A/N: I feel like I have been going a bit too extreme with the Christian side and I don't want people to think that I am anti-Christian or I don't like Christians or that I think that they are like this. I want to say that I know most Christians are NOT like this and that Christianity is not so rigid but I am just taking an extreme of extremes for the point of the story.

Chapter 10:

Well to Hell we Shall Ride

Percy knew he screwed up pretty bad but he didn't know how to fix it. Nico was ignoring him while the camp tried to come up with a plan to get Nico's body back. He talked to Piper and Hazel trying to include himself in the planning process but everyone seemed determined to not include him at all. It was getting to the point that he would snap at anyone who tried to talk to him. Life couldn't be more cruel.

So now he was standing in the middle of New York waiting for the bus to take him to the town where Nico is forced to stay. He was going to talk to Billy and try to get him to let go of the body. He was going to get help from Hades whether the god wanted to help or not. The bus finally rolled over only to find the Anti-Apollo sitting in the seat next to his.

"Apollo?" Percy wondered aloud.

"I'm not Apollo," Anti-Apollo answered with a bored expression.

"Oh? Just like the not-but-is Aphrodite?" Percy asked making Anti-Apollo smirk.

"I'm just going to tell you since no one is bothering to listen to you, which I'm sorry by the way because its my doing, that you won't find Nico's body in that little town," Anti-Apollo snickered giving Percy a creepy smile.

"What where is he then?" Percy growled.

"Well you are about to join him," was all Anti-Apollo said as he grabbed Percy's wrist sending them far away from the bus. Percy wanted to cry for he found himself in the middle of Tartarus.

Nico finally realized that Percy has been left out of the loop. He was angry at the son of Poseidon but he knew the guy was trying to help to fix what he has done. Nico already forgave Percy for not believing that Nico was out there because in a way he would have not known that Nico wasn't himself.

"Has anyone got any other questions?" Piper asked as they sat around the large table in the big house.

"Where is Percy?" Nico asked holding eye contact with Piper.

"Percy?" Piper wondered blinking at him as if she couldn't remember who he was for a second.

"Yeah Percy Jackson," Nico pressed trying to get a reaction he wanted.

"He's...where is he?" Hazel finally coming to her senses.

"Well I will go Iris message him before we get the plan on the way but I will talk to Marcus before I do," Nico grumbled as he walked out of the building and entered Percy's cabin. With a sigh Nico threw the coin into the water calling for Marcus to answer. Well more specifically Hazel had to do it since spirits can't make calls.

"Hey Hazel is Nico calling me?" Marcus asked looking into the sink.

"Yup he is but I will talk in his stead so any words I say are his and his alone," Hazel answered not wanting to be blamed if Nico insulted Marcus.

"Mark," Nico acknowledged, "I need to know how Billy and the family are doing."

"Oh they left a day ago," Marcus answered.

"What do you mean they left?" Nico asked desperately.

"I don't know some women, who I will tell you was quite a beauty, came to the door and just led them away," Marcus explained.

"And you didn't think to tell us?" Nico almost yelled.

"I just thought you were the ones to send her," Marcus replied. Nico was so angry and scared he cut the connection between Marcus and him and sat on the bed.

"Why would Aphrodite kidnap the Foster Family?" Hazel wondered out loud.

"Something tells me it wasn't Aphrodite," Nico growled as he thought back to Anti-Apollo knowing full well that they were involved somehow.

Percy was walking towards the Hermes temple wondering where Billy was. He must be so scared unless Billy was dead which made him both happy and scared. Happy because Nico could have his body back and scared because that might bind Nico to Tartarus since his body was lost in this hell hole.

"Hey Apollo who isn't Apollo," Percy called for Anti-Apollo not really expecting an answer.

"Yes?" Anti-Apollo answered fake gleeful.

"How many more of you are there?" Percy asked as he continued to walk.

"Oh well that would defeat the point," Anti-Apollo giggled.

"Does everything have to be so complex?" Percy grumbled as he caught sight of the temple.

"Well you guys would live a boring life which would probably lead to suicide," Anti-Apollo answered like he knew everything.

"Still I need at least a hint as to where Nico's body is," Percy pressed for more information.

"They are sitting in a cell somewhere praying for God to save them," Anti-Apollo sneered.

"They?" Percy wondered making Anti-Apollo smile.

"The whole foster family including the maid," Anti-Apollo answered.

"Why is the whole family here?" Percy yelled.

"To open the eyes of mortals of the true power," Anti-Apollo giggled before disappearing completely.

Percy seemed to be getting no where since the more he walked towards the temple the farther away the building seemed to get making him want to scream to the gods to let him live in peace.

Billy was scared. He couldn't understand where he was since it was both scary and disorienting. Every time he tried to focus on his surroundings his eyes would blur and make his head hurt. He looked at the foster family as they sat in a line in their own cage praying. Wanting it all to come to an end Billy began to pray with them.

He never knew he could set eyes on the devil but he has. He dressed up like a lady and convinced them somehow to come with him to this wretched place. The devil was a sly man and he hoped to God that someone was coming to save him. The family didn't deserve this. He didn't deserve this. Why was this happening to them.
