I just want to clarify: I know that Goode High School is a boarding school, but for the story's sake, it isn't. Also, I have certain things in this chapter that are real, feel free to look them up if you want, if you don't, whatever. Just tell me if this is a good idea or not please! Well, I have to give a shout out to Happitea, Who was the first person to comment! Also, sooooo sorry for not updating! This chapter is twice as long as the last one, and I got grounded from Fan Fiction for two weeks! Now, for the much-awaited chapter 2:
In the mortal world:
Zeus:
Where am I? I asked my self as I turned around it my bed to the sound of soothing rain. It turns out, that's the sound set on my alarm. I hit the off button and my eyes quickly found some, little vial. It was the color of the sky when it's just beginning to get dark. It had an oval bottom, with tiny, rounded ridges. But the most striking (A/N pun intended… you'll see) thing of all was the little grey cloud cork stopper that flashed and shocked me as I tried to touch it. How is that possible? My question was soon answered as I looked at what was taped on the vial: Noah Freeman, 17, Parents: Skylar and Isaac Freeman. Then I remembered: Oh! That's right I'm Zeus! I'm here to spy on Thalia and Jason! Oh! That sounds nosy! Ummm… let me think. Oh! I got it! I'm politely observing them without them knowing! Yep! That's better!
I scanned my room. It was painted sky blue and had pictures of tornadoes and hurricanes and other amazing storms. The floor and ceiling were both white wood. My bed comforters are sky blue to match my wall, and both my sheets and pillow are just simple and white. I had a small white bedside table with a glass based lamp with a cream colored shade. Below it was my black alarm clock and the vial. On the other side of the room was a big white closet. I got out of bed and opened the closet door. I pulled on a navy colored sweater over a white collared shirt and a pair of black pants. Then, I headed into the hallway in search of a bathroom. I found one just on the left of the hallway out side my room.
Looking in the mirror was an amazing thing. My long-ish grey hair was now blonde and it looked just like Jason's. My face was light, but not pale, just like Jason's. And my eyes, they were light blue, just like Jason's. I look just like Jason.
After I combed my hair, I headed down stairs. I was greeted by a slightly plump looking woman with straw colored blonde hair tied back into a messy ponytail. She had dark blue eyes and skin that was blotchy in some places. I knew then, that she was Skylar- er… I mean my mom. She looked nice, and I liked her!
After giving me a light kiss on the cheek, she told me to take a seat at the kitchen counter. I did as I was asked. She put out a plate of scrambled eggs in front of me, as well as a fork and napkin, and then started making fresh squeezed orange juice. I spread the napkin over my lap and started eating my eggs. They were delicious! When I was half way through, she put a tall glass of orange juice in front of me. I was so busy eating that I barely even acknowledged it. Soon enough, I was done with my eggs and then downed the juice. "Delicious meal mom!" I told her. "Awww… thanks Noah!" she responded, "Now, don't forget, its your first day at Goode! For lunch, I packed you a turkey and lettuce wrap, celery sticks and a bottle of water." "Sounds good!" I exclaimed. "The bus should be here in a few minutes. Have a perfect first day at school!" She hands me a navy blue backpack, which I sling over my left shoulder. I give her a quick kiss good bye and I head out the door of our apartment.
Hera:
The vial felt weird in my hand. It was a clear cylinder with a peacock feather that waved, almost like there was wind. A peacock is my sacred animal, because I am Hera, queen of Olympus. My room showed it too!
It was white background wallpaper covered with peacock feather print. The carpet was purple shag. The bedspread was just white, but the pillow and sheets were both peacock purple. I had a small, white desk in the corner of the room. I had a Theater- 3 Light Purple Mini Chandelier. (A/N you can look the chandelier up on Google images: I chose a real item)
I slipped out of bed and headed to the green closet on the other side of the room. I pulled out a black sleeveless tank top, a pair of white leggings and a green mesh tunic sweater (A/N another real thing. It's Michael Kors). For accessories, I went with "Large Emerald Green Earrings- Hand cut Prisms" (A/N This is another real thing), and a thin gold bracelet. For my shoes, I go with black ballet flats.
