Carter Kane POV

"Uncle Amos, do we really have to go to school?" begged Sadie

" Yes, now get into the car with Bast." replied Amos then walked away.

"Why do you hate school so much?"

"All you can do is just sit there at a desk listening the teach talk about things."

"Well, I've never been to a public school before so I always wonder what it's like."

"You don't want to know."

We walked up to a banner that said WELCOME TO GOODE. But that wasn't what caught my eye. Bellow it was a trio, with two guys and one girl. They had a strange sense of power, like magicians. My first thought was that we were going to have a hard time if they were from the house of life.

"Sadie, do you think those kids are from the house of life?"

"I don't know, but they do have a strong aura."

"I still think it's safer to stay away from them."

"I agree," Was her only answer. Not the typical Sadie.

Percy POV

I was talking to Annabeth and Nico when I saw a boy and a girl staring at us. The girl pointed at us and they walked away. I decided to investigate.

"Hey guys, I'm going to go use the restroom."

"Alright."

I followed the boy into an empty room as soon as I turned around the corner, I felt a wall of force push me onto the wall.

"Who are you?" He asked with a curved sword pointed at me.

"I don't think that's your business."

"You follow me into this room and say it's none of my business? I can kill you!"

"I don't think you can kill me." Right after I said that I made the water fountain explode.
