I dont own Percy Jackson, sadly!

"Melody, you better wake up! You're new school starts in half an hour, and you don't wanna be late!" My dad called. I moaned and rolled over. A new school. A new life.

I heaved myself into a sitting position and rubbed my eyes. What was this new school called again? 'Tallmore Middle'? No... 'Taller Middle', thats it!

I stood up, and walked into my restroom for a shower. When i stepped out, i noticed my brush was gone. Red face, i put my robe on and stormed into my sisters room.

"Diane, you better have a good..good.." I stuttered. In front of me was my step sister yanking the hair out of one of her dolls. What horrified me was she was using MY brush.

"DIANE!" I screamed, and lunged for the 8 year old. She screamed and trying to smack me with her doll. I just snatched it from her hand and threw it against the wall. Then, i grabbed my brush, and whacked her head. I then walked out of her room so i could get ready.

Of course, not 2 minutes later, Jessica walked into my room. I rolled my eyes, sighed, and turned to the red head.

"Jessica." I greeted. She looked at me. "Melody, did you hit Diane for no reason?" She asked. I rolled my eyes. "No! She stole my brush, and destroyed it on that stupid doll! And i only whacked her, not even hard!" I declared.

Jessica rolled her eyes. "Don't you go hurting my Diane!" She growled. My face went red, and i had half a mind to hit her. How dare this woman speak to me like that!

Jessica looked into my eyes, as to challenge me. Ever since my dad got remarried, and they had Diane, i had basically been at war with the new additions.

Seeing she had made her point, Jessica walked out with a smug look on her face. I took a deep breath, and started looking through my closet.

I decided on skinny jeans, combat boots, a red t shirt with a cross on the left breast, and a leather jacket. I combed my long, golden blonde hair up into a ponytail.

I walked out of my room and started eating. Dad had made eggs, waffles, and bacon. The perfect, 'Lets make it through this year!' breakfast.

Diane walked in, her frizzy red hair held back with a headband. Jessica followed not far, and smirked at me.

"Ok, lets try to make it to the end of the school year!" My dad encouraged. Jessica just sneered. "So, basically, don't screw up." She said bitterly. If you hadn't noticed, my step mom hates me, and i don't like her that much either.

I just nodded and grabbed my backpack. I looked at my family, er, my dad and the two life intruders. Then, i turned and walked out the door.

I walked up to my new school, not knowing what to expect. It looked pretty normal.

I walked through the gate and under the arch, only to hear the other students start to whisper.

I rolled my eyes and continued to walk. Then, some wiseguy decided to introduce themselves. In a not so friendly way.

He was boy, a little taller than me, with dark brown hair. Beside him were identical twin brothers, both with milk chocolate hair.

"Hey sweet cheeks. You new?" Asked the obvious leader. I rolled my eyes. "Obviously, or you would know better than to walk up to me." I responded.

He didn't like that answer. He grabbed my wrist, and that was his 1st mistake. I grabbed his wrist, took it off mine, and twisted it back behind his back. He gasped, and i put my free arm around his neck.

"Don't ever, and i mean ever. Touch. Me." I hissed into his ear before letting go. He looked at me like i was crazy, and he and his lackeys ran off.

I rolled my eyes, and walked into the building. Students were rushing around, going through their lockers and talking to each other.

I looked around, and observed the commotion for a second. Then, i had a feeling someone was watching me. I turned around to see i was right.

It was a guy, acne, peach fuzz, and a hat on. He also had crutches... So i wasn't too worried. When he noticed i was looking at him, he looked away and at the people he was talking too. One of them turned to look at me before the guy turned him around and snapped at him.

I rolled my eyes and walked around. Everyone else seemed to know where to go. Everyone, but me.

Finally, i saw a sign that said 'Office", so i followed the arrow. When i found the office, i also noticed the same dude, on the phone. He hadn't noticed me yet, so i decided to be quiet and listen.

"Yeah, i found one!...No, no i'm sure... Yeah, even Darren and Grover... No, i haven't talked to them about it... I just have a feeling, ok?... Yeah, ill talk to them now... Yes sir." He finished before hanging up. He turned around, and almost jumped out of his skin.

