Chapter One:

When you wake up to the smell of burning waffles, you know that you're going to have a bad day. Even if it's sunny outside, the birds are chirping, and the clouds look like fluffy white pieces of heaven- it's gonna be an insane day.

I'm getting ahead of myself. The name's Isabella Minerva Madison. Please- call me Izzy. Anyway, I'm just your average 15 year old girl- or so I seem. All my life, I've had.. incidents. Being the only witness to seeing an owl poop on my principals' head in 5th grade. Being able to recite the entire Declaration of Independence backwards.. then mysteriously forgetting at a school assembly. Losing my lucky necklace, only to find it in the teachers' desk… and a lot more. Of course, having curly blonde hair and gray eyes doesn't help matters at all. I've been told that I look like my mom. I wouldn't know, considering she flew the coop when I was still a baby. Then when my dad died when I was 4, I was shipped off to my aunt Roses' house. Aunt Rose is my fathers' sister. She's pretty cool, but the only thing- she can't cook. At all. The woman can't even boil water without making something explode. Anyway- this is what happened.

I wake up to something burning, then look around my room furiously. Everything is in place then I think: THE KITCHEN! I run out and see Aunt Rose fanning the toaster.

"No! You're only fueling the fire!" I shout as I run over to the toaster and look at Aunt Rose anxiously. She seems to get the message and hands me the fire extinguisher. Then, I back up and extinguish the flames. Unfortunately, I'm covered in foam. As I look at Aunt Rose, grinning sheepishly she just smiles and points me towards the direction of the bathroom.

"That went well!" I shout as I close the door to take a quick shower.

-30 minutes later-

I walk out of the bathroom and see a bagel sitting for me on the table. Then, I see my best friends Jeremy and Rebecca. As I shrug on my bookbag, they look at each other, then at me. I shrug it off quickly. Rebecca, or 'Becky' as we call her is pretty with light brown eyes and light blonde hair. Jeremy is slightly crippled and always walks with a slight limp. He has cheerful brown eyes and curly brown hair. Even with our differences, the three of us are inseparable.

As I grin towards them, ready to leave, Becky snickers softly. 'Iz… there's some foam in your hair." she says as she picks it out gently. I smile. "Thanks, Beck." Jeremy just sits there quietly and waits for us.

"Ready to go, guys?" I ask. They both nod in unison. "Bye Aunt Rose!" I shout as we close the door and walk out into the crisp New York morning. If you had told me that moment that I wouldn't make it home, I would have looked at you like you were insane. The walk was relatively quiet. Then, as we walked to our school, Chesswood High we all stopped in our tracks. There was a big hairy something attacking the school. And it was racing towards us. Suddenly, I heard a shriek and the world went black.

A/N: Ooh! A cliffhanger! Hehe! :P

Another story, this time my very first Percy Jackson fanfic. This story contains my character, Isabella, that I RP as on facebook. I know it's dorky but RPing is actually pretty fun. There's also Blake, a character from my buddy, XjjmurphXroleplayerX. If you haven't read his story, 'The Strawberry Fields At Last' READ IT NOW! There are also some charries from people that I RP with. I only own Izzy, all other credit to Rick Riordan.
