           Hi my name is Annabeth Chase. I'm 17 years old and right now I am on my way to New York. You see, my dad Fredrick got a new job offer so he's moving my whole family across the US. I have lived in San Francisco my whole life. I live with my dad, step mom Hellen ( who I don't really get along with) and my 2 annoying little twin brothers Bobby and Mathew. My real mom Athena died of cancer when I was 7 and 2 years after that my dad got remarried to Hellen and had Bobby and Mathew.  Hellen and I don't see eye to eye on a lot of things. She doesn't like how I remind my father of his first marriage. I look just like my mom with long blond hair that has princess curls. We have the same stormy grey eyes and athletic build. I'm around average height. I was also very lucky to inherit my moms love for learning. I was top in my old school for the best GPA.
       So I guess you could say that's the main reason we don't really get along. But lately we have been trying to get along better. Something my dad said about "New city, new start."
          Anyway, I just arrived at my new house in upper New York. I'll have to attend Goode High School on Monday, and it was currently Saturday at 6:35 p.m.

*Monday morning
         I woke up to the sound of my Step mother calling me down for breakfast. Normally I would have and alarm clock but that was deep down in one of the many other boxes in my room that I still have to unpack. Even though I spent all Sunday unpacking there were still many more.
            As I walked down stairs a wave of air that smelt like bacon hit my nose. At the table in the kitchen was my dad reading the newspaper while drinking coffee. Bobby and Mathew were fighting over the cereal on the other side of the table. Helen was at the stove flipping the bacon and eggs.
         "Good morning honey! I hope you slept well. Your plate of foods on the table." Helen said without turning around. I quickly ate my breakfast remembering that I have to be at school early for a tour this morning.
                    ~~~~~~~
        I looked up towards my new school. There was a giant staircase leading to the huge main double doors. The building was a brownish red brick. It looked about 3 stories high. I could see a few groups of kids here and there but besides that it was mostly empty.
        Finding the main office was easy. All I had to do was turn down what I'm guessing is the main hallway and there it was.  As I entered I saw a lady behind a desk. I figured she was the secretary so I walked up to her. She was a young woman with long curly hair and long red finger nails. She had glasses and a few freckles.
        '"Hi. I'm Annabeth Chase, I just transferred her from San Francisco. I'm here for my tour." I said.  She looked at a sticky note on her desk.
         "Awww yes! Your tour guide will be Thalia Grace." She said smiling. As if on cue the office door opens. In steps a girl with black hair. She was wearing all black. She had spiky hair and freckles. She had a Death to Barbies t-shirt on with black ripped jeans. She wore combat boots with a few black bracelets. She also had on lightning earrings and black eyeliner. She looked like she was going for the whole punk look. But the only thing that threw it off where her electric blue eyes.  They were the most vibrant blue eyes I've ever seen. She stuck out her hand to me to shake.
      "Hi I'm Thalia Grace. Nice to meet you!" She said smiling.
       "Nice to meet you, I'm Annabeth Chase."  I said shaking her hand. 
       "Ok Annabeth, ready to start the tour?" She asked gesturing to the door.
      "Sure." I said following her out the door.
