I'm in the archery range, and totally distracted. Nico is on my mind, his obsidian eyes, raven black hair, "OWWWWWWCH" I scream at the top of my lungs. I'd been too distracted, and walked into the Lind of fire. I'm losing consciousness fast. Percy hears my screams, and scoops me up, and carries me to the infirmary. This is what I've been told.

Will was shot cuz he was in some kind of trance. I walk in and there he is still unconscious,bandages on his foot his sister Taylor says he's been out since he got shot, but mumbling for me. He looks so peaceful even tho he's in the worst pain of his life. He's been kept relevantly sheltered. I know even with the food of the gods, when your skin knits back together it hurts, and burns. I sit down in the chair next to his cot, and wait. I eventually fall asleep

It's not a walk in the park getting shot. I would know. Obviously. I wake up to see Nico sleeping in the chair neck to my bed. I groan and I sneak a peek at the drawing he was making. It was me, sleeping with a goofy smile on my face. You could call it a"grimace" if you wanted to, but to be fair, it hurt. He groans and I close my eyes. He assumes I'm asleep, and puts his hands on my head. I shiver, but smile. He mumbles something to extent of "cute, smiling in his sleep. despite the pain" he the. Says out loud "Taylor, I think he's waking up" I mumble something about pain, and an I love you TayTay." She can't tell I'm faking because my heart rate is so slow. She says an "I love you too Willy" She checks my foot, and re- bandages it. I wince, and She continues. "Baby" she says "mmmmgmmh" I groan as I squeeze Nicos hand tight. "He's feeling pain, cuz he's crushing my hand." "Is he still asleep?" Comes a voice from the door. "We think so" answers Taylor. It was Percy. I could smell the sea breeze from my cot. "N-Nico..love..you" I mumble. He's mumbling in his sleep. So far he's told us both some kind of I love you" says Taylor. "I see" Percy chuckles. "His eyes seem to track movement thru his eyelids" says Percy. Nico moves to the other side of my bed, and I track his movement. "True" I fall asleep again and wake up with Nico asleep, but the drawing is more realistic than last time. I can't move, it hurts to, but I groan, and close my eyes. Nico wakes up and puts s hand on my forehead. I shiver, and mumble about cold hands and doc. stuff, he kisses my forehead and asks Lauren(my other sister) what time it is. 3:45 am was the response. I groan and feel the pain diminish as I roll. I roll too far and roll right off the cot. Nico picks me up and sets me back. I mumble about a strange sleep limbo dream I'm having. Nico is listening intently. "Pegasui chasing Percy up to McDonald's with a dunkin' donut gift basket. Hmm" he starts laughing so hard that Lauren asks what's so funny. "Your brother is mumbling about Percy being chased to a McDonald's by Pegasi with Dunkin' Donuts gift baskets." He says thru strangled breaths and fits of laughter at the thought of Percy running from pegasi. "Mggmmm" I moan and roll again. "He's gotta be waking up soon, it's been 17 hours" "where am I?" I ask as I open my eyes blearily. "He's awake. Tell the 7. They wanted to know when he woke up"
"Pupils.. dialated, pulse.. 100," says Taylor as Lauren writes it down. "Whaaa?" I'm confused. Nico laughs at this and explains everything. I sit up, and feel dizzy. So I lay back down. I must have fallen asleep again cuz I feel a surge of cold go thru my body. I then hear a thud, a groan, and people yelling Nicos name as I realize he used a new power. Giving coldness. I could give heat, and my dad's the sun god. Not surprised that he could do that.
"Will's stirring maybe he can hear everything" says a voice. "Shhh, we don't want him to wake up to his boyfriend unconscious on the cot next to him, for the gods' sake"
I feel a surge of warmth, and I trail off to sleep. When I wake up I hear Nico awake next to me. " waaaaaaake uppppp. He impatiently chants. I roll over in this sort of sleep limbo, and mumble about my dad's chariot being warm in comparison to Nico. " not gonna lie tho, that was adorable" I mumble about being too warm and I feel I hand on my stomach. I feel a cold rush smaller than last time, but enjoyable this time. It wasn't enough to knock him out either. "His eyelids are fluttering. Yay" I recognize Leo's voice. I finally open my eyes to see Nico standing to my right, and Leo to my left. "How long was I out" ""20 hours in all." "Woah" I feel no more pain, my foot is healed. There's no bandages on it only a scar. "AWESOME"
