Will walked straight in to Angel's base without any backup or even a plan.
He saw Nico, standing facing the other way, singing a song softly in... Italian? Apparently, either he didn't hear Will, or he just decided not to care. Will hoped it was the first choice, as there was no way he could outrun the younger boy.
Will wrapped his arms around Nico, he wouldn't be able to hold on tight enough without all his muscles. So matter how shrimpy this kid was, he still had a surprising amount of strength.
"Percy. I don't like physical contact," Will realized that Nico's eyes were squeezed shut. He leaned down, and whispered in Nico's ear,
"Not Percy."
Nico's eyes flew open and he whirled around as fast as he could, but it was too late. Will had all ready managed to get the cuffs on Nico without his noticing. The previously thought, 'Angel' glared at him and then grinned like a maniac. He laughed wildly and spun around again, 360 degrees. Will lost his grip on the cuffs, and nearly got whacked in the head as Nico raised his arms in attack. Thankfully, he ducked in time, but Nico swept his feet off the ground.
Nico ran to the nearest wall. Will was in too much shock o react. Nico turned one last time, and winked, still grinning, before melting into the shadows.
Once the FBI, Will explained to them what happened. Not a moment more than when they reached headquarters, than another building exploded. The note this time read:
This is my last attack. You will find all the money I stole
buried under the remains of the building. I just wanted
to let you know, that you were the fastest on to figure
out it was me. It took all the others many months, some
times years to decide it was me. It took you little over a
month. So, um, good job... I guess... Have a nice life.
I actually liked you this time... that's a first...
-Angel
Angel was true to his word. the found all the money that had been 'stolen' buried under the craters, along with enough extra to rebuild everything.
Will found himself missing the notes from Angel, or Nico. He was also curious about how Angel called him the fastest. He looked into it, and apparently, dozens of other countries had attacks exactly like the ones the USA experiences. They had all discovered who it was, but were marked as INCOMPLETE because the perpetrator evaded the police multiple times until they just gave up.
They had a picture in each of the files, and sure enough it was Nico.
