Life after (Solangelo Story)

In which an Adoption agency is found (Prologue)

"Nico, get off the plane!" It had been four months since the fateful night of kids, and they were finally going to meet their daughter. And Nico didn't want to get off the plane. In the past four months, paperwork had been done, years had been shed (mostly by Jason), people had been hit and yelled at and hugged with the intensity of a thousand dying suns, and they were finally in California, where they would travel to Camp Jupiter and officially adopt their new daughter, Bianca Lin Solace.

She was an unclaimed demigod and was abandoned when she was 3 weeks old at the adoption center in New Rome, and when Nico heard her name he cried for five hours. It was too appropriate. But he still wouldn't budge off of the plane. Will yanked with appropriate force and Nico half slid onto the aisle way, making passengers behind them grumble.

"Gods dammit, Nico, you're gonna be such an INSPIRATION to our LITERALLY INFANT DAUGHTER!" Finally he dragged the shorter Solace out of his seat and pulled him into the bright lights of the airport, where Hazel and Frank Zhang were waiting.

"Will, I hate flying, remind me never to do that again." Will fake punched his arm and replied with faux sympathy,"But what about the flight home?" Nico visibly turned green and they went to greet Hazel and Frank, while Will dragged Nico into the sunlight and into the car.

   Hazel looked into the backseat and smiled at the bickering couple."I thought you would be excited, Nico!" Hazel was quite the mother to Brooke, and Nico trusted her wholeheartedly. The first time he had babysat, Brooke grew a tail. He had tried to avoid kids after that, but Hazel had insisted.

   Will punched Nico in the arm teasingly."Yeah, and I thought you loved me!" Nico made a face and punched Will back."I thought you cared about me!" Hazel looked at Frank with a and-they-say-they're-ready look. Frank grinned, but on the inside was worrying about Brooke at home with Percy.

   Jason had insisted literally everyone be there, so the Zhangs left their daughter with Percy to go pick up the Solaces from the airport, who was her official godsfather. Even though he trusted Brooke, he wasn't so sure about Percy. The two year old was smart. Percy wasn't.

   As they pulled into Camp, Nico saw that Jason had lived up to his promise. Everyone. Was . There. Nico blushed at the thought of so many people, and he wanted to pass out. Will, however, seized his hand,"Whole gangs here!" Frank snorted."Even more of the gang is gonna be here soon, just you wait." Now it was Wills turn to pale.

   "How?" He exclaimed. Hazel sighed and shook her head, eyeing him from the rear view mirror."No idea."

   When they exited the adoption agency holding Bianca, Jason had a stroke. Piper had to drag him away to calm down while he babbled incoherently, sometimes punctuated by loud shrieks and a pointer finger in their direction."I know they have a baby now Jason, jeez!" He shook his head.

   "You don't understand!" He wheezed,"It's BEAUTIFUL!" Piper looked over and mouthed, I'm sorry, before pulling him away by the hem of his shirt. Percy and Annabeth brought Brooke, who reunited with her parents, and their son Luke."Good job, kids." Percy high fived Will and smirked at Nico.

   "You know I'm glad..." Nico groaned, Oh no... "I'm so happy..." Annabeth smacked Percy on the arm but he persisted,"I'm so happy you FOUND YOUR TYPE!" Nico turtled in his jacket while Will laughed hysterically in the background. Annabeth grinned at Nico.

"She beautiful, you know." Luke reached out and touched the baby's head with two fingers and mouth rounded in an O. Nico smiled and looked at Will."Yeah, she is."
