Prologue

[DISCLAIMER: I do not own the characters in this story. All rights to Rick Riordan, the brilliant mind behind all of this.]

Percy had changed. He lost himself years ago. He was on his own now, and he wasn't sure anyone or anything could help him.

But what if he was wrong?

Nico knew he was alone. His father left, and his mother and sister were both dead and gone. He knew there could be someone to break him, but the real question: Who?