The first bathroom I find is on the other side of the hall. I step in excitedly. I gape at my new reflection. I have chest length, wavy black hair, pale skin, deep brown eyes and the tiniest hint of freckles on my nose. I looked fun, open, intelligent, kind and above all, beautiful. I have never been this beautiful before. Zeus has to take me now! I know he will! There is no was he can say no to me! I tell my self, now full of hope. I think I'll make a small offering in honor of Hectate in thanks tonight.
I walked to the kitchen area, full of newfound pride. Soon, I smell something, quite, unique. I find a tall, lean woman with brown hair, who I am assuming is my mother Ellen, standing over a skillet, trying to sauté some black thing. "Good morning Sweetheart!" She says airily. "Uhhh… hi mother." I respond. She smiles lightly and I realize I played it right. "What are you making?" I ask her, "Isn't it obvious! I'm sautéing mushrooms!" I nod grimly, it was certainty not obvious! She finished her sautéing and added the "mushrooms" to a plate on her left. I took a seat at the kitchen counter and she handed me the plate. It was full of little black rings and "mushrooms". "Bon Apatite! Sautéed onions and mushrooms!" She told me happily. Out of pity, I took a bite of a mushroom, cringed to myself, and gave her an encouraging smile. She returns it, pleased, and starts to clean up the mess she has made in the process. I, grudgingly, finish my "food" and she takes the plate away. Then, starts the whole, first day of school talk. "Ok, It's your first day at Goode. Make lots of friends and have fun! For lunch I packed you a-" I cut her off quick by taking off with a purple saddle bag, and purposely forgetting my lunch, yelling, "OK! BYE MOTHER!" Home free! was the after math of the encounter.
Aphrodite:
I stared at my long, loose curls hanging over my chest and brushed away my side bangs. I crawled out of my antique framed queen size bed wondering if I'm rich enough to have a butler and live in a penthouse apartment, then why couldn't I have a King Size? It was true. I had a butler named Winston who had politely woken me up this morning. He was very nice. He called me Miss (as he should), informed me that today was my first day at Goode High School, and told me breakfast would be ready in 10 minutes. When I asked what would be served, he responded with: hardboiled (yolk-less, therefore healthy-er) quail eggs, and fresh squeezed Cuban orange juice.
I remembered scanning my room for the first time: It was painted hot pink; it had a small crystal chandelier that hung with grace in the middle of the room, a gold colored carpet, and a large white door with a gold mustache handlebar.
I climbed out of bed and opened a huge white door to find a huge walk in closet. My fashion juices immediately went into full drive. I pulled out a black, open front, cropped sweater, over a simple, bright pink empire waist dress with a V-neck A-line Knee-length dress, a chunky black and pink necklace, paired with Carvela Gabe Peep Toe Strappy Stiletto Sandals. (A/N these shoes are real as well) Then, I headed to the adjoining bathroom to do my make-up.
I gazed longingly at my reflection. I was gorgeous, even though I'm only mortal right now! My long, wavy, blond hair had a silky sheen, my side bands hung just over my Caribbean blue eyes, and my skin had a peachy glow. I decided to go with an Ali inspired look (I decided that Angelica would be a big PLL fan so I watched the first episode and then I kinda-sorta got addicted) with the same smoky eye shadow, and pink nail polish, but for the lip-gloss, I went with a sparkly pink. I spritzed my self with Channel No. 2 perfume (my favorite, and what the generic perfume smelled like) for added measures.
