First chapter! I know it seams slow to start but im trying to hold back my need to write everything but it leaves to much words and not enough story.

Disclaimer: I highly doubt uncle rick would write fanfic and if he does, please let me know!

CHAPTER 1

"Come on, Nico! I swear if you don't hurry up, I'll kill you personally," Piper yelled from afar as I slugged behind. I was not up for this new 'experience'

"Shut up, I'm coming!" I shouted back, picking up my pace.

It was hot and we had just suffered what felt like the longest bus ride of our lifes. Today was the start of the new school for us and I can tell, even under all that cheer and excitement, Piper was just as scared and nervous like the rest of us. I could tell the sun was mocking us as it continued to smile down at us. Great! Just what I needed, to be sweaty and hot on the first day of school. I might be Italian, but it doesn't mean I don't like the whiteness of my skin.

As we aprouch the school, we all stop and look up. I didn't even need to look behind me, I could tell the rest of the people following us stoped as well. I even had one girl run into me. The school was huge. Easily two stories tall maybe even three and was stark white. Every thing about the school screamed rich prep kids. Not a single imperfection could be seen. Every blade of grass to every leaf on the trees were perfect. The students that attened the school originally even had an aura about them that screamed perfection, so how the hell are we supposed to compete?

"Holy…" Hazel's voice trailed off on to be picked up by Piper's.

"Shit!" and I knew everyone was thinking the same thing.

A moment of silence fell over the group as we stood there, trying to take in everything. The silence held on until I spoke, "Well… I guess we go in the the gym and wait…" I had to clear my thoat a few times just to finish the sentence.

People slowly followed us as we lead the way to where we thought the gym was. We only waited for a few mintues, thinking we were in the wrong place until a teacher with a mic welcomed us and told us were to go. The five of us clumped together and got our timetables and looked over with them with one another. By the time we got it all figured out, I only had one class with my sister and two others with Piper and Reyna. Sadly, I had none with Annabeth while everyone else had at least one with her.

"Well, it looks like I have first period with Piper for..." my voice trailed off while I tried to find thr class through the cluster-fuck of information bombarding my page. "English," could be a worse first class, I thought to my self.

With that, we went on our separate ways to atttened our first class. I wasn't surprised when there wasn't anyone following us for two reasons; first, we were probably lost and not going anywhere close to our class and second, even though our school had several hundred students to begin with, some moved, some switched school all together after the fire, some became home schooled, and even with several hundred all together, it only made about fifty per grade without all the 'drop outs'.

By the time we figured out where the hell we were going by trying to read the map and instructions given to us, we guessed we missed an easy thirty minutes, so we persumed we had missed about half of the class. We shared a nervous glance at one another, speaking without words, daring one another to knock the door first. In the end, it was desided via rock paper scissors. About a minute-and-a-half later, Piper was left in the dust and had to knock on the door due to my amazing powers of pointless games.

We waited. We could here the silence that had fallen apon the class that was going on before us. We looked at on another before turning our attention back to the door. The door clicked and swung open. Piper and I knew we weren't as tall as others, but the man that opened the door towered over us.

"Ahh, you must be the new students! We were just about to send a search party out to find you guys," the man gestured us into the class room and we followed. I allowed Piper to take the lead on this one.

"You almost had to," I muttered under my breath as we were being brought in. Piper snickered at me before we faced the class side-by-side.

So many eyes were on me and I could feel the heat rising in my ears. I was trying so hard not to pass out that I almost missed when the teacher introduced himself to us and asked us our names.

"Piper," Piper replied with a smile. She didn't exactly like announcing her last name, so she usually left it with a first name.

I guess she could tell I didn't like the attention turning to me after her, so she nudged me when I went silent for just a little to long, "di Angelo. Nico di Angelo," I mummbled just loud enough to be legible.

After a couple of seconds of uncomfortable shifting from on foot to another, the teacher, Mr. Chiron, coughed to brake the silence and pointed out pur seats. Luckily, we were seated next to one another. Unfortunately, it was the back, so we had a sea of heads and hair blocking our view. From the looks we received, I knew this was gonna be a long day. I slouch, trying to stay under the radar and mumble, "great."

Hopefully it didn't suck so much. Next chapter will have more characters hopefully *awkward laugh* Kitty out!
