The Demi- Wizards Quest

Sneaking Out of Camp

'Six shall go west to the goddess in chains,
One shall be lost in the land without rain,
The bane of Olympus shows the trail,
Campers and Hunters combined prevail,
The Titan's curse must one withstand,
And one shall perish by a parent's hand.'
Then, as they were watching, the mist swirled and retreated like a great green serpent into the mummy's mouth. The Oracle sat down on a rock and became as still as she'd been in the attic, as if she might sit by this creek for a hundred years.

3rd Person P.O.V.

Draco woke up in the afternoon, he was tired after playing capture the flag and had just been discharged from the infirmary by a son of Apollo named Will Solace. Quite the doctor and a pretty nice guy by the way, he sighed and got off his sleeping bag and off to find Percy.

Draco checked most of the places that he thought Percy could be in he checked the beach, the lunchroom, the practicing arena, even went to see if he was in his cabin, but to no use. Right now he was heading to where they kept the Pegasus and hold and behold, Percy was there. "Finally found you," He said as he walked up to Percy. Percy looked startled at the sound of Draco's voice and stopped talking to a pitch back Pegasus behind him. "Oh- uh.. sorry..?" Percy said as he scratched the back of his head looking sheepishly at Draco.

Draco chuckled and just stared at Percy, "You want to go save her, am I right?" Draco asked Percy, and before he could say anything back he interrupted him. "I'll go with you, she's my friend too besides two is better than one," Draco smirked at Percy as he saw him gap at him, "How- What?" Percy said stumbling with his words as he looked at Draco with a look of shock mix with confusion. "I said I'll go with you to the quest. Following the hunters I mean," Draco rubbed his nose through his mask. Percy nodded and they sat down and planned what they were going to do.

oOo

They both waited until the hunters left the big house to make their move as they went to the woods where they expected to meet up with the Pegasus that agreed to help them, BlackJack. Draco stopped and grabbed Percy's wrist when he heard a loud

SNAP!

Draco jumped and look over to the place where he thought the sound came from. He let out a sigh of relief when he noticed it was just Nico in some of the bushes. When Nico looked up he smiled sheepishly at being caught and got off the bush, Draco tilted his head at Percy as saying 'I'll-handle-this-you-go-we'll-meet-up-later.' Percy caught on and just nodded leaving Draco alone with Nico. "Hey kiddo, what are you doing here?" Draco asked Nico.

Nico just looked down, "I-I just wanted to go with you and Percy.... I know you're going to follow the hunters, so I thought I could come and spend more time with Bianca," Nico mumbled his shoes playing with the dirt beneath him. Draco let out a smile even if he knew that Nico wouldn't see it, he kneeled in front of Nico. "You know that you can't get out of the camp without getting in trouble with Chiron, so yeah Percy and I are going but that's because we have experience in it. So, how about this you stay here and make some friends while we're gone and once we come back we'll tell you all about the quest, alright?" He asked Nico softly, Nico just nodded and frowned a bit. "Okay.... just promise me you and Percy will look after Bianca for me," Nico said looking straight into Draco's eyes.

Draco sighed, "We'll try our best at looking out for her, but Bianca's a big girl now she knows what she's doing. Anyways here let me give you something." Nico looked up excitedly at Draco. Draco search his right pocket and pulled out a brown bag, he grabbed the top of the bag and pulled sideways making the bag open up. Draco gently grabbed Nico's hand and turned the bag letting its continents fall into Nico's hand. "There it's yours just make sure that no one at the cabin sees it, I'm sure they'll try to steal it," Draco chuckled softly as Nico looked at the necklace with awe.
