Nico's POV


"GUYY!" I called out as Jake and I got to the amphitheater and found Guyy and Lyea holding diagrams up, talking about somithing. Guyy noticed us and waved for us to come over to him.

"What you guys want?" He asked.

"Nico needs to know the legend- sorry, story -of you-know-who," Jake told him.

"Why?" Guyy said almost instantly.

I interrupted Jake before he could get a chance to even talk. "Because I don't know anything about Zwen."

Just when I said Zwen, the whole world around seemed to turn dark and cold. Lyea, Jake, and Guyy stared at me in shocked. Everyone who was around us seemed to noticed the temperature and they started whispering to each other in fear, as if everyone who hear. Guyy covered my mouth and glared.

"Never! Say her name out loud! It's bad luck and the gods will curse you! Even if you say her title!" He hissed.

"But. Then how will you say the story?" I asked.

"They allow us to tell the story to half-bloods or gods who don't know it, but that's it!"

"Alright, alright! Gosh."


Jake, Guyy, and I went in my cabin. I sat on the floor. Jake and Guyy sat on the bed, unconfortable being in the Hades cabin. I rolled my eyes.

"Don't worry. The spirits only come in here when it's night."

"Oh. Great," Jake, sarcastically, muttered.

"Okay! Guyy, Jake here said you can tell me the story of Zw- I mean you-know-who."

"Alright. The story takes place in the winter solstice, in 1500s. The gods had their regular meeting."

Just as Guyy was explaining the story, I felt myself being there. Like viewing everything. Were the gods doing this to new people who are hearing the story, to view how it went.


A slash went against Hades's arm. The gods stared in shock to Hades who had ichor pouring from his wound. My eyes widen. I started to shout out FATHER, yet my voice didn't work. Hades turned to who slashed him and he glared to a girl who was glaring back to him. My eyes widen again and I felt my heart pound.

Girl: Long black hair, white chalk skin, black eyes, 2012 clothes: gray hoodie, black jeans, and black vans. Looks around 14-15. Has a black blade sword. No. Not a black blade. Black fire instead of a blade. Wears a gray-black-silver helmet that was shaped like a snake skeleton's head.

I felt my heart pound a bit fast when she rushed to the other gods. She was incredible. She was quick and was actuate on where to hit the gods. Out of nowhere, after some time, a cage fell open her. Somehow, I felt like I needed to help her. I tried to run to her yet my feet were stuck in place. I glanced at the girl who was trying to break the cage open yet failed miserably. Then I started to notice the gods were arguing with her. Man. For gods. The only quiet one was the girl.

"Zeus," the girl said, glaring.

The other gods looked at her in shock, as if talking to Zeus after what she did, it'll be a death wish.

"Who are you?" He demanded.

"I guess that would've been obvious by now. That shows you guys are bakas," she told them as she put her sword in the ground and leaned against it.

Baka? Why does that sound familiar?I thought.

"Baka?" They looked at each other confused and she smirked at them.

"Tell us who you are. No one could get into Mount Olympus unless they are a demigod, god, or goddess. Which are you?" Athena told her.

"Well," -she picked up her sword and put it over her shoulder- ", since I couldn't possibly be a half-mortal. I guess I'm a goddess."

A goddess? Could this. . .be Zwen?

"Who are your parents?" My father, Hades, told her.

"Isn't it noticeable, Hades? She's yours. So, who's the unlucky lady?" Ares said jokingly to Hades.

"But she has my looks," Aphrodite said. "Don't tell me she isn't breathtakingly beautiful."

That was true.

"Hate to admit it, but Aphrodite does have a point there," Hera explained.

The gods nodded slightly in agreement and Zwen face-palmed.

"But she's powerful, like Zeus. Yet also likes to fight as well with Ares," Dionysus said.

"Who are you, might I ask?" She asked him.

She didn't know who he was yet she knew who they others were? Strange.

The gods, but him, snickered and he turned red from anger and that made Zwen smile a little at him.

"I'm Dionysus, the god of wine!"

"Oh. So you really are not that important." She turned her head to the other gods who were laughing.

"So. If you know who your parents are. Tell us," Hestia told her.

Zwen sighed, "If you really want to know then I suppose. But you have to free me first. Alright?"

"Alright."

"Wait, should we trust her?" Hermes asked.

Of course they didn't trust her. Who would after she went commando on them?

I didn't pay attention to the next part until I heard something that was out of the ordinary.

"My parents are all of you. That who they are."

My eyes widen. Her parents. . .were all of them? How was that even possible? After a few moments, I received my answer.

"I was born from your shadows and hate towards each other."


"And that, is only the beginning. I'll explain the rest tomorrow. I fear the gods will get mad at me if I tell anymore," Guyy said.

I blinked as I shot back into the reality.

"Nico? Are you alright? You seem. . .a bit red," Jake told me.

My eyes widen and I stared at them, "What? PSFTT! I'm not blushing!"

"I didn't say you were blushing."

I stayed quiet.

"Nico? You don't have a crush on you-know-who, do you?"

I stayed quiet still. Do I?
