Nico and Bianca: An Alternate Ending

The Jar

After arriving in Rome, I tried to find the doors. But I only found the monsters. I tried my best to fight them, but they captured me. I was thrown into a bronze jar. Nobody would save me. Nobody would care about a daughter of Hades. The jar was terrible. Not because I was about to die. Not because I was captured. Not because I had nobody to talk to. Because of all of my thoughts. All I could think about was Nico. His happiness no matter what happened. The look on his face when I told him I would play Mythomagic with him. The worry in his face when I was almost killed by Kronos' army. The weakness in his voice when he was talking to me in the infirmary. These were the same memories that flashed through my mind when the doctor told me he was dead...I couldn't take these memories. But I wouldn't have to wait much longer. I only had 4 days. After a while, I heard something. "Bianca? Bianca! Can you hear us?" I quickly opened my eyes. I stood up. "Hazel? Percy? Annabeth? Frank?" "Yeah, it's us." Percy said. They ran up to my jar followed by 3 other demigods. "This is Jason, Piper, and Leo." Annabeth said "I'm Bianca di Angelo, daughter of Hades." Percy looked at me. "You look...different." I looked down at my clothes. I was wearing black leggings, a black sweater, a gray shirt, black combat boots, and my green floppy hat was replaced by a black one. "Oh, this? It's just...clothes. I'm sad about Nico, I guess." I said. "Who's Nico?" Hazel asked. "Um, he's...he's-" I couldn't say it... "He's Bianca's dead brother," Annabeth said. "What? Why didn't you say anything?" Hazel asked. "It was too soon. I couldn't say it...I still can't."