"Oh, uh... Hi... Wha-What are you doing here?" He asked nervously.I rolled my eyes. "I'm new to this school and i'm here for my schedule." I explained

He nodded and walked out the door with his head down. I shrugged, and rang the bell. A tall lady with jet black hair, a pointy nose, and a brown leather jacket stepped out from the door. Besides the jacket, she was wearing an old brown dress... Did i mention she was old?

"Yes?" She seemed to hiss. Ok, this lady made me feel really weird. I raised my eyebrow and took my hands away from the counter, in fear something or someone may take them off.

"Um, i'm the new student... Melody Lutar."I explained, my hands nervously drumming my legs as my feet shifted constantly.

She smirked and started looking through a file. Out came a map and schedule. She pressed a button. "Could Grover Jackson come to the office... NOW!" She screeched.

I put my hand to my ear and winced. In came a boy with black hair and almost gray eyes. He was tall, and had an owl necklace on. Under his leather jacket collar, i could see a trident tattoo.

"Uh, yes ?" He asked, clearly annoyed and not at all intimidated. "We have a new student, and she seems to have most of your classes. Show her around." ordered.

Grover rolled his eyes and looked at me. Of course, he did a freaking double take. Ok, let me explain why.

I am very, very attractive. Clear skin, light blue eyes, long golden blonde hair, tall, athletic, and a curvy figure in all the right places. I've been told i could make anything look good.

"Um, and you are?" He asked. Smooth. "Melody Lutar." I said again. He looked at me, as if trying to figure me out.

"Lutar... What does that mean?" He asked. I smirked. "It means, 'fight'." I explained, and he looked even more curious.

"Ok then, lets go." He instructed, and i followed him out. I looked back at , and i will never forget what i saw. She was definitely fatter, and it was like the skin on her face wrinkled together, and her fingers became huge talons... Then her jacket turned feathery until it became wings.

I gasped, and fell down right on my butt. Grover turned around, and looked at me in concern. "Melody?" He asked, and kneeled down next to me. I realized i was gasping for breath.

"Ms... ! She...She..." I gasped, trying to describe what i saw. Grover's eyes widened, and he looked at the glass, where was observing us.

Grover grabbed me by the collar, and almost effortlessly lifted me up. He half dragged half carried me into an empty classroom, and set me on a chair.

He paced for a second, before looking at me. "What did you see?" He asked, looking at me intently.

"Talons, wings, fat, lots of wrinkles." I rambled out, listing off the obvious things. He nodded and paced again.

"Gosh, how do they do this? They make it look so easy, but when it comes down to it, its impossible!" Grover complained.

I looked at him. "What do you mean?" I asked, trying to find the answer in his face.

"Can you stay here for, like, one minute? I need to go get someone who can help." He asked, looking at me intently. I took a deep breath and nodded.

He ran out of the room, and i started going over everything in my head. was some sort of mutant monster... And Grover was apart of it.

The door opened, and in came Grover with the dude from before. I jumped out of my seat. "Hey! You're that dude from the office, and the hallway!" I proclaimed.

He nodded. "My names Nolan, Nolan Willow. I...I'm a satyr."He began, and took off his hat and... HIS FEET!?

My eyes widened, and instead of feet... He had HOOVES! Then, to make matters worse... He took off his pants! I was about to turn around, but his legs weren't normal. They were furry... Like hindquarters.

" .Gods." I choked out. Grover looked at me in confusion. "Did you say gods?"He asked. I nodded. "Me and my dad say gods instead of God." I explained.

"Why?"He asked. I shrugged. "I just grew up saying it."I explained. Grover nodded. Then, the door opened. In came a really, really tall dude!

"Guys, what are you... Oh, hi." He greeted. I just choked on the air. You would think that there was nothing weird about him but his height. But oh no! He had to only have one eye!

That was when i think i passed out. "Was it something i said?" He asked.

I started to wake up. "Dad, i had a weird dream. There was a bird lady, a satyr, and some dude with one eye. And there was this really... really..." I stuttered off, when i opened my eyes to see Grover, Nolan, and the other one eyes guy staring down at me.

