The Promise

This Won't End Well

Nico

"GET ME OUT OF HERE!" Nico screamed at his abductors.

"Shut up!" A Empousa hissed and jabbed him with her elbow. He winced in pain and started to cry. His face and sides, and well... Everything was cut, bruised and throbbing with pain. He was upside down and he could feel the blood rushing to his head.

"Please! Let me go!" He cried out. "I haven't done anything!" He could feel hot wet tears forming from his eyes. He was hot with sweat and was bleeding from his back. What had they done to him?

Percy

Percy recognized the voice. It was Nico. He wanted to call out to him. Tell him someone was going to save him. But that'd just make it more dangerous for the both of them. Percy had gone into ninja mode and crept closer to the monsters and took one out unnoticed. 'One down... Six to go...' He took the second and third out and on his fourth one they noticed him.

"Percy Jackson! How nice to see you again!" One of the Empousa said.

"Oh crap..." Percy said when he realized it was Kelly. She walked/slithered up to him and held his face and forced him up from his crouch.

"Did you miss me?"

Nico

"Percy Jackson! How nice to see you again!" Nico heard.

'Percy?!?! How in the gods names did he find me!?!?' Nico thought. He could hear them talking and Percy wincing in pain every now and then. The thick sack muffled there conversation a bit and his head was pounding too much to understand what they where saying.

Nico yelled "PERCY! PLEASE HELP ME! Please..." Nico could feel the life being drained from him on the last 'please'.

Percy

"Let him go!" Percy yelled at her and she dug her nails into his cheeks. He tired to hit her with Riptide but she blocked it and his sword flew from his hands.

"Stupid little demigod." She laughed.

"LET NICO GO YOU EVIL DEMON SPAWN!" He yelled at her and spit on her cheek. She growled and threw him onto the gravel road.

"You shouldn't have done that!" She hissed and wiped his saliva off her cheek. "Kill them both!" she ordered.
