Three months after the Giant War

Bianca di Angelo

Zoë Nightshade

Hunters of Artemis

The first known casualties of the Titan War

May their souls rest in Elysium

Nico di Angelo stared dumbly at the wall of solid black granite. When Annabeth had come up with an idea for a memorial for fallen demigods, she had mentioned that Bianca and Zoë, who both had died on the quest to save Artemis, of course should be on it. She'd gotten permission from Chiron to build it almost immediately. Then came the days of planning locked up in the Athena cabin, and then the weeks of building, carving, and sanding, and then finally, the weekend after Thanksgiving, it was unveiled.

It was built like a timeline. With the beginning of the Titan War at one end and the end of the Giant War at the other. Nico had immediately rushed to the beginning, wanting to see that, indeed Annabeth had kept her promise. No, Nico thought No one ever remembers the children of Hades.

But no, surprisingly, Annabeth had, and there was Bianca's name, forever immortalized in stone. In her honor. Like she mattered. Because she did. And not just to Nico, but to all of Camp.

Nico felt a hand on his shoulder. "Here." Will Solace was holding out a bouquet of white lilies. "I thought these would be appropriate."

Nico nodded. "Thanks. Bianca would have," He faltered. "Would've loved them."

Will smiled faintly. "I'll leave you alone. I should get back to my cabin."

The wall was arranged into two parts, the Giant War and the Titan War, then it was split into sections of cabin or cohort and listed the names of those who died. The Apollo cabin was all clumped around the Apollo cabin's section of the Titan War, loudly singing some sad song.

"Go ahead." Nico gently pushed Will in the direction of his siblings. "Tell your cabin to quiet down, they are loud."

Will nodded and walked off, leaving Nico to his thoughts. He knelt and placed the bunch of lilies at the base of Bianca's section of the memorial. Nico sat there for a while, he didn't know how long. After what felt like forever, he stood up and turned around. To face Percy Jackson.

Nico groaned. He didn't want to talk to him right now, not today. "What do you want Percy?''

Percy shrugged. "She'd be proud of you. Anyways, Jason made me come over to tell you that you should come hang out with your friends. You should be with the living today."

Nico rolled his eyes. "What friends, Percy?"

"Uhh," Percy pretended to think. "Weeell, there's Jason, annnd Will, and Reyna, and others."

Nico shook his head. "And others? Really Percy? That's the best you can do?"

The teen in question shrugged. "Probably not. But that's not the point."

"Fine." Nico admitted. "I'll come join you people. What are you guys even doing anyways?"

Percy thought for a second. "Something Leo made up called Spin Around and Point at Someone and They Have to do the Craziest Thing You Can Come Up With. Jason has dubbed it the Crazy Spin & Point Challenge."

Nico gulped. "I should have asked before I agreed. But I suppose I'm stuck now, aren't I?"

Percy grinned. "Yup!" He grabbed Nico's arm. "C'mon Death Boy. You're having fun today."

Nico sighed, and let Percy pull him towards the small group of demigods waiting for him. What have I gotten myself into?

And that's a wrap! Sorry I haven't updated recently, I've been busy and completely brain dead on one-shot ideas. Wow, I typed this up in less than a day! That's a record, since I'm not stuck in a car on a road trip. I am very sorry that this isn't the longest chapter I've written yet, but if anyone wants me to write a chapter on the Crazy Point & Spin Challenge, leave a review and let me know.

I will try to get another chapter out soon, so if you guys have any ideas, let me know and I will make a one-shot out of it. (One that's hopefully longer than this one) Or I can also make another memorial chapter featuring a different character.

Anyways, Please leave a review. They make my day!
