*Phoenix P.O.V*

As I hung there by my foot I launched a knife at Leo every time I got extremely agrovated. Once I threw my last knife Nico spilled out of a shadow. "Again? Really?" He sounded angry. "I fell into a 'prank war' trap." I said shrugging. He shook his head. I curled my body up until I was faceing my foot. I pryed the chain loop open and slid my foot out. I held onto the loop like it was my life line. Which it was. I began to swing in the direction of a catwalk. Once I had enough mometoum I let go and glided trough the air and grabbed the railing of the walk. I was hanging 58 feet in the air above cement floors. At least there would be a witness to my death. I lifted myself over the rail, once I got over the rail I looked over the edge. Nico had a look of relief on his face. I made my way down and found two sharpie marker. I examined them in my hands. I tossed one to Nico. He lifted it. "What am I going to do with this?" He asked slightly confused. I pointed to Leo. "You're so imattre." He laughed uncapping his marker.

As we used Leo's face as a canvas he would occasionally scratch his face or turn his head. Once we finished we stepped back to examine our work. I saw a bowl of water next to the Greek fire. "Nico do you think Leo's pants are in need of a wash?" I asked while walking over to the water.

"Not yet." He said watching what I was doing. I put the bowl next to Leo and walked over to four air horns. I picked them all up and handed two to Nico. I then cautiously lifted one of Leo's hands and placed it in the bowl. We shook our air hands and ran to random places of the workshop. "One, two, THREE!" I yelled. Nico and I set off our air horns. Leo shot up from his table, flaming. "RUN!" I screamed. Nico and I jumped into the nearest shadows. I shadow traveled to the roof of my cabin and I barely could see Nico in a tree. I shadow traveled to the tree next to Nico. I sat on the branch I was on, leaning my back to the tree. "Do you think he'll find us?" I asked. Looking down at the glowing figure emerging form a over sized boulder.

"Nah. He never looks up."

"He never looks up?"

Nico nodded. "You remind me so much of Six." I said looking up at him. Nico looked down at me. "Do I?" He asked raiseing an eyebrow.

My eyes lit up. "Follow me. But don't shadow travel. We're going to Maine." I said getting up. I jumped to another tree and did a sieries of ninja like moves. I waited for Nico until he caught up. I looked down and pointed to Leo who was nearing our tree. I grabbed Nico's wrist and let my body fall. Nico was screaming and I herd Leo yelling "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU IDIOTS DOING?!?"

'Baxk to Maine!" I yelled in my thoughts. I opened my eyes and Nico had tightened his grip on my hand and I opened my eyes and we were in front of an old mansion. It's what I called home for most of my life. "Where are we?" Nico asked letting go of my hand and looking around at his surroundings. "Six and I shared this place since I was seven."

"We'll now what?"

"Stay quiet!" I hissed and threw my hand over his mouth. The door slowly opened. Three Romans strolled out. They were deep in conversation. I yanked a bandana from my jacket and covered my nose and mouth. I threw on a pair of dark sunglasses. Once the third roman hid a key under a stone in the walkway I leapt from our hiding spot. "Oh no! A hobo!" The shortest one cried sarcastically. I slid my glove on. "Oh! She's going to slap us with a mitten!" The tallest one yelled.

*Nico's P.O.V*

As the Romans constantly taunted her I shook my head in sorrow. Those Romans won't know what hit them. I peeked out of our hiding place which was a bush. "Oh look another!" The short roman yelld pointing to me. I got up and walked to Phoenix. "Oh! It's Di Angelo!" The roman in the middle exclaimed. I stood next to Phoenix's right side mainly because her sword arm is her left. "Soooo... How's it been?" I said awkwardly.
