Hey guys I Just finished school like six and a half hours ago and decided to celebrate by writing!(Some people say I have a weird mind... I prefer the term 'Different') Anyway here is the next chapter

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the main plot.

Sorry if you were hoping this was Percy again but as interesting as his side of the story is I thought I should let people know what's going on my end... so to speak seeing as I am in the middle of the earth... anyway on with the story...

I was sitting contemplating what Percy had posted and wondering how Thalia would react... I kind of hoped that he wouldn't come till she had left – but the other half argued that she had the right to know too... when I heard shouts coming from outside the room my cage was in. (Seriously? A cage? I was just as confused as you) I sat up and tried to listen to the shouting, I couldn't hear everything but someone kept yelling

"Get off me!... Get Off Me!... GET OFF ME!" it sounded like Piper but I wasn't sure until her voice changed and became really sweet

"You know, you really don't want to kidnap me do you? I mean, my dad is a big time celebrity, if you kidnap me you will get in big trouble from the authorities, even if you were just doing what Gaia ordered, you can hardly sue the whole earth can you?" there was a pause then Gaia's voice filled the cavern

"IDIOTS! SHE'S CHARM SPEAKING YOU! Piper my dear, that was an impressive try but you can't escape me that easily... in fact you cant escape me at all," as I felt Gaia's presence leave of at least fade the doors opened and in marched two of the Earth Born with a person held between them. They walked over to my cage unlocked it and threw Piper in, then they locked the cage and left the room, and Piper and I were alone.

"Hey," I walked over to her "Are you okay?"

"Who are you?" she said it kinda accusingly but I figured that was understandable so I tried to be gentle (which is not something that comes easily to a son of Hades) and said

"I'm Nico di Angelo, son of Hades... and your Piper right? Daughter of Athena?"

"Yes... where are we?" she looked around

"As far as I can figure … the center of the earth … under Rome … Ancient Rome that is..."

"Wouldn't the center of the earth be under everything?"

"No it would be under about a quarter of the earth next to two quarters and on top of one quarter seeing as it is the Center"

"Oh...kay let me re-fraze that … why did you say under Rome … I thought China was on the top at the moment?"h

"Well technically yes but the easiest route in and out of here goes through Rome..."

"Okay well now that we've got that cleared up … what are you doing here?" By now she seemed to accept the fact that she was stuck with me and my bad sense of humour. I took a breath and began:

"I was a fool... I thought because I was the son of Hades I could go anywhere in Hades and be safe, I went looking for the doors of death, and … well I found them … but Gaia's forces found me and well … I got caught … and they dragged me here and left me at Gaia's mercy," Piper seemed slightly pale, but also a little bit curious like she thought I hadn't given her all the facts,

"Nico... where are the doors of death?" she asked

"Well the mortal side … it changes all the time but I think Gaia's forces are trying to pin it down in Greece somewhere, why?"

"Where's the side in the underworld?"

"You really don't want to know..."

"Yes I do."

"I'm sorry but right now you wont hear it from me, it's just to terrible and fresh in my mind at the moment"

"That's okay … I guess … how long have you been down here?" She inquired

"I dunno … a week? Time moves differently down here..."

"Oh okay, I wonder what's going on on the Argo II?" I grinned and pulled out my computer,

"I might be able to help you there... for the center of the earth this place has surprisingly good wi-fi,"

… So Piper's stuck with Nico … and more people are finding out about the fan-fic. On another note I started this at the start of the holidays and I go back on Tuesday... sorry about the uberly long wait … I got caught up with other stuff but here it is now :) reviews! and guesses as to who the mysterious person is makes me very happy :P sorry that it's so short... the next will be longer... I think... :)
