You are a child of Hades and C/N is a child of whoever. I hope you guys enjoy it!

I've been at camp half blood for several years now. I stay here because I have nowhere else to go and I'm dangerous. Children of the big three tend to be anyway.
   No one sees me and I'm fine with it. I keep my distance and no one gets hurt. I found out a few years ago I have a brother and sister but she's dead.
Nico has been in and out of camp, going between our camp and Camp Jupiter, the Roman camp.
When he does come, he doesn't stay in the Hades cabin often. He interacts with people more.

C/N POV
I walked up to Nico and Will at the Hades table.
"Hey C/N. What's up?" Nico was frowning, staring at his plate.
"I was wondering if the rumors are true," Nico looked up and nodded.
"What rumors?" Will looked confused.
"Everyone in camp thinks there's another Hades child. She hasn't left the cabin since she got here. She was like me, born before the agreement that the big three shouldn't have kids. She's fading and I'm almost not able to reach her. When I come back, I try but she pushes me away and fade further into the darkness."
"What does that mean?"
"You know how I shadow travel and if I do it a lot without breaks, I can fade into the shadows?" I nodded. "Same scenario but she hasn't moved in years," I got up and went to the Hades cabin.
   I opened the door and saw the outline of a pale girl with dark hair and cloths. She didn't look up, even when I sat on the floor next to the bed. I hesitantly reached my hand towards her and I saw her stiffen. I touched her shoulder and closed my eyes. 
   I sensed someone behind me but I ignored them. I mentally reached out to the girl and she looked at me in shock.
"Why do you want to save me? No one wants me around. I'm already fading," I shook my head.
"I don't know you that well but I want you to survive and so does Nico. Don't push us away," I opened my eyes and saw the girl staring at me. She looked at her hands then around the room.
"I thought I was gone. I was back at the casino. A man returned and told me to run to the east coast. I would find a camp for kids like me. I was maybe 5... 7 at the time. Don't really remember. Came here and saw visions of me. I lost control, destroyed everything. No one could stop me. I blocked myself off, hoping if I went dormant, I wouldn't become a threat," I felt someone sit beside me and the girl broke down in tears.
"I'm sorry Nico. I felt the past was behind me and I could return but you made me push further into..."
"I call it the darkness. It comes with being a child of Hades. We can talk more about your past after you eat some food," me and Nico stood and he held his hand out. The girl almost fell over and we helped her outside.
She held up her hand to block the harsh rays. The rest of camp went quiet, a disturbing thought with how busy half bloods are. We get her to the Hades table and got her to eat some food.
"It feels weird to eat again. I was almost in a coma, but I was getting food and water and I was awake. Doing know how either happened," Chiron walked over to us.
"The rumors are true. I'm glad you've returned, Y/N," she nodded.
"I'm glad to be awake. At least you managed to keep me alive," he nodded and walked away. "One of (C/N godly parent) will wake the sleeping darkness before the solstice and reunite the children of the keeper of death without an apocalyptic world to return to," she continued to eat and we stared at her.
"I forgot about the (godly parent) part. That's why C/N is here. How did you find out about her?" I shrugged.
"No rumors, just me doing my normal reading minds thing. You have been anxious here recently so I read you thoughts and put two and two together. Something forced me to help her and I'm glad it did. I don't think it would have been good for the camp of a repeat of last time happened," I smirked and Nico rolled his eyes. We left for the campfire and Y/N followed Nico to his usual seat.

Y/N POV
Everyone went back to their cabin and I yawned. I entered the cabin and saw Nico was missing. I imagined his face and the scenery around me changed. I saw huge trees and a light ahead of me. I saw a dark figure in front of a fire, his back turned to me. I saw a pale figure and some boxes. A branch broke and Nico stood and whirled around in an instant.
"Who's there?" He held a black sword in his hand and I slowly stood.
"I was worried about you and ended up here somehow," he waved me over and I sat beside him. "Bianca? Your his older sister, aren't you?" The figure nodded and smiled at me.
"How did you know that?"
"You talked in your sleep. You would pace the room, hoping she was alive. Then the cabin was quiet for a long time after that," the girl ducked her head.
"I have news, Nico. I'm moving on to another life," Nico looked surprised and she continued. "I won't be able to meet with you like this anymore. I love you and I'll see you soon," she drifted into the ground.
"Wait, Bianca," a few tears slipped down his face. I put an arm around him and we ended up in the cabin. I pulled him into a hesitant hug and he hugged me back. "Thanks, Y/N."

