Meet Demigod Families

Meet: Joshua Ramirez-Arellano's mother: Reyna Ramirez-Arellano

Don't ask or wonder who the dad is, because I don't even know. But anyways, Reyna is an Olympic gymnast, just because she was the most fitting person. So, enjoy!

Ms. Fourraker

Hello everyone, my name is Jenn Fourraker, and I am a gym teacher. I teach many gym classes, and I also coach the grade 12 gymnastics team. It saddens me to see that the gymnastics is almost all girls, with only one boy. And of course, that boy is made fun of by all the other boys for doing a "girl sport". God, kids can be mean. Although none of the girls made fun of him... they kind of just flirted with him, or left him alone.. (Gymnastics is a great way to build muscles!) When I was a kid, boys did gymnastics all the time. In fact, when I was on my high school gymnastics team, there were a couple more boys than girls, although that may have just been my school... sorry, not the point.

So today we were doing gymnastics in gym class, and I could hear all the boys complaining. I searched around the gym for the boy who was on the gymnastics, but he was no where to be found. I frowned. He was one of my favourite students because he never skipped classes and was always excited, no matter what sport we were doing. And I even had a surprise for the kids. An Olympic gymnast, who was an old friend of mine from high school, was coming today to show the kids some tricks and help teach them, and was staying for gymnastics practice after school. Josh would be so excited.

Oh. Did I not tell you who the boy on the gymnastics team was? Sorry. His name is Josh Ramirez. Well, he says he has a hyphenated last name, but he doesn't use the second name in school. I wonder why? Sorry, off topic once again.

"Alright class! Today we will be doing gymnastics, as you all know! But before we begin, does anyone where Joshua Ramirez is?" I shouted.

A hand peeked up. It belonged to a very shy, but extremely talented, girl on the gymnastics team named Isabel. When I called on her, her voice was so quiet that I had to strain to hear. "He said he didn't want to come today because he didn't want to be made fun of because he was good."

I sighed. Stupid teenagers who make fun of others.

"Alright. Well, that's not ok. But, we must go on with class. So today, I have a surprise for you. To help teach, we have Olympic gymnast Reyna Ramirez-Arellano. Every one please give her a round of applause!" I announced, and everyone started clapping.

Reyna walked in and waved at everyone. Her eyes scanned the crowd of students, as if searching for someone. When she was finished, she frowned, as if she couldn't find this person.

"Is everyone here?" She asked.

"We're missing one student. He's our only male member of the gymnastics team, and was afraid that the students would make fun of him. His name is Josh Ramirez." I sighed sadly.

"Excuse me for just a moment." Reyna said, and exited the room.

And, of course, one of the very fast senior boys decided to follow, so I had to run after him.

"Sheryl, you and Isabel are in charge! Make sure nothing happens!" I yelled over my shoulder as I bolted after the kid.

I found him hiding behind a corner, watching Reyna pull out her phone. I told him to go back to the gym, and I began following him, when I heard something that shocked me.

"Joshua Colton Ramirez-Arellano. Get your podex into that gym right now. I taught you better than to listen to what other people say to you. Now, if you don't get your sorry butt in that gym in the next three minutes, I will call Aurum and Argentum. And I will ground from Camp Jupiter for three weeks. You have three minutes, Ramirez-Arellano. Don't disappoint me."
