*I'm still alive, woo hoo. This chapter is basically just solangelo, kinda a filler I guess, but it does mention something important at the end so please don't skip. Enjoy solangelo and enjoy reading. :)

Will's Pov

Of course they got attacked almost immediately. Will hadn't been expecting it since it'd been a while since he'd seen a monster.

It was a group of three cyclops. They lumbered out of an alley and their eyes immediately locked in on Nico.

"What do we have here?" The biggest of them asked, "The little heroes of New York?"

Magnus looked confused, glancing at Annabeth, Will realized that he probably couldn't see through the Mist as a "eternal warrior of Odin." Why'd the dude been saying it so much?

In an instant Nico had his sword out, before Magnus could even say anything or the Cyclops could say another word, the first one was cut down, reduced to a pile of dust.

"What the heck?" Magnus looked confused and a little scared, "You can't just go cutting down random citizens Nico! And how'd you turn him into dust? Turn him back!"

Will shot the boy a glare, he really didn't know what was happening. Meanwhile Nico just laughed and lunged at the second Cyclops, who'd been looking at his friend's dust in shock, until stupid Magnus had talked, now he had a club out.

Nico stabbed him in the gut, twisting the sword slightly and pulling it out, causing the monster to explode in dust too. Why'd he look so hot doing that? He turned to where the second monster had been standing, but this one was apparently smarter than the others. Will didn't hear Annabeth's warning in time, suddenly he felt a large hand cover his mouth, pulling him backwards.

He'd been so caught up staring at his boyfriend that he hadn't noticed the third Cyclops sneaking up behind him, probably seeing that he was the only one without a weapon.

Nico froze for a moment, staring at the Cyclops in pure fury. Will truthfully thought he looked terrifying, but it was also kinda hot, how mad Nico got when Will was threatened, he'd have to get held hostage more often.

But before his boyfriend could save him, he suddenly felt the pressure relieve, the arm holding him went slack and he was able to lunge out of the Cyclops's grip in the direction of his boyfriend.

When he looked back he didn't see the golden dust he'd been expecting to see, guessing that Annabeth had stabbed in and saved him.

Instead he saw Magnus, standing over Cyclops's body and staring down at it in shock. He looked up at Annabeth.

"Please say that was a monster? It's not disappearing like it should. I really don't want to have just killed a mortal."

Will realized what had happened, Magnus had killed the Cyclops, but it hadn't disappeared like it should, poofing into dust. It's body was just... laying there.

All four demigods just stared at it in confusion, that was until a voice suddenly spoke.

"What are you waiting for? Dust it!"

Will jumped, staring up at Magnus, who was glaring at his sword.

The runes on the sword had been glowing, the voice had come from the sword.

"Sorry about that guys," Magnus sounded done, "This is Jack. My magical talking sword that's supposed to kill my father one day."

Will stared at him for a minute, thoroughly confused, until he heard Nico mutter behind him.
