I looked around the small apartment by the looks of it it had a kitchen, two bedrooms {one was being used as a office}, and two bathrooms, along with a small living room. "Welcome home Holly." Nico said nervously. "This seems like a nice home, much better than that terrible adoption center." I said. 

The truth was it really was better than the adoption center I hadn't just said that to make him feel better. 

We stood there awkwardly not sure what to do, so I broke the silence. "Please explain what the freak is going on." I said breaking the silence. They shared a glance and Will said "Do you still have the camp introduction DVD?" "Of course I still have that shi-" He was cut off by Will elbowing him and saying "There are little ears here." before he could finish cursing. 

Nico walked off to get the DVD. When he came back he put it in the DVD slot of the TV and turned it on. "Watch this, is explains everything except shadow traveling, I can explain that to you better than Apollo can." I blinked not sure if I had heard him right. "Yes I said Apollo." He confirmed. 

I sat down on the couch and watched as a weird man danced and sang about greek mythology. I watched more and more until the terrible camp video was over. "Wow." I said. I had already had a suspicion about all this but now it was conformed. Will walked over and and said "That's my dad." "Do you remember that dream I told you about that guy was in my dream." and I said turning to Nico "I think your dad was also in my dream." 

"I think me and your other dad need to talk." said Will. "Ok" They went to their bedroom leaving me to wonder about all this. I found a blanket and went to the couch to take a nap. I again woke up yet again in the throne room. This was starting to get on my nerves.

 "Now now, don't get mad at us that you end up here every time you fall asleep." Apollo said I turned towards him and said "Your Will's dad aren't you?" I asked calmly. "Yes, yes I am." I turned around to find Hades but he wasn't there. "Where's Hades." I asked concerned. "Oh you know it's almost spring so Persephone will be going to live with her mother Demeter again, so he is very agitated." Ok I thought. 

"Welp I think you should explain why I can control skeletons and the sun sometimes." He seemed to think for a moment before saying "It all happened after the war with Gaea, the other gods and I granted some heroes a wish, their names were Hazel, Hazels your aunt by the way, Frank, Leo, Piper, Jason, Annabeth, and Percy. Annabeth and Percy wanted their future family to be safe. Hazel and Frank wanted a big family. Jason and Piper wanted to be happy and not have to go on any more quests. And Leo wanted Calypso to be free from Ogygia forever. But 12 years after the war we realized that Will and Nico had done a lot in the war and deserved to be rewarded too. They wanted a child, so Hades and I used our powers to create a child that had the powers of Hades and Apollo, that child was you Holly."

 I blinked and everything came together. Apollo spoke again but in Will's voice "Wake up Holly, wake up it's time for dinner." I woke up and grabbed Will's arm saying "I know why I have the powers of Hades and Apollo now." Will stood for a second before glancing over his shoulder and saying "Nico she knows now." 

Nico walked over and sat on the couch saying "Who told you Holly?" I thought for a moment carefully thinking about how to tell him about my dream. "Ok..." I said and begane my dream. When i was done we sat in silence before Will said "Nico lets take her to camp, Chiron can explain everything to her and will probably do a better job than us." Nico nodded his head in agreement but said "Ok but she's gone through enough today, let's take her there tomorrow. Ok?" "Ok." Will agreed. I stood up and said "Now that that's settled where am I going to sleep?"
