I woke up feeling sluggish after staying up so late last night with Dad and Lily reading one of my books. I rolled out of bed and got dressed, pulling on my favorite sunflower yellow sundress and sleeveless denim jacket, along with my light brown sandals with golden straps and owl necklace. I may have grown up with out a mom, but I have a very fashionable sister! I sulked out to the kitchen to find Dad, wearing a flour covered blue apron in the kitchen making breakfast. I thought I saw a spoon stirring a bowl of pancake batter by itself. What am I saying, that's crazier than Lily! I walked up to Lily, who was wearing light blue jean shorts with a pale pink blouse, a white crochet vest and a necklace that held a golden laurel and 4 clay beads with strange but unique designs, holding out my rose gold hairbrush, indicting that she wanted my to do my hair for me. I sat next to her on the couch as she put my hair in two tiny braids on each side that she held together with a miniature white bow in the back of my head, leaving the rest of my straight blonde hair hanging down in the back, all the way to my waist. 

"Time for breakfast ladies!" Dad called from the table. I sit down in my spot next to dad and across from Lily, and pour my self a glass of milk to go with my chocolate chip pancakes. Dad has his signature raspberry pancakes, and Lily blueberry pancakes. I love the way he makes them, he makes a big batch of pancake batter then adds the berries, or chocolate chips for me, just before putting them on the griddle. "You two look very beautiful today! Where I went to school we had uniforms." he told us eating his another bite of raspberry pancakes.

"Really? Where did you go to school?!" I asked, knowing nothing about my dad's past.

"I grew up in Britain, and went to a school called Hogwarts!" He said excited to share. We sat at the table talking about his school for at least a half hour and lost track of time.

"OMG, WE'RE LATE!!!!!" Lily cried out. We all ran to the car, jumped in and Dad stepped on the gas and raced us to school. We arrived just as the tarty bell rang. I ran in to the school and to class, and saw Dad leave to bring Lily to the high school. I looked up at the sign for the school. It read, Yancy  Academy 7:47! I'm late!!! Yancy Academy is a private school for troubled kids. I'm not a troubled child but I have ADHD, but it doesn't always affect me. Truth be told my Dad just wanted me going to a private school and this was the closest one, he said it's safer here, but it really isn't. I'm only 11 but I'm really smart so I skipped a grade and I'm in 6th grade.

        By the time I got to Mr. Brunner's classroom everyone was already heading out the door to board the bus for our field trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Mr. Brunner is a middle aged Latin teacher with thin hair and a wild beard. He always is in a motorized wheelchair, and smells like coffee. He's a really cool teacher, always making learning fun. He has a lot of cool stuff too.  I tried to sneak in to the line next to my best friend Luna Lovegood, who just like me, was only 10, and in the sixth grade. She is a little weird, like Lily but crazier, which is saying something. Luna has long crimped bleach blonde hair, a pale complexion, and wore a lilac sweater with a large fox on the front, despite the extremely warm weather for this time of year. Before I got to Luna Mrs. Dodd our long term math substitute from Georgia (the other chaperone) gave me the evil eye and went back to staring at a boy in my class named Percy Jackson. He had wild black hair and sea green eyes, and was always hanging out with Grover Underwood, a crippled kid in my class who is constantly picked on by Nancy Bobofit a red haired freckled brat. She's the biggest bully in the whole school! We got on the bus and I sat right behind Nancy and in front of Mrs. Dodd, who was staring so hard at the back of my head it seemed as it she was trying to put holes in them. We got to the museum and Mr. Brunner started showing us really cool artifacts and stuff that has been around for a really long time. I was right in front so I could hear him just fine but I could tell the kids behind me were  talking.     

"Shut up!" I hear someone say really loudly. It was Percy. Everyone laughed except Grover, Luna and me. Percy's face turned crimson red.

"Mr. Jackson, did you have a comment?" Mr. Brunner asked stopping his story. 

"No sir." he replied staring at the shiny marble floor. Then Mr. B asked what the picture was we were looking at. He answered that it was Kronos eating his kids, and he was the king god... Mr. B then interrupted.

"God?" He asked almost sounding offended. After that I sort of tuned out, thinking really hard about why he is offended by that. I then sort of ignored what they were saying because I knew this story like the back of my hand, I read about it. It was time for lunch so we went outside, lead by Mrs. Dodd.

"Luna, Can you see the storm brewing above us? No one else seems to notice!" I said looking at the dark grey sky then back at Luna and the rest of the class. She looked up at the sky and looked around at our weird class.

"They seemed to have noticed." Luna said in her usual dream voice pointing at two boys sitting on the side of the fountain looking at the sky. It was Percy and Grover, who was eating an apple. I saw Nancy walk toward them and dump her lunch in Grover's lap, next I knew I saw water shoot from the fountain, grab Nancy,and drag her into it. I hear her scream "Percy pushed me" and Mrs. Dodd making Percy follow her.

"Wait here Luna." I instructed her and raced off after Percy and Mrs. Dodd, knowing that this was going to be bad. I followed them all the way to the Greek and Roman section, and then her eyes start glowing her fingers elongate to talons and her leather jacket transformed to bat wings. She's no longer human but one of three Furies, I had seen a picture of her in a book on Greek mythology and monsters. Then out of nowhere Mr. B threw Percy his pen who then uncapped it and turned in to a sword. I can't believe it! Once he defeated the Fury and recapped the pen, he looked at Mr. B,

"Where did Mrs. Dodd go?!" he asked still in shock from the attack.

"Who's Mrs. Dodd," he asked in return and rolled away, like he didn't know who we where talking about.

"I saw it too!" I said reassuringly trying to make him feel better. He just nodded and we ran back outside together.

"I hope Mrs. Kerr whipped your butt." Nancy smirked at Percy.

"Who?!" We asked in unison.

"Our teacher. DUH!" she spat and rolled her eyes, walking away from us.

      I get home and tell Lily the whole story, she listen's so attentively when I tell her about my day. I eat my dinner and watch a movie with Lily before bed. The week went on and I kept having hallucinations, so did Luna and Percy. No one seemed to know about Mrs. Dodd except the three of us. Grover claimed he had no idea but he wasn't fooling any of us. He was keeping something from us.

        I went home after a long overly stressful day of school and collapsed in my bed and slept. I was suddenly awoken by a tree crashing through my window and Lily yelling at me to get up. I got up and ran down the stairs and to the car, which was then struck by lighting. Lily then grab my hand and we're suddenly in the middle of a battle between an angry minotaur and... PERCY!!!! I was then run over by the minotaur and Percy used it's own horn and killed it turning it in to yellow dust like when he defeated Mrs. Dodd. Lily helped me to my feet and dragged me up the hill, were we met Percy who had managed to haul Grover (who now had Goat legs!!!)up the hill. We were met by a girl in a orange t-shirt like the one in my suitcase. I then couldn't stand the pain much longer and fainted on the ground, next to my gold and white suitcase.
