"NCO!" he opened his eyes, to see a latino boy above him with a worriying face. Next to him was a blond mop..Annabeth and Leo. I Realized i was on the floor. i sat up.  "what happened?" Leo asked
i explained things, My dad then how he sorta sent me into a flash back. Annabeth nodded. "Did You find anything on Dis?" annabeth asked. i got to my feet. "you guys first." Leo spoke for the first time in minutes.
"yeah its in a old run down school, used to be Venice Rivers." I internaly paled. that was not what Nico wanted to hear.
"I found out Dis is a Greek and Roman god." They looked at each other. "yeah we know but we cant find of what.."
i sighed.
they looked at me. "it was Hades and Pluto's origonal name."
Leo frowned
Annabeth Smiled " so Thats why you dad was here."
leo opened his mouth. "Why a flash back though?"
"It was not important......just a normal day at a casino."
Annabeth shrugged by leo held his gaze a bit longer. he liked Leo's eyes, thier nice.
"so what are we wating for...lets go to Venizia!" Nico barely got the words out.
We climed back onto festus, who was not happy to be going into water city. The side walks had railings and were fairly thick. The three of us jumped off,  and leo told festus to fly off, we didnt get any looks. I lead them a couple blocks away, nobody was there, but there was the familar sight of Venice Rivers
the trio frowned when, they saw a ghost. One nico Knew well. Marco- the guy who bullied him.
The ghost walked up to them "Oh Look Nico is Back."
Nico flushed
The Two others looked at him.
"this was my old school.."
The others  nodded
"Yeah Nico Di Stupito is back. Have you learned how to read yet?" Marco laughed
Nico rolled his eyes and held back his friends.
Marco muttered his favorite insult at him- and walked away. Just as Two people he was happier to see walked up.
'Nico...?' The two kids hugged him.
"We are Toby and Selena!" The kid introduced themselves.
Nico grinned.
"I know that grin.." Toby Groaned
"Soby!" Nico smiled
Annabeth and Leo looked confused.
"I shipped them- and still do. Its thier ship name." Nico explained
Annabeth nodded
Leo asked "who do you ship with me?"
Me. Nico awnsered internally
"Its a Secret."
Toby and Selena looked at eachother.
Nico glared and they shut up.
Annabteh raised an eye brow catching all of this and interpeting this.
"So Nico..Do they know..?"  Toby smiled
"Yes. About me being Gay- that is." Nco smiled
they nodded.
"have you seen any strange  markings?" annabeth asked
they giggled. "You mean Dis's code?
we all nodded.
"yeah Its by Magic."
Nico chocked
'Magic..?" Leo laughed
"that was my stray, i adoped it." nico snapped his fingers
leo turned his head as he blushed
"Ohhh lui arrossisce!" Selena giggled
nico blushed.
"What did she say?' Anabeth smirked
"Something." nico managed
but leo was filling his thoughts.
nico walked into the place following his friends form the 40's but claire floated up to him.
"Cazzo." Nico muttured
Leo and Annabeth looked confused
but the ghosts ooohed and Claire looked offened
"What Babe, Your not happy to see me?"  She giggled
leo frowned
"Ew, we never dated one, two I DONT LIKE YOU, 3 Im into guys."
"But our kiss?'
"You kissed me, i did not kiss back, so stop saying we dated. WE WERE 8!!" Nico yelled.
  Nico just pushed past her, and his friends lead them to, his gym locker.
  Nico scrunched up his nose.
  "seriously dad.."  Nico muttured.
  Nico read the writing, part greeek, part latin, part italian, part korean, part Clingon, Part Mores code. All things he knew.
  it read,
  Nico if your reading this, Its your mothers house.  If your a normal person, its a save haven for my children, the Half Bloods.
Nico sighed. "Lets go home."
Annabeth frowned and leo asked "why?"
"No, MY home. My mothers house."
they solemly agreed.
Nico on the way out tripped on somthing- "Che CAZZO!' he yelled. he triped on Magic.
'mrow." the black cat meowed.
"aw he is so cute!" annabeth cooed
"Can i keep you?...again?" nico picked up the cat
"Mrow."
"Ill take that as a yes." nico put the cat in his pocket
"Nico?" Leo asked
"Yeah?"
"Where did your mum live?"
nico stopped dead in his tracks "I forgot to tell you guys didnt i?"
They nodded
"124 cerria circle." Nico recalled