A few days later
We walked to Thalia's tree, Nico in the front. We met up with Annabeth and Percy and Nico hung back. I walked to him and he looked away from the engaged couple.
"Something isn't right," I rolled my eyes.
"Annabeth is pregnant with your sister's soul," he smiled and I led him back to the group.
"What's wrong, Nico? You look like you've seen... You probably have seen a ghost," Percy paused his train of thought.
"Yeah. I have. Congratulations in advanced, Annabeth," we united with the rest of the camp and celebrated.
"What did you mean earlier?" Annabeth asked when she got Nico away from the party.
"You're pregnant and the soul is Bianca's. You got sick on the way here," I walked up to them and she looked at me in shock.
"She's right. We can sense life and death being Hades' kids."
"There is another one?" I nodded.
"I've been in a coma for a while  in the Hades cabin," Annabeth nodded and went to find Percy.
"Thanks. She caught me off guard. Her pregnancy hormones made her normal self seem tame," he shuttered and I went into the forest.
"Y/N? Where are you?"
"Right beside you," C/N jumped and I grinned. "Looks like you've seen a ghost," I teased and  I led him to a small clearing. "Why were you looking for me?"
"Nico came back with Annabeth and you vanished. I was worried about you," I shook my head.
"I'm fine. We should go back," I took his hand and shadow traveled to the main circle of cabins. We went our separate ways and I went to sleep.

The Tartarus dreams were back. Trapped inside of the rock and dirt. I remember when Nico would come back and recite his time there and then Percy's and Annabeth's journey. I thought my experiences would leave me but I was wrong.
The whip slashed down on me and I was helpless. I had just escaped the casino and I was making my way to camp.
The earth split and I fell straight to Tartarus. The horrors I witnessed, especially as a young child. I screamed and writhed away, trying to escape the torture. Something held my arms down and a soft voice whispered in my ear.
I waited, still feeling the lashings but the pain subsiding. I opened my eyes and saw a figure hovering over me.
"Your okay. I'm here."
"C/N?" I croaked and looked around.
"Drink this. You'll feel better," his hand tucked a stray piece of hair from my face. I drank the liquid and sat up. "Why did you shadow travel here in the middle of the night?" I shrugged.
"Tartarus dreams. Nothing major," he frowned.
"You don't have to tell me what happened there but I know it's horrible there. Nico, Percy, and Annabeth all still have nightmares. They talk about it sometimes and you don't have to fake that it's not that big of a deal.  I'll be here for you, no matter what," he sat beside me and enveloped me in a hug.
   I hugged him back and the door opened. I panicked slightly and saw Percy standing there. I blinked and saw we were in the Hades cabin. I calmed down and C/N looked down at me.
"Was that shadow traveling?" I nodded.
"Instinct but yeah," I sensed someone running towards the cabin and I tensed.
"Y/N," Nico ran into the cabin and launched himself at me.
"When were children of Hades emotional."
"When Percy runs up to you and says she's gone."
"I accidentally shadow traveled when Percy came by. Can you get your boyfriend off of me?" I saw a flash blond and Will pulled Nico away from me.
"I'm sorry you scared me," Nico said and rounded on C/N. "The only reason a child of Hades shadow travels to someone, especially under these circumstances, they trust that person a lot. If you hurt her..." He growled and I glared at my brother. I put my arm across him.
"Don't," all of them stared at me and I looked down. I had dark fur over my body and I tumbled off the bed. C/N caught me and set me back down. His hand lingered on my side.
"I've never seen a shape-shifting child of... anyone really. Except Frank," Will stepped forward.
"Most demigods can't shape-shift but they do when they have strong emotions. Because of our parents ability to, we can too but not often. The only way to make her return to normal is by calming her down at a constant rate. Me and Nico are going to leave," Nico tried to argue but Will led him away.
I crouched and my ears laid flat. C/N put my side and scooted closer to me. His hand paused and I looked up. I looked at myself again and I had grown. I stepped off the bed and turned into a bear. I thought about being human and changed back to my human self.
   I grinned and opened the door. I turned into a horse and reached across camp with my powers. I finally found the son of Poseidon walking to the training arena and I sped off. I finally spotted him and ran around him, heading for the mess hall. I jumped into a nearby shadow and imagined the Hades table. I sat as a wolf in front of him and I heard C/N running towards us. I returned human and took a grape off of Nico's plate.
"What?" Percy ran up and C/N sat beside me. He pulled me into his arms and I smiled.
"Is there a new horse in camp I didn't know about?" I detached from C/N and stood in front of Percy.
"Nope. Just a camper," I shifted and Percy looked shocked.
"What do mean... oh. Hey Y/N," I shifted back and waved at Annabeth. I sat down and we ate together.

Interesting idea. I hope you guys enjoyed it!
