Haha lolz :D

Hey people!!!:D:D:D Lolz I know that sounds arrogant but I just had to say it :D
@Liz :OOOOO They should have a fluffy taco icon :D
@Twiggy haha :D
Sooo, I went back to Nico ‘cause he’s awesome like that and this chapter is very important. Not only that, but I’m wrestling with Leo’s character because he won’t. Stay. Down. His awesomeness is hard to capture :D. So I’m having trouble with that and I really need to include this chapter :D. No, I don’t have writer’s block. :D This is not, I repeat, not the best chaper, but I'm trying and it wasn't exactly easy to write but...*shrug*. :D
Enjoyyyy…before MEH loses my mind. :D
WARNING: This is a relatively short chapter. Somehow I can’t make it bigger. But I bet Twiggy will be relieved :D. And a lot of my chapters weren’t that long…I just added another PoV :D
Chapter 14, Nico
Nico had to admit, Gaea’s little conspiracy base was…extravagant. He hadn’t seen so many jewels, rare minerals, and exquisite furniture and chandeliers in all his life. He wouldn’t tell anyone for fear of being blasted to pieces, but this place was far more expensive and fancy than the Underworld, specifically the area of his father’s throne room. The dark side of Olympus.
He had only but a few moments to glimpse at all of it yesterday. Somehow, it had relieved him of his insanity for the smallest fragment of a second. Perhaps it was the fact of all the riches underneath, seeing as his father was described as a ‘rich’ god. He felt a small connection to it and that helped him some. His spirit eased and his mind didn’t feel like so much of a crazy rollercoaster as before.
He paced around his cell. His restraints had kindly been released and his bruised wrists and ankles were reduced to their normal size, all swelling vanished. He could now walk freely around, though the container he was stuck in was about four foot across, five down, with slick black walls that oozed with something, so he therefore dared not touch it. He could tell it was an oily substance, and if he touched it, it would stick and come off from the wall to his hand in sticky, drooping strings. Compared to the rest of the base, wherever it was, it was like a coal mine.
He gave up on pacing, as he had initially hoped it would soothe his ADHD. No luck. He plopped down on the ground, exasperated.
Escape had been attempted seven times. He had tallied them with his finger on the dirt, making sure it stayed there until he could get out of here.
If I get out of here, he thought darkly. He stared at the dirt ground beneath his black tennis shoes. Yeah. Unless Percy miraculously found him and came to save him, there was no way he was going to break out of this dark, underground hole. And he had a feeling Percy was mad at him already. Just like when he had first met him and asked about surfing, Annabeth, Athena, intelligence, the time he refused to go with him in the Labyrinth, the time he had brought him to his father and Percy was imprisoned for about sixteen hours…
Good times, he thought wryly. Not only that, but Annabeth would probably kill him for not telling her in the first place where Percy was. And so would Reyna and Bobby and Hazel for not telling them where Jason was… Man, he was in a heck of a knot.
His head hurt now.
The Doors of Death were closed. Alcyoneus was put down…for now. But Nico knew much more than the demigods at Camp Jupiter and Camp Half-Blood had. He had seen this war coming, and he knew what might happen.
He had been warned.
All demigods got dreams. That was a no brainer. But he got specific dreams. He got warnings that were far more dangerous than normal.
Kronos’s rising was a ploy. A beginning of a new end. The start of the second war, for both the Gigantes and the Titans. It was a setup.
A ploy.
And no one knew now except him. And what was he doing?
Sitting here. Unable to escape, to help his friends. Playing tag with insanity and frolicking in the darkness.
It sucked.
The plan was already forming. Percy and the others only delayed the problem. Kronos being put down was the tiniest setback, and barely even that.
And that’s why he was here. Because of that stupid plan.
He took a shaky breath and struggled to his feet. His toes tingled from being asleep and now waking up, protesting the whole time. With a groan, he managed to stand.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
His stomach jumped and so did the rest of his body at the sudden sound. Another scream. A yell. Crying.
He swore and tried to block it out. Why did it sound so familiar, those screams and yells?
He scrambled towards the bars of his cell and tried his hardest to peek out. They were thick bars, closely pushed together. For a goddess of the earth, she didn’t have much ‘Mother Nature’ to display for her prisoners.
Another scream and sobbing. “No! Please! Leave him alone, please!”
His heart beat faster. That voice. He knew that voice and it made his chest hurt. His lips could barely form her name and he could feel tears threatening to spill over. It couldn’t be…
“Don’t hurt him! Please, I beg of you!”
“No,” whispered Nico. “No.”
Through the cracks that he could see through of the bars, a boy and a girl were pushed in, the boy shackled and struggling, yelling. A dracaena guard gripped his arms tightly, hissing with each step. The girl, tears streaming down her cheeks, stumbled after them, clawing at the guard’s scaly armor of Tartarus steel, screamed, cried, pleaded. Nico’s arms felt numb and he nearly choked.
