No. His mind screamed to get down there and help. Why isn't anyone else helping him!? He couldn't help; he was chained to his chair.
"NICO!!" Will screamed out. "SOMEONE HELP HIM."
"Why should we?" Asks one person.
"HE'S IN PAIN!! HELP HIM!" Will struggled more.
"So?"
Screams of anguish were released from Nico's mouth as another dagger impales his arm. "Will..." He cries, looking around like he's blind for his Will.
Nico was loosing blood fast. "You deserve this you monster." Says one mortal. "You're a demon, with your shadows and death magic."
"Will!"
Tears stream down both boy's faces. Nico's pulse slows. Will watches struggling as hard as he can. "NICO!"
A knife is plunged into Nico's heart. "Will..." he coughs up blood.
Will escapes his chains and runs up to Nico, tears on his face. "Nico..." He gathers the body in his arms and runs. Tears on his face. He can't let those monsters have the body. Nico deserves at least a proper burial.
He kisses Nico's forehead sadly. "I'm so sorry Sunshine."

Nico's ghost watches as Will runs and hears his whisper. "Sunshine was always your nickname, not mine."
