[He'd disappeared for the entirety of January and the only person he really spoke with was Nico. He and the son of Hades had spent the large portion of the month training and training and training for Hiro to get caught up to speed with the task the Black Shuck assigned them to put the dead to rest. He and Nico traveled a little bit in between training for Nico to do his thing and continue working the task, but they had finally reached the conclusion that Hiro needed to learn on his own.
The best place to research, or so Hiro thought, was Redgate. With that in mind, he thought about the small family he'd created for himself and a pang of guilt hit him again. Jason was still mad and the knife communicator was broken. He didn't know how to approach Loki by himself.
So...Billy was a good option. He liked Billy, and more importantly he trusted Billy. (And more importantly, if things with Loki got out of hand Billy could help.) Besides, Billy seemed like the type who'd appreciate Redgate, too.
A quick call was made to Billy and Nico shadowtraveled him to where Billy was. They were careful to not be seen and Hiro made the other boy promise to meet him in Redgate later to continue the task. If Nico backed out and ditched him, he'd be thoroughly pissed. With that set in stone he moved forward with his backpack and approached the meeting place he'd told Billy about, grinning slightly as he settled on "casual" and not "I've been learning to fight the dead with a boy I am risking a lot of shit for."]
Probably should have planned this sooner, but you're always up for an adventure, right?
