They had no problem getting to the Louvre, Zoe spoke fluid French. The problem was find witch pice of art was the one that was stolen from Boreas.
They searched all over the Ancient Greece and Rome section...but all that was there where from the more powerful gods. they were looking at some old Denarii when a voice behind them said.
"Would you like to trade little demigods?" they both bolted and turned, there was a man dressed as a very rich and powerful businessman.
"Who are you?" asked Zoe.
The man cracked a smile, "I am-"
"Mercury..." finished Charley. "I'm Charley, son of Jupiter, remember me? you almost killed me once."
"Yes" said Mercury, "I treasure that moment, but I am not here for that." he pulled an envelope from his suit. "Aquilo sends you a message."
"Oh so now he's Aquilo?" said Zoe.
"I prefer Aquilo" said Charley taking the envelope, "his way nicer than Boreas."
"Agreed" said Mercury, "but now I must leave you, I'm sure we'll meet again demigods." and with that he banished in a cloud of smoke.
Charley hadn't realised that he had been wondering about the meet again part of the goodbye until Zoe spoke up.
"Well" she said, "open it" she pointed at the envelope, Charley opened it and read the letter.
"Hello demigods, I am sorry I wasn't very specific on what to look for, the art in the Eiffel Tower will be pretty obvious, as for the one in the Louvre, it's a very famous painting, my good friend Leonardo painted for me so I could remember the woman that I loved. sincerely, your friendly god: Aquilo." he looked up at Zoe.
"You gotta be kidding me." they said in unison. them suddenly he felt a chill go up his spine.
"Oh no..." he murmured.
"What a pleasant surprise to see you here" said a voice behind them.
Zoe looked at the man. "you're that guy from Vienna."
He felt Saturn walk towards them.
"Run" he said, he gabbed Zoe's arm and ran, "let's get that panting and get to the others!"
