Merry Christmas fluffs! Sorry if Leo seems OOC I haven't been too involved in the PJO/HoO fandom for a while so I'm still trying to regrasp everyone's traits
Anyways, I'll ramble at the end of the chappie and let u guys read now

You know that feeling you get when you suddenly sit up and everything around you looks like it's spinning? Multiply that by 100 and you would get what Leo felt.
Once the spinning stopped and he felt certain that he could stand up without collapsing back into a pile of limbs, Leo picked himself up. Leaning against the nearest wall, he tried to survey the room he found himself in.
Except that he couldn't see anything.
Lifting up a hand to light it, he was surprised that not even a single spark ignited. "What the Hades..." he mumbled to himself.
Reaching down to his tool belt, he decided that a lighter would have to do as he ignited it. The room illuminated only slightly, but enough for Leo to get a good look at his surroundings. When he saw that there was no one in the room except him, he started to panic a bit.
"Hey, Calypso? Guys? Anyone hear me?!" He shouted in an attempt to locate his friends.
"Sorry, but your little friends aren't going to be able to hear you." His attention was drawn away from finding the others as his lighter suddenly disappeared and a voice called out to him in the darkness.
"Who's there?" The son of Hephaestus called out, and he let out a yelp when a young man–early twenties maybe?–popped out of nowhere. He had short, slightly curly, black hair and his eyes looked like they were just holes boring into his head. The unknown male was also wearing what looked like a mix of a chlamys and a Roman gladiator's armour, all black as well.
(A/N: A chlamys is an Ancient Greek robe that was rather short. See the pic for an example)
"Gods! Would you mind giving a bit of a warning next time, I mean, who are you? The long lost twin brother of Violet Parr of something?" He joked. Unfortunately, the mystery man didn't seem to have a great sense of humour.
"No. The only sister I have is Nyx and she is most certainly not my twin."
Leo stared at him for a moment. "Dude it was just a joke, and - wait, did you just say Nyx was your sister?" The man nodded. "Yes! My name is Erebus, god of darkness and one of the Protogonoi!" To emphasize his point, he made human shaped figures that, to be honest, were barely visible and had them bow down before him.
(A/N: Protogonoi means "first-born" in Greek and is used to refer to the children of Chaos)
'And here I thought Apollo had the biggest ego,' Leo though to himself as the now identified Erebus revelled in the silent applause given by the..., actually he wasn't quite sure what they were, but seeing as they looked like the blobs that attacked them earlier, Leo decided to simply dub them shadow blobs for now. (A/N: If u have a good name for them please suggest some cuz I'm really not good with these kinda things ^^;)
Noticing a sudden breeze to his left, Leo deduced that it was an exit. "So, um, I guess you wouldn't mind if I just scooted around your shadow blobs and left now..." Too bad for him, he did mind as the shadow blobs dissipated and reappeared behind him, grabbing and pinning the boy to the wall. "Hey!" The counsellor of Cabin 9 protested.
"I'm afraid I do mind. While I don't like the idea of taking orders from my nephew, my worshippers here have been looking for a new host and I think you'll do fine." The Protogonoi gave a wicked smile as Leo processed what he said. 'Host? What does he mean host?' Leo never got his answer though as the shadows engulfed him once again a she thought, 'dam, this has been happening way to much lately'.
Please read the A/N after this unless you want to think I abandoned this story after a few more chapters

Not as long as my recent chapters but I've gotten a new idea while writing this chapter so the next one will probs be up sooner, maybe late January or early February
IMPORTANT:
I'm going to be re-writing this book cuz I started this book when I was 11 maybe and looking back my writing style has changed a lot and I've also gotten new ideas I didn't have before so I'll continue this for now but I'll post an A/N once the re-write is up. I won't delete this book in case people do want to read what I've written so far or haven't seen this announcement yet but after I post the re-write I will NOT be continuing the story in this book. The rest of my updates will be in the re-write.
Anyways I hope u guys enjoyed the chapter and I know it's not long but I hope it's a good Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza(did I spell that right?)/what ever you may celebrate present. :D
Constructive criticism is appreciated!
See you later fluffs
