Sorry for the delay, I haven't been in the writing mood recently. Plus I have three jobs and I'm busy. I'll try to post more often. Quick question, I'm thinking of starting a new "book" so I can reply to the comments. should I do it or would you prefer a chapter in this one every once in awhile? Sorry to be annoying but I'm thinking of starting a similar story to this one but with Nico's memories, what are your thoughts on that?

Disclaimer: I do not own the books Percy Jackson and the Olympians or the Heros of Olympus, Rick Riordan does. I also don't own the small BBC Sherlock TV show reference in there but bonus points if you find it!

Frank's Point of View

Leo was a lot braver than anybody had given him credit for. How many seven year olds could deal with what he had? Most adults couldn't deal with what Leo had gone through if they were in his shoes.

The television flickered to life, Little Leo was still around seven years old. He was sitting at a desk, his mind miles away. Surrounding him it seemed the class was learning about multiplication. Suddenly the teacher locked her evil eyes on Leo. She got this smug grin on her face as she called out, "Leo Valdez! Pay attention!".

Little Leo's head snapped to attention, his eyes wide and alert. "Yes Miss?" He asked.

"Since you were paying such good attention what is the answer to 352 multiplied by 32?" The teacher said smugly.

Leo's tongue stuck out the corner of his mouth before he answered "11'264 Miss.".

"How did you figure that out so fast?" Hazel exclaimed.

"Math comes easily to me. It's something very important to be able to build things." Leo responded.

"You still shouldn't have been able to get that answer while being so young." Annabeth muttered under her breathe.

The teachers brown eyes widened as she grabbed her calculator to check if he was right. By how shocked she looked it was safe to say Leo had gotten it correct.

"See me after class Mr. Valdez. We have some things to talk about." The teacher said with a glare.

Leo nodded and went back to his mind palace. Content to spend the day exploring his thoughts.

As the bell for the math class rang Leo was left alone with the teacher.

"Mr. Valdez, you need to stop acting like you know everything. It makes the other kids feel uncomfortable around you and your odd self. No child should know that on the spot. So stop showing off!" The teacher's anger progressing as she spoke.

"How dare she do that to you! There is nothing wrong with being smart and knowing the answers of things on the spot!" Jason seethed.

"Smack" All of a sudden the teacher slapped Leo across the face. His eyes filling with unshed tears. He bursted out the door, tears streaming down his cheeks.

"What is wrong with that, that, monster!" Hazel exclaimed, her fists clenched.

"How dare she even lay a hand on you!" Piper shouted, jumping up for her seat.

The screen turned black and the words "Various Occasions" popped up.

"Leo, since you were paying such wonderful attention, what is nine divided by three?" The teacher asked with a sneer.

"Four Miss." Leo responded quietly.

"Wrong. The answer is three. You would know that if you had been paying attention."

"What is ten multiplied by 5 Mr. Valdez. I know you know the answer as you were paying attention right?" The teacher sneered.

"500 Miss" Leo mumbled.

"Wrong. Marcus, do you know the answer?" She said with a smug smile.

"50, right?" Marcus questioned.

"Correct. See Mr. Valdez, if you had been paying attention you would have known that." The teacher smirked.

"Valdez, what is 60 divided by 5?" the teacher rudely asked.

"Six miss." Leo mumbled with a sad look in his eyes".

"Wrong. You need to pay attention if you plan on going anywhere in your life unlike your mother." The teacher snapped.

Leo looked murderous. His rage showing through the mask he placed on his face.

"How dare she say that about your mother!" Piper exclaimed, "I'll hurt her if I ever see her!".

"She got what was coming to her but thanks. She was a terrible teacher." Leo said.

"What happened to her?" Hazel whispered.

"She was fired because someone complained and the principal put up a camera into her classroom without her knowing so he would have proof. Now she can't work in schools again so it's all good." Leo responded.

"I've had my fair share of bad teachers but she was just mean." Percy muttered to Annabeth.

Alrighty so I'm alive and only sick with a cold. It may be August but here in Canada it's cold enough to get a cold! Haha! Nah that's not it. I just get sick really easily. I know this chapter isn't as long as some of the others but I was having a hard time focusing and writing it. Please correct me if I made any grammar mistakes. Let me know any future ideas you would like to have chapters based on. Enjoy your day!
