Avengers of Olympus

Chapter 12*Nico

"Give me the Gods dam key!" I shouted at the man at the front desk in front of the Empire State building.

"There's no key kid, get lost." he sighed still reading his magazine.

"Give. Me. The. Key. Unless you want an army of the undead in this very lobby I suggest you give me the key." I said in a sickly sweet voice.

He looked up from his magazine and jumped up from shock when he saw me. "I'm so sorry Mr. Nico, I'll get you your key right away."

He handed me the key and I walked over to the elevators grumbling about terrible security gaurds.

I stepped into the elevator listening to the Gods awful playlist the Apollo picked out. Who still listens to Any Way You Want It?

When the ride stopped I quickly jumped out of the elevator to get away from the music and made my way towards the throne room. I made a pit stop to visit the memorial they made for Annabeth at Percy's request.

A giant statue of Annabeth came into view. She had her blonde hair billowing behind her, her armor strapped to her, dagger in hand and her grey eyes set in determination. All around the room were pictures people had taken of her life, most of them were with Percy, but there were some without.

One of the statues they had of her had her holding hands with Percy. Aphrodite had drawn the image and Athena had sculpted it.

I realized I was stalling and had to tell the council their hero was missing. The only ones who wouldn't care would be Ares and Dionysus, the hated everyone.

When I arrived at the throne room the only one there was Hestia tending the flames. "I know what you came for and I will call upon my family," she smiled.

"Thank you Lady Hestia," I bowed.

"It's just Hestia Nico." she smiled.

"Well thank you just Hestia." I joked.

She laughed before the Gods all flashed in.

"Why do you call upon us sister?" Zeus' voice boomed.

"Nico has something to tell all of us." Hestia told him.

Zeus nodded," by all means do tell us your news."

"Percy was kidnapped."

(Wanted to end it here, but it was way to short)

"By who!" Poseidon yelled.

"Oceanus, Tartarus and a norse God named Loki." I explained.

"How did this happen?" he asked through gritted teeth.

"Percy and his friend Steve were walking through an alley way when they spotted Loki on top of a building. Oceanus and Tartarus then made themselves present. They flashed behind them and threatened Steve and Percy's parents." I told him.

"What did Percy do?" Athena asked listening to me. Percy had grown on her since Annabeth died and they used to even have sesions where they would try and let her go.

"They took him." I told them.

"Well what else?" she demanded.

"Nothing else. We've heard exactly notbing from or about him." I told them.

"He's most likely trapped in Tartarus where he is getting tortured by them." Athena thought out loud.

An eerie silence filled the room as they let her thoughts sink in.

"That big brain of yours is not always the most helpful thing," Apollo said," so in the words of everybody here, please shut up!"

"No let her keep talking, we don't need the punk anyways." Ares said.

"He saved all our ass' Ares, even yours, why do you hate him so much?" Demeter asked glaring at him.

Ares just shrugged and looked back towards the council.

"A quest will need to be prepared to save Perseus." Zeus said.

I thought over everything I said and realized I missed a major key detail.

"So is now the wrong time to mention there's a war coming?"

Not my longest part, but I'm still proud of it. I got my ears pierced today. I never actually wanted to, never thought you needed extra holes in your body.
Peace out Unicorns ✌
