“Okay… I WAS FUCKING RIGHT???” Leo had walked over to Nico and began to shake him.
“What?” Nico was confused now.
“He accused Archie of the power outage because he was tired of being accused of it himself because he claims he’s innocent.” Will explained.
“Oh… yeah you were right but with the wrong evidence.” Nico nodded and pried Leo off him, which was very difficult for him to do.
“HA! It wasn’t me!” Leo slammed his hands on the counter behind Nico and beside me, “So it was you!” He pointed at me.
And I just shrugged… I didn't know… did I cause it? My brain was all static and I didn’t know myself…
“Why did you do that… you caused the power to go out!” Leo accused me.
“Leo, back away from Archie, you’re very clearly scaring them.” Will pulled Leo away and back away.
“Okay, but why did they shrug? Why did you shrug Archie?” Leo questioned.
Nico looked at me and sighed, “You yourself don’t even know, do you?” Nico questioned.
I paused, and nodded slowly. Cause… I don’t know! Why are they blaming me? Did I do it? Did I cause the power outage?
“Okay… how are we going to get the power back on?” Clarease asked, and then turned to Nico.
“How should I know?” Nico was also very confused.
“Because you were the one who suspected it in the first place and might be right.” Clarease answered.
“Yeah, well I can tell based off of certain things what someone might be or what they could have done. I do not know how to turn the power back on.” Nico then turned to me, “And I doubt they do either… someone go get Chiron…”
“I’ll go get him.” A champer whose name I didn’t remember… or maybe they just weren’t important to the plot and so their name was never mentioned, left and came back a few minutes later.
He walked back in and Chiron followed too.
“Alright, so I got a partial explanation from Piper about what happened.” Chiron started, then turned to me.
That’s Piper? Riiiight… I did kinda forget about her due to the fact I wasn’t a huge fan when the stories stopped following Percy as a main POV. I kinda forgot about her, and only really knew Leo because he was a child of Hephaestus and Hephaestus was one of my favorite gods because he was like… an outcast and I really related to him with that.
“Okay, so can someone finish explaining what happened?” Chiron asked.
Everyone pointed to Nico.
