Rachel's POV
(Yes, this is Rachel Dare).
I'm sitting in my boring history class which is taught by Mr. Snooze, wait I mean Mr. Cruise.
(Not Tom Cruise!)
He is rambling on about the origins of World War One in his boring, monotone voice when out of the corner of my eye I spot heaps of bronze birds that glistened in the sunlight soaring around a raven-haired, green-eyed boy that is holding what looks to be a bronze sword.
Now I will let you all in on a secret, the bad word at school is not the 'F-word' or the 'S-word' it is spew, it will get you out of class faster than you will know.
"Mr. Cruise, I think I need to spew," I said.
"Go to the bathroom, quick!" he yells, snapping out of his slow, boring, monotone voice.
I run outside and duck around the corner to see that guy again, chopping down bird after bird that was diving-bombing he, beaks and talons sharp and aim at him, while dodging countless bronze feathers that the birds are, throwing?
"Umm, what is going on," I shout so he can hear me over the squawking of the shiny birds.
"You can see this?" he asks.
"Yes!"
"Ok, these are Stymphalian Birds. The only way to defeat them is through music, can you get something from your music class while I deal with these."
"Ok."
I ran towards the music room, past multiple classrooms filled with kids that look like they will fall asleep with a click of the fingers.
I dashed into the music room ignoring the glare the teacher is sending me. The kids were staring at me like I'm Superman. I snatch a flute out of a young boy's hand, that could not play well at all and yell out to the teacher.
"This is an emergency, I'll give it back."
"Oi, get back here, Rachel Dare, bring that back now," the teacher yells.
I sprint out of the classroom towards the birds when I hear the sound of pipes drifting towards me and the smell of nature wafting around.
I run to where the boy was to see a half-goat, half-boy creature talking to the boy.
"Hey, what about me!" I yell.
"Forget you ever saw us… what's your name?"
"Rachel," I reply.
"Well forget you saw us Rachel, and by the way, I am Percy, Percy Jackson," he says and disappears around the corner.
"Wait, tell me what this is all about," I yell and run after him to find that he and his goat-boy hybrid friend have gone.
"God, damn it," I yell as it starts to rain and thunder. Suddenly lightning flashes through the sky and I run back into my classroom, completely forgetting about the flute.
