NICO'S P.O.V

I awoke the next morning, warmer, stronger and nightmare free, Wills arms still wrapped around me in a warm embrace.

"Morning death boy." He whispered, kissing me on the forehead carefully. I moaned, burying my head in his shoulder.
"Too early." I mumbled, my head swimming with my to do list for the day. Will laughed, getting up, and bringing me with him, sitting me on the end of the bed.
"If you can survive for one second more without doing anything, can I check some things out." I nodded, yawning. Will then continued to check my temperature, shine a light into my eyes, then kiss me again.

"Hokey dokey, what's first on today's agenda?" I stood up, sheathing all my weapons, cause hell, I had a feeling I was going to need them today.
"You sure you want to come with me?" I asked staring right at him, my voice serious. There was a goddess on the camp, a boy I presumed dead, and a girl trying to kill everything In her wake, just a usual day at camp half blood.
"And let you have all the fun, not in a million years." He said throwing an arm around my shoulder. I carefully took it off, still not too fond of touching.
"First then." My voice was distant, thinking about what I had to do, "Let's start easy, we have a presumed dead boy and an immortal goddess on our hands, I would like to question them." Will nodded.
"I'm as curious as you are."

WILL'S P.O.V

(Cause it's been a while)

I walked beside Nico as we scoured the camp for Leo and what could only be his girlfriend, come on, did you see how comfortable she looked with her arms wrapped neatly around Leo.
It was really a warm day, and after about half an hour of searching, sweated beaded our foreheads.
"Hades for real man, where are they?" I asked, wiping the back of my hand over my forehead. I turned beside me, where Nico looked just as, if not more uncomfortable than I was, he could lie all he liked, but I could tell he was still weak.
"Here's a better question, where's 3/4 of the camp." He asked a slightly worried tone in his voice, he must have been pretty shaken with the arrival of Delilah.
" 'hot stuff Leo' is in the forest with his immortal girlfriend." We heard a strong feminine voice from behind us say, and she sounded pissed.
We stopped, turning to see Clarisse, all weaponed up as usual.
"What's up Clarrisse?" I asked, as she shot daggers with her eyes.
"Leo is out there with Calypso, relaying their over-exaggerated gruelling mission, I swear, he's no demigod." I rolled my eyes, as Nico reached for his Stygian iron sword, Clarisse smirking.
"Come on, try me ghost king." She challenged, reaching for her own spear. I bet he would have if I hadn't pulled him away.
"Chicken." She called out after us.

"I swear, that bitch is going to get someday." Nico said, his teeth clenched.
"Calm it death boy, we've got more important stuff to deal with than schoolyard bullies." I said, my hands still firmly grasping his arm.
"Like the fact that she just mentioned calypso. The only immortal calypso I know is that chick who was banished to that random island, to forever fall in love with heroes and crap, they always leave though, and she is never to leave. Not to be the one to point out the obvious or anything, but, She's left."
"Wow Will, way to go, never would have thought of that on my own."
"Hey calm it Nico, your starting to sound like a normal teenager, is that sarcasm I detect." He hit my arm, walking off into the forest. I quickly followed after him, catching up in no time.

"Before we knew it, we had 7 hellhound upon us, gnashing their teeth, I swear we were nearly dead, we were going to die."
"4 hell hounds Leo, 4." One of the most beautiful women I had ever seen rolled her eyes at Leo, radiating warmth, beauty, and I swear, I was gay but hell, this women was stunning. I was taking her to be Calypso.
"Honey, don't steal my Moment." Leo replied, silencing her with a finger, causing Calypso to roll her eyes again.
"Anyway, where was I, oh yes. So there were hell hounds Surrounding us, we were wounded, tired and practically dead, and then, this amazing chick came from behind, and in a matter of seconds, they were all dead. She was like superwomen, her sword work was like almost better than Percy's."
"Hey!" I heard Percy yell from the crowd.
"I said almost fish boy!" Leo yelled back.

"Anyway, she banished half of them back to the underworld, and the rest she destroyed with skeletons. She is going to be one of the best heroes of all time, after me of course." Beside me, Nico stiffened.
"Leo, that's Delilah Anya rouge, otherwise known as the dark princess. She was raised by ghosts and spirits, she is hades angel child. She destroys, kills and maims things for fun. Just a few days ago she tried to kill the Apollo cabin with her skeletons. Trust me when I says she's bad news." Nico's voice was incredibly serious and stern, anger at his worst nightmare being called a superhero laced into his tone.

Everyone was turned toward him, eyes wide and curious.
"What are we going to do with her?" I heard someone ask.
"That's the question." Nico answered.
"She's a nightmare, but there must be a reason why she is here. We can't just banish her, it's against what we believe in. She's a demigod, we could use her."
"Can we like teach her how to be good, like values 101." That had to have been Percy.
"She killed her mother when she was 6. Survived by herself for a year, than was taught values, weaponry and shit by ghosts and spirits. The likeliness of teaching her is almost nothing. What we can do is get information out of her, and use her to fight."
"Fight what?" I heard someone ask.
"That's what I'm going to find out."
