Nico's flashback
So, not a ghost.
No.
Not a demon.
No.
Not a spirit.
No.
But you're familiar with all above.
Kind of. You are alone?
Always. Anytime, anywhere. It's a miserable life sometimes.
I meant the house, but yeah, I'm familiar with this feeling too...

Nico tried to control his temper when another one bumped him. On purpose.
Why do you come to school?
I don't know.
Hope?
Of what?
That something will change.
I don't know. Maybe.
She IS the last one in the pythos.
The what?
Pandora's box.
Nico tripped when someone put a foot in front of him. On purpose.
Let me guess. This is going to happen all day.
You guessed right.
I never wished my sword at my side so bad. I'd slice it through these mortals without a second thought.

Turn right. That's the street.
To where?
Nico stopped at an iron gate, tall, rusty and heavy.
A cemetery?
Most of times, the dead are better company than the living.
Tell me about it.
***
"Hey, psst"
Should I answer?
I don't think it's worth. Keep your head down.
"Pssst!"
She is insistent.
Not worth.
"Styx, Nico, look at me"
