This is my first fanfiction, so take pity on me. If I make any mistakes then please correct me. I am open to all reviews positive and negative, but please don't make them offensive. This story takes place after TLO (The Heroes of Olympus series never happened) and Silena never died. For Gallagher it takes place after CMH.

Chapter 1

Cammie Morgan's POV

I attend Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women with my three best friends, Liz, Bex, and Macey. There is something a little unusual about my school, it's a school that trains girls to be spies. Of course they don't force you to become a spy, but when they devote a whole subject to how to act on the field, you don't really have that many other options. Last year we found out that there was another spy school for boys called Blackthorne, but I have been trying to put that confusing experience out of my mind.

This year I was determined to have a normal experience, well as normal as it can be for spies in training. This resolution tanked the moment my Countries of the World, COW, teacher, Mr. Smith approached me and my friends.

"The Headmistress would like to speak with you four." He said quickly, then turned and walked away quickly. I could tell that he was hurrying in order to get to his office before all the other girls arrived from summer vacation. Bex, Liz, Macey, and I all came a week early so we could hang out with each other before school started. We were allowed to do this because my mom is the Headmistress and I would have to come early anyways so that she could get organized for the new school year. I wasn't worried about going to my mom's office because we probably just had to show a new 7th grader around. So we made a beeline for my mom's office to see what she wanted.

"Come in." Came my mom's voice from the other side of the door. We all entered and sat down on the chairs in front of her desk. Her office was fairly simple. The walls were lined with bookshelves and there was a bathroom in the back. Her desk was covered in papers that she hastily swept into a drawer. The walls were painted a light brown color, but were otherwise bare. The only customized area was her desk, but even that was not in the line of view from anywhere in the office except for behind it.

"Hello girls, I'm afraid we don't have much time. We have four new girls that will be in the junior classes with you. They will be arriving any minute now and I need you to give them a tour. We will not be going into Code Red, because they have already been accepted. Please save your questions and complaints for after you meet them because we are very pressed for time. I meant to tell you a few days ago, but got caught up with work. Their names are Thalia Grace, Annabeth Chase, Clarisse LaRue, and Silena Bauregard. Once you are done with the tour, bring them here so I can tell them our secret. Agreed? Good. Go. They will be arriving any second." With that explination we all turned on our heels and ran to the Entrance Hall in order to be there early to greet our new classmates.

Questions were swirling through my mind, but I didn't have time to sort through them with Bex, Liz, and Macey because right when we arrived at the doors we saw a limousine pull up our cobblestone driveway.

Annabeth's POV

I was just mastering a new move with my knife when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I whirled around and held my knife to the throat of the person who interrupted me. When I was able to focus my eyes again I realize it was my half-brother Malcolm. I lowered my knife, but kept on guard in case he wanted to spar and was attempting to catch me off guard.

"Chiron wants to see you in the Big House now." Malcolm said while warily eyeing my knife. I sheathed it and stripped off my armor, leaving the shredded dummy i was working with, and then I sprinted over to the Big House, not wasting a second. After the war I had been waiting day and night for news on anything related. The war had been a few weeks ago, but it was all still fresh in my mind. It was the day before I was supposed to leave to go to my dad's house and if there was anything I needed to know I wanted to know before I left. Percy was apparently already home, because his school started a few days before mine so i didn't need to notify him of any news.

I entered the Big House as quiet as a mouse, not even breathing hard from my long run. I easily found Chiron in the rec room and soon realized that I wasn't the only one summoned. Clarisse, daughter of Ares, god of war and Silena, daughter of Aphrodite, goddess of love were there too, both seated around the Ping Pong table. I took a seat near them and waited for Chiron to begin speaking.

"I brought you three here because I have an adventure of some kind that I want you three to embark on." Chiron started off with. Excitement immediately bloomed inside of me. "This is my way of giving you a break from the constant training and fighting, but it also allows you to stick together. You will be attending a boarding school called Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women. There are four girls to a dorm so—"

"Hold on Chiron, who will be rooming with us? How are we supposed to keep our secret from her? What about the monsters? Do we have permission from both of our parents?" I butted in. I already had a hundred questions, and accidently let a few escape.

