Nico     (3rd PoV.)

There,lying in a alley lay Nico.The Boy stirred,his finger twitching and his eyes slowly opened,glazed over and not looking at anything in particular.After a while he pushed himself up to sit,groaning he sat on his knees while his hands supporter his weight up front.He looks around,frowning as he doesn't recognize the area at all.Unsteady on his feet he stands up,feeling the weight of his backpack easing his mind that he at least hasn't been robbed or lost anything.And with another sigh he starts for the exit of the alley.Supporting his weight on the wall he peeks out,it seems to be a neighborhood,the air is dark and it feels like a thin green fog covers the whole place,the lights gave off an looming athmosphere.Shurgging,used to dark and uneasy Tensions he took off down the road,unsure what he's looking for.

Nico     (1st PoV.)

I walk down the road,gripping the straps of the backpack tightly,looking around didn't give me much information so I kept walking.Turning left at a cross street and walking further I enter a busier part,a few stores were at the sides and people and cars at least went past and forth me.A while of walking later and arriving in a park I decide to call it a moment,picking out a tree and sitting under it leaning my head on the trunk I close my eyes.My silent resting interrupted by a commotion in another  alley close by.I do not want to deal with this,I thought as I sigh,curiosity stronger then my want for rest as I stand up and creep over to the alley to peek in.It looks like drug dealers having a heated argument about the payment,rolling my eyes I decide it's not worth my time,and just as I turn around a dark figure falls down the roof into the middle of the two arguing shadows.But the moment I faced the alley again the action was already over.A tall man stood there,the other two on the ground.Frowning I take in his details.He looked muscular,wearing a dark suit with a hood,and it had...cat ears? He turned around,a mask covering his face preventing me from seeing his eyes,a black mask with white eyes staring right at me.Unintentionally I shivered slightly.Thats my call to leave. And I did,I turn around and walk away,in the opposite direction of the park,no idea why I just did.

Batman  (1st PoV.)  (Something new yay!)

Turning around I look into the eyes of a boy that looks no older then fifteen at most.Hes staring right back at me,seeing him shiver and turn around I wonder, Okay? It's weird,Yes Gotham has that trait but a kid out at night and just leaving after looking straight at me is another level.And I believed myself to know the people that lived here,but I never saw him before,is he new perhaps? Shrugging I let it past and make my way back to the mansion. (3rd PoV. Change)

Arriving at the mansion the man proceeded to take off his suit and shower,changing into another suit,a normal one this time."Boys!Dinner!" Was heard,four boys after one each other came into the room and sitting down in their respective chairs.Dinner went by as always,chaotic and with yelling between the boys and more then necessary flying fries.The man sighed,still thinking about the kid from earlier,it intrigued him to find out more about him,the need to know as much about everything and everyone disrupting his dinner,with a annoyed sigh he excused himself from the dinner,bringing his plate into the kitchen and entering his study,settling down in the chair and browsing the computer for information on the boy.Unsuprisingly he didn't find any,leaning back in his chair with crossed arms he huffed annoyed. Determined to find out more he went to sleep after changing once again.And so the night went by peacefully for the people in the mansion.

Nico   (3rd PoV and 1st PoV changing.)

That man is no one to mess with is what I decide after finding a bench to crash on for the night.I lay on my back and stare up at the cloudy and foggy sky.Why here of all places...Is what went through the boys mind before his eyes close and his mind slips into uncounsiousness. Light drizzle woke him in the morning.And with aching limbs he sat up and lost no time getting up,stretching and continuing walking,maybe getting something to eat on the way and figuring out how he wanted to do this,he was too young to get a job,obviously.So he had no income,means no house or apartment,food or other necessary items.Though his father is hades so getting some money or valuable gems shouldn't be too hard.But it would be suspicious if a fifteen year old always had valuable gems on him.And people would probably ask him about his parents,which he wouldn't be able to answer. Groaning and ruffling his hair Nico walked on,the situation too complicated for him as he didn't want to put up with the things he would have to take into deep thinking to make it work.Deciding on just going to an orphanage would work for now,he set off to find someone to ask,a woman and her toddler caught my attention.I walk over to them. "Excuse me miss?" She hums and turns to look at me. "Can I help you sweetie?" She said in a soft tone."Ah yes,I got lost kind off,and I wanted to ask you if you could maybe give me directions to the nearest orphanage?" I ask politely,her smile fell a bit but she gave me directions.I thank her with a smile and set off in the direction.A long while of walking and passing a man that looked to be thirty and above who looked at me with wide eyes till I rounded a corner and I saw a building with the sign That read orphanage.By the time I actually arrived there it was dark again.Sighing the boy enters,a woman looks up from a desk and looks at him.Frownign she rounds the desk and stands infront of Nico.     "Are you lost?" I shake my head. "I don't have parents and I don't have somewhere to go either...so I thought I'd come here." She looked bewildered and raised an eyebrow. "Well,we could give you maybe a night or two,but unregistered be really can't just take in kids." She said scratching her neck.I nod."I get that,I was just wondering if I could take those two nights maybe?" "Well," she sighs. "How about we go to an office in here,I'll just have you sign those to have paperwork agreeing to you staying here for two nights and all,and from then we can figure things out tomorrow?" I nod gratefully,following her into a room and discussing the stuff that needed to be. "Alright,then just sign here and you can go get some rest." She said pointing to a line at the bottom.I had to fill out my full name,age,birthday,where I lived and parents,though the last two went unanswered and signed it.The woman smiled and leaded me to a room,informing me that I should just sleep for now and tomorrow by breakfast or after we would talk again. Biding her a good night she closes the door and leaves the boy to it.Again wasting no time he got changed and plopped down on the bed,hoping for a good nights rest for once...but that didn't happen when you seem to be cursed with nightmares and Tartarus itself.


Alright,again that's it for now! Same day!So a break for now! (Today at least.) Again I hope you enjoyed it and that's it really.
