I don't know how I lived with myself. After Karter went into the woods I felt myself calm down. Knowing that a 6 year-old girl was about to be brutally murder by her father. I laughed at myself. Was I going insane? I know that 6 year-old girl didn't deserve to die, but it had happened at some point. I shake my head. I kinda wish this place was a mental hospital. I need to practice, I decided considering that I'm going to be sent on a quest with no experience whatsoever. I make my way to the sword arena. My hand reaches over to my sword. I wonder what else I can do with it other than to use it as a regular sword. So as soon as I get to the sword arena I decide to stab it into the ground.

Nothing happened.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h2NBifXM0
Okay………
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxBZZ8YLCi
"Evelyn" I hear a voice behind me whisper.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRO2a2nPK6
"AAH" I scream. It startled me. Immediately after that I felt a big whoosh from my back. It felt like something had grown in my back.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFS94qmZF4l
"Huh!" Said the voice from before. I turned back to see who it was. It was none other than Nico Di Anglo himself. He was still trying to look at my back.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwYaQhLuDX
"Wh-what happened" I stumbled back.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5pfpFY6FO
"You grew wings,"He said deadpan. I reach back to feel feathers arches on my back. I puck one off to see that it was black. I didn't even notice Nico until he spoke. That scared me a little. That might have been the reason the wings grew all of a sudden. I got scared.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46fr0Pw8pm
''Anyways" Nico continued, "I need to talk with you…privately" He eyed the corner on the left. I followed his gaze to see Karter. Which he immediately pulled back. He knows that I know what happened to Angie. I guess Nico and read minds or something cause the next thing I know I get pulled into a shadow, clinging on to Nico cause my face feels like it's about to fall off.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLGSZLreD7
"We're here"He said bluntly. I unhand myself from Nico.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vvpV9UHKW
"Sorry" I mumble. I looked around to see a forest surrounding us and a cabin….?
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKJDRoDTHh
"As I was saying," Nico cleared his throat, "You have no idea what your powers are and even how to use them, right?"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1j45Q1qpw
"Yep, I just found out about the wing thing" I pointed out.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcj9cXVR5I
"Can you see anyone right now?" Nico asked.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTqvPWZeeA
I shrugged as I try to take a closer look, "I mean, I see some children running around the cabin thing"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJkWI1hIW7
"It's not a cabin thing. It's bunker nine." Nico corrected me,"It was used by the Hephaestus kids a long time ago. So long ago that apparently Chiron forgot about it, or wanted it to be kept a secret."
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgnK2ylQHp
"That's weird" My eyebrows furrowed, "What about the children I'm seeing?"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88Siedi44V
"I don't know," Nico said blankly, "It might be because you're the daughter of Thanatos, and you can see where the dead are and have been. You know cause Thanatos is the official God of Death"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yJuvebNra
I didn't answer Nico. I simply nodded my head.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbcr9rj55C
"Do you see anyone else?" His head prop up.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliSGNRViRV
"I've been see someone named Angie"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0VSYAL3Bl
"Have you been around someone named Karter lately?"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uNex6q22U
"No…."
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNJBUio8Q9
"I was only going to tell Chiron about this, but I found Karter's wife and daughter hanged. Their bodies were severely beaten too. There were also some really old bones around the place they were hanging "
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLlt85tsP3
I stared at him with confusion and guilt.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2woTmYZrGz
"His Wife name is Angelica Thompson. Whom he nick named Angie" Nico took a step forward to me, "The bones also belong to another woman named Angelica Thompson"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRfBSPMT0J
"That's horrible…." I feel a bigger wave of guilt pass over me. I could of stop them.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSZ5wp7PFf
"Oh" Nico exclaimed disappearing into the shadows for a momment, "Here's your farewell gift"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxI0dTssHuR
He returned with a box the size of a public trash can (Don't ask me where I got that).
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUniu7WFkd4
"What is it?" I asked.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLePcy3vIpL
"It's a dragon egg," Nico explains, "You're father asked me to give it to you"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LSIblekdH
"My father?" I asked confused.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyGMoNq0Mc
"Yeah, your father. The egg is apparently a descendant of Kholkikos" Nico said, sounding surprised.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ4cVzI1v8
"Um, who's that?" I tilted my head.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8wnXtw7Jb
"Oh, Kholkikos is the unsleeping dragon that used to guard the golden fleece. He got slain by Jason" Nico mumble that last part, "Anyways it time to go back"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn9aF5PblQ
With that we disappeared into the shadows once again. This time I didn't have a problem with Shadow traveling. I have a feeling that's what it's called.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w5TdHC6iI
We popped out of a tree that was right by the Camp's borders.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeqi8ERlh4
"Evelyn, one more thing. You should learn to control your emotions"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvtK7sULSD
"Um, okay, why did you say that?" Not going to lie. I was a bit curious.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs5CRXm5qt
"Cause if you let your emotions take over you. You might as well kill everything else. I saw what you did to Meg. Luckily you only summon that ghost… Angie to help you. Just keep in mind that you're one of the most powerful demigods that had minor gods father or birth them"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xaEo2CnkB
"Right…."It's kinda hard believing all of this. I think I would have used these powers against Mason in High-school. I felt a sudden shrunk on my back. I guess my wings had disappeared.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBeqrXloR7
"You can summon your dragon too" Open the box and gave the egg to me, "You just have to rise it till it gets old enough"
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzebgvJgh5l
I cradle the egg in my arms.
251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hkv99ZVFO
"Thanks" I gave a warm smile as he Shadow Traveled again. I ran off to meet with Willow.
