Hazel couldn't believe it she was alive, ALIVE (!)
"So," Nico asked her "How have things been"
"It was very uneventful"
"Ohh"
"And might I ask how things have been for you Mr. Di Angelo"
"They been good" he said studding her
"May I ask, what dear brother do we do know"
"You just did anda people in this time don't talk like us 40's kids. Yuh gota learn how to talk like you're from this time"
"What do you mean by that Mr. Di Angelo, by people from our time?"
"I was also born in the forties, but Bianca and I were placed in this building that stops time for those in it. We were placed there when I was ten; we were however released three years ago."
"Since I assume you must know my past, as we are siblings and I can see a dead man's life simply by looking at him. What might I say is your past?"
"I don't know" He said with a hint of sadness in his voice "We were dropped in the River Lethe"
"I'm very sorry sir"
"All right we gota work on getting you to act and dress more this time." Nico said leading her to the hotel he had rented for the night.
"How do people act in this time?"
"Well for starters they don't say things like sir, or other formalities oh and we call people by their first name: like I call you Hazel and you should call me Nico"
"Is it no disrespect to call another by his first name?"
"Yeah I guess but they do a lot of disrespectful things. People now a day's talk like sailors and don't care about respect. "
"Yes, Mr. Di- Nico" Hazel corrected herself "What should we change first?"
Once they reach the room Nico told Hazel to wait and quickly shadow traveled to Camp Half-Blood.
LINE…
He walked to the Aphrodite cabin
"What do you want?" Drew the new cabin counselor asked
"To borrow some clothes"
"I don't know if we got anything in you size" she laughed "What size you want?"
Nico got the clothing for Hazel: jeans, shirts, and a dress. Then he went to the Apollo cabin.
"Hey Nico" Jessica said "What you doing here?"
"Nothing, just wondering if I could borrow an IPod."
"Sure" she said reaching for the IPod "what might I ask do you need it for"
"School"
"School?"
"Yeah, Persephone's idea on how to get rid of me."
"Oh, here is the IPod" She said
"Thanks" He said
He then headed toward the Hermes cabin. Chris opened the door and the boys talked.
"Hey Chris"
"Sup Di Angelo"
"Not much" he said "Got bored wanted to watch some TV."
"That's nice"
"Can I borrow some movies?"
"Sure, which one"
"Got any chick flicks?"
"Death boy wants chick flicks" Clarisse's voice said. Chris laughed
"Can I just have the movies?" Chris walked inside when he came back out he handed the movies to Nico. He had several movies Mean Girls part 1, The Cinderella story, Bridal Wars, Cinderella, Sleeping beauty, Snow White and a ton of other movies 'every' girl has watched.
"Thanks Chris"
"Yeah, good luck Nico… with all the girly movies" Chris said well Clarisse's laughter filled the room
Nico blushed, they weren't for him, and went back to Hazel.
LINE: Hazels point of view
In the hotel room Hazel found the funniest shaped object it was kind of oval shaped and had all these buttons. Everything was strange had the world really changed that much or was New York just that different from New Orland's and Alaska? 70 years she had been dead over 70 years it was 2011already! She pushed the thought away and picked up the odd object and began pressing buttons suddenly there was a loud noise like laughter and then there was light Hazel jumped back. After a while she resurfaced and looked toward the source it was a Television set but different from the one's back home this one was in color. At the bottom of the screen read the letters MTV? Suddenly appeared a young girl maybe about 18 or 19 she was talking about being a single mother and graduating; that's awful I could positively not believe this lady was getting air time. Then she began talking about her boyfriends and the babies fathers girlfriend, I immediately ran to turn off the television but could not find the buttons.
LINE: Back to Nico's point of view
Nico appeared in the room to find his sister pressing every button on the remote. Currently, the Real Housewives of New Jersey was on and two of the wives were in each other's face arguing. Nico laughed and garbed the remote He changed the channel to Disney's Good Luck Charlie.
"Yeah TV is not what it used to be" Nico said smiling
"Let's get you updated with music all right there are several new genres Pop, Hip hop, rap, punk, and country" Nico said "Here's what you gota know Taylor Swift is all you have to know about country, Beyonce is pop and is married to Jay Z who sings rap, Nickie Minaj, Drake, 50cent and Lil Wayne sings rap, Lady Gaga, don't ask, and Katy Perry sing pop, Also no one likes boy bands or pretty boys like Justine Bieber they just all listen to it."
"If they dislike this man how do you know that they listen to him?"
"First, that sentence was wrong It should be more like If they don't like him why do they listen to him." Nico corrected "And everyone always talks about how much they dislike him but turn around and make him the second richest singer under 30years old."
"All right then" Hazel said
"Know here are the songs" Nico then played the songs
Taylor Swift's Picture to Burn played:
State the obvious
I didn't get my fantasy
I realize you love yourself
More than you could ever love me...
She loved Taylor Swift's songs but the rest…Let's just say it was a good thing she wasn't watching the music videos. Between Beyonce's Rings the Alarm and Nicki Minaj's This Moment for Life and some other not nice songs Hazel decided she did not like pop or rap. It was however during Nicki Minaj's song Right Through Me which she thought was awesome
Know when I'm lying, know when I'm crying
It's like you got it down to a science
Why am I trying, no, you ain't buying
I tried to fight it back with defiance
But like all 2011 rap songs it said a certain word and the look on Hazel's face was one of hoarer.
"DID SHE JUST SAY THE-THAT WORD?" Hazel yelled "ITHOUGHT BY KNOW RACEISM WOULD BE DONE!"
"It is do- well less than before. That's not the point a lot of the African-America singers use that word."
"That's the most horrible thing I have ever heard!"
"Maybe we'll just finish this little lesson later" Nico said let's take the time to go get you acquainted with New York and style"
"Where to first" Hazel asked after changing into jeans and a T-shirt
"To travel New York" Nico shadow traveled them to the center of the Upper East Side
They walked through Grand Central station, Hazel awed, He showed her the malls, she wrinkled her noise at the non lady like clothing choices, they saw the beach, they keep their distance this was Uncle Poseidon's territory, they even got into a fight with a monster and Hazel laughed so hard when Nico yelled Stygian as he attacked pulled out his sword; despite all the fun, Nico made sure to avoid the Empire State building he did not want the gods seeing Hazel. This is what they did for the next two weeks as he prepared to send her with Lupa the person wolf thing all Romans must meet before entering camp, Camp Jupiter.
Poor Hazel well she'll get it kind of.
September, what an interesting month for Mr. Di Angelo.
