Chapter Four

~Nico's POV~

One last jump, and we appeared on Half-Blood Hill. I heard the war cries, before it went silent.

"Reyna?!" Many Romans questioned with happiness.

Before anyone could reply or move, an iris message showed up in front of me.

When it connected, it showed the seven of the prophecy, minus Percy, unconscious tied up surrounded by monsters.

The silence was broken by gasps.

I stared wide eyed at the message as Piper woke up.

She groaned and moved her head up.

A deep laughter of a giant started. "Well, if it isn't the seven of the great prophecy. Looks like the mighty have fallen." Boomed Porphyrion, the king of giants.

That seemed to wake everyone else, except Jason.

Annabeth glared at him. "What did you did to Percy?"

I paled a little at hearing something happened to Percy, but I had a feeling it was bad for us.

Porphyrion laughed again. "We didn't do anything."

They frowned. "But, Percy would never do those things." Hazel cried.

What did Percy do?

Laughter filled the monster filled area again. "Please. You don't know what Percy would or wouldn't do. You don't know Percy." Out of the shadows came a girl who look to be around Piper's age.

She looked pretty like an Aphrodite girl, but with a hard and cold face. Black hair, and hazel eyes.

"What do you mean? Where is he?" Annabeth demanded.

"He's a little... preoccupied at the moment." The girl replied with a sickly sweet smile, while twirling her hair.

"Where is he?" Porphyrion demanded.

The girl slowly turned and raised an eyebrow. "I have a deal with Gaea, not you. You're not the boss of me."

"Gaea put me in charge." The king of giants countered.

"Yeah, and I can tell Percy we aren't helping. We'll disappear in a heartbeat, never to be seen again."

"Percy betrayed us?" Reyna asked out loud. I glanced around and everyone had the same thought, 'Would Percy really betray us?'

I looked back to the one way iris message.

"Or we could destroy Gaea's whole army. And, you know I can." The girl said grinning, as Porphyrion opened his mouth in reply.

I saw all the monsters shivered in fear.

'Who is this girl?' I thought.

She suddenly smiled. "Took you long enough."

Turning around, she was facing the tree line of the monster made clearing.

Walking out of the woods with their head held high was Percy.
