Hi. A. Narumi here posting chapter one. The Percy Jackson people will be in the next chapter. I don't know when the next chapter will be posted. Work has been murder lately and other things are going on.
Here's the full plot/summary:
Devin Hikari has once again moved back to New York and hoped things would be different this time. He's eighteen, a senior in a new high school so why shouldn't things be different? And he got his wish. First he has a Science teacher that doesn't care and seems to hate all of the students and like to look at Wine magazines. But thats nothing compared to the History teacher, that man is a walking shiny disco ball rainbow. The principals are also weird. A man in a wheel chair he seemed to be over 500 years old and a women who seems to be able to kill you with one strike and likes rugs. He sometimes wishes he could bring his box with him to school. And that's just the staff.
Somehow he caught the attention of two groups and they keep asking about his family. And to make things even better monsters, demons and creatures keep Attacking! Everything seems to be pointing at him for the cause. The problem is, He doesn't know why!
One group says his probably half god while the other says he's either half angel or demon.
So instead of Trentell High School he now attends Half Blood High.
Devin unlocked the door to the apartment flat and sighed. How many times has he been here? Too many to the misfortune.
He kicked the door opened and looked around the room with a sigh. Not much had changed in the last eight months.
Same poorly decorated living room with couch, two sitting chairs, t.v and table. The hard wood floors needed to be cleaned, nothing a good sweep and mob couldn't fix.
Too bad he didn't want to do it. And yet he knew he would give in within the span of three days and do it.
Rubbing his eyes with one hand he threw his bag onto the couch. Might as well check the kitchen damage.
Said room wasn't bad. Light scrub on the counters and it would be OK. Well for his taste anyways. Not like any friends are coming over. The stove, fridge and microwave were still in good shape. Pantry looked good also.
He checked to make sure there were still dishes, cups, plats, bowls, forks, spoons and knifes.
Next came the cooking instruments: Pots, pans, cooking sheets and measuring items.
Everything seemed to be good and in place.
He didn't need to check to see if there was food anywhere he already knew there wasn't. He already gotten something to eat on the way over. He'd go shopping tomorrow, he needed to go out looking for a job anyways. Hopefully that restraunt was still hiring. He doubted it since that was over six months ago.
But there was one thing he did need to check though.
He quickly walked to the bedroom, luckily it was a one bedroom place, the door was unlocked. He didn't know if that was a good or bad thing since when he left he left it unlocked. So that meant either no one had been here or someone has and forgot to lock it. He hopped it was the first one.
Opening the door he looked around his old room with a small smile. This room hadn't changed at all. The same Miyavi poster hung above the unmade bed. The table still had the lava lamp. It had been a gift from a really good friend. "Come now my challenged friend. You'll enjoy the seeing the groovy colors." She had said earning a punch in the arm. She was the only one that could make jokes like that. Well other than his brother. Who I haven't seen or heard from in almost five years. Oh well. He got on his knees by the bed and flipped up the covers and reached under. After hitting the box he smiled again and pulled it out. Rubbing the lid he chuckled and the memory of telling his friend about what was inside it. "Your beyond paranoid. But its cute i guess." "Yeah like I'm going to take advise from a cradle robber." "Two years!" He slowly opened it and smirked. Maybe he was paranoid but at lest he felt safe. He gently ran his hand over each dagger. There were four in total and knew how to use them. He didn't know why he felt like he needed them. There was nothing out to get him. No monsters under bed, in the closest, no night creatures. He closed it and put it back where it belonged.
"oh baby when you talk like that you make a woman go
ma-"
"you messed with my phone again?" He answered his cell phone with instead of hello.
"Of course I did. Before you got on the plane." Was her response.
"Why?'
"Because. I think it's the perfect ringtone for me. Guess your in now if you're picking up. Anyways. How was the trip? And your old-new home?"
"Good I guess. Slept most of the time." He sighed laying down on the bed. "House is still the same. Taylor said no one had lived here since I left. And after looking around I guess he's right."
"The rest of your stuff should get there by tomorrow, Monday or Tuesday. Sorry I didn't realize it would take this long."
"Are you kidding me! Don't say sorry. You've done so much for me, you and your boyfriend. Helping me pack, shipping my things, paying for my travel, money for dinner, shopping and paid the rent for two months in advance. Do you know how awesome that is? You are beyond amazing. I swear if you weren't already head over heals in love I'd marry you myself."
She laughed. It had only been two days since they saw each other but he missed her already. And her boyfriend.
Devin, Lea and her boyfriend Kenji were all close friends. Kenji was actually the youngest out of them and Devin the oldest. He was a year older then Lea and Lea two years older then Kenji and yet he seemed to catch her eye. Soon they ended up together and quickly fell in love and also never seemed to let Devin to feel left out. Lea and Kenji's friends liked to pick on the two and Devin did also when it was just them.
Lea had once said she would never date someone younger then her and now she was planning her life with someone who'd two years younger.
"What about Kenji? He helped also."
"Fine. I'll cheat on you with him."
"Are you trying to tell me something?" She joked.
"No. I'm not my brother." He glared at the roof. He knew she heard it in his voice.
"I'm sorry Dev. Look lets just change the subject. When do you start school?"
"Thanks. Umm Wednesday I believe. No school Monday, going in Tuesday to get set up. Might start Tuesday after that though. Haven't decided yet. It's funny. Old town, old place and yet a new school."
"Your going to be fine. New school, new people. No more jerks."
"Yet. L I gotta go. Going to take a shower then bed. Again thanks for everything. I owe you guys so much."
"Alright. Love you."
"Got it."
Old town. Old place. New school. New people. No jerks. Sounds good. Maybe being back isn't so bad. isn't like anything extreme is going to happen. It's just High school.
"JACE GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND LETS GO!" Isabelle yelled pounding on Jace's bedroom door.
Alec sighed leaning back against the wall. If Jace didn't hurry they'd be late for their ride and then they'd have to walk. The dark hair teen was not having that.
"ALRIGHT!" Jace said throwing opening his door and stepping out. "I'm ready, lets go."
Isabelle and Alec put up there bags shaking their heads and started heading down to the front door.
"Why can't your boyfriend be fashionably late." Jace grumbled. "And let us sleep."
"Because one: He can't. He doesn't want to get in trouble on the first day. Two: I already get up early and Three: He likes pissing you off." Alec answered with a shrug. "And Izzy he said he'd have coffee for you."
"Good." She said with a yawn.
"Still don't like it." Jace muttered
"Would you have rathered getting up and going with Mom? She was up and out an hour before us. And at lest he's giving us a ride. Trust me he hates this as much as we do."
"Sometimes I hate our jobs. Why can't we just kill the thing and sleep instead of this."
"Because Jace," Alec sighed again. "We don't know what it is. So we have to investigate. Us as students, Mom as assistant Principal and Magnus as a
"Teacher. I know. But still, a High School?"
What do you think? Review Please. It'll make my niece very happy.
