I woke up in the same room I had found myself in the first time I had come here.
"Nico? Nico, are you awake?" I saw Silvanus looking at me.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes, but what happened?"
"Your sister said you told her you had heard a buzzing noise, and then you fainted."
"Is Bianca okay?"
"Yes she is, but…" Then Silvanus laughed nervously.
"Silvanus, what happened?"
"Well, um… ergh…"
"Who died?" Silvanus looked at me oddly.
"How did you know?"
"The buzzing noise in my ear, I know what it means. It means…"
"Ugh, Nico look." He pointed to a shape above my head. It was a gray sphere that had a picture of a black helm in it.
"Nico, do you know what that symbol means?"
"Yes, I do know what that symbol means."
"How?"
"I just know, and the buzzing in my ear meant someone died, right?"
"Yes, someone died."
"Who is it?"
"Well, Sala… died."
"Really?" I didn't believe it. I couldn't. I could tell be the way Silvanus sad it that more than one person died. Hopefully it wasn't Bianca.
"Who else died?" I asked sadly. Bianca couldn't be dead! If she was I was… I felt a tear go down my cheek.
"No," In whispered to myself. "Bianca is not dead." But my voice stuttered, I didn't sound so certain either.
"I'm sorry to tell you this Nico, but Bi…"
"NO!!" I ran out of the room, but after my 10 step I fell over. I couldn't run not when Bianca was dead! Bianca couldn't have left me alone. SHE CARED ABOUT ME! At least I thought she did.
"Nico! Nico, come back!" Silvanus ran up to me.
"Nico, Bianca's not dead… exactly. She was taken by a Kindly One as she shot an arrow toward a cabin." I was happy, but at the same time I wasn't. Bianca wasn't dead as far as Silvanus knew, but she was kidnapped.
"Nico I'm sure she is okay."
"I know she is still alive but where is she?"
"No one knows, but Nico… I think you should get a prophecy. I sense that you will live long enough to meet some of my relatives that have not been born."
"NO I WANT BIANCA BACK!" By this time I was in hysterics. My sister was probably dead right now. And it was my entire fault.
"Nico," Silvanus took a deep breath before continuing. "Nico, you a part of a prophecy that Chiron once got, This has something to do with it but the rest I can tell you not. All I can say is YOU'LL be a hero, Greater than most demigods that have ever lived. But your future is unclear, although I can say you will make great friends, but powerful enemies too."
"Why me?" I moaned. Silvanus must have thought I looked horrible and felt horrible. He was right if he was thinking that. Have you ever felt so miserable that you wanted to die? 'Cause that's how I was feeling right now, but I knew Bianca had to be found. I wanted to go find her but Silvanus said I couldn't go. He was most likely afraid something bad might happen.
"Silvanus?"
"What Nico," He answered.
"Can you get me a change of clothes?" He looked at me like I should have asked sooner. I was still wearing my uniform because at school we weren't allowed to trash it. Here we were. While Silvanus l jumped into a comfy chair and thought of my past and of my future. I thought of what could happen. I thought of how long I and Bianca would live. I thought of why we were so important. I thought of Bianca most of all. I thought she must be alive. I thought she was safe. But I knew that we would rescue her. That was the most important thing. Rescue Bianca…Rescue Bianca… Rescue Bianca….ZZZZZZZZZ.
