Milo POV
Milo was having a bad day. He knew something was up when he didn't wake up to his siblings belting Sweet Caroline (BAHM BAHM BAHM) at 5am as the sun rose. Then he realised that that didn't happen because he was not at camp. Things got even worse when he realised just where he was.

One problem, though. He had no recollection of the last week or so. So you could imagine he was pretty confused and/or terrified to wake up in Tartarus. Frankly, he didn't know how he got out. He didn't even know how he survived. Tartarus didn't seem as bad as the others made it out to be, it was just hella lonely. A few monsters here or there, but they mainly walked right by him as if he wasn't there.

So he really didn't see what the fuss was about.

Well, he didn't have to stay for long. Next thing he knew, this rando bloke was gagging him and blindfolding him, causing him to pass out.

He woke up back at Camp Half-Blood, barely a scratch on his face. Milo was pretty surprised to hear the venom, the obvious hate behind Jason's voice as he heard the first words spoken to him in weeks:
"What in Zeus' name are you doing out of Tartarus, Milo?"

At first, Milo thought that Jason was talking to another Milo. "Who, me?" He asked, pointing at himself.

"Yes, you! You flipping bastard, you deserved Tartarus as much as Kronos did." Jason snapped, and Milo recoiled. He could practically feel the other guy brimming with electricity and power, and Milo really didn't want to be against him. He doubted even his siblings could heal a burn that bad.

"You- you must be mistaken, Jace. It's me, Milo. The one who helped you look for Leo?"
"That Milo is long gone." Jason responded icily. "The Milo I knew would never, NEVER have hurt my friends, or anyone at that rate. Especially not because of their sexuality."

Needless to say, Milo was confused. "I d-don't understand... I never hurt anyone because if their sexuality! I-I'm gay myself!"

Nico POV
Nico couldn't believe his ears. Milo was gay? "Jason, maybe lay off him a little bit." He came out from behind the tree.
"Nico, what do you think you're doing?" Jason hissed. Nico almost stepped back. He could smell burning, probably Jason's shirt hem. A few crackles filled the air and Jason's eyes flashed.

"Jason, you need to calm down." (You're being too loud) Nico warned. Something about Milo seemed different, almost like he really couldn't remember the last couple of days. "Milo, you really don't remember? How did you get out of Tartarus then?"

"I don't actually know. There... there was a guy. I was so hot, and it hurt, I just followed him. Next thing I know, I'm here." Was Milo's response.
Jason groaned. "Why? Why can't I go ONE year, just ONE year without something bad happening? No doubt this is what the new prophecy meant. Oh man... Percy isn't gonna be happy. This is the third great prophecy involving him." He narrowed his eyes at Milo, as if it was somehow his fault. "Nico, I'm going to go talk to Rachel. Don't go anywhere with Milo, I don't trust him. Go back to the infirmary. Milo, come with me." Jason's voice was hard, and Nico didn't dare argue.

With a curt nod, Jason gripped Milo's arm and started pulling him down the hill towards Rachel's cave, and Nico slowly began to make his way back to the infirmary. He had a lot to tell Will.
