This is more of a drabble than a one shot. Kinda depressing. Okay, just depressing.
Percy froze as the machine collided with the power lines. The whole body sparked with electricity for a moment before the cables snapped and the machine collided with the ground. The ground shook and Percy was running. She couldn't be dead. Not her. No. Percy had promised. She had promised Nico she would keep his sister safe.
Percy heard Grover somewhere to her right, but ignored him. She had to find Bianca. She had to. When she reaches the same hole the daughter of Hades had gotten in she didn't hesitate to jump in herself. Not three seconds after she had entered the body she heard footsteps echo behind her. A quick look over her shoulder revealed Zoë running in too. They ran as fast as they could, discovering that the whole body was made of tiny chambers, passageways that connected seemingly random rooms and shafts. The gears that made the machine work were everywhere slowing the group of demigods down far too much for Percy's liking.
Finally they reached the head. But Bianca wasn't there. There was no body, nothing. The only thing indicating that Bianca had been there was her knife sticking out of the control panel. There were scorch marks on the floor, like there had been a fire.
Zoë and Thalia exchanged a look, both grim. "Let's search the rest of the body." Zoë, for once, agreed without hesitation with Thalia. They searched the body, literally from head to toe, until the sun came up.
No Bianca.
No body.
Percy had broken her promise.
Sorry guys, but I kind of missed this in the series, the actual search for Bianca's body.
Now, on to happier news. I have a poll up for who you guys want Percy to meet first. Tyson, Rachel, Dick Grayson as Dick Grayson or Dick Grayson as Robin. Next chapter for Ocean's Daughter is almost done!
