Always You - Nico di Angelo x Reader (Oneshots)

Villain and Violent - Pt. 1

A/N - request by @BlueCookies28 - "yayayay can u do like a villain au? you can go however you want with that"

Since I've made Y/N a villain in one of my previous one shots, I think it's time for Nico to have a turn on the fun :D

Thanks for the idea girlie, enjoy!

P.S. - in this story, you would have a bow and arrow as your weapon.

TW!! There will be gore and angst, proceed with caution.

- Third Person's POV -

Nico and you were the closest friends history would ever know.

Some may call you partners, others would call you two halves, but you knew. You knew there was so, so much more to the relationship you and Nico di Angelo shared.

You met him when the two of you were lone runaways, trying desperately to hide from the pain.

After Percy Jackson's betrayal, you soon grew to have the same hatred for him as Nico did. Though you knew nothing about the son of Poseidon, Nico's heartbreaking stories were enough for you to decide that he was not a good guy.

You will never trust him, a so-called hero.

So when there came an opportunity for you to join Kronos, you immediately jumped at the chance, tugging Nico to your side as you pledged an oath in front of Luke Castellan.

The two of you weren't runaways anymore - you both were part of a family.

Nico was the happiest he has ever been. Yes, he was betraying his father, Hades, and the first friends he ever had in Camp Half-Blood.

But seeing you here with him, being official partners in crime during your training and sneak attacks on the opponent team, he felt content.

"I'm glad I still have you," Nico whispered into the dark, staring up at the night sky as he held you close to his heart.

The two of you had snuck out to have a small picnic in the forest, holding hands and telling each other your deepest, darkest secrets.

"Me too," you replied, glancing up at Nico's peaceful, happy face."

You could never say what you actually wanted to say out loud.

This wasn't a family, this was a war troop.

Kronos and Luke didn't give a damn about how their soldiers were doing. Heck, you bet Luke didn't even want this anymore.

But as the day of the final battle rolled over, you realized that you had to come to face with a choice.

~ time skip ~

War waged all around you. Children were dying on the streets, their bodies left to rot and crumple under the sheer amount of monsters you were fighting alongside with.

You could hear the screams of the other campers, crying for their loved ones. You forced a smirk as you shot another one of them down.

You were doing this for their own good. The gods had to be wiped out. This is for the greater good.

Right?

Suddenly, in the midst of the crowd, you saw a face that you've only known through stories and tales from Nico.

You saw the hero that opposed your cause.

You had him right there: Percy Jackson, the boy who hurt your best friend.

You lifted your bow, your arrow ready to shoot when your eyes fell onto a different face in the crowd.

You saw her.

Hestia.

Before you could look away, Hestia had made sure you locked eyes with her.

Stupid goddess magic.

All of a sudden, you were brought into a flashback that wasn't even yours.

You saw Percy Jackson, fighting for his life in the arena as he tried to save his friends.

You saw him, feeling lost and alone as everyone he knew hated his guts.

You saw the little boy who used to cry for his mother when the Manticore took her.

You saw Percy Jackson, wishing for a family to love and be loved.

Just like how you and Nico did.

With a blank of an eye, Hestia was gone. And you knew what you had to do.

Tears fell swiftly down your cheeks as you shot the monsters down, knowing that Kronos would catch on to what you were doing in a matter of seconds.

They were your family. For years, you had lived among the monsters and the lies. No matter how evil or how bad they were, you couldn't help but feel your heart break at every screech.

Gods, you hate emotional attachments. Why does such a thing exist, anyway?

You could hear Kronos's booming voice, raging as Luke spotted you.

He pointed at the building you were perched upon and told Nico one word.

"Kill."
