The children of Aphrodite finally made it. Nico di Angelo looked up from his book. He threw it up into the air and it vanished. 

"Finally. You Aphrodite children take forever to get ready. With the exception of Piper."

"Whatever. We have a house near the school since camp is too far from the school."

"Got it."

"Let's go."

"The light blinds my eyes."

"Really. Weren't you the one complaining about the fact that Hades children aren't vampires."

"Maybe."

"Anyway, we'll probably be attacked by monsters due to your aura."

"We're going to Brooklyn. We're not supposed to be going there and I'm a Big Three child who is mainly not suicidal so I turned down my aura."

"Mainly?"

"Out of all the amazing things in my speech, you registered that?"

"Yeah..."

"What. I still take risks." Like going down into Tartarus. 

"I see. Ever wanted or tried to commit suicide?" 

"Skip."

Drew just threw a phone to him. 

"Here. You'll need it."

"Why? Aren't we not supposed to use them?"

"Well we're going to Brooklyn anyway. No harm."

"I guess since I still hid my aura..."

"It has mine and Lacy's phone number on it."

"You know, you're not that bad after all."

"Wow, thanks."

"What are we waiting for?"

"Our ride. Here it is."

A car stopped in front of them. It was a sleek red Tesla. Someone got out from the driver seat and hailed a taxi. Nico whistled. 

"Nice car."

"Thanks. What's your car?" She got into the driver seat.

"Which one?" He got into the passenger seat.

"How many do you have? You're not old enough to drive." 

"A lot. I have a chauffeur. Who was that guy?"

"Someone I paid to bring me my car. So what is your best car?"

"I dunno what the best car is. I have Tesla's, Lamborghini's etc."

"How?"

"Casino."

"What?"

"Doesn't matter." Truth is, Nico kept a bunch of cards from the Lotus Hotel and Casino.

"You know," Lacy started. "Drew became nicer ever since Piper became the head.

"True."

 "Hey Nico."

"Yeah."

"Won't it be kinda weird since it'll be two girls and one boy."

"What about two boys and one girl? That would be weirder. At least one of you could seem like a third wheel. Probably you since Drew most likely flirts with guys outside of camp."
