Disclaimer: I don not own anything but the plot.

Percy's POV:

I was in my cabin getting ready for sword practice when Chiron came.

Chiron: Percy, I need your help.

Me: Sure, with what?

Chiron: I found out that there are 10 demigods in England.

Me: Whoa! 10 demigods!?

Chiron: Yes, and since Grover has still not fully recovered from the horn incident.

Me: It was an accident.

Chiron: I don't care if it was an accident or not. I just want you to go to England and retrieve the demigods.

Me: Sure. Where are they?

Chiron: They attend a boarding school in Liverpool and are staying at a house called Anubis House. It is Egyptian territory.

Me: Cool. Is everything ready?

Chiron: Yes. You leave tonight. You'll have dinner then off you go.

Percy: Zeus won't blast me put of the sky, right?

Chiron: Yes. Now get packing.

I nodded and I packed up my stuff. Riptide was capped and in my pocket. I heard the dinner bell. I ran to the pavilion. Annabeth was already at her table eating with her cabin. And Grover (Still in crutches and bandages) was sitting with the other satyrs. I walked to the one table that was empty. The Poseidon cabin. I sat down and started thinking about the new demigods. I just can't believe that I'll finally have a sister or brother. Well, half sister or brother. I served myself and threw the best parts in the fire. I just threw away the beans. I hate beans. I sat back down and started to eat my rice and ribs with barbecue sauce. Then Annabeth and Grover sat down with me.

Me: You feeling better Grov?

Grover: Yeah. And I know you didn't mean to almost kill me and chop off my horns.

Me: Yeah.

Annabeth: So, we hear that you're going demigod hunting as your punishment.

Me: That was a punishment?! It thought Chiron just wanted me to help.

Annabeth: I'm sure it was that, but he can tell the truth and leave out some details.

Me: Well, they are all in England attending some boarding school in Liverpool. Ha ha, Liverpool.

Grover: He he. A pool full of liver

Me: Anyway, I will go to their school and stay at the same house as them.

Grover: Great. What's the house's name?

Me: Anubis House.

Grover choked in his soda can as I said that.

Annabeth: Egyptian territory. Just be careful, okay?

Me: Yeah. I promise. And once I find them, I'll bring them here and they'll be claimed. I just hope I get a sister or brother.

Grover: Half sister or half brother.

Me: Really? Can I please enjoy the moment? Anyway I leave after dinner.

Annabeth: We'll keep in touch.

Me: Iris messages. Got it.

Dinner was over and I was out of the pavilion.

I took a cab and the driver took me to the JFK Airport. It was the nearest one. I boarded the plane and sat in my seat. It felt like days. I was still worried about Zeus. I see it! Sweet land and sea. Percy's coming. I got off the plane and took a train. From there a cab picked me up.

Cab Driver: Where to?

Me: Anubis House.

He drove there and dropped me off. I was looking ad my papers when I heard a girl and a boy's voice.

Girl and Boy: Nice shoes.

I turned around to find a dirty blonde girl and a dirty blonde boy. They were both American. I saw them gasp when I turned around

Me: Thanks. Are you guys going to Anubis House and are you okay?

Boy: Yeah, your standing in front if it.

Girl: And we're okay. We say you on the news last year. Don't worry, we didn't believe a thing Smelly Gabe said.

Me: You know him?

Girl: Yeah, he's...

The guy rubbed the girl's back as she started to gag.

Girl: He's...my godfather

Me: Well, my mom was married to to him.

Girl: I'm feel so sorry for you.

Me: It's okay, they got a divorce anyway.

Girl: Oh, thank god.

Girl and I: Ha ha.

Boy: Anyway, I'm Eddie.

Girl: And I'm Nina.

Me: Nice to meet you Nina and Eddie.

Eddie turned to the house and squinted at a sign.

Eddie: Hey Nina, what does that say?

Nina looked at the sign and squinted a little.

Nina: That says Anubis.

I noticed that Nina took some time to read it.

Me: I know that it's none of my business, but do you guys have dyslexia or ADHD?

Nina: I have dyslexia.

Eddie: Me too.

I looked shocked but changed it to an understanding look.

Me: Oh, okay. Just making sure I'm not the only dyslectic student here.

We started to walk inside the house. It looked really cool. We walked into the living room and a blonde girl literally hugged Eddie and Nina to death. Well, it looked like it.

Nina: Amber...

Eddie: We can't...

Me: Just let them breathe already.

Amber let go and stared at Percy

Girl With Red Hair: Who are you?

Eddie: Patricia!

Nina: This is our new friend Percy Jackson. Percy this is Amber...

Amber: Hi.

Eddie: Fabian...

Fabian: Hello.

Nina: Patricia...

Patricia: Hey.

Eddie: Alfie...

Alfie: Hi!

Nina: Jerome...

Jerome: Hello.

Eddie: Mara...

Mara: Hi.

Nina: Joy...

Joy: Hello!

Eddie: And Mick.

Mick: Hello!

Then a woman who look like she was in her late 20's came in.

Woman: Hello, you must me Percy. I'm Trudy, your housemother. You will be rooming with Eddie and Fabian.

Trudy set down a plate of brownies on the table and we all sat down.

Fabian: So, how do you know Percy?

Eddie: We just met actually.

Patricia: And you're friends already? He could be a con-artist.

Nina: Patricia! Don't talk about him like that! You don't even know him!

Jerome: It's Eddie and Patricia all over again.

Nina: Percy, I am so sorry about her.

Me: No, no. It's okay. She must have seen the news last year. It was international.

I walked outside with my head down low and ran for the woods.. I could have sworn I heard someone yelling in Greek. I reached a burnt Elm tree. I sat down, with my back leaning against the tree trunk. I heard someone coming so, I grabbed the nearest stick and was ready for action. Then, that someone was in view. Nina.

Nina: Percy?

Me: Yeah?

Nina sat down beside me.

Nina: You alright?

Me: Yeah, why wouldn't I be?

Nina: Patricia.

Me: Red head? I-I don't know. I mean, usually when I go to a new school, I make like one or two friends. Then some kids start to tease me because I have dyslexia. But no one would ever consider me as a con-artist. Especially on the first day.

Nina: Well, the first day is actually tomorrow.

Me: He he.

Nina: And Patricia is just Patricia. She treated me like that when I first came here. Her friend Joy disappeared and I coincidentally came on that same day. I was supposed to start on day one, but I had to find out about the scholarship blah blah blah. She thought that I had something to do with her disappearance so, she kept doing stuff. She locked me in the attic once which was forbidden. But I don't know about what just happened.

Me: Well, she probably saw the news. It was international anyway.

Nina: But if she saw then the the rest of the house saw it too. But, they didn't react like Eddie and I did when we first meet you.

Me: True.

Nina: Can I tell you something?

Me: Shoot.

Nina: I know this might sound crazy, but, I feel like we have some sort of connection. I mean, we just met and u feel like I can tell you anything.

Me: Me too. Hey, when I left, was someone yelling in Greek?

Nina: That's what I was speaking?

Me: Wait, that was you? Since when did you learn Greek?

Nina: I don't.

Me: Nina? Can I show you something?

Nina: Sure.

I stood up and held out my hand. She took it and stood up. I took out Riptide and uncapped it. Nina just stared at it in shock.

Nina: You're not gonna hurt me, right?

Me: No.

After I said that, we heard a scream. Then Nina took Riptide and ran with it.
