I stared at the love goddess after she made her suggestion. 'What's the catch?' I write; she giggles.
"There is no catch, unless you count your boyfriend here having to catch that dove!"
"Do I have to catch a specific one?" Nico asked skeptically.
"No specifics. Just bring one back in the next..." she pauses, "three days."
Nico sighed and nodded when Aphrodite grabbed his arm and flashed him away.
"Do you think he'll be ok?" Skylin asks us.
'It is Nico. He'll be ok.' I write, hopefully I am right.

Annabeth, Percy, Skylin, and Amy were sitting on a couch taking when my Ghost King stumbled in the door and passed out. I rushed to his side and took his pulse. "APHRODITE, WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY GHOST KING? WHAT DID YOU DO?" I know they can't hear me, but I am so mad that I don't care.
His pulse is slower than normal. 'Get him onto a couch.' I order.
Percy moves Nico onto the love seat he and Annabeth had shared moments earlier, and I check his heartbeat again.
I notice stratches on his face and arms bleeding profoundly. It hurts that I can't do anything when I'm not in my physical form.
Aphrodite flashes in. "Oh my! It seems that more then one person will have to make a sacrifice."
"What!?" Annabeth and Percy ask the insane love goddess.
'Nico is dying.' I supply sadly.
"As Will said, Nico here is dying. In order for both of them to come back, we need two people to sacrifice their lives."
The two who have been quiet this entire time speak up, "We'll do it."
((☆))
I'm so sorry that chapters have been shorter and more spread out, and I know that saying I've been busy with the flooding and recovery from that isn't an excuse. I'm really, really sorry.
Anyways Cakes,
CAKEY OUT!
