Heartless Part 2
Nico POV
I stumble back from the first punch. "You," she throws another punch, "stupid," another, "heartless," another,"ass-hole." the red head says with her still curled up into a fist. Rachel Elizabeth Dare stood standing in front of me looking like she was ready to attack again. "Rachel, it wasn't…." "Your fault. Yeah, yeah you've said a thousand times." she says plopping down on my bed. "I have, damment I need a new line." I say trying to get Rachel to ease up, but she's pissed. She gets up slap me hard on the face and knees where Apollo doesn't. "Ouch, that hurt like hell." "Well now you see how those girls feel. You get drunk and flirt with them then go back to their cabin and…..ugh Nico. Is there something going on? Have you been hanging with them again." she asks me with concern in her eyes. I suddenly find my feet vary interesting. "I don't to talk about it." I mumbled. "Come on Nico talk to me I'm your best friend, you can tell me anything. You know this." "I said I don't want to talk about." I say walking towards the door with Rachel right behind me. "If you want to talk I'm right here for you." She gives me a quick hug and leaves, I watch her go and then go back to bed for some much needed rest, but before I could even get under the covers there was a knock on my door, I thought it was Rachel about to drag me to breakfast. 5 get to the door and open it to see Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase making out. My heart broke into a million pieces at the sight. I quickly recovered and clear my throat." What are you two lover birds annoying me for? "I say with a look of boredom on my face. "We just came to ask you if you wanted to go to breakfast with us." Percy asks me. "I'll pass I need some sleep." I turn and get ready to hop into bed, but, "Are you sure?" Annabeth questions me. "Yeah, Anna." I say with a smirk, while Annabeth huffs. I slam the the door, lock it, and put a door in front of it to keep any and every one out. Or so I thought.
Thalia POV
I turn and the to see the barrel of the gun and the man. The short, stout, blob of a man with little hair. "So we meet again Thalia Grace." "Swine." I was surprise to see this pig. Swine was one of my mother old boyfriends who got her addicted to coke for a while, but I had struck him with lightening and he died. He moat have known what I was thinking because he laughed. A harsh, ear-splitting laugh, that same laugh he laughed when he would have my mom begging at his feet for more drugs. This ignited my anger. I tried to grab for my knife, but a pink blur lashed at my hand. I look to see the tail coming from….Swine. WTF!? The tail was curly and pink just like a pig. I could see Swine face and hands were the same color as his tail and small ivory tusk sprouting out of the corners of his mouth. His nose starts to turn stout and flat. "What are you?" I say with obvious disgust. "I am Turpis Swine, son of Ares and Circe!" he bellows. I couldn't help it I laugh my ass off. Swine looks at me with utter confusion. "What is so gods damn funny, little girl." I kept laughing. I guess he was getting piss now because his tusk started to grow and his started making pig noises. I was now on the floor dying laughing at him. This only made him only angrier. Now he charges me, head down, and running right at me. I took out my spear and charged it up, but before he is stopped in his tracks a hand goes through his chest and out the other side. "You whore" he says coughing up blood as the hand comes out. "Lady Artemis, are you okay?" "Thalia you were cutting it too close. These girls were almost shipped off." she says wiping the blood off her hand with Swine's shirt. "Yeah I know. We were caught off guard by Lycoan's pack, but Lupa helped us out with them. "Oh good, Lupa was involved. I've told her about this exercise was important. This is her second time interfering with our affairs. How can a goddess be so inconsiderate." she huffs a little. Her back was turned to me so she didn't see me roll my eyes. "Let's get out of here. It reeks of men." Artenis says with disgust. We walk out the room leaving Swine body to turn to golden dust, Weird, I always thought he was a monster, but not an actually monster. Oh well he's gone not. "Hunters! You know the drill pile them high and burn them low. Non-hunters follow me." Artemis orders then starts to walk out and I follow but she stops me and, "Thalia stay here and supervise. Make sure that none of the girls get their hands on the...um…"special stuff". "I gave her a questionable look, but she dismisses it and keep walking with five or six girl following her. "You heard Artemis. Get to work!"
