BIANCA FELT LIGHT HEADED. The last time she shadow traveled was months ago. That explains why they didn't end up exactly where they wanted to be.

The shadows slowly disappeared showing the two demigods where they really were,

"Vegas," Bianca said. The truth was, Bianca wasn't exactly fond of Vegas considering the fact that her and her brother were trapped in a hotel here for over 70 years. Nevermind that, she needed to get Leo out of here,

"Yeah, uh I think I was pretty clear about the fact that I needed to get to Greece-" Leo started,

"I know, I know. I can't shadow travel again without the shadows consuming me... We'll just have to wait it out." Bianca said,

"How long?" he asked,

"2 maybe 4 hours," she said, "We shouldn't get near any buildings or anything though."

"Why not?" Leo questioned,

"You ask a lot of questions." she replied, Leo stayed quiet this time.

GODS LEO WAS HUNGRY. Actually, he was starving. Bianca had told him not to wander around but that just made him want to wander. Why was it always to hard listening to pretty girls? She was asleep against some rock, wait. Bianca was asleep. Leo pulled out some mortal money from his tool belt and left the little campsite.

It was around three am in Vegas, sadly for Leo most food joints were closed except this one building with green lights. Lotus Hotel and Casino, and so Leo would do what any straving person would do. He walked in and was greeted by everything he could ever dream of.

Leo's room was huge and he had anything he could dream of. There were so many games that he'd play almost all day and food he couldn't stop eating. He'd forgotten about Gaea, and his friends, even Bianca was down deep in his memory. By now, Leo spent 4 nights in the hotel but that's all he could remember. He felt like his brain was slowly turning to dust. Just then there was a knock on his door.

BIANCA LOOKED EVERYWHERE. Was he that dense to not listen to me? she thought. She'd been searching for Leo for around 2 days until it finally hit her,

"The Lotus Hotel," she said to herself quietly. She was mad, of course first Leo falls from the sky and then makes her take him to Greece, which she failed to do, and now he was stuck in the Lotus Hotel forcing Bianca to come save him. Which was making her relive her worst nightmare. She hated him to put it simply.

When she found the hotel she couldn't help but think about all the time she'd lost in there, Nico too. She cursed herself for thinking about that, right now all she had to do was find Leo and not get stuck in the hotel again.

It still looked the same, which felt like a punch to the gut for Bianca. She looked around the games he was no where to be seen so she walked up to the concierge and cleared her throat and put on her best fake accent,

"Evening, my boyfriend came by earlier and he told me to meet him here. His name is Leo and he's got this long, curly brown hair– which is a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e– and these cute pointy ears, around 5'6. Have you seen him?" Bianca asked,

"As long as you're going to stay here," the concierge said, "I believe he is in room 482."

"Oh thank you darling," and Bianca took off to find Leo's room.

She hated doing that. Being in the hotel was horrible, the smells, the people everything just reminded her about her time here years ago with Nico. She was lucky her memory was still intact, she could only hope Leo's was too. Bianca ran down the hall to room 482 and immediately knocked on the door.
