Captain America

I had a bad feeling about leaving Azra alone with Thor. He hasn't been himself lately. According to the note left by Doctor Strange, he was possessed. Azra said the same thing. Too similar to be a coincidence. 

I knocked the door to the interrogation room. "Who is it?" Tony's muffled voice called.

"It's me." I replied.

"Oh, Steve. What are you doing here? You're supposed to be looking after the other girl."

"Her name is Azra." another voice called out. Hazel's voice.

"Wait." I interrupted. "Didn't you call me?"

A silence. "No. Who told you that?"

The world spun around me. I opened the door and stumbled inside. "Thor told me that you called me."

"That's were the bastard went." Tony muttered. "He was in the side room with me, but then he just got up and left."

My eyes widened. I had a bad feeling about this. 

"Steve, are you alright? You look shell shocked. You didn't even scold Tony."

I didn't even hear the last part. I bolted through the door, and sprinted to Azra's room.

I tried the door handle, but as I suspected, it was locked. I pulled out my shield from my back and threw it at the door. The door was metal, but still imploded. 

I pushed the remains of the door away. The room was empty. On the bed where Azra lay just minutes before, was an envelope. I recognised Thor's handwriting on the front. 

Give to Hazel Levesque.

I tried to pick up the envelope, but when my hand touched it, the envelope sent an icy cold, numbing sensation up my arm. I bolted back to Hazel's room.

"Hazel. You need to come with me." I commanded, my captain-voice booming through the room.

"Why?" Hazel and Tony asked simultaneously. 

"He's got her." 

Hazel's golden eyes widened. She rushed up to me, but Tony stopped her. "If Thor's got Azra, who's to say he won't take Hazel as well?"

"He's not there. He left a note, but I can't touch it. I think that only Hazel can hold it."

Tony nodded and let Hazel go. She walked out of the room, and headed towards Azra's room. 

"How do you know where it is?" I asked.

"I can sense the traces of magic used on the letter. He also wrote with molten gold, so I can sense that as well." She replied without pausing her stride.

She walked through the door with ease. The metal politely rippled out of the way.

As soon as she touched the envelope, she turned to smoke and disappeared. I gasped.

I walked over to the envelope. It was exactly the same as before, but this time the writing was in black and it said: Give to Nico Di Angelo.

Something was up, and the demigods seemed to be at the center of the whole thing.

Nico

I woke up with a gasp.

Hazel just sent me a dream message. I closed my eyes, trying to remember it all.

Hazel and I were in a dark cavern. She was clouded by a dark fog, making her voice sound muffled. But I heard her all the same. 

"Nico, you need to get help. Thor took Azra and me to the Ink. He's talking about waging war on Chaos. The monsters down here are mad that Chaos didn't help them get out of the Ink. After all, the Ink was made by Chaos. Also, be careful of Percy, Loki and Doctor Strange. They, along with Thor, have been possessed. And whatever you do, don't touch the letter"

A million questions filled my mind, but just as I was about to voice them, the dream ended, and I woke up.

Now I needed to get to the council, tell them about Hazel and Azra, and stop a war between a primordial and a bunch of unknown monsters from happening.

Wonderful.

As I turned to face the door, I came face to face with Loki. I scrambled backwards.

"Good morning Nico. Have any dreams?" He whispered, his black eyes glittering with malice.

I unsheathed my sword and eyed the open doorway apprehensively. Loki seemed to notice, because he chuckled. "Now now, Nico, you aren't that stupid, are you?"

I brought up my spare hand and whistled. Loki's eyes widened. "Oh no you-"

The rest of his sentence was cut short when a massive wall of black fur bounded onto him, knocking him flat. 

"Yes Mrs O'Leary!" I shouted.

I gave her a dog biscuit and we ran out of the door, locking it behind us.

I then shadow traveled to mount Olympus.

Step one completed.
