After Lunch He went back to his locker to reorganize for this school's weird schedule of a day. As he closed the door of his locker he was startled by the face of a girl. He really should have seen her earlier, as she wasn't much taller than the bottom of his Locker door.

She reached out to shake Percy's hand and immediately started talking. "Hello! My name is Rachel Berry and I just wanted to officially welcome you to McKinnley High School." Her voice was nasally and kind of annoying, but I understand that it's the third day of school already but I understand that the halls of McKinnley can be a scary place when you're new so I am here to give you a helping hand whenever you need." Percy edged away and started down the hall to class, Rachel trailing after him. "I didn't catch your name?"

"That's probably because I didn't tell you it." in the moments Percy stopped speaking Rachel began again.

"Well it's so nice to meet you anyways.. I know you're new here and the first thing you'll want to do is immerse yourself in the plethora of extracurriculars we have here at McKinnley." She moved in front of him and stopped, stopping Percy next to a billboard full of club signups. "We have Nature club, Robotics Club, United Nations, Speech and Debate, BSA, JSU, MSC, God Squad, A/V club, Celibacy club, and My personal favorite, Glee Club. In my opinion, It's best to immerse yourself in all ways possible, but for you we should just start small with glee club. the signup is right here ," Rachel hands him a pen, "So if you would just write your name here," Rachel keeps talking as she pulls a flyer off of a clipboard on the wall. NEW DIRECTIONS SIGN UPS! No Cuts! Everyone welcome! "and we meet in the choir room on alternating days during 1st club hour and lunch, as well as Thursdays after school." She stopped long enough for Percy to speak.

"I'm sorry, but I don't really have any time for clubs." He balanced the pen on the top of the clipboard as the sound of someone playing piano started to echo down the hall.

"Oh, no, that's fine, I understand. Feel free to write down your name though just in case you want to stop by. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to join-" The piano music suddenly stopped as Rachel was interrupted by a loud sound like a cat jumping on a piano mixed with smashing guitars.

"What was that?"

"Oh, nothing," Rachel said, though she looked a little worried. "Probably just Sue-the cheer coach, don't worry about it. Anyways, what brought you here to Lima?"

"I wasn't really that worried about it until you told me not to worry." Percy said as the first bell rang, giving him an excuse to leave. "I think my first class is across campus so I better get going, so..." He started backing away slowly, indicating he was trying to get out of the conversation.

"What class do you have? I could help you find it." Rachel moved in front of Percy as he followed the flow of traffic in the hall.

"No thanks, I can figure out my way from here." He walked faster until he was far enough away and then turned a corner, trying to figure out his bearings. He had the odd feeling that someone was following him and not the annoying girl from before. After standing there for a moment, studying his school map he headed off in what he hoped was the right direction for class.
