Chapter 2: My life

Nico POV:

It's been eight year's since the accident since that faithful day my Big sister died in a police chase when she was twelve, I was ten and Hazel was eight and still to this day I am reminded of it seeing all thoughts family's being happy and not a care in the world we'll I have to leave with the fact that I could have saved her but I couldn't. Hazel try's to cheer me up and it does work sometimes but, not all the time, but after her death I change I started wearing black and Skelton on it and I started being rude to people and getting thing done so I can be with my only sister longer which she doesn't mind. To say the least this really actually started nine years ago.

Nine years ago my mother took me, Hazel and Bianca to the park to play, our dad died in a fire two years back. We were just playing but then this maniac came out of no were and started to point a gun at us and demanded all of our money but our mom wouldn't do it, but the guy ask again and she said no again so that's when he shoot her we all screamed for our mother but before we knew it the guy ran off to god knows were and we were left with our mother dying slowly. Before she died she just told us to be happy and leave the life we wanted. Bianca always wanted to be a teacher and find someone that would care for her and live a long happy life, Hazel just wants to find love but then again she was eight and she also wanted to be a horse rider , as for me I just….I just want to find someone that would truly understand me and would do anything for me (if you tell anyone I will find and kill you) also I wanted to be a cop or at least something close to that but that changed on that day.

The medic toke our mom to the hospital and the police looked around, when we got there they said they tried to save her, they tried! But they didn't save her and she died on that day and to make madders worst they police didn't find the guy and they just gave up finding our mothers Killer and…..and I hated cops from that day on. We stayed with a friend of our mom May Castilian and her son Luke, we were friend and we still are even if he's….. Died. He died the same day, time, and place as my sister they were partnered up for a job with a guy named Octavius and died because of the stupid police, but before I get to that I will say that the three of us plus Luke ran off and a guy named Kronos Turn took us in and to repay him we had to do jobs, since me and Hazel were the youngest we pretty much had to take and deliver packages for and to him and as for my sister and Luke they were older so they had other things to do more important things. We were all supposed to meet back at the base but then Octavius came back hurt and badly saying that the cops were on their tails and then when they thought they were in the clear but then the police found them and chase them but then they got separated last thing he knew was that he heard shooting and he came back hear not knowing if there alive. We went to go find them but we never did we were about to give up when we saw blood spatters in an ally and tier tracks and it was most likely there's and that's what broke me.

I started to do things on my own I started wearing black and I kind of stooled a bomber jacket and Hazel is still the same but she is a little angry at cops but I wouldn't blame her I completely hate cops. My thoughts were interrupted by my sister Hazel taping my shoulder "What is it Hazel?" I ask "You have a message from the boss" she said giving me a package and a note "good luck I have my own to deliver" she said before walking away. The note said 'Andare al vicolo al 66 di avenue e lasciare che IO ottenere ciò di cui ho bisogno in un'altra persona più tardi 'translated it says 'Go to the alley at 66 avenue and leave it there I will get what I need from the other person later' so I went to the sight to go drop the package.

It took an hour to get there by walking but every time I walk around I always see police and I always see family's being all happy and not a care in the world. That just pissed me off knowing that all those people get happy lives but I get a miserable life but hay that the cruelty of it. As I finish dropping off the package I walk away but I hid because I saw the police surrounding an alley I manage to get closer to hear what was going on, but then I hear someone yelling "WHAT!" I was a little worried to get closer seeing that it was the NYPD so I was guessing that it was a murder scene but of which murder I don't know and I really don't care. I was too busy in my thoughts that I didn't realize that one of them was looking at me so I ran off and by the looks of it he wasn't going to fallow me so I stop next to the bus stop and continue to walk back to the base . By the time I got back Hazel and Octavian were there arguing again, "I'm just saying why do you have to be such a buzz kill why can't I go?" Hazel ask "Because you're too young" Octavius said to her and she just signed angrily "So let me get this straight I'm old enough to deliver packages by myself but I'm not old enough to go out and just walk by myself?" Hazel asked "Yes" was all Octavius said "Really just REALLY!" Hazel yelled before looking at my direction "O hey Nico how was your delivery?" she ask more normal "It was alright can't really complain you know" I said and she nodded. I looked at Octavius "hey do you know what the NYPD was doing close to my drop point?" I ask and he shook his head "NO but I do know who's working it" he said taking pictures out and putting them on the table "The boy Blondie is Jason Grace one of their best and his Partner is Frank Zhang he's-" "Cute" Hazel said taking the picture from Octavius "No he's supposed to be one of the skeptical one, then there's Clarisse La Rue the tuff one she do almost anything to get the answer and her Partner is Thalia Grace" "Jason and Thalia are siblings?" I ask and he nodded "Yes but Thalia plays hard ball all I know is there both Married to whom I do not know" he told us and we nodded "Then here's the Autopsy guy Chris Rodrigues he's dating Clarisse, he's smart but from what I gathered he's also a goof ball" he told us before getting to the last two "Then there's Annabeth Chase one of the best plus her partner but unlike Frank she actually observes conclude some say she's a true genius and her Partner is Perseus or Percy Jackson" he said and I looked at the picture and realized it was the guy that saw me but looking at him a little close he was actually pretty hot, um I mean for a cop "Now he's a different story he relies on his intuition and his heart he doesn't think before doing something But that's what make them the best team on the force, I'm afraid that's all I know that's actually working on the case everyone else wasn't there or they just don't work it" He said finishing it off "So we have to avoid them?" Hazel asked and Octavius nodded "Yes the boss just what's you to do your jobs" after he said that his phone began to ring and he left to answer it.

