Please forgive any mistakes in grammar or dictation because I m not from America. Also, I have no idea how their schools are so forgive any mistakes there,too.

  Well. It's impossible you don't know me but I will introduce myself. I am Ryan, the most popular guy in Goode High. I 'm the best at all sports and of course captain of the football team. The girls are drooling at me all the time, but I have already a girlfriend, Jenny, the most popular girl in school.
  Now, suppose I have to tell you about the situation in the country. It seems that greek mythology was real all this time and so are it's gods. It's gods, who have kids with mortals, demigods, who go to some special summer camps.  Apparently, there were wars with some bad guys...Titans I think? And giants and a big woman whose name started with G... and those demigods kids saved the day or something. They must be cool guys.
  Well, all these was a shock to all the country. But me and Jenny...we don't care. We already rule Goode High. After the reveal of the gods we just ensured our reign by telling everyone that I m a son of Zeus and she is a daughter of Aphrodite. All those stupid servants - I mean, students - actually believe it. Even some teachers don't dare to oppose me! I 'm the absolute king of this school!
                                  ...

  I was walking in the hallway with my two faithful minions -err...friends- searching for any stupid nerd to play with. I scanned the kids around me, who moved quickly out of my way, when I spotted the kid I used to play with. It was a thin boy who was always dressed in black head to toe. A scrawny goth kid. The perfect victim! He had his back turned on me, looking at his locker.
"Hey, you!" I called. The students around us stopped whatever they were doing to take a look at my victim. Some even shot at him looks of pity. Good, they should pity him.
He turned casually. When he first arived at the school he had gained a team of fangirls... Which I couldn't let happen. This was one of the reasons I bullied him. The other reason was that unlike others he hadn't broke yet! He acted as if I was something unimportant. Can you imagine!?
"Oh. Hey Ryan." he said calmly.
" Oh stop play it brave, loser. You are afraid by the son of Zeus like everyone here." I said with a smile on my face.
Nico  -that's my victim's name- rolled his eyes. My minions gasped. Nobody dared to roll his eyes at me! I started to get angry.
"Who's that?" I asked when a photo inside the locker caught my attention. It showed my victim at a younger age - ten years old maybe? - with an older girl. They were so much alike, I figured out they must be siblings.
"Do you have a sister DiAngelo?"
"Yes, and then he hummed to himself, "She is dead". His voice wasn't angry or scared, but kind of sad, like he was in his little world and didn't care what did I say.  Did I mention that...nobody dares to ignore me!? Time for action!
"Excuse me? Did you kill her DiAngelo?"
For one moment Nico looked like he wanted to kill me. He narrowed his eyes at me and - oh my gods - these black eyes now made me want to run away from that boy and hide.
  But then Nico seemed to calm down, his eyes lost that scary look and I regained my confidence. He turned his back at me, obviously  decided to ignore me, but, as I have already told you, nobody dares to ignore me. Of course, some of my victims try at first, but then I break them. This Nico kid would be no exception!
"I bet you did, I continued, because she was a loser like you.- my victim froze -  A little, stupid wimp -"
Nico DiAngelo turned abrubtly.

"What. Did. You. Say. About. My. Sister?" he asked.
  He was in rage, looking at me right in the eye without giving any attention at the crowd who was staring at us. It was just me and him, now... The boy had an angry, determined look on his face and his eyes carried enough pain and experiences for a lifetime -but that was impossible. This kid was same age as me, maybe even younger! I was starting to really freak out, but I tried to keep up my image.
I laughed nervously "Are you deaf too? I said she must be an ugly, unimpotant idiot-"
"Nobody insults my sister!" Nico shouted as he charged at me. In a matter of seconds I found myself with my back in the wall and the point of a black sword in my neck. It was then when I realized that the shadows had lengthened, like they tried to reach and help Nico, who was on the other side of the sword. I tried not to show how terrified I was, by saying something really smart like " Oh little Nico is angry?"
"How dare you! I am Nico DiAngelo, son of Hades, Hero of Olympus! I have fought monters, Titans, Giants, Gaea! And as for my sister, Bianca, you could never reach her no matter how hard you would try, liar! She died a hero!"
  If a pin had fallen in the floor that moment, it would have echoed through all the school. Everyone looked completely stunned, some kids were opening and closing their mouths in shock. The kid I bullied was a demigod! And a son of Hades, no less! A strange feeling showered over me for the first time: shame. I was the one who was lying to everyone about being a son of Zeus, and here I was now, slammed into the wall by the kid who I bullied, a son of Hades and one of the greatest demigods in our country... It was then when I realized my mouth had been hanging open in complete shock and I quickly closed it.
" You dare to call yourself a son of Zeus! But you know nothing of being a demigod!" Nico continued "You know nothing" he repeated and then opened his mouth to say something else when a voice echoed through the hall "Nico!"

  Everybody turned to see a blond boy with blue eyes, I had never seen before, running towards us. Like, he just ran towards a son of Hades with a sword.
  This boy must be crazy.

  Nico didn't seem to notice at first. He still looked at me, rage in his eyes, but then the mysterious boy called his name again. Nico blinked and surprised he turned to face him, just in time he reached us.
"Oh my gods, Nico! What do you think you are doing? Are you hurt?" he started chiding the demigod, searching for wounds , while all the school was watching in complete shock.
"Will? What are you doing here?" asked Nico just a little less surprised than the rest of the students. He lowered his sword and put it back on a seath on his belt I had never noticed before. That allowed me to walk away quietly.
"It was supposed to be a surprise, like you were supposed to keep a low profile! How do you always manage to get yourself in trouble when I m not there?" the blond boy, obviously Will, continued  scolding Nico while he took an energy bar out of his backpack and handed it to Nico. "Here take this. We are going back to Camp."
  And then he grabbed Nico's hand and led him out of the school. A while before they reached the door, Jenny asked the blond boy " Eh who are you exactly?"
Will smiled at her "Will Solace, son of Apollo".
And they just left.
