Hey guys! Just wanted to say, I edited the Prophecy so that it rhymes sort of and so it's a bit more inclusive, so let's see if you can spot the difference! Also, thank you for 1k reads on my first part! It means a lot!

uNICOrn OUT!

Previously:...

The heroes of past and present must go,

to find  the kidnapped in the land beyond any throne,

The children of the moon will lead the way,

with Light and Dark battling the end of Day,

The team of many shall fight the shadowed hand,

The Camp they call home shall make their final stand,

The Brain and Brawn, The Dark curse to break

The rule of the Gods decided by their fate.'

Great. Just Great.

Nico2 P.O.V:

We all were silent, until a groan came from Percy's mouth.

'You have GOT to be kidding me! Another one? Can't I just get a break?!'

We all sympathised, Percy and Annabeth had been on WAY too many quests, like the rest of us.

Chiron spared him a solemn look. 'I'm sorry, son, but it has come to pass. It shall do you good to figure out the meaning of this, and I would help, but... I have an important task to carry out. I shall see you soon.'

And with that, the old centaur exited the room, leaving a bunch of disgruntled demigods in the room.

'Ok,' Annabeth started, 'Let's figure out what this means.'

'The heroes of past and present must go,-' Reyna recited.

'Well that's obviously us!' Clarisse said, rolling her eyes.

'to find  the kidnapped in the land beyond any throne,' Annabeth continued.

'That would be my bro, Jase.' Leo said, looking sad.

'And the land would be Alaska, right? None of the gods are allowed there, if I'm right.' Hazel inputted.

'Yes, that sounds right, which means Jason is in Alaska.'

'The children of the moon will lead the way,' Thalia said, and then told us 'I only remembered that line because it mentioned the children of Artemis, which isn't possible, right?' A moment of silence followed that.

'with Light and Dark battling the end of Day,' I recited, looking grave. 'That would be me and Will.'

Mini-us looked scared, and Will tried to comfort them, while I just felt plain anger, how could the Gods let this happen to a 10 year old? Oh right, they don't care. I tried to rein in my anger, I shouldn't lose my temper, otherwise things will go wrong.

To calm myself down, I grabbed Will's hand, and held it tightly, breathing in and out slowly, decreasing the pace of my heart beating in my chest, holding one of the many things that mattered.

My boyfriend. My friend. My significant annoyance, yes, but my McDonald Happy Meal Supplier too, my Doctor, my Spare cabin owner (aka the Apollo cabin), my sunshine, my night-lamp, my knight in way too shiny armour (if I ever needed one, that is), my own Rapunzel, my Will.

By the way, if you tell him that I said all of this, I will personally come to your house and drag you down to the depths of the Underworld, where no-one will ever see you again.

The worst part is that no-one disagreed, making it set in stone that me and Will would have to battle 'The end of Day', and I have a feeling I know who it is, and I don't want to say it out loud, or it'll come true.

Great.

'The team of many shall fight the shadowed hand,' Reyna carried on, and then added 'That would be the thing that took Jason then.'

They took my cousin. How dare they. Yes, his input never really helped, and was not really needed, but he was my cousin, and my best friend. How, I don't know, but sadly, he is. And so the person who took him shall pay dearly.

'The Camp they call home shall make their final stand,' Percy said, all of us shocked that he had remembered some of the dam prophecy.

He looked at us, and looked outraged. 'What! I can remember stuff you know!'

Sure you can, Percy. Sure.

No-one wanted to talk about that line, and so we all telepathically agreed not to.

'The Brain and Brawn, The Dark curse to break' Travis said.
'Which would be-'

We all stopped, and looked at each other, and burst out laughing, Annabeth looking proud but humble, a hard look to pull off, as they are opposite emotions. It didn't help that Percy was looking at her with adoration in his eyes, something that made us laugh even more.

'But who would be the Brawn?' I inquired.

'Me, of course.'

We all turned to look at Leo, who was leaning against the wall, trying to look cool, but failing miserably.

I ignored him, and continued.

'So, I'm guessing the Dark Curse is the disease going round Camp.'

'The rule of the Gods decided by their fate.' 

'So, if we fail, the flying schists in the sky would be gone?'

Little Nico was looking up at me, shocked. Oh how cute. An innocent me, with a life purpose. Joking... maybe.

'NICO! Language!' Hazel and Bianca burst out, both looking at me sternly.

I raised an eyebrow, wow, there's two of them.

'What? It's true. See, Percy agrees with me.' I said, looking at Percy who was nodding thoughtfully.

An audible sigh came from Annabeth, and I decided to drop the subject, we might as well focus on the task.

'So,' She started, 'We all have to go to Alaska to save Jason, being led by Artemis' children, when Nico and Will shall fight 'The end of Day', whilst the rest of us will fight a shadowed being whilst Camp goes to war, and me and someone here will break the curse ravaging the Camp, which could be destroyed, and the outcome of this quest might end in the fall of the Gods.' She finished.

'Great. Just Great.' Percy said, which summed up our feelings on the topic.

Great.
