Short I know but expect more updates since there are two more weeks to my holiday.

Cyber High

Athena ran down the hallways of Cyber Junior High. She was rushing off to cheerleading practice. She may be the most popular girl in school but she certainly wasn't acting like one.

"No running down the hallways Miss Hawk," the principal smiled. Athena was one of the school's most valuable students. It was too bad she was a bit of a scatterbrain and klutz.

"Sorry sir," Athena apologised, "I've got cheerleading practice, so sorry. Yearbook meeting ran late."

The principal sighed, "Very well, we do have the regional cheerleading competition to think of. You as captain had better hurry."

Athena nodded and rushed down the halls again. She was late, again. But it certainly wasn't her fault that she had a Yearbook meeting in the classroom at the opposite end of the school. Typical of George to set that place when he knows that I'm in another room.

"Well, well," I see you're late again," Amy said when Athena ran in.

Amy used to be the most popular girl in school. She was until Athena arrived. Athena knew more gymnastic moves, although she hated gymnastics, Athena was also smarter and more beautiful in nearly everyone's opinion. She shot up to popularity in only two months and she quickly obtained a boyfriend as well.

Athena smiled, "Well, I had a meeting. Sorry I'm late."

"That was why they should have elected me as captain of the cheerleaders," Amy said tossing her hair.

"That's right. And you can give them tips on how to manipulate and use people around or apply makeup," Athena said sarcastically.

"Those are the most important things in life," Amy said, "I heard that your boyfriend Zachary doesn't care though."

"You mean Zach, right?"

For those that are unclear, Zach is indeed Athena's boyfriend. Athena was quite insecure and Zach was well someone who boosted her popularity and has a car. He was in high school which was a good sign for Athena's social life, she could admit that it was easy picking up and guy she wanted but Zach was someone she actually liked who was actually quite smart and athletic which was indeed a rare combination. His only flaw was his possessiveness although it was technically illegal for him and Athena to date when he was eighteen. Oh and also the fact that he wasn't that smart but really, really gorgeous.

"Whatever, let's get practice started," Amy said picking up her pom poms.

"Okay, get into formation AF then," Athena shrugged.

The other cheerleaders who were watching Athena and Amy's little squabble picked up their pom poms when they saw their leader, Athena, pick hers up. The beautiful cheerleaders, although they were a few unattractives that were talented, got into formation.

They lined up in a V shape, Athena was standing in the middle while the girls at the sides cart wheeled to the opposite side and then took their original positions again. After the cartwheels, Athena did a few somersaults in the air and bounded to the front. They formed a pyramid behind her and she jumped to the top of the pyramid easily. Luckily she wasn't afraid of heights, she did another jump in the air somersaulted there and landed on top of the pyramid again and nearly collapsed off the pyramid.

Only after thirty minutes did practice end. "That was a good job," Athena smiled, "Come back again on Monday."

"The regionals are in a week," Amy said. "Don't you think we should have practice everyday."

"It's Saturday tomorrow, do the rest of the math."

"Why don't I lead the practice then?" Amy smirked.

"Do you know how to do this?" Athena smirked right back. She bounded over the vault and did a few gymnastic moves when she was actually using a stimulator which she had invented to bound over the vault and do really complicated gymnastic moves, something which is quite impossible to do unless you're a trained athlete with a strict diet or a genius who invented a stimulator with the help of Foaly.

Amy rolled her eyes. "I am in no mood to demonstrate. And why don't you roll in the ditch while doing that since you're so uncouth."

"Back off Amy," Jaycee snapped. Jaycee was one of the cheerleaders who hung out with a Athena mainly because of cash and popularity. Amy had a clique against Athena but any one who fights the social system is kinda doomed except Amy was special.

"Thank you Jaycee but I think I can handle this by myself," Athena smiled bitterly. Jaycee was famous for sucking up in her opinion. Her only true friends were the fairies, Zach and an average teen called Mary who was in the 'normals' quite similar to Lizzie McGuire. Mary didn't really hang out with her that much since Amy was scaring her away to a group of her own status.

"Why do I have a feeling you don't have real friends?" a voice said while everybody in the gymnasium left.

"When were you so deep Grub?" Athena laughed picking up her things. "At this point I'll rather your brother be my partner."

"Hey I'm just telling it like it is. Plus, my brother is too busy with the Retrieval squad, which I can't really join anymore since I'm too busy with you. And my brother can't do this," Grub smiled. He pulled out three balls and juggled them which went well except it came crashing down on his head.

"Ouch," Athena winced looking at the still shielded elf through her iris cam. "I think your brother can do it better and next time I don't suggest heavy lead balls used for Foaly's machines. Instead use light plastic ones if you can."

"Those were the only balls I could find and no Trouble cannot to that. So, hah."

"You sure?" Athena said sceptically. "Hurry up now. People will think I'm nuts talking to no one."

"Fine we have a job for you. You have to go undercover in Britain. You ready to go?"

"You bet Grub."

Don't forget to review :D