After he left hazel said something "I Really don't like him" she stated "who does Hazel but, he's our boss considering he's been here longer so we have no chose" I told her and she nodded "Your right…. But doesn't mean I have to like it" she said before sitting down. That's when Octavius came back and grabbed his stuff "Job?" I ask and he nodded "Yes the boss has a job for me so I have to go so I have no clue when I'll be back so….see yah" he said then leaving. We sat there for a few minutes before "I'm bored" Hazel said and I had to agree it was kind of boring then I thought of something "Hey why don't we go see mom?" I ask and Hazel immediately nodded "Yah we haven't visited her in like forever" Hazel said before getting her stuff to leave and then we left.

After Walking for about an hour we made it to the cemetery and went to mom's tom stone were it said:

Here Lies

Maria Di Angelo

1973-2007

A beloved mother and a friend to all she will forever be remembered

Hazel and I barley have time to visit with all the jobs we have so it was nice. We wished that we could visit Bianca but since we could never find her body we could never bare her but we always talk to a memory of we build her in hopes that will see her again even if it is unlikely. After a while we left and walked back to the base. While walking back we saw police cars going in the direction we just came from "what do you think that's about?" Hazel ask and I shrugged "I don't know and I don't care" I said starting to walk and Hazel came right behind me. When we got back Octavius was there with a bag of McDonald's on the table "There's dinner you two" he said and we just grabbed it "if you two need me I'm going to bed I had an eventful mission" he said before going to his room. As we finished eating Hazel ask me something "Hey Nico do you think Octavius and the boss have a thing?" Hazel asked which almost cost me to spit out my drink "Why on earth would you ask that?" I asked managing not to shout "Well it's because sometimes when the boss comes over and sends us out I sometimes come back early and hear weird sounds from Octavius room" he said looking like she was becoming a little nervous "What weird sounds?" I ask "Moaning, asking to go faster and hard-" "Ok I got it" I said not wanting to hear any more of this "Well that's what I hear" she said finishing her drink. Before we went to bed I asked "Hey Hazel can I ask you something?" I ask and she nodded "Sure what is?" She asked "What did you mean when you said that, that Frank guy was cute?" I just had to ask "Um exactly what it means" she said laughing a little bit "Yah but he's… He's a cop" I clamed "I know and I know how you feel ever since they didn't do anything for mom or that they killed Bianca and Luke but I remembered something" she said smiling at me "And what's that?" I asked "What mom said before she died, for us to be happy and to live the life we've always wanted and for that to happen I… I need to let go of the anger I had for the police" she said before going into her room and I did the same.

When I got into bed I started to think about that what Hazel said about that, I mean I'm still made but doesn't mean Hazel is and if she is falling for some guy that is a cop I guess I can't really talk her out of it she's stubborn like me so I should be happy that she actually like someone, even if he is a cop, I sighed "Well at least I'm not in love" right when I said that the image of Percy Jackson came into my mind. I started to panic "No I cannot be falling for a guy I only saw once and in a picture, can I?" I ask myself but then my heart started to hurt just thinking about him and that's when I realized that I Nico Di Angelo the one the HATES cops is…..is in love with one.
