My Imanginary Friend (Nico di Angelo X Fem!Reader)

There Were Two

"You do know where were going, right?" I asked looking at the small hills that surrounded us on both sides. I tightened my grip around Jean's waist as he calmly lead Blackjack deeper into the valley.

I sent (P/N) off with a message to camp to tell them we had made it. Apparently, their usual way of communicating wasn't working.

"Yeah just a bit farther," Jean assured me not taking his eyes off the ground.

Blackjack suddenly paused looking around frantically. "Hey what's wrong?" I asked confused. He didn't seem scared.

"I can smell Boss and-" he snorted moving forward again. "Cyclops and king?"

My eyes widened remembering my dream a while back with Percy in it. "The Cyclops are bad! They're under attack!" I shouted. "We have to hurry!"

Blackjack wasted no time in rushing forward following his nose. Jean tightened his grip onto Blackjack's mane as I hugged Jean tighter.

"You got a plan?!" Jean shouted at me.

"Help them!" I shouted back as a metal door came into view. It was wide open showing off a beautiful place that was currently a warzone. "Stop!" I ordered.

Blackjack obeyed digging his hooves into the ground to make him stop. I let go of Jean jumping onto the ground.

"Switch places," I said as Jean raised an eyebrow confused. "Bow."

"Oh yeah." Jean chuckled awkwardly moving backward to leave me a bit of room in the front. He held a hand out to me, which I took and got back on Blackjacks back.

I grabbed his mane before grinning. "Let's go!" I cheered making Blackjack run through the metal doors. Inside was absolute chaos. Cyclops were fighting demigods, and demigods were fighting Cyclops. But instead if just teenagers, there were a few adults too and this place was much bigger than Camp Half-Blood. It was also decked out in gold. A Cyclops noticed us as it growled rushing towards us with a wooden shaft. Before it could it close an arrow lodge itself into its eye making it disappeared into dust.

I turned around to see Jean holding his bow a grin on his face. "Let's get in the air, I'll have a better view."

I nodded looking forward. Blackjack already knew what to do as he spread his dark wings and took off. Above wasn't much better. A few buildings were on fire. And I saw a giant with snake hair and beard.

"Polybotes," I mumbled recognizing the opposite of Neptune.

"Boss!"

I saw a familiar dark-haired boy not too far from Polybotes. "We have to help him!"

A stick flew by us harmlessly. "You're a terrible thrower!" Jean shouted below us. "Then let's get going!"

"Blackjack fly behind him," I ordered as the black Pegasi obeyed me. "Jean stay on Blackjack."

"Wha-No were a team," Jean argued I couldn't see but I knew he was pouting. "You go down, we both go down."

Typical. My eyes wandered to the only river in this place that seemed to be moving at a fast pace. "I have another idea. How do you feel about getting wet?"

"I'm already wet." Jean reminded me as Blackjack was directly behind Polybotes who had all his attention on Percy.

"Good. Meet me at the rivers." I ordered my hands gripping the mini hilt of my sword. I ripped it off letting my sword expanded into its full size in my hand.

"Why-" I didn't get hear the end as I jumped off of Blackjack.

I know I've mentioned it before I'm scared of flying. Not the height but the action of moving while in the sky. Back there on Blackjack, I was calm mostly due to the fact I'm used to riding on horseback while flying. But right now as I'm falling on the back of a giant meant to kill my dad, my friend.
