"Someone...Anyone...Please" I cried out, I didn't think anyone was listening. I heard footsteps coming from the dark street.

I looked around, but saw nobody but the flooded streets with cracked sidewalks, broken street lights flickering off to the side.

I was confused, I didn't know what happened, my parents are dead, something killed them, about a month ago, but I'm not sure what it was.

The...The thing was furry, I think it was a huge black dog—thing.

The footsteps grew closer and I shriveled up into a small ball as someone, a boy, with black hair and unknown eyes stared at me.

He walked over, his clothing disheveled, and crouched down to my eye level, he spoke in a soft tone. "Hello" he said, holding out his hand and placing it on my shoulder "I'm not going to hurt you...I'm Nico Di Angelo, who are you?" He asked.

I sniffles and looked up at him "(Y/F/N)" I replied hesitantly. He nodded, standing up "come on...I'm going to take you somewhere you'll be safe" he said.

Even thought the rain was pouring hard, I started crying, but I wasn't sure he noticed "NO! I don't wanna go to the adoption place...NO!" I cried out.

He shook his head "what are you? A baby?" He growled. I shook my head "I'm five" I told him.

I heard him say "oh" and then he shook his head "I'm not taking you to any adoption place," he said "now come on."

"Carry me" I said. He shook his head "you're five, you can walk" he claimed. I shook my head just as he did "no...My leg, I think I broke it" I told him.

He sighed and grabbed me, hoisting me onto his shoulders "fine, we'll get Will or someone to check that out, let's go" Nico said.

"Leave me alone, you insufferable girl!" Nico hissed. "Don't talk to my sister that way!" Percy said.

I shook my head "Per-cy" I said, trying to say his name correctly, "Nico is just being a grump, he's not that bad" I said, crossing my arms.

I had been to this camp for about a week now, Nico still hasn't warmed up to me, but I think he's just trying to look tough. I'm not sure.

He rolled his eyes as I latched onto his leg "Nico...Can you carry me again?" I asked. Nico shook his head "your leg isn't broken. Leave me alone" he said, kicking me off lightly, making me roll to the ground.

My eyes filled of tears and I tried to glare at him "I'm going to shoot you with bow!" I told him. He chuckled coolly"I'd like to see you try" and then walked away

(A few weeks later)

Tears trailed down my cheeks as I stared out into the water. Why does everyone here hate me...?Except for Percy, but he started getting meaner, saying that I was getting on his nerves.

I was sitting there alone for a few minutes before I felt a hand on my arm, and a soft voice that I recognized saying "hey...It's alright, calm down."

I turned to see Nico. What was he doing here? I thought he hated me. I sniffled and looked away from him. He wouldn't understand, he was 16, he knew nothing about me.

He sat down next to me "what's wrong?" He asked quietly. I looked at him, and grabbed his shirt, pulling myself closer, he just wrapped an arm around me, muttering soft words.

"Why does everyone hate me?" I asked him after about five minutes. He looked at me, confused "hate you? Nobody hates you, Percy doesn't, Annabeth doesn't, I don't" He said.

I shook my head "you hate me...You always did" I claimed. He sighed and ran a hand though his hair "I don't hate you, I just needed some time to get use to you" he explained.

I looked up and him and he looked down at me, kissing my forehead as one would do with a sister. He smiled at me, and I smiled back, he started to pulled away he arm, I grabbed it and pulled it back. "Don't let go."
