Sorry it's been so long since I updated. I've been very busy.
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson
Persephone looked at Jenny's unconscious form on the ground. "Good." She whispered. "Now it will just take an hour for the poison to kill her." And she walked away, leaving Jenny dying on the ground in the middle of nowhere.

Nico ran all the way to Hades's palace. "Dad!" he yelled.
Hades looked annoyed about being interrupted. "What is it, Nico? I'm busy."
"I think Persephone has Jenny, and I think she's going to try to kill her." Nico said all in one breath.
Hades looked up. "Are you sure?"
"Yes." Nico told Hades about how he had been talking to Jenny, and how Persephone had come and taken her away.
Hades got up and started walking away. "Come, Nico. We have to hurry and find Persephone, before she kills your sister."
Nico, confused, called back, "My sister's already dead!"
"You're half sister, you idiot, Jenny! Now come on!"
"Oh." said Nico. "That makes a lot more sense…"

Hades and Nico were running through Persephone's garden when they ran into Persephone herself.
"Hello, dear." Persephone said to Hades. "How are-"
"What have you done with her?" Hades roared.
"Done with whom?" Persephone asked innocently.
"You know with whom." Nico said angrily.
"I really don't know what you are-"
Hades interrupted her by grabbing her by the shoulders and holding her in a headlock. "What have you done with my daughter?"
"Jenny? I haven't seen-"
"Don't you dare lie to me, Persephone, don't you dare." Hades growled.
Persephone gulped. "She's just outside the fields of punishment. She's still alive…but not for much longer."
Hades dropped Persephone and headed for the fields of punishment. Nico followed him.
Persephone watched them go. She ran into the palace and sent and Iris-message to Hephaestus and Hercules, who were on Olympus together. "They're on to us."

Hades and Nico found Jenny exactly where Persephone told them they would. She didn't look good.
"This is bad." Nico said. "I can see her dying. But isn't she immortal?"
"Not completely." Hades said. "It's complicated. Another god can probably kill her."
"We should get her to Olympus. Maybe Apollo can do something." Nico suggested.
"Good idea."

Camp Half-Blood
Annabeth, Percy, and Thalia were working with heroes in the arena.
"Good." Percy said to the boy he had been practicing sword fighting with. "Next time, try to-"
"Percy look, it's Chiron." Annabeth said.
"He doesn't look happy." Thalia said.
"Percy, Annabeth, Thalia, come with me." Chiron called. They said goodbye to their students and ran over to meet him.
"What's going on, Chiron?" Annabeth asked.
"I'm afraid I have some bad news." Chiron began. "About Jenny."
"Jenny? Oh no, what happened to Jenny?" Percy asked, looking worried.
"Persephone got to her. She's been poisoned. Lord Hades and Nico brought her to Olympus. She doesn't look good."
"Oh no." Percy said again. He turned to Annabeth and Thalia. "We have to go see her."
"Agreed." Thalia said. "Chiron-"
"Go." Chiron said. "You have my permission."
"Thank you." Annabeth said. "Come on, guys."

Olympus
Hermes was busy on his phone, as usual. He was very behind. He hadn't gotten any work done yesterday while he was with Jenny.
Apollo came running up to him. He was followed closely by Aphrodite. "Hermes!" Apollo yelled. "Hermes!"
"What, Apollo?" Hermes demanded. "I'm very busy-"
"It's about Jenny." Aphrodite interrupted. That caught Hermes's attention.
"What about Jenny?"
"Persephone poisoned her." Apollo said. "She's here, on Olympus. I'm about to head over to try to cure her. It looks bad, Hermes."
"Oh no…Jenny." Hermes whispered. He put his phone away. "Let's go."
"This way." Apollo started to lead them away.
"Wait," Hermes said. "Does Athena know?"
Silence. "Oops." Aphrodite said, shaking her head.
Hermes sighed. "Fine, Apollo, you go start helping Jenny. Aphrodite and I will go find Athena. Then we'll go see Jenny."
"Sounds good." Apollo said, and ran away.
"Come on, Aphrodite." Hermes said. They went to go find Athena.
Athena was reading a book in the garden. She looked up when Hermes and Aphrodite hurried over.
"Hello Hermes." She began.
"Hi Athena, no time to chat, come with us." Hermes said. He and Aphrodite pulled her up and started pulling them along behind her.
"Hermes…Aphrodite…what is this about?" Athena demanded.
"It's about Jenny, now come on." Aphrodite said.
"Jenny? What's wrong with Jenny?"
"Persephone poisoned her. Apollo's with her right now." Hermes told Athena.
"Oh no." Athena said. She started walking faster. "Come on! We have to hurry."
"That's what we were trying to do." Aphrodite hissed under her breath.
Athena, Hermes and Aphrodite found Hades, Nico, Percy, Annabeth, and Thalia waiting by the small room and the side of the palace that Jenny was in. "Apollo is in there right now." Thalia said.
"There isn't any news yet." Nico finished.
Hermes just nodded and sat down. "I hope she's all right." He whispered.
We'll find out if Jenny's ok in the next chapter. Sorry this chapter is so short! Please review!
