Hey! I'm writing a story that I just couldn't wait to do. I hope you like it. For any new readers, I have two other just Percy Jackson stories: Goode Love and Surprise. Again, I hope you like this new story.


Sadie's POV


Hullo, Sadie here. If you heard about lots of destruction, or racket maybe, in New York, that would be our fault. Well, ours and the others, meaning demigods. It's a crazy story, but I think you can take it.

It started the first day of school. I was finally going to high school! I was actually kind of excited. I may not have seemed like it, since I was yelling at my brother, but I was. In my defense, I was only yelling, because he was being slow.

It was his first day of going to regular school since he was eight. He's sixteen now. He's kinda out of practice. [Ouch, Carter! Take a joke, gosh.]

As we ran out the door, with my boyfriend Walt; Carter's girlfriend, Zia; and a few other initiates, to Carter's car. Surprising? Yes. It was a gift from our father/ Egyptian god, Osiris. Confusing? Well, you see, the Egyptian gods, from the myths and stuff, are real. They host mortals with the blood of the pharaoh. Still confusing? Too bad. [Carter's saying I should give you more information. Well sorry, Carter. I'm not a living encyclopedia like you.]

When we got to the new school that we were going to, there was twenty minutes left until school started. Wow. We left at least an hour early. Then again, we did go from Brooklyn to Manhattan to get to school in Carter's slow driving. [What? Come on, Carter. You were driving at most thirty miles per hour. Okay, fine. Forty.]

We were going to a school called Goode High School. What a weird name for a school. Also the banners that were hung were super phony, like: This is going to be a Goode year. What nerd came up with that?

As we walked up the steps, I saw a couple of boys that looked like twins, except one was shorter than the other. They were planning something (obvious because they were in a two person huddle) and kept looking back at us. I caught the short one's eye. It had a sparkle of mischief. At that point, I knew they were planning a prank. On us, possibly (or Carter, that makes much more sense).

As we walked in the office, Walt looked at me. "Oh, no," he said.

"What?"

"You're up to something. I can tell from the look in your eye. You're not planning a prank on Carter again, are you?"

"No. I'm thinking of a way to prevent that. I saw a couple of boys out there who looked like they were planning a prank. I wanna get them first."

Walt shook his head. "It's your first day of high school and you're already going to get in trouble," he said, probably knowing he couldn't change my mind.

"Don't worry," I said. "I promise I won't get you too involved. You do know you are getting involved somehow, right?" I asked. He sighed and nodded. "Good," said, then kissed him.

"No PDA," an initiate, Julian, said. I smiled.

"You don't think I don't know who you have a crush on, do you?" I said as I pushed him into Cleo, then looked back at Walt like I didn't do anything. He shook his head and smiled.

We entered the office to see a pretty office lady sitting behind a desk. She had brown hair in a bun, except for two little sausage curls on either side of her face. She looked up at us. "Hello," she said cheerfully while smiling. "Names?"

"Sadie Kane and Walt Stone," I answered for both of us.

The lady printed out some papers and handed them to us. "Here are your locker numbers, combinations and your schedules. If you have any questions, just ask. Welcome to Goode High. Oh yeah, and my name is Ms. Templeton," she said. She was so sweet, I felt bad for her, because she had to work here. [No Carter. Who chooses to work at a high school?]

We went through the doors and found our lockers. I already heard whispers of gossip. I don't really care about gossip. They can say what they want, even if its true or not. As I got my locker open and shoved my books in, I noticed the two boys again. I took out my notebook, since we were just going to homeroom, and walked to room 304.

When I got there, I saw Cleo. I smiled and sat down next to her. She looked at me and smiled, but then frowned again.

"I have to talk to you, Sadie," she said.

"About what?" I asked.

"Well, I saw a group of kids who seem stronger than other teenagers. They seemed to be having some kind of family reunion or something. I think they may be magicians like us."

"Are any of them in this class?"

"Two. I suspect they are the youngest of them."

"Who are they?" At that time the late bell rang. Cleo still pointed out two people. One of them looked a lot like Anubis, with black hair, deep brown eyes, and pale skin. The only difference was that this kid doesn't seem to smile a lot. The other one had curly, brown hair, (kinda like Carter's) and a goofy smile. He seemed to be trying to bug the kid that looked a lot like Anubis.

"I'm going to try to talk to them, so I can learn more about them," I told her. Cleo nodded and got her book out.

I went over to the two boys, and sat in the chair in front of the boy with a goofy smile. "Hi. My name's Sadie and-" I tried to say.

"Hi Sadie. My name is Leo and this party pooper here is Nico," the boy with a goofy smile, or Leo, said.

"I swear, Leo, if you don't stop bugging me and calling me names, I will strangle you with your own tool belt," Nico, the mini Anubis, said. [Come on, Carter It's not his permanent name. Gee.]

I laughed. "Does he go every where with his tool belt?" I asked.

"Yes. It makes a perfect threat, too. He would marry his tool belt if he could," Nico said.

I smiled. "I'll keep that in mind," I said. Leo looked so scared, he backed away. It was hilarious. "So, do you guys know the two kids who look like twins, and look like they'll cause a lot of mischief? "

"I think you're thinking of the Stolls. Yeah, they're not twins, just brothers. Travis is the older, taller one, and Connor is the younger, shorter one," Leo said.

"You talk a lot," I told him. I heard Nico snicker. I looked at him, and tried to read his expression, but it was unreadable. "So, do you think I could out- prank them?"

Leo started laughing so hard, he got weird looks from people, but he was probably used to that. "Um... The Stolls are the master prankers of the school. No one has ever out-pranked them. EVER. like you would have a chance. I bet you five bucks you couldn't," Leo said annoyingly.

"Deal," I said.

"What?"

"I take your bet. If I win, you give me five bucks. If you win, I'll give you five bucks."

"And a kiss."

"I have a boyfriend."

"On the cheek."

"No."

"It was worth the try. Deal."

We shook hands. The bell rang and I got up to go to first period. My mind was filling with ideas to prank them. [Yes, my brain was working. Stop laughing, Carter]
