A/n- I started to realize that I haven't put a disclaimer in. Well I do NOT own any characters except Hannah, Calista, Emily, and Paige. So there is the disclaimer. I would like to give a shout out to all my lovely reviewers. It is all of your wonderful reviews that keep me writing. Now on with the chapter =) Enjoy as always.
Nico's POV
I laughed at Percy's comment then I gave him the 'something's-wrong' look. He raised his eyebrow. "How could she know that was Ancient Greek? She must be a monster."
"You are right Nico di Angelo," the teacher screeched.
"Damnit, I was doing well on not getting kick out," Percy said, as the teacher transformed into a fury. "Is there something you can do, like tell it to go away?"
I pondered it for a minute, knowing we didn't have long before it would attack. "I, Nico di Angelo, son of Hades, demand you return to my father!" I shouted.
The fury looked at me, shaking its head. "Who are you to tell me to leave when there is a very tasty snack of half-bloods in front of me?"
"Because my father will banish you into the depths of Tartarus, with the father of the god, if you kill me," I reminded it. "Now, leave. Or I will kill you."
"I will get Percy Jackson soon enough!" it screeched, bursting into flames.
"Percy, the mist!" I demanded.
Percy's POV
I stood in front of the class, snapping my fingers like Thalia had taught me. "Our teacher went to the bathroom. Our papers weren't written in Ancient Greek, they were written in English. They were so good they got a's. Nico isn't the son of Hades, and we aren't half-bloods."
I sat down next to Nico. "Is that the best you can do?"
"Yes," I replied. "Now we need to contact Chiron."
We stood, leaving the classroom before another teacher or student tried to attack us. I knew it was a bad idea having two sons of the big three in one building for school. "We should've known this would have happened sooner or later," Nico said.
"Yeah, I know. Do you have a drachma?" I said, holding my hand opened. He placed a coin in my hand, and I formed a rainbow with water. I said what was needed and soon Chiron appeared in the rainbow.
"Percy, Nico," he greeted. "What's wrong, young heroes?"
"We almost got attacked by another fury. Thankfully Nico scared it away," I replied. Chiron nodded.
"You two need to come back to camp immediately," he replied.
"We're going to get Annabeth, she needs to talk to you as well," I said.
"Be safe, and hurry," Chiron said before waving his hand through the rainbow.
We made a quick stop by my house. "Mom!" I said loudly.
"Percy, Nico, what are you doing home so early?" she asked, holding Paige.
I pulled my little sister into my arms, "We got attacked. We are to return to camp immediately. But we are going to get Annabeth from school because she needs to talk to Chiron as well." I looked down at Paige and played with her black hair. She started to laugh.
"Okay, sweetie, be safe," Mom said, taking Paige back. Paige started to cry. I kissed Paige on the forehead, and kissed my mom on the cheek.
"Bye," I waved as I left the room.
Annabeth's POV
I was sitting in English, trying to pay attention, but I had a feeling something bad was about to happen. As usual I was right. I heard Calista said, "What are your friends doing here?"
"What are you talking about? They still should be in school," I replied.
"Well they aren't," she replied pointing to the door. I saw them looking around. Nico shoved his elbow into Percy's ribs and then whisper something. They flung the door open.
"Percy! Nico! What are you doing here?" I exclaimed.
"We need to go now," Nico replied, pulling me from my chair.
"Where do you think you're going Ms. Chase? And you two need to leave before I call the resource officer," my teacher said.
"Okay, were leaving," Percy said. I barely heard him say to Nico, "Shadow travel us, now!"
I felt the familiar urge as Nico travelled us back to camp. We landed in the big house. "Always making the greatest entrances I see," Chiron laughed.
"Well it wouldn't have been the greatest if they didn't shadow travel me out of my class," I protested.
"I see. Percy, Nico, please tell me what happened," Chiron turned his focus to the boys.
"Wait! Did you get attacked?" I demanded.
"Yes, now just listen," Percy said impatiently. He launched into the story with the help of Nico. They told of how they were attacked and what they did after that.
"I knew it was a bad idea for you two to go to the same school," I replied when they finished.
"I know that now," Percy said.
"What did you do to get the teacher to attack you?" Chiron asked.
Percy's POV
Damn, I was hoping he wouldn't ask. "She assigned us to write a poem. Nico and I wrote ours, both finding ours to be excellent poems. But when we turned them in, we found out that we accidently wrote in Ancient Greek instead of English." Annabeth started laughing to the point of almost crying. "Hey it's not funny. We didn't mean to. We realized the teacher wasn't that good when she told us it was Ancient Greek."
"Well, next time, boys, try not to write in Ancient Greek," Chiron said, shaking his head, laughing slightly. "Wait, Nico, how did you get rid of the monster?"
