Thank you guys for your awesome reviews!

KJtheELMtree: :)

Fangirling Gymnast: Please don't cry.

I would keep going on, but seriously I want to get on with the story. I'm guessing you would like to as well. By the way, who do you like better?

Percy's mom, or Leo's mom? I can't decide. Can you guys?

"What do you think you're doing?"

Nico flinched and stiffened as he slowly spun around.

A boy with dark curls stood there, glaring at him accusingly. Nico mentally groaned.

Leo Valdez.

"What do you want?" He growled.

Leo frowned. "What do you think you're doing? Running away? Look, I know you hated us... what will Hazel say?"

Nico bit his lip, "This is not the time... I'm leaving.. get it?"

"You're leaving?" This voice was not Leo's.

A young girl, appeared from behind Leo's legs. She was hiding there. Skye.

Leo looked at her, then at Nico, "Hazel loves you. She looks up to you, admires you. You're just going to leave her? Your sister? Just like that?"

Nico flinched again. He was right. Hazel did look up to him. Just like he did with Bianca. Nico closed his eyes, trying to escape the pain. Bianca left him for the hunters...

Guilt filled him. "So.." He whispered, "What do you want me to do?"

Leo looked at him like he was an idiot.

"Stay here, duh!"

Nico cursed under his breath, then focused on Skye. She was watching him, with her huge, adorable eyes.

"May I ask you... what are you doing here?"

Leo grinned. "Well, this girl, " He pointed at Skye, who was also smiling, "is just as ADHD as me, and stayed awake the whole night. So, I decided to take her outside, and I heard a thump from your cabin,"

Oh. So it was loud.

Leo yawned, bags under his eyes. He rubbed his eyes. Of course, he was awake the whole night.

Skye was still watching him. Of course, when she finds out he's a son of the god of death, she would stay away from him.

Suddenly, Skye walked up to him and held out a hand, "Hello. I'm Skye. What's your name?"

Cautiously, he shook her small hand. "Nico. Nico di Angelo"

"Who is your parent?" Nico stiffened.

"No one. Don't worry."

Leo gave him a look, but Nico saw that Leo understood.

"Who is it?" Skye asked again, more curious than ever.

Nico sighed. He couldn't' keep going on. "Hades. God of Death. There you go. Happy?" That sentence brought him back horrifying memories.

Skye's eyes widened.

The Ghost King was slightly disappointed, but he recognised this. Next, the slow backing away and the excuse to go somewhere. Then there were the rumours.

"Is it true that your dad has blue fire shooting out of his head?"

"..." Nico stared at her, expressionless. Even Leo looked- What the Hades?

Then suddenly he burst out laughing. Leo joined in. Skye looked slightly confused, but the laughing was contagious.

They wondered what the camp would think if they saw this. A son of Hades, with packed bags and two children of Hephestus laughing their heads of.

"Okay, " Nico said, when he stopped, still shaking, " No, not really."

Skye smiled. "Does he look like you?"

Nico nodded. Leo grinned. "Dude, You laughed. You laughed. Hallelujah!" He picked Skye and swung her around.

"I think Hades is cool. " Skye began, "He can bring people back to life. But he's only grumpy because he's the unluckiest of his brothers. Can I get his autograph? I want to meet him,"

Nico smiled sadly. "You will meet him. That's what everyone is scared about. They think he's a really bad parent, I guess."

"But didn't you ... live with him?" Skye asked. Where she got the information from, he had no idea. "He let you live with him as a family. He didn't ignore you. So how can he be bad? And maybe you can travel me to there once. "

Silence fell upon them.

Skye had an amazing point. Whilst every other demi-god thought Hades was a bad at taking care of Nico, they didn't live with their godly parents, did they?

Leo looked impressed. "Extremely good point there, Skye!" Skye grinned at him.

Leo yawned again.

"Why don't you go to sleep?" Nico asked.

"Dude." Leo stared at him. "Awesome sister to take care of here,!"

"Why don't I take care of her?" He held out both his hands. Skye looked at her brother.

Nico doubted Leo would trust the person he literally cared about most with a Son of God of the underworld, but he looked into the fire user's eyes. Leo trusted him.

"Go on. " He said. Skye kissed Leo's cheek and climbed into Nico arms and put her arms around him. Nico felt extremely weird at that moment.

He put his arms around her back.

Leo grinned for the 100th time. "Well, Skye, Nico if you're doing anything way too awesome, wake me up!" Then he walked away, looked slightly exhausted to his cabin.

Skye stared at him.

Nico grinned madly, something he hadn't done for a while. He felt important.

"Well, Skye,

"Have you heard of Mythomagic?"