Then, I headed out stairs, to delicious smells. "Good morning miss Angelica, breakfast is ready." Winston said politely as he put a silver platter in front of my seat. "Now miss," he prompted, "we must discuss: would you like someone to wake you up in the morning, or would you like an alarm clock?" I thought about it then responded with "If its ok with you, I would prefer for someone to wake me up." "Fine with me miss." He answered. I started to nibble on the perfectly cooked, quail eggs. These are scrumptious! I thought to myself. "Thank you!" said Winston. Huh… I guess I didn't say that in my head. "You're welcome Winston." I said with a smile.
Once I was done with my quail eggs and drank my Cuban orange juice, (both very delicious!) Winston took away the platter and informed me on lunch: turkey salad on a fresh croissant, lemon water, and homemade cheesecake for dessert. It was in a Black and White Viceroy Social Cooler (A/N Another real thing).
Winston Handed it to me, as well as a $700 designer backpack. (A/N Real) As I put the cooler (my lunch box) in the backpack, Winston gave me some words of advice: "Miss Fey, I have been with you since you were only 6 months old, when your father and your mother got that separation," What? "and your mother became a news anchor, you have been like a daughter to me! So," he said tearing up "I just want to tell you, I will miss you." Then he smiled, but I wasn't fooled. Tears were pouring down his cheeks. "I will miss you too." I told him "But I'll see you soon enough." We hugged, for what felt like forever, then he handed me a small gold necklace chain bracelet with a big black onyx in the center, "Its black, " he explains, "So it will match with everything." Before I can even thank him, he shuts the door and then I walked away, sobbing.
Poseidon:
My memories were very vague. I only new that My name was Ryan Delta, I am 17, today is my first day at some high school called Goode, and that I overslept. I know because the woman with long black hair tied into a ponytail, and bright green eyes-my mother- told me so. I also knew that I had inherited her striking green eyes, but my hair was sandy blond, because I had gotten up and looked in my apartments bathroom. I knew that my room was painted dark Caribbean blue, the floors were plain chestnut brown wood, my bed sheets were sea green, There was a big white door on the other side of the room (presumably a closet door), and I had a small white bedside table, which held a blue triton lamp with a cream colored lamp shade and a huge brown, pink, a very large fish tank, and white conch shell because I took a second to look around.
I had opened the big white door to find that I was right: It was a closet! It took me a while, but finally I had picked out a sea green V-neck t- shirt, a pair of faded jeans, and green and black Nike sneakers. In the bathroom, I made an attempt at taming my ridiculously messy hair with no avail.
I had headed down stairs to find a piece of toast, already buttered sitting on a plate, next to a tall glass of milk. I inhale them both, because I am starving. I quickly thank my mom; she says you're welcome in return. Then, she hands me a green backpack, and tells me "good luck, and have fun!" with a smile. I give her a kiss on the cheek and head out the door.
(A/N sorry, that pov was REALLY short)
Apollo:
I went to sleep Apollo, and woke up Brad Prince. I liked the new me. I had chestnut brown hair, that was spiked up in certain areas, which, that was starting to lose its spike, blazing green eyes, and pale skin (A/N there is this YouTube show Ever After High that my sister loves, and I based Brad off of Sparrow Hood minus the goatee) and I knew that no girls could stop from fawning over me, even Aphrodite! (whatever she looked like) My room was basically all gold: gold colored walls, gold shag carpet and even a gold comforter. The rest of my room was white: my floors were white wood, a large white dresser, my bed sheets and pillows were white, and finally, so was my bedside table, which held my little gold vial.
I got out of bed, over to the white dresser. I, after much time and consideration, pulled a green muscle shirt, a pair of sagging jeans, a ¼ sleeve leather jacket with spikes on the shoulders, and Demonia Bonanza SkirtStar black boots (A/N another real thing). Then, I headed to the bathroom. I gazed at my reflection thinking how is it possible that I am this good looking? And then I re-spiked my hair. Then, reluctantly, I left.
I headed to the kitchen where my mother Anne had made me a bagel with cream cheese. Then I realized I haven't made a haiku since I became a mortal! I quickly made one up in my head:
My fashion sense rocks!
