Enjoy!
It'd been just over a month since Lily Green had been claimed by her mother, Demeter. In that one month, she'd learned enough that she could recognize the vast majority of the campers. So it was a surprise when she entered the arena to find a boy clad in all black sitting on the side. Thinking back, she couldn't remember seeing anyone who looked like him and wondered if he was also a new camper. But this boy didn't look like he was under 13 and no new campers had come in the last few days.
She approached with caution. "Um, hello. Are you new here?"
The boy looked up. He had pale skin and dark black eyes. With his dark hair and dark clothing, he gave off an aura of death that was hard to miss. His eyes seemed to bore into Lily, making her take a step back. "Nope."
Lily quickly recovered. "I haven't seen you around here before.."
"I've...been around. Took a trip to Italy, spent a week in New Rome, spent a week chasing rougue hellhounds." He shrugged, standing up.
Lily was surprised by the fact that the boy was no taller then her. "Oh...I'm Lily Green, daughter of Demeter, by the way. Just came here last month."
"Nico di Angelo, son of Hades. Been here on and off for the last few years."
"I thought the Hades cabin was empty though.. It's all boarded up and stuff." Lily wondered.
Nico just sighed. "That's because the Hermes cabin decided it would be a grand joke to do all of that while I was off doing stuff. I haven't unboarded it yet though, turning the tables back on them since I needed darker curtains and that lot covered all the windows so problem solved."
Lily wondered what kind of person would want to spend so much time in complete darkness but didn't want to push it, as Nico had a large black sword strapped to his belt and Lily was pretty sure he knew how to use it. Then she had a thought. "Wait...you're the only one in the Hades cabin, right?" He nodded. "Then...you're one of the counselors?" He nodded.
Lily took a deep breath before asking, "Then..are you the one dating Will Solace?"
Nico's expression was unreadable. "Maybe."
"Oh admitt it already, yes he is." WIll Solace's grinning face appeared at the entrance to the arena. "Hey Lily. I see you've met the resident Ghost King." he added.
"O-oh Hi Will. Wait, Ghost King?" she asked.
Will chuckled. "Long story. C'mon, it's almost dinnertime. We can tell it to you on the way to the dining pavilion."
Lily nodded and the trio began walking, Will and Nico telling Lily about Nico's claim to the title of the Ghost King.
Any one-shots I should do? Let me know!
