"okay, and why would you WILLINGLY let a soul leave your domain?" Percy questioned. "Because, you are my favorite nephew, and I feel bad for your girlfriend's untimely demise, sooooooooooo... Who would you like to bring back?" Hades asked, interest creeping on his face. "Silena, Silena Beauregard, daughter of Aphrodite." Percy said. Hades clapped thrice, and the Furies escorted Silena in, dressed in camp clothes and her hair in a braid. "Percy? What's going on? Last thing I remember is getting hit by the poison and... Oh gods, am I in Hades' palace?" She said, fear present in her voice. "Silena, stay calm, Hades is on our side, isn't he, Hades?" Percy said, giving him his Deluxe I'll-Kill-You-Later Stare (REFERENCE TO TLT!). "Where's Charlie?" She asked. "Young Mr. Beckendorf has decided to Rebirth, and Perseus wishes to take you back to the mortal world, off you go, then." Hades said, grinning. "Lead the way, Percy" Silena said, blushing when Percy took her hand to guide her out. When Percy and Silena were out of earshot, the ghost of Annabeth came into Hades' view. "Looks like he's getting along with Silena well, and if all goes according to plan, the wedding will be enough to bring you back, Miss Chase" Hades said. "Indeed, Lord Hades" Annabeth said.

-------IN---THE---MORTAL---WORLD-------

Silena's skin was pale and bleached before they had reached the mortal world, now she looked about Percy's age and full of life and love (being a daughter of Aphrodite) and hope. "Percy, where are we?" Silena asked, blinking repeatedly. "It seems, were somewhere in Central Park, somewhere... Aha, there's the building I was looking for, Muerta Corporation. Nico runs the place, along with his boyfriend Will." Percy said, grabbing Silena's wrist and running off towards Muerta Corporation. Silena suddenly stopped Percy and kissed him on the cheek. "Percy, I've had a small, incurable crush on you since I met you, and I needed that." Percy was stunned for a moment, do much do that all he could do was stand there and blink momentarily. Then he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her in for another kiss. After about ten seconds, they pulled apart and ran off to the main doors of Muerta Corporation. "Excuse me, are you looking for someone?" A receptionist asked. "Yeah, Nico di Angelo, please" Percy said. "Mr. di Angelo is a very busy man, do you have an appointment?" The receptionist asked. "No, but..." Percy wrote down his signature on a check for $450 in mortal cash. "Here you go, and the name's Percy Jackson." He said, and the receptionist called an elevator for them, which took them to Nico's office. "... I'll be right there, but I have visitors, it'll have to wait." Nico hung up the phone. "Percy, what do you need?" Nico asked. "Nico, do you know anything about the Deathly Hallows?" Percy asked. "Why, yes, I do, I just so happen to be borrowing the Cloak from my cousin Harry, why?" Nico asked, confused. "Nothing, but there's a fourth Hallow." Silena said. "I know, but the fourth Hallow was lost forever ago, no mortal has ever found it." Nico said, biting his tongue, one of the ways Percy can tell when Nico is lying. "Where is it, Nico?" Percy demanded. Nico pointed to the fourth Hallow, which was in Percy's pocket. "Riptide is the fourth Hallow." Nico said.
