CHAPTER 3 told from Nico's perspective then Reyna's
story will develope in a few chapters
What in the gods names just happened!? I had just shadow traveled , and about ready to pass out when out of literary nowhere this girl with dark blond hair showed up. She tackled me to the ground in an awkward hug, head buried in my chest sobbing uttering "please... please... I care... help me ... please help"
. After a while her crying died down so I request get up. Slowly she got up with me. Only then did I notice that she looked a lot like me pale, big bags under her eyes, that same pain in her eyes . She looked so hopeless as if she had given up on everything, just like me except I had a something to hold on to . I hope this girl does , other wise ... my thoughts trailed off. The girl looked down at my shirt to see a big wet spot . She tried to put her hands over her face but another pair of pale hands cut her off . I quickly realized they where mine shocked I said the only thing I could manage: I said hello my name is Nico de Angelo. Reyna and Coach Hedge came over noticing that she had stoped crying, Reyna said "my name is." Only to be cut off by the girl" Reyna "the girl finished " and your Coach Hedge" .
how on earth did the girl know any of this was she a spy for Gaea? Reyna pointed her sword at the girl and demanded" who are you? How do you know who we are?" .The girl bit her lip not saying anything for a minute,then she mumbled "I'm .. I'm sorry. I..I ...I don't know" she said helplessly . I could see the distrust I Reyna's cold brown eyes the girl quickly added "I m not working for Gaea though... if that's important." What in the name of Hades , how does she know about Gaea !? Coach Hedge got really angry and started yelling " just who do you think you are? And how in the gods names did you even get here!? The girl started sobbing again the buried her face in my chest again.
"Who is she " asked coach
"no idea , try asking Nico . She won't let go of you" said Reyna offensively
"no idea either" I said calmly " but she wasn't here before"
"Nico " Reyna demanded " check her for weapons"
I slowly checked the trembling girls body for weapons. I started to pull up one of her selves only to quickly pull it down again. Scars her wrists were covered in scars. "She's clean" I told Reyna quietly .
now to Reyna's point of view.
how did this girl get here I thought watching her grip Nico's arm while starring at the fire that I had made when it had gotten dark out. Nico should have been resting for the next shadow jump but instead was sitting next to this girl staring at her face took awhile but she did finally stop crying. She always had a grip on Nico's arm like he was her life line. Like without him she would disappear. My instincts told me to do any thing to get answers, but Nico told me to stop after a while because all she would do was cry ,his shirt was now covered in tears . What in the gods names where we supposed to do!
back to Nico real quick
If this girl dissent have anything to make her stay I would give her one...
a friend ,something to hold on to.
