This is after the blood of Olympus which I have unfortunately finished which also leads to the fact that I may or may not publish my old book 'Poseidon's daughter' again, I don't know. Well, enjoy this One shot.

Hehe... Based off my one shot 'My songs know what you did in the dark'

"Please, Leo! You are like the only person I know can pull this off."

"Will, it was great then, but I don't think I'd be able to write something as good as that again. Trust me, I've tried."

I was currently in bunker nine working on repairing a few scratches on Festus and Will was insisting that I help him.

"Please dude, Nico is good at singing but he can't write a song like yours! Plus, he refused to sing."

"Did you really think he would sing without some sort of force?" I ask him, looking him in the eyes through the protective goggles I was wearing.

He blinked behind his own pair of goggles that I made him wear after he stubbornly refused to leave. I couldn't let him get hurt, Nico could raise the dead and kill me.

"Leo, please, from one friend to another. Do this for me."

I look at him again much to Festus' dismay.

"Look, you've met my dad. I think you are the only person who has truly seen my dad in that state. You are the one who created a music box and gave it him even though it connected to you."

"How did you know that?"

"I'm a son of Apollo, one of our hidden talents is reading body language so when my dad was talking about what you did, he noticed your attachment to the box and the song."

I mull it over. Since I woke up, he pulled me to one side and has asked me to do him this favour. And he hasn't shut up about it ever since. But not once has he told me why he wants me to do it.

"Why do you want me to do this?"

"Well, every cabin apart from yours and Poseidon's is making fun of mine because apparently we are bad at singing, writing songs, everything my dad is supposed to be good at. I want to prove to them that we are useful, that we can do the same things my dad can. Then all of the bullcrap will stop."

I nod as I notice the glint of tears in his eyes. I smile.

"I'll do it."

He looks up surprised. "You will?"

"Sure, but under one condition."

"What's that?"

"I get to perform."

His smile widens. "You got it."

After that, me, Will and the rest of the Apollo cabin hide in bunker nine not even for lunch because me being me, I have a stash of food hidden in my bunker which the whole camp and the Gods had given me as a thank you for defeating Gaea.

I locked the doors as soon as the last person was inside and I made Will do a role call so nobody that wasn't an Apollo kid knew what was going on and that we had every single Apollo kid so they knew what was going on. We kicked three kids out and went on a search for two.

When they were all situated on many comfortable multi seated bean bags in rows just like at school, me and Will stood up front and we briefed them on what was going to happen.

"For the past month, all the cabins apart from Hephaestus and Poseidon has been taunting us, invoking us, about our ability of an Apollo child. But today, we are changing that. Leo here," he says, gesturing my way. I raise a hand in a wave and a chorus of 'hey' went around the room.
