I cried into his shirt as he laid his head on top on mine. Today was the anniversary 'he' disappeared. I did tell him my long ago story. The memories came flooding back.
I watched as my little brother ran around the hotel lobby with his oversize aviator jacket and skeleton lunchbox. I laughed as Bianca, my twin, and I chased him. Nico was fast though.
"PERICE,NICO,BIANCA stop running around you could fall!" My mother hollerd from across the lobby. "Sowwy Mommy." Bianca and I said at the same time, we both still had lisps. Nico just laughed and hugged her leg.
Mom sighed, picked Nico up and said "Go sit down at the table bambinis." My mother Maria was the nicest person you could ever meet. She did raise her voice but who wouldn't when you had two A.D.H.D Twins and 1 A.D.H.D 3 year old boy.
We then heard our mom start to speak. ''Hello Hades." I heard my mom say. At the word Hades all of our ears perked up. I was the first to sprint off the chair. ''DADDY!" I squealed in delight.
He laughed and picked myself,Bianca, and Nico up and kissed our foreheads. "come sei stato bambinos?'' Daddy asked.
We all spoke fluent English and Italian.
"Siamo stati bene." we all replied. He set us down and turned to my mother. "Maria I have an offer for you and the kids." Father said. My mother sighed and said "Hades, we already talked about it. Persephone wouldn't like it. Zeus would find out about the kids" I turned towards my little brother and saw he was shivering, there was a slight breeze coming in. I took off my huge black hoodie that said 'My Daddy Rules!' and handed to Nico. He rook off his aviator Jacket the was too small for me and handed it to me.
"Nics take my hoodie." i said. "But you will get cold. Wake mine" he replied having also inherited the lisp. I took it and held onto it.
I then turned to Bianca and said "Do you want to play explorer?" But before she could reply thunder shook the building. Nico whimpered, All three of us hated storms. I picked Nico up in my arks and hugged him. "No,no,no,no,no this can't happening." My father muttered. "Maria, I love you. Go take the kids and hide okay. I love you guys also Bianca,Nico,Perice. Stay safe" He said. My mother picked up Bianca and before she could pick me up lighting flashed through the building leaving a hole and striking Bianca and Mother killing them instantly.
We stared at the bodies in utter shock until my father hollered at the sky.
"NO!NO!NO! I WILL KILL YOU ZEUS!" ."Mommy? Bi?" I asked. I was in so much shock and so was Nico because next thing we knew we were bawling. Daddy seemed to notice because he ran right over to us and picked us up. He also grabbed two pictures from my mothers wallet of our entire family (Nico,Me,Dad,Mom, and Bianca) and handed each of us one. Nico put his inside hid lunchbox. He then said a prayer and they sunk into the ground. "Nico,Perice don't cry you may still visit them." Dad said. "Davvero!" Nico and I yelled excited the we could still see our beloved sister and brother."Yes, my children really. But it isn't safe here. You guys are going to be away from Myself and them for a while but you will eventually see them. Okay?" Dad asked. "sì." we both said sadly. We would both miss and sister. He then stepped into a Shadow and were teleported to a big building. "Daddy whats this?" I asked. He sighed plucked Nico and I up and said, " You guys will stay here till you get older or run away. You will get a new mommy and daddy. But you will see me again okay?"
"Sì." I replied. He reminded us that he loved us and then left. My memory's fast forward and it came to when Nico was adopted 2 months later. I saw year old me Screaming at them to stop and Nico was doing the same. "I will find you again!" I promised Nico and with that I snapped out of it.
"Perice are you okay?" My Boyfriend Thad asked. He knew the reason I had confessed to him and surprisingly he had a sister named Jasmine that was missing. She showed up to camp last year with her boyfriend a Cherokke boy named Peter and A latin elf named Leo. Before i could reply there was an explosin and screaming.
Thad and I ran out to see what it was. A boy with silk like black hair was running away from the minotaur. Of course our stupid sea spawn of a cousin defeated it. Thomas was a show-off. Once the boy got to Chiron I saw him perfectly Onyx colored eyes like mine, Black silky hair like mine, Pale like me, and then is when i saw his mouth. I pictured the lop-sided grin with two front teeth missing and the lunch box. I then looked at the hoodie i gasped and almost fell but Thad caught me. "Perice whats wrong?!" He asked with fear in his voice. I stood up and mummbled nothing and smiled at him. Then the 'boy' walked up to Chiron. "Whats your name boy?" He asked.
" Nico Di Angelo" he replied and I nearly fainted.
