To be honest I have no idea why I told Percy about my plan to make Olympus fall first instead of Will. Maybe it was because I trusted him more? I don't know and it probably didn't really matter. That's when Thana said suddenly,"So Nico, when were you going to tell me about Will?" My cheeks flushed. "It-it's not like that." She looked at me like I told her that hamsters enjoy playing Bach on cello's. "You know I'm Olympus fallen angel, it's not like I'm going to tell Hades. Anyways, he'd probably be okay with it." I rolled my eyes,"Oh, really."

Will walked in the door of the Hades cabin. He chuckled, "Thana, you know your not supposed to be in here." She groaned,"Look I know you guys don't count godly relationships, but I happen to count this one he's like the brother who never knew I existed. Anyways it's not like he'd be interested in a gir-" Her eyes widened in panic and then she finished dejectedly,"goddess." Will sat down next to her and said so quietly I couldn't hear. She looked at me and then at him wide eyed,"But he said!" Then she was to flustered to finish speaking.

To be honest I was a little confused what could he have said that bothered a goddess. Thana looked at me as if to ask me a question. She tried to look disinterested and failed so instead she laid back down and stared at the ceiling. She raised her eyebrows and said,"Will, I think Nico has something he wants to tell you."

Obviously my mind went somewhere else before I decided what she meant. How was I supposed to tell him that the people that I practically was destroyed for their cause because I thought it was the right thing to do, well I was the people I had been fighting now. Thana looked at me in sympathy,"Nico do you want me to tell him." I shook my head. I started,"Uh... well... sorry I didn't tell you sooner." I continued to explain that we were going to take down the Olympians with Thana and Percy.

He took it surprisingly well and asked what the plan was. I looked to Thana she said,"The huntresses of Artemis come next week to camp to deal with me we will leave before then and go to a safe place I set up I will take you two and a few others although you might ask I refuse to take the child of Zeus."

This got a confused look from me and Will
she shrugged and said,"A personal vendetta with Zeus. I am actually being merciful I came here with the intention of revenge, an eye for an eye." Then she realized what she had just revealed. Will said nothing, I decided to say something,"So my mom isn't the only reason you are so ready for the fight."

She smiled sadly,"I wish she was Nico."

Will's POV-

For the rest of the day I tried to sort things in my head. Thana had apparently had a demigod child that Zeus killed in cold blood, unfortunately for him all that did was add fuel to the fire. Thana was a little surprised to realize that I like Nico, I don't know what she thought before that but it must have been odd and Nico must have had some input in it due to her response.

That's when I realized something. She said she was taking the seven excluding Jason, but Leo's dead, how would that work? Was this a minor setback or did she know something that we didn't know. I went to find her and clarify. That's when I heard the beating of wings, not like a harpy's, which would've been normal but huge beating wings. No one seemed to notice for a while but then Festsus landed with Leo and this ethereal-looking girl. He climbed down and shouted at all the campers who had gathered around,"I'M BACK, BABY! BACK FROM THE DEAD!"

That's when I realized that after this exclamation the first thing Leo did was go talk to Thana. How did he know her? I walked over to him to greet him (and reintroduce myself). Thana looked at me, smiled and gestured for me to come to her. I had agreed to her cause because of Nico, but should I trust her? No, I shouldn't, I should trust Nico the second he thinks she is untrustworthy is the second I do to.

I walked over to her and asked how she knew Leo. She replied,"With help from Cletus I was able to wander to his dreams and guide him more accurately than Festsus was able to, after all a machine is not usually programmed to go into the impossible and back out again." Leo nodded,"A design flaw really, I don't even know why I forgot, but I guess it's okay considering Thana saved me and Calypso."

Thana snorted,"Actually your machine would've gotten you here in about three years, I- we would be well into the war by then, you and Calypso would have no hope of getting to the ground without dying." Leo then hugged her and whispered something to her and when he let go of her she nodded.

Leo sighed and spoke,"I was afraid of that." She smiled sadly and then seemed to realize that I had no idea what was happening in their odd little conversation. Thana explained,"Hephaestus is under the influence of Angelos, in other words he'll capture me if I he close enough to talk and I don't feel like threatening the cripple."

I meant to update this sooner, but with final's I didn't get around to it.
