United Again (REYNICO fanfiction)

The Underworld

"Father." Nico says as he approaches Hades throne. "What is it this time?"

"Son." Hades rises from the throne Persephone to his right. She's here even though it's spring. "You know of the new prophecy."

"Don't even mention it." Nico mutters and crosses his arms.

Persephone scoffs and makes herself a flower crown and places it on her head.
Hades rises from his throne and shakes his head.

"You don't understand the severity of this prophecy it is unlike anything we have in countered before." Hades walks down his throne and pass Nico.

"What don't I understand? That something has been going on here. Something with Elysium." Nico turns and Hades still has his back turned toward him.

"It's only occurs when you're with the daughter of Bellona." Hades scowls and turns toward Nico.

"Reyna?" Nico asks in disbelief.

"Oh yes." Persephone speaks up, "Quite the roman warrior as well as beauty."

Nico scowls softly and faces his father, "Yes and what about her?"

"When you, my son and her are together Elysium stirs." Hades pauses, "Certain Heroes stir."

Nico rolls his eyes, "Is this why called me down here? Again may I add."

"Oh not just you." Persephone smiles, "Your girlfriend as well."

"Persephone." Hades groans.

"Who?" Nico mumbles softly then his eyes widen with realization and yells, "Reyna!"

Once those word slip his mouth Hades snaps his fingers and Reyna appears but in stone form. She was reaching out her left hand extended the other flat, like she was crawling, her eyes were the most interesting. They showed her determination, her will to keep fighting. Beside the eyes, it was reliving her being stone for all those months.

"Change her back." He growls not taking his eyes away from Reyna's stone eyes.

"I will but I must speak to you." Hades snaps his fingers and Reyna slowly begins to return back to normal.
She breaks away and falls into Nico arms barely awake.

"Nico." She mummers, "I'm fine, let me walk. It makes me look weak and fragile."

Nico scoffs and carries her anyway to his room remarking sarcastically, "Yes because you're weak and fragile."

Nico kicks opens the door to his underworld bed room and lays Reyna down on his bed. Once he lies her down he looks down at his hands covered in blood.

"Reyna." He kneels at her side, "Where are you hurt?"

"Shoulders nothing major." She mumbles.

"Can you go a day without hurting yourself. You've been alive for 3 days!" Nico rants and stuffs ambrosia in her mouth.

"Shut it di Angelo." Reyna mummers softly and grabs his hand, "I do not ask to be attack relentlessly, I believe it might be a past time for the monsters."

He gives a half smile then whispers, "My Dad might want to speak to us later so rest."

"I'm not tried-" Reyna yawns and cuts herself off. "Maybe a little, losing blood takes its out of me."

"Reyna go to sleep." Nico says and she still holds his hand as her eyelids flutter shut. Nico still holds onto her hand as well and thinks about how he kissed her.

Did she even want him to kiss her? He scolds himself. He lost himself in that moment, not taking his actions into account. All he wanted to do was kiss her.