"Annabeth I will answer all your questions when I come to them. As for the monsters, Hermes is going to put an enchantment on your camp necklaces so that monsters will not be drawn to you when you are on the school grounds and in the neighboring town, Roseville. The mortals will be able to see through the mist better because of this though. If you are caught talking about the Gods the mist will not cover up for you, but if they happen to see one of your weapons the mist will help you a little, so I advise you to be extra careful. You can't manipulate the mist either so do not try, because you will come off very odd and suspicious. Both of your parents have given you permission to attend. Annabeth, your work on Olympus will continue, but your mom will oversee it now. You are expected to send in new designs periodically so that the work can continue smoothly. You will be leaving tomorrow so you should pack now. Gallagher Academy is in Roseville, Virginia, so pack appropriately for the year. You will find some clothes on your bed if you were lacking some, courtesy of Aphrodite. You are dismissed." I was really excited to see what clothes Aphrodite had seen fit for me, but a little afraid too. I was about to leave when I realized Chiron had forgot to answer two of my questions.

"Um, Chiron?" I began timidly. Clarisse and Silena stopped at the door to listen to what I had to say.

"Yes Annabeth?" Chiron answered kindly.

"You didn't answer two of my questions." I told him, more confident now.

"I am aware of that, but thank you." With that vague answer Chiron spun around in his wheelchair and exited the room. I stood there for a while thinking about what he meant, but soon I pushed it to the back of my mind for later inspection.

The night passed quickly as I threw everything I could reach into my suitcases. When morning came I was completely relaxed and prepared. I guess after fighting in a war, the first day of school isn't much to worry about. I made sure I had my invisibility hat, then I left my cabin. As I trudged over to Half-Blood Hill I saw the dark outlines of Clarisse and Silena making their way up together. I walked over to them, and silently we walked to the exit of camp.

When we were close enough to see the top of the hill I strained my eyes and found two figures waiting at the top. One was obviously Chiron, because he was in his centaur form. The other was a mystery. I quickened my pace to uncover the identity of the other person. My hand instinctively traveled to my knife, ready to unsheathe it and charge into combat with the mysterious person, but once I got closer I lowered my guard completely and began to jog over with anticipation. The unknown figure was Thalia, and all of a sudden it felt like a puzzle piece slid into place. The answers to my questions were Thalia. Thalia was coming with us! This trip sounded 100% better than before. Everything is way more entertaining with Thalia. When I got to the top I was tackled by a hug, courtesy of my best friend, Thalia. I immediately hugged her back. I hadn't seen her since the war, and that wasn't a very happy occasion. She is a Lutenient of Artemis, but she is a daughter of Zues.

Once we split apart I saw that Silena and Clarisse had arrived too. Chiron began to explain a few details. "Your forth roommate is Thalia." He said stating the obvious. "You will be able to talk on the plane, but listen now. Argus will drive you to the airport where Hermes will meet you. He will be passing as your guardian, since he is the god of travelers. Hermes will then drive you to the school, but leave immediately afterward. On the plane he will answer any of your questions and put the enchantments on your necklaces, Thalia will have it on her circlet, which will transform into a simple necklace, much like the camp necklaces, but with a moon pendent instead of the beads.

The plane ride was uneventful, and I found that I didn't have as many questions now as last night. That was the advantage of being a daughter of Athena, even when you are asleep your mind is working on your problems subconsciously. When we landed Thalia immediately erupted with complaints. During the car ride to the airport we were too busy talking about what we had been doing for the month of August, and the whole flight she was too afraid of heights to speak a word, also she was mostly too preoccupied in the bathroom, trying to hold down her breakfast. Now that we had time I realized how much she didn't want to go to school.

When we got to the curb outside the airport Hermes left to go pull up the car, Thalia continued her complaints. "Right now I could be with the Hunters tracking down the Nemean Lion instead of going to stupid school." She stated tartly.

"We get it Thals! We get that you don't want to be here, but please stop complaining, it's driving me crazy! Why didn't you just tell Artemis that you didn't want to come?" I said exasperatedly. After the tenth time of her coming up with something she could be doing with the hunters instead of going to school, I snapped. I felt kind of hurt that she didn't want to go to school with me or Clarisse and Silena.

She turned to look at me as if I were crazy. "Why would I not want to come? I would never miss a whole school year with you! I just don't want to spend the year at school." After this I beganto feel better, and Thalia finally stopped complaining.

When I saw the vehicle that Hermes was driving I almost fainted. It was a pure black limousine with darkened windows. Hermes had on a mischievous smile that made me wonder where he got the limo, but I didn't let that bother me. I knew better than to question a god. I went back to inspecting the limo and let out a low whistle. I had defiantly not been expecting this. I thought he was taking us directly to the school. I wasn't really sure about schools, but I was almost positive that driving a limo to school would stick out. When I voiced my opinion Hermes just laughed.

