Heeyyyy...so I slacked. Reading too many fanfics. Anyways, updated the profile, go ahead and check out the poll, whatever.

Nico's P.O.V.

Laurie and I had settled into a booth at the local McD's. I was happily eating a BigMac, she was eating McNuggets.

But that wasn't the point.

"So, you still haven't been attacked by anything? That's kind of weird...especially since I already told you you're a demigod..." I wondered.

She shrugged. "I mean, I stayed away from electronics like you told me to. And you told me yourself that a lot of monsters had been killed in the last two wars...By the way, you never told me what they were about." She popped another nugget into her mouth.

"Oh yeah. THose...Um, y'know, I'll let one of the Athena kids tell you, they're much better at it. Or one of the 7. I was kind of busy hiding in the Underworld, summoning ghosts, jumping into places I shouldn't have, and getting kidnapped to really know what was happening most of the time." Nico chuckled.

Laurie stared at him. "Kidnapped?"

"Long story.' Nico sighed. "It wasn't fun. Especially the diet of pomogrante seeds.." He took a long sip of his Coke.

Laurie scrunched her nose up in disgust. "Gross."

"Yeah. But it was better then the stuff I lived on...there..." His eyes glazed over for a moment, then returned to normal. "Anyways, we need to get you to Camp. I don't know why you haven't been attacked by anything at all but that just means something big's coming. Percy Jackson ,son of Poseidon...he went unattacked for 12 years as a child of the Big Three, with something coveing his stench, and his still ended up vaporizing his algebra teacher and fighting a Minotaur before he made to camp. My sister and I got to Camp after being attacked by our vice principal, who was actually a monster, and we were, what, 10 and 12? Yeah, something like that. Hopefully you're one of the minor gods' kids, maybe that's be a good reason why." He shrugged. "Especially since you're above 13."

'is 13 when the attacks start?" Laurie asked.

Nico facepalmed. "That's when it gets worse. Now, if you're done, it'd be a good tiem to head to camp before something happens. Again." He stood and tossed his trash. Laurie popped the last nugget in her mouth and did the same.

"So how are we geting there?" She asked through the nugget. "You're not old enough to drive and unless we hail a cab or something.."

"No need. I have a chauffer. Which I have asked my sister to return for an hour. Long enough, since I'm much too tired to shadow travel." Nico led his companion outside to the curb and snapped his fingers.

A crack opened in the ground and a zombie and car appeared. "Laurie, meet my chauffer, Jules-Albert." Nico grinned in his creepy way, climbing into the car.

Laurie stared, then quicky got in. "Why didn't we use this coming from Kentucky?"

"Car got damaged. I didn't want to ask my dad for another while my stepmother was around." Nico shrugged.

"You are truly crazy."

"Welcoem to the world of demigods." Nico relaxed, putting his feet up on the dashboard. "Anyways, heard from Kenneth lately?"

"Nope.' Laurie sighed.

Nico groaned as the car stopped outside the road to Camp. "Well, I'll just have to keep looking then...C'mon, I'll take you to Chiron and then i need to go take care of buisness." He hopped out of the car, and once Laurie was out, waved his hand and let Jules-Albert return to wherever he came from. He started walking down the hill.

Laurie ran after him. "Who's Chiron?"

"Our activities director. Oh, by the way, he's a centaur. Just a warning." Nico replied.

But Laurie barely registered what he'd said due to seeing the camp in its entirety for the first time. "Oh wow...This is...amazing."

"I know, right? And we're still rebuilding." Nico said, leading Laurie to a large blue farmhouse. "And the fact we didn't get chased by a monster while on the way here is even more amazing." He added, opening the door and stepping inside.

Laurie was in a daze, almost on autopilot. Nico had to grab her arm and shake it before she finally recovered and noticed that there was a half-man-half-horse in front of her, saying something.

"...great that no monsters were following." he was saying.

Nico was nodding. "Yeah. I figure my scent rubbed off on her and the monsters got scared or something."

"That is possible..." The centaur agreed, befor eturning to Laurie. "Hello, child. I am Chiron, activities director of Camp Halfblood, the Greek demigod camp." He offered a hand, which Laurie hesistantly took. "I hear Nico has already told you the basics?" She nodded. "Good. I will call a guide to show you around and answer more questions, as I think Mr. Di Angelo has decided to go and yell at the master pranksters of the camp."

Laurie looked around, and saw that Nico had disappeared, but she could hear yelling. Loud yelling. And some screaming. "Will they be okay? And won't he get in trouble?"

"oh, this is perfectly normal. And it hasn't gotten violent, so I'll let it pass." Chiron chuckled as a tall brown-haired girl enteered the room. "And here is your guide, Miss Pines. katie, this is Laurie, one of the ones Nico brought in. Laurie, this is Katie, head counselor of the Demeter cabin and your guide for today."

"Hello!" Katie smiled. "Ready to see camp?"

Laurie nodded and followed the girl.

It wasn't long before it was discovered she was also a child of Demeter (all they had to do was pass by the Demeter cabin and for Laurie to point out one of the plants growing on teh walls to be claimed).

Nico watched from afar as Laurie happily joined her siblings.

One down, one to go.

Now how to get revenge on the Stolls...
