Nico hated being in public, but if it made his best friend happy, he'd do it. He was promised one trip to McDonalds after the errands were completed. Percy knew how much Nico loved a Happy Meal, which is why he'd always bring the 18 year old one anytime he left camp. Today, a small child of about six was in front of them with her mother. The little girl was holding her imaginary friend's hand demanding he'd get a Happy Meal too. The mother sighed, "Bianca.. Nico isn't real."

Percy watched Nico tense, as Bianca stomped her foot. "He is real, mommy! He was my brother before I was born!" The mother laughed fakely, gripping the child's wrist.
