IF YOU DIDN'T ALREADY KNOW Alcyoneus was the giant made to oppose Pluto.

"What is he doing here? I thought we defeated him in Alaska!" Frank said,

The giant laughed, "Exactly what we wanted you to think," Bianca flinched at his words, "Now I have a deal for you, I only want the children of the underworld the rest of you can stay"

"No," Leo said firmly, "You can't take them."

Alcyoneus sighed, "Demigods never learn... You don't have a choice." and with that, he raised his icy sceptre to attack them,

"Wait!" Bianca yelled, "Why do you only want children of the underworld?"

"Bianca what are you do-" Nico started,

"Telling you would ruin the surprise, wouldn't it?" Alcyoneus replied. Bianca smiled slightly as she got an idea, "What is it, demigod? You're not meant to be smiling! I'm here to capture you!"

She looked the giant straight in the eyes, then eyed her siblings— they finally understood what she was trying to do,

"Shadows," Bianca whispered quietly, she worried they didn't hear her. "It's truly been so nice to meet you Alcyoneus, but we must get going." the giant gave a puzzling look as Hazel grabbed Frank and Piper's hands and fell into the shadows. Next was Nico, he grabbed Coach Hedge and Jason and disappeared. Finally, Bianca grabbed Leo's hand and the shadows took them both.

OKAY, LEO DEFINITELY HAD A thing for Bianca. He always did but now he was sure. As soon as they appeared on the Argo II's top deck Frank and Hazel pulled the anchor up as Leo ran to the control room, Bianca followed him,

"We need to hurry," Leo said. Bianca nodded her head in agreement. As soon as they entered the room Leo grabbed the Wii controls and got the ship moving, once they were far enough from land Leo and Bianca collapsed on the floor, lying down,

"Well that was something," Leo said. Bianca chuckled a little,

"If we're being completely honest, I just wasn't in the mood to fight another monster, especially a giant."

"I don't blame you." Leo turned his head so he was looking at Bianca,

"Can you stop staring at me? It's getting creepy," she said. Leo turned red,

"I- uh I wasn't staring," he turned his head again so he was looking at the ceiling,

"Mhm," Bianca said. They lied there exhausted, Bianca from shadow travelling and Leo from controlling the ship for hours.

"Leo! Bianca!" Jason's voice called for them, "Get up here! Now!" and there was a smashing sound,

"It never ends does it?" Bianca said as she ran up, Leo trailing behind her.
