Prompt from Lily: "Dude, I am SERIOUSLY going to kill you." (Can I just say that you've become my favorite reviewer? Not just because you have such enthusiasm, but because you said, "Yo." right after the fangirly-type comment. It seriously made my day. Also, I love putting Nico in, because, *whispers* He's my favorite character. Ssh. So I'm glad you like the Nico bits! You seriously rock, by the way.)

Now onto the chapter!

"Psst, Mr. Underworld."

"Uh, hey, Percy..."

"Would you miiiiind..."

Silence for several moments.

"Er, would I mind what, exactly?"

"Oh. Would you mind giving an interview?"

"An interview... For what?"

"Olympus Weekly."

"Olympus– what? What is that?"

"The camp newspaper!"

"... So why isn't it called Half-Blood Hill News?"

"BECAUSE OLYMPUS WEEKLY SOUNDED COOLER OKAY?"

"Uh, if you say so. Anyyyway, I have, er, important Underworldly... things... to do. 'Kay. Bye."

Footsteps, and Percy's muttering, "I just wanted an interview... Oh!" Percy's voice went from sad to very, very excited. "I'll do 'A Day In The Life Of Nico DiAngelo'! They'll love that!"

Someone cleared their throat from near the camera. "Uh, Percy, who are you talking to and what are you talking about?"

"Uh... Myself... And my newspaper!"

"You mean you're one-man newspaper?"

"...Shut up, Mark."

Angry footsteps lead away from someone laughing, then kids talking began in the background, along with a basketball bouncing.

"Hello, Hades cabin. Hello... Creepy... Skeleton... Ah. So." The sound of the camera hitting glass, then "Ah!" Leaves rustled. "Heh, almost fell."

Silence, then the sound of springs, as if someone had jumped on a mattress. Several moments of silence, then a knock. The springs again, then someone walking on hardwood floor. The door opened, and two "Hi"s as now someone else walked into the Hades cabin.

A gasp from behind the camera, then leaves rustling, and the sound of a door slamming open. Two simultaneous yells of "AhPercyWhat—?" Before Percy said, in a weird announcer-type accent, "So far we have found out that Nico DiAngelo, Prince of the Underworld himself, eats bagels with a girl. What is this girl's name? How about I—"

"Leave?" Nico, menacing. Footsteps, a yell of "Ow dude that's my wrist you really have a killer grip" and the door slammed.

"What exactly were you doing?"

"Getting my 'A Day In The Life Of Nico' thing for my news—"

"Oh my gods! I am seriously going to kill you! Can you leave me alone? Please?"

"Oh, um, sure."

A sigh. "Thanks."

Footsteps could be heard, a door opening, and, briefly, Nico saying, "Sorry, Percy, ya know, kinda a–" before the door closed. A sigh from behind the camera.

"Well what am I supposed to do now?"

Suddenly, a roar of kids yelling, and the clamor of metal hitting metal.

"Oh, right, there are viciously violent battles every couple hours around here."

The roaring got louder, and faintly, there was Percy saying, in a sing-song type voice, "At least there weren't any skeleton warriors this time."
