Percy's POV
I woke up to bacon sizzling and eggs frying. I sighed, put on a t-shirt and shorts and went to brush my teeth. As I headed downstairs, I saw a streak of blond hair. Of course it would be Annabeth. She was wearing a ruby read Hollister shirt with white jean capris and of course, her owl earrings and camp necklace.
"Hey. 'Morning," I greeted.
She smiled warmly, and nodded "You too, Seaweed Brain."
I groaned, rolled my eyes and just filled my plate as Nico came down. THUD! I was pretty sure Thalia was on the bed and Grover was moaning on the floor now.
"Good pancakes," Nico called a little louder.
Grover tripped over his fake feet as he clomped downstairs.
"You're welcome," Thalia and Nico both yelled.
I just rolled my eyes as we ate.
"So…how are we gonna get there? Blackjack?" Grover asked.
"Yes, of course, Grover. A flying horse wouldn't get anyone suspicious," Annabeth answered.
Grover grimaced a little then reminded, "It wouldn't. The mist."
"I think the Cullens know something is up," Nico said.
Then Thalia answered, "I asked my dad to get Apollo and Hermes to get us a car. It's a Prius and it's in the driveway." She turned to smile at me, remembering Paul's.
"Let's go," Nico called as he stepped into his black vans.
We all stepped outside and there was the blue Prius.
"I'll drive," I reached my hand out to the handle when Annabeth smacked it. "Hey!"
"Yes, Percy. Of course you should drive, especially since we don't know where the school is and you have ADHD and dyslexia," Annabeth ranted.
"Gee, what's with the sarcasm and 'of courses'," I muttered. Annabeth just rolled her eyes when a Volvo and convertible turned into our driveway.
Edward jumped out. "Would you like us to show you the way?"
I just shrugged and said, "Sure." I turned to smirk to Annabeth who just rolled her eyes.
We all piled into the car and followed them.
I turned into the parking lot and decided to park next to the Cullens.
We got out of the car as the Cullens walked towards us. "The school got built after a flood so it's pretty new. You know, the crazy storm cycle thing," Jasper informed.
We all glanced at each other when Emmett noticed. "Something wrong?"
"Oh, nothing," Annabeth stated, but we could all hear the stammer in her voice, probably thinking of Luke. I patted her on the back and she gave me a thankful look. I looked around, expecting amused glances but I guess there was nothing funny about the fight against Kronos. The Cullens looked confused. "Um, her mom disappeared during a storm,"
Annabeth snorted quietly while Thalia and Grover pressed their lips together. I turned around and gave them my best, 'don't-you-start-crying-not-all-of-your-parents-should-be-dead-it-sounds-suspicious' look.
Emmett muttered sorry and we all headed for the front office.
"Well, good luck," Bella stated and she and Edward, holding hands, turned to the cafeteria. The rest followed. Apparently, that was a 'get to school early' privilege.
"Hello, I'm Thalia Grace, "she grimaced slightly. "We're new here," she pointed to us.
"Ah, yes. I'm Ms. Homes. Here are your schedules," She gave us each a sheet of paper and wished us good luck as we headed for the cafeteria.
Annabeth and Thalia had the same schedule:
Period 1: Algebra
Period 2: Cultural Studies
Period 3: History
Period 4: English
Period 5: Biology
Period 6: Free
LUNCH
Period 7: Gym
Period 8: Homeroom
The rest of us had the same schedule:
Period 1: English
Period 2: Cultural Studies
Period 3: Biology
Period 4: Gym
Period 5: Math
Period 6: Free
LUNCH
Period 7: History
Period 8: Homeroom
"Huh, apparently Chiron talked to Ms. Homes," Grover stated after we saw our schedules.
"I know there shouldn't be any," Annabeth started as she sat down. "But we should still make sure. I have my Yankees cap and Daedalus laptop. Seaweed Brain, you got your pen?" she turned to me and I nodded, rolling my eyes.
"Pinecone Face, your bracelet?" I added, for fun. She made a face and nodded. "Nico, your bottle cap?" (cap turn into sword) Nico nodded.
Annabeth smiled in approval. "Well see you in Cultural Studies," she smirked and pulled Thalia up.
All of our classes before lunch were fine. For introductions, all we said were our names, where we were from (West Virginia) and for fun, we added we were part Greek. In Cultural Studies, we learned about Egypt. What a snore. The Cullens were all in that class. They looked bored too.
At lunch, the Cullens motioned for us to sit with them.
"So, how is your first day so far?" Alice asked.
"Good," Annabeth replied politely.
For fun, I decided to add, "CS was a bore though," I snickered.
Thalia shot me a dark look just before thunder rumbled.
I snorted but I noticed a frightened glance between Alice and Edward. Edward's grip on Bella tightened and she rolled her eyes.
Hey boss, get suspended yet?
I jumped and quickly said, "I gotta go,"
"Percy…" Annabeth and Grover said in an alarm tone.
"Uh, my phone just vibrated. Must be something wrong with my horse," I struggled with an excuse. mortals and demi-gods would understand.
"Oh," Thalia's confused face was gone. "Go then, I know how much you love your horse." She smirked.
