Tortured in Tartarus- A Percy Jackson Fanfiction

13 Death

Nico

I collapsed to my knees. I had raised an army of dead people. Percy had too. I took a chunk of ambrosia out of a plastic bag and ate one. Then with newfound energy, I crawled over to Percy.

"You're not staying here, Perce. You'll die." I said. How was I even supposed to get him out of here? I opened the door, and wind came roaring in. I grabbed Percy's hand, and heaved his body onto my back. I stumbled a few steps, and fell onto the cold stone floor.

"Gods!" I yelled.

"Nico." Said a voice. A dead man stood behind me. No, not man.

"Bianca?" I asked. My voice filled with joy. "Bianca!"

"Our father sent me. He said we needed to help Percy." Bianca said.

"But you're a ghost." I argued.

"No, a zombie right now. I can help." Bianca said.

She put Percy on her shoulders. "You are too weak to carry him. Now come. I can carry him almost all the way- I just cannot leave the underworld."
