It was the first day of the extra classes. Annabeth tied her hair into a ponytail and sighed. She hadn't expected it to come so soon. After all college pretty much tired her and extra classes on Saturdays was bound to be stressful.

Just don't think about it, Annabeth thought. This is for my own good. Anyways, How bad can it be.

What she didn't know was the classes were going to give her something she deserved, more than she could ever think of.

She packed her bag with some of her science books, pen, paper, and of course, food. She had forgotten all about her lunch. She quickly sprinted down the stairs to the refrigerator and took out an apple and some sandwiches made by her the night before.

Returning to her room and having packed her things, she turned to the clock. 7:25.

Oh no, she thought, I am so gonna be late for class. She grabbed her satchel and ran down almost knocking into her father.

"Hi, Dad. Good mornin'," said Annabeth. " And bye, Dad. I'm gonna be late for class.

" See you, honey," called her Dad, only half hearing what she said, engrossed in his papers.

Annabeth reached the bus stop and boarded the bus. She reached just in time to catch the bus. Whew, that was a close call, she thought relieved at having caught the bus.

She reached the school in fifteen minutes, reaching five minutes early than she needed to. She showed her ID card to the watchman and entered the compound. She slowly made her way to the first floor and began searching for the room of the class she had to attend.

She found one room half filled with people her age. Annabeth walked into the room and asked the closest person." Hey, is this the room for extra classes of science?"

"Yeah. If you're one of them. You can choose your seat. No fixed benches."

"Oh, thanks."

Annabeth made her way to the middle row, first bench where she was most likely to be noticed by the teachers. She liked to be given work by teachers unlike some others who scoffed at them behind their backs.

"Hey!" Her thoughts were interrupted by a worried voice that was probably speaking to her. She looked up and saw a girl with brown hair, golden eyes, dark skin and anxiety written all over her face."Can I sit here? This room is probably filled with boys and I'm not sure I want to sit with any of them."

She said this with such a hopeful expression on her face that Annabeth didn't have the heart to say no.

"Sure," she offered, removing her satchel off the desk." You can and I don't mind. I am pretty sure I wouldn't have sat with some of them if I could help it."

The girl laughed and sat down beside her." My name is Hazel. Hazel Levesque"

"Annabeth Chase." Came the reply.

"Hey!" interrupted a third vice which made them turn around to look at a beautiful girl with straight shoulder long brown hair with some lock braided and beautiful eyes, the colour of which couldn't be turned brown, then blue and black and repeat in just a microsecond.

Strange, thought Annabeth, I've never seen such eyes before.

"Hey," replied Hazel. "What's your name?"

"Piper McLean. And you?" She turned her head to look at both Annabeth and Hazel.

"Annabeth Chase." she said

"Hazel Levesque" Came the other reply.

"Oh.. Nice names. Good to meet you. I was so lonely, I thought I'd make some friends." Said Piper.

"Yeah, so was I. Then Hazel came and before we were done introducing ourselves, you came. So now I guess we are a team of three."Said Annabeth. "Aren't we?"She added looking a little doubtful.

"Of course we are,"Hazel piped in, looking hopefully at Piper, who smiled and said,"Yes, we are."

"Can you make that a four?" A hopeful voice chime in between their conversation.

All three heads turned to look at another girl, simply dressed in one plait and with a smile on her face.

"Hi, I'm Reyna. Do you mind if I sit here?" she said, turning to Piper.

"Of course not." Piper replied."And yeah, you can join our 'Thrilling Three' group to make it a 'Fantastic Four' one!"

All four girls laughed at the silly joke. Then the girls introduced themselves once again and had a lovely time telling each other their hobbies until a deep voice sounded.

"Good Morning, Class!"
