I was forced away by the shaking Argo 3. What is going on? I did a quick change, when I was done, Nico barged through the door. "Monsters on deck." He said before running up to the deck. I grabbed my weaopns and followed after him. As I hit the sunlight, I saw about 7 monsters on deck. Everyone was fighting. Piper used her charmspeak on the monsters to fight each other, but it would only last about 3 minutes. "Jason! Use your lightning!" I shouted. He struck the one that was attacking Annabeth. Percy was pretty handy with his sword. I used Trinity, my father's sword. I started attacking the closest monster near me. I hit it in it's shoulder, turning the monster to dust. I then ran to the monster that was attacking Hazel. Hazel was minipulating the mist t show what the monster wanted to see. I cut off its arm, turning that monster to dust. Another monster quickly came at me and Hazel. This one was bigger than the last one. Its tail flung me back. I hit the metal wall really hard. "Ophelia." A voice said in my head. A ringing sound started to go off in my head. "Ophelia." The voice said again. My head started to throb. Moving my hands to the side of my head. "Ophelia. Let me in. Let me help." The voice said again. "Okay." I said under my breath. The ringing stopped and the throbbing stopped. My skin radiated a soft blue color. "Ophelia?" Nico said from across the deck.
I hovered about a foot in the air. I felt something taking over me. "Let the light prevail!" I shouted in a different voice. Nico was taken aback as if he knew the voice. My body radiated beams of light. One by one, the monsters started to turn to dust. I felt dizzy with each beam that shot. As the final monster disappeared, my skin slowly stopped glowing. "Uh." I let out. I feel to the floor. "Ophelia!" Nico yelled. I heard him run towards me and lift me into his arms. He brushed the hair away from my face. "How did you do that?" Percy asked as he ran towards us. "I let her take control." I said. My energy was drained. "Whatever that was, that was awesome!" Leo said as he came up to me. I gave him a weak laugh. Annabeth and Nico exchanged glances. "There is only one person who could do that." Nico said. "Who?" I asked. "My dead sister, Bianca." He said. I turned my towards him and looked into his eyes. "I-I didn't know." I said weakly. "It's okay." He said as he helped my up. He had to support me so I didn't fall. Piper got out some ambrosia and fed it to me. I started to regain my energy. Dark clouds started to form above us. "Rain storm?" Frank asked. "No, this isn't natural." Jason said. Black mist swirled around at the tip of the Argo 3. "Get back." Percy told us. Piper stayed behind Jason, Hazel stood behind Frank, Annabeth stood beside Percy, and Nico kept me behind him.
The mist crept it's way over to us. Engulfing us, closing all light and sight of each other from sight. When the mist moved away, we were on the hill that I had in my vision. "Hello dearies." Nyx said as the mist cleared. We stayed silent. "My, my, have all of you grown. It is truly sad that you all will die." She said. Something about her sent chills up my spine. She went silent as she observed us. Her eyes landed on me. "I see that you have a child that holds value." She said as she motioned to me. Everyone's attention came to me. My breathing became uneven. "How about we make a deal. If you give me the little princess of the dead king, I'll let you all live." She explained. My heart started to race. Will they give me over? Will they all turn on me? "Never! She doesn't belong in the underworld. She belongs here with her real family." Percy shouted. Hazel and Frank moved to me. frank stood beside Nico and Hazel held my hand. "You see, she isn't like you. She is more valuable that Cronos himself." She said. I had no idea as to what she was talking about. Percy and Annabeth then moved towards my protecting group. Jason, Piper, Grover, Leo, and Tyson soon followed as well. "She is the key to everything." She said. "I have no idea as to what you're talking about!" I shouted. She looked at me with a smile. "Of course you don't. You were too young to remember, plus your father took those memories away. Why do you think he kept you with him? Had everyone watch you at all times?" She started. The memories of growing up with my dad were flashing in front of me. "You are the most unique type of demigod. A demigod of multiple parents." She said. Annabeth turned to face me. "What is she talking about?" She asked. "I don't know." I answered. Nico took a step forward. "There is not such thing. That is only a legend." He told the Goddess. "For it is not. She is the quest that you were sent on." She replied. Everyone turned to me. "Ophelia?" Piper questioned. I started to hyperventilate. "Do not fear my daughter!" A commanding voice said from behind me. Everyone turned that way. My father, Hades stood in battle wear. "Hades?" Nyx said. "You are telling lies. She is not the child of the Gods. She is my child, her mother being mortal." He said.
