Carly POV
I was just finished with packing my bags and was ready for my sophomore year at Zeus Academy. Even though it was my sophomore year, it was my first year there. I just hope I'm put in a house with Sam and Spencer is my house guardian.
"Ok kiddo, ready to go to the Zeuse Acadamy?" Spencer said.
"Yup, and Sam should be here any minute" I said. Right on cue she walked through the door with two suitcases and a carry-on.
"Why so many?" Sam asked. I looked down and saw that I had four suitcases and two carry-ons.
"We're gonna be there for eight months!" I said.
"Yeah, but we have a uniform" Sam said. That was the only thing I didn't like about Zeus Academy, the uniforms. They're cute but I like expressing myself. At least we get to accessorize as we please.
"Yeah, at least leave one of these behind" Spencer said. I sighed and put the smallest one in the corner.
"Hey people" Freddie said coming in with Gibby.
"Hey Freddie, hey Gibby" I said
"Are we ready to go?" Spencer asked.
"Yup!" We all said. We drove to California in his car, yeah that's where the boarding school was. When we finally got there we were told to sit in the gym. They were just finished making announcements.
"All new students stay behind" the man said. This guy didn't look right. He looked, evil. I know it was just my imagination, but he just looked so creepy. Like he shouldn't be at a school, like he didn't belong. The fact that he was in a school, makes it look like he's up to no good.
"Why are you five late?" he pointed to me and the gang.
"It was a long drive and-" Spencer started
"Never mind I'm not interested" he said.
"Ok" Spencer said
"For you guys let me introduce myself. I'm Mr. Pluto, I am the headmaster of Zeus Academy" he said. "I don't have time to repeat announcements for you so I will just tell you where your house is"
"Ok" Spencer said
"I did not ask you to speak" Mr. Pluto said. "When I call your name, you will step forward. Spencer Shay?"
"Yes that's me" he said standing up.
"You are the house Guardian for the Poseidon House" he said. "Fredward Benson, Orenthal Gibson, Samantha Puckett, Caterina Valentine, Jade West, you will join Mr. Shay to your house"
"Yes sir" Gibby said and I chuckled. I was upset I was in a house with all these strangers and I'm not with my brother. Oh well, I'll make new friends.
"Katrina Vega" Mr. Pluto said
"I'm here" a short tan girl with long brown hair said.
"You are the House Guardian of the Hephaestus House" he said. "Andre Harris, Beck Oliver, Robbie Shapiro, Carly Shay, Victoria Vega, you will join Katrina Vega to your house"
"Ok guys let's go, I have a map so I can take you" Katrina Vega said. "Oh, and call me Trina"
"Great, mostly guys in this house. They're gonna think they own the house" I said
"Not if I have something to do with it" a girl behind me said. "Besides we have a female House Guardian"
"That's true" I said. "I'm Carly"
"Tori" she said and shook my hand. "That's my sister"
"Lucky, I wanted to be in a house with my brother Spencer but I'm not" I said
"You're lucky, I wanted to be in a house without my sister" Tori said and I laughed. "Don't you think Beck is so cute?"
"Which one is that?" I asked
"The guy with the fluffy hair" Tori said
"Yeah, but he was sitting offaly close to the girl with the jet black hair" I said
"That's his girlfriend Jade" Tori said. "But I have a huge crush on him so I have to get them to break up"
"That's kind of rude" I said
"I don't think so" she said "They fight all the time so it's like I'm doing them a favor"
"That makes sense" I said.
"Hey, I'm Robbie" a boy with curly hair and glasses said.
"I'm Carly" I said
"I'm Tori" Tori said
"I'm Beck" the fluffy hair boy said.
"And I'm Andre" he said. "Beck, Jade, Cat, Tori and I have been friends for a few years now"
"Well this is the Hephaestus House" Trina said looking at the map and back up at the house.
"It's beautiful" I said and it was. It was big too. It had big dark wooden doors and it was stone. When we went inside the colors were warm. The theme was orange, red, yellow, like fire. It was pretty together.
"What is Hephaestus?" Robbie asked. I went in one of my carry-on bags and grabbed my computer. I took a seat on the couch and opened it and searched for Hephaestus.
"He's the Greek God of fire. I guess that's where the color theme comes from. It says he made swards and other weapons for the Gods. It also said he was crippled" I read
"So we get the crippled God? No fair" Tori said
"Well I think that the fact that he's crippled and still takes care of himself and was a hard worker says a lot" Trina said
"When did you get so insightful?" Tori asked
"Sometime during college" Trina said. "Isn't it awesome? Now I'm pretty talented and smart"
"Uh, yeah" Beck said. Trina eyed him before letting it go.
"Well you should probably go to your rooms" Trina said.
"Do you want to share a room with me?" I asked Tori
"Sure" she said. We ran upstairs and tried to find the best room. There was a room that was big but there wasn't enough closet space. Then we found a room that had a good amount of closet space but the actual room was too small. Then we found a room that was big and had a good amount of closet space, but it was for Trina because she was the House Guardian. We finally found another big room with a good amount of closet space and a view of the campus.
"This is perfect" I said. "Can I get the bed by the window?"
"Sure, this one's closer to the door and I always feel safer when I'm sleeping by the door" Tori said
"So how unfair is it that you have to wear uniforms" I asked
"I hate it, uniforms suck" Tori said.
"Students must wear a black skirt and a button up white shirt" I read.
"That's so boring" Tori said
"Yeah but you could decorate it anyway you want" I said. I pulled out a black skirt and a white button up and put it on. Then I found my lace leggings and put on my ballet flats. When I was done I showed Tori.
"Nice" Tori said. "My turn"
"Ok" I waited until she came out. She had on a white button up and a black pencil skirt that went to her mid-thigh. She hiked it up so the skirt was at her waist and put on some basic black oxford shoes. "Cute!"
"Hey guys!" Trina called. "Come down here"
"Coming" Tori called. We went downstairs to see the guys already down and already in their uniforms.
"So I'm going to read the rules they left for me" Trina said. "Students must be back home by eight thirty and be in bed by nine thirty"
"That's so early" Beck said
"Well, maybe as the year goes on, I'll let you off the hook at ten, but if I get in trouble for this it's your fault" Trina said. "Breakfast is at seven am, lunch is at school at eleven thirty am and dinner is at six thirty. You can go off campus for lunch but lunch is only an hour and you have to be back by twelve thirty pm"
"Just to clarify, we can eat lunch with other houses right?" I asked
"It doesn't say you can't" Trina said. "Ok, let's get you ready for your afternoon classes. This is a weird day but I'm sure tomorrow the schedule will be normal"
