Chapter 6

As he said, Piper and Grover were waiting for him by the door. "What happened?" Grover asked nervously. "He said he would help us." Nico replied. "Ok, so now we can go back to camp, right?" Piper asked. "Yes, but the war has only just begun."

The three walked out of the castle in silence. "Wait… how are we going to get out of here?" Piper asked. Grover and Nico rolled their eyes. "What?" Piper asked. They decided that Nico would try to shadow travel them back to Long Island. They melted into the shadows, watching as the underworld faded into darkness.

…

When the light came back, they were in front of Camp Half Blood. Nico wasn't able to see it when everyone came rushing to them, because he fainted, but when he woke up, he had to go straight to the big house. He walked in on an argument. "So now we have Hades' help, so why don't we attack Uranus before he can get strong enough." Clarisse said. "No, we need to wait, to lure him in, then we attack." Connor Stoll said. "Actually I agree with Clarisse. Everyone looked at him, just noticing that he was there. "You agree with Clarisse?" Almost everyone on the room asked. "If we can get him before he rises, then he won't be powerful enough to overthrow the Gods." Nico explained. Everyone nodded their heads, finally understanding. A few minutes later, the meeting was over and everyone piled out of the big house. When he came out, Piper was waiting for him. "Hey Piper." Nico said, but Piper gave him a concerned look. "What?" Nico asked. Piper sighed like she was about to open up a touchy subject. "Why were you in such a rush to get away from Hades? I mean, he is your dad." She said. Nico shrugged. "A few months ago, me and my dad got into a fight. He had said that I was a disappointment, that he would of rathered had Bianca than me." Piper nodded her head. "That's… cruel." She said finally. Nico agreed. "But why did he tell you that?" She asked. Nico shook his head. He couldn't tell anyone just yet. Nico shrugged and turned. He walked back towards his cabin, thinking about the war that was coming. This time though, it was him that decided the fate of the world.
