Disclaimer: I only own the plot

Hello everyone! enjoy!

"because Nico, you needed a place to stay. I don't judge people on what they can do"

"thanks, so where's my room?" he smiled

"you can have any room you want, that's not taken already that is" I smiled

"ok, I'll go find one" I walked off. roaming around, I went to the third story of the house. at the end of the hall, there was an empty room with a large window. perfect it accommodates all my needs. I put my jacket on the bed to 'claim' it. then I open the window, and jump out of it. flying up, I go and grab a tree. the scenery here is beautiful, everything here is green. I jumped to a taller tree and climbed it. then I jumped off of it. backwards, and fell almost to the ground before catching myself.

"Nico! hey, Rosalie said she wanted to talk to you" Edward called out

"coming!" I flew to him, and landed not a foot from him; "so, where is she?"

"she's in the living room, I think she wants to apologize." I nodded and walked inside. Rosalie was waiting for me

"hey Nico" I nodded in greeting, she sat up a little straighter "I just wanted to apologize for being so rude to you"

"thank you for the apology. and I'm sorry I almost murdered your whole family" she looked scared.

"um, just out of curiosity, would your sword actually hurt me?" I laughed.

"I would demonstrate, but anyone cut by my sword has their soul sucked into it. forever." she looked as if she would faint "are you ok?" she nodded.

"so, Nico. is there anything I can do to make it up to you?" I smiled my crazy smile

"I'll think of something" she probably regretted what she just said "well, I'm going to go back to flying, bye Rosalie"

I left through the back door. I flew over the river, admiring the beauty of it. I wondered what the others were doing. so, I flew back around, and went back in through my window. not bothering to close my wings, I walked down the hall. it felt nice to leave them open. you cant imagine how hard it is to keep them in at all times. imagine tying your hands behind your back, but that you can untie them at any moment, it just means that you will be shunned for who you are. basically, it sucked. I ran to the stairs and fulfilled my wish from earlier, I flew down the stairs. it was great.

"hey Nico, do yo-watch where you're going!" Edward yelled. as I almost ran into him, I knew I wouldn't, but apparently he didn't.

"oh, sorry Edward. do you know where Esme is?"

"she's probably in the dining room. she likes to rearrange the flowers" I flew the rest of the way down the stairs. and stopped at the bottom. I went to the dining room, wings still out, and saw Esme. she was in fact rearranging the flowers.

"hello Esme" she turned and looked slightly startled that my wings were out

"hello dear, is there something you need?"

"um, I was wondering if you knew where I could get some clothes." she smiled

"go ask Alice, she loves clothes" she gave me a warm smile before returning to her flowers

"thanks" I turned and roamed around looking for Alice's room. I found after about 5 minutes of wandering. I knocked on the door

"come in!" I walked in, and saw a bunch of clothes everywhere.

"wow, Esme wasn't kidding when she said you loved clothes." Alice just smiled

"so Nico, what did you want?"

"well, um, I was hoping you could help me get some spare clothes" her eyes lit up "just so you know, I only wear black" she looked a little disappointed, but then she just smiled

"ok! come here" I walked over. "what size do you wear?"

"I wear a small shirt and size 24/30 pants" she grabbed a pair of black jeans, and a dark grey shirt with a black phoenix on it.

"here you go! one outfit down, two to go!" she was way too exited about clothes. she found me another pair of black jeans, and a pair of dark navy. a dark camo shirt and a deep burgundy that was almost grey.

"thank you Alice, you're a life saver" she smiled even bigger "oh, do you have a medium black shirt?" she handed me one. I left her room. I flew back up the stairs, and went to my room. in my room, I took the medium black shirt, and cut holes for my wings in it. then I put it on. I was changing, when someone knocked on my door

"one sec!" I called, tugging on my shirt, then I opened the door, it was Bella

"hey Nico, I was wondering if we could talk?" I invited her in, we sat on the couch, the only piece of furniture other than a small chair

"what did you want Bella?" I asked in a great mood after the clothes

"well, I was, um, wondering." she screwed trying to sound nonchalant "what happened to you?! I saw the scars so don't tell it's nothing" I sighed, this was not a conversation I wanted to have with her.

"Bella, you know how I told you that my dad is Hades?" she nodded "well, basically all the old myths Greek and roman are true. the good and the bad" I looked down. then I stood and took off my shirt again. she gasped, I let her have a good look this time "all of the old monsters are real too. and they think demigods are great snacks" I pointed to a scar that ran from my right shoulder to my left hip "this one is from a chimera" I pointed to another one "drachmae" Bella starting crying. I quickly pulled my shirt back on "why are you crying?" I asked worried

"Nico, you were attacked? w-w-why?! th-that doesn't seem fair?!" I smiled

"hasn't anyone ever told you? life isn't"

"b-but..." I cut her off

"Bella, you saw what I can do. that's not half of what I'm capable of. with great power comes great responsibility, I don't mind. plus killing monsters is fun" she looked scared

"Nico, you cant go around killing Monsters!" I laughed with no humor

"Bella, in my world. it's kill, or be killed." she stopped crying. "hey I have an idea!" she looked up "do you trust me?"