"You want to fit in don't you?" he asked me through chuckles.

"Of course I do. That's why I don't think the limo is such I great idea." I said timidly. I was nervous about what he was going to do since I contradicted him.

"This is fitting in at your new school." He explained like it was obvious.

"Gallagher Academy is a school for rich girls?" I asked, completely surprised by this news.

"You bet it is. So if you want to fit in you have to arrive in a limo. That's also why Aphrodite packed you all designer clothes." Hermes explained.

"Aphrodite didn't pack me designer clothes!" I exclaimed.

"She transported your clothes and the clothes she 'gave' you back to camp, while giving you all designer outfits. She told me to tell you not to worry and that she took you fashion style into account. Apparently she designed them all herself for you guys specifically. I don't see what the big deal is, but she seemed so excited about all this, so I didn't want to ruin her fun." Thalia immediately began her former complaints again, but subtituted 'stupid' for 'snobby'. Hermes seemed amused by our reactions, but I didn't dwell on that. He probably enjoyed our suffering.

"Here we are girls." said Hermes after a two hour long drive. I looked up from my book on architecture. Luckily I had brought my Greek copy so that I could read it faster and easier. I put it in my bag and looked out the windows. The grounds were perfectly manicured and the building was a huge, white marble mansion. I looked behind us and saw a guardhouse that we had already passed. Past that there was a road that looked completely empty. I saw through a few windows in the Academy, and it looked like all the girls had arrived. When my eyes passed over the front doors I saw four girls looking at us expectantly. I decided not to keep them waiting, so I stepped out, and the others quickly followed me. I turned and got my bags from the trunk, while still keeping an eye on the girls by the door. Hermes had put the enchantment on my necklace, but I was still expecting them to transform into raving monsters. After I was sure that they were mortal and the other girls had their luggage, I started up to the door. I had no trouble with my five bags, and this seemed to surprise them. In order to not come off overly strong, I slouched my shoulders down and tried to look worn out. When we got there I got a good look at the four strangers. They all looked our age, but other than that they looked different from each other. One had cappuccino-colored skin, deep brown eyes, and flowing brown hair. You could tell that she was pretty and that she knew it too. The next had a blonde bob with slightly sunburned skin. She was also small and skinny with pale blue eyes. The girl next to her had average dirty-blonde hair, an average complexion, and an average structure. She looked like someone who would never stick out, and took advantage of it. The last girl had short black hair and blue eyes. She was really tan and was by far the most beautiful out of all of them. Overall they seemed very strong, even the small one, but they were nothing on us demi-gods because we train non-stop. If we weren't this strong, we would have never made it out of the war.

Bex's POV

"Come on. We are supposed to give you a tour, and then take you to the Headmistress to get situated." I said impatiently.

These girls looked so different from each other, but were very close friends. The one that seemed to be the leader had honey-blonde hair and a tan complexion. She had grey eyes that seemed to be analyzing me, finding my weaknesses and learning how to use them for her advantage. It was so uncomfortable that I had to look away. The girl next to her had short choppy raven-black hair with electric blue eyes and tan skin. She was dressed in all black, and looked Goth. The other girls were complete opposites, but seemed much closer than they were to the other two. One had brown stringy hair, muddy brown eyes, and was really buff. She radiated menace. While the other girl had long flowing brown hair with a few natural highlights. Her face was flawless and her eyes seemed to change color every few seconds. She was so beautiful that it looked like she was in the spotlight and the rest of us were in the shadows. It was so natural that it was intimidating.

"Hi, I'm Annabeth Chase." The blonde one said while sticking out her hand for us to shake.

"I'm Bex Baxter." I said, while taking her hand.

"That is Clarisse LaRue," She pointed out the buff one. "That is Silena Bauregard," She pointed out the beautiful one this time. "And this is Thalia." She finished by pointing out the Goth girl. I introduced Macey, Liz, and Cammie, and then I lead them into the Entrance Hall to begin their tour. My friends and I showed the new girls all the classrooms first. They all seemed pretty bored except for Annabeth, who kept commenting on the architecture. When we got to the library we had to all literally drag Annabeth out. The whole way Thalia kept muttering to herself. She didn't seem very happy to be here, but hopefully when our secret is revealed she won't be so grumpy. We finished with the dorm rooms, but we didn't know which one was going to be the new girl's, but we showed them our room. The girls left their luggage in our room so they didn't have to carry it every where.

