okay, this one will be sad. Not fluffy. Sorry. Just a warning. Continue. I was inspired by this music to write something sad. Enjoy! Sorry in advance.

Just so you know, in this AU, Will and Nico were best friends and the joining forces with the Romans didn't work. So, that means that Hazel, Jason, and Frank are on the side of the Romans. AND THEY ARE RUTHLESS WARRIORS WHO SHOW NO MERCY.  

Will's pov

Everything is crazy. Greeks and Romans everywhere. Fighting. All I can hear right now are screams. The fallen ones, the ones falling. Blood. The only colour I see right now is red. Death. You can just feel it in the air. The body's on the ground, the stench of the dead. I shouldn't be here. I should be helping to heal those who are only injured. I can't though, but thankfully my brothers and sisters are in the infirmary. I was told to help the Greeks because I'm pretty good with a sword.

I shouldn't be here. 

 "Well, well, well," says the voice of a girl. I turn around to see a thirteen-year-old girl with chocolate colour skin, gold eyes and curly cinnamon colour hair. Hazel. Nico's half-sister. 

"Hazel, please I don't want to hurt you," I whisper. She doesn't seem to hear me. 

"You know, my brother's going to be so upset to find out that you, his crush, is dead," she snarls. Wait what? You know what? Nevermind, I'll deal with that later. I tighten my grip on my sword. 

"I won't let that happen. And I'm not going to kill you, just injure," I say. She shrugs. 

"Whatever," she takes her sword and raises it over her head. She swings down, trying to cut my head, but I move out of the way. Hazel stumbles, and during this, I take my sword and cut her arm. She screams, but I doubt anybody can hear. She stands up and looks at her bleeding arm. She looks me in the eyes. She lifts her sword and runs towards me. I block her. This goes on for about a minute. Finally, I have her on the ground, barely being able to move. She's bleeding everywhere "do it," she says, weakly "kill me," I lift my sword, but I just can't bring myself to do it. I may not have known Hazel all to well, but she was Nico's sister. Suddenly, I feel a sharp pain through my stomach. I look down to see a sword through my gut. I turn my head around to see Frank. 

"Frank...?" I whisper. 

"Let this be a lesson to you. Do. Not. Hurt. Hazel," he says through gritted teeth. I fall to the ground. The pain is... I can't even begin to describe how much this hurts.

"Will!" I hear a voice say. I look up to see someone with floppy black hair run my way. I can't tell you it is because my vision is fading. Then, I black out. 

Percy's POV

I see Will fall to the ground. Frank is picking up Hazel and running "Will!" I call out. I run over to him, only to find an awful wound in his gut. His eyes are closed, so he must have blacked out or... no. He's not dead. I pick up his body, bridal style and run to the infirmary. I kick down the door "I need a doctor! Now!" I yell. Nico was helping the other Apollo kids with their patients, so I'm hoping he won't  notice me. He does. He looks up and sees Will. His face goes pale and he runs over to me. 

"What happened?" He demanded. 

"Frank... he... he-" Nico puts his hand up. 

"Stop. Bring him to the room over there," he says as he points to the end of the hall. He and I run over to the hall, to find Kayla standing around. She takes Will into the room. Nico and I try to follow, but she says not now. Nico is on the verge of tears. I put my arm around his shoulder and we walk to the waiting room. We take a seat, and  not even three minutes later, an Apollo kid walks up to me. 

"I'm... I'm sorry Percy. Annabeth... Well, she was in worse condition than we thought. She... she passed away," the Apollo kid says. I just stare at him in shoc"she told us to tell you that... she loves you with all her heart and that you should move on," how can I move on? I will never be able to move on. The Apollo kid walks away, leaving me stunned and speechless. Nico puts his hand on my shoulder. 

"I'm... I'm so sorry Percy," he says. I don't listen. Annabeth was-is- everything to me. I can't let her go. Not in a thousand years. Kayla walks up to us. 

