Chapter 3: Nico's mind explodes.

Six months later.

The next six months passed rather well. Sure, the homework was torture, and the teachers were just god's awful, but for the first time in my life, I truly had friends. Bianca and Nico di Angelo were the two best friends I could ever ask for. Nico was like the little brother I'd always wanted and he even confessed to me that "You are the big brother I had always prayed for. Sure, Bianca's a great sister but she doesn't have as much of the same interests as me as you do." That had really touched my heart. God, I love that kid.

Bianca, however, was a whole different story. Over the past six months, especially after I scared off Nico's bullies, we seemed to get even closer. I had developed feelings for her. I had feelings for her before, but that was just her looks. Now that I actually knew her, I could honestly say I was in love. I didn't know how to ask her out. It'll come to me eventually. One day I'll grow the balls to do it.

Today was an eventful day to say the least. I was sitting on Nico's couch, watching tv with the two di Angelo's since it was a saturday. Looking out the window, you could see a lot of teens outside playing in the snow. Last night had been a blizzard. Two of the fire escapes were blocked with snow up to the second floor of the castle.

The three of us were planning to go out for a snowball fight later that day, but right now we were content with sipping our hot chocolate, and watching an episode of How I Met Your Mother. Turns out Nico and Bianca liked that show too.

Speaking of Bianca, I stiffened as she dozed off and her head onto my chest as she slept. Nico looked at us and the could barely stifle his laughter. I glared at him and he turned away and laughed silently. I blushed when she snuggled even closer, her light breathing filling the almost silent room. Nico couldn't take it anymore, the got up, left the room, and his loud laughter could be heard from the hallway. I lightly shook Bianca and she woke up. As she noticed her position, she blushed and got off of me. "Sorry, Luce. I guess I just fell asleep." I raised my hand. "It's alright."

Nico came back into the room about thirty seconds later, red faced from laughing so much. "Hey sis. Have a nice nap?" Bianca threw the tv remote at Nico and it hit him square in the nose. Bleeding and in severe pain, he stumbled into the bathroom to get some toilet paper. A few seconds later, a crash could be heard. "You alright Neek?" I shouted at him. After a few seconds, I could barely hear him say. "Yeah…" silence. "Alright." I shouted back at him.

I stood up to go to my room and get something, when a thud could be heard hitting Nico's window. Bianca turned her head. "What the hell was that?" I frowned. "I don't know. Some kid with bad aim." I looked over and saw a large pile of snow on the window. Opening a window, I looked out. One of the kids in the grade above us was looking at the window. "Hey! Get down here and join in the fun, man!" I had no idea who that guy was, but I did what the said anyway.

I looked at Bianca. "Hey Bianca, wanna go have that snowball fight now?" She turned from the tv. "Yes!" She wasted no time in getting her snow clothes on. I walked into the bathroom to see Nico still on the floor, nose bloody and a roll of toilet paper in his hands. I prodded him, unsure if the was even still alive. The grunted. "Yeah?" At least he's not dead. "Wanna go have a snowball fight?" I have no idea how it happened, but Nico was up and out of the bathroom in three seconds.

Walking out of the bathroom, Bianca and Nico were already dressed to go outside, although Nico was still putting his gloves on. "You ready, Luce?" Bianca asked me. I gestured to myself. I was wearing a t-shirt, trousers and socks. "Do I look ready?" She shrugged and Nico finally finished putting on his last glove. "I'll go get ready then." I said as I left Nico's room and headed into my own to get prepared.

Out of all the clothes I had packed for Westover, most of them were either uniforms or winter clothes. Deciding to go with a waterproof jacket, snow pants, snow boots and some black woollen gloves. I walked back out to find my two friends waiting impatiently just outside my door. Once Nico saw me, the grabbed my arm and dragged me down the hallway, excitement in his eyes and Bianca following us.

We made it outside and Nico let go of me. We walked for a little bit before I felt a thud hit me in the back. I turned around and there was Bianca, picking up another snowball. I beat her to it and hit her in the arm. I saw Nico run for cover as Bianca reloaded. Another snowball hit me in the head but this time it wasn't Bianca's. I looked over and saw Nico with three more snowballs. I looked at Bianca and I could tell we both had the same though. Let's knock the little gremlin out.

Nico ducked as the was suddenly pelted by dozens of snowballs. Unfortunately for him, the log the hid behind was too small to cover his whole body and so we got a couple of shots in on his head and legs.

The battle raged on as snowball was thrown one after another. Bianca and I had turned on each other at this point and we were all hidden behind various structures. I had been hit in the head enough times to kill me if they were stones. Luckily, Bianca and Nico had taken more hits than I had.

As I poked my head over the tipped wheelbarrow I was hiding behind, I saw a massive snowball headed right for my face. Focusing not on the fact that I was in a mortal school, more on how I needed to defend myself, I called upon my powers. Using the powers I inherited from Poseidon, the snowball turned to water just inches from my face, splashing me. All the snowballs stopped right then.