"This really what?" Grover asked, a smirk on his face. I blushed and shook my head. Then, i looked at Nolan and the new guy.

"So, who's he?"I asked. "Darren." Grover explained, helping me up. I looked at him, then his eye. It was blue green, like the sea.

I took another deep breath. "Ok, please start explaining... Everything!" I asked. Nolan nodded.

"So, i'm a satyr, and Darren is a cyclops. He's also a son of the sea god and half brother to Grover. Grover's parents are the legendary Annabeth Chase and Percy Jackson. So, he's kinda half Poseidon and half Athena. The Greek gods, their real. They move with western civilization. Now, their in New York at the top of the empire state building. And you, you are a half blood. Either you're mom or you're dad is a god. And for some reason, you can see past the mist." Nolan explained.

I gulped, and stared into space. Then, i looked up at them. "Prove it." I said simply. Grover nodded and Nolan began putting his pants, feet, and hat back on.

"This is the fun part! The reason we're here, is cause the oracle prophesied a new half blood would be here. And, the oracle never does that! So, you have to be special. We have the best here at the school... And one of them can prove it!" Grover explained.

I just nodded. "Well, take me!" I urged. The boys smiled and led me out the door... Where we came face to face with .

My face paled and my eyes widened, but Grover seemed to know what to do. Before could force us back into the classroom, Grover snapped his fingers. A sort of fog went around her face, she blinked, and then went back into the office.

"Mist. Makes mortals, demigods, and even monsters forget or see something different. Just learned how to control it!" Grover explained, obviously pleased.

They led me to a classroom to see a man in a wheelchair. Oh, and the rest of the class!

"Grover, Dean, Nolan... What are you doing here?" He asked. He had been reading aloud to some other students, so they looked thankful for the interruption. I looked around to see there were actual weapons hanging from the wall!

"Are those...?" I asked, pointing to a particular set. The teacher nodded. "Yes, they are real weapons. But, they are very dull, so they wont hurt anyone." He explained.

I noticed movement very close to my face, so i looked around. All three of the boys with pointing at me, and making faces to the teacher. He sighed. "Class, continue on reading... And please, try not to alarm the other classes." He asked.

He rolled out of the room, and waited for us to explain. Grover did most of the talking, but Nolan jumped in too. Darren just sucked on a sucker he had gotten from his pocket.

I tuned them out, and started examining the teacher. My eyes fell on the wheelchair. "That must be really uncomfortable." I said randomly, interrupting Grover.

The teacher examined my face, and then looked at Grover. "See!" He proclaimed. The teacher nodded, then turned back to me.

"What do you see?" He asked. I smirked. "You have a horses ass." I chuckled. Nolan gasped, and Darren dropped his sucker.

The teacher burst out laughing. "Indeed i do! My name is Chiron, and i am a centaur." He explained. Now, it was my turn to gasp.

"The Chiron? Trainer of heroes and son of Kronos?" I asked. The boys turned to look at me sharply, their faces dark.

Chiron had the same face. "How did you know that?" He asked. I opened my mouth, then closed it. How did i know that?

"Mist wont work for long!" A voice said behind us. We all turned to see , in her monster form. "Harpie." I whispered. I didn't know how i knew now, or why i didn't before, but i knew.

Chiron turned to us. "Time to go." He said, and got out of his wheelchair. Just as i had said, from the waist down, he was a white stallion.

He picked me up and put me on his back, along with Grover. Nolan took off his pants and shoes, and Darren just turned away.

Then, we were running. I held onto Chiron as tight as i could, because we were going so fast that it seemed like we barely touched the ground. I felt Grover holding onto me from behind, and if anyone had looked at my face they would've seen me blushing. I knew that if he didn't, he would've fallen off.. But still...

We arrived, strangely, at my house. Chiron somehow brought his wheelchair with him, and eased himself into it when we had jumped off.

I saw that Nolan was no longer half nude either, so i walked into my house. There, Jessica had pinned down my dad, and Diane was licking her lips.

But, they looked weird. Their hair was on fire, their skin was paler, they had fangs and red eyes, and one of their legs were bronze while the other was a donkey leg.

