ELIZA POV

I woke up to my brother moaning and breathing hard. I opened my eyes and looked towards his bed, only to avert my eyes. It was still dark out and the only light was the green hell fire torches outside.

"Really guys?!" I say. "Can't you go make out and give each other blowjobs in the bathroom?"
"No…" Nico says,breathless. I turn back around and attempt to go to sleep. I was almost unconscious, trying to ignore the noises coming from the bed across the room, when I felt a warm body wiggle into the bed beside me.

"Liza, make them shut up," Cat said.

"I already tried," I moaned. Cat turned so she was spooning me and she placed a kiss on my cheek. I played with her fingers and this time, I did fall asleep, despite the moaning ringing throughout the cabin.

Later I woke up to the door of the cabin slamming shut. The sun was out now and Will and Nico were out at breakfast. I got up and walked down to the dining pavilion to get breakfast. There was a girl I'd never seen before, she had short, brown choppy hair and was getting a piggyback ride from Will while he walked down to the pavilion from the Apollo cabin, having gone back to get dressed. The girl was wearing an orange CHB shirt and ripped blue denim shorts.

"Liza!" Will yelled to me. I jogged over to where he was standing.

"Hey,"

"This is my sister Lily, Lily this is Nico's sister Eliza," Will said.

"Hi!" she bubbled. Yep. definitely an Apollo kid.

"Where've you been since January?" I ask.

"I'm a summer camper. So I go home in the winter and come here in the summer when school gets out." She explains to me. "Most of the Apollo kids are year round kids, because our dad screws people who aren't usually ready for kids, but I live with my dad and stepmom."

Suddenly someone jumps on my back. I fall over, face first and flip over to find Cat on top of me. Standing next to her are Asia, Atlas and Shoto. Atlas and Neo are holding hands, I think Ava worked her Aphrodite magic on them.

"Did you guys finally get together?" I ask.

"Yeah, Neo is awesome," Atlas says, blushing.

"Aw thanks At,"Shoto says.

"We were just on our way to see Chiron. There's a rebel group of demigods that are against Camp Half Blood and Camp Jupiter, they're going to attack us soon." Asia says. Everyone's eyes widened and Will pales.

"I'll come with you to tell Chiron." He says, putting his sister down. I watch Will walk away with Asia, Atlas and Shoto.

WILL'S POV

This was bad news. This was very bad news. As I walked down to the Big House with the new campers, I pondered who it could be that started this rebellion. Maybe it was one of Octavian's friends. Most likely.

"What brings you here?" Chiron greets us at the front porch.

"Well, there's an uprising of rogue demigods that we encountered on our own, we escaped them but they told us not to go to either of the camps." Asia said.

"Shoto, go get Nico and Annabeth. Asia, what did they say they were going to do?"

"They said they were going to gather up demigods that weren't at any of the camps and create an army to take down the camps. They asked if we wanted to join, obviously, we didn't but, I thought you should know," Asia says. As she finishes talking, Shoto comes back with Annabeth and Nico.

"What's the matter Chiron?" Nico asks, coming over to cuddle into my side. I put my arm around his shoulders and fill him in.

"Nico and Annabeth will go to Camp Jupiter to tell Reyna and Frank. help them prepare and possible fight with them if needed. You'll set off in an hour, gather some clothes and your weapons." Chiron said, looking very serious. I rushed out of the Big House with Nico and we went straight to his cabin. I want to make a gay joke so bad, but now's not the time. Nico slams the door behind us and pushes me against it.

"I don't know when I'll be back...so," He whispered in my ear, drawing out the "o" in so. He started kissing my neck and made hickeys all along my jawline. He brought his lips to mine and kissed me hard with lust. He opened his eyes to meet mine and then bit my lip and sucked on it. I did not know Nico could be such a sexual god.

"Nico, stop, we don't have time for this," I whisper breathily when he starts kissing my neck again.

"But Will, I don't know when the next time I'll see you is. Could be days, could be weeks." He says.

NICO'S POV (little bit of smut, just scroll down to the next AN if you don't like that)

Will made me start packing after I gave him a hand job. Now I was hard and uncomfortable and Will wouldn't do anything before I had a bag of clothes put together.

