Chapter One: The Beginning
Bianca, Grover and I were heading to the end of term dance at our military school, Westover Hall, and we were all in good spirits. I have to admit that I do not like dancing and I know that Bianca doesn't either but we decided to go simply because the school didn't have events often and we wanted to be part of the atmosphere.
"Bianca," I said
"Yes, Nico," she answered.
"Did you know that in my game, Zeus has lightning bolts that can do 600 damage?"
"No, I didn't know that Nico." she said with an amused smile.
Just then we entered the gym, Bianca and I decided to sit on a bench at the edge of the room. Grover hurried away from us and disappeared through the doors.
"I wonder where he's going," said Bianca thoughtfully
"Maybe he went to get something." I suggested.
"Yeah maybe," she said frowning.
The doors opened again and Grover came back with three people I didn't recognize. One was a boy with black hair and green eyes, another was a girl with long blonde hair and startling grey eyes and the last was another girl with spiky black hair and bright blue eyes.
"Who do you think they are?" I asked Bianca
"I don't know," she answered.
I looked at them again and I saw that they were sneaking glances at us cautiously. The girl with the black hair suddenly grabbed Grover's hand and pulled him on to the dance floor.
"Miss di Angelo, Mr di Angelo, come with me." said a voice behind us.
I looked round to see our vice principle Dr. Thorn standing there. He grabbed us by the scuffs of our necks and dragged us away.
