The Mockingbird

Animal I have become

Previously:

"Wait! Stay one night." Piper said and lead her to Franks room, it had a bunk bed plus he's her brother.

Alice woke up and was instantly met with memories. Just then an ironic song started playing on her phone, Animal I have become by Three Days Grace.
"Where's the hottie?" Alice heard Leo ask.
"Leo." Frank said in response.
"What?"
"Shut up."
Alice got up and got dressed. Then she wondered around the boat till she found the dining hall. Alice ate some red pancakes.
"Who eats red pancakes?" Nico asked.
"Me." Alice said and shoved the pancake in her mouth. Nico stood there, mouth wide open.
"How?"
"Practice."

Alice was wrestling Frank, and winning.
"3!"
"2!"
"1! AZ wins!!" Percy yelled. Alice stood and laughed at Franks shocked face.
"What? Was that supposed to be hard? I know I can beat a Chinese baby man." Franks face turned red with embarrassment.
"Leggo eat!" Alice, Percy and Nico started walking towards the dining hall.

"I want to try and wrestle you." Percy said.
Alice laughed and said, "okay sure. Hey Nico, why so quiet?" Nico instantly looked down.
"Reasons I don't like." Nico whispered.
"Duh, but why?" Alice asked with slight concern.
"My sister is dead." Nico said barely audible.
"Oh. I bet she's in a better place now. Elysium probably." Alice said remembering what her parents taught her about Greek mythology.
Nico nodded and sniffed. "Want to play a game?"
"What game?" Nico whispered, looking up.
"Mythologic."
"Okay." Alice and Nico went to Alice's/Franks room and played their card game.
"I won!" Nico shouted. "6,000 attack points! Beat that!"
"7,000 attack points! Ha!"
"Noooooooooooo!" Alice got many smiles out of Nico, even a laugh. Nico was finally coming out of his shell.

When Alice laid down that night, she felt she had a family that understood her, a real one.

Authors Note:
