Liar, liar, pants on fire!

The name, is Arin Camero. I live with mom, dad died when I was three, but over here no one knows. We moved here when I was five.

After the Greek gods revealed themselves, you know, like all over the world, I told everyone I am a son of Ares. I'm not, but now they all worship me and I'm the one everyone obeys.

I have dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. I am tall and muscled, mostly from going to the gym six times a week. I do a lot of sports and I love to box.

Every single girl wants to date me, even those with a boyfriend already, they just dump him to have a chance with me! I have to admit, I'm a bit of a player. I can't let one woman tie me down for the rest of my life! And they're just gullible and need a strong man. So I play with them a while, then I get bored and dump them. Whatever, I don't do feelings.

I also get to do whatever I want and pick on whomever I want. Those wimpy little nerds are so not important enough for me to pay attention to, all they're good for is to be punching bags.

I was pushing this stupid little nerd I think is called Sean or something when a new babe entered the school. I pushed the nerd into his locker and walked to the babe.

Lemme describe her. She's blonde, so probably a dumb one, honey blonde hair that curls in a ponytail, not even neatly just haphazardly thrown in one. Still beautiful. She looks Californian, great tan. Also, she has muscles like she works out. When she'll date me she has to stop working out that much, a girl should not have muscles. But the weirdest thing about her were her eyes. They were beautiful, but disconcerting. They were grey, pure grey. They screamed of agony and wisdom, which was weird, because she's a dumb blonde and they never get hurt except for broken nails. Whatever, she'll cover the greyness and agony up with some blue contacts or something.

''Hey babe, are you new here, 'cause I think I'd remember someone like you!'' I said seductively.

''Don't call me babe.'' the babe snarled, but her voice was like an angel's. ''Bye.''

She stalked off and walked to the reception. She got her schedule and walked to her locker, which was not even close to mine, bummer.

But I'll get the babe, I always do.

I'll just drop I'm a son of Ares near her and she'll immediately want to date me. Every girl wants to, because a demigod is powerful and interesting.

During Maths I found out that the babe is smart too, so I knew I had to get her. She could just do my homework, and I'd have her as a bonus.

So I dropped the demigod thing. But she didn't take the hint. She acted as if she didn't believe me.
She didn't want to date me immediately.

So I figured that I have to know her before she wants to go out with me. Some babes are a little weird, but I dig her. And she's amazing. Hot, smart, a babe.

She had to introduce herself to everyone in homeroom, which I was luckily in.

''My name is Annabeth Chase and I used to live in San Francisco. Before that I lived in Virginia and New York. Now I'm back, luckily, and I live near my mother. I work for her, to answer your question about why. My father still lives in San Francisco with my stepmother and half-brothers. I go to a summer camp which I love and I have gone there since I was 7.'' Annabeth said and then she sat down.

So I learned that her name is Annabeth Chase. Weird first name, but I can't fault her for her parents' bad taste. And I understand why her last name is Chase, 'cause all the boys chase after her.

We had some new classes since the gods revealed themselves. Ancient Greek Mythology, Ancient Roman Mythology, classes about the Gods, Monster Defence, Modern Mythology. We don't get the actual languages, they're useless. The gods know English after all. Only demigods know Latin and Greek, and nerds obviously. I know some Greek and Latin because I learned immediately after the gods revealed themselves. So people know I can speak Greek, which I sometimes do. I use mostly curses, which makes it more believable.

Whatever.

So after school, I talked to Annie again.

''So Annie…'' I started.

''Do not, ever, call me Annie. I hate nicknames. My name is Annabeth!'' she whispered dangerously low.

''Okay, so Annabeth.'' I said. ''I was wondering what you think about the gods? I obviously wouldn't anger them. But I'm pretty sure that my father, Ares, wouldn't kill me.''

She scoffed.

''Well, I don't think you're a demigod, much less a child of Ares.'' Annabeth said.

Then she stalked off to her car. And I have to admit it's a great car. I wish I could get one like that.

Over the weeks, I continued to flirt with Annabeth. She denied me every time, with some made up boyfriend. I bragged to her about all the monsters I've killed, girls like a man that can protect them after all, and I told her about my adventures.

I don't get why she doesn't just kiss me already. I mean, I'm handsome and I'm a 'demigod'!

Today went a little different than all those other times. I asked her in the middle of the hallway, caging her in by her locker.

''So Annabeth, why don't you and I go to the movies after school. It's Friday and afterwards we can go to my place and we'll have the entire weekend to play. My mother is away to a conference and my father won't mind, seeing as he's a god!''

''No thanks. I'll be going to my boyfriend's place and help him with his homework.'' Annabeth said.

''Come on, dump the mortal.'' I said, getting a little annoyed at her for rejecting me again. ''I'm a demigod, a superior to him.''

''How sure are you that you're a demigod?'' she suddenly asked.

Why would she ask something stupid like that. Everyone knows!

''100% sure, sweetheart!'' I smiled coyly.

''Okay, then which one of the two camps did you go to?'' she asked.

What? Two camps? Does she mean the demigod camp? Must be.

''Hon, there is but only one camp for demigods.'' I said, calling her bluff.

''Who is the most powerful demigod in all of history?''

What the hell is she talking about now? Everyone, even mortals know that one. And why is she asking these questions even?

''Hercules, don't you read?'' I asked, confused.

''And who is the leader of the Ares kids?''

''Me, duh! I've accomplished the most out of all of us, so I deserved it most.'' I said, huffing my chest out a bit in annoyance.

''And who are the leaders of the demigods?''

''The gods. That's the easiest question ever.''

''Did you know, that you got all of those answers wrong?'' she asked fake sweetly.

Wait, what? How could they be wrong?

''There are two camps, and as a son of Ares you should have gone to CHB, the Greek camp. The other one is CJ, the Roman camp. And the most powerful demigod ever to exist would be Perseus 'Percy' Jackson, son of Poseidon, three time hero of Olympus.'' she stated, as if he was more important than Hercules.

''And as for the leader of the Ares kids, I wouldn't've pegged you for a girl.'' she smirked.

Ugh, that is not even true. A girl can never be more important than a guy! So how can a girl lead the children of the god of war himself?

''And the leaders of the camps, well, for CJ they are the praetors, at the moment Reyna and Frank. And the leaders of CHB are officially Mr. D. aka Dionysus and Chiron the centaur. Though CHB has some unofficial leaders, and they are the ones that really lead the demigods. A boy and a girl, the boy being the son of Poseidon, leader of the demigods, all of them, the leader of both the Greek and the Roman demigods. He killed a fury and the minotaur without any training, retrieved the stolen bolt of Zeus and the Helmet of Darkness of Hades. He battled the god Ares and won, sailed the sea of monsters, escaped Circe's island, found the golden fleece on the island of Polybotes, saved a couple of pegasi, one of which is now loyal to only him, he saved Artemis from imprisonment by the titan Atlas the next winter and held the sky, he is the only male that Artemis respects, he travelled through the labyrinth of Daedalus, accidentally exploded a volcano and was thought to be dead. He reappeared at his own funeral, and continued with the quest. He met Daedalus, escaped from Minos, met the god Pan at his passing, saved the camp from destruction by the Titan army and pulled everyone together. The next year, he was the object of the great prophecy. He got the curse of Achilles and defeated the Titan lord of Time himself. The gods offered him immortality but he declined it. Instead he asked for recognition for the demigods that are not claimed and the minor gods, which was meant to prevent wars like the Titan War from happening again.''

I was quiet and didn't say a word. That couldn't be true, no one could do all that. And how would she even know all that?

''I was not yet finished. He got kidnapped by Hera and placed in the Roman camp with amnesia. He there became the leader after going on a quest to save Thanatos in the land beyond the gods. He was a hero again, and he regained his memory. Then he and the other six from the Prophecy of Seven went on the Argo II to the Ancient lands to fight Gaea. In Rome, he tried to save his girlfriend and fell into Tartarus with her. Down there, a lot of monsters and gods attacked them, but they survived. They had two immortal friends down there, who closed the Doors of Death while he and his girlfriend escaped. They were traumatized, but in the end they helped defeat Gaea. After that, they went back into the mortal world.'' she said.

''So, he survived?'' a girl asked her.

''Yes. And the other leader of the Greek demigods is a daughter of Athena. She ran away when she was seven and defeated a cyclops. Years later, a son of Poseidon made it to camp, and she was chosen to go with him on the quest to the underworld to find the master bolt of Zeus. After the quest, they snuck out on the next year, they made it to the sea of Monsters, survived the island of Circe and she even survived the Sirens. At the island of Polybotes she defeated the cyclops and blinded him once again. Then they all made it back to the mortal world. The daughter of Ares that was with them got the fleece back to camp and they rescued some pegasi from the Titan army. After that, during the winter, she was abducted by the titan army and she held the sky. The summer after she lead her first quest, into the labyrinth, and saw her best friend, the son of Poseidon, die. She told Hepheastus what had happened and she went back to camp where they held the funeral which Percy interrupted. They went back into the labyrinth, with a mortal, and they escaped from Daedalus' workshop. They escaped Kronos and were at the passing of Pan. The battle of the labyrinth was devastating, but she had to get herself together because she was the main strategist. The year after, the battle of Manhattan raged and she took a poisoned knife for her best friend. In the end, they won, but at a cost, a lot of lives were lost and everyone was scarred. During the winter, her boyfriend went missing and she joined the search. When they found him, they went on a quest to fight Gaea. She went on a solo quest, the mark of Athena, which children of Athena had been trying to complete for thousands of years. She completed it, and fought Arachne who she beat, but then she fell into Tartarus. After their escape, they had to go on. They had to fight Gaea and the Giants. At home, at camp, they had to fight hordes of monsters to survive and unite the camps. It worked, but she was permanently scarred, with horrible PTSD. Now, she is in the mortal world.'' Annabeth said.

How does she even know all of that? Wait, is she a demigod? She has to be? Shit, she might know I'm not one, never having seen me at the camp or something…

''What is the name of that girl even? Being stupid enough to follow a death quest and fall into Tartarus!'' one of my ex-girlfriends asked Annabeth.

''Her name is Annabeth Chase. I would be that stupid girl.'' Annabeth snarled.

Then she turned back to me.

''And you're no demigod, Arin. A real demigod would know all about my adventures with my boyfriend, and wouldn't try to break up and date one of Aphrodite's favourite ships.''

''You can't be. You said that you have a good relationship with your mother, that you work for her…'' I stumbled.

''I am and I do. I am the official architect of Olympus, and I have to discuss these matters with my mother often. I am one of the few demigods that has a sort of actual relationship with their godly parent. The other one being my humble Seaweed Brain of a boyfriend, Percy. He talks with his father often. Poseidon is known for breaking the rules, he is like water, unpredictable. And so is Percy.'' she snarled at me. ''And now that you made me reveal myself, I have to move schools again, so I can have a sort of normal life. Lucky for me, I can join my boyfriend this time around. He'll be happy, and I may even get to stay at his place, which will help with the PTSD, the nightmares about all the friends we've lost and all the sacrifices we've made, all the horrible things we've seen.''

And with that, Annabeth Chase, the goddess, sorry, half-goddess, that graced our school for a few weeks, left, and no one ever saw her again.
