NO ONES POV

"And now we have officially finished our syllabus for english. Now time for some questions." said Miss Rose, a woman who was in her thirties. She was tall and lean; her hair was in a messy bun of brown hair.

Her hazel eyes scanned the room as she couldn't decide who to pick on, until they landed on a girl/boy with (h/l) (h/c) hair wearing a (f/c) hoodie. The girl/boy had their head on the desk, most likely sleeping. 

The sleeping girl/boy was Y/N, or, in Miss Rose's words 'A person who likes the fictional world more than the real one'

Miss Rose walked towards Y/N's desk and slammed her hand on the desk, this made quite a loud noise and woke up the sleeping 16-year-old. 

"Now that you are awake Mx Y/N, why don't you tell us what a haiku is?"

Y/N's POV

" Oh. Umm, well... a haiku is a Japanese pome of seventeen syllables. It is mostly written in three lines, but it can also be written in lines of five or seven. For example," I start thinking as many of Apollo's haikus came to mind 

"1. Hoodlums punch my faceI would smite them if I couldMortality blows.

2. Lester (Apollo)Still human; thanks for askingGods, I hate my life 

3. Once was Apollo Now a rat in the Lab'rinth Send help. And cronuts

4. There is no food hereMeg ate all the Swedish FishPlease get off my hearse

5. Two-headed snake dudeJamming up my quiet ride.Also, Meg's shoes stink."

Miss Rose had a look of shock painted across her face. I smiled and asked innocently "Is something the matter miss, you look quite shocked?"

"No-nothing, sit down and don't sleep now."

I nodded as I sat down. The look of shock on her face was funnier than Nico choosing to date Darth Vader in 'The Sun and the Stars'

I was still mad at her though, I was having an amazing nap and she just had to ruin it. Oh well. At least class was about to end, and I could then finally go home and relax. As if right on cue, the bell rang. 

Everyone started getting up when Miss Rose decided to drop a bomb on us, "Remember, do pages 45 to 90 of your workbook over the weekend. Have fun now." There was a collective groan in the class, but no one could complain. So, I took my bag and went toward my locker as that is where I had kept my library card. I was going to go borrow a few books from the local library as my mom had just deduced my pocket money.

*Time Skip bought to you by Percabeth underwater kiss*

I was finally home; mom and dad had left to go on another business trip. This meant that I was going to be home alone for either just the weekend, or the entirety of next month. It is most likely the latter. It always is. 

I went upstairs to my room so that I could relax and read or play genshin. When I did reach my room though, there was an orange envelope on my bed. I wasn't surprised, it must have been a letter from mom or dad saying, 

'We aRe sO sOrrY we cAN't spEND TiMe wITH YoU. WE ProMISe we WilL sPend MoRE TiMe as A Family wHen We Get BaCk'

They always say that, but they never do it, still I picked up the letter and opened it:

Dear Mx Y/N L/N, 

When you were born, there was a small magic accident due to which you were sent to a different universe. I have luckily managed to track down that universe and now I would like to tell you that you will be bought back when you go to sleep today.

Goddess of Magic and Crossroads,

Lady Hecate.

............................................................................................

What!? No. This can't be true. Mom and dad are obviously trying to prank me or something. Besides, I am not little anymore. I know that Hecate doesn't exist. She is just a Greek myth.

I try to calm myself.

Inhale

Exhale

Okay, I am calm now. 

I am also hungry. 

I put the letter with all the other letters mom and dad gave me and go downstairs to make myself a peanut butter sandwich.

*Time Skip to later tonight because I am getting lazy*

I made sure to check if I had turned off the lights around the house, which I had, and went to my room. I wore my favorite pair of pajamas.

I went to mirror to brush my hair like I always do, I obviously used my blue plastic hairbrush. I still couldn't stop thinking about the letter. I tried calling mom and dad, but the call kept going on voicemail. 

I sighed and turned off the lights as I went to bed.


So.... how is the first chapter? I hope you like it; I tried my best.

Please tell me if there are any mistakes or any place where I can improve. 

Also, I want you, yes you, to get off of your device and spend a few minutes without technology. Go drink some water, eat something, go outside. Just do something that doesn't involve technology.

Bye for now!