I am eating a bagel
I am so awesome!
Pretty rockin'! Once I finished my bagel, my mom takes away my plate. I thank her, grab a leather backpack with spikes, and exit the apartment. I can't associate myself with my mother too much! I'm not a dork!
Hermes:
I woke up in a strange room, full of small, clear, plastic boxes, full of letters. They must be letters to me! I knew I was popular! Then I noticed that they were labeled: From Grandma/Grandpa, From Family, and To Be Sent Out. Huh. Well, I guess I will just reshape Ethan Johnson's popularity. Perfect! A new project for me! It'll occupy my time! (A/N This is NOT! I repeat NOT, sarcasm!) Anyway, also in my room were walls painted dark azure, I had a circular carpet white rug on top of my dark brown colored wood floor. My bed was Devon New Oak (A/N A real thing) and my bed sheets were orange (A/N I know! It's a major color contrast, but those are the colors in his logo, so… yeah). To top it off, I had a huge white door on the end of the room
Then, I got out of bed and found that someone (probably my mom) had set out clothes for me. They were khaki shorts, a navy ¼ sleeve shirt, and navy suede bucks (A/N For those who don't know, these are shoes, my mom told me). Then, I headed to a bathroom that I found in a hallway outside my door. When I opened the door I found my self, a medium height boy with, brown hair and brown eyes. In my opinion, I could easily be the schools heartthrob! Whoopee! I did a tiny happy dance. That is, until a mans voice (probably my dad) yelled at me to stop making so much noise. I immediately stopped. I am about to meet Joey and Annabelle! Oh! I mean, dad and mom! I rushed down stairs (after combing my hair of course! I mean, I want to impress them, not depress them!) with a lot of enthusiasm!
Then, I headed downstairs and found my parents. My mom, Annabelle, had long brown hair, which was in a Taylor Swift inspired up do. Her eyes were a beautiful color brown. I must take after her. Yeah, I was right. My dad had black hair, and blue eyes. He was sitting in a big chair, reading the newspaper. My mom was frying an egg and making toast. My mom gave me a sweet smile that lit up the room. I smiled back. I sat down next to my dad at the kitchen table. "You look nice Ethan." My dad said, finally looking up from his newspaper. "Thank you!" I responded. My mom set the food she had made in front of me on a big, plastic, orange plate. When I ate it, I was filled with warmth. It wasn't the best food I had ever eaten, but it was tasty!
Once I was done, my mother held my father's hand and the both looked at me with sweet/concerned looks on their faces. I started getting confused. "Did I do something wrong?" I asked innocently. "No," my father said "not yet. But our point is, please don't get into trouble." "Ok. I won't." I told them reassuringly. "Ok, we love you! See you when you get home!" my mom said, handing my blue messenger bag. My dad gave me a slap on the back and I was out the door.
Ares:
My mouth no longer tasted like blood. That was something. Unfortunately, I now had a crazy headache! I groaned and flipped myself out of bed and glared around. My room was dark-ish red, had a black concrete floor, my bed was a big white mattress with a red comforter and white pillow sitting on the floor, and I had a big black, over flowingly messy, dresser.
I pulled out a pair of baggy black pants, a big red muscle shirt, a leather jacket, and black sneakers. Then I headed to the bathroom. I took a look in the mirror and found a big burly guy with messy brown hair and red-brown eyes. I looked like I was about to beat someone up at any moment. Perfect! Exactly the type of image I'm going for!
Satisfied, I headed down stairs. I immediately got a huge bear hug from a huge man with black hair and red-brown eyes that looked like mine. "You're going to be late for school! Mom is at the gym." He told me. I looked at the time, 7:14! I am going to be so late! (A/N School starts at 7:30 for them) I grabbed a red backpack, which I am assuming is mine, an apple to go, and ran out the door.
