Rest

The blood seemed to have some effect on the wall.  The wall slid to the side like sliding doors.

" We should rest for the night, we have a big day tommorow. " Reyna said.

We unpacked our sleeping bags and lined them up so our heads were facing each other.  Connor lined up traps like a boundary line around our sleeping territory. 

Nico and I decided to take the 1st shift even though Connor insisted we were safe. Anyway I didn't feel like sleeping anyway.

I pressed on my trident mark. Poseidon taught me a way to summon my trident without taking away my sword bracelet.

I created a second barrier made of pure stone from the ocean. I could have made it with or without it but I wanted to experiment my trident' s limit.

I kept it and Nico and I sat on the outside. 

" I have a feeling that I will be the one that'll have the final showdown" I finally said.

Talking together would have been nice. Especially at night,  when no harpies can tear us to bits but this was more like a stressed conversation.

"It's okay, we'll do this together" Nico squeezed my hand comfortingly.  He smiled but I can see creases of worry around his eyes.

" No.  something is going to pull you away from me when the time comes"

"Just me?"

"Everyone"

I rubbed my birthmark some more. We looked up. Where the ceiling was, was the open night sky. We spotted Zoë the hunter constellation.

When Nico saw it, he looked distracted and almost angry. I stroked his arm. "Do you want to talk about it?"

"When Bianca died a hero, she had nothing to be remembered by. Zoë had her own constellation"

I couldn't think of anything to comfort him so I decided to give him a hug.  "I'm just lucky that I could see you again" Nico said as he rested his head on my shoulder.
