Heroes of Hogwarts

Will woke up to sunshine.  

He was feeling really happy. He had a great night with Nico and the Seven yesterday. Despite Leo's cheeky grin, Jason's not at all subtle wink,  Annabeth and Percy dove eyes and  Reyna s silent observation; Will's eyes only had time for Nico's dark chocolate ones; He feels like he's drowning in them; loving as they lightened up at the word "Mythomagic"  transforming him into that excitable kid 10 year old Will had crush on.

Still have a crush on.  It was difficult to pinpoint Will's feelings towards Nico. He was disappointed and angry learning Nico was leaving Camp ; he was always angry or at least trying to be angry at the shorter boy(and failing miserably). Even then Nico di Angelo made Will feel the happiest even without trying.

In short Will was in high spirit.

Well, until Nico was not found in his Cabin.

"It's been a month! Kayla, he's been gone for a month!"

"Will relax, maybe he has some work in the underworld; a mission from Hades or something"

"I don't think he'll leave for a freaking month without telling anybody Kayla, he promised me on the river Styx that he'll stay; it's something else.., Something's wrong i can feel it"

"Well... Chiron called a meeting. Jason , Annabeth and Percy would be here ....Hell, half of Camp Jupiter is searching for him right now, Will.... Where ever he is, We'll find him "

"And ...it seems like they have arrived "

"Hey Will!" Boomed in Percy Jackson's voice. Percy, Annabeth and Jason were walking towards him.  

"Hello guys." Will said warily.

It's Percy Jackson. To be honest Will had mixed feelings about this guy. Don't get him wrong, he had nothing against percy for gods' sake the kid had saved the camp for more than he can count anr he has mad respect to him for standing up to freaking gods, he like the guy okay? It's just he doesn't get why EVERYONE is falling for him . Yeah he's handsome and has a hero complex and all that but...he doesn't save everybody okay....like Micheal. Percy couldn't save Micheal; he was with Piper on Percy, he cannot see why half the camp is drooling over this guy.  He might like black hair but Percy was definitely not his type.

"Or maybe you are just jealous because Nico used to have a crush on him."  

A small annoying  voice in his head said.

"Shut up, he said to that voice "

"Hello Earth to Will, Earth to Will, " Percy said waving his hand. 

"When did you last sleep man ? You look Horrible...um no offence."

"None taken i feel horrible....he rubbed his temple, it's just...i am worried about Nico you know and the infirmary...it's a lot "

Everybody's faces turned to worry now 

"So it's true huh, Nico's really missing." Jason said. 

"Are you sure He's missing? I mean he has a streak for leaving Camp without informing anyone.....it's just i thought he would stay this time you know he seemed really eager to stay"

"Yeah...I don't think he left either. It's ...it's something else. I think..i think he's in trouble"

"Don't worry Will, We will find him". Annabeth spoke for the first time. Her grey eyes pierced into his blue ones with such clarity like she knew exactly  what he was going through. Like she's the only one who will understand him.

Will took their hands and together they ran to the big house.

"We'll find him."

*†*††*††***†**†***†**†+†***†***†+**†*††*

"As you all know, Nico di Angelo has been missing for the  past month. We have send several search parties but everything has being since unsuccessful. We have  also been in contact with  Rachel Dare, She'd inform us if a quest is involved".

At the mention of 'quest' both Percy and Jason winced.

"Are you sure it'll come to that, Chiron...i could really do with not having to die every few seconds 

"We can only hope it won't, Percy but we can never be sure."

"Wait....there's not another camp the gods have been hiding from us, is there? "

"No Percy Camp Jupiter and Camp half-blood are the only camps there is"

Everyone lets out a collective relief.

Afterwards they iris messaged Frank, Hazel and Reyna. Their worrying faces mirrored Will's own.

"So, there's no  news of him."  Hazel sighed

"We have already sent search parties from Camp Jupiter to all the stops where he usually ends up after shadow travel  but we have got no positive response...yet"

Reyna said with her usual poker face on  but anyone could tell she was worried about Nico.

"Well , i have decided to go to the underworld myself, i think it'd be better you know ...even if I'd have to face Pluto ..it's just it pisses me off you know how he is not responding to any of my prayers!! It's just.." and then she said  something  which Wil was pretty sure would have made put the nuns to shame back in her time.

Frank was looking worridly at her. When they were ready to disconnect Frank had said :"it's just that Nico would be the last person i want  to go missing, not just because he is Nico but also because with his shadow travel, it'd literally be like searching for a needle in a haystack "

When they were all going out , Chiron had called Will;

 "Look i heard you are over working yourself again; Kayla and Austin had asked me to temporarily delegate the infirmary duties to them; take care of yourself and don't loose hope Will."

Easy for Chiron to say, he's not going crazy, he's not loosing his mind.

Nico, where are you?

Somewhere far away, miles away, safer to say even a universe away, the subject of all this commotion was happily getting ready to have  another great Weasley breakfast .
