not just because Hades was personally threatening but because I knew I would do anything for him.
"Good, so are you ready to get the prophecy? Don't worry a piece of paper will show up in your hands after I say it." Hades said with a voice spilling out how much he didn't have confidence in me remembering this prophecy.
"Yeah i'm ready" I shrugged.
"Here is your prophecy
'Tartarus's first survivor, the eldest sun at camp,
shall answer the call,
the one loved most by the only sky son,
the fake will try to stop you,
to the city water and wisdom wanted,
to battle the one whose horn was stolen'.
Have fun son of Apollo" Hades taunted.
I gulped as I was starting to wake up.
I woke with a startle, I just a little having meet Nico father on a pretty sour note. My jump seem to alarm Nico who had apparently hadn't left my side while I sleep. Nico was there is seconds "Will it's ok i'm here,"Nico said soothingly as I tried to calm down my rapid breaths. "Do you wanna talk about it Sunshine?"
"I'm ok, I was just thinking about the quest your father just gave me." I felt like I was being a total deadpan.
"Oh, did he say anything else?" Nico seemed a little worried.
"Yeah, just that he knows that i uh wanna be friends with and if I hurt you that he will personally drag me to the Fields of Punishment but its cool I think he likes me." Nico looked very taken back by this fact.
"Well we better go tell Chiron that you got a quest! I'm so happy for you! You get your first quest!" Nico said grabbing my hand and practically dragging me out of bed.
"Ok, ok, calm down, actually I don't care if you do or not you look so much like you did when you first came to camp like this. You look like someone who hasn't been traumatised," I said although i thought he looked cuter than anybody. After a few seconds of sitting in silence and started walking to the Big House.
I saw the Centar as soon as we walked in, "Chiron, I got a quest."
"Ok, tell me the quest Will." Chiron said impatiently.
"'Tartarus's first survivor, the eldest sun at camp,
shall answer the call,
the one loved most by the only sky son,
the fake will try to stop you,
to the city water and wisdom wanted,
to battle the one whose horn was stolen'.
So yeah that's the prophecy Hades gave me" Will shrugged.
"I'm surprised it's so straightforward" Chiron and Nico said at the same time making me snort.
"Will and I are the people going on the quest, were gonna get a call. Jason is the sky son and he loves Piper most. We're gonna fight Achelous cause Hercules stole one of his horns and then Piper stole his other one but I don't know about the rest." Nico said he was obviously thinking hard.
"I don't know what 'the fake' is but I think 'the city water and wisdom wanted' is Athens because Poseidon and Athena fought over the city." I said.
"Yeah, well now that we figured that out, i'll announce the quest during dinner but until the 'call' we are pretty stuck in place" Chiron said without any show of emotion.
We said our goodbyes and walked out of the Big House hoping that this 'call' would come soon. "So what do you wanna do for now?" Nico asked.
"Well i'm still kinda tired from being disturbed during my nap."
" Okay, well you can go take a nap i'm just gonna go to my cabin and grab my mythomagic cards and a few other things. I'll walk up to the infirmary with my stuff in about 15 minutes' kay?"
"Yeah, that's fine i'll see you later than."
Ok, Bye," and with that Nico started walking away back to cabin 13.
