Zoe Nightshade Oneshot

Zoe Nightshade turned to the lights above her head. The sparkling spots far away in the cosmos. She opened her eyes and saw there beautiful twinkles.

"Stars. I can see the stars again my lady" but nobody was around to hear her.

They had left her for dead. Her lady had left her, when she found out about her brother. Zoe closed her eyes, and waited for death. She felt Thanatos pull her up into the sky.

"You will be better up here than in the underworld after what happened between you and Bianca. Safer." He said, before turning away and not looking back.

Zoe sat on the moon and stared out onto the world. She saw her friends, or what she used to call friends, laughing as they reunited at camp. They had already forgotten about her and Bianca. Except one queer boy. Nico Di Angelo.

He sobbed when he didn't see his sister come. He looked to the moon, and stopped. Zoe swore he looked her directly in the eyes and scowled. Then he turned and ran into the labyrinth.

Artemis had left Zoe for the dead after father threw her, because it was her fault Bianca had died. She had not taken her place in the metal robot. It was her fault. And she died anyways. Artemis tried her hardest not to blame Zoe, but couldn't bare it. Artemis had taken a special liking to Bianca.

Zoe looked down and found that a few days had past. She saw Nico summoning dead, she saw Percy and annabeth, she saw so many things from her spot on the moon. She watched reality for a while, before getting up and walking around the moon.

As she walked, she watched the world shift. Percy and Annabeth went on there quest to the labyrinth and met Nico. She watched the titan war. She watched as Percy, and Jason became Hera's toys. She watched so many things unfold as she walked around the moons surface. She watched the Argo 2's journey across the ocean as one might read a favorite book.

She even considered jumping off the moon to help them in tight situations, but then remembered them betraying her. So she just kept walking. She watched Nico and Reyna bring the statue if Athena to the Greeks to bring them together. She watched the war against Gaea, but wasn't even tempted to help. She knew they could handle it, and she only had three arrows in her quiver.

She heard Percy tell the stars hello for bob. She now had a small cat named little bob that trailed her.

She watched as Leo died, came back to life, and saved Calypso. She laughed as the camp lined up to punch him. But she kept walking.

She wanted to jump down every single time she saw Nico and tell him it was okay, and apologize to Bianca. But she didn't. Zoe just kept walking and looking. Watching. Wondering.

She saw Apollo be cast down from Olympus and go one a quest with Meg. She cried as Jason died, knowing how sad Thalia would be, then stopped, remembering how Thalia had forgotten her.

One day, Zoe stopped walking, when she saw a seventeen year old Nico crying over a body of a blond boy. She remembered his name-Will Solace-Nico's boyfriend. Zoe still felt guilt about Bianca's death, even if Nico didn't blame her anymore. She decided to use her first arrow then. She took it out and shot it with dead accuracy at Will's body. He sat up. Nico was overjoyed.

She kept walking. Not stopping until she saw Nico crying again. He was sobbing over the body if the same blond, who had been stabbed in the heart. Zoe still felt a twang of guilt. So she took the arrow, and shot it at the boy. Will sat up and Nico and he embraced. Zoe smiled and kept walking.

Zoe stoped a third time when Nico was crying over a grave. Zoe was to late this time to save him. She looked at her last arrow. She smiled to herself as if sharing a personal joke and plunged the arrow into her heart. Then she felt herself moving. She jumped of the moon.

While she flew down, she pulled the arrow from her heart and put it in the bow. She drew it fired it strait at the place she would land. She woke up on her back with Nico loving over her.

"Zoe? Your dead! But...your not anymore! How?" Nico crooked, tears streaming his eyes.

"I saved will those two times. I was too late this time, I'm sorry." Zoe whispered. Nico hugged her tightly.

"I'm sorry. It wasn't your fault Bianca died." He whimpered.

Zoe stroked his hair and told him it was okay. Then she rose and turned to Nico.

"I have another person to see. But, I am still dead, I was only awakened temporarily." Then Zoe waves, and disappeared from Nico's side.

Zoe appeared by Bianca and hugged her tightly.

"I am sorry I blamed you." Bianca whispered.

Zoe just nodded. A wet tear dripped down the two huntresses faces.

"Would you like to join me in the stars" Zoe asked, offering her a piece of the moon.

"I can't. You go back there. It's were you belong. I will stay here." Bianca spoke softly.

"I will see you on the other side." Zoe whispered.

"Tell the stars I said hello will you?" Bianca asked as Zoe faded into the stars.

"I will" A faint breeze whispered. Then a constellation formed in the sky of a huntress with a drawn bow.
