I Wish You LoveTears were streaming down Nova's face as she looked at Percy's now golden face. The girl tried to find ways to get him out. As she looked around she saw a group of gears. Walking towards the gears she hesitated as she twisted them.
Twisting and pulling the gears, nothing happened. Nova jumped at the noise of a door opening. There standing Hephaestus. "Can I help you?" He asked. The girl only looked at him and went back to pulling the gears.
"Do you need help finding your way out?" He questioned as a ladder rose from the water. "Off you go!" He stated. "I'm not leaving without my friend." She rolled her eyes. "Yeah, that isn't really how it works" The god replied. "It's kind of a one-way thing. It can't be undone."
"I'm not leaving him so..." She scoffs. "If you aren't going to do anything please leave me alone." The god glared at the girl. "I am not someone who'll be pushed around."
"Eat or be eaten. Power and glory, nothing else matters. Ares is that way, Zeus is that way, I am not that way." The god stands up in shock. "You can think that way about me, about everyone! But please don't think about him that way." She says as she points to Percy.
His face softened at the young girl's words as his hands reached for the flute before playing a note. The gears on the chair started turning. The girl squealed as she rushed to Percy. The gold melted off his face.
After the last specks of gold were finally gone Percy stood up. Nova suddenly hugged him as hard as she could. "Percy! I was so scared you were going to like die!" He hugs the girl back and smiles. The two climb up the ladder.

After walking for a while the two finally got to the diner. Grover suddenly looked up and smiled at the two. Nova rolls her eyes at Ares. Dropping his shield on the table. "Where's our ride?" Percy asked as he smiled.
Ares lead the four to a truck. "No fucking way." Nova scoffs as Ares snaps his fingers, the back opening. In the truck were crates of animals and hay. "Get in or don't. I don't care." Ares stated. "In a few hours, this thing is gonna be at the Lotus Casino in Vegas. Hermes hangs out there. You play your cards right and his driver can get you to L.A. in minutes." He explained. "Here. Clothes, cash, drachmas to summon Hermes." Ares added before throwing the bag to Percy.
"I'd wish you luck, but what good would that do you?" Ares laughed bitterly. "We're not gonna fail," Percy stated. "Don't worry. Your dad had plenty of kids he stopped caring about once he lost interest, you'll have lots of company."
