Nobody likes rivals but all of sudden, the 7 teenagers are facing 7 other teenagers who look and act EXACTLY LIKE THEM! Could they have some connection with Cronus or are they just kids who hate the original guys? The team is about to find out the true meaning of love, hate and frustration.

First Sense of Unusual Air

"Did you hear? Seven new students are coming to our school!" Atlanta pulled up a chair so she could sit down.

"Yes, I did," Theresa laid down her comb and ticked off her fingers. "2 girls and 5 boys, all from outside New Olympia."

Jay got up. "Hm, that's an unusual coincidence."

"What do you mean?" Herry asked, devouring some poor cookies and brushing crumbs off his chin and shirt.

"7 new kids are coming to Olympia High. There are 2 girls and 5 boys. There are 7 of us; 2 girls, 5 boys." Jay pointed out.

Archie didn't see what was wrong. "So?"

Jay sighed, amazed on how slow this info was travelling. "Isn't it a bit…strange? The exact number of us is coming to this school."

"Jay's got a point," Theresa nodded.

"To you, Jay's always got a point!" Atlanta cracked. The others, minus Theresa and Jay, laughed along.

Theresa's cheeks flamed brightly which nobody seemed to take notice. "Well, it's true," She insisted. "The numbers are rather strange. Should we talking to Hera about it?"

"I've been thinking about that idea…and I dunno," Odie piped up. "I mean, Hera might know what's going on and tell us. On the other hand, what if Hera's being impersonalized?"

"Getting a bit creative, aren't you, Odie?" Archie nudged his friend.

"Archie's got a point," Atlanta got up from her chair. "You worry too much. Let's just greet these people and see if there's anything suspicious going around."

Theresa looked at her crush. "What do you say, Jay?"

"I think both Atlanta and Odie have good pros and cons-" Jay started but Neil interrupted.

"Why don't we just put this to a vote?" He cried, combing his hair. "I think that's how policemen elect their prime minister."

Odie groaned. "Not just policemen but people too, Neil." Atlanta shook her head. What a jerk, she thought. He can't tell the difference between people and policemen.

"That was lame, Neil," Archie added. "Really lame,"

The next morning…

"When were they supposed to arrive again?" Herry asked.

Theresa checked her expensive watch. "After lunch…around 1:00. About 5 minutes from now."

Atlanta crossed and uncrossed her legs as she, her friends and the other people who came to see the new kids, waited nervously in the hallway. "They sure are slow." Neil burst out loud after a long pause.

"OH and that may just be because it's still 3 minutes till 1:00." Archie pointed to the huge school clock looming over their heads.

"2," Jay corrected him, watching the second hand tick by.

"Aren't you guys just excited?" Artemis asked, walking up to them.

Atlanta raised an eyebrow. "You're perky,"

Persephone smiled. "Unusually perky," She said. "We're just glad some new kids are here."

Odie looked at them. "Oh, so nothing strange is going on?" The two goddesses (disguised as teachers) blinked. "Well," Odie added, seeing that the goddesses didn't understand. "There are 5 boys, and 2 girls coming to the school, right?"

Artemis nodded. "Uh-huh,"

"But there are 5 boys of us," Jay finished, getting up from leaning on the wall to lean on a locker next to Theresa "and 2 girls of us. Isn't that just…strange?"

Neither Persephone nor Artemis could answer because at that moment, a boy yelled. "Hey guys, they're coming!"

All eyes of the seven descendants (along with the others) shot towards the huge clock. The second hand was ticking unusually slowly to the number 12 at the top, showing that there was 15 seconds away from 1:00.

Theresa rolled her eyes. "Oh come on, they aren't going to arrive exactly at 1, you know."

"Theresa's got a point," Jay peeled his eyes from the clock and, having no place to stare at, darted around the front hall, trying to find an interesting thing to look at. A couple of popular girls were whispering eagerly about something as when his eyes darted across them, they screamed with delight and started giggling uncontrollably.

Archie, who noticed this, grinned and muttered under his breath "Girls". Atlanta, even though she was also a girl, laughed at this.

"5 seconds," Herry's eyes didn't leave the clock even though Theresa said that the new students weren't going to come exactly at 1:00. "4…3…2…1…"

Bang!

OoooOoooOoooOoooOoooOoooO
