Chapter Five - Meeting Nico HS AU

Nico walked down the hallways to get to his first class, he always sat in the back. That way he could disappear without anyone noticing. Sadly his first class was history where at this time they were to be studying Greek Mythology which Nico knew was going to be easy for him.

The teacher stood up from her desk as the bell rang to begin her lesson, "We are learning Greek Mythology. As people should know this took place in the 8th Century BC, they worshiped many gods, which we will be learning about today." she paused, "Can anyone share any names of the gods?"

No one bothered to reply, she searched the room and her eyes landed on Nico. "Ah, young man in the back. Gods?" Everyone was staring at Nico, he could see the girls blush and bat their eyelashes at him. He was absolutely disgusted by the amount of straightness these girls radiated off them. He had no cares for them, he was hella gay with a hella gay boyfriend. Nevertheless, he muttered a god under his breath.

"Speak up young man."

"Hades." he clarified. "God of the Underworld and riches"

A couple of kids snickered in the back. One of them whispered, "Of course the goth boy knows that one."

Nico jumped to his feet kicking his chair back and said: "First of all, I'm not goth, I just like the color black, second I know all the gods you can think of."

"Yeah right." the kid scoffed. Nico glared at him and proceeded to list all the gods, goddesses, and most minor ones. He heard a female voice say in a snotty tine "What's he gonna do now? Speak Greek?"

Nico turned to her and said "Me synchoreís? Skýla Miláo treis glósses, Elliniká." (Excuse me? Bitch, I speak three languages, Greek included.) "Is this how life is all year?" many heads nodded. "That's not gonna work for me so, By Mortals, your all pieces of shit. I'll see you when you die." Nico stood up and made my way to the door, he was stopped by a raspy voice.

"Thank you for revealing your self-little demigod." The teacher said.

"Reveal yourself," Nico said. The mortals were confused. The mist can cover minor monsters but not major ones. Let's hope this one's minor. Nico thought.

She exploded revealing her true form. Red flaming hair, a metal leg, and a donkey leg. She was a charmspeaking vampire. One of the Hecates minions. "Come here demigod." she tried to charmspeak. But Nico is gay, that did nothing on him.

"No way. Are you Kelli, Tammi or Seraphine?"

"Tammi, Duh."

"Oh and your charm won't work on me. I'm gay." Nico stated. Many of the girls deflated.

"Wha-" she couldn't finish her sentence. Nico had lodged a Dagger in her heart. She growled and exploded into golden dust. His dagger clanging to the ground. He walked over to it and picked it up. Spun it a little as it turned into Bianca's skull ring.

"Who are you?" a kid asked.

"Oh right." he said rolling his eyes."Mortals."

"What the Hell is that supposed to mean?"

"I have a couple things to say, everything mythology related is real. My name is Nico Di Angelo, son of hades, I go by many titles. Ambassador of Pluto, Commander of the dead, Son of Hades, Survivor of the Titan war- though they would have lost had it not been for my skeleton army - carrier of the Athena Parthenos, first survivor of Tarturus, first greek to know about Romans, I have a lot more but I don't have time. "

Nico whistled for Mrs. O'Leary, She came out of the shadows frightening the mortals. He climbed on and whispered "Camp Half-Blood, Long Island Sound" into her ear. She barked and shadow traveled away.

What a great first and last day of school. Nico thought as they dissolved into the shadows.

Cringy as shit but hey....
