The Son of Death in Gotham(A Nico Di Angelo Fan Fic)

38) Border

Will's Pov

Will stared at his father in shock for a moment. Then his brain caught up to the situation. He thought about it but he didn't bother kneeling, he had to get to camp now.

"Father, would it be possible for you to give me and Nico's family a ride to camp? It's urgent, you would be a great help."

Yes, appeal to his ego. Will had heard that his fathers ego was bigger than most gods. He was a star.

Apollo gave him a curious look, then smiled.

"I would love to son, except I can't. Sorry."

"W-why?"

"Long island is east of Gotham, my chariot can only go west. It would take around twenty four hours to circle the entire globe."

"Then can you help us find another form of transportation? It's extremely important."

Apollo scratched his chin then glanced behind Will at the Waynes, who'd been standing behind him confused just staring at the god.

"The majority of forms of transportation that I could give you wouldn't work with the mortals. I could possibly call a favor from my uncle to bring up that Julius Albert, but Hades doesn't really love me."

"Please ask father, it's for Nico. Hades cares about Nico right?"

Apollo muttered to himself, something about how great he was or whatever, then he beamed at Will. Literally beamed, he somehow got even brighter than before.

"Yeah I can do that. I'm talking to him right now. I'll leave now though, there's this hot-"

Will interrupted him, "I don't need to know. Thanks for the help."

Apollo smiled at him, then got back into his car and saluted, before the car started to glow again.

Will just remembered to tell the Waynes to cover their eyes before his father disappeared in a flash of light.

"That was disturbing," Damian muttered, "That's you father?"

Will just nodded, he truthfully didn't know what to think of Apollo. For now he seemed like a nice guy though.

"I'll be off then." Bruce nodded at Will grimley, "Please find my son. I'm going to go and try and get some more allies to help us with that."

The Wayne boys grimaced, which made Will think that they knew who these other "allies" were. But that wasn't important right now. In front of them the ground was starting to churn. Then a limousine rose out of the ground like it was reverse sinking. Julius Albert got out of the driver's seat and opened the back door for them.

"Let's go guys." Will walked around the car and got into the driver's seat while the four brothers jumped into the back.

"So where are we going exactly?" Dick asked.

"We're going to Camp-Half Blood, on Long Island."

*** *** ***

Yeah it didn't work out as well as Will had planned. The drive went pretty well, just up until they got to the border.

The first half of the car passed through just fine, gliding through like nothing happened. Apparently Julius was allowed into camp. Then the Waynes tried to pass through.

The car screeched to a halt. Will looked back and saw all the Waynes in the very back, looking like they were pressed against an invisible wall.

"Julius backup for a second please."

The car reversed and the Waynes were freed. Will got out of the car and helped them out, then dismissed the skeleton chauffeur, who sank right back into the ground.

"What just happened?" Jason questioned, looked concerned as he stared at the border, "Why couldn't we get in? And why are we trying to go to a strawberry farm?"

Will glanced at the camp, he'd forgotten that the Mist was still clouding their eyes.

"It's the camp border. You can't see it right now because of the Mist, but it's right there. One second, I'll be right back. Try not to die."

He didn't truthfully know how to bring them into camp, he'd never had to do it before, so he had to go and get someone who could.

He ran down the hill into camp and saw something that surprised him. There were silver tents set up around the Artemis cabin. The hunters of Artemis were there.

He ignored them for the time being though, he had something to do. He ran up to the big house and peeked inside.

Annabeth, Percy, Jason, and Reyna were there for some reason. It looked like they were arguing with Chiron.

"Um guys?" He interrupted Annabeth's rant, "Sorry to interrupt, but the Waynes are waiting right outside the border and I don't know how to let them in."

Chiron sighed, "Annabeth, can you please go welcome them?"

"You just want me to go because I was making a point." Annabeth argued.

"Please Annabeth?"

"Whatever." She grabbed Percy's hand and Will led them over to the Waynes, who looked grumpy. He did his best to avoid looking at the couple, it made him miss Nico even more.

They walked out of the border and the Waynes jumped.

"You just disappeared, that was crazy." Jason said.

"I had to grab Annabeth, she'd gonna let you guys in."

Annabeth turned to them, "Full names please, first and last?"

"Richard Grayson-Wayne."

"Jason Todd-Wayne."

"Timothy Drake-Wayne."

"Damian Wayne."

Annabeth nodded and turned to the tree, Will had no idea how she could just remember all that but he wasn't about to complain.

"By the will of the gods I grant entrance to Richard Grayson-Wayne, Jason Todd-Wayne, Timothy Drake-Wayne, and Damian Wayne."

The border shimmered and Will heard thunder. Then Annabeth turned back to them.

"You should be able to get in now."

The Waynes nodded and Dick cautiously stepped forward. The border warped slightly as he stepped through it. Will followed him and turned to see his reaction.

But for some reason Dick just looked confused. The older boy turned to Will.

"Where's the camp?"