Athena:
I woke up with no notion of who I was. To be honest, it was kind of scary, but soon enough I was acquainted with the facts that my name was Ramira Sapience, I am 17, and that I am starting Goode High School today. The woman who came and spoke in fluent Spanish to me, my mother, Maria, told me, with reluctance. I looked around my room, absorbing every aspect of it at every angle. It was painted a beautiful, intelligent looking light grey. My twin bed's comforter matched. My pillows were white, along with my bed sheets. On the other side of the room was a large white desk with many drawers. Next to it was a closet door with a silver handle. I also, right above my bed, had a big white book case ledge, full of books, and another white ledge, this one containing trophies from things like Academic Decathlons, Spelling Bees, Geography Bees, Science fairs, things like that.
I made my way to the white closet door to get ready for school. I pull out a white shirt, a pair of black jeans, a bright, dark azure blue sweater, matching Toms, and a black necklace pendant on a gold chain. It is a smart yet stylish look. Dark blue happens to represent knowledge, power, and integrity (A/N That is true, I looked it up). It went well with my curly brown hair, which I have to brush (A/N BTW, they all brushed their teeth, brushed their hair, etc.), so I headed to the bathroom.
The first things that I noticed about my appearance were my- rather mesmerizing- grey eyes. I also had light olive skin. I only put on a little peach lip-gloss as my make-up, I mean; I didn't want to over do it. I decided to pull my curls into a high ponytail. Then, I headed downstairs, not wanting to stall for time.
I crept downstairs and my mother greeted me. Her hair and eyes were brown, and her skin was olive like mine: regular Spanish features. Leading me to believe that I had probably inherited my grey eyes from my father, Alexander. "Hola cariño! ¿Cómo dormiste? Espero que bien." (A/N Don't worry, I'll tell you all of the translations. Her mom just said: "Hello sweetheart! How did you sleep? I hope well!") She said. "Muy bien, gracias madre! ¿Qué hay para desayunar?" (A/N this means "Very well, thank you mother! What's for breakfast?") I replied. "Un tortilla con espárragos y espinacas." (A/N an omelet with asparagus and spinach) she told me. She swiftly flipped it onto the plate and handed it to me with a silver fork and knife and a mug of black coffee. I ate my food, without conversation with my mother. Some people think black coffee is too strong and absolutely bitter, but I love it! It simulates my brain and wakes me up.
Once I was done, I got up and deposited my plate into the sink. I put the remainder of the coffee into a white to go cup as my mother told me what was for lunch: a salad with lettuce, black and green olives (my favorites!), red and yellow peppers, basil, corn and a balsamic vinegar dressing. She handed me my lunch box: a dark blue Pack It and a Mini Leisure Cartoon Owl College Backpack (A/N Another real thing). "Ahora se diverten en la escuela. ¡Adiós! ¡Te quiero!" she says, tears in her eyes, (A/N that means "Now have fun at school. Goodbye! I love you!") as she closes the door. And I leave.
Demeter:
I woke myself up at 5:30, probably just with excitement in seeing my second favorite daughter (next to Persephone), not that I count or anything. But as I hopped out of bed, I realized that there was no person I would currently see (Persephone is in Hades anyways)!
My bedroom was simple: with a forest green wall, a rich dark brown, soil colored wood floor, a green rectangle carpet with a big, tall, oak tree on it, under an Enchanted Forest Canopy Bed (A/N a real thing and I suggest you look this up, It suits her perfectly. It is the first image on Google Images). There was also a white door with a brown metal doorknob.
I opened it and pulled on a pair of dark jeans and an olive sleeveless tank top, a white elbow length sweater, and a pair of Kalsø Earth Shoes Empire Bat Sandals. (A/N Again, real thing. And it really ties the outfit together!) Something seemed missing from my outfit, but I couldn't put my finger on it, so I headed to a small bathroom down the hall, out of my room.
