Chapter 9
There were times that Nico really hated being right. This was one of those times. The look that Percy and Will had exchanged had indeed been about the fuel for the car. That morning, when Nico woke up, Percy and Will were already dealing with their nonexistent gas for the car.
“What do we do?” Will asked with a sigh, standing outside the car. The blond had his flannel shirt tied around his waist as he leaned against the car.
Percy's hair was a mess, not to mention that the guy looked exhausted. When Nico had gone to sleep, Percy had still been driving. Had the green-eyed boy driven all night? “We could walk.&

(I don't normally insert notes on here at the beginning of my chapters, but this chapter includes a very serious issue. Just as a warning, there is mentions of rape and implied rape in this chapter. More about it after the chapter is over)
Chapter 7
Two days in a car with Percy and Will, Nico managed to remember why he wasn't much of a people person. He felt his eye twitch as he stared out the window, his hands pressed tightly against his ears. It didn't help that the two other boys knew that they were getting on his nerves and were now just trying to antagonize him with their obnoxious singing.
He hadn't minded it at first, when it was

The next day, Nico found a very disheartening surprise in the middle of a conversation with Percy Jackson. Hazel had warned him that the blonde was going to visit Camp Half-Blood, but seeing her in person still caught Nico a little off-guard. He didn't hate Annabeth, or the fact that she came to visit. But now Nico just felt that all of his efforts had been tossed out the window. Being with the girls for the short amount of time had left Nico a little hopeful, and that was also after hearing similar things from two children of Aphrodite. Nico had foolishly begun to hope that he could get somewhere with Percy.
But now?
Now, Nic

For a long time, Percy just sat in front of Nico and stared at the boy with his legs crossed. Nico waited patiently for the green-eyed teenager to say something, anything. However, when Percy finally did speak, Nico remembered that intelligence was not this guy's strength.
“So, are you like some kind of intelligent zombie?”
Nico gave him a disbelieving look before he rolled his eyes. “Really? That's the first thing you could think of?” The brown-eyed boy ran a hand through his hair. “Nice to see you, too, Percy.”
“Uh, sorry.” Percy rubbed the back of his neck. There was a small

“What does it matter what my favorite color is?” Nico growled, shoving the blond next to him.
Will stumbled from trying to balance himself on some train tracks that they were following. They had arrived in a small town outside of Dayton, Ohio a little over an hour ago, only to find the road they needed to take completely blocked off. Since it was getting dark, Will had suggested they make camp for the night. And by camp, he meant they search the houses until they found a suitable one.
Not that it would seem to matter. Most of the town had been surrounded in barb wire, blockades, and cars. If there had been zombies

It had been three days, yet Will still refused to let them leave. Nico had broken out with a fever a few hours after Will had gotten back from searching the city, but that had gone down a day ago. At least the blond idiot hadn't left the condo for very long. Aside from changing the oil, Will had kept himself confined to the condo.
Nico sat on the couch, wiping his nose and staring out on the balcony. The rain had lasted two days, and Will was trying to collect some water from buckets he had left outside. If Nico were being honest with himself, he might have been a little distracted by the fact that Will was currently bent over o

“What about the river?”
Percy's lips pressed into a thin line as he handed Nico part of his cookie. “It sucked, but we needed to survive.” Those sea-green eyes focused on the pale boy across from him on the floor of his cabin. “So, you still haven't told me how you got through that place by yourself.”
Nico smirked as he dipped his cookie into a glass of milk. “I suppose that will just have to remain a mystery.” The younger boy did not miss the pout that Percy gave him. “So, you ran into Akhyls?”
“Yeah,” Percy muttered, rubbing the back of his neck. ̶

On the fifth night since he met Will, Nico was not afforded the luxury of warm bed. Or a bed at all, really. Instead, the trunk of a car served as their bed. Nico had originally felt victorious over the fact that he got to sleep next to where the backseat pulled down into the trunk. That was until he realized that Will was probably afraid the trunk might open in the middle of the night. Stupid jerk.
Unfortunately, the reliability of the lock on the trunk was being put to the test at the moment. When Nico woke up, his eyes were met with darkness. He shifted the small blanket that he had placed to separate the opening into the res

“Remind me again why you're looking for another car?” Nico sighed and rested his elbow on top of the red car they had been riding in. He blinked over to another car, where the lower half of Will poked out from under the hood. “This one is still working.”
A blond head of hair emerged from underneath the hood. Will raised a hand and wiped his forehead, which only managed to smear some grease on his face. “I just thought we could use a better ride. There's no telling how long we're going to be riding around, so I'd just like a car that has good mileage on it.”
Nico rolled his eyes. “Any l

There has probably been hundreds of different ways that people had theorized how the world would end over the many years that humans have walked the face of the planet. Unfortunately, the one that actually happened involved most of those same humans becoming infected to terrorize the living. Yes, zombies. Well, if that was what people wanted to call it.
See, it wasn't like the traditional zombies that came back to life, or even like in The Walking Dead, where everyone apparently was already infected. Before the power died, the media had been calling it a rage virus. Symptoms included a fever, slow increase in hunger, and irratio
