Prologue – Not Again! (Annabeth's POV)

PeeJay and company defeated Kronos at last. Now they're starting anew. Annabeth is enrolled in a boarding school near Manhattan, as well as Percy; who got his mom to enroll him there. But none of them knew. Have fun! :)

"Oh gods, another year coming. Another new school. New sets of friends. Can this get ANY worse? Oh how I wish Percy were here…I miss his green eyes and that super handsome face. I'll just try to focus on studying."

Anyway, I DID meet this guy. His name was Brad. He's also a demigod, which is totally awesome. His dad's Apollo, the sun god and his mom's a friend of my dad. Long story. Anyway…

He's okay. He's fun to hang out with, and he's cute too. He's got a sense of humor, but not like Percy's. Enough about him. Classes are about to start. I did an okay job trying to find my new classroom until…

"Watch where you're going you – PERCY?" I said in disbelief.

I guess he was about as shocked as I was.

"Annabeth? Is that you? Pretty as always." He smiled and gave me a hug.

It was very unexpected, but I missed the warmth of his body, sticking into mine. I hugged him back too.

He let go and said "I never knew you studied here. I missed you so much. I… mean… long time no see."

I laughed. "After 2 months of not seeing each other, and you say that? What's in your brain again? Seaweed?" I said as we both laughed.

I totally forgot that Brad was there behind me. I dragged him and introduced him to Percy.

"Hey, nice to meet you. Name's Brad." He said with "cool" ness.

"Percy. You too." He said, shaking his hand.

"Annabeth, I gotta go to my class, it's on the 13th floor. See ya later! You too Percy! Bye!"

"Yeah. Bye!'

"Take care of yourself! Don't trip on your way up!" I said while laughing.

"Let's go to class" he said, "we're getting late"

"I forgot to tell you, he's a demigod. A son of Apollo."

"Send him to camp. Tell him about his father. Tell him about us." He said.

Though I was curious why he said that, I didn't bother to know. We're in class. It was nice there. The best part, it's air conditioned, AND Percy.

"Crap. Why did I pick history again? I hate history."

Thunder boomed. That must be Zeus. "Be careful Percy, hahaha you don't want Zues frying you to fried chicken." I said while laughing.

"Ha-ha. Funny." He said, sarcastically.

"All right class. Take your seats. My name is Mr. Jones. Class, introduce yourselves. I want to know each and every one of you." Pointing at us.

I would've died of boredom if it weren't for Percy. He's grown awfully tall. He used to be 2 inches shorter than me. Now he's 2 inches taller. Ugh. And he's grown muscles. A bit of weight, and his hair grew longer. I could've spent all day staring into his face if it weren't for Mr. Jones.

"Your turn young lady, what's your name?" he said, eyeing me suspiciously.

"Annabeth Marie Chase, sir." I said with joy.

"Beautiful name, as so is your face." He said with a smirk. "And you, young gentleman?" he asked as if he were annoyed.

"Perseus Jackson sir, but you can call me Percy."

"Intriguing… hmmm… okay then. Everyone, take your seats and listen up. Our first lesson is going to be about Greek mythology. Who were the Titans? Can somebody tell me? Give me 3 examples."

"Can I volunteer sir?" Percy said.

"I can't see why not?"

"Atlas, the Titan who was holding up the sky." Doing actions like holding something above his head.

Mr. Jones shrugged as I said those words. "Go on…"

"Oceanus, the Titan who was defeated by Pos—I mean the Titan of the oceans and seas." He said, while doing wavy thingies with his hands, which was kinda funny.

Mr. Jones' eye seemed to twitch. I wonder what was with him. "Lastly?"

"Kronos. The Titan I def—I mean the father of the Big 3, Zeus, Poseidon, Hades. He was also a father to Chiron, my tea—I mean a centaur. Also the Lord of time." The moment I realized I said all of those crap, he asked me.

"Very impressive. Now, tell me how you learned all of these things. It seems to me that you are very good at Greek mythology."

Everyone stared at him like they were expecting a show. Yeah, and Percy was sweating like HELL. Yes, his face is wet now.

"I… uh, you see, my mom always had a thing for Greek mythology. Then, she bought some books and "encouraged" me to read them."

"I see… very well. Class is over." Just as he snapped his fingers behind his back, the bell rang. "Except for you two." He pointed at us. "Stay behind."

"I have a bad feeling about this, Percy…" I said, holding his hands.

Well guys, this may seem boring. But worry not, more chapters await. You probably know who Mr. Jones is, so… you'll get a better look at what will happen next. Review, and give suggestions. Thanks guys!
