Chapter 10
As the prophecy ended, Will immediately took you sprinting across the circle and whipping Nico into a hug. Not even waiting to see the boys reaction, Will kissed him. He wasn't up for hiding anything anymore, it wasn't like there where still people that didn't know. They had been the talk of the camp for weeks.
"Gods! Why are you such a dick, and why do I love you for it?" Nico whispered after their kiss, as he ruffled will hair out of his eyes.
"You have no idea how sorry I am-" Will began to apologies
"Yeah, actually I do! But don't you think we have bigger problems to deal with right now? I mean the-"
"Son of dark, Son of light? Yeah, I know" Will finished Nico's thought
"Will..?" Nico squirmed
"Yeah?" He answered, far to enthusiastically
"Can you put me down, people are starting to stare..." And Will chuckled as he fake dropped Nico and then caught him again, before he got too close to the ground.
"Okay, we are going to need to discuss this together," Nico said as he tugged Wills, signifying for Him to follow
"Try and work out what it means, for us and for the camps!" Will added as they made their way to Nico's cabin
"Right! Surly both camps-"
"And where do you two thing you are going?" Annabeth appeared in front of them, looking quite frightening
"Uhm, to discuss the prophecy..." Nico said, pointing to his cabin which was located just over her shoulder
"I think not! You are clearly both involved which means a quest. Big house now!" She pointed and they turned.
"We will have to alert the Romans as soon as possible-" Chiron said, after about half an hour of discussion
"I'll go. I can get hold of Hazel-" but objections piped up immediately
"No! Your too important to the prophecy! We need you here, that's is something anyone can do... Percy, go and get hold of Hazel or Reyna..." Annabeth objected immediately
"Guys, I'm worried about the plague bit! Yeah, it could be a metaphor. But it could also mean that we will literally succumb to a plague!" Will yelled from the other end of the table, having tried to get this point across during the whole meeting. They had sat him on ten other side of the table from Nico. Their eyes kept meeting and they exchanged silent vows
'It will be okay, we'll get through this together!'
'I know I just don't want you to get hurt. I spent so much time trying to heal your wounds, only to have them ripped open again!'
"Yes, of course Will! Prophecies can be challenging in this regard..." Chiron trailed off
"And what's with this deal of flowers and ancient lands? I'm going to say now, it's not a great idea going there!" Percy rocked back in his chair
"Yeah, but dude, if it's going to save both camps from almost being exterminated once again, I think it's worth it!" Will reasoned
"I guess, but how do we know she can't just fight off this 'plague'" making quotation marks with his fingers "I mean if we can stop it or fight it off, then it saves us a trip to the ancient lands, which probably means Greece or Rome."
"I believe the best thing we can do as a camp, is tell Camp Jupiter. Ready them for whatever might be coming this way then-" just as Will shot Nico an 'it will be okay' look, the younger boy collapsed from his chair. The air seemed to stop. Will was on his feet as soon as the initial shock had subsided, he ran to Nico's side, once again cursing their distance.
"Nico..." Will tapped his cheek lightly and checked his pulse which had elevated to a rapid beating. It was as if Nico had just run 5 miles, and that worried Will
"Is he stirring?" Chiron wheeled himself to where Will and Nico were in the floor.
"No, and it feels like his heart might-" Will was stopped when he heard and felt another body drop.
"ANNABETH!" Percy cried as he leaped to her side. Will was there in an instant
"Her pulse is alarming, just like Nico's! She's acquiring a fever too!" Will, thought. What on earth is this? What's happening?
That's when someone whispered gravely, silencing the entire room:
"It seems the plague is upon us"
