BIANCA WAS IN ITALY. Not for any particular reason except for the fact that she wanted to know more about her and Nico's past. Nico couldn't come along because he was busy on the Argo II helping Percy, Annabeth and some other demigods Bianca didn't know.

It was a pretty hot day in Venice, but Bianca enjoyed it that way. Which was very ironic because Bianca was a daughter of Hades, but the sun made her feel alive. She couldn't remember much from when she was younger in Venice, but she knew a lot had changed. She adjusted her green cap and continued walking down the alleyway.

LEO WAS FALLING. He was sure he would die but he preferred to live. So he began doing what he did best, tinkering. He started to see where he was, he saw narrow walkways and a lot of bridges. Where was he? Leo managed to create some sort of parachute that would slow him down, but most definitely not break his fall.

Uh oh. He broke his fall on some poor girl. Great he thought. Leo was concerned although the girl seemed to be okay after being totally crushed by some runty boy.

"Uh sorry." He said awkwardly,

"Did you just fall from the sky?" the girl asked,

"B-but the mist-" he started. The girl sighed a heavy sigh,

"Demigod." she said,

"Oh you too?" he asked her and she nodded.

Leo didn't pay too much attention to her until now. How would he have put it... She was hot, and beautiful. She had dark brown hair and the coldest black eyes that managed to hook Leo in. She put out her hand,

"Bianca, Bianca di Angelo." she said,

"di Angelo... Wait, do you know Nico?" he asked her,

"Well yeah, I'm kind of his sister." Bianca said,

"Funny, you don't radiate that, 'I'm in love with death vibe'." He hoped she would smile or laugh, but her mouth stayed in a straight line.

"My brother doesn't radiate that." Bianca said before walking off. Clearly she didn't like Leo, but he continued to follow her. After all he needed to get back to the Argo II.

"So, uh where are we?" Leo asked,

"Venice." She replied simply without looking at him.

"How do I get back to the Western Coast of Greece?"

"You don't."

"What?"

"I said you don't"

"You can't even help me?" Leo asked. Bianca took this into consideration,

"I can, but that doesn't mean I want to." she replied,

"C'mon it's not that hard to lend me some tips and tricks." he said,

"Shadow travel, but you're clearly not a child of Hades so thats not an option for you." She said sourly,

"You're right, I'm a child of Hephaestus," Leo spoke "I can build almost anything so I'll stick to that. Any place I could get supplies?"

"Are you always this infuriating?" she asked,

"I'm Leo Valdez, it's what I do best." he said. Bianca narrowed her eyes,

"Fine, I'll take you back to this Argo thing," she said,

"It's the Argo II-" he started,

"I don't care, here" she put her hand out, "Brace yourself." she said, he took her hand and together they disappeared into the darkness.
