Annabeth POV

I woke up to a sharp ringing right next to my ears, my first thought about that was: if that's Bobby and/or Matthew I am going to wring their necks, apparently it wasn't it was my alarm clock, still doesn't make me any less irritated.

After stopping the irritating alarm I did my usual morning routine that involves showering, dressing, fixing my hair and make-up and most importantly going downstairs to the kitchen for a coffee.

Making my way downstairs I found the reason for my alarm being set so early: it was my first day at a new school, apparently even though I am the daughter of Athena the Greek goddess of wisdom and battle strategy I am still prone to forgetfulness in the mornings.

After breakfast, getting all my school stuff ready and most importantly a coffee, I got into my brand new, shiny silver BMW Z4 and hurries of to school.

I arrived at school a tad early, I figured that out by the fact there wasn't many cars in the student car park (I could tell because there was a sign for both the student and staff car parks) so I went to the front office to collect my timetable and maybe get a map so I knew where to go.

It was an extremely pleasant surprise to see an old childhood friend also waiting at the office; I sure hope she remembers me.

As I opened the door into the office she turned around and saw me, cue girly, long time no see reunion stuff, "oh my gods, Annabeth I haven't seen you in ages"
"It's good to see you too Thalia, it's been what, 5 years?"
"Just that much? I thought it was longer"
"Nah It was at camp, don't you remember I left a few days after that new kid the son of Poseidon showed up"
"oh yeah, his name is Percy Jackson and a heads up he goes to this school"
"cool I get to meet the first son of Poseidon to have shown up at camp for years, what's he like?"
"well he's tall, lean, well-muscled from training and the best swordsman I have ever seen"
"He sounds interesting"
"you have no idea, he has a great personality and is really sarcastic, but gets irritating at times"
"brilliant"
"yeah he's fun to be around though, really loveable and sometimes he can even be intelligent"
our conversation was ended when one of the office ladies asked for our names so she could give us our timetables, once we had them we were told to go to the principal's office to wait for some people to give us a tour. While we were waiting two more girls came in and hugged Thalia who introduced them, the taller of the two, Ashley was wearing expensive blue skinny jeans, converse all-star high tops, a pink shirt and a designer jacket, while the shorter, Alice was wearing all grey, if she was a demigod she would be a daughter of Athena I thought, I was pleasantly surprised when Thalia said they were in fact demigods.

After about five more minutes our tour guides arrived, as soon as the four guys walked in the door Thalia, Ashley and Alice all ran and hugged three of the guys who I guessed they were their boyfriends. I got a good look at the final guy there, he was wearing a plain black long sleeved shirt underneath a black band shirt with Escape the Fate written on it, black skinny jeans, grey Vans shoes and a grey Vans hoodie unzipped (I could tell he had a long sleeved shirt on underneath his T-shirt because I could see part of the neck and sleeves). He looked exactly like Percy Jackson as Thalia had described him, so I walked up to him and started a casual conversation
"Hello you must be Percy Jackson, Thalia talked about you" wow his eyes are so captivating my inner girl thought while my voice of reason aka daughter of Athena instincts scolded her to shut up and don't think like that because he is the son of Poseidon, my deep conscious however overruled both of them and decide to stay at the neutral/friendly stage.
"Yes that would be me and your name would be…?"
"My name is Annabeth Chase" I said wow he is really polite and not irritating yet…
"well Annabeth I'm pleased to make your acquaintance, should we break up these happy couples" he said motioning to the two official couples and the one in denial,
"sure hey guys watch the PDA okay, make out time is after school in bedrooms, got it?" I said with an evil smile, that got them blushing
"sorry" was the reply from the two couples while Alice and her not boyfriend blushed even more
"come on then we have to take them on a tour remember?"
"Right sorry, Percy you lead the way since you know the place best" wow he must really like the place
"fine I'll lead then".
As we were entering the juniors' locker area there were already fights breaking out "typical boys" were my thoughts.

