Hi Everyone! thanks so much for reading, I really appreciate it. This is my first ever fanfic so would really appreciate feed back. Disclaimer: I do not own any of Rick Riordan's characters.

A Scream Pierced the air, it took a moment before I realised it was mine. I was truly terrified. I had heard stories about being terrified my whole life but, didn't know it would feel like this. My feet were glued to the floor, my mind was unable to process anything but one thought RUN. But I held my ground.

My eyes slowly lifted upward inch by inch until they rested on a ginormous hole about one and a half metres long and two meters wide. I was covered in a thin layer of white dust, small scratches, one big cut on my forehead which was leaking quite a lot of blood, I began to feel dizzy, the floor around me was covered in the shattered remains of what used to be the ceiling, which seemed to be moving.

'No time for this' I thought 'use your training'

I heard another scream and again, didn't recognise it as mine. There was something peering down at me through the hole with large, intense yellow eyes about the size of dinner plates. My senses finally kick in, I grab my dagger from my left boot (yeah, I know, stereotypical but it is actually very convenient) and throw it at the dagger pins its tail down. Thank the god for target practice, I think to myself. The creature can't move now so I grab some chairs from the desks around me and make a rather unstable chair tower. I climb up, being careful not to put too much weight on one side of the tower so I don't upset the balance, otherwise this chair tower is going down.

See, this is why I don't like detention unexpected things always happen. At least my teacher didn't turn into a fury like my fathers did. That would be one thing that could make this day worse. When I make it up into the space above the ceiling I examine the creature carefully, while keeping my distance, it could still lash it's long knife like claws at me. It was unlike anything I've ever studied, so much for my parents sending me to school to get out of danger. I'm sure I would have been much safer at camp half-blood. I get out my cell phone, thank the gods Leo created cell phones that are untraceable by monsters, and take a picture of the 'thing'. Mum will be really interested in this I think as I wonder how I'm going to kill it because my dagger is still pinned in the tail.

This would usually be when Mum skills should kick in, her way to think her way out of anything, unfortunately that is one of the ways I am unlike her. The 'thing' is getting more and more restless and has almost pulled its tail free, when I realise something all around me are pipes, I can feel the water running through them like the blood rushing through my veins. I concentrate and suddenly all of the pipes burst and large fountain of water erupts onto the 'things' face and causes the small distraction I need to grab my dagger and drive it into it's skull. Then it turns dust and returns to Tartarus. I always that it was extremely handy how monsters do that it really saves on the clean up messes

I make my way down the chair tower and am about to suss out the damage to the classroom when I hear a voice that's sounds like nails scraping on a chalkboard "Just the person I wanted to see" and then a high pitched scream as my teacher Mrs Hawkins turns into a fury.

"Really" I say "you have got to be kidding me." She lunges at me her talons almost scratching me, I hold my dagger steady and swing it around just in time to catch one of her wings. I run to a desk, tip it over and use it as a barricade as she lunges again. I hear her high pitched screech again and see her just about to turn around and face me. "ok time for target practise again" I think as I hurl my blade at her it hits in the centre of her chest, she disappears and my dagger falls to the ground.

"Time to get away from this hell hole" I shout as I race out the door and pull on the fire alarm. The oldest trick in the book. Maybe that would help them explain the water gathering in a pool on the classroom floor. I run to the school entrance, out the door, around the block, into an alley where there is no one and whistle as loud as I can. Come on hurry up I think. There's a rush of wind, a tap of hooves and then standing in front of me is my Pegasus champ. His glossy black coat gleaming in the sun.

"Hop on, " he whinnies

"We need to go to camp, and fast" I say as champ leaps into the air.

"Bad day, huh?"

"You could say that" I reply. I inherited the ability to talk to horses from my dad, he's a son of Poseidon and since Poseidon created horses he can talk to them. I think it's great, whenever I get fed up with people I can go to the stables and talk to the Pegasi.

We arrive at Camp Half-Blood in a matter of minutes. As soon as we land I jump of Champ while yelling a "thanks" and start running over to the big house where my parents and Chiron work. I'm sure they'll all want to hear this.

"Dad, dad, mum, where are you" I run into the 'conference room' and see my dad cradling my mum who is in tears. "Is this a bad time?" I ask.

Thanks for reading! please review! will post next chapter as soon as possible.
