AN: I just want to say i don't own Percy Jackson o Maximum Ride (though i wish I did). Hope you enjoy.

They were the same person just with different names, different lives and different families. But their lives were similar, too similar.

Both were young boys who only wanted to make their father proud.

Both were young boys who were different ages to how they looked.

Both were young boys with special abilities.

Both were young boys whose sister's abandoned them.

And both were young boys who died protecting something they could never have.

It started with the first boy, a young hyper kid named Nico, Nico Di Angelo.

He was born in the 1930s and got trapped in time with his sister near the end of world war two.

His sister Bianaca Di Angelo, his mother Maria Di Angelo and his father Hades Greek god of the underworld.

When they finally were free from the time trap, they were entered into a new world, a world were monsters hunted him.

But as soon as they entered this world his sister abandoned him in favour of the hunt.

He asked a person he looked up to, Percy Jackson, to protect her.

And he failed, she died then chose rebirth abandoning him again.

So he ran, now all he wanted was his love, he wanted Percy Jackson to love him, but of course not, he was in love with that Annie girl.

But he still protected him, searched for him when he was taken, promised to help then escape Tartarus.

Told Bob that he was a good friend, when really he was just trying to convince himself.

But it still came to nothing, he died a year after the Giant war, saving Percy from a hidden emposai.

He was only fifteen.

So he died and like his sister chose to be reborn as another little boy.

This time his name was Ari.

His father was a scientist, he didn't know his mother.

He had a sister Maximum Ride, the name she gave herself.

She always had their fathers love even if she didn't know he was their father.

When her flock and her escaped they left him behind.

So his dad made him like them but instead of an Avian-American he became an Eraser.

One of the bad guys.

He found his sister and they fought.

She killed him.

Their father brought him back to life, only to be used again.

His death date was coming, so he became a good guy.

But he died again, protecting his sister, who never cared.

He was only seven.

He was never the hero, just a bad guy or one of many victims.

He never tried again, but he got Esylium.

Both times.

He met Max when she died and she apologised.

They still talk to each other, she lives in a house down thethe road.

He has good friends Luke Castalian and Ethan Nakumara.

Trailers who turned good in the end like him.

They told him about his old life, he remembers Nico, him, now.

After everything he is happy.

He is not the odd one out anymore.

He fits in.

He has friends.

Yes, he's a hero, he's a good boy.
