This Story takes place after the war with Gaea, when Nico is 16. Tartarus gets bored with his domain and decides to mess stuff up in the over-world by sucking up Atlas's Essence and have the sky fall. With only the two camps and the underground places intact, Nico and Percy must figure out how to solve this problem. Meanwhile, Nico thought that he had gotten over the son of Poseidon. He had made a promise to himself to never be so stupid again to fall in love. But as Nico and Percy become closer, Nico finds that the complete opposite has happened: he's fallen deeper. And Nico finds its so deep that it may be enough, maybe even MORE than enough, to hold the weight of the sky. AUTHOR"S NOTE: PLEASE WATCH THE YOU TUBE VIDEO ITS AMAZING!

"Are you excited!" my mom asked excitedly. "Why would I be excited to go to a mental ward?" I asked. "Just trying to lighten the mood." My mom replied. "I love you... and I'll see you in a few weeks or so. You and Paul should visit often." I said as my mom pulled up to the ward that I would be staying at. "I love you too... We will..." My mom frowned and looked up but quickly put on a smile and turned back to me, "Are you sure you don't want me to come in with you?" She asked. "Yes, I'm Sure" I retorted. My mom leaned over to the passenger seat and kissed my cheek. "I'll miss you." She said. I smiled back at her. "I'll miss you too." I grabbed my bag from the backseat and opened the passenger door. "Bye, mom" "Bye, Percy." My mom called after me. DISCLAIMER: I do not own characters. They belong to Rick Riordan.
