Prologue

Percy slammed her door and leapt onto her bed, muffling her scream into the pillow. Her 'stepfather' Gabe Ugliano made her want to punch him all day every day for how he treats her mother and how he treats her. Why did her mother have to marry the guy?!

Ping!

Ping!

Ping!

The notifications sounding from her phone - the one that her mother very reluctantly got for her - drew her from her bed and to where the phone sat on her desk. Looking at the number, she smiled the first smile all day.

It was her penpal, her best friend really. She knew pretty much everything about him except his true name and where he lived in Gotham. And he knew everything about her except her true name and the situation that she had with Gabe. Percy didn't want to worry her friend over something that he couldn't do anything about.

'Hey, Killer!' The first message read. He had started to call her that when she let slip that Killer Whales were her favorite animals. And she called him Sunshine, the very opposite of his very serious personality of twelve year old.

'Haven't heard from you the past couple days.'

'Wanted to make sure everything was okay.'

Percy smiled and typed back. 'Yeah, sorry! Just a lot going on right now. All good here. How are you and Agent A?'

She talked to him all night, her mind now off of Gabe and her bad day.

That's all she would ever need, she knew. A conversation with her Sunshine and she was all set to face the world once more.

Because he was her Sunshine.
