Percy's POV
Ok, so we've just defeated Gaea, but we're moping around. Why, you ask? Well because technically, Leo defeated Gaea, but he's dead. Even Clarisse has noticed that. Nico, Hazel, Piper, Jason, Annabeth, and I are lost without Leo. He's our team spirit, and always cheers everyone up. We continue moping, but secretly hoping that Leo will pop up, and it was all a trick. Nico has called us all to the Hades Cabin. I better get going.
"Welcome, everyone!" Nico's voice sounds cheerful, but I can hear that it's all fake.
So, apparently, can everyone else.
"Why did you call us here and why are you sounding so fakishly happy?" Jason asks, earning a glare from Annabeth who promptly corrects it to 'Why did you call us here and why are you pretending to be happy?'
Nico drops his smile as he beckons us into his Cabin. I slowly enter, wondering if my Uncle and Nico's father, Hades will kill me any minute now. I notice (yes, I actually notice things) that Jason looks cautiously around before sitting on a black chair. Everything in the room is gloomy and black, like Nico.
"I've got an idea," Nico starts, before everyone starts interrupting.
"You figured out a way to get Leo back from the dead?" (Piper)
"Leo's back?" (Frank)
"We have to go on a quest to save Leo?" (Annabeth)
"You have seen Leo and know how to save him?" (Me)
Annabeth slaps my cheek, earning a "HEY!" out of me.
"Figured you needed it, Seaweed Brain," Annabeth smirks, and I glared at her, starting to grab Riptide.
"Stop!" Nico exclaims, "I was thinking, what if we talk to my dad, and ask him about Leo?"
A/N: I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Any ideas on what I should write next? Write me a review!
