NICO
Eventually we're on the surface again. Bright light and green grass and all of that. I feel like I'm dreaming. But a good dream. What I imagine a good dream would be like.
'I don't understand.' I say to myself, turning back to where the passage is already closing in on itself. I turn to Will and see him bent over, coughing. I had forgotten what a toll the underworld could take on people.
'Hey, Hey, breathe.' I say, kneeling down in front of him and trying to help ease him back.
'I'm okay.' He says in a hoarse voice, 'I'm fine.'
I help sit him down on a rock a little while away, he focuses on breathing for a bit. I still don't understand what happened.
'He just...' I trail off. I'm standing up now, still on guard. I half expect something to come out and attack us at any point.
'I don't know.' Will says.
'Hold on...' I say, 'I...'
I hold out my hands. I feel something old. Something familiar. I tense up my palms and focus. The ground cracks open and falls in on itself. Slowly a collection of skeletons start to emerge. Instantly I let it drop. They return to the ground. I'm frozen in shock. I don't know what to make of it. My powers are back.
'How did you...?' Will say, standing up and staring at the newly formed crack in the ground.
'I don't know.' I say, unable to tear my eyes away, 'I don't get it. He just let us go. My powers are back. I don't understand.'
'I know.' He says, 'I don't know.'
In that moment, I realise that we're safe. That were okay. That he's alive again. I kiss him, as if it's the first and last time. I can't understand how much I've missed him.
'I was so scared it was real this time.' I say, 'I thought-'
'I know.' He says, holding me tightly, 'I know.'
