Emily's POV
I was walking to school with my best friends Kayla Miller, Mike Paley, and Percy Jackson. We were all joking around when the school bell had rung we all had the same 1st period class: english with Mr.Blofis, Percy's stepdad. About 5 minutes after class started the intercom turned on:
Teachers and students pleas excuse the interruption all staff and students must report immediately to the auditorium for an important assembly.
When we got to the auditorium the only seats left were the back. There 12 people on stage and when Percy saw them he turned kind of pale. We all sat down and Percy started sinking lowere and lower in his seat. " Your trying to hide from them" I whispered in his ear. "What? Am not!" "Are too!"
We stopped talking when the principal walked on stage. "Attention everybody! Many of you may know about the Greek Gods and their myths! But today! I am happy tell you they are real! Ladies and Gentlemen, the 12 Olympians!" he handed the microphone to a man on the end who was wearing a pin striped suit. "Thank you everybody! We are very pleased to be here with all of you!" his voice boomed. "uh huh," I heard Percy mumble. "Excuse me" I whispered. He didn't respond. The man with the microphone went on. "We will now introduce ourselves and then tell why we are here. I am Zeus, God of the sky!"
He passed it over to the gorgeous woman next him.
" I am Hera goddess of marriage"
"I am Aphrodite goddess of love and beauty!" a woman with flawless hair and makeup said
"I am Posiedon God of the sea"
"I am Athena goddess of wisdom and battle strategy!"
"I am Ares God of war!"
"I am Apollo, god of prophecies, healing, music, and archery! That's right oh yeah I know I'm Awsome!"
A girl with silvery eyes and brown hair smacked him on the upside of his head. "Ow" she took the microphone
"I am Artemis goddess of the hunt and the moon and twin sister to the idiot over there," she said pointing to Apollo
"I am Hephesteaus, god of the forge and fire!"
"I am Hades, god of death and the underworld!"
"I am Hesita, goddess of the home and hearth."
"I am Hermes, god of thrives, speed, travelers, and messaging."
"I am Demeter, goddess of the harvest"
"Now," said the dude with a blinding white smile I think whose name I think is Apollo. "We would like call up particular student who goes to your school." I looked over at Percy who was slowly sinking down into his chair. "Now," Apollo said "Percy Jackson please come to the stage" I looked over at him. He was slumped down so low his head barely came above the chair hight which was saying something considering he was 6ft tall. "Percy you can sink in your chair but you can't turn invisible," Apollo said. "Your not Annabeth," Percy stayed silent. "Percy, do I need to introduce you with haiku?" Percy shot up out of his chair "No!" "Oh come on Percy, my haiku is not that bad." he "yes it is," all the gods mumbled "come on now Percy get up here," Percy got out of his seat and slowly trudged to the the stage and took a seat. Suddenly a group of about 6 teens fell from the sky. Their landing on the stage was not a pretty sight.
"can't breathe," "repair boy get off me!" "I'm trying pipes bit super man us sitting on me!" "where's my superman?!" "hey beauty queen" "thals you sitting on my head," I'll get off as soon as owl head is no longer crushing my back"
What the heck was this repair boy? beauty queen? super man? Suddenly my thoughts were interupted. "Seaweed Brain!" suddenly Percy was tackled my a girl with honey blonde hair and stormy grey eyes. "Hey wise girl, you know what got an audience right?" "Oh woops," It was so hard not to burst out laughing. I knew this girl was probably his girlfriend. But she called him Seaweed Brain? That was just to funny, Finally the kids on stage had sorted out their dog pile problem. "Now!" said Zeus his voice booming through the room. "We will tell you why we are here, I have a letter from the fates to read to you:
Dear Olympians,
Please read this stack of books we left and do not leave until every book is finished. Time is stopped so take is long as you want.
Sincerely,
The Fates
