A.N So I decided to try a new fanfic with Nico as the main character. So, by gracious, I hope you all find it awesome as I thought it was in my head. Enjoy and review!

Chapter 1: "So I look in your direction,

But you pay me no attention, do you?"

~Shiver by Coldplay

Music

You ever get one of those feelings where you think everything has to go your way today?

Well, that's how I felt this morning…

Boy, was I wrong.

"Hey guys, look its Music," Our football jock, Luke, said pushing me against a locker. "Sing me a song, Music?"

I could smell alcohol on his breath, as he pressed more against me, trying to grab my ass.

"I'll sing you a song" I heard a voice say, "It's called 'get the fuck off my friend before I stab you in the neck'"

Luke got off me and turned to see my best friend Lyric (we are of no relation) standing there.

"That's an awful long title for a song" Luke said, with a slur in his voice.

"It's country," Lyric said in a scowl

"Your awfully tiny to be speaking in such a big tone."

"Your awfully stupid to try to rape someone in the middle of a hallway" Lyric said, then she kneed him in the groin.

He hunched over in pain, I grabbed her hand and we ran out the building, laughing.

"Are you ok, Muse?" She asked in a soft tone.

"Yea, Luke is just an idiot…" I said

"You should report him if he keeps harassing you."

"Oh yeah, your from the big city I should explain this to you. This is Texas" I motioned the space around me. "We are in high school, and he's our beloved quarterback. I'll be lucky if I report him and they don't throw me in jail"

"Well if this were New York, and a guy comes up to you the way Luke does, you knee him in the groin as many times you need to. And by the end he should need testicular surgery."

"Thanks for trying to solve my problems by kneeing people in the crotch, Lyric" I laughed, heading up the stairs to my apartment.

"Hey don't mention it, I just worry about you that's all" She said, "I'll see you tomorrow, Muse" She said walking away.

"Later" I didn't bother asking if she wanted to stay over because she always says no, says her mom's very strict so I've been told…

"MUSICAL!" I heard before being tackled by my little sister, Brooke.

"Hey, Brooky where's mom?"

"She's cooking upstairs,"

I walked upstairs and saw my mom making cupcakes in the kitchen.

"Wow, you're a regular southern belle" I scoffed.

"Ha ha ha, Shut up" My mom said sarcastically. I tried to steal a cupcake but she swatted my hand.

"These are for the bake sale, Greedy Gut."

"But I'm hungry…" I said giving her my best puppy dogface.

"I could make you some vegetables if you want?" my mom said with a raised eyebrow.

"Well, will you look at that? I'm not hungry anymore. Big lunch you know?" I said, my mom laughing loudly.

"Be a doll and check the mail for me?" she said handing me the key,

"Will do mom" I kissed her on the cheek and reached around her to grab a cupcake.

"What am I going to do with you?" she laughed.

I walked outside; it was as cold as a Siamese cat being chased by an ice truck. I should really back off the southern similes… I told myself.

I walked to the mailbox but stopped by the alleyway. I swear I saw someone but when I looked back no one was there it was as if it was a shadow… I shook the shiver that went up my back and walked back inside.

Something wasn't right, not today…

Nico

"Sup, Angel face," Lyric said, grabbing my cheeks.

"Quit it! God, don't you have your boyfriend's face to suck?"

"He's not my boyfriend, not yet a least, and if I'll be sucking anything it wont be his face," she said laughing; I looked at her in disgust.

"I could've lived without that mental image"

"I'm just joking, di Angelo. I'm not a slut"

"Yes, you are." I said, looking back to Music.

"We're supposed to be tailing and protecting her, not stalking her."

"You're the one who decided to become friends with the objective so don't judge my methods."

"Hey, I'm her friend because she's really cool, And because she doesn't just need protection from the Corpses but from mortals, too. She would've gotten raped if it weren't for me"

"What?!" I almost screamed.

"Shut up, will you? She'll hear us. Yea, that Luke guy almost got her but I kneed him in the groin"

"Which is your solution to everything."

"Everything that has a penis, yes. Oh, I'm sorry I didn't tell you forgot you were in love with her."

"Shut up, I'm not in love with her she's just… miraculous"

"She also doesn't know who you are."

"She will know soon enough." I said with determination.

"Do you really think you like her or her ability?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, over the past few days I came up with a possibility, she may be irresistible"

"Meaning?"

"You've seen her. Everything she does gives off something that guys love. For you it's her spiritual side, you see she can do nothing wrong. And that dickhead Luke, thinks she has the 'Wounded deer' appeal, he sees that she couldn't harm and that she's too vulnerable to fend him off… we should report this to Chiron, she could be a big help."

"How so?"

"Will you stop staring at her for one second?" she hit me upside to head. "If she makes people stop and turn wherever she goes, imagine putting her on the battlefield…"

"Your right, we have to tell Chiron. We have to get to her before the Corporation"

"That's what I've been saying the whol—DUCK!" She tugged my arm down sending me into a crouch. I saw Music look down the alleyway we were talking in; she tilted her head in confusion and walked off.

"I swear we need to do this soon, or your going to break our cover, at least be inconspicuous when your staring at her" Lyric said in a harsh whisper.

"Shut up!" I said back, grabbing her hand and letting the shadows devour us.
