"Mate get up" Ethan yelled as I groaned and pulled my duvet over my head, oh why did it have to be a school day today and the first day of term as well. "Come on man GET UP!" Ethan yelled again from the doorway of my room. "Ethan go away I'm tired" I groaned, "Alright you asked for it" Ethan yelled then a huge bucket of water fell on me and did I mention it was cold water.
"What the hell Man!" I yelled angry I now had rolled out of bed and water was dripping from my pyjama bottoms, bare chest and face from where Ethan had chucked water at me. "HA man you should see your face Ha! Ha!" Ethan said laughing nearly rolling on the ground, "Bastard" I mumbled as I grabbed my clothes and headed to the bathroom. I got changed and went downstairs to sit with Ethan and Byron, who were eating breakfast.
Byron was twenty four and was pretending to be our 'Guardian' while we we're in 'school', the reason we we're in school was because we we're looking for demigods to come back to America with us to go to Camp half-blood and apparently the high school we we're going to is called Triton senior high school which was apparently full of Demigods. The reason why the satyrs weren't doing it was because they weren't enough to cover all the American schools and Australia. So here we are, 50 Demigods, Ethan and myself all we're scattered across Australia looking for demigods. Lets just say it hasn't been easy the demigods here were major secretive and defensive against other demigods, most of the demigods that we have got onto our side say its because they have had to be on there own for so long and because some demigods go missing a lot and apparently end up dead or worst case scenario is that they don't find out who they are and get straight up killed by monsters because they never realise they're demigod status.
I grabbed some toast off the plate in the middle of the table and got some vegemite from among the group of jars with jam, peanut butter and as such. " So do we have any ideas yet of anyone specifically that is one of us yet?" I asked referring the 'us' as demigods, "Yes there is a boy on the afterschool footy team that may have some demigod blood in him, he is believed to be a son of Ares his name is Mitch. Also there is a girl called Maria who may have some Demigod blood but we have no clue which God or Goddess yet, and that's it so far. But beware it looks like Maria is extremely in the aware of what she is and looks like if we don't approach her the right way she will attack and disappear also she has little siblings that may be demigods as well so she is as protective as a momma bear, because apparently that is what has happened to a couple of Agents that have approached her so far they have tried to interact with the kids first and then get taken down by Maria then the kids and her disappear".
"Great" I blurted out sarcastically, 'Yay' I thought. 'This is going to be so much fun, we have football kid of Ares that has no clue and a chic that might attack and disappear as soon as we make the right moves. I think I would rather try tackle that chic the ghost assassin, then again I might get hurt worse if I attacked her' I thought with a wince. Seeing that huge guy that she took down then the manticore with no problems with only her friend was scary as hell, I definitely didn't wont to get on her bad side.
"Come on guys let's go Ethan you try go for the chic Maria you're the least intimidating and I'll try get buddy, buddy with the footballer maybe he might be willing to accept his demigod status by someone he trusts" I said out loud. "HEY I'm not the least intimidating, your just a big knuckle head that's why he would trust you, great minds think alike but in this case dumb ones" Ethan retorted. "That's it" I said fake angrily and tackled Ethan, "Come on guys break it up" Byron yelled as he grabbed both of us by the collar of our school shirts, the school gave us a school shirt but we got to wear what ever we wanted as pants and shoes as long as it was appropriate.
"Okay guys lets get you two to school and signed in" Byron yelled as he walked out the front door with his car keys in hand. "Please, pleas, please let this day go alright," I whispered after everyone had left the room. I composed myself and walked to Byron's, which was going to take me to my new school and new mission.
Elle's POV
School
"Okay girls these are your schedule's, with a map each of the school, everything is pretty simple there is block buildings for nearly every subject area. So everything will hopefully be pretty easy to find" The lady at the front office babbled on, talking about how fun the school is and how we should join one of its afterschool teams yeah right.
"Elle, Elle come on lets go" Freya half yelled at me, whoops I must have been daydreaming again oops again. "Okay we are in all the same classes so halleluiah for that except you have music and marine studies while I have Dance and Italian" Freya said. "Good thing I bought a spare change of clothes because I have dance today" Freya then yelled even louder. "And I don't know why your not doing dance either you know because your like the best dancer I know E" Freya whispered, "Come on you know I don't dance in front of anyone" I argued, "Plus I'm gonna break into the dance studio this afternoon if its empty" I added to appease Freya.
Freya knows I love dancing but since I became the 'Ghost Assassin' I haven't been dancing a lot lately which has apparently according to her makes me grumpy. "Okay so what do we have first Frey?" I asked using her nickname at the end, "We have English first then History" she groaned at the mention at History, I love History while Freya passes only by my tutorage and constant random historical facts that I sometimes blab out to her when she talks to much. "Okay lets kill this Mother Trucker," I said and Frey and I headed to English totally unsuspecting to what was about to happen.
