I was about to punch Anthony on the face when Angelica stopped me. "Let's just go Nico. He's not worth fighting with." She made a face to me that said 'You're going to get in trouble too.' I didn't care if I got in trouble but seeing her serious face persuaded me otherwise. We started to walk out when Anthony asked, "Why do you keep going out with other stupid guys?"

"I moved on Anthony! I can't go back to you after you cheated on me!" Angelica screamed. "And don't tell me that she moved on you because I was there when you kissed her before the two of looked like two intertwined snakes!" Two intertwined snakes… That reminded me of George and Martha. If they looked like them … Ew, that's just gross.

"I didn't like her and dumped her. That's why I want to come back to you but you don't let me." Some people were now looking at us, noticing their little discussion. One guy was eating popcorn while watching us.

"I'm a person, Anthony not a toy. My heart isn't rental. I'm never going back to you. You're a bastard!"

Anthony who looked like Apollo's red holy cow, gripped her hand really hard that made her flinched. "Fine, I hope you go to hell with your little gothemo." Then, he pushed her hard down to the floor.

I managed to catch her before she crashed headfirst to the floor. "I think going in hell is better than being with you." I angrily said. Well, in Elysium, Isle of the Blest and my room anyway. I put Angelica beside, stood up and motioned him to fight me. Don't worry people, I won't kill the asshole.

He cocked his head and boasted. "Hah! You think you could fight me? I'm the captain of the karate club."

"Don't worry. I am a great fighter, even if I wasn't; I don't think you can pass the chance of bullying someone."

Without a warning, he punched but all he hit was air. I was too fast for him. I ducked and punched him in the stomach, which made him grab his stomach. "That was for Angelica." I said. Then I kicked his face so hard that it made him fly backwards. "And that was for my handsome face."

I know it looks easy and it really was. Not that I'm demeaning karate, it's a good fighting style and all but a demigod versus a mortal in a fist fight? Demigod will obviously win unless that demigod wanted humiliation.

I guess that really caught everyone's attention, even the lunch lady. Seeing that I just defeated the captain of the karate club, they looked awestruck. I had enough attention for a half day so I helped Angelica up and tried to walk out of the cafeteria again. Note the word 'tried', I stopped on my tracks because I sensed danger (yes, it's like 'my spider sense are tingling' but think of it as my sixth sense.) behind me. When I turned around, Anthony was going to whack my head with a steel bar that I'm guessing he yanked loose from the lunch table. I didn't have time to put up my guard so I closed my eyes and braced for it to come.

The fact is; it didn't come. When I opened my eyes, I saw him slide to the other side of the cafeteria and someone was standing in front of me.

The person had black hair and was wearing a black tattered leather jacket. I'm guessing he's a she because she's wearing a silver hair band. It really stands out from her punk clothes. When she turned around, the first thing I saw was her electric blue eyes…

"Thalia?" I exclaimed. I'm guessing that she's the 'big surprise' Percy was talking about and the other transfer student the teachers kept mentioning. Great, this is just GREAT! If you didn't know, I was being sarcastic.

"Hey, Ghost Boy, you should never turn your back on your enemies." she said with a commanding voice.

"I guess I forgot Pinecone Face." I said irritatingly, "What are you doing here? I thought you were with… with your friends." I couldn't ask her flat out because all eyes and ears were on us and I'd rather not say it.

"I'll tell you later, but first…" She said.

She went up in front of a shaking Anthony, pulled him up by his collar and said. "If I catch you messing with this maiden here again, I'll personally KILL YOU!" She had her death glare on.

She let go and walked up to us. "Maiden?" I whispered.

"I guess Lady Artemis' choice of words caught up with me." She shrugged.

We helped Angelica to the nurse's office. She was really distressed by the event.

"Thanks. You know each other?" Angelica asked.

"She's an old camp mate." I said. "Thalia, this is Angelica. Angelica, Thalia." They shook each other's hand. "We'll leave you now so you can have time to recover." Angelica nodded then Thalia and I got out of the nurse's office.

"So… nice girlfriend you got there." She began.

"She's not my girlfriend. I just met her." I snapped. "So, why are you here and not with your little friends?"

"They're called the Hunters. We're looking for new sisters so Lady Artemis assigned me here in New York. She told me to study here and think of it as a break."

"Those poor souls..." I muttered.

"What?" She asked.

"Nothing." I said rather quickly. I'm guessing she really heard me say it but just wants to make sure because she narrowed her eyes at me.

"I know you don't like us around." She curtly said.

"Especially, YOU." I thought.

"I don't like you either but don't worry Ghost Boy. I won't bother you and I'm only here for 2 months."

These 2 months are going to be a loooong time.

There's a reason for everything in the next chapter! (I hope it's enough.) Anonymous or not, review please so that I could know if it's good or not and have a boost in morale :D.

One word is enough.