After the tour I was introduced to everyone and we skipped out on English (terrible I know a daughter of Athena) where I got to know the rest of them more, after we had done talking about movies and were just going to move on to music I pulled Percy aside and asked him if the rest of them are demigods, I thought he would be surprised to find out I was a demigod but for some reason he wasn't, hmm must ask him about that later, apparently they were so he got them to tell me who their godly parents were; Ryan's dad was Apollo which didn't really surprise me; Nico was a son of Hades again not a surprise, I mean he was seriously emo; Ashley was a daughter of Aphrodite, "of course" I thought, it explains all the designer stuff, I could swear her bag was Gucci; Alice was a daughter of Athena, I guessed right of course; the only surprising one was Jamie, he was a son of Athena which seriously shocked me because he had pure black hair and he had more of a cocky "I know I'm better than you" attitude instead of the typical confidence of an Athena kid, but I suppose he could have dyed his hair and he could be from a high class family.

After all the final lot of introductions we got back into the likes and dislikes discussion, where I found out Percy and I had similar likes in music, both of us liking stuff like We The Kings and Coldplay (Percy still did like a bit of the heavy-ish stuff that Nico got him into), while Alice and Ashley liked pop music especially Taylor Swift, which I didn't mind, Ryan listened to pretty much everything apart from Justin Bieber, One Direction and Dubstep (I don't like any of that stuff either) and he also thought that Rebecca Black should be sentenced to the Fields of Punishment for creating that disgrace she calls a song. Nico and Thalia both had pretty much the same taste in music, which was Punk, Post-hardcore and Emo (for Thalia especially Paramore, she has good taste and for Nico a band called Scary Kids Scaring Kids), Jamie was the odd one out in the music category, he did listen to a bit of Post-hardcore, but mostly British Metal core (especially Bullet For My Valentine).

My next lesson was trigonometry, with Percy and Nico, who were both looking like they wanted to melt into the ground. In a nutshell trig was nightmarish, the teacher Mrs Dodds was a BITCH (capitals definitely needed there), I mean she was pure evil and she hated me, Percy and Nico especially. Lesson 3 was good, I had History, with Percy, Thalia, Nico and Alice, the topic was World War II and especially the D-Day landing at Normandy and the strategic positions the Axis forces used and how it influenced the battle.

Lesson 4 was hell for me, I had swimming with Percy, it was rather uneventful we only got to learn the schools swimwear and pool safety rules, we didn't even do any swimming, which was good for me because as embarrassing as it is to admit I can't swim. Lunch was next I sat With Percy and the rest of the group, and I was just about to start a conversation when an ugly red-haired girl (I think it was a girl) came up to Percy dressed in a mini skirt, leggings and a baby shit brown jacket and pretty much shoves herself in his face. The result was an enraged Percy shouting at her "I don't give a flying fuck if your daddy is rich and you pay me a thousand dollars to go out with you, I would rather get skinned alive and then rubbed in salt, because you're just a rich slut who wouldn't get laid if you paid."
Her response to that was a horrendous shriek and an attempted slap to the face of Percy, but Thalia intervened "touch him and see what happens" and with that the red-head ran off to the toilets to go cry. "Who was that?" I asked
"Annabeth Chase you have just had the pleasure of meeting Rachael Elizabeth Dare" was Thalia's answer to that question
"wasn't much of a pleasure."

Lesson 5 was over quickly, thank the gods, I absolutely hate physics, but it was entertaining, I had two of Percy's other friends, Connor and Travis Stoll, in my class they were twins and from what I've seen the only teacher that doesn't hate them is the music teacher, who is a 20 year old student teacher. At the end of lesson the Stolls properly introduced themselves as twin sons of Hermes, my hand automatically went to my pocket "we aren't gonna steal anything from you" they both said at the same time
"why not?" I asked
"coz you're part of Percy's gang right?"
"Um yeah"
"we have a deal with Percy, we don't prank him or his group and he lets us hang with him to lose some heat when we're in trouble."
"Good deal for you guys"
"yeah it sure is"

Time for lesson 6 specialist music.
