"The son of Hades was never meant to find peace... until Gotham."
Nico di Angelo was already drowning in ghosts when he crash-landed in Gotham City. The shadows are thicker here. The buildings taller. The secrets deeper. When the Batfamily finds him, bruised and burned out, they take him in-reluctantly. Watching him. Studying him. Trying to understand the strange, quiet boy who talks to the dead and disappears into darkness.
But Nico has secrets even Bruce Wayne can't dig out. Secrets about war, gods, monsters-and the haunting prophecy that follows him like a stormcloud.
As the demigods and heroes collide, trust is fragile, and alliances are strained. The more Nico closes off, the more he begins to fall apart. Until someone finally sees through his shadows.
But Chaos is watching. And the first move is already in play.

His mouth was splayed out in a grain, I smiled back as he laid flat underneath me.

From Camp Half-Blood to Gotham (Nico x Batfam)
**All characters belong to the writers of DC and Rick Riordan.** Nico is careless, he's always known that. But he never expected himself to wind up in the LITERAL worst place in all of America. China would have honestly been better than this. But luck was not on his side, it never was, and probably will never be. But this was cruel, even for the fates, or the gods, or really anyone. Because everyone seemed to wish Nico nothing more than a rather sucky life. The only problem was Nico himself. Gods, did he need to get a grip on his life. Especially as he stared up at the rust Iron sign that read 'Welcome to Gotham!'Complete
Into the Shattered Night
Nico finally gets out of that weird hotel, only for everything to be different. There are a lot more lights, and everyone is staring at this tiny screen, and the weird lawyer lady is watching him now. His dad visits sometimes, but not enough. His sister is growing distant, which makes sense, she had her own life. It still hurt sometimes though. Then things start to change. He meets the Waynes, for one. Gotham is a big scary place, when he's allowed out into it, but they're nice. And their dad is funny. A lot funnier than his dad.(Don't tell Hades he said that. Ms. Alecto keeps saying he'd smite Nico. Nico didn't believe it, but still.) So yeah. Gotham is fine. His life is... nice. Even when the lights flicker because Bianca is yelling at him, then Ms. Alecto gets mad at her for not controlling her emotions. Even when he's allowed to go outside and he sees ghosts. He doesn't tell Ms. Alecto about that, he doesn't want her to get mad at him. Everything is fine. Then these weird people started coming around their house, and Ms. Alecto started telling them to stay out of the house. Where were they supposed to go? Bianca says the library. But Nico kinda wants to visit their neighbors next door. They seem nice. Not weird at all. Not like his family. *** *** *** *Trigger Warnings will be in the chapters, there's gonna be a lot, just be warned* Cover isn't mine, I don't own any PJO, HOO, or DC plot or characters

Don't Fear the Reaper
The Second Giant War was gruesome. With only 3 of the 7 left alive, they demigods of prophecy left the camps. They were unable, or maybe just unwilling, to be in the places where their friends once walked. They chose to escape the world of demigods while they still could. They wanted to try for normal so that maybe, one day, they could forget any of it ever happened. They wanted peace and safety. Nico... well, Nico had other ways of coping. ------------- Nico had had a long life. 16 years old, plus however many had passed in that cured casino had left little joy in his life. He had lost his grandparents, his mother, Bianca, his friends, and then Hazel... he missed her more than he could bare. He only knew his sister for around a year before he had lost her, and not a single day had passed in the last two years that he hadn't thought of her. He couldn't go to either camp or the underworld without feeling like his chest would explode from the pain. He knew she was in a better place. Her and Frank were in Elysium with Jason, Piper, and the rest of the heroes that died in the wars. She was at peace. Maybe she had even managed meet his mother and they were watching him now... though he honestly hoped they weren't. They would be disgusted by what he had become. --------- Nico x Batfam (unrelated to my Demigods in Gotham series)
