(A/N) I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that Luke, along with Rachel, doesn't have his demigod abilities. Anyways, rate and review! Also, I'm not Rick Riordan, I don't own PJO.

Percy POV

It was cold. My face felt numb, and it was not fun. Annabeth's uppercut had left me with a black and blue right cheek and some very pained teeth. I was hanging at the nurse's when I realized what the time was. Oh, shoot, it's already 11:40! Lunch started two minutes ago, and I do not want Thalia bugging me about where I was. I hastily thanked the nurse and sprinted out into the lunchroom. I joined Thalia and Nico at the table. As I neared, I desperately tried to stifle a laugh. The two looked lost as if suddenly the lunchroom was the most interesting room in the world. "Hey, Thals, what's up, Nico?" I tried to put on a normal face as if nothing had ever happened to me.

As soon as Thalia looked at me, her mouth widened into an O, and Nico still looked bored. Then Thalia burst out laughing. See? Not the most compassionate friends in the world, but I could make it work.

"What happened to your face? You look as if you'd been dragged through cement!" Thalia snickered.

"Nothing, I just got into a fight with a bully," I replied, ashamed of being beaten up by a girl, and that too, the new girl.

"Looks like you got the worse end of the deal," Thalia snorted.

"Oh, shut up, Thalia, it's not like you could've done any better."

Just then, Annabeth walked up to our table. "Hey, Thalia, can I sit-" Annabeth stopped, then locked eyes with me. "What are you doing here?" she asked menacingly.

"I could ask you the same. What right do you think you have to come here and kick me out?" I glared at her.

"No worries, I just won't sit here. Thalia, I'm sorry, but I don't feel like sitting here today. I don't feel like sitting next to an idiot. A green-eyed idiot, for that matter."

She promptly rose from the table and shuffled away quickly, then shot one last glare at me.

"Fine!" I yelled, "That's a good thing you're leaving! I didn't want to sit next to violent airheads anyway!" I stomped out of the lunchroom and ate near the classroom instead.

Annabeth POV

Just when I thought the worst part of my day was over. The knucklehead Percy acts like he's the only friend Thalia has, and clearly, she also has me. Yeah, sure, I've only been friends with her for about four periods, but she and I had immediately hit it off. I could already tell that we were going to be great friends. I left lunch in a huff, after what happened with Percy. Poor Thalia, she probably had no clue as to what had gone on between us. As I trudged down the hall, Thalia quickly caught up to me.

"Annabeth! What happened? You and Percy looked like you were going to kill each other, and I mean quite literally!"

"It's nothing, just some small argument."

Thalia's eyebrows rose. "Already an argument? What, it's been one class with him, and you two already have something to argue about? Hmmm..." Thalia snickered, with a smug plastered across her face. "Does someeeeoneeee have a crush on someeeeoneeee else?" Thalia grinned.

"Ew, no, Thalia, that's disgusting! I'm sorry, but your cousin is the most annoying and mess of a person I have ever met! I was in one class with him, and he already shoots a stone at me and cuts me! I had to go to the nurse for a bandage! On the first day of school! It's not even like I said something offensive to make him do that! He just fires a stone at me like he does that to everyone! Wait, does he do that to everyone?"

Thalia was still smirking, but answered, "No, he doesn't do that to anyone else..." she said.

"And so, for that," I continued,"I clipped him on the cheek. That's why it was all black and blue."

Thalia's eyes widened. "You did that. Ha! Percy said he got into a fight with bullies! Oh, he is never going to hear the end of this!" Thalia bounced, excited.

I smirked. What a wimp, he can't even lie correctly or own up to the truth. What a failure.

(A/N) Sorry, this was a boring one, and it's not the greatest. Also, don't expect a daily update, as I'll upload whenever I can. Don't forget to R&R!
