RAs we walked out to the courtyard, we met Sadie sitting under a tree, chatting with a girl.
"Sadie!," I called. Sadie broke from her conversation and looked at us.
"Oh my gods, holy Osiris!," she squealed, tackling Zia with a BIG bear hug. "I missed you," she said.
"Sadie! Oh, I missed you too!" Zia hugged her back.
"How's life?" Sadie asked her.
"It's ok, quite boring, though," Zia replied.
"We should hang out more," Sadie cheered. "Oh, and this is Thalia Grace. I just met her in English Literacy. She's really nice."
"Hi," Thalia waved. She had black short spiky hair and blue eyes, like the sky.
"Daughter of Zeus?" I blurted out.
She stared at me. "H-how do you know? Is it that obvious?
I shook my head. Then I told her Sadie, Zia and I were magicians. We knew weird stuff like Gods and Goddesses. Even Greek's. Honestly, I'm not that lazy. Sometimes I read books about myths and do research.
"And your eyes. I recognized them," I pointed out. Zia and Thalia looked pretty amazed. Sadie just rolled her eyes.
"Ok, enough with the chit-chat," she said," Thalia and I are going to sit in lunch together. Joining?"
"Good," Zia said. I nodded.
"Cool. But do you mind sitting with a bunch of my friends?" Thalia asked. She leaned closer," They're all like me, demigods, which is a mix between Greek Gods and mortals."
"Nah, never mind," Zia assured her. "It'll be fun." She smiled at Thalia. "What's your next class?"
"History," Thalia and Sadie answered in unison.
"Great! Then let's go together."

"Good morning, Mr. Bacchus." Thalia said to the history teacher who was sitting in his chair, staring hard at a piece of document.
"Good morning Miss Grace," he replied. He saw us, and asked," Oh, good morning Miss Rashid, and you two...Aha! Children of Julius Kane, an old friend of mine. Carter and Sadie, right?
Now, usually I hate when somebody said me and Sadie were learning in the same class together. Actually, Sadie's one year smaller than me. She just started school early.
"Yes Mr Bacchus," Sadie said.
"Carter, you can sit with Zia. Sadie, uh...." he pointed to a place beside a black-haired boy. We went to our places and put down our stuff.
"Now, who have learnt about myths before?" Mr. Bacchus asked.
