Natasha POV:
Something is going on. I had orders to follow Percy and look for an opportunity to detain him, but as I followed him, he began getting more and more anxious. While he walked to school, it was obvious he knew someone was following him, but his demeanour changed drastically. When I confronted him on the beach, he was confident and calm, now he was nervous, like he was expecting someone else to be stalking him. I mentally made note of this as we approached the school gates.
He checked the time on his watch, and thankfully sat down on a bench facing school, and I could stay mixed in with the bustle of the New York street.
I watched him carefully as he pulled out a letter, took a second to read it, before leaping up and rushing into the school.
I stepped out of the crowd and followed him in at a much slower speed, as to not look out of place.
I entered the school in time to catch a glimpse of Percy disappearing inside a classroom, and shutting the door with a slam.
I sped up and found the office two doors down. I asked the secretary if I could see the security footage, flashing her my fake FBI badge. Her eyes widened and she showed me to an office with a computer I use, I thanked her and she left.
I pulled up the feed from the class I saw Percy enter, and caught the last bit of a conversation.
"-at the cabin to help me. There's a demand for me to be there, but if I do, blue oatmeal. Blue oatmeal for both of us if we don't get there soon," Percy was saying, gasping for air.
There were two teachers in the room as well, both were shocked, but one looked confused and the other looked sorrowful.
Percy opened the door, and there was a crash behind him, he said something I couldn't make out, then I switched feeds.
From the hallway camera, I saw someone in a finely pressed suit running after Percy, one teacher yelled something about him not being dead, and Percy spun into the bathroom. There was a flash of light, and whoever was chasing him paused, looked inside the bathroom, and resumed his sprint, he ran outside, but not before screaming,
"He will get you Perseus! He will have his revenge!"
I quickly copied all of the footage from the last hour, getting the parts I missed as well, onto a spare USB, and began hacking into the schools database. I let out a small laugh, the information I needed was all but handed to me. Their passwords were about as strong as glass.
The classroom belonged to a Mr.Blofis, who appeared to be one of the teachers in the room, he was also Percy's step-father. The other teacher was Mr.Henry, and appeared to have no connection to Percy. I copied this down too, and exited the office, thanking the secretary again on my way by, heading for Mr.Blofis' classroom.