The girl’s dark brown hair shifted, revealing the dusty, fearful face of Bianca DiAngelo.
And the blond boy she wanted to be released?
At first Nico thought it was Octavian. But the boy’s face tipped up slightly and that one glimpse made Nico fall backwards in surprise.
That was definitely not Octavian.
That was the scarred face of Luke Castellan.

Note: THIS IS A SNEAK PEEK. And probably, maybe, the shortest one I will ever write. I'll try to post the rest sometime this week!!:D:D
Chapter 15, On Olympus
High up in New York, there is a place unknown to man. It exists between the summit of the world and the pit of New York. No man knows it’s there. It exists in the third dimension, only there when we see it. It is an era man is oblivious to.
No, it’s not the Twilight Zone.
It’s called Mount Olympus.
And right now, the Heavenly Home of the Gods was in turmoil. Chaos must’ve been having breakfast up there, and he must’ve been sitting, watching. Possibly drinking coffee, as he watched the gods’ alarm increase and their accusations start to rise.
“Hera did it!”
“Zeus was supposed to stop her!”
“Wha - ? How come I didn’t know about this?!”
“My son is down there!”
“You expect them to get along?!”
“Kenneth is here?!”
“Who brought him?!”
“Oh, the terror!”
“Heida and Gwen are in danger!”
“We’re all gonna die!”
“Where’s my grape juice?!”
“Huh?”
“We can’t leave them down there with him!”
“It’s the end of the world!”
“No, duh!”
“Who’s Isaac Newton?”
“VeggieTales!”
“We need to eliminate Kenneth!”
“How?!”
“Fluffy tacos!”
“Fluffy tacos?”
“Silence!” Zeus bellowed. He was absentmindedly rubbing his temple with the tip of his fingers, as though to say, I can’t believe I actually have to work with these idiots. Well, all except Athena, that is, who was on her throne, her chin on the palm of her hand which gave her the pose of The Thinker.
The gods’ talking died down enough so Zeus could say, “Sit down.”

@Twiggy I’m always on my iPod XD
So here’s the chapter:D This will mostly be Zeus’s PoV but I might switch at random times. :)
Chapter 15, On Olympus
High up in New York, there is a place unknown to man. It exists between the summit of the world and the pit of New York. No man knows it’s there. It exists in the third dimension, only there when we see it. It is an era man is oblivious to.
No, it’s not the Twilight Zone.
It’s called Mount Olympus.
And right now, the Heavenly Home of the Gods was in turmoil. Chaos must’ve been having breakfast up there, and he must’ve been sitting, watching. Possibly drinking coffee, as he watched the gods’ alarm increase and their accusations start to rise.
“Hera did it!”
“Zeus was supposed to stop her!”
“Wha - ? How come I didn’t know about this?!”
“My son is down there!”
“You expect them to get along?!”
“Kenneth is here?!”
“Who brought him?!”
“Oh, the terror!”
“Heida and Gwen are in danger!”
“We’re all gonna die!”
“Where’s my grape juice?!”
“Huh?”
“We can’t leave them down there with him!”
“It’s the end of the world!”
“No, duh!”
“Who’s Isaac Newton?”
“VeggieTales!”
“We need to eliminate Kenneth!”
“How?!”
“Fluffy tacos!”
“Fluffy tacos?”
“Silence!” Zeus bellowed. He was absentmindedly rubbing his temple with the tip of his fingers, as though to say, I can’t believe I actually have to work with these idiots. Well, all except Athena, that is, who was on her throne, her chin on the palm of her hand which gave her the pose of The Thinker.
The gods’ talking died down enough so Zeus could say, “Sit down.”
Grumbling, the council obeyed. Fear was lurking around, looming over them like a mist. Gods and goddesses grasped their cloaks and tunics and took seats with as much grace and composure as they could. But Athena, who had been sitting until this time, rose to her feet.
Zeus was annoyed. What now? Even if this was Athena, who would have good insight and detailed strategies, he just wanted everyone to sit down and relax.
Athena’s grey eyes were bothering him. Oh yeah. She knew what he was thinking. “Lord Zeus, if I may,” she said. But he detected the message in her tone: I’ll stand and talk if I want to and I won’t sit down even if you tell me to.
So, Zeus decided, she’s asking to speak but even if I say no, she’ll speak anyways. What a kid.
The wisdom goddess’s eyes narrowed and Zeus shifted uncomfortably. He shut down his thoughts enough so he could listen.
“Ah, yes,” he said uneasily. “Please, speak.”
“Actually, it’s more of a request,” Athena said.
Zeus waited. The council sat forward in anticipation.
“I want to open Olympus,” she said.
As soon as she said that, she knew it was a dangerous move. Her words resonated around the throne room, bouncing off walls, but mostly sinking deep into Zeus’s ever so thick head. Once he got it, she would be in trouble. Sure, all the other gods had been pestering him to open Olympus, but it had been private conversations. Openly discussing could submit to fighting, debating, and siding. And she would be the cause of it.
