He saw what was going to happen.
He knew that there were going to be mortal consequences for his actions.
Nico di Angelo and Percy Jackson were fighting off monsters back to back.
Occasionally, Nico would summon skeleton-beings as backup, but they would die, just about, as suddenly as they were summoned.
He often tried to summon better hell-bound monsters, like Hell Hounds, to fight, but failed each time.
His only hope was dying before him.
Percy was literally all he had left- his sisters, his mother; all gone.
Even Jason was nowhere to be seen.
He looked down at his skull ring, strategizing.
"Percy," he called out, desperately, realizing that they had been separated. "Percy!"
He heard an echo-y voice, "Nico? I'm okay- you?"
"Fine. I have a plan..."
So far, the plan was working perfectly.
Percy was causing a diversion, and Nico and his skeletons were killing all the monsters.
That is, until one of the monsters got a little too excited.
Percy couldn't see it, but Nico could.
He ran in front of the sassy kid, letting the monster attack him instead.
He died the same way his sisters did.
Protecting Percy Jackson.
That boy better keep saving the world.
I don't own.
Sorry that that was so crappy. I wrote this in, like 5 minutes.
Any suggestions?
