Heya guys, I'm back! So i'm going to be writing more/less, I can't tell. I say this because i'm very sick and feel like i'm dying- so if I never publish another chapter again know that i've died. Anywho, this will probably be one of the last chapters, I know how it's going to end already. This is going to be a Will P.O.V, then the next will be Nico, and the final one will be Nico. This chapter is basically going to be the battle. LOVE YOU LITTLE NERDS! 3

WILL P.O.V.

Minutes after Nico had left, the battle had already begun. I had run out to the strawberry fields- following the crowd- and found myself in the presence of a god. Based on the aura of emotions surrounding the god, I guessed it was either Eros, go of emotions, or a god I didn't know of. I gasped in surprise when I saw who the god was holding in his overlarge hand. The son of hades himself- Nico di Angelo. Despite what he had just said to me, I still considered him my friend and was determined to save him.

But before I could go charging at Eros, the god began to speak. He talked about how Nico had turned down an offer that had cost him the life of his friends, just because he couldn't kill one demigod. I wanted to be mad, but I knew that I would have done the same. And suddenly, I heard the giant of a god call my name.

"Will Solace, please come forward for your execution!" or something like that. Before I could register what happened, I heard a sharp intake of breath that created a wind, making my medium length hair got in my hair and mouth, and I began to sputter and wave my hands in my face.

When I could finally could see again, I saw a sight that made my blood turn to ice and feel myself begin to scream. Nico was slowly falling to the ground, his arms flailing and his legs twisting at odd angles in an attempt to stop himself. My legs began to carry me forward in slow motion, but Percy Jackson beat me there. He caught Nico and set him quickly on the ground. He looked... embarrassed? At a time like this?

Nico simply wiped his hands on his jeans and retrieved his swword from where it had fallen and stuck into the ground by Annabeth's feet. And suddenly, I heard a series of high pitched whistling noises over my head, and heard the large god bellow in pain. When I looked up at him, I saw an array of arrows littering his face, and golden ichor flowling from them.

A look of fury and determination crossed his face, and he swiped his large hand across the crowd of demigods. Hundreds of assorted monsters began rising out of the ground all over the crowd. The god himself began to shrink, and I watched in awe as he pulled out the most amazing sword I had ever seen. It was a golden white, with sculptures of different men and women kissing, hugging, holding hands, etc. You would have thought it would have been cheesy looking, but it was weirdly breathtaking.

I saw him and Nico began to spar through the crowd. I began to make my way towards him, but was intercepted by an empousa. She had an ugly grin on her burnt and disfigured face, and I reached for my bow. After I had shot her straight through the face, I again began making my way towards the main battle.

It continued like this for a while, and I steadily made my way towards the main fight. I was probably a couple of yards away when I glanced over aand saw it. Eros, grinning maliciously, and Nico- weapon lying feet away- with his eyes closed and arms out wide.

I watched in horror as Eros rose his breathtaking sword over his head, aimed right at the son of Hades. Will was silent as he bolted to when his friend stood, about to be eliminated by the despicable god of emotions. He was determined to save him, no matter what it took. He watched as the god began to swing downward, as Nico squeezed his eyes closed tighter.

Will took the one final, most important leap of faith in his life- and he dived in front of the blade.

STILL NOT THE END

Only two more chapters, but I will be writing another story when this one is done- so watch out for it! I will be updating again tonight, probably finishing it! LOVE YOU LITTLE NERDS 3!
