Bronze Gold Shadow (Percy Jackson/Teen Wolf Crossover)

Cabin Nine's Invention

"Okay, question," I said. I lunged, Nico dodging the  strike. 

"In Italiano," Nico urged. He sliced at me and I stepped back from his blade. He lunged forward going on the offensive. I made my way backward, staying away from his sword. I sidestepped and made my way to the side. I slashed at his arm, nicking his sleeve. 

"E' per tutti noi," I informed. It's for all of us. 

Nico turned, glaring a bit at the fact that I had cut his t-shirt. "Time!" he called to Will.

Will nodded, releasing Rue. She jumped to her paws and ran over. I crouched down a little and scratched her head. The Cocoa Puffs looked up from where they had been playing at the edge of the arena. 

"When everyone comes back to camp, what are we gonna do about the nightmares?" I asked. "My siblings aren't gonna know what to do, we might end up scaring the newer campers as well. So what do we do?" 

"She has a point," Will agreed. 

Nico paused, sheathing his sword. His black eyes narrowed slightly on the ground as he thought it over. "What about... Cabin Thirteen? You guys can stay in there." 

"Really?" I asked. "Hades would be okay with that?" 

"You've slept there before," Nico reminded. He smiled at the tusked and feline Cocoa Puff as they went running past. "We're comfortable in there. We just need Chiron's approval." 

"I think we'll be okay," Will said. "After all, he hasn't stopped us before." 

"We can only hope," I finished. 

========================================================================

I held onto Rue's leash when the first van arrived. She wasn't used to lots of people. I wasn't sure how she would react. 

"She gonna be okay?" Will asked on the bench beside me. 

"I don't know," I admitted. "I hope so." 

"I think she'll be fine," Nico said as he tossed a strawberry to a Cocoa Puff. "She lived in a shelter before right? There had to have been a lot of people there." 

"It was mostly dogs," I reminded. "I just wanna make sure she doesn't bite someone." 

The campers came down the hill. Some with injuries, others without. Some had backpacks and duffle bags, others barely had the clothes on their backs. 

"Will!" Cecil called. 

"Time to go to work," Will said, rolling up his sleeves. He ran over and pulled Mickey's arm over his shoulders. 

"Liz!" Layla yelled in excitement. Her rainbow died hair tips flew in the wind behind her. I smiled as she ran over. She slowed down and wrapped me in a hug. Rue barked a little, confused. She pulled away and looked down at her. "Well hello sweetie," she said. She offered her hand for my pup to sniff. 

"When did you get a dog?" Aiden asked. 

"September," I told the son of Morpheus.

"He's cute," Owen cut in. 

"She," I corrected. 

"Get the gender right," Nico advised. 

I could see the moment they noticed the Cocoa Puffs. Owen's face turned green, Aiden went pale (well, paler) and Layla's eyes went wide. The campers that followed all stopped when they noticed the black mass of demons. I saw Mark from Cabin Five go for his sword. Will noticed from the edge of the green, he stopped, ready to go back to his boyfriend.
