Sup people. Here I am again. With the new chapter. I suppose you want to read it now. Well, get on with it.

Disclaimer: I own what I own. Rick Riordan owns the rest.

Will's POV

Jacob, 5. Aden, 7. Ben, 9. Mandy, 11. And Hank, 14.

"So, what should we do?" I asked.

"Story time." Jacob said. All of them settled onto the ground in front of me. I sat down.

I started talking about my life. How I came to camp, to the war, to now. The kids were really engaged in my story, that at lunch time, when the door opened, no one noticed.

"So." A voice startled me out of my story. "Is this what Idalia did with you?" Niobe asked.

"Partly." Hank said. "Can we eat now, I'm starving." He said, avoiding the point.

"Yes. Let's go eat now." Niobe said. She had a malicious gleam in her eyes.

After we ate lunch, I was dragged back into my room.

After a while I got bored, so I took a picture out of my pocket, and examined it.

The picture had me, Nico, and Idalia in it. I studied it for a while, before putting it away, and taking my other picture out.

This one just had me and Nico in it.

"I miss you." I said to it.

Idalia's POV

I was in the cave again, looking around.

I turned to see Will being wrapped up by the snake.

"Will." I said.

The snake had reached his head. My stomach plummeted. He looked at me, and smiled.

"I love you." He whispered. Then he looked past me. "Both of you." I looked around to see Nico standing by me.

I turned back around just in time to see Will get wrapped up by the snake.

"No! Will." I screamed. Tears streaked my face.

I woke up, Amara shaking me.

"Sorry. Nightmare." Then I turned my head in Nico's direction. "Are you okay?" I whispered to him.

"No." He responded. He sounded like he was about to break into tears. I gave him a hug.

"It'll be okay." I said, more reassuring myself than him.

"Thanks." He said.

"What's going on back there?" Apollo asked us.

"I just had the experience of seeing Idalia's dream about Will." He left it at that.

"What exactly happened in it?" Leo asked.

"There was a snake wrapping around Will. It got close to covering his head, and he pretty much said his last goodbye. Then the snake covered his head and-and." I burst into tears again. Amara comforted me.

"Then he died." Nico finished.

Amara's POV

I comforted Idalia, not knowing what it would feel like to watch someone I love die.

Idalia finally calmed down, and turned to Nico.

"Well?" She said. "Care to extend your promise a little?"

"He's fine, as far as I can tell." Nico replied.

I looked to the front of the car. In the mirror, I saw Apollo's face. It was very serious. And he looked a little mad.

Then he looked up at the mirror, and we made eye contact. I looked away.

"How long until we get there?" Leo whined.

"Not too much longer." Apollo replied. Idalia turned to me.

I always thought that in some way, she could see me. I looked into her eyes. They took on a greyish tint now. I wondered if they would always be that way.

"I love you." She whispered. Then she kissed me. I kissed her back.

"Okay, we're here." Apollo said. I broke apart, and took Idalia's hand.

We got out of the car, and walked into the cave. Nobody was there.

"That's not possible. He should be here." Nico said, a little worried.

"Ohhhhhhh." Idalia said. "Run your hand along the walls." Then she walked over to the wall, put her hand on it, and started walking around the cave. It didn't take long for Leo and Nico to do it too.

I was about to, when Apollo dragged me away. We stood by the entrance of the cave.

"What?" I asked. He looked over at Nico, Leo, and Idalia.

"First, thank you for helping Idalia. Second, keep her safe. Third, don't tell her that her dream is going to be real life." He said. I nodded, remembering how Apollo's kids had the gift of prophecy.

"I promise." I said. Then he let me go look with the others.

After twenty minutes of checking and re-checking, we decided that this wasn't where they were talking about. But first, we were going to take a break.

I went outside to get some 'air'. Mainly, I wanted them to have some time alone. I walked out of the cave and walked to side.

I sat down, and leaned back. Right as I did that, a door opened. I almost fell into it. I stood up, and ran back to the mouth of the cave.

"Guys, I think I found the door we were looking for." I said. Everyone was on their feet, following me.

I walked back to where I was, and pushed. It opened again.

"Well." Apollo said. "I better be going. Good luck. Goodbye." Then he left.

We walked into the doorway and walked down a hall. We kept walking, until Idalia stopped.

"Here." She said. "He's in here." We unlocked the door, and stepped into the room. Will was sitting on the ground, holding a picture.

"What do you want?" He asked, not looking up.

"I mean." Nico said. "Just two of your favorite people are over here, waiting for their hugs."

Will's head shot up. His face spread into a grin. Within a millisecond, he was standing up, hugging Nico and Idalia.

Suddenly, the door closed.

"Great." We all muttered at the same time.

There's my chapter. Advice? Thanks for reading.

Peace out.
