Thalia's POV

As I got up and smile at my dream. Today's my "birthday" and we went to the beach with my friends and I saw Nico, he was really pale and the colors of his lips were drained, and he had three rings of eye bags; all in all he looked really tired. I went near him and asked him,

"Why do you look so tired?"Then he shook his head and said,

"It's none of your business. Actually, it concerns you but for now it is none of your business." Then he went to Percy and argued about Percy stressing him out.

~Time Laspe~

The day was so awesome, we played truth or dare and right now we are singing in a place where the Apollo kids hang out. Will came in with his girlfriend Nyssa, from the Hephaestus cabin, and said,

"Guys lock up when you're finished," and threw the keys to me - since it was "my party".

When it was midnight, I was surprised to see Lady Artemis come inside while it was my turn to sing. The song I was singing was My Heart Will Go On, courtesy of Piper.

She was not alone when she came, Lord Hades was with him and so was Nico, no wonder he disappeared earlier this morning. Lady Artemis spoke up,

"Thalia it has come to my concern that Luke Castellan as visited you in a dream for two times already." I gulped and nodded my head.

"Well you see, since Aphrodite was involved she, Persephone and along with the other camp counselors to give you the freedom to choose," Hades said.

"Dad, Lady Artemis may I get to the point?" He asked and the two gods nodded okay. "We can bring Luke back to life today without it breaking any rules, but it comes with a price-"

"What's the price?" Percy said and then Nico gave him a death glare that could send chills to your bones.

"Let me finish, it is either you die and be granted the Elysium or you will have to give up something dear to you, or someone's lover, someone you know. With an additional being taken of the hunt and starting over."

"What do you mean by starting over?"Annabeth spoke up.

"He means that there is no guarantee that both of you will end up in the Elysium." Lady Athena suddenly arrived. "Father has sent me here to tell you that you're taking much of a risk, and I could say I agree with him."

"But mom-"Annabeth tried to say something but Lady Athena cut her off.

"Annabeth I know what you are feeling but it could start something worse between the gods."

"What do you mean?"

"It could mean he would do something rational that could end all our lives," Lady Athena said, "He fears that it would anger or disturb the three fates. They are pretty powerful; Percy even knows what happens when you go near him. Right Percy, tell us what happened?" she added then she looked at Percy and he nodded.

"It was when they took Luke's body to bring it to the Elysium. I saw my life literally flash before my eyes. They were that powerful and they weren't even in their true form." Percy said. All I could say was wow; I don't think I want to get near them but the same time I want to. To know, about what is to come.

"Do you now understand?" Lady Athena said and I nodded my head and bowed.

"I'll have to think about it."I replied.

"Very well, but for now you are allowed to see Luke, in his spirit form." Lord Hades said and waved his hand then Luke appeared before my eyes I hugged him and when I turned to see if the gods were still there, they have already left with only Lady Artemis left.

"Thalia you what this means right?" She said.

I nodded my head and said, "Expulsion from the hunt."
