Nico
"Nico where is bumble"? Reyna asked me as we walked down the streets of Paris. "She ran off with Hazel, Right before we left she told me that Bumble took a liking to Frank, he was in cat form" i said while rounding a corner. "Oh,I could understand that", then I stopped, I looked up to see, a tall man, but I couldn't see his face, he had a hat and shades on, "you" I growled, "Ah Nico di Angelo, how are you, long time no see" he said like we were long lost buddies. I clenched his fists, I glared at the man" what do you want" I growled in a low yet dangerous way. "Nico, who is that"? " Eros, but you know him as Cupid" We walked up to him and he spoke" I think you have an appointment with my mother" he turned and gestured as if that meant for us to follow. We walked towards the Eiffel Tower.
After climbing a long flight of stairs, we finally made it. I held Reyna's hand, then all of a sudden light wrapped around us. I squeezed my eyes shut, I let go of Reyna, and then I opened my eyes. I was in a tall hallway. It was decorated with flowers, smelled of jasmine and peppermint, there were pictures of couples everywhere. Doves flew everywhere, and the song me and my broken heart was playing, my least favorite song.( I don't like that song either, but I just threw it in)I looked up to see a woman, she had long dark hair, hazel eyes, flawless make up, and ivory skin. She seemed to get more and more beautiful. I was very familiar with this woman.
"Aphrodite" I walked up towards the goddess, she turned, her face unreadable. "Stop, where you are".
"Ah, Paris, the city of love, such a romantic place don't you think, and so much heartbreak, there was much in Both camps once. Sadly they found love, such a pity"
"What is that suppose to mean, you old witch"Reyna snarled taking a step forward, I grabbed her arm and shook my head. "What did you just call me" ! Aphrodite shouted, but I stepped into the conversation.
"It's your fault, first Percy, then Will, haven't you brought me enough pain"! "Oh, but I thought you loved Will" she smiled sweetly, "it was your daughters fault, if she hadn't startled Anna, I would still love Will." "Nico, it wasn't my fault he died".
"But someone needs to have pain so it will be you or her" she smiled wickedly" none" Reyna stepped up and threw something that looked like puke in a bucket, on Aphrodite, don't ask me where she got it, I have no idea. WHY YOU, LITTLE PIECE OF-" and then I threw a skull at her," where did you get that" Reyna looked at me, puzzled"where did you get the puke bucket." "Don't ask" I advised. "Well, I guess we're doing this the hard way, she thrust her hand out and a gold light suddenly engulfed me, I was risen into the air. Just imagine, Darth Vader using the choking force.
"No!" I heard Reyna call, I didn't know what to do, then I thought of the most stupidest thing ever. I got my sword and threw it at Aphrodite, it sank into her arm, she let out a scream of pain,she dropped me, and I fell down, I landed on my feet, thank Hades.
"How dare you, well if we going to play it that way, hmm, I guess I could drown YOUR Girlfriend!" A wall of water irrupted from nowhere. It was heading straight towards Reyna, for some reason no where else, it wasn't anywhere near me.
I trusted my instincts, I ran and pushed Reyna out of the way at the last moment. She stumbled back, I saw her horror filled eyes as a wall of black churning water engulfs me.
Reyna
"NICO" it happens so fast, he was just there. I turned towards Aphrodite, but she was no where in sight. Then the water slowed down, I saw Nico, lying on the ground soaking wet. I rushed towards him, please don't be dead,I thought. Then he coughed up water, he groggily got up."Nico! You're ok, thank the gods" I yell embracing him in a hug. He looked at me in confusion,"where am I"? I was stunned, is eyes were glassy maybe he swallowed to much water. Then he said something, I wanted him to never have ever said," who are you? Who am I?"
