(Oh, thanks.) Nicole sat down on the edge of the bed and smiled at him. "It's okay, really. I was just worried about you." She gave him a confused look. "Made a deal with who? Why is he going after us?"

"So you really don't remember..." Jay paused, "guys I think you should come back in here. You all need to hear this." he waited for the others to come inside. "Nicole, you died." Jay paused again pursing his lips, "Things weren't going well for Thanatos and Charon. Fortunately I was there to help them. I gave them my word I would guide the dead who were lost to their clutches. In return they gave me the power open and close the rips in dimensions as a pleased, allowing me to travel easy from here to the isles." Jay clutched his wound and continued. "Then you died, and I found you...wandering, Thanatos has yet to have claimed you. I couldn't give you up, so I snuck into the underworld with you and quickly dipped you into the Lethe, making you forget your own death and therefor the last parts of your time at you old home." Jay grasped the knife and showed it to his friends, "this is called the blade of revenge. Thanatos usually guards it, so that noone is able to wield it. But both Thanatos and Charon missed out on their quotas by one soul that day. Your soul. The one I was supposed to guide to them. Charon was the one who stabbed me in the back for my betrayal. Thanatos GAVE him the blade of revenge." Jay took a deep breath, "in order to stop your death from ever happening, I took you, still unconscious, to the good Kronos in The Isles. He agreed to create a slightly altered timeline in which your murderer ceases to exist. This is the timeline we live in today. In order for this to happen I had to promise Kronos to leave a rip open to the real world." Jay winced, "now he's found out that in this world he has so much more power and more potential being evil...so he's guided his titan forces to meet the titans of our world in Tatarus. The Titans from the Isles are breaking our Titans out as we speak and now Charon and Thanatos are ready to pounce on us. I've messed a lot of stuff up in my time...but this is a record for me."

Nicki walked inside, and Anabelle had walked up, wondering what all the commotion was about. Nicki listened silently, then gave a low whistle when he had finished. "Well, what's done is done. Only question is, how do we fix it?"
Anabelle nodded. "There's still time Jay. There has to be."

Cory walked in beside Anabelle and looked at Jay, "You can't be serious." He turned to the other demigods, "You guys couldn't possibly know how bad this is, not being children of the Underworld. We know our power limits, or most of us do," he glanced at Jay, "but we sometimes strive to get more, and when that happens the Underworld goes into chaos. It sucks that this is happening to Jay the way it is, and the same is happening to me, but in a lesser form, a form that isn't going to destroy the world." He seemed to be watching Jay by the time he was done, waiting for him to explode or something.

Nicole was speechless. Thoughts zoomed through her mind. I-I died? Who killed me? No wonder I couldn't remember leaving home. Oh my gods, what's going to happen? Why didn't Jay just let me stay in the Underworld? She wasn't angry at Jay, she never did get mad when he got in trouble, but she was worried, really worried. Nikki simply nodded when Anabelle spoke, showing she agreed.

Jay glared at Cory, "yes thank you for your insight on power, we know that's my fatal flaw. I get too cocky." Jay stared at Nicole, "I couldn't lose you, so now I'll do everything in my power to protect you. I'm going to have to open another rip to The Isles...I can't just do it with Ace and Jess this time though, they've had to join the new titan army, parental thing yknow." Jay winced as he spoke, "I need you guys to come with me."

River nodded and said, "I still have all the gear the gods gave me on the Summer Solstice. I'm set when you are, pal." Cory looked at Jay, "What would my status be to the Titan Army if I am Uranus and Nyx's son? I shouldn't go if I'd be killed instantly if captured, or if they could use me."

Jay nodded, "I may have to rest a bit more, but we can head off in about a week." He turned to Cory, "You? They wouldn't know you, and I hope you aren't planning on being captured."

"Yeah, he does need to rest. Jay isn't going anywhere till that cut heals." Nicki replied.
"He sure isn't planning on it." Anabelle spoke up.

"Don't apologize Jay. What's done is done. I don't know how much use to you I'll be, but I'll do what I can." Anabelle said.

"Alright" he said, "now we need a plan."

Anabelle nodded. "Well, being a daughter of the goddess and wisdom and battle strategy, I'll be able to help with that."

Cory nodded, "I'm sure I can spy, since I could be a good pawn to them. But we can figure that out, for now you should rest. If you need me," he glanced at Anabelle, "I'll be in the woods." He walked out.
River said, "I should...start looking for Max."
