So yeah, the monster burst into my classroom. It was a monstrous black hound, the size of a car with glowing red eyes. Its fangs were the size of my notebook. Everyone was running and hiding in the far corner of the room, but I stayed in place. For some reason, Zach stayed next to me.
"What the heck!" I yelled. All of the sudden, Zach had a sword in his hand.
"Too soon. It came too soon. What am I supposed to do now?" He muttered. I looked at him, hoping that it turns out I was crazy as he already was. How could I know the hound was just a figment of my imagination? "Eileen, for the love of God, GET DOWN!" Chris yelled at me, effectively making the huge thing look at him. I realized that it was going to pounce on him, and the only person with a weapon was not helping.
I made a split decision. I grabbed Zach's sword and jumped. The sword landed on the monster's neck when I was in mid-jump. My weight, the force I put into the swing, and gravity helped give me enough power to cut off the head of the monstrous oversized dog. Before the body fell to the floor, the whole thing turned to dust. Like sand, it just coated the floor of the classroom. I looked around and Zach was throwing this white powder everywhere.
"What the heck are you doing?" I yelled. He looked up for a moment and I saw he wasn't Zach. He had black hair and green eyes, he was a bit taller and a lot more muscular. I must admit, my first thought was "He's hot!" You know, and then I screamed.
"What, who, where?" I said. I know, I so amazing in stressful situations. "What are covering them with, who are you, and where is Zach?" I yelled. He looked amused, until I lifted the sword. Then he just looked annoyed and scared. "I covering them with a magic powder that will make them forget, my name is Percy, and Zach is right here." He gestured to himself. I knew immediately that he meant himself, but I couldn't fathom how Zach and Percy were the same person. They look so completely different, the only thing they had in common was that I hated them.
"Yeah sure, and I'm really the president!" I yelled. I lifted the sword higher so that it was level with his neck. For all I know, he was also a monster, and he ate Zach. "You know, I don't like you either!" He shouted, catching me off guard. "If you had sucummbed to the potion, we would be done by know! But no, you have to be a powerful demigod, so powerful that it doesn't work on you! It worked on me, Jason, Nico, even Thalia, who swore off boys forever. It worked on my ex-girlfriend! How could you hate me more than my ex-girlfriend?" He asked, clearly confused. "It was a love potion! You tried a love potion on me?" I yelled, surprised about how evil and idiotic he was.
"Well yeah. But the weird thing is, it didn't work. It worked on Jason and Thalia, children of Zeus! It worked on Nico, the only child of Hades!" He yelled. After that, it was question after question while he explained his life. He explained how I was a demigod and how I had to go to this camp for people like me. "Why now?" I asked. That was the only question I had left. He looked stricken for a moment, like I had physically hurt him with my question.
"Campers, demigods, friends have been kidnapped. It started a month ago with a child of Ares. our have been kidnapped already. Once a week, the very same day, but not the ones in camp. We're making sure no one leaves the borders except me, I collect the demigods. Annabeth also goes, using a love potion to help boy demigods get to camp." He said. As I processed this information, I realized something quickly. "It's Monday! The start of the week! What if that hellhound was sent to capture us? We need to go now." I said quickly. We ran for the parking, his sword still in my hand. I was about to ask what was gonna be our ride when I saw the flying chariot. It was bright gold with designs of heroes and monsters engraved on it. It was pulled by two winged horses and driven by a blond girl with stormy grey eyes. She and Percy glared at each other till I broke the awkward silence with an even awkwarder line. "I guess you guys are ex's" I said. She turned to glare at me, but then noticed the sword.
"Why Percy, you never let me hold Riptide." She said with forced politeness. "I didn't give it to her, she stole it! I bet she's a Hermes brat." He said crossley. Now he was in for it!
"Brat! You hypocrite. By the way, in my first battle ever, you did nothing! If I hadn't killed it single-handedly, people would be dead! I took it because you weren't doing anything!" I yelled. Blondie looked impressed that I killed the monster, and Percy just looked embarrassed. "Good job kid. Maybe you're a spawn of Ares. By the way, names Annabeth." She held out her hand invitingly and I shook it.
"Maybe we should go." I said as I hoped in the chariot. Percy hopped after me, muttering about his father gave him the weapon as a present. She flicked the reins and we soared up. We started flying and I started relaxing. I kept the sword in my hand, still watching Percy. One reason is if case he tried to take the sword, the other reason being he is cute. I would have a crush on him, but he is kinda a jerk, so I don't. Not at all. Not in the least.
Then, in the middle of my denying my feelings, Hermes appeared in my chariot. He was in a mailman outfit with a messenger bag over his shoulder. Annabeth kept flying but Percy and I just stared at him.
"Well hello." I said, nervously. I mean, there is potential he might be my father.
"Hi. Now, Percy, the Gods are discussing battle plans..." He went on talking to Percy. I sat down, uninterested. When he finished, I stopped him right before he disappeared. "Wait, Lord Hermes, are you my father?" I asked, desperate. He looked me up and down, looking thoughtful. "Well, there is a possibility, but I don't know for sure." He said. Then, just as I was feeling disappointed, three things happened at once.
Percy grabbed the sword from me, Hermes disappeared, and Annabeth swerved causing me to fall out the chariot into open air and to my death.
"What the heck!" I yelled. All of the sudden, Zach had a sword in his hand.
"Too soon. It came too soon. What am I supposed to do now?" He muttered. I looked at him, hoping that it turns out I was crazy as he already was.

"What, who, where?" I said. I know, I so amazing in stressful situations. "What are covering them with, who are you, and where is Zach?" I yelled. He looked amused, until I lifted the sword.
