So, this is the story of Andromeda Jackson. A troubled kid who has no idea what is in store for her. She is walking through Central Park with Nico DiAngelo when these two teenagers waltz into her life, or more like chase themselves. Andy (that's what she likes people to call her) discovers she is not a normal girl. Rated T for mild violence in later chapters.

Chapter 1

I didn't think my day could get any worse. I was wrong. It all started while I was walking through Central Park with my friend Nico. Well, he wasn't exactly my friend anymore... Nico had shaggy black hair and is normally extremely pale. Today he seemed really tired. Anyways, we were holding hands and walking through the park when someone called Nico's name.
A girl, who was really pretty was running up to us. She had blond hair and gray eyes. A boy was running after her. He was tall and tan. They seemed to be laughing and joking around, if I had to guess I'd say they were 16 or 17 years old, maybe older. The boy had dark hair and sea green eyes. Just like me. Okay that was kinda freaky...
The girl looked back and forth between me and Nico and smiled.
"Nico's got a girlfriend!" She said this in a sing song voice so she obviously was teasing him. These people were obviously close to Nico and an important part of his life so I decided to introduce myself. Before I had the opportunity the boy caught up to us he wrapped his arms around the other girl's waist and kissed her on the cheek.
"I win." He laughed then turned to Nico and I, "Who is this?"
I shook his hand and replied, "I'm Andromeda but I prefer to be called Andy." They both burst out laughing. I must have had a confused look on my face because the girl composed herself long enough to explain.
"Sorry, my name's Annabeth and this is Percy, short for Perseus." That's when I started laughing. I noticed Nico wasn't laughing. I was able to stop laughing and asked, "Nico, don't you think that's funny?"
"Yeah, I've laughed enough about it though that I can compose myself." and that's when he started laughing too. Then I thought, how do these people know Nico? Nico started speaking to Percy with a changed tone.
"She's a half-blood. Really powerful. She goes to my school that's how we met." Half-blood, what was that?
I was hurt. I knew both my parents were half Greek but I never had told Nico this. "Nico, how did you know that I was half Greek. I've never told anyone that in my life." His eyes widened.
"Did you understand everything I just said?" I nodded. "See Percy I told you she was powerful. She can understand Ancient Greek without even trying. We have to get her to camp." Just then, I heard a loud roar. Nico cursed which was totally like him and Percy took a pen out of his pocket. I turned around and I found I was staring in the face of a big lion.