When we were done we lead them to Cammie's mom's office so that they could find out who we all really were. I don't think they suspect anything, but maybe they were really good at hiding it. When we passed by Gilly Gallagher's sword Thalia immediately stopped her muttering and her face lit up. Gilly's sword is protected with enough electricity to make your hair set on fire, so I hoped she didn't try to touch it. If she did I would have to try to warn her before she made contact. I couldn't tell her about the protection if I didn't need to because it would ruin the whole 'spy' surprise, and it would confuse her.

"WOW! You guys actually have a sword!" Thalia exclaimed. She reached out her hands to hold it.

"I wouldn't d—"I began to warn her, but it was too late. She touched it, but didn't get shocked!

"Hmmmmm. A little off balance, but the weight is good." She mused over the aspects of the sword as if she did it every day.

"H-How? H-How d-did y-y-you d-do th-that?" I stuttered, too stunned to form words correctly.

"What do you mean?" She seemed really confused, obviously not affected by the electricity that was supposed to be coursing through her right now.

"That sword is protected with enough electricity to set your hair on fire." I explained feebly. Comprehension seemed to dawn on her face, but soon it was gone, to be replaced with an unreadable mask.

"Well that's stupid! Why try to protect a dangerous object by enabling an even more dangerous aspect to it?" She complained loudly. She quickly put it back and began brusquely walking to the door that leads into the Headmistress' office. The new girls followed her, while us Gallagher Girls inched along, too shocked to form a thought.

Thalia's POV

"Come in." Came the response from behind the door I had just knocked on. The demi-gods entered with the Gallagher Girls tailing behind us, still in shock from my amazing performance. Their expressions were hilarious, but I couldn't fully enjoy it because I knew that Annabeth would scold me later for not being cautious.

"Hi I'm Annabeth." Annabeth piped up at once.

"Hello, I'm Silena." Silena matched Annabeth enthusiastic introduction.

"Thalia." I said in a bland tone.

"Clarisse." Clarisse growled.

"It's nice to meet you all. My name is Headmistress Morgan." The woman behind the desk responded. She was really pretty, even if she was kind of old. "Well I have some shocking news about this academy that is essential to know if you are to attending it. We are, more or less, an academy that trains girls to be spies. Of course you don't have to be a spy if you don't want to be, but that is what this curriculum is based on. If you do not wish to proceed at this school then we will have you drink a cup of tea that will act as a memory eraser. Do you wish to proceed at this school?" I don't know about the other girls, but I was grinning for the first time all day. Nice and straight to the point, just the way I like it.

"Hell ya I'll attend!" I said with a bunch of enthusiasm.

"Yes, I would love to attend." Annabeth said in a formal tone.

"OMG! Yes, yes, of course I will attend." Silena exclaimed.

"Sure." Clarisse responded.

"Excellent!" Headmistress Morgan said. If she was off put from our answers she didn't let it show. "Your room is right next to the other girls. They can show and tell you all about classes."

"Mom, there is one more thing. When we were walking in here Thalia picked up Gilly Gallagher's sword and didn't get electrocuted. Do you know what happened?" Cammie asked.

"It was probably nothing. Maybe the electricity was turned off?" Even though the question was directed to the Headmistress, Annabeth answered.

"The electricity is never turned off." Headmistress Morgan said absentmindedly while musing over this mystery.

"Well maybe the fuse blew?" I suggested, desperately trying to get the blame off of me.

"I will look into it, but for now you may go to your rooms. The girls will tell you everything you need to know." The Headmistress dismissed us, but she still had a thoughtful expression on her face. I was worried that she would realize that it really was me that caused it. On the way passing the sword I purposely blew the fuse so that now the electricity really wasn't protecting the sword. It now looked like it was simply a mistake that had nothing to do with me at all.

We quickly reached the room and retrieved our luggage that we had left in the other girl's room. We unpacked quickly, planning to go over the horrendous clothes Aphrodite packed us when the Gallagher Girls weren't with us. We claimed the beds quickly and did nothing to customize the room yet. We again agreed we would do that when we were alone. Now that the Gallagher Girls were with us we decided to find out how this academy ran. We pelted them with different questions, which they tried their best to answer. This proceeded until they said that we had to go to the 'welcome back' dinner. We were satisfied that we knew exactly how this academy functioned so we allowed them to lead us down to dinner.
