**Italics is Ancient Greek
Kiko's POV
I was moving to Forks, Washington; the rainiest place on earth with my cousin/best friend Lily, her twin brother, Percy and his girlfriend Annabeth, and my other best friend Selina. Why? I have no idea. Zeus had granted us a temporary pardon and was allowing us to fly on a plane to Forks. I really didn't want to, and neither did Percy and Lily. Selina was forcing us to though.
"Come on, it'll be fine! Dad says he won't blast us out of the sky!"
"Very reassuring, Lina. I am the daughter of HADES. And Percy and Lily are the children of Poseidon! We are NOT getting onto that metal death trap." I told her. But, we ended up getting on after she threatened to zap us.
"Hello everybody! This is your captain speaking, we are experiencing some minor turbulence. Please buckle up your seatbelts and sit tight." Said a voice through the intercom. I looked to the side and saw Percy and Lily in identical positions. Sitting up straight, seatbelts on, eyes wide with fear and the armrests creaking from their hold. I was imitating them too. We three stayed that way for the whole flight. When we landed, Selina had to pry our hands off the armrests. We stumbled out, and got into the car that the camp had supplied. We drove into a forested area and followed directions. We drove down a dirt driveway and saw a beautiful house. We walked in and gasped. There was a living room with a TV, Xbox, Wii and PlayStation with a ton of games. There was a kitchen/dining area with a sacrificial flame for our food burning. The dishes were the magic kind from Camp. There was mini armoury downstairs too. We went upstairs and there were five bedrooms. We looked on the doors and saw some plaques with our names in ancient Greek on the doors. We went into our rooms and gasped. Each had a big window with a crystal hanging in it. There was a desk in each room with a monster-proof laptop and a pouch of golden drachmas. Each of our rooms was in a different colour scheme, mine being dark purple and black. We all unpacked then went downstairs for a meeting. Percy was already looking at the video games in the living room. I sat down on a couch with Annabeth and Lily. Selina sat in an armchair across from us.
"So guys, now that we're all moved in, what do we do?" I asked.
"Well, I've enrolled us all in the local high school under the last name Demi. We start tomorrow" Annabeth said.
"Annabeth, I know that you're an Athena kid, but why do we have to go to school?" Percy whined.
"Because we missed a lot of it because of the giant war. We should finish school and graduate, which is a requirement of the college in New Rome. Also, people would get suspicious if we didn't. Who knows, maybe we'll find the people that we're looking for at the school." Annabeth replied. We all sighed. Once Annabeth had made up her mind, there was no changing it.
"You guys, can we order pizza?" Lily asked. We all agreed that we should celebrate our first day with pizza and a movie night before bed. Surprisingly, I didn't have any nightmares. That was rare. Although, I did have this weird dream where I was walking in the forest and saw red eyes and golden eyes and black eyes watching me. I shook the dream off, thinking that it was probably a pizza-induced dream of madness. We decided to walk to school since it was barely raining. I put on a long-sleeved shirt that said "Rock and Roll Isn't Dead. You Are", a black hoodie, ripped black skinny jeans and some black runners. I wore my camp necklace with some charms from my dad. There was a sword charm that turned into an actual sword, a bow and arrow charm that turned into an actual bow and a quiver of arrows, a charm of two smaller swords that turned into actual swords and a dagger charm that turned into an actual dagger. Percy had his pen, Riptide; Lily had some pencils that turned into knives, Annabeth had some owl earrings that turned into daggers, and Selina had a charm bracelet that had charms that were similar to mine and a charm that turned into her shield. We all set off, and surprise, surprise, there were monsters. Luckily, we were able to quickly turn them into dust. We reached the school and went to the office.
"Hi, I'm Selina. This is Kiki, Percy, Annabeth and Lily. We're the new students from Long Island." Selina said.
"Welcome to Forks! Here are the schedules to your classes, all together like your guardian specified, and a paper for each of you. Get each of your teachers to sign it then return it at the end of class. Have a good day!" The secretary said. Percy and Annabeth held hands and we headed to our first class. I couldn't stop humming "We're off to see the wizard" the whole way until Lily glared at me. I stopped. We walked into our first class, English.
"Hi! We're the new students!" Annabeth said to the teacher, Mr. Berget. Luckily, we didn't have to introduce ourselves. We walked to the empty desks. They were by a girl with gorgeous blonde hair, a girl with really short hair that looked like a pixie and a boy with bronze hair. They all had golden eyes and were crazy beautiful. We sat down and I passed a note to Annabeth. We had decided that we would write notes in Ancient Greek.
You think they're monsters? –K
I don't know. They aren't giving off the right vibe. But the eyes and beauty? Suspicious. –A
What should we do? Want me to stab him with a pencil? ;) –L
Let's just wait until we know for sure. Want to corner them after school? –P
I don't know. Let's talk about it at lunch. –S
"Ms. Demi, could you please read the quote on the board out?" Mr. Begnet asked.
"Which one of us?" I asked.
"You." He replied. I looked at the board and tried to read it, but the letters all swirled around. Stupid dyslexia.
"I'm sorry, I can't." I said.
