The New Demigods

The day after training was so boring! There was absolutely nothing for me to do! The only interesting thing that happened is that Jonas came back from visiting his father Hades in the underworld, and even then he was really tired and slept for most of the day. At 3 in the afternoon, he finally got off of his butt.
"Hey Jonas! Can I ask you something?"
"Sure ..uh what is it, James?"
"I was wondering if you would take me to the underworld so that I could meet a god! Don't you think that would be educational for me?"
"Well...... I am fine with it but you would have to take it up with Annabeth first."
"Aw! She will never let me go!"
"Just tell her that is it educational! You know she's a sucker for that stuff."
So I asked my "mother" Annabeth Chase. Just like every other mother on this planet, she said no. That was until I hit her with the whole educational bit.
"I guess.... But you have to stay with Jason. You know what? I'll go too. You and Jason are a bad pair alone in the underworld. Just like Percy and Leo at the lake."
So, the three of us went to hell.


-_-



When we arrived, Annabeth got this weird expression like she was thinking about something. You could tell that she really didn't want to be there but she also didn't want to deny an educational trip, or let me go alone.
"This place gives me the creeps. I wish you could have gotten us closer."
"Hey. Shadow traveling three people isn't as easy as it seems! And besides, you are the one that didn't want to let James come here alone!"
At that, Annabeth stopped talking. She didn't talk until we got to Hade's palace. It was really quite minus the occasional scream from a tortured soul. Now that I think about it, we probably should have brought more powerful demigods. In a short time, we got to Hades himself.
"Hey dogs! You guys are looking off the hook! You catching my drift?"
"Dad! I told you not to talk like that to people! It isn't 1986!"
"I don't know about you, Jonas, but I never left the 80's. Those were the days..."
I am not so sure what to think about Hades. But if he keeps talking like this, I will be screaming like one of the tortured souls!
"To get me to talk, you have to answer the riddle! Who hates me most?"
Of course no one knew the answer to the riddle. I was the only one with an answer?
"I know this one! Zeus!"
"James! How could you say that to a god?"
"Well isn't that the answer?"
"Foolish mortal! The answer is Nico Di Angelo!"
"Oh.... Well I messed up really bad then."
Hades was not too pleased when I said Zeus, him being his brother and all. Oh well! You win some and you loose some! Persephone decided to walk in at that moment and she had a few harsh words to say about that. I have officially pissed off two gods at once. That has to be a new record right? Zeus and Hades are probably going to get into it and end up destroying the world. Oops.