"I threaten it that I would kill it or if it killed me that dad would send him to the depths of Tartarus," Nico replied proudly.
"I would expect nothing less from the son of Hades," Chiron glanced at him.
"But I have to go," Nico said.
"It's not safe," I protested.
"I'm not welcome here, I've told you that before," Nico said. "I've never been welcomed here."
Chiron looked at Nico, "You are always welcome here. We will build you a cabin. Annabeth," he said turning to her. "I wish that you make the blueprints to Nico's cabin. Of course, make sure you have everything that Nico requests. I want this done by this Friday." Annabeth hurried off to her cabin to grab the laptop she was given. "And I will have a table made for you to sit at during dinner. As always you can sit where ever you wish during breakfast and lunch," he said, turning to Nico again. "You will be living here by no later than two weeks from this Friday."
Nico nodded his head, "Thank you sir."
"You deserve it!" I exclaimed.
"Until then, you are more than welcome to sit with Percy at Poseidon's table during dinner and sleep in Percy's cabin," Chiron said. "Now run along, you have much planning to do with Annabeth."
We left the big house, heading for my cabin. "Annabeth, where are you!" I yelled.
"Right here, Seaweed Brain," she said, coming out of her cabin.
"We can use my cabin to plan, so we won't be bothered by the others," I said, allowing them to enter my cabin. It was cleaner then it was when I left it last summer because I cleaned up when we came to camp a week ago. "Nico, you can sleep here. Use any drawer you wish. Bathroom's through there," I pointed out. "Just don't take my bed or Tyson's and we won't have problems," I said, laughing.
"Thanks," Nico replied, sitting on the bed he had claimed.
"I'm going to talk with Susan and Kyle to see how they were adjusting," I replied, leaving my cabin.
Annabeth's POV
It was my first time designing a building that would be showed off to the whole camp. I sat down on Percy's bed, with my laptop in my lap. "So what do you wish it to be?"
"Dark," Nico replied. "No sunlight coming in. On second thought put six windows in but make sure that each has heavy, black curtains. I want it sort of like this cabin but instead of the blues and greens I want black, dark purples, and dark reds. Two beds, one against east and west walls. I want my door to face south. I want my bathroom to be that the end of the bed on the east side. Dressers and shelves I want lined up against the north wall."
I drew for hours. Thankfully I wrote down what he wanted, because the next thing I knew Percy was waking me up. "Wise Girl, you need to wake up."
"Seaweed Brain?" I asked, rubbing my eyes.
"Yes?" He replied.
"Can I sleep in here tonight?" I asked, setting my laptop on the ground. He smiled then he walked over to his dresser.
He tossed me a pair of p.j. pants and one of his camp half-blood shirts. "Put them on and yes you can stay in here tonight."
I walked into his bathroom. I quickly change, and curled up in his bed while he changed. "Wise Girl," he said.
"What?" I asked, trying to sound innocent.
"That's my bed," he said. It was a queen sized bed, like the two other beds in his cabin. Just like the one at his house, his covers were blues and greens.
"I know," I replied, patting the bed behind me. He shrugged and crawled into bed. "Night, Seaweed Brain."
"Night, Wise Girl. Oh and if we get into trouble, I'm blaming you," he said. I giggled, curling up closer to him. I went to sleep quickly.
"Mason?" Alyssia asked.
"Yes, Aly?" I replied, looking down at the little girl in my lap.
"Mom and dad aren't ever coming back are they?" she questioned. I didn't know how to tell her. "Please, don't lie."
"I don't think so," I replied honestly.
"Why? Don't they love us?" she asked another question that I couldn't quiet tell her, because I didn't want to admit it to myself.
"I thought they did but that was years ago, when you were just born. I thought they would protect us forever, but I had to grow up, be a man, and take care of you when they left," I said, looking down at her, knowing she was crying. "Don't get me wrong now, Alyssia. I love you. I didn't mean that I didn't want to take care of you or that I mind taking care of you. I don't, I just wish I didn't have to at such a young age," I tried to justify it, but I knew she was already upset.
"How old where you?" she asked, trying to keep her voice from breaking.
"I was 8 and you were barely 2. It was hard, but know you know how to fight and can protect yourself. We have gotten so lost over the years, but our hope to see mom and dad have gotten us through. We need to make it to camp now more than ever," I replied, playing with her thick, dirty, black curls.
"Why haven't we tried to get a raft and sail there?" Alyssia asked.
"We haven't thought about. You're a genius, Aly. We need to make a raft, then I will know where we are going," I kissed her head.
I woke up with a start, still in Percy's arms. He was wide awake, obviously waiting for me to wake up. "Another dream?" he asked. I just nodded my head.
