Nico POV
"Where did Nellie go?" I asked, noticing she had disappeared.
"She does that. She's probably sitting in the hot tub." Amy replied.
"Alright. Just making sure, because I'm kind of bad luck. Monsters would probably kidnap someone just to get to me."
"That must be hard, dealing with that every day." She stopped and looked me straight in the eyes as she spoke.
"You get used to it." I looked down. It was hard.
"That's not something you should get used to. That's something that should never happen!"
I looked at her." You're right, but I can't change it. Trust me, if I could, I would."
She hugged me. "I'm sorry, Nico."
I hugged back awkwardly. Not that many people hug me, because to them I smell like death. I didn't know death had a smell, but whatever.
"It's not like you're the one capturing people to get to me."
"I know, but.... Still. It's not right." She turned and started towards our room.
"Hey, it's okay." I put a hand on her shoulder. Okay, so I wasn't much taller, but I was taller by about a head.
"C'mon. I bet Dan is freaking out right about now."

Percy POV
I had recently stopped having flashbacks, for the most part, but Annabeth still had them. Often. I just hugged her and restrained her as she sobbed into my shirt.
"Percy! Where are you?!" She screamed, burying her face in my jacket.
"I'm right here. It's okay."
She-snored? She fell asleep again. I had forgotten she did that after flashbacks. It was usually only for about 5 minutes.
I pulled out my phone with one hand and turned it on. Typing in my pass code (CHB+CJ) I opened Instagram.
I stifled a laugh as I saw a picture of a "That's not what I meant" thing.
The top picture was of a girl's hip with piercings, and it said,"Wanting your hips pierced." Under that sentence, it said Just girly things.
The bottom picture was of a cartoon where a guy (or girl? You can never tell in Anime shows) on their hands and knees with a spear through their hip.
I showed Dan and Jason, and they chuckled quietly.
"Piper! C'mere! This is awesome!" Jason said, motioning to her.
"What the- oh my. That escalated quickly." She giggled.
I clicked on Leo's profile. His username was @TeamLeoFTW
This was his description of himself.
Hey y'all! Team Leo FTW! Hey, Follow me!

Jason frowned.
"Two questions. One, what does he mean his girlfriend is better? Two, since when does he have a girlfriend?"
Someone knocked on the door, waking Annabeth up.
"What? I-huh?" She looked so confused at us laughing our butts off at Leo's description.
I showed her my phone. She read it and burst out laughing.
The knocking on the door got louder.
"Ugh, I got it." Dan got up and walked toward the door. I was hoping it would be Amy and Nico, and they were knocking because they forgot the room key or something. Nope.
"Hey guys! Wassup?" I heard a familiar voice shout when Dan opened the door. Okay then. He's here.
