Chapter 1: The Incident

|Third Person Pov|

A couple walked down the streets of Manhattan. Hand in hand. They laugh and smiled as they made their way to a home. Not theirs though. They walked up to the door of the house and knocked. After a couple of knocks, a brown haired woman opened the door.

"Hey Sally!"

"Christina! How lovely it is to see you. It's been months. Come in."

They stepped into the house and sat down on the living rooms sofas.

"Sally I'd like you meet someone." She turned the male sitting next to her. "This is my fiance Taiyo. Taiyo Greene. Taiyo this is my step mother Sally Jackson."

"Nice to meet you Taiyo."

"Likewise Ms. Jackson"

"Please call me Sally. Percy should be home soon. Are you staying for dinner?"

"Actually we were hoping to stay for the holidays."

Sally chuckled. "Of course you can stay. Is your brother coming home for the holidays?"

"There is a possibility Triton will be back but I'm not sure. The Navy doesn't just give their officers holidays off."

They all laughed and chatted for a while before heading to the kitchen to start cooking dinner.

"Let me help you Sally. You shouldn't try to do all this by yourself."

Christina began cutting herbs and vegetables as Sally pulled out the pots and pans she needed. Taiyo stood to the side not wanting to interrupted the women's work. An hour later the door opens and someone shouts 'I'm home!'.

"Percy I'm in the kitchen."

A boy about the age of 12 stepped into the kitchen. "Christina?! It's been forever." He ran and gave her a hug.

"Go clean yourself up. Dinner is almost done."

Percy went to his room to put his bag down. He took off his coat and sweater then went to the bathroom to wash his hands. Sea green eyes wandered to the unfamiliar male standing near the kitchen.

"Hello. My name is Taiyo Greene. I'm Christina's fiance."

"Percy Jackson. How come I've never seen you with her before?"

"She tries to hide her friends a lot. Thinks we will embarrass her."

"Oh shut up Tay. I'll show Sally those photos." Christina yelled from the hallway.

"That's not fair!" Taiyo shouted back at Christina.

Percy chuckled at their behavior. He helped his mom set the table. The couple grabbed some drinks and juice for Percy. Everyone sat down to eat. The four exchanged random conversation topics while they ate. Laughter rang throughout the house. Smiles were on everyone's faces. Little did they know disaster was about to strike.

...

Once dinner was cleaned up at put away, the small family went to watch television in the living room. Suddenly the lights flickered.

"What the? They were working fine. What's going on?"

"It's probably a bug or something."

They flickered again.

"Or not. Maybe I should check it out." Taiyo began to stand.

"Oh dear I can ask you to do that. You are a guest. Let me handle it."

"Sally it's alright. Think of this as my thanks for dinner. Now where is your breaker?"

"Out back. Due be careful. It's dark outside."

The green haired male smiled and said he'll be careful. He walk to the back of the house to find the panel. Out of nowhere, a heavy object collided with the back of Taiyo's head. He fell to the floor unconscious. A figure stepped out the shadows. They nodded to their partner and walked into the house. The two unidentified people quietly crept through the home searching for the family.

"Taiyo? What's taking so long?" Christina walked to the back and found her fiance on the floor. "Taiyo?!" She shook him but he didn't wake. She check for a pulsed and released a breath of relief. 'He's still alive. How did he get like this? Wait what's that?' The blue haired woman touch the back of her partners head. "Blood?!" She looked around to see if anyone was there but found no one. The groan interrupted her thoughts.

"Taiyo!" She hugged him tightly.

"Can't breathe."

"Sorry. What happened?"

"I don't know. I was checking the panel when something hit me from behind." His eyes widened. "Chris I think someone's in the house."

They scrambled to the living room. When they got there, a blond male about nineteen had Sally and Percy at gunpoint. The two were hudded together on the floor. Sally held her son in a protective embrace.

Christina growled. "Let them go." Her hand went to her side. Taiyo did the same.

An arm shot forward wrapping around Christina's neck. Turning her head slightly she saw a black haired teen with an eyepatch about seventeen or eighteen point his gun at Taiyo. Before anyone could react, he shot the green haired fiance twice. One in the chest and one to the head. He quickly placed the gun on her temple. "Don't move."

Tears fell down her face as her fiance laid dead beside her. The blond grabbed Percy and dragged him away from his mother. He let out a shriek. Sally was screaming for the blond to stop which got her smacked in the face. The older assailant tied Percy up so that he could help his mother. He proceeded to beat Sally to death in front of her own son. The twelve year old screamed and struggled against his bonds. Christina pushed her captor to the side and jumped the blond. She kicked him in the stomach causing him the fall to his knees. His black haired partner shot her in the right leg and left arm. She quickly applied pressure to her wounds. Sally was so close to death and there was no way to save her. The younger intruder roughed Christina up a bit before leaving her barely conscious. They grabbed the boy and ran out the back but not before leaving a note by the circuit breaker.