"Empousa!" Nolan cried. Jessica turned to look at us, and she had blood dripping down her fangs.

"You're early! We were supposed to get our meal and leave before you came back! This wasn't the deal!" Jessica cried in a hiss.

Enraged that my step mom and step sister were monsters, and that they had attacked my father, i lunged.

Jessica did as well, and we were in a brawl, punching and kicking each other. But, i always carried a pocket knife.

I grabbed it from my pocket, flipped it, and stabbed her. The wound suddenly started to turn to dust. I smirked and continued to attack.

Jessica lunged, i dodged, then turned around and stabbed her back. She froze, then turned around. Before she killed me, i stabbed her throat. That got her. She disappeared into nothing but dust.

"Mamma?" Diane asked. I turned to not see fear or sadness, but bloodthirsty murder. "I cant believe you did that!" She cried and lunged for me.

Before she attacked me, she was cut in half. We both turned to see Grover holding a shining sword. That is, before Diane turned to dust.

"Always knew they were monsters." I murmured before turning to my dad. "Daddy!" I cried and ran to my unconscious father.

"So its a goddess..." Nolan murmured.

I lifted his head to see only a small puncture wound on his shoulder. I sighed and looked for the first aid kit.

I started tending to his wound before i noticed everyone was staring at me. "Yes?" I asked, looking at them.

"You just killed an adult Empousa, by yourself, without any training... And now you're giving first aid?" Grover asked. I nodded. "Your amazing!" He proclaimed.

I blushed and finished patching up my dad. "May i see you're knife?" Chiron asked. I nodded and handed it to him. He examined it, and smiled. "This was made with Celestial bronze." He exclaimed.

"Celestial bronze kills monsters... But since it looks half normal, it must also have iron or something." Grover explained. "Meaning it can hurt monster, demigods, and mortals." Grover finished.

I raised my eyebrows. "Wow... Interesting." I murmured, looking at my dad. He had given it to me.

"He must of known you would need protection one day. Of course, we will need to get you a real weapon when we get back to camp." Grover explained.

"Camp?" I asked. Grover nodded. "Where demigods train to be heroes. You need to go there, where you can be safe." He explained.

I sighed, nodded, and wrote a note for my dad. I had Darren and Nolan put him on his bed, so he wouldn't wake up on the floor.

I walked into my room and started to pack. Clothes, toiletries, notebooks, and my necklace. It was the yin and yang symbols with 4 leaf clovers where the little dots should be. My dad got it for me. He said my mom was all about love, peace, and strangely enough, violence. Her dad was war crazy, and her mom was the most beautiful women in the world. She was married to the guys brother, but still loved my grandpa.

I sighed, and started on the pictures. I picked up one of me, my dad, and my mom. She was beautiful, but very unlucky.

Another one had my grandma holding me, but the lighting made it so i couldn't see her eyes. But i saw her mouth. It was a beautiful mouth.

Another had my uncles trying to scare the crap out of me, but they never could. The lighting was bad there too. Really, the only good picture of all of us was one. It was of me, mom, dad, grandpa, grandma, and my uncles. My mom made us all take one family photo. That was, until the fire almost destroyed them all. My mom died in that fire.

I wiped a tear away and put it into the box. When i had finished, i left the room. My room. For only a week.

"Ok, i'm ready." I said. Darren picked up the bag and box, and went outside. That was when Nolan hugged me.

"Everything's going to be ok." He said calmly. I was shocked, but a little grateful. He stepped back, his hands on my arms, and looked into my eyes.

I got a good look at him. He was taller than me, and maybe a year older. I think everyone was taller than me... But Nolan actually looked cute.

Nolan blushed, then ran outside. I shook my head in confusion. "Satyrs can read emotions." Grover explained.

I looked at him. "I was named after a great one. He found Pan, and kinda took over for him. He was my dads best friend." Grover explained. I nodded, and we both walked outside.

This was it. I was leaving. I turned to look at my house one last time. Then, i stepped into a van like cab, which had 3 ladies, who shared one eye, and one tooth.
