AN: I'm so sorry guys. I got sick and still am, so it was hard to do anything, sorry if this chapter is short, but I'm weak at the moment and just writing this took a lot out of me. Thank you for all the reviews, keep on reviewing. Well the pairing for nico will be! Nico/Thalia the reason is because they are both in the same camp. The pairing for Bianca will be! Bianca/Jason same reason as Nico. Alright not to keep you waiting any longer here is the story.
_Bianca's POV_
I said my goodbyes to Gwen and left to the 1st cohort's barracks. I watched the sun go down and thought about what Nico was doing at the moment. I continued to my barracks and watched as Octavian left dressed in a toga. Giving in to my curiosity I followed him to the senate house. I eavesdropped on the meeting.
"The auguries proclaim that Praetor Jason must go slay the sea monster, he may only bring one companion." Octavian said. I swear I could hear him smirking as he said it.
"I will choose my companion tomorrow, I will make an announcement in the morning." Jason said. The meeting dispersed and I quickly ghosted away into the night.
I lay down in my bunk wondering who he would choose. Darkness closed around me and I fell asleep.
_Nico's POV_
I silently laughed at Jayce, I knew what he held as Perseus had used it on me before. I put the mini-gun into my pocket and continued on towards the junkyard. "We must hurry, we only have two more days." Zoe said.
We arrived at the entrance to the junkyard and I said, "Remember do not touch anything." "Sure, like something will happen." Jayce said. All of us scowled at him and went through the junkyard. We split up to search for the armor, after half an hour I found the helmet and Thalia found the armor.
I grabbed the armor and lifted it effortlessly while Thalia carried the helmet. "We found it, meet at the end." I shouted. As we waited at the end, we felt the earth shake underneath us. Both Thalia and I looked up to see a gigantic robot chasing after Jayce while the hunters shot arrows at it from either side.
I watched as Jayce put his finger into the pipe. Immediately he disappeared from view. We heard shouting and screaming from where Jayce had been before. I laughed as it made him invisible even to himself, it was a prank and a magical tool.
The gigantic robot turned to Zoe and charged swiping its sword in her direction. She nimbly dodged and we ran toward them. I pulled out the mini-gun and tapped it twice. It elongated into the full-sized thing. I held it easily and fired at the giants head. Its face was dented and scratched until it looked like a smashed up tin can.
Slashes appeared on the foot of the giant as invisible Jayce slashed at it. Zoe appeared next to me and fired at the robot. Thalia was behind me, as she didn't want to get in our way.. The other hunter was behind the giant and shooting at its neck.
Finally one of the bullets hit a vital piece of hardware and the giant fell backwards right onto the hunter. "NOOOO!" We all screamed. Zoe fell to the ground while Jayce disabled his invisibility. I watched the scene until I notice the same hunter standing behind Zoe, I laughed as I remembered Perseus' gift to her.
The hunter, Phoebe tapped Zoe on the shoulder. Zoe turned her head to Phoebe and began stuttering from shock, "Bu- Wha- hu-." Phoebe cut her off and said, "The gift the god gave me saved my life." I tapped the mini-gun twice and it shrank and I stashed it in my pocket.
I watched as Jayce held a blueprint in his hands. It was a blueprint for a large tower. When I saw it I immediately understood, he had grabbed it for his girlfriend the Athena girl. I turned around and said to Thalia, "Help Phoebe take Zoe to the exit." I walked to Jayce and said to him, "So you are the one who picked something up."
"I'm so sorry I just wanted to take this for Annabeth she always liked architectural things." He replied. "So you risked everyone's lives just for that?" I said shaking my head in disgust. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean too. I'm so sorry." He said once again.
An: Once again I apologize for the shortness but I got sick and right now as I'm typing this I'm not feeling well. I wanted to update today but this illness attacked me. If I don't update tomorrow I am sorry it's probably because of the sickness. Well Lord of Death and Time out!