I just rolled my eyes and quickly walked out of the cafeteria, and then I ran towards the woods.
"What are you doing here?" I hissed, after I spotted Blackjack.
Oh, hey boss, Chiron's got a message. Apparently, I'm the messaging hove. Get it? Horse and dove? He paused.
"Where did he learn all these bad jokes? Must be Tramp the new Pegasus," I muttered. What, do you need my permission to speak?" I mocked playfully.
Oh, Chiron said the Cullens are the unusual people. You just gotta find out what they are and then it's mission accomplished boss.
"Oh, okay. Got it. See you later Blackjack," I nodded, and then sprinted back.
Lunch was almost over but everyone was still there. Fortunately, no one stared, at least, not a lot.
"So…how's Blackjack?" Nessie asked as I sat down
My eyes widened a little but then replied, "Fine. Guys, can I talk to you alone?"
After they mumbled 'excuse mes' I pulled them out of the café. "Chiron said the Cullens are it. We just have to find out what they are. Oh, and Tramp has got to go. Blackjack has the worst jokes now. Did you know a hove is a horse slash dove? Anyways, ideas?"
"We can do a secret for secret," Nico suggested as everyone else just rolled their eyes. Well, it matters to me. I'll just tell them the jokes from now on then.
Thunder again. This time, I heard waves lapping the shore and the ground rumbled just a bit. "Would you guys stop blowing this? Everyone else kept the secret for like a millennia and then, suddenly we come along. Plus, my dad's getting mad." Thalia was upset, but it looked like more towards Zeus.
"The mist helps, Pinecone Face," Nico said with disgust. Apparently, he didn't see Thalia wasn't exactly annoyed with him.
"You can at least keep it down, Dead Boy," Thalia glared.
I gave the "uh oh" glance to Grover. He missed it, but luckily, Annabeth saw.
"We have class," Annabeth hissed.
"We can ditch," I shot back.
"Knowledge is very important. Plus, it would mean a lot to me, "Annabeth said in a sweeter tone.
Everyone else snickered. "Says the daughter of Athena," but I gave in. "Fine," I said louder.
Bella's POV
We were just talking when suddenly; Percy jumped and said, "I gotta go."
Grover and Annabeth seemed nervous all of a sudden.
Then, he ranted on about how his horse needed help. Why he put an accent on horse, I have no idea.
Thalia smirked about how he loved his horse. Something was definitely going on I thought, pushing my shield out of the way when Percy scampered away.
"So, what's the horse's name?" Rosalie questioned.
"Blackjack," Nico replied with a little bit of disgust.
Apparently Jacob picked it up. "You don't like Blackjack?" We needed all the information we could get.
"Uh, they don't get along," Grover filled in. Then, they all made the faintest snort, as if there was more to that.
We just nodded.
I was just about to end the awkward silence when Percy came running in, panting. A few kids looked our way.
"So…how's Blackjack?" Nessie questioned innocently.
Percy's eyes widened a little but then replied, "Fine."
"Guys, can I talk to you alone?" Percy asked. They all mumbled excuse mes and left the café.
We all raised our eyebrows and focused on listening.
"Chiron said the Cullens are it." Percy started.
Who was Chiron? Did he know our secret? Great, that's just what we need, another Volturi attack. I thought to Edward. He nodded slightly, his grip tightening even more, if that was possible.
"We just have to find out what they are. Oh, and Tramp has got to go. Blackjack has the worst jokes now. Did you know a hove is a horse slash dove? Anyways, ideas?"
We all breathed a sigh of relief.
Wasn't Blackjack a horse? How would Percy understand?
"We can do a secret to secret," Nico stated.
I looked around. We all desperately wanted to know, but we couldn't put them in danger. I couldn't put Nessie and Edward and everyone else in danger from the Volturi either.
Thunder roared again but this time, I thought I heard waves and the ground rumbling near Percy and his friends. Alice looked scared. Jasper rubbed her back. And Edward…well I think you know what he did.
She didn't see it coming huh? I thought to Edward.
He shook his head.
"But there's no thunderstorm, just thunder," he replied to me.
"Would you guys stop blowing this? Everyone else kept the secret for like a millennia and then, suddenly we come along. Plus, my dad's getting mad," Thalia complained.
I looked around again. Who was her dad? Secret? Millennia?
"The mist helps, Pinecone Face," Nico retorted.
"You can at least keep it down, Dead Boy," Thalia shot back.
What was with the insults? They didn't sound like much.
"Really?" Nico seemed like he was about to push something when Annabeth and Percy calmed them down.
Suddenly, Annabeth hissed, "We have class."
The bell didn't ring yet so this probably was going to be a long conversation.
"We can ditch," Percy shot back.
Emmett chuckled silently.
"Knowledge is very important. Plus, it would mean a lot to me," Annabeth slowly changed to a sweeter tone.
Emmett's chuckle wasn't so silent now.
Grover, Thalia, and Nico snickered as Percy muttered, "Says the daughter of Athena."
I looked around for the third time. Everyone just shook their head in confusion and annoyance.
"Fine," Percy sighed.