"I'm done. Blow me now." I say. He looks at me with raised eyebrows and starts walking over, swaying his hips a little more than usual. I sat down on the edge of my bed and he straddled me and pushed me back. He pulled my pants down with his teeth and my boxers too. He licks my tip and swirls his tongue around it. He clutches my balls and takes me into his mouth. He bobs his head and that sets me off. Yeah, I'm a horny teenager it doesn't take a lot to make me cum. I moan Will's name as he swallows and pulls my pants up. (smut done)

Just then Annabeth knocked on the door and came in without waiting for a response. Me and Will were both sitting on opposite sides of the room as she came in.

"What have you guys been up to?" she asks, raising her eyebrows and smirking.

"Nothing…!" we say at the same time.

"Yeah, okay. Nico it's time to go." Annabeth said, placing her hands on her hips. Will picked up my bag and brought it out to the top of half-blood hill and set it underneath Thalia's pine tree with Annabeth's bag. I watched as Annabeth kissed Percy goodbye. All of a sudden, I was tackled from behind my multiple people.

"I'll miss you Neeks," Liza said, hugging me. Her team of attackers was her, Cat, Teresa, Stella and Atlas.

"Hey, only Will gets to call me that!" I say, glaring at her.

"Too bad. Go kiss your husband goodbye," Teresa said, smirking. I got up and sighed, then I did go kiss will bye. We didn't know how long this mission would be but we were going to stay at camp Jupiter for a week even if it wasn't that big of a deal. I released the kiss and grabbed Annabeth's hand to make a quick escape before Will changed his mind.

The shadows spit us out about half way to California so we stopped to rest. Annabeth got a little bit sick, from the shadows. Once I knew she was okay, I let myself drift off to sleep on the nice, soft, green grass.

ANNABETH'S POV (this will be the only pov outside of the ones i've already done)

I watched Nico sleep, okay, a little creepy, but he looked so innocent. Free of the burdens of the underworld and his past. Free from the nightmares about Tartarus and Bianca and Minos. He looked almost like the happy, nerdy ten year old that first arrived at camp 5 years ago.

Behind me I heard a rustle in the trees. I felt as if we were being watched. I turn around and whip out my dagger, almost making a fatal blow to my attacker's stomach. The person dropped their dagger and bent down to their knees. It was a boy about five feet four inches with pale skin. His hair was bright red and was in a longish crew cut. He had snakebites on his lips and black glasses framing his shockingly gray eyes. He wore all red and black and his chest was a little bigger than usual for a male.

"Y-your wearing a camp half blood t shirt. Do you go there?" the boy asked.

"I do, and why would that concern you?" I ask.

"Well, i've known about it all my life, but my mom obviously didn't send me. When I told her I was transgender, her worst fear, she kicked me out. I've been on my own for about a month, I'm doing pretty good. Anyway, i knew it was in new york but i didn't have any money so i'm walking." he said.

"Well,I'd love to help you get there. I'm Annabeth, and you are?"

"Rhysand. But that's hard to remember so just call me Ryhs. (reese)"

"Okay, well, we have to wait for Nico to wake so we can be on our way. We have to stop at Camp Jupiter to deliver some information, but after that we'll go to CHB." I tell him. He nids and fiddles with the hilt of his dagger. "So, tell me about yourself,"

"Well, I was born a girl, so I'm trans, I hope your okay with that kind of stuff. I lived in Tennessee all my life and I've never had a stepdad or any siblings." he says. He rambles off other stuff he likes and I focus on how in hades did he get from Tennessee to Kansas? He must have walked the completely wrong direction. Nico shifted and I looked over.

"Annabeth, who's that?" He said sleepily, sitting up against a rock.

"Rhys, Nico. Nico, Rhys. We're bribing him to camp with us. He's a demigod. Now come on, have some food." I tell the son of Hades.

NICO'S POV

I moan and get up from the ground. I stretch, making my shirt ride up. I yawn and dig around in my bag for some crackers. I find them and get them out. I stuff most of them in my mouth and then out the rest back in my bag. As I put them in, I notice I'd packed some cigarettes. I pull them out along with a lighter and light one.

"Nico! Will would kill you!" Annabeth exclaims. She attempts to grab it out of my hand but I dodge and blow smoke in her face. I smirk as she huffs.

"Please Annabeth. It helps me relieve stress without self harming. Please don't tell Will. Please Annabeth." I beg. I now had a serious face as she nodded.

"You don't tell anyone either." I say to the new kid. "Let's go grab on," I say slinging my backpack in my shoulders and holding out my hands for them to grab onto.
