Chapter 1
(I don't own PJO)
I meet a scaly friend
My name is Ace Kage. I'm 16 years old. I'm a sophomore at Washington high school in New York City. Today I'm going to a history museum for my history class. This trip was on the last week of school and my last chance. I have a long history of ruining field trips like last year I flooded the bathroom at the broadway theater and the year before I flipped the ferry my class was on after a good trip to the Statue of Liberty. I could go on forever but those aren't important. This trip was going good I'm sitting with my best friends Willow Stat and Seth Elm. Willow is 16, short and petite with long light brown hair that reaches the middle of her back. She has light green eyes like kinda like mine but lighter. She also has tannish skin. Willows like me a trouble maker but that's because she gets bullied, fights back and gets in trouble for it which has caused me to get in a couple of fights that she will never know about. Then there's Seth is 16, he's my height 6'0 and has black short hair and a decent length go tee. He almost always wears green or tie-dyed shirts, beanies and jeans. He's the only one in the group who isn't a trouble maker and is very Poseidon which was the correct answer I guess. I was to busy seeing if that shady dude was still following us, I snapped back to the present when Seth told me we were taking a lunch break. So Willow, Seth and I walked outside and sat by the fountain in front of the building. "Ace watch out, here comes trouble." I heard Willow warn. There he was come towards me, Tyler Frez the captain of the football team and my hated PAL. He stopped right in front of us, "Look at this the geek, the hippie and the loser." . "What do you want Tyler" I said, not really in the mood for his snark right now. "Nothing just wanted to congratulate flat chest on her answer earlier." This really ticked me off since he made fun of her because he learned that I don't care what he says about me so he attacks Willow. I stood up grabbed him by the shirt and said "Watch your tongue Tyler or else.". That got him to give up because when I let him go he just walked away. "Thanks" Willow said, "No problem, I hate that guy too.". After that the trip went smoothly. I arrived back at home about an hour later due to traffic. I live in a apartment in downtown New York City. My mom greeted me from the living and asked how was my day. I told her about it leaving out the part about Tyler. When I walked in to the living room I saw her doing what she always doing in there which is working on her novel. Ok let me take a second to explain my mom. Her name is Rose, she's about 5'6 with brown eyes and hair. She grew up in Seattle, Washington where she apparently meet my dad, a little bit after that she said she began to work on a book and moved to New York City for inspiration. She has raised me single handedly for as long as I can remember. "How's your novel going?". " Good" she said as she wrote down something and then shouted down which scared the life out of me since I was in the kitchen cooking some top ramen which is my favorite food. She ran in to the kitchen and said "she was running down to the office to drop rough draft of her book and that I could go to Seth's place.". She was out the door before I could say good bye so I sat down and just started to my ramen when I got a urgent text from Seth saying I should come over. So I finished my ramen, packed a bag of clothes and left. It took me a good hour to get to Seth's house since he lives in the country. When I arrived, I was shocked to see Willow there on his porch waiting. "Hey Seth texted you too?' I yelled at her. "Yeah" she yelled back. I got to the porch and sat next to her on Seth's porch swing. After a couple of guess of what he called us both here for. We got our answer as Seth bursted out of his door and told us to follow him. Confused and a little shocked we followed him through a trail in the woods that lead to a road. On the other side of the road there was a little field with a hill on the far side covered in trees, put all the trees were dwarfed by a enormous pine tree. "Run to the hill, then up it and don't stop in till you pass the pine tree!" Seth yelled in a very nerves way. Willow, Seth and I took off towards the hill, we were half way there when Tyler and that shady guy appeared from behind so trees. "What do you want Tyler?" I said, " Nothing just your blood half blood." He retorted. Half blood what was he talking, I never got to ask because Seth smacked him in a face with what looked like a club in till, Tyler turned in to dust. The shady guy charged Seth, knocking him in to Willow. They crashed in to the ground, the guy turned towards me and that's when I notice I wasn't looking at a he but a scaly snake dude. Seth was starting to get up when he told me tap my ring which I did causing it to turn in to a 2ft gold gladius just in time for me to stab the snake guy in the gut but not before he stabbed me in the side with a knife. I heard Willow yell my name right before I blacked out.
