A/N: Thanks for all of your reviews! I won't be able to post as often during the school year, sorry. Enjoy! Ok, I'm pretty sure this was Percy Jackson, right? Where Sally comes to pick him up at kindergarten and she finds him with a big snake, yeah? Ok well I'm writing it from his POV instead of his interpretation from his mother's reactions.

7. First encounter with an animal

The kindergarten class was really fun. It took me a while to get used to the fact that my mother wasn't going to pick me up in a few minutes of dropping me off, but once I got used to the routine-I had a pretty fun time at school.

Right now, it was nap time and the teacher put everybody down for twenty minutes. During this, I never slept, I just watched the ceiling or others make embarrassing noises as they shifted in their sleep.

The teacher sat on a stool and read some boring looking book. It had no pictures so of course she was going to pick something like that. I didn't like her that much. Some of my other friends told me their teachers were more fun.

While I was lost in my thoughts, I felt something slither on my feet and I sat up. The teacher looked up and uncrossed her legs and looked at me over her glasses.

I watched her touch her finger to her lip and she frowned at me, then went back to her book.

I lay back on the ground and blinked my eyes. The same slithering feeling came back and I felt it wrap around my foot. A slight hissing sound came from my feet and it got closer and I looked down.

Laying right at my waist now, was a green python. It had wrapped around my leg and was now starting to pick up my kindergarten body. I sat up and stroked the head of the snake and he stuck out his forked tongue at me.

I pet his head and the lights switched on. I saw some parents ready to pick up their

"Alright, kids! Wake up, your parents are here to-" The teacher looked at me and made the most horrifying screech I heard. It filled the room and everybody looked to me. The girls next to me screamed and ran for their mothers.

I thought it was kind of cool. I had a pet snake and he liked me. He was giving me a big hug, and that was when I saw my mother run from the crowd.

"Percy!" I screamed and lifted me from underneath my arms and backed away. She hugged me and bounced up and down a little bit as she looked at the snake and I saw the parent's scared faces.

A/N: Thanks for the reviews! Hope you like it!