I don't know what I was expecting top find when I entered the room, but not a pretty girl. The pretty girl had rib cage length, curly, dark brown hair (Which needed serious brushing), striking green eyes, a healthy, but not tan, skin tone. After admiring Hectate's work (even if it was what I asked for), I took a wooden brush and started to comb through my hair. When that was done, I put it into one huge braid and then put the braid into a bun.
Then, I skipped my way downstairs where a woman who looked just like me, was serving breakfast. She set a plate next to a seat with an olive green backpack. "I have quiche for you." (A/N She is a vegetarian) she told me, gesturing to the plate. "It has broccoli, spinach, and asparagus." "Thank you mother." I said as I wolfed down the slice (which was DELICIOUS). I cleared my plate when I was done and then told her "I have to go water my plants." When she nodded, I went back to my room.
I took a spray bottle, a trowel (a small shovel) and water, and began to take care of my plants. I turned the soil, watered and sprayed my flowers, and put them in the sunlight. Then, I looked at my wrist to see what time it was. It was 7:06, but that's beside the point. The point is, that I had no jewelry!
I dug around my room in search of jewelry and came up with no success. What I did find though, were string and beads. I chose a green chord (string) and brown beads, and made and amazing macramé bracelet. My outfit was now perfect. "Kate! The bus will be there soon!" Called my mother. I looked at my watch, 7:23. I ran downstairs, grabbed my backpack, gave my mom a hug as she handed me a recycled lunch bag, and ran outside, exited, mainly to see my daughter.
Hades:
I would have kept sleeping, but my alarm clock wouldn't let me. I stopped its pounding and glared around the room I was in. It had black walls, black wood flooring, a bed frame made of bones, as well as black pillows, and black bed sheets. But hey, what can you expect? I am the King of Goth! I AM HADES! I forgot to mention, my room also had a black closet door. I shoved myself out of bed, threw on a black tee shirt, a black pair of pants, and black shoes. Then I went down stairs, without brushing my hair or even glancing at my reflection, I honestly didn't care.
Down stairs I found a man with shaggy black hair and black eyes who was- rather wolfishly- eating who knows what. "Hello sir." I said nodding to him. "Hello son." He said back. I started chewing on a blood red apple. The rest of the experience was nothing to report. After I was done with my apple, I threw the core in the trash, grabbed a black schoolbag, and headed out the door, without saying goodbye.
Hephaestus:
I woke up to the smell of burning. I ignored it. Then, I herd a scream. I jolted out of bed, and shoved on a white muscle tee, baggy jeans, and black gym shoes. Then I ran outside, but not without remembering to bring a backpack, the one I needed for school. Then, I ran outside. (A/N Sorry, that chapter was short)
Artemis:
When I woke up, I could have easily been in Christian Heaven (What? I have had many huntresses who were Christian). Everything around me was silver, the wallpaper, the grey floors had a silver tint, the curtains were silver, and the bed was silver, as well as my comforter, and my closet handle. The only things that weren't silver were white and that was closet door, my bed sheets, and my pillows. I got out of bed, and went over to my closet. As I gripped the cold silver handle, I wondered if Thalia would accept me. I was so different from her. I push my worries away and I opened the closet. I pulled on a grey chiffon, knee length dress with a sweat heart neckline and spaghetti straps, a dark jean jacket, silver flats, pearl studs and a crescent moon necklace on a silver chain. Then, I went into the bathroom, and studied my features. I had long strait platinum blonde hair, pale skin, and pale blue eyes. I put on some light pink lip-gloss, and silver eye shadow.
Then, I wondered down stairs. There was a woman there who looked similar to me. "Hello darling Luna." My mother said to me. She handed me some water, and half of an orange. I ate the simple food willingly. When I was done, I put away my glass. Then my mother handed me a silver messenger bag. "Your lunch is in your bag." She told me as she closed me out of our apartment. I looked to make sure she was right, which she was. And then I left, exited to see Thalia.
Hope you like this ridiculously long chapter two! See if you can guess who the surprise couple is, there are two. I will PM you if you get it right, and I will mention you when it happens!
