Percy-
It all started when I was at McDonalds, remembering Nico's love for Happy Meals. I decided I would get one in honer of him.

I was just about to go up to get my order, when I saw something that confirmed my fears.

The same man who had been walking behind me on my way here, was still behind me, trying to look casual.

I was being followed.

Great.

Who wanted to kill me now?

I went up to get my order, acting like I hadn't seen the person. As soon as I paid, I left knowing the person was still behind me.

Turning the corner, I went into the alleyway. This would turn our better if no one else was watching.

Just like I thought, the guy was still following.

Setting down my happy meal, I stood up.

"Let's make this quick. I've got places to be." I said, not even looking at him as I cracked my knuckles.

"I'm Agent Thorne, and I need you to come with me." The guy said.

"Great." I muttered, "Now the governments after me!"

Then more loudly I said: "No can do man, your going to have to do this the hard way."

The man smirked at me, then came running. He threw the first punch, but I easily blocked it. He tried to kick me, but I blocked that to.

After a few minuets, I decided to end the fight.

I punched him in the gut, causing him to fall over, then leaned in.

"Tell your boss that he's going to have to try a lot harder then that if he really wants me."

As I stood to my full hight again, I threw one last punch that successfully nocked him out.

As I left the alley with my food, the same question bothered me as I ate it and walked to school.

Who is after me? Why?

Guy-In-Charge POV-
Thorne was gone way to long.

How long can it take to detain a kid?

But my questions were answered for me when the elevator door opened.

Thorne came in, beat and bloody, then sat down in a chair.

"Well?" I pressed.

"That kid," he said, "has got some serious skill. He beat me in a matter of minutes, and I could tell he was holding back, but I think I can get him next time"

What?!

"Are you serious?! He's a kid!"

"A strong kid." Thorne said.

I glared at him, and he flinched away.

"Right before he knocked my out, he said 'tell your boss that he's going to have to try a lot harder then that if he really wants me'."

I glared at him, then said: "Go to the doctor. You have three days or I'm putting someone else on the case."