Nyx started to laugh. "You are right. She may not be that child, but she is the key." She said. My father's face had gone pale. "Ophelia. If you come with me, I'll protect your friends. Please, if you come home, you will be safe." My father said. I looked between my friends, brother, sister, father, and Nyx. "Ophelia." Nico said quietly. I looked over at him with tears in my eyes. "Stay with us. If you leave, I will never see you again." He said. I ran over to him and into his arms. I cried into his neck and I felt his face in my hair. Tears fell onto my head from Nico's eyes. "Enough of this!" Nyx shouted, making me and Nico jump back. "Hades, I don't think that this is your fight." Nyx said. She then opened the ground under him, he fell all the way back to the underworld. "No!" I screamed. Jason grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. "It's time to have some fun." Nyx said. She started to cause chaos. Annabeth made the first move. She jumped at Nyx with her sword, except Nyx pulled out her sword from the night sky. She blocked a lot of Annabeth's moves. Percy and Nico then charged. Piper tried to use her charmspeak, but it wasn't working. Hazel was controlling the mist, but Nyx was fighting it. Nyx was also controlling the mist. When Hazel couldn't control it anymore, she summoned a gold sword from the ground.
I knew how this was going to end and I plan on ending it, how I want to end it. I summoned every single on of my powers. "I divide my powers among you children of the Gods and Goddesses!" I shouted. "Strength!" I yelled. 10 tiny yellow glowing balls flew to them. "Ophelia!" Nico shouted. "Knowledge!" I shouted. Light green beams flew to them. "Power!" I shouted. Orange beams flew towards them. I sent more powers to al of them. Even though I still had all of my powers, I gave them all of my powers As I saw in my vision, Jason coming down on Nyx with his lightning and Percy with his water abilities. Annabeth held her mothers shield and spear. She fought like a warrior. Frank was in a form of a dragon. Spitting hot fire at the Goddess. Hazel trying to used her ability to use the mist again. Everyone was fighting and they fought hard. All of a sudden, Nyx raises her hands up to the sky. She brought down her hands, the stars following. As the sharp stars were about to make contact with the demigods. I came into view, shielding everyone from them. Nico was by my side. "Ophelia? You dare side with these putrid demigods? I have know you since you were born." She started. Everyone started to look at me. "Oh, I see. You think that they actually care about you." She boomed with a laugh. "Come with me. You can get your revenge on your father for what he has done to you. Taking away your entire life. Not knowing who your mother was. Come side with me." She said. "Never!" I yelled. Anger formed into your eyes. "But yet you care for two of these demigods. One of with is close to you." She said with an evil grin. She then looked at Nico. She whipped her hand towards him. Black mist pouring out of her fingers. "NO!" I cried. Pushing him out of the way, they black mist engulfed me instead. "I am the daughter of Hades! I am stronger than Hades undead army! I am stronger than any god, goddess, giant, or titan!" I screamed in the mist. I then raised my sword and brought it to the ground. "I choose how I die!" I yelled. The earth started to crack. Nyx started to fall into the open whole that fell into Tarturus. Everyone cheered. Although I didn't. The ground around me started to crack. when it broke, I held onto the edge, screaming my head off. "Ophelia!" Everyone yelled. Nico was the first to reach me. I fell more in, only holding onto a dead tree root. Nico reached in. "No, I won't make it." I said. "Yes you will. Grab onto my hand!" He yelled. Tears came to my eyes and trickled down my face. "I love you." I said before letting go. "No!" Nico screamed.
It felt like I was falling in slow motion. My life flashing before my eyes. I started to say the chant that I said in the forest. "I summon the, to take me. Making a swap, for a Bianca Di Angelo!" I shouted. From the side, a ghostly blue light flew up to the top. I was able to see Bianca laying in Nico's arms. "No! Ophelia!" He cried. I fell all the way back into the underworld.