They didn't come back so I guess they headed for class.
"C'mon love," Edward took my hand.
Can we ditch? I looked at him with pleading eyes and he sighed.
"It's the first day," he reminded.
"But we're sophomores. The teachers know we know everything," I reasoned, then addedin my head, me, with the best puppy dog eyes, muttering please over and over again.
Edward's eyes softened immediately, his eyes full of love, adoration and tenderness, and then turned to everyone else. "I think Bella and I need to talk."
Alice, Rosalie and Nessie both nodded in agreement. This was big. Then they had a smug look, knowing they would get their way. Edward snorted but we headed for the woods, next to the school.
Percy's POV
The rest of the school wasn't bad. It was the first day I went through without getting in trouble. Of course, none of the kids picked on us either. Guess the older you get, the more mature. I doubt some people like Nancy Bobofit would mature though.
We all met at the Prius and noticed the Cullens were all there.
"Looks like we don't have any other classes together," Nico replied.
"Oh, it's not that. We ditched," Emmett replied, grinning. I noticed how he was looking at Annabeth, whose face was a mask of horror.
"Lighten up, Annabeth," Thalia nudged her.
Annabeth rolled her eyes and nodded and then turned to the Cullens. "Sorry, my mom raised me…" a few of us snorted quietly. "…believing knowledge is very important." Annabeth sniffed, but then seemed to know something she said was wrong since she lowered her eyes in shame. I didn't really pick it up though. Guess being a child of Athena had its ups; I liked controlling water better. Guess it was really your choice.
Bella and Edward shared a glance.
Bella's POV
Didn't her mom die? Why wasn't she crying like before? Why did some of them snort? I repeated my thoughts to Edward. He nodded slightly.
"Well, see you guys tomorrow. Wonder if the thunderstorm will start," Nessie add casually.
They froze a little, and then looked at Thalia. We all exchanged glances. Guess we were doing that a lot. While we did, Thalia looked like she was praying.
"Well, see you. It's so nice of you guys to help us around," Percy nodded and then got in the car.
"Way to go, Nessie," Rosalie high fived her.
Edward looked like he was going to say something when suddenly. Nico gasped.
"Nico? What did you hear? See? Did your dad tell you something?" Annabeth asked frantically.
"The Cullens…they shouldn't be alive. They're sort of…reborn," Nico replied.
All of us had our mouth open. How did he know that? Who was his dad? Who were their parents, seriously?
We scrambled into the cars. Edward got us home in a minute while I called Carlisle.
"So Nico said, 'the Cullens, they shouldn't be alive. They're sort of…reborn?'" Carlisle recapped after we explained over the dining table.
We all nodded. "I think we need to find out about their parents. Annabeth was crying in the morning about her mom. But when she talked about her mom in the afternoon, she was all fine. Then Thalia was all 'my dad's mad'," I suggested.
"Hey!" Edward suddenly said. "Didn't they say something about riding Blackjack? How would Blackjack get here? Plus, it sounded like Percy could talk to the horse. Great, I'm turning crazy."
"You were always crazy, bro," Emmett smacked Edward's back. His voice wasn't exactly teasing though.
Carlisle and Esme raised their eyebrows.
"And Nico said something about secret for a secret," Jasper added.
"When Nessie asked about the rain, Thalia looked like she was praying. They also said CS was a bore, like double meaning, like us. Then there was thunder," Jacob pointed out.
"Alice hasn't seen any of these thunderstorms has she?" Esme questioned.
Alice shook her head, looking paler than usual and scared. "What if I can't see weather anymore? What if lightning hits us? We'll die. There's fire," she suddenly got a blank look and her face was relieved. "It's sunny this weekend,"
Jasper relaxed.
"Wait a second!" Carlisle suddenly yelled. Everyone jumped and I, for fun, put a shield around Carlisle, not wanting Edward to know first. He sent me a pleading look but I just shook my head as he muttered "Stubborn."
Emmett high fived me when he realized what was going on.
"Chiron is the son of Kronos," was all he whispered.
I was so surprised, I dropped the shield.
"It could be a coincidence, can't it?" Jacob stated with nervousness in his voice.
"Well, if it's true, Thalia's dad would be Zeus. Nico's dad would be Hades and Annabeth's mom may be Athena," he whispered.
We were all gaping at Carlisle.
"Uh, you really think that? Maybe they're all wacko," Emmett tried to joke.
Thunder rumbled, the ground shook and waves smashed into the shore. Emmett jumped. "Never mind, I believe you," he whimpered.
It was a tense time, but you gotta admit. Emmett whimpering is quite a sight.
"Need your teddy bear?" I teased.
Emmett suddenly shot a look at Edward and Rosalie. "You didn't."
"Uh, Bella was joking, Hercules," Edward's lips twitch, then realizing his comeback, he grimaced.
Suddenly, there was a gust of wind. I looked around. "What are we doing here?" We all looked confused. Rosalie seemed confused, but at my statement. She looked around and saw our confused faces.
"We were just talking about the new kids," she said, a little scared. (foreshadowing! Or whatever)
"We were?" I asked, then shrugged and headed towards the library.