"What do you mean? Annabeth, you read it!" He replied. The same thing happened. He proceeded to ask all of us demigods. When none of us could answer him, he sent us all to the office for "failure to participate in class" but we were back in five minutes with a note that said "The Demi children will not be punished. They have dyslexia, and they cannot read the board due to this condition. Please see me after school.
-Principal Devon"
We handed him the note then went and sat down. The rest of the classes were pretty uneventful after that, if you didn't count everybody staring at us. There wasn't even a monster attack. Soon, it was time for lunch.
Look, more of the monsters. They look lonely, want to join them? –P
Why not? Have your weapons at the ready though. –S
I want to go on record and say that if we die, I told you so. Let's do it. –A
Ready? –L
Yes. Let us go to our glorious death! –K
We walked up to the table and pulled up some chairs. We sat down and everybody stared at us. That is, until we gave them the "Death Glare".
"Hi, I'm Kiko, this is Selina, Lily, Percy and Annabeth. Who are you?" I asked. They stared. The one with the bronze hair was making a face like he was constipated.
"I'm Alice! This is Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper, Edward, Nessie, and Bella!" The pixie one said. While she was talking, I was laying my pencils out on the table. I decided to be blunt.
"What are you? And why are you here?" I asked in Ancient Greece. They all looked confused.
Not monsters. Well, not Greek monsters. What do you think they are? –K
I don't know. Maybe they are humans? I don't see any Mist. –S
I don't think so. What about their eyes? –A
No idea. Operation Stalk the freaky… Whatever they are? –P
YES! –L
Ok then. Let's ask them some questions about themselves. Like their eyes. And body temperature. :) –S
"So, you guys are all brothers and sisters?" Selina asked.
"We're all adopted siblings. Jasper and Rosalie are twins, Bella, Nessie and Alice are biological sisters, and me and Emmett are biological brothers." Edward answered.
"So, why do you guys all have pale skin and freaky eyes?" Percy asked.
"It's a coincidence." Edward growled.
"And it's also a coincidence that you all have cold skin?" Lily added.
"Why are you even sitting here?" He countered. I was getting an overwhelming sensation of death. I decided to take a guess.
"Because you interest us. We know that you're dangerous, that's why we were sent here after all, to deal with the… Monster situation." I said. Annabeth fist bumped me under the table. Demigods 1, Cullens 0.
"You had better come with us. We can continue this discussion elsewhere." Edward growled. I looked at my companions. They nodded. We all stood up and walked out of the cafeteria, leaving our stuff behind. The Cullens got into their vehicles and we followed in ours. We passed our house and in a few minutes we turned down a dirt driveway and came across a huge house, even bigger than ours.
Be ready guys. I sense more of them. –K
We got out of our car, each of us ready to pull out our weapons at the first sign of them attacking. Suddenly, there was a growl. I turned around.
Aww, Styx. Empousa. Really? –K
I know, I hate them. Do you think that there's enough of them? –L
Nah. Although, you have to admit, tem of them is a bit overkill. –P
We pulled out our weapons and faced them. We circled each other, until they made the first move. One of them pounced, and all Hades broke loose. Long story short, there were ten piles of dust on the ground when we were done. The Cullens looked shocked. We turned around and I stumbled. I looked down at my leg and saw a giant cut. One of the Cullens, Jasper, ran faster than any human should be able to into the house. A few seconds later, another one came out with a first aid kit. I held out one of my swords in a defensive position. All around me, I saw the rest of us doing the same thing.
What do we do? –A
Want me to shock them into next week? –S
Wait. Let me try to talk to them. Chiron did say we would find allies here, maybe this is them. –K
"That's close enough. You can stop right there, Cullen." I said. He looked shocked, and put the first aid kit down.
"We just want to help. Your leg is hurt, you need to go to the hospital. I can help you, I'm a doctor." He said.
"I'm fine. Now, what are you? You aren't human and give off an aura of death. You move way to fast, have golden eyes and skin that is cold and pale." I replied.
"What do you mean? Please, let me help you. I promise that we won't hurt you." He said.
"Swear it on the River Styx. If you do, then you can't break it or you'll die. And I mean really die, not whatever you are right now." I said. They all swore on the River Styx and thunder rumbled in the sky, signalling the oath had been accepted. I sat down, and Annabeth pulled out a flask. The Cullen with the first aid kit came closer.
"That's going to need stitches. We need to get you to a hospital right now." The Cullen said. I laughed.
"This? This is nothing. You can put the first aid kit away pal, I'll be fine in a few minutes." I said. Annabeth went to pour it onto the wound, but the Cullen grabbed her hand.
"You shouldn't be putting anything on it. It'll get infected."
"Let. Go. Of. My. Girlfriend's. Hand. Now." Percy said. The ground started shaking, and I had a feeling that their plumbing was broken. Carlisle let go and she poured the contents onto my leg. I sighed as it worked its magic. Annabeth handed me a piece of ambrosia and I ate it. It tasted like black licorice, my favorite. The Cullens looked shocked as the cut on my leg healed before their very own eyes. I looked at them.
"Soo…. You didn't see anything?" I asked hopefully. Edward shook his head at me.
"You guys have heard the Greek myths, right?" They nodded. "Well, they're all true."
And… First chapter! Yay! You might see another one today or tomorrow, since my mind is literally unable to think of anything but this story right now. So ya… That isn't weird at all. See you guys later!
