Nico's POV

Pain. It's a word that can be broken down in many ways. I've experienced pain so many times that I don't think I can go a day without it sneaking up on me. Physical pain, mental pain.....pain.

My shoulder feels like its been stabbed multiple times, and I wouldn't be surprised if it had. But no, I would've remembered that.

And I'm not a heartless person. I'm just more closed and void of emotion. But I don't think anyone has to be considered heartless for wishing Hazel would rot in the Fields of Punishments. I don't think anyone has to be heartless to wish those other assholes would end up like her too. And in all honesty, I will take those matters into my own hand when it comes time.

I looked around to see Percy and Jason's eyes glued to me. Damn. I calmly and without expression on my face, slid the needles out of my arms and slipped on my aviator jacket.

I pushed myself onto my feet and felt like crumbling right then and there- but no, I had to get to Leo. As I started for the door Jason grabbed my wrist and pulled me back over to the bed.

"You can't leave yet,Nico. " he said.

I snatched my wrist away from him and rolled my eyes. "Yeah,I've noticed. "

"Nico, how come you haven't been telling us about this kind of stuff?" Percy asked furrowing his eyebrows. " If you don't tell us, how do you expect us to back you and Leo up?"

" We didn't need your help. " I said turning my head away from him. " We could do it ourselves. "

There's no time for them to be asking me questions. I have to find Leo and being interrogated by these people is not step one to looking for him.

"But Ni-"

That's all I heard after that. I squinted my eyes against the light outside. It was especially hot today and I wouldn't usually be seen outside. And not to mention the fact that I still have on my clothes from last night(that are torn and shredded) with a long fury jacket.

I stumbled over to the Bunker 9 receiving looks of confusion and disgust. Yeah, I'm used to it.

Piper jogged over to me with a look of sympathy. "I heard what happened. "

I kept waking without looking at her. I'm sure everyone has heard so no need to keep talking about it.

"Nico, wait. I didn't mean it like that. I'm just-Stop walking away from me please!"

"What!" I barked throwing my hands in the air and turning to glare at her.

She had a look of hurt on her face but discarded it. " Sometimes....we do things so we won't attract attention to ourselves. And-"

" I don't want a godsdamn riddle Piper. " I said out of frustration. " Unless you have anything about Leo that I can use as helpful information then don't say anything. "

Piper huffed and stomped off towards her cabin. I didn't mean to sound so mean, I'm just tired.....and hurt, and frustrated, and don't forget angry. I'm always angry, except when I'm with Leo. I'm never angry then.

I continued walking to Bunker 9 tripping over tree roots and rocks in my haste. I pounded on the door and face palmed after realizing I could shadow travel inside. But something was blocking my power. I was able to pull the shadows but I couldn't use them. I screamed in frustration and did the most stupidest thing ever-kicked a steel door in frustration.

I hopped up and down and held back a series of curses.

The door swung inward with a grim looking Leo standing inside. I put my foot down,smiled awkwardly, and hugged Leo tightly.