"What the hell?" Nico's voice could be heard as the both of them stared at me. Oh shit. "Lucifer, do you have like heat superpowers or something?" Deciding to cover it up, I lied. "I don't know, must be something to do with physics or something." Nico, not very smart when it comes to science, believed that but I could see the suspicion on Bianca's face. I threw a snowball a her. "Oh, no you didn't!" The battle continued.

We all stumbled back into Bianca's room an hour and a half later, cold, damp and tired. Nico went to go toilet, leaving Bianca and I alone. "I know that wasn't physics Lucifer, snowballs don't just melt in mid air. Now I've seen some weird things in my life, I mean, I'm in my 80s! But I have never, ever seen-" She was cut off by me. "Wait, what? You're in your 80s" Just then, Nico walked out of the bathroom and heard my question. "WHAT? BIANCA! HOW COULD YOU TELL HIM." I was officially confused. "What? What do you mean? How could you be in your 80s? The only way that could happen was if you slowed down-" I cut myself off there. Two times I almost spilt the beans about the mythological world in one day.

Then it hit me. "Bianca, Nico. Didn't you guys once tell me that you two lived in Vegas for a while?" They both looked confused. "Yeah, why?" Oh no. "Did you happen to stay at a hotel called the Lotus casino?" They still looked confused. "How could you possibly know that?" Oh shi- "Listen, we need to have a talk. Sit down." They did. "Look, Lucifer, I know you probably think we're crazy but-" I cut her off again. "No, I believe you." Her eyebrow raised. "How?" Nico still sat, depressed that the might just lose his big brother. "I need to tell you a story."

So I told them. I told them of the greek mythology being real, of me being a demigod, how I stayed in the Lotus hotel for a month, though it felt like a night. Bianca's eyes were wide in disbelief while Nico's were wide in astonishment. "How can we believe this?" Bianca asked me. "Simple." I snapped my fingers, and in a flash of light, I was sitting there, only this time wasn't wearing my snow clothes.

In their place, I was wearing my Nemean lion pelt from my battle with it three years previously along with some armor. Strapped at my sides, were my adamantine swords, Katastrofi and Caedus. I saw Bianca blush at the sight of the abs on my armor. I chuckled. "Believe me now?" Both of them nodded. "Still, it's hard to take this in. Why didn't you tell us earlier?" I sighed. "Same reason you two wouldn't tell me that you were over 80. You'd either not believe me and put me in a mental hospital or leave me because I was strange and a possible danger."

Bianca cupped my chin. "Nico and I will never leave you." I smiled, but Nico's voice interrupted us. "So do we have any powers?" I was shocked. "What?" Nico repeated himself. "Do Bianca and I have any powers?" I chuckled. "I doubt it. I mean, I can test but I doubt you'll have any powers or anything." Still, Nico went berserk. "WE COULD BE GOD'S. WE MIGHT GET TO MEET THEM!"

I caught him as the ran past and set him next to Bianca. "Hold still." I performed the ritual on them. As the information flooded through my head I only had one thought. Wow. Didn't see that one coming. "Bianca, Nico, how much do you know of your parents." They sat in thought for a while before Bianca spoke up.

"Our mother died when we were young, we never really knew dad. He left when we were babies." So they don't know about him. Interesting. "What do you know about Hades?" This time Nico spoke. "Hades was the ancient Greek chthonic god of the underworld, which eventually took his name. In Greek Mythology, Hades was regarded as the oldest son of Kronos and Rhea, although the last son regurgitated by his father. He and his brothers Zeus and Poseidon defeated their father-" I cut him off before the could recite the whole goddamn wikipedia page. "He's your father. You two are demigods."

This time they were both in shock, even Nico stopped talking. "Wh-what." Bianca whimpered. "Hades is your father, cousins. That's right, I am the son of Poseidon and you two are the children of Hades." Nico blew up while Bianca remained in shock. "WHAT? REALLY? THAT IS SO COOL. WHAT POWERS DO WE HAVE? CAN WE GO MEET OUR FATHER RIGHT NOW?" He seemed to calm down. "Yes. Yes. I know. I don't know. No, unfortunately, if Zeus knew any of us existed, he would kill us." Nico looked downtrodden. "Maybe one day, Neek." I ruffled his hair before turning to Bianca.

"How you doing?" She still had a look of disbelief on her face. I had changed back to my normal clothes. "It's just- how?" She started crying and hugged me. "It's okay. I don't know how or why, but it did. Don't worry though, I'll still be here for you two. Who knows, maybe I can even train you two." She tightened the hug as Nico whooped. "Thank you." I smiled. "You're welcome." We stayed like that for a few more minutes, then Bianca pulled away and said. "I don't want Nico holding a real weapon until he's practised enough with foam or cardboard." I chuckled as Nico whined. "Sure." I kissed her forehead and let go. It was only after I left the room that I realised what I had just done.

I just kissed Bianca.

BOOM! Two chappies in one weekend. Obviously chapters are gonna be coming slower because it's a week but still, I'll write! Chapter 4, here we come! P.S. Katastrofi is Greek for Destruction and Caecus is latin for Carnage.
