Hello again! Sorry I haven't been able to update, I've had track and a lot of homework. Why is no one reviewing? Am I that bad at writing? Oh, well…I enjoy it. SO YOU'RE STUCK WITH ME IDJITS.

Skylar's pov

They all stared at me in shock. Okay, I may have been a little overdramatic, but it's the truth. Everyone who I've tried being friends with has had their lives ruined by Lindsey. Why? God I wish I knew. Heck, even my family likes her over me.

Calypso had glanced behind me and frowned in confusion. I strained my ear to see if I could hear any conversation, but all I could hear was the familiar clack clack of high heels. Everyone in front of me simultaneously groaned. Jason, Piper, Leo, and Calypso just looked confused.

I turned around to snarl at her but she just sidled right past me and put her hand Andy's shoulder. "So Andy," she purred, "My mom's a Victoria's Secret model, did you know that? They're going on a cruise this weekend and she said I could bring a friend! So what do you think, want to come?"

I could see Andy's eyes widening, and growled internally. No matter how loyal a boyfriend is, it's just genetics that a boy would be interested in a boat full of models. Before Andy could get a word out, Percy pushed Lindsey's hand off of his shoulder.

"Andy, don't you remember? My dad's coming out to visit, and he's gonna want to see you." Percy gave him a look that simply said, are you sure that you want to deal with my dad. Deciding that he didn't want to deal with Mr. Jackson's wrath, Andy gulped and turned back to Lindsey.

"Sorry Lindsey. I promised Percy that I go with her to see her dad." Percy smiled at him laid her head on his arm. Looking over his shoulder, she shot a glare at Lindsey as she waddled away.

Letting out sigh of relief, Andy glanced down at the girl on his arm, "Nice job coming up with an excuse Seaweed Brain."

"Hmm? Oh that wasn't an excuse, my dad is coming out this weekend to check up on me."

"WHAT?!"

Needless to say, the rest of lunch was spent with Andy panicking.

Twenty minutes later, we threw out our garbage and slowly made our way back to our lockers. I walked over to where Nico and Thalia were talking. But before I could ask them what was on my mind, they started discussing a rather interesting topic. I hid behind a corner, rather interested.

Nico whispered to Thalia, "So who do you think the new demigod is?" I felt my eyes widen, demigod?

She whispered back, "To be honest, I don't know. This kid must have some serious protection magic helping them. There's no way that they would've been able to survive this long without it."

"Then how were we able to find them?"

Thalia shook her head, "The scent is strong enough to sense their general location, but not enough to single out an individual person."

Nico whistled appreciatively, "That's pretty cool. So whose kid do you think it is?"

She shrugged, "My guess is Athena, Apollo, or a Big Three."

I gasped, and covered my hand with my mouth, realizing what I had done. I turned on my heel, not bothering to wait and see what their reactions were, and ran as fast as I could to my next class.

Nico's pov

As Thalia and I were talking, I heard a small gasp from behind a wall. I quickly turned around, but saw no one there. Walking quietly to the corner, I peeked my head around just in time to see Skylar running away, her brown hair flying behind her.

I mumbled a curse under my breath, realizing that we had been caught. Shooting a look at Thalia, I jumped into a shadow, popping out right next to Skylar.

"Hey Skylar," I said. I heard her squeak and turn to face me, "O-Oh. H-hi Nico."

I sighed and ran a hair through my hair. "You okay?"

Her breath quickened and she gave a nervous smile, "Fine. I'm just heading off to health." I gave her a look and she squeaked again.

I walked up to Skylar and gripped her arms. Looking down on her—gods she was short—I said, "How much of that conversation did you hear?"

Skylar glared up at me before ripping her arms out of my grasp. "Enough," she growled, "I don't know what you're playing at, but you and Thalia are nuts! Demigods aren't real! They're a work of fiction, something made up by an author for his book!"

I heard Thalia walk up beside me. She cocked her head to the said, "What's this about a book?"

Skylar snorted and rolled her eyes, "Like you don't know. How else do you explain knowing about demigods if you didn't read the books?!" Her eyes widened slightly, "Oh please tell me you're not movie fans."

I clenched my fists in frustration, "What book are you talking about?!"

Skylar's eyes narrowed, "What book do you think? The PJO Series!"

Thalia cocked her head to the other side, "PJO?"

Skylar rolled her eyes, "Seriously? You lot are rubbish fans…" she trailed off muttering before her voice regained strength, "PJO stands for Percy Jackson and the Olympians."

BOOM. That's the chapter. Sorry for the long wait. I've been super busy.

Love it?

Hate it?

Let me know in the reviews!
