Nico POV
"Nico?" said a sweet voice.
I look down. It was Hinata. She was smiling at me. Her smile didn't even change. She moved her amber eyes to see my face. She examined every inch to see if there was anything different or the same the last time we saw each other.
"You don't stuttered anymore?" I asked
"I still stuttered a little bit." Hinata replied in a quiet voice. "B-But I-I s-stuttered a-a l-lot w-when I-I'm a-around y-you."
She reached out and touch my cheek. I could see in her eyes she's a lot more confident than she was before. I guess after the day she confessed to me and when I kissed her, she must have gain more confident to do things on her own like dealing with bullies and everything.
"Y-You look the s-same." She said. "But y-you're a l-little bit more p-pale and your hair is d-darker than it was b-before. O-Over all y-you look more h-handsome."
"It's not working!" Will said in panic. "The nector and ambrosia isn't working!"
"Y-You need the actual flower of ambrosia, a fire flower, and a black gem flower," Hinata said. "After that you need to brew it into a potion."
Everyone looked at her. I did the same. How did she know all of that? This is like the first time she got her and she just know about those plants.
"How did you know about that?" Will asked.
"I...I don't know." Hinata confessed. "...A voice told me about it in my head."
No one look at Hinata as if she was crazy. It's actually normal for our godly parent to contact us in our heads. Nothing wrong with that. It's very normal if you're a demigod. If you're not a demigod, then that's bad. Chiron studdied Hinata seeing if he can find any symbol to prove who her godly parent is.
"Let me see your locket." Chiron said.
Hinata took off her locket with only one hand. She held it up for Chiron to see. All the Apollo kids drop their mouths. I did the same. Everyone else was speechless. There on her locket was a sun chariot riding along with the sun. Meaning that sumbol belongs to the sun god.
"You're the daughter of Apollo, the god of prophecy and healing." Chiron said.
"You mean she's our half sister?" All of Apollo kids shouted
"That's right!" said a cheerful voice.
In a very bright gold flash, there was a man with sandy blonde hair, wearing a orange tank top, blue jeans, converse shoes, and sunglasses. He was holding two plants: Ambrosia and fire flower. I raised an eyebrow. He got the ambrosia from Olympus and the fire flower from Hepheastsus, but where's the black gem flower?
"You!" Hinata shouted as she pointed to Apollo.
"That was the guy who came to your apartment before you went to our date?" I asked.
"You two went on a date?" One of the Aphrodite kids questioned me, which I think that voice belonged to Drew.
"Y-Yeah, that's him." Hinata answered to my question. "It was the same voice that spoke in my head."
Apollo knelt down and placed the two flowers in Hinata's hands. then Apollo looked at me with grave in his eyes. At first I thought he was being an over protective father, but I realized it's not that. It's becaues he thinks I might know where's the black gem flower is.
"You do know where the black gem flower is, don't you?" Apollo questioned. "It's in the Underworld isn't it? Have you seen it before?"
"I-I think so, but I'm not sure," I replied. "My father usually keep his Underworld medichine in his palace."
"Well, I suggested you should go right now," Apollo said. "Half of the poison is removed from her, but she still won't last long."
"What do you mean?" I cried.
"The half of the poison will fully kill her when the sun sets." Apollo answered. "If I were you, you need to confront your father about this. Isn't my daughter very important to you? Didn't you vow you'll never let any harm happened to you after your ex-girlfriend, my half-sister drop her off of the roof? If I were you, Di Angelo, you should keep track on her soul. She's not like your half-sister Hazel, who you can bring back from the dead. Thantos won't allow it. I wish you two good luck."
Apollo disppeared in a gold flash.
I clenched my fist and punched the ground with rage. I hate this! I can't heal Hinata by sun down. This is impossible. I'm going to fail this. If I can't save her, she'll die and I won't see her again. I haven't seen her for a year and now she's here, but a manicore just had to poison her! Does Apollo thinks I cannot save her? I shook my head. No, I could save her. She's the most important person in the world to me. I'm not going to let her die right in front of me. I just finally got reunited with her. I'm not going to let manicore poison in my way.
I got up and carried Hinata in my arms. Her faced turn red almost like the cake red velvet. Of course this was the second time I carried her like that. When she was unconscious from the fall, I carried her like that to the hospital. I would have told her, but I decide not to tell her until she found out on her own. I went over to the shadows at the pine tree. The shadows swarmed around us like bees. Hinata's eyes widen with amazement as if she had never seen my power before, which it is true.
"N-Nico, w-where exactly are w-we going?" Hinata asked nervously
"To the Underworld." I answered softly. "I need to get the black gem flower from my father's palace."
