Thank-you to all reviewers from chapters 8 & 9. Sorry for the delay. My computer was not working for a few days here's the story!

Annabeth's P.O.V.

"Percy!" I yelled as a wave of water splashed me Thalia, and Nico.

"Sorry. I guess I used too much force," he was laughing so I knew it was a joke. Thalia struck the ground wit lighting and Nico cause a crack to appear in the dirt.

"Guys, you're going to cause a 'natural' disaster," I scolded.

They stopped and Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked towards us.

"Can we sit with you?" Hermione asked looking at us. "Why are you three all wet?"

"None of your business!" Thalia snapped then ran off to the castle.

"Did I say something wrong?" Hermione asked. We shook our heads and the trio sat down.

"You know, Thalia's been acting weird lately," Percy said.

"Do you not remember a little detail called her best friend tried to kill her?" I asked

"I will never get used to that fact," Percy said. I saw Rachel approaching us.

"So? How are you and why are you wet?"

"We angered a certain sea king's son."

"Again?"

"What's going on?" Hermione asked.

"We call Percy sea king's son because he's obsessed with the water," I explained then headed to dinner with Nico, Rachel, and Percy.

At Dinner Hermione's P. O. V.

"Guys, they're a little different. So what?" Harry told us. We'd been discussing the American exchange students.

"You're probably right, Harry," I said then went back to eating.

"Probably right about what?" someone said. I turned around and saw it was one of the exchange students that I hadn't really talked to. She had longish red hair and greenish eyes.

"I'm Rachel. I didn't stay with my friends because I had to finish summer school."

"Why would it matter if you were coming to Hogwarts?" Harry asked.

"Because, my dad said I had to finish before I could come here."

The girl, Rachel, sat with us and soon people were talking to her in ancient Greek.

"Do you speak any Ancient Greek?" she asked me.

"No. I thought you were Greek."

"My friends are. I didn't even know how to say hello until last week when I started reading about it."

I nodded then turned back to Harry and Ron.

"Why is Thalia so tempermental? Ron asked her with his mouth full.

"Ron! Don't be rude and chew with your mouth closed!" I reprimanded.

"I don't know I just know that their family is queite large and pretty close."

We finished eating then headed to our dorms where we saw a message,

'Beware half-bloods Gaea will rise'

The exchange students looked like they were going to pass out.

"Chill, we know how to fix this. Harry do you still have the sword?"

"No. I gave it back to Dumbledoore."

"Alright. We'll talk to him tomorrow. We headed to bed and I slept soundly.
