"The prince of death shall fade again,only an act of pureness saves him from sin. The forges child alone catches the flame, beware the flare of passions past and only from death is born new life, true loves kiss will rekindle the fire." Rachel repeated as we walked up. she stopped when I got up to her and i turned to the others. Standing around me they all stood awaiting my command.
"Does anyone have any idea what that means?" The others shook their head no as I looked around to each of them. When I got to Nico he dropped to the floor. Everyone but me rushed to his side, trying to figure out what was wrong with him. "It is useless guys did you not hear the prophecy' the prince of death will fade again.' We might as well put the body somewhere safe till we get him back."
"You mean to tell me you are not freaking out,Leo you realize his body just died right?" Hazel asked giving me a weird look.
"I am but there really is not anything we can do now is there?"
"I guess not."
"Exactly so let us get his body put up then decide what to do."
"We can put him in my cabin no one will bother him there." Percy spoke up. I nodded and picked him up before walking out heading to the Poseidon cabin. Once there I walked in and laid him down on the bed. I sat down beside him and grabbed his hand. The others got there shortly after us and sat down surrounding me. All of us were lost in thought for about an hour, mine mostly going back to the prophecy and the possible things that were about to happen. From what I could tell I was going to be the only one able to truly save him. That is provided i could get past Calypso again. I and going to need at least one of the others to help me if I am going to make this trip and save him. Who is going to die though on this quest and what in the world did new life mean?. I wondered as my thoughts were brought back down to earth as we heard a knock on the door, soon followed by Rachel entering the cabin.
"I went to Chiron and you guys need to head out soon probably." She looked around at the seven of us,"Are all of you going?"
"I do not think all of us should go but I am not sure how many of us need to stay back." I spoke up from my spot.
"Well that may be true Leo but I am sure none of us is willing to sit this one out, we are a team practically a family and you are not doing this with out us." Hazel said from the other side of Nico. She to was holding his hand.
"If you guys want to do this and join me you need to get your things and meet me on the ship." I said getting up and walking out going to the cabin to grab what little i would need. After grabbing my things i went to the ship and climbed on board. I sat beside Festus I waited for everyone else. A short while later they all where also on deck. I stood up and raised the ship off the ground. We would discuss where we needed to go in a minute once we were out of the camps boarders. I put the ship into auto pilot and we went to the kitchen sitting around the table.
"So where should we head to since the prophecy was not that clear." Jason asked no one in particular.
"We should probably head to the gates of hell seeing as that is where he went last time plus even if he is not there we can ask dad is he has any clue on what some of the prophecy means." Hazel supplied. The rest of them nodded their heads in agreement. "The only problem is i do not know how to get there i have never actually be to the underworlds through the front door.
"I know a way in but we have to take the ferry in." Percy told us. we looked at him as if he had grown a second head. When had he been to the underworld. The only person who did not seemed surprised was Annabeth, she was probably with hm. "I will get us there is Jason will stay on deck with me."
"Of course I will stay" Jason replied.
"The rest of you will probably want to rest some. The way we are going in is not a hike in the park." Percy told us looking to Annabeth for conformation who only nodded before leaving the room heading to the bedrooms. The rest of us just followed not bothering to ask questions. Once we got to the hall Jason, Piper and Annabeth went in one direction while the rest of us went the other.
"Are you going to be okay on your own?" Hazel asked me.
"Of course." She went into her room then soon followed by Frank and I headed to my room. I guess Frank was not going to leave her alone. I went to my room and collapsed on my bed not able to sleep. My thoughts kept drifting to Calypso and how in the world she was going to be brought into this quest if we did not leave the continental us. My thoughts soon began to drift off to Nico as my tiredness finally caught up to me and I fell asleep.
I did not know how long I had been out when I heard a knock at the door followed by "Leo wake up we are here." in Percy's voice. I jumped up out of bed and ran to the deck.
"We are still in the middle of the sky how are we here?" I asked as I looked around us and seeing nothing but clear blue skies.
"Look down you need to land us." I looked down and below me stood the famous Hollywood sign and I knew I needed to land us on that hill and that it would be slightly difficult since I really did not want to destroy the sign. I quickly did so though. We all got off of the ship and followed Percy through the gates of Hell which happened to be under the letter H.
