A/N: It's been a minute! Let's see if I can get a more frequent updating schedule going, huh?

Let's do this, if I take more than 2 weeks to update without announcing a good reason as to why it's late on my board, I give you full permission to spam me.

On with the show!

Nico POV:

Blinking up at the harsh florescent light streaming down on me, I try to assess my surroundings. My head is resting on something soft, and the rest of my body is on hard, pokey ground. 2/10 do not recommend.

A shape shields my face from the light, and I blink to clear my vision, revealing Will's worried face.

"Nico?"

Groaning, I turn my face towards my pillow, which is Will's legs, and mumble, "Shhhh. Solace. 'M trying 't sleep."

Will's voice takes a more serious tone as he says, "Nico. It's been 3 years."

I sit up with a bolt of energy, whipping my head around to stare at him, aghast. "What the heck?"

Will's serious facade broke, his face splitting into a smile as he laughed, shaking his head. "Just pulling ya leg, Neeks. It's been like, ten minutes." I chuckle in relief, giving him an exasperated glare before giving him a quick kiss.

Upon further inspection, I am currently siting on the hard asphalt of a Walmart parking lot. The moon shone high, and I approximate that it's about two am. Oh joy.

The sound of a rapidly approaching engine grabs my attention. I turn and look, nearly having a heart attack when I see a familiar blue campervan heading straight towards us.

Will and I attempt scramble out of the way, almost getting smooshed when the van stops mere inches from us.

I spring up and summon my sword stepping into view of of the maniac driving the vehicle.

The man who stepps out has a scarred face, fiery eyes, and a sneer that radiates arrogance and danger. His biker attire—black leather jacket, ripped jeans, and combat boots—gives him the look of a rebellious gang leader.

Ares.

"What do you want?"  The words come out of my mouth before he has even took two steps.

"Geez. Some way to greet your dear old cousin. To answer your impertinent question, all I want is for you to take your stupid car so that I can go back to Olympus." Ares huffed, meeting my glare with one of an equal intensity.

"But why, though? You don't even like us," Will questioned, causing Ares's fiery eyes to flick to him before he responds.

"I owed Ditie a favour. Apparently she 'ships you' or some crap, and wanted you to have your joyride back. Not like I care," At that, Ares turns and walks to where his motor bike had just pulled up, seemingly of its own accord.

Well, at least we have our car back? I'll need to change the plates, though. That'll be the first thing the Kidnappers check for when they find it missing.

Tony POV:

I groan as I read through the paperwork that I've been avoiding for three weeks. I really don't want to do this, but Pepper will literally murder me if I don't get it done by Friday.

A flash of movement distracts me, and a moment later Pietro is standing in front of me, a nervous look in his face.

"Hiiiiii Tones....." Pietro starts, gulping at the deadpan expression plastered across my face.

Pinching the bridge of my nose I give him a weathered look. "What happened, Pietro?"

"Well, um, you see..." Pietro takes a deep breath before rushing out the rest of his sentence, "well-the-kid's-car-might-sorta-be-gone."

"WHAT?!?!"

(BONUS SCENE)

Nico POV:

My leg bounces as I sit on the grey sheeted queen size mattress, watching Will as he searches through his bag for a dracma to contact camp.

I step outside and make sure that the camper was obscuring me from the security camera's line of sight. "Will!" I call out, "I'll get us a driver."

"Hey Albert!" I call out, summoning Jules Albert, my undead chauffeur. He rises from the ground, however, instead of wearing his usual black suit, hat and white gloves, he's wearing what seems to be a vampire Halloween costume.

"Sorry, did I interrupt something?" I ask, confused.

Jules Albert shakes his head, and starts miming for our usual game of charades.

He holds up two fingers.

"Two words."

A nod, and then one finger.

"First word"

He points towards what he's wearing.

"Vampire?"

He shakes his head.

"Cape?"

Nope.

"Costume?"

I get a nod, and then two fingers.

"Second word."

Jules Albert starts to dance around.

"Party?"

A nod.

"Sorry for interrupting your costume party! You can go back if you want," I offer, but Jules Albert just shakes his head and points to an imaginary watch. I assume that means it was over. "Ok, well if you're sure," another nod, "can you drive me and Will to Salem, Massachusetts?"

Not only is this early, it's also long! Aren't you guys lucky!

I discovered a new method of outlining my chapters other than just going 'I want this to maybe happen' and then writing it, so this is my outline for this chapter:

Nico- five more minutes ( ͡≖  ͡≖)
