Don't Let Fred In

Part 5

～Percy's point～

We had decided to have a game night in celebration of Will getting promoted at work. It was just us guys but we were having a blast. At the moment we were all sitting down in the living room playing truth or dare.

"Percy, truth or dare" Leo asked

"Dare" I said with a look that said bring it.

"I dare you to tell Annabeth that Rachel kissed you" Leo said and I froze

"No way, it may have been years ago but she will kill me" I said as I down a shot glass. We couldn't have actually alcohol because not everyone was of age so we just get lemon juice with extra citrus acid added to it. And anytime you didn't do a dare or answer a truth you had to drink. In all honesty it had turned into a game of trying to make each other drink just to see the look on our faces as we drank.

I pucker my lips at just how sour it was then I turned to Frank

"Frank, truth or dare?" I asked

"Um truth" Frank said

"Are you sure?" I asked while smirking

".....Yes?" Frank said

"Have you ever France kissed Hazel?" I asked

And Nico shot a glare at Frank.

"I-I.......um....well you see....." Frank stumbled

"I don't think we do see. So please Please, do help us to see more clearly" Nico said still glaring at him

".....yes....I-I have" Frank said

"I'm going to have to kill you for that" Nico said

'Will truth or dare!" Frank quickly yelled

"Dare" Will said

"I dare you to....Kiss the person you like" he quickly said apparently still thinking about kisses

"You really think continuing the game is going to save you? I-" Nico froze completely as Will got up and walked over to him and kissed his cheek. He then quickly sat back down and looked at the ground while Nico stared at him with his mouth open.

"Wait.... you?....and.....you..." I said pointing at Will then at Nico.

"Leo! Truth or dare" Will said

"Dare. There's nothing this bad boy won't do" Leo said

"I dare you to hug Nico" Will said and Leo quickly downed a shot.

"Jason, truth or dare?" Leo asked

'Truth" Jason said

"How far have you gone with Piper" Leo asked

"Nevermind! I pick dare!" Jason said turning bright red.

"I dare you to tell us" Leo said with a smirk and Jason downed a shot.

"Dude really?" I asked

"You know silence says more then words sometimes" I said

"Truth or dare, Percy" Jason said

"Truth" I said

"What about you and Annabeth?" Jason asked and I quickly took a shot as my face heated up and everyone bursted out laughing.

"Looks like we're getting low on shots and snacks. Anyone want anything in particular from the store?" Nico asked as he get up

"More dip" Leo said

"And chips" Jason added

"I wish we had Blue bell here" Will said

"What's that?" I asked

"It's ice cream" Will said

"We have Ben and Jerry's." I said

"It's not the same. Could you just grab a doctor pepper?" Will said

"Sure" Nico said with a small smile.

"No shadow traveling" Will said as Nico walked to the door.

"Yeah, I know" Nico said. He paused for a moment at the door and looked at the whiteboard  before walking over to it and writing something then he walked out the door.

We all looked at each other before getting up and running over to the board.

"Don't let Fred in?" Jason asked as he read what Nico had wrote.

"Who's Fred?" Leo asked

"No idea. Probably just a prank to scar as since we only have a few day before Halloween" I said.

～Nico's point～

I want to grab the door handle but stopped as I thought back to everything that had happened in the last few weeks.

It all started when I saw him standing outside the house.

"Your kind are not suppose to be here" I said looking at him.

"I'm not hurting anyone" he whispered

"Keep it that way or I will send you back" I said before walking away.

Then there was the time when Will told me he saw something outside Leo's window. I knew he probably had seen him but I didn't want to scare him so I softly sang to him because he had said that soft music could help people sleep. Right as he started to go limp I saw looked out  one of the windows and saw him again.

"You are not to touch Will, that's a order" I said staring him down

"Fred wouldn't dream of it" he whispered.

"Your kind dosen't dream" I said and he walked away. I got up and closed all of the curtains in his room before walking out.

Then he got brave while I watched the movie with Hazel and Frank.

"What was that?" Frank asked as he  paused the movie.

"The wind" I said hoping he would leave it be. Fred scraped his nails down the wall outside again then a 3rd time and Frank paused the movie again

"Are you sure that's the wind?" He asked

"Stop it!" I yelled at Fred and he stopped

"Nico?" Hazel said. I silently told her what was wrong and lucky she understood and being a daughter of Pluto she understood not to mess with this kind of thing.

"Nico's right, it had been pretty windy lately. We should finish the movie" She said. And Frank reluctantly hit the play button and we continue watching. We got close to the end of the movie when I saw Fred run past the living room window from the corner of my eye. Frank quickly looked at me and Hazel and but I acted like I didn't see anything. then there were 3 soft knocks at the door. And Frank went to stand up but I put my arm out to stop him.

"Leave it" I said and he slowly lend back onto the couch.

It didn't take long for Fred to knock again but it was quicker this time but luckily Frank stayed on the couch but Fred wasn't going to give up easily. He started to bang on the door

"Please" He whisper and Frank shot up

"Frank! Do not open that door!" I yelled.

"They sound like they need help, they could be hurt" Frank said

"Frank please" Hazel said then the door handle jiggled and they banged on the door again. Frank ran to the door.

"That's not a invention! Stay out!" I yelled as Frank opened the door. I use all the energy I could to hold him back before grabbing Hazel and running over to Frank I shadow travelled away Hazel manged shut the front door right before we vanished. Then we appeared in town.

"Nico!" Hazel yelled before I completely lost consciousness.

I walked over to the whiteboard and pick up the green marker and wrote
"Don't let Fred in"
Then I walked out the door
