Nico
I sat at the prow of the ship, nervously glancing back at Andy and Leo. If you set her on fire, I thought, I will kill you. I turned back towards the front. "Annabeth?" I began.
"Yes?" she asked politely.
"Are we almost to camp?"
"I think... about ten more minutes."
I pulled out my Hades Mythomagic statue. It looked nothing like my dad. I still felt like breaking it in half and throwing it over the side. I felt hot tears prickling at the corners of my eyes. Angrily, I stuffed the statue in my pocket and wiped away the tears with my sleeve before they could fall.
I sat down and hid my face in my hands. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I flinched, but didn't move away. "Man, just cry. I promise I won't get pictures and post them on Zeusnet." Leo's voice. I turned around to glare at him.
"Go away," I growled and burst into tears.
"See, man, it feels good to-" I punched him in the stomach.
"Gods, Nico!" Leo muttered, walking away.
"You shouldn't be so hard on him. He's had a hard life."
"I've had a hard life," I snapped.
Annabeth shrugged. "Whatever," and went back to telling the boat where to go. I looked through my backpack, searching for something to do. Nothing.
Suddenly, the boat lurched downwards. Annabeth shouted," Hold on!"
I held onto the side of the boat for dear life as the nose began to point started downwards. We were hurtling straight down then- BANG!- we were upright again. And with a soft thud, we landed.
I threw up over the side. I looked up groggily and fell out onto the damp grass. "Is he okay?" I heard people shouting.
"I'm fine," I mumbled, to no avail. I felt myself being carried to the Big House where I promptly fell asleep.
Leo
I watched with little concern as Death Boy was rushed to the Big House. He would be fine in a short time. It was Andromeda I was worried about. She had a gash in her arm that wouldn't heal after enough ambrosia and nectar to kill a fullgrown water buffalo.
It was small, so it shouldn't have been much of a concern. But not only blood fell from her wound. Sure, we were demigods, but that didn't mean that golden ichor( blood of the gods) flowed in our veins.
I needed to consult Chiron.
