AN: Your reviews made me smile! This one is for you! In this chapter, Nico visits Hades.
Disclaimer: OK, whoever believes I am Rick Riordan has some screws loose.
Finally! I can go home! Yes! Wow. I never thought I would hear myself saying that. Sophia was sitting on her bed. She was polishing her knife. Her pink knife. Her pink bejeweled knife. Ug.
I packed my stuff up said goodbye to Sophia, well, actually, I muttered under my breath,
"Sucker"
She heard me. Naturally. I guess because of that one word, six letters, I got chased by an 11 and a half maniac. When it was finally time to leave, I was exhausted, but also excited. But then I realized I had to shadow-travel. Darn it! Oh well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One tiring shadow-travel later…~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I nearly fainted by the time I was home. So, like a loving mother, Persephone scolded me about being weak. Me? Weak? Pshhh, as IF. Well, yeah, probably. Still. I know DAD will give me a warm welcome. In fact as I entered the throne room, he said,
"How's your sibling?"
Much better than usual, trust me. Regardless, I was tired and ticked off at Sophia. I decided to just shrug, but "mom" interrupted my attempt to ignore a question.
Persephone got mad. Wait, sorry, understatement. Persephone became furious. But that all turned around when dad said,
"Well, how's your sister? I asked you something, Nico."
"Sister?"
Persephone sat bolt upright.
"Yay! Another girl in the family! Oh, this is so great! Finally! A demigod half-child! I'm so happy!"
Well no doubt, that made me feels loved.
"Nico! Tell me about your sister!"
I wanted to make her angry so I said,
"Oh. Uh, she's…she's, a person?"
Persephone found that annoying. Well, she usually finds everything annoying, especially me.
"No, I mean, what does she look like?"
I gave it my best shot.
"She's got black hair like, down to her waist, and black-ish gray eyes. She enjoys bedazzling and annoying me. She like humiliating me, angering me, bribing me, well, the list goes on and on."
Then, my "family" reacted just as I thought they would.
Dad laughed.
Demeter complained.
Persephone looked proud.
I hope they're happy. Really happy.
Then, they all said at the same time,
"Well? BRING her here!"
Don't forget, I was exhausted, so I wasn't all that thrilled at that suggestion.
AN: This will continue. I tried to make it kinda long with more dialog and plot. I shall now get back to work. See you soon