Immortals twitched nervously (except for Apollo, who was listening to an iPod), and you could practically touch the tension in the air. Zeus was smiling, but his face was noticeably taut, as though it would break if simply and lightly poked.
“Sorry?” he said finally.
Athena hated this. Who likes arguing with the king of the gods? she thought. It was like ducking under a bulldozer and praying it wouldn’t hit you. “I said I want to open Olympus.”
“Um, actually,” Dionysus said lazily, twirling a vine over his fingers, “only Zeus can do that.”
“I did say a request, didn’t I?” Athena shot back smoothly.
He merely shrugged.
“Athena,” Zeus said, “you ask much. Opening Olympus would-”
“Would what?” she interrupted. She swept her eyes through the council. Yes, she actually wanted to make them frightened. “What would happen that hasn’t already happened?”
Zeus shot to his feet. Thunder rumbled. “You are not in the position to publicly proclaim the flaws of my plans!”
As soon as Zeus let that out of his mouth, he wished he could turn back time and erase the words from existence. Because that was exactly what his daughter was waiting for him to say. He had run through a mouse trap, maneuvered, skidded, grasped for the exit, and now he had failed. Epically, as the modern mortals say.
Athena noticed his slight horror. The other Olympians didn’t, but they weren’t Athena. “Flaws? Yes, there are flaws. For one, Gaea has more openings to attack. How can Giants be defeated? The combination of a demigod and a god, correct? Not only that, but your very son and daughter-” she stepped closer “-are fighting your war to protect you. To protect your home and they’re trying hard to keep you from being vanquished.” She didn’t know how she slipped into the mortal’s ‘modern’ language. “Furthermore, you’re a whole darn scaredy-cat and refuse to push yourself off your lazy butt to lift one finger to help your kids in a war you should be leading.” The shock on the gods’ faces was a little too surreal and imminent; but that was fine. Athena was ticked off and on a roll. Hermes was snickering. Artemis was biting her lip, her expression looking worried and frightened, but her eyes were sparkling like, You go, girl. Ares was turning red in attempt not to smirk at the all too shocked almighty Zeus. “And if you don’t do something, so help me, I will make sure you fight this war alone!”
Silence, silence for so long that Athena feared the air would crack and they’d die instantly. But nothing, it was silent. Just silent. She felt the eyes boring into her, but she felt as though she were alone, isolated in the woods. It was a dangerous move. A suicidal chess slide in a risky attempt to win, a jeopardizing hope that some kind of help would come. She was hanging on one little thread, dangling helplessly above a void so wide, no supernatural being could save her. And she could tell by the council’s faces that she was on her own.
Well, fine.
Zeus’s face was red as he cleared his throat and said, “If you can’t respect my decisions, then you’d be better off with only your’s.”
Ares enjoyed little spats, but not this one. For some reason, he appreciated Athena’s opinions more than Zeus’s. Both gods were glaring at each other like a stare down; penetrating grey eyes and angry blue ones. What could possibly be worse? He shifted uncomfortably as he pulled out a slab of tobacco and started chowing down. He nearly spit it out, but didn’t. Ugh. What mortals actually liked this stuff? But he kept chewing. Somehow, it was addicting and he nodded at the other gods who stared at him.
“Fine,” Athena decided, her voice loud and clear. Her tunic morphed into camo pants and a T-shirt. A backpack was slung of her shoulder, a water bottle at her belt. She had a ‘49er’s hat on her head, her black hair in a ponytail. On her feet were Nike tennis shoes, double-knotted and white.
As the wisdom goddess bent down to pick up a banana on the floor, Zeus, obviously flustered, sputtered, “Wh-what are you doing?”
She flipped her hair back, shoving the banana in her bag. “I’m leaving.”
“Leaving?” Hephaestus blurted out.
“You can’t!” exclaimed Artemis.
Apollo noticed the concerned faces of the gods and took his ear buds out. Shame, he thought. It was Skillet. “What’d I miss?” he asked.
“Everything!” screeched Poseidon, who had been silent up until this time.
Demeter frowned, a disapproving mother frown, and said, “Zeus, you can’t let her leave.”
“Can,” Athena said, “and will.”
“This can’t be!” insisted Artemis. “She can’t leave!”
“Watch me.”
Hera finally spoke. “Oh, let her leave.”
Athena’s eyes narrowed and she almost said, You caused this mess. but didn’t. “I’m going!”
Zeus felt a chill run down his spine. The voices…they had warned of this. But he couldn’t back down now. He was Zeus, king of the gods. Something must be done. “Fine,” he snapped. “Go.”
Athena’s eyes were hard but he saw a bit of sympathy. Maybe sadness. “I will.”
And she did. They all watched. They watched her disappear in a flash.
And Athena was gone, decided to wander in the mortal world.
