"Are you sure I have to come back today?" Percy asked his step-father, Paul as they drove to Goode High.

"Percy, you've been out of school for months now, you need to go back some time. Plus, don't you want to see your friends again?" Paul replied.

"I guess so," conceded Percy.

Ever since Hera "helped" Percy by magically kidnapping him, Percy had not been in school. He had never had an easy time at school, so he wasn't exactly excited to be going back. After all compared to high school, saving the world was a picnic.

When the duo, English teacher and student, arrived at Goode, there were still a few students loitering on the steps of the building, but most people had already gone inside and were talking at their lockers and in the hall.

Percy was searching for a familiar face in the crowd of students when he heard a voice shout, "Percy Jackson! Where the hell have you been!" behind him.

This voice happened to belong to Chloe, a petite girl with light brown hair and pale skin, who was also one of Percy's best friends at Goode. Surrounding her were several other people, most of which Percy's best friends. There was Tucker, Percy's teammate on the swim team, Jules, an amazing artist, Max, the most relaxed person you will ever meet, and a tall-ish blond girl that Percy didn't recognise.

"Hi . . ." Percy greeted tentatively. He wasn't sure what expect after getting shouted at by Chloe. A chorus of "hey"s and "hi"s greeted him back.

"How and/or where have you been?" inquired Jules. She like the rest of her friends had been very worried during Percy's absence. Paul claimed to know where Percy was, but it was obvious that he was lying.

"Good. I was traveling with my family." relied Percy. He and Annabeth had decided that was the most accurate way to explain his absence without actually telling people what happened. "What about you guys?"

"We've been fine, but the important thing is that you're going to be on the team now that you're back, right Perc?" demanded Tucker. Percy was the best swimmer in the school, and without him, the team hadn't won a single meet.

"Of course I am." Percy assured his friend, and they high fived.

A loud "hem, hem" came from the blond girl, who up 'till then had been standing there quietly, and Chloe smacked her head. "Oops! Sorry, manners. Percy this is Rebekah Mikaelson. Rebekah, this is Percy Jackson." Chloe quickly said.

Percy waved at the new girl. "Nice to meet you, Rebekah."

"Charmed," the blond responded.

"Wait! You're British?" exclaimed a confused Percy, who had not expected the accent.

"Yes I am, however could you tell?" asked Rebekah sarcasm dripping from every word.

"Well you ha. . . Oh." Percy responded. He had thought it to be a legitimate question until he saw Jules and Max laughing at him. "So, when did you move to the States?"

Rebekah smiled. "I've been here a while; I just haven't lost my accent yet." Honestly she had no idea why she still had her accent, but for some reason she did.

"Rebekah started Goode about three weeks ago." Chloe informed Percy.

"Oh." He replied.

___________________________________________________________________________

Percy had just had math and was basically brain dead by now, so he was very relived when he saw his next class was ancient Greek. When he entered the classroom, he saw the only empty seat was next to that new girl, Rebekah. Said girl raised her eyebrows at him as if she was asking him why he was not sitting down. He hurried to sit before he could look even more awkward because by now the whole class was looking at him while he stood in the doorway.

Once he had taken the desk next to Rebekah, the teacher, Ms. Connor, started taking roll. When she arrived at Percy's name, she did a double take when he responded "Here!" She had never had him in class before because of his recent absence and nervous that he would not be able to catch up. After all Ancient Greek was a very difficult language.

"Since we just finished our unit on common present tense verb conjugation, we will be starting our unit on the Greek religion and vocabulary that applies to it," announced Ms. Connor.

"This is going to be so hard," Percy thought. "It's not like I've saved their Olympian behinds twice."

"Can anyone tell us who the twelve Olympians are? Mr. Jackson?" Ms. Connor asked.

Percy rolled his eyes. He hated cold calling, but for once he actually knew the answer. "Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Artemis, Apollo, Hephaestus, Ares, Aphrodite, Athena, Demeter, Hermes and Dionysus."

Ms. Connor nodded. "Good. Miss Mikaelson can you tell me the names of the god of love and the goddess of revenge?"

"Nemesis and Eros," Rebekah answered. She had been around long enough to be fully versed in most of the world's religions.

"Correct. Now . . ." As Ms. Connor kept talking, Percy looked over at Rebekah. "How did she know that? I even had to think about it!" Percy thought.

He continued to stare at Rebekah until she whispered at him, "Do I have something on my face, or are you just struck by my beauty?" His staring was making her marginally uncomfortable and annoyed.

Percy quickly looked back at Ms. Connor, but his blushing cheeks gave away his embarrassment at his somewhat weird/creepy behavior being noticed. The class ended without any further embarrassment for Percy, and both he and Rebekah started to walk to lunch after the bell rang.

At lunch, Chloe chattered away about some blond new girl, and how everyone was talking about how pretty and smart she was.

"Chloe, do you even know her name?" inquired Jules. Chloe often enjoyed gossiping without knowing any of the facts.

"No, but I do know she takes all advanced classes and has these really cool grey eyes," Chloe informed the rest of the group.

Chloe's answer caused Rebekah to snort and raise her eyebrows at her friend's lack of information, but then again she was used to Caroline's amazing talent for gossip and omniscience. "I think her name was something like Annabell or Annabeth." Rebekah supplied.

"Wait! What?!" exclaimed Percy. "I can't be," he thought. "It can't be my Annabeth."

"Yeah, I had Maths with her. What's the big deal?" asked Rebekah. As far as she knew, this girl was new to the school, so why was Percy reacting like this?

"Yeah, what's the big deal, Seaweed Brain?" teased a familiar voice behind Percy.

Thought I would end Troll style with a cliffhanger. Thank you so much for reading. I will try to get chapter two up within a week. Please review with any thoughts, ideas and criticism.