"Nico?" she asks. Nico perks up. 

"Yes?" he asks, eagerly. 

"Will... Will is conscious, but..." she trailed off and stared into space. 

"But what?" I ask.

"But... he doesn't have long to live. He... he wants to see you. Both of you," she says. Nico has tears streaming down his face, but he isn't sobbing. 

"Okay," he squeaks. He and I stand up and follow Kayla. She opens the door, and inside we see Will in a bed. His skin is pale, his stomach has a bandage on it. He smiles weakly. 

"Nico..." Will croaks. Nico runs to the side of his bed and grabs his hand. 

"I'm here, I'm here. Everything will be okay, okay? Everything will be fine..." Nico says. Will looks him in the eye.

"Now isn't the time for lies, Nico," he says. Nico starts crying. I'm honestly shocked. I've never seen Nico this upset. Sure, he's got the jimjams (A/N just so you know, 'jimjams' is, in fact, a legit word. It means extreme nervousness; jitters. Carry on) before, but I've never seen him like this. 

"I should have been out there with you, this is all my fault..." Nico says between hiccups. Will frowns. 

"Don't go blaming yourself on this, it isn't your fault," Will says. 

"I know,but-"

"Nico,"

"What?"

"Thank you," Nico cries harder and kisses Will's forehead. Will smiles and turns his head towards me "Percy,"

"Yeah?" I ask. 

"You... you were the one who saved me...?"

"As much as I could,"

"Thanks," I nod. Will turns his head towards Nico again "I suppose, that since I'm... well, dying, I should tell you something," he tells him. 

"What is it?" Nico asks. Wills Motions Nico to bring his head closer. Will whispers something to him, but I can't hear. When Nico lifts his head up, Will's eyes are staring into space "no..." Nico whimpers "no, no, no, no. Will! Will, come back to me, Will!" Kayla tries to pull Nico away, but he resists. "No! No! You cAn't make me leave without him! Please..." Kayla is not giving up. She keeps trying to pull Nico away, but Nico just runs back to Will. Kayla gives up after about... four tries? Five? I lost count. Nico sobs on Will's chest. After a second or two, Nico looks up and turns his head towards me. His face is filled with rage, sadness and... determination. He stands. 

 up and walks past me out the door. I follow him. 

"Where are you going?" I ask. Nico walks  out the door and unsheaths his sword.

"The son of a bitch needs to die," and with that, he runs out into the woods. 

Nico's POV

The emotional pain I feel inside right now is the worse it's ever been. Will. My Will just died. I look around, trying to find Frank. I kill every Roman in my way and regret nothing. After an hour of searching, I finally find him. I quietly walk up to him from behind and swing my sword. I hear a thump at my feet. I look down to see his head, rolling away "that's for Will," I mumble. 

"Frank!" I hear a voice call out. I look behind me to see my sister, Hazel staring at me with anger. She was about to run towards me, but Percy stabs her. I didn't know Percy had followed me. He looks like he's about to shout something. Then, I feel it. I've been stabbed. I look down to see a sword stained with blood in my heart. I fall and everything fades to black. 

****

"Nico?" I hear a familiar voice say. I open my eyes to see Will standing over me. I must be in the underworld. I must have died. That or I'm seeing things. 

"Will?" I mumble. He smiles. 

"Hi, death boy. I'm right here, I promise," I stand up and hug him. I cry on his shoulder, and he cries on mine. 

"Will?" I ask.

"Yeah?"

"I never got to respond to what you told me,"

"Yeah?" I pull away slightly and kiss him. Kissing him is just what I imagined it to be. He kisses back and our lips move in synchronicity. When we pull away for air, I whisper in his ear:

"I love you too,"

Okay, I think this came out really good. Seriously, though, when I got this idea I was like 'should I attempt to be an evil person? YES,' so... yeah. I tried to make it kind of a sad/happy ending. 

Stay awesome my fabulous t-rexs!
