Percy Jackson and the Olympians…

Chapter 1

School is boring. I can't really concentrate… It's a good thing I'm smart. Hey! I'm not bragging! Ok… maybe I am…. I have to say… I'm too prideful. Anyway, today's a Monday… Yes, everyone's horror! And guess what?! There's PE!! I'll be de-

" Class, there will be no PE lessons today. We have a new student today." My most favourite teacher said. Her name is Miss Lee. She's Asian and she has to be the most beautiful person! Her black hair is so silky and her black eyes look like they know something but wouldn't tell you.

Wait a minute… no PE?! I couldn't stop myself and I jumped up from my sit, pump my fist in the air and shouted,

" Yes!!! No PE!!! This has got to be the best day of my life!!" Everyone in class started laughing. I blushed but I still smiled at everyone except for one girl.

" Good for you, Mist. You won't get your head hit by a ball today." She sneered at me. This lovely, big-boned girl is Lara. She has dark blonde hair and cerulean eyes. She's quite pretty if it weren't for the scowl and all that.

" Now, now, class. We should welcome our new student. Come in, Mr. di Angelo." Everyone turned their heads at the new kid. He has silky black hair and olive skin. His eyes are black.

" Now, class, give him a warm welcome. Why don't you introduce yourself, Nico?"

" My name is Nico di Angelo." He said before looking expectantly at Miss Lee.

" Alright, um, you may sit next to…. no wait, you may sit in front on Miss Adara Mist. Raise your hand, Dara." That's my nickname. Well, I did as teacher asked. As he went over to his new seat, I looked at his appearances.

He looks popular. But not that nice looking. He has a bad boy aura around him. I wonder…he would be popular amongst the girls in no time. Even I think he's cute. Oh wait a minute! What did I just thought?

" Can you stop staring at me?"

" Huh?" I looked and saw Nico looking at me. I blushed. " Sorry. I'll stop."

That stupid boy! He made me look stupid! He's evil! Ok…. I think I'm going too far now…

After school,

Everything in school flies by too fast… Sigh…

I wonder… how many girls have crushes on him now?

Nico's P.O.V

Stupid father of mine! Sending me to a mortal school like that! I heard some weird rumbling. I better cool down the thoughts. Father will be angry. But how could he just send me here.

He wants me to prove myself. By staying here for a year without making any trouble. This is going to be difficult. I wish Bianca was here… I forgave Percy last year. The Labyrinth. That place was really dangerous.

I wonder how long I can stay in this school. Let me think what happened today.

(Flashback)

I walked into class and saw everyone looking up at me, expectantly. They wanted to test me. To see how is my reaction. I caught some of them staring at me especially that Mist girl. Ironic of her to be called that. It's not like she could see through it.

But she does look pretty compared to the other girls in that Sunny Academy School. That's the name of the school. Weird, isn't it? Anyway, back to the girl. Adara Mist. She has red hair that is shoulder length.

No fringe, well her fringe is as long as her hair. Slightly wavy. Her eyes are misty green. If you can understand what I mean. She's too weird for my liking. But there's something about her… She seems… different.

The whole went by so fast. It was strange. The girls paid attention to me…The guys look like they wished to kill me. Sigh… what have I gotten myself into? Father, I hope you're happy down there with my misery!

(End Flashback.)

I was never good with crowds. I'm a loner. Well, now I am… My fatal flaw…It's too dangerous to be around others.

I best get to making dinner. Instant noodles. Can I die from eating this every day? I wonder… I don't know how to cook after all.

Later that night,

A doorbell rang. I got up from my couch and answered the door. To my surprise, I saw Adara. She seemed to have a cheerful and happy aura about her.

" What is it?" I asked.

" Err… sorry to bug you and all but you left this at school." Her innocent eyes looked into mine. I looked down at the dagger. It should be disguise as a pen. A gift from Daedalus.

" Why did you bring a dagger to school, Nico?" I stared at her, shocked.
