“But he’s my brother!”
“I know he is but you know its trap.” Percy said.
“I. Don’t. Care. WE are going to get him out of the jar. No matter what you say.”
Percy was really ganging on her and she didn’t know
why. Yes it was a trap and the giants are
going to kill us and whatever but she had heard about Percy. Everyone said that he had overcome lots of
godly challenges. She’d also see him
take down one giant. Taking on two
giants couldn’t be that hard right? With
all the help they had, she was sure they could at least get Nico out of the
jar. Maybe not completely obliterate
them into Tartarus but surely save her brother.
“How about we take a vote.” Percy said hastily. She knew that he was nervous that she was
going to have an outburst about how there would be no vote. But she didn’t say anything.
All who want to go save Nico, raise your hand.” Percy
said. Everyone’s hand except Percy’s
was in the air. Looks like mission save
Nico was a go.
“How did I get myself into this mess?”, Nico mumbled. He was the son of Hades for Zeus’s sake. At least he had his moms seeds. Nico had seeds from his mother Persephone
that if you ate one seed, it would keep you full for the whole day. He only had eight though. And that meant he had three more days with
his moms seeds and then he was doomed.
No food. And then he was
dead. Nico had no hopes. He was by himself when he was kidnapped. He didn’t know where he was. The jar was somehow demigod proof. There was no way he could break the jar. Even his sword didn’t work. No way of contacting anyone. Nico didn’t want to die of starvation. But he had no choice. The way you die is the
way you die. And he was also going to
die alone.
