The plan

As Hestia rested me and Will sat on the chairs in the far corner of his room. "So whats the plan?" Will whispered. I thought about it for a few seconds before coming up with something solid and not too dangerous.

"We have to get Percy, Rachel and Annabeth and bring them here so we can put our brains together. That way we have more plans and counter arguments to plans. It'll stop us form irrational thinking" I stated and Will nodded in response. "I'll get Rachel and you get the other two. They are more likely to listen to you. If Luke stops you then say I asked for them to come" I added. Will took a few seconds before nodding and heading out. I then walked to Rachel's cell and walked in it.

Before I knew it I was against a wall with a knife to my throat. "A knife? Are you flirting with me Miss Dare?" I smirked. She scanned my face before putting the knife down and staring at me.

"What do you want?" She asked.

"Me and Will want to free the idiots. I chose you to help us so are you in or not?" I asked. Rachel looked taken aback before looking down with confusion written all over her beau- average looking face.

"Why me?" She questioned. I didn't even have to think before the answer spilled out.

"Because you're important to me, you piece of shit" I answered. I quickly rolled my eyes. "You in or not?" I added.

"I'm in."

Me and Rachel sneaked back into Will's room and saw the couple already there. Annabeth slapped me, not surprising, then hugged me and lectured me, sort of surprising. Percy just shot me a short smile before seeing Rachel next to me and hugging her, making sure she's okay. I guess he's a good friend, but again I wouldn't know anything about friendship. Common trait of Hades kids.

"Okay we need a solid plan. I'll be able to keep Luke away for only a little bit, a few hours tops" I looked down. The others groaned in distaste and I realised what that sounded like. "Not like that! Jeez get your minds out the gutter" I shook my head.

"We made that noise cause non of us ever liked your relationship with Luke" Annabeth admitted.  I nodded. I never really understood why they hated it until a few days ago. I finally started realising how toxic the two of us are.

"So why are we here?" Percy asked.

"So I can kill you and put your head on a stick so I can hand it over to Krones" I said blankly. As the demigods stared at me horrified I rolled my eyes. "Just kidding"

"Was that answer really needed?" Annabeth questioned.

"If you don't want a sarcastic answer don't fucking ask a stupid question" I answered. Rachel snorted a little, bringing unwanted attention to herself. She then looked down embarrassed and I had to admit that it was slightly cute.

"Okayyyy, what's the plan?" Will asked.

"I'm going to distract Luke while you guys go Tartures and free the gods. I'll help you by opening up a portal a few feet away and I'll give you the keys" I stated. The 4 thought about it an huddled in a corner, talking.

After a while they all stood in a line and looked at me. "We're gonna do it but you have to swear and the river Styx" Rachel crossed her hands.

"I swear on the river Styx that I will do everything in my power to distract Luke and I'll help protect the idiot gods" I rolled my eyes and shook hands with Percy.

Then I opened the crack and they all jumped in.
