So here is my AU fanfic. I hope you like it. I wrote the whole story ages ago so, will update fast and the reason all the chapters are in lots of bits and POV changes is because when i wrote it my average chapter length was about 250 words so each chapter is usually about 5 or more old chapters combined

Disclaimer: unfortunately i dont own PJO or HoO they belong to Rick Riordan. if i did own them then i wouldnt write crappy fanfiction about them so yeah...

Chapter 1:

Third Person POV:

As she heard the front door slam, the girl crying on her bed knew, her day was about to get a whole lot worse. For most teenagers high school is a great experience, but not for Annabeth Chase. Ever since she had joined the Wilderness High School, she'd been bullied because she was clever. That day had been no different to the rest; she'd been tripped, kicked, taunted and called a nerd. Now Susan, her wicked step-mother, was home. Annabeth stiffened and prepared to be shouted at.

"Come down here now to help the dishes" Susan was shouting already.

"This is Tartarus" She muttered to herself as she hurried down stairs.

Annabeth's POV:

I was lying on my bed, trying to rest as I finally felt myself drifting off.

I dreamed the same dream that I dreamt every night; I, Annabeth Chase, was living back in New York with my mom and dad, I dreamt they never broke up and Athena, Frederick and Annabeth Chase were just your normal New Yorkers.

I dreamt that at school I wasn't bullied, I was popular. I dreamt that I never had to leave all my friends; that I hadn't moved to San Francisco. I was still besties with Thalia, Silena, Silena's sister Piper, Juniper, I even missed, and gods forbid, Clarisse.

Next came the part of the dream I yearned most. I dreamt that I had a boyfriend, a nice, loyal, hot and kind of clever boy. I dreamt we were in love, an inseparable pair, soulmates.

This was my perfect life.

But this was a dream.

Polar opposites. My life. And. My dream.

Annabeth's POV: "Annabeth, come downstairs now, breakfast is ready"

Groaning I got up, it was only 8a.m on a Saturday. "Why did you get me up so early?" I yawned

"Annabeth, we have something to tell you..." my dad began. "W-what's happening?" dad's tone had made me nervous. "I got offered a job in another area so we're moving."

"Where?" I was bursting with curiosity. "New York, Manhattan to be precise."

"When?" I was soo happy; I could see everyone again "On Tuesday. This Tuesday"

My eyes widened in disbelief, but I wondered about my school work and what school I was going to. Would it be the same school as my friends?

"Go and start packing some of your stuff!" Susan was ordering me around. Again!

Annabeth's POV:

It was Tuesday morning, for the last time I woke up in San Francisco; tomorrow I'd be in the city that never sleeps- New York.

I was deep in thought of seeing my friends again that I didn't notice the two little bullets that shot into my room and knocked me over. "Bobby, Matthew get off me!" "Daddy wants your..." Began Bobby

"Suitcase downstairs..." Matthew carried on straight from Bobby's words

"Now!" They said in sync.

XXXX2HoursLaterXXXX

"Flight Number NYC248251 now boarding at gate 15"

My flight was announced and my family and I hurried towards gate 15 with our hand luggage. I was looking forward to the flight because I would finally get time to read my new books - one on architecture and one on Greek mythology, my favourite subjects.

Thalia's POV

I hate Wednesdays because I hate math especially algebra- I have a double period of algebra on Wednesday mornings yay (sarcasm). "Miss Grace" I turned round and Mr Brunner was behind me. "Yes?"

"There is a new girl in your class today, and you have been assigned to help her settle in."

Yay fun for me (sarcasm again)

"Yes, sir"

I walked to the reception wondering what the new girl would be like, and wondering if she would like me. I could be a lot to handle I had jagged short black hair, looked like a cross between a punk and a Goth except my eyes which were startlingly blue. I was always sarcastic especially near people I don't know and my cousin- Percy - he is so dense it's ridiculous.

I realised I'd reached the reception. Stood in front of me, facing away was a girl with long curly blond hair. Yay a blond! (Sarcasm.) But as the girl turned around my opinion changed.

"Annabeth!"

Thalia's POV:

"Annabeth!" The blond girl on front of me had been my best friend since we were 7- until she moved to San Francisco. "Thals!" She seemed as surprised to see me as I was to see her. "Miss Chain, Miss Green I take it you know each other"

I turned around and realised Mr D the principal was behind us

"It's Chase."

"It's Grace." We said at the same time.

"Whatever, Tabitha show Annabel around you are in all the same classes so help her settle in." "It's Thalia!"

"It's Annabeth!"

"Whatever. Go to your lessons"

As I walked out I explained our timetable to Annabeth

"We need to go to algebra class. It's soooo boring"

"Yeah well you have ADHD so it would be boring to you"

"You still got that dyslexia?"

"That doesn't affect my intelligence"

"Whatever, wise girl!"

XXXX at Lunch XXXX

Annabeth's POV:

Thalia led me through crowds of people sitting on tables gossiping. "Populars?"

"Yeah populars - players and sluts." Thalia replied matter-of-factly.

Next we worked past a few tables of people doing homework, solving puzzles and playing on their DSlites "Nerds?"

"Yup, nerds and geeks"

Thals led me past a few more groups of people until we reached a table in the corner with a few people sitting on.

"This is where we sit, stay here I have a plan." She walked over to our friends, "Guys, I have to look after the annoying new girl so she's sitting with us"

A few people groaned. Thalia nodded to me.

"Come on."

I sat down and said:

"How've u been in the last 9 years, long time no see, huh."

Silena's POV:

"Annabeth?!" I was the only one who spoke as the "annoying" new girl turned out to be my friend from when we were 7.

"Yep, the very same."

"Who's this?" asked Jason.

Oh yeah you don't all know her,do you? Everyone this is Annabeth Chase, who I'm guessing just came back from California after moving there 9 years ago."

"I only know about half of you, so could you tell me who you are." Annabeth inquired.

"Jason Grace, Thalia's brother and Piper's boyfriend.

"You know me, Piper." She smiled at Annabeth.

"Nico Di Angelo"

"You're Thalia's cousin right?",

"Yeah."

"Hey, I'm Frank"

"Hazel Levesque, girlfriend of the amazing Frank Zhang."

"Hey, princess it's me Clarisse. Frank is my little bro. This is my boyfriend Chris Rodriguez."

"Yo, I'm Leo Valdez"

"Sup, I'm Grover Underwood"

"We are..."

"The Stolls"

"Connor & Travis"

I'm Katie Gardener"

"The name's Charles Beckendorf, but everyone just calls me Beckendorf"

"Last but not least," began Thalia, "This is my boyfriend Luke Castellan"

At that point I wondered if I was the only one who saw the change in Annabeth's expression, a momentary change to something that looked like hate, anger, disappointment or worry. But as soon as Annabeth realised I was watching she smiled again, but this time the smile didn't quite meet her eyes.
