So, how are you? I hope you're good. A couple people have been asking me things, but I can't respond because I am unable to PM them. So, if you're waiting for an answer but have not received one, that's your answer.

I'm starting to get back into the swing of things with this story, and for those of you reading this for the first time, I'm sorry, it won't make any sense for a while. Seeing as I'm updating one chapter at a time.

In this version of the story, let's all just assume that Leo and Calypso found their way back from Ogygia without a scratch.

Leo's pov

Wait, back up. You're probably wondering what Fly Boy, Beauty Queen and I are doing in a high school of all places.

So, after the war, Pipes, Jason, and I decided to spend half the year in Camp Half-Blood and half the year in Camp Jupiter. Reyna tried doing what Camp Half-Blood does, and sent out the fauns to try and find demigods.

Unfortunately, it didn't work out to well. I'll spare you the details and just say there was an incident involving a hellhound, a beach ball, and a fire extinguisher.

After the little incident, Reyna decided it would be best to send other demigods out. Since no one else would, we volunteered to go out to a high school. Our only term was that we be placed in the same school. Reyna agreed.

So, we headed to homeroom and discovered that Kelp Head, Owl Brain, Sparky Senior, and Ghost Dude were in the same school as us. We also met another girl named Skylar, who seemed a bit awkward.

After introducing ourselves, the bell rang and we had to go our separate ways. Skylar, Nico, and I went to chemistry with Mrs. Bane. Andy and Percy went to English with Mr. Smith. Thalia, Piper, and Jason went to woodshop with Ms. Tyler.

I walked down the hallway with Nico and Skylar. The latter of who looked very uncomfortable. I questioned her as to why and she responded that she always looked this uncomfortable. We walked down the remainder of the hall in awkward silence.

OoO

We walked into the classroom to a completely and utterly odd sight. Unlike the typical arrangement of rows, the desks were arranged into groups of four and were facing each other, like in a kindergarten classroom.

We sat down in a group near the middle. Skylar took out a sketchpad and started to draw something. I peeked over her shoulder but she turned the sketchbook away so I couldn't see it.

She wagged her finger at me, "No. Maybe when it's done." Before I could come up with a clever retort, someone sat down next to Nico. Skylar glanced up at the person and then quickly looked down pretending that she hadn't seen them.

I looked up at the person. It was a boy. He had a crewcut, a football jacket, and a very greedy expression on his face. A typical jock.

I looked at Nico and a silent agreement passed between us. After a few schools I learned that the best way to get rid of bullies was to ignore them.

Simultaneously, we took out the monster proof iPhones I had invented and plugged in headphones. Catching our drift, Skylar did the same thing with her iPhone and continued to sketch. When the boy tried to get her attention, she turned her volume all the way up.

He slumped in defeat and went to sit in another seat. Skylar looked up and smiled appreciatively at us. I grinned cheekily in response and she shoved me playfully. Nico smirked a little at us and went back to playing Trivia Crack.

A few minutes later, the teacher walked in and I sighed slightly. Putting away my phone, I prepared for the worst. Mrs. Bane pointed at the white board and drawled on about compounds and mixtures.

Nico and I scowled at each other; this was going to be a long class.

OoO

45 painful minutes later, we walked out of chemistry. Thankfully with no homework. We split up and went to our separate classes.

I walked down the hall to woodshop*, hoping that it wouldn't be nearly as boring as chemistry. When I got to the classroom, no one else was in it, so I grabbed a seat in the back. Trying to remain as inconspicuous as possible.

Five minutes later, the classroom was almost completely filled; all except the seat next to mine. The teacher walked in and began class.

A few minutes later, just as Ms. Tyler was beginning to explain how to use a saw, a girl walked in wearing a plain white t-shirt and jeans.

Almost every head swiveled in her direction and she blushed bright red. The girl mumbled her apology, and Ms. Tyler smiled. "It's alright Miss Moonlace**. Just don't be late again. Take a seat next to Mr. Valdez."

When I heard my name, I looked up and felt my eyes widen in shock. Calypso sat down beside me.

I nudged her, "I thought you were staying in Camp Jupiter." She shrugged, "I got bored. Thought I'd join you in high school."

I snorted, "Fair enough, Miss Moonlace."

She shoved me, "Shut up." Calypso burned bright red for the second time.

OoO

After a few more classes which I will not bore you to death by describing, Calypso and I walked down to the cafeteria hand-in-hand.

I saw that Andy and Percy had already snagged a table, so I dragged Calypso over. I sat down next Percy who waved at Calypso.

Calypso and Percy were talking over me about some brand of clothing that they liked when the room went silent.

We all looked to the entrance and saw Thalia, Nico and Skylar standing there. I could see all three of them giving everyone death glares.

"Well!" Skylar yelled, "Ever heard of minding your own beeswax?" Every table went back to their conversations, shooting Skylar a wary look when she passed by.

Skylar sat down across from me and started picking at her food, not making eye contact with anyone. Piper and Jason came in soon afterward.

I smirked, "Found a closet to snog in?"

They blushed and I got my answer. Calypso had been staring intently at Skylar, as though trying to sense what was wrong.

Calypso cleared her throat and Skylar looked up. Putting on a fake smile, Skylar stuck out her hand, "I don't believe we've met. I'm Skylar."

Calypso took her hand and shook it, "I'm Calypso."

Retracting her hand, Calypso got straight to business. "Why is everyone so wary of you?" Every eye on the table turned to Skylar and she shifted uncomfortably under the stares. Realizing that we weren't going to drop it, she sighed.

"A few years ago, before any of you came here, Lindsey and I were really close. Then we had a big fight, and since then she's been trying to make my life a living hell. She spread rumors about me doing terrible things, and since then no one's wanted to be my friend. Any new people who try, I scare them off before rumors can start about them too. Andy was the first one who wasn't bothered about it."

She looked each one of us dead in the eye, "It's not too late for you. You can still walk away from me if you want to, I won't hold it against you. The choice is yours."

*I've never taken a class of woodshop in my life but I thought it seemed appropriate as he's a son of Hephaestus. Bear with me.

**I'm not that good with last names. Sue me.

Sorry if the end was a bit dramatic. I just couldn't resist. Also, sorry if Leo used really formal words, it's just how I write.
