Here's chapter 3. I hope you guys like it.
Nico
I punch the nearest wall. "Come on Nico, get it together. You can't feel that way. It's not right. He doesn't feel the same way." I say to myself. It doesn't work. That feeling I try to suppress. That awful, heartbreaking feeling that I try to...to hide from. Love. Every since I confronted Eros/Cupid at Diocletian's tomb, it's only gotten worst.
"Does he get under your skin that much?" I turn around and find no one there. " If my heart wasn't so cold then I might think it to be sweet. You love him, he loves her, and she loves..."
"Who are you and what do you want?" I ask while picking up my sword." "You demigods and your ridiculous feelings. " the voice says mockingly. I know that annoying vioce anywhere.
"Melinoe!" I grab my sword and summon skeleton warriors. A extremely pale girl with huge purple eyes, long black hair, wearing a black dress steps out of the shadows. She waves her hand the warrior are gone.
"Is that anyway to greet your sister? Come give me a hug." she says spreading here arms, but I know its all fake.
"Cut the bullcrap, Melinoe. Why are you here?"
"I was just in the neighborhood and..."
"MELINOE, don't fucking patronize me," I growl.
"Well, you don't have to be so mean about it. Father has a quest for you."she says pouting a little.
"What type of quest" I ask, lowering my sword a little. "Its a quest to retrieve something for him. "
"Well, what is it. I don't plan to go on a quest blind."
"I don't know. All father said was to tell you he has a quest for you and then you go to Chiron and the be a good demigood and do as father has ask you to." That does it. I charge and slash the at Melinoe. The sword passes straight through her and she laugh. "Foolish demigod." she says as she starts to glow and I cover my eyes before she incenerates me.
"Gods I hate when family comes to visit." I try to go to sleep, but I can't now. I take a quick shower and look for some jeans. I hear some knocking on my door." "Go away." I say to the person at the door.
"Nico, its us. Open up. We have something important to tell you." It was Jason.
"Nobody's home. So go away." I said again ignoring them.
" Nico, its a new prophecy and it involves you and your quest for Hades." It was Rachael that time. I open the door and see Jason, Rachael, Leo, Piper, Annabeth, and Percy.
"Can we come in" Jason ask.
"Might as well since it would be rude of me not to." I say. Rachael hops on my bed, while the other sit on the other bunks looking a little nervous. "So I'm guessing all you know about the quest." They all knod. "So dad isn't going to let me do this myself." I mumble to myself. "What was the prophecy." I say running a hand through my hair.
An immortal will fall
Eight must answer the call
To find something that was lost
But at a great cost
The son of Hades must lead
To complete this godly deed
To win or lose
Only Death can choose
Rachael finished. I looked around at everyone, hoping someone would have any clue to what any of the lines meant. "Nico, this mean your the leader of this quest. It says,"The son of Hades must lead", your the only son of Hades we know." Annabeth said. "And the eight of us are the eight the prophecy speak of." Annabeth continues
. "So who's the immortal that's going to die?" I ask.
"I don't know, but we will find out."Annabeth gravely.
"All this overwelming and I haven't had any sleep yet so, um, everyone go back to your cabins and prepared for the quest," I say feeling claustophobic. "And somebody tell Chiron about the quest." As soon as everyone has left I go outside, grab a cigarette, and smoked. The smoke filling my lungs, trapping all my problems and worries in the smoke cloud. When the cloud of smoke disappears, I feel...somewhat better.
So that's the end of chapter, but I need reviews so I can improve the story of it needs to be improve. And thanks Bella for tip. SonofHades11 out!
