As Annabeth approached Percy, he tried to pretend that he didn't see her. That seemed to work until she got there.
"Where have I seen you before?" Annabeth asked when she reached me.
"I don't know," Percy responded. "Maybe we've seen each other outside of school before? Like at a grocery store or something?"
"Maybe….." Annabeth responded before walking away to Percy's relief. He really didn't want to talk to her at the moment.
He quickly walked out of school and went back to see Thalia.
"Hey Kelp Head!" Thalia said as I approached her.
"Hey Pinecone Face!" I replied as if I were being nice for once. Thalia and I being nice to each other is like a blue moon. It barely happens! Well, a blue moon happens every month, so how about like a leap year. That works way better.
"...Percy! Come on Percy! I know you can hear me!" Thalia pretty much shouted. Stupid ADHD….
"Oh! Thalia hey. Yeah, I can hear you" I said. "Sorry about that!"
She rolled her eyes. She does that all the time and I find it very annoying. "Well then why did you come over here?"
"Well to say hi? Is it illegal to say hi to your cousin who you are trying to protect so that they don't die?" She rolled her eyes again. Why does she do this? Her rolling her eyes is soooo annoying. She does it all the freaking time!
"Well? Is that it?" She said pretending that she didn't want to see me.
"Yup! Pretty much! And…. Well, I guess that's it" I replied to her. I didn't really have any other reason.
"Well then what are you still doing here?" She said sarcastically. "It's not like I want to see you." Classical Thalia.
"Okay, bye then!" I said pretending to walk away.
"I was just kidding you know!" Thalia shouted behind me.
"Were you though?" I shouted back in a fake annoyed voice.
"Nope!" She replied then went back to what she was doing. Weirdo.
I was walking down a hallway and ran into someone. Quite literally. We slammed into each other from not paying attention where we were going. I blame this on my ADHD. Annabeth also could, because I remember her telling me that she also had ADHD along with Dyslexia, which is also something we both have.
"Oh my goodness! I am so sorry!" I said quickly.
"It's alright, I wasn't watching where I was going." Came a voice I once knew and loved. I ran into Annabeth! Don't you guys think that I have the best luck in the entire world!
"Is it true that you have amnesia?" I blurted out, they mentally slapped myself in the face. At least there wasn't anyone else in the hallway.
"Uuuhhmmmm… Yeah that's true, but where did you learn that?" She said confused.
"Weeeelllll my cousin told me there was a rumor going around that you had amnesia…" I said quickly before she got suspicious.
"Oh, well the rumor is true I guess. I can't remember the first 9-10 years of my life." She shrugged. She couldn't remember me! What a shame.
"Well…. Okay. Bye then!" I said and went to walk away.
"Bye!" She replied. Just after she said that I heard her mutter something that sounded suspiciously like "Where the hell did I see you before? It's bugging me!" But I shrugged it off and went… Well, I wasn't really headed anywhere.
DING!
Crap! That was the bell! I got to get to 5th period!
When I arrived, everyone was being seated. Guess I didn't miss anything. Then Mrs. Holcomb came to me and pointed at a seat towards the back. Awesome!
We learned about something in Asia called the Silk Road or something, I wasn't really paying any attention. The only thing I was paying attention to was the guy who sat next to me. He seemed to be paying half-attention, and he looked really tired.
Just before 5th period ended and we were getting ready to go to 6th period, I wondered why he was so tired.
After school on the way back, I heard him complaining to his friends about why school had to start at 8:30. And that he had to get up at 7:00! Someone finally understands me! Then the rest of the day was really boring. Absolutely nothing happened. Sooo…..
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
My alarm clock was ringing, so I went to push the 'snooze' button when I heard Thalia and Nico in the back of my head saying, "DON'T YOU DARE PUSH THAT SNOOZE BUTTON!" So I decided to push the 'reset' button so that it would go again tomorrow when nothing happened. I tried again, same outcome. So, being the idiot that I am, I just unplugged the thing. What else would I have done?
I got breakfast, got dressed, then went to school. Today was Tuesday, so just four more days of school until the weekend! That would be awesome!
I got to school when I noticed something was off. I couldn't figure out what it was, so I ignored it. And off I went to 1st period.
Math was…. Boring. Just like it was yesterday. We are learning about LCM and GCF, whatever those are. No, I was not paying attention, thanks for asking. Next, 2nd period.
Now for PE, this is gonna be good.
"Okay cupcakes!" Coach Hedge said after the bell rang which signalled the start of class. "Today we are going to be playing dodgeball!" OH YEAH! I thought when he said that. I have the fastest reflexes in the world!
We got into teams and the game started. I got 6 people out in the first 30 seconds. From catching their balls (DODGE balls, not the other kind!) and from throwing them at people.
After a while it was me and that one kid from Social Studies versus half of the other team. The other team had Nico and Thalia, but I'm not showing any mercy!
After about a minute, their half was reduced into another half. Which would be a quarter I think (like I said, I don't pay attention in math class!)
And then it was down to me and the kid versus Nico and Thalia! I threw one at Thalia and she easily dodged it. Nico threw one at me which I narrowly dodged it, then Thalia threw one at me that I back-flipped over. When I did this, everyone that was out all started yelling like, "WOW!" And, "HOW DID HE DO THAT!?" And stuff.
While I did it, Thalia looked at me in disbelief, and the kid threw a dodgeball at her with dead-on accuracy, and got Thalia out.
"What the fu-" Tahalia started before Nico interrupted her, saying "Thalia!"
Then the kid and I threw a total of eight dodgeballs at Nico. He avoided the first five but the sixth one got him.
"Well played!" The kid said to the other team.
"That was easy" I said at the end. This kid was good, I saw him get out at least a third of the other team. I also saw him avoid three dodgeballs at once!
There was something fishy about this kid…. But what?
Try to answer the 1,000,00 dollar question everyone! (Just kidding!) Anyways, I'm really sorry that I haven't updated the story in a week, but that was due to homework and exams! I would have uploaded a lot sooner but I couldn't have, and I tried to make this chapter long but I hadn't updated in a long time so that went out the door. Anyways,
Last chapters trivia: Leo and Festus took Gaia into the sky where she wouldn't be in her domain, making her weaker. Then that freaking nerd Octavian (I absolutely hate him) used one of his stupid onagers to murder himself, Leo, and Gaia.
This chapters trivia: Why did Bianca Di Angelo join the hunt?
