WILL

'Tails.' Annabeth says, catching the coin. 'Hazel you're with us, Bianca you're with Jason, Piper and Will.'
'Got it.' Bianca says, looking to me briefly. I'm glad she'll be with us. If anything happens to her at least I'll be there to fix it.
'Alright.' Percy says, 'then we're set.'
'No time to waste, I guess.' Piper says.
Together we move out of camp, into the forest. Hazel stops us.
'This should be good.' She says, 'Bianca, this work for you?'
'Yeah. Yeah this works.' She says.
'Two separate entrances, we go out separate ways.' Annabeth says, 'and we'll meet again at the doors. Everyone set?'
There's a murmur of assurance, before everyone looks to Bianca and Hazel. They face away from each other.
'Alright.' Bianca says, kneeling on the ground. Hazel holds her hands out. The ground starts crumbling, falling in on itself. Two holes open in the ground - Hazel's a little more defined, but Bianca's just as useable.
'Alright everyone in.' Hazel says, 'we can't hold it long.'
Piper and Jason head in, but Percy holds me back.
'Look, if I had it my way, we wouldn't be in two groups.' He says, 'but it's smart. So...just. Look after yourself. Nico needs you alive and safe just as much as you need him to be.' He looks to Bianca, 'and watch out for her, okay?'
'Okay.' I say, before Bianca takes my hand and rushes us into the underworld. Her door closes up. It's just us four.
