"What the hell is a demigod!?!? Creatures like that are NOT supposed to exist!! Who are you?! And why am i in danger!?!?"

I had a feeling going off on him might have just given him a headache but at this point i really didn't care.

I needed answers and i wanted them now.

He pinched the bridge of his nose and squeezed his eyes closed probably trying to shut out my ranting some how.

"Can you please be quiet! I'm trying to think!" he said through gritted teeth.

Being the stubborn girl i am i wasn't having it.

"Think about what?! You're supposed to be answering my questions!!"i raised my voice a little louder causing a few drunkards' attention towards us.

They gave us concerned looks but they could literally go fuck themselves. I turned my attention back at this goth looking dude hoping he'll spill some information already.

I sighed. We weren't going to get anywhere with my yelling at him.

"Can i at least know your name?" i asked calmly.

He removed his hand from his face,opened his dark bottomless brown eyes and looked at me.

"Nico Di Angelo"

Was all i got from him because just then something crashed into the window and sent glass,broken liquor bottles(drenching us in the process) and us flying backwards.

We skidded across the dirty floor and slammed against a rack of more beer bottles. Some crashed on us having more stupid liquor spilled all over us.

The disgusting smell of it burned my nose holes and almost made me woozy.

By now i could feel warm liquid oozing from my right arm and a stinging pain come with it.

I looked at where i felt the pain and true enough my arm was bleeding. A few chunks of glass protruded from my wounded skin.

Something roared in front of us.
That gorgon thing!!

Nico was up and about attacking that thing head on with a black sword and all i could do was stare in shock and wonder how or why he wasn't dead yet!

Who is this guy..? Where did he really come from??

He slashed and bashed but.this thing didn't come alone.

It brought two other hideous friends with it. They all looked  very similar to the first one but the color of the rags they wore were different. One was wearing brown cloths,one green and the other a faded blue.

"The girl...hand over the girl!!"

The monster with the blue cloths hissed...i guess she was in charge. Fear over took me paralysed my body. I was momentarily helpless.

Despite all the screaming, shouting and panic going on around us these creatures weren't fased by them. They just directly glared in my direction.

"What do you want with her!?" I heard Nico ask them.

"Wouldn't you like to know young demigod." the green robed one sneered.

"Quiet Fyria! She is much too valuable to be left in your hands,boy. Even for a ssson of hadesss."

I got up carefully not wanting to loose balance and fall on more glass. As my blood rushed out of my body i felt a little light headed. I held onto a shelf nearest to me for support.

I was desperate and eager to get some kind of answer,so if Nico wasn't gonna give me any maybe they would..

"Why am i 'much too valuable'? What am i?" i managed to say through my dry mouth.

All three of the monsters' turned their snake infested heads at me.

The blue one looked at me sympathetically WHICH WAS FUCKING WEIRDING ME OUT!!

"On my poor dear,the future that awaits you is more than what your mother foresaw. She has doomed this world by simply letting you live."

I felt like someone literally set me on fire and the air from my lungs had been punched out.

My mother!? She's been out the picture since the very beginning!!

"What do you mean,who am i?" i croaked.

The green one spoke,
"You'd have to come with us if you want to know who you truly are,Hellica dear..."

Her offer was tempting but...i knew already that they were up to no good.

"Sorry but the offer isn't up for discussion." Nico finally spoke up.

The monsters were about to charge Nico but they shrunk into the ground before either of the opponents could attach each other.

It was then all the adrenaline left my body. I collapsed to the floor and more glass pierced my skin.

If i had anymore blood left in me it would have seeped out of my fresh wounds.

My eyesight was getting botched with black dots as i was falling into unconsciousness.

I heard feet shuffling towards  me and someone pick me up.

I heard voice coming above me but they sounded far away and i couldn't quite understand them.

"I'm too young to die!" is what i wanted my last words to be but sadly they weren't,they were "who am i?"

It was then the ever so welcoming darkness overtook me and all pain left my body and i became limp.
