Nikki Polliker here. You probably don't know who I am. Just who I know. Everyone just get close to me to be friends with my only buddy, Percy Jackson. The most popular boy in school, why? Mainly because he's hot, nice, and funny. But somehow he always acted like being popular was the easiest thing in world, even though I hate being his best friend, and Percy has to go through worst.

It was Monday assembly when it happened. It was seven fifty when the gods revealed someone. It was then I knew the world was bigger then thought.

"Mortals! I am Zeus, king of the gods and ruler of the heavens!' A voice thundered. Everyone looked shocked, including me, but excluding Percy, why?

Percy looked traumatized, as if he wanted to crawl into a hole and die, which is not what Percy usually is. 'We are here at your school, South Lakers High, to reveal a demigod that lies in your hallways, a demigod that is hidden but deserve to be in the light after all he's done for us, and for all of you, unrecognized, and it's all going to change today.' Athena announced, pride and annoyance in her voice.

Apollo continued the sentence, 'Please come up to the stage, I will not name you, for your sake,' Apollo smirked, 'And as I'm sure the demigod might not want to come up, I will entertain us all, especially myself, by reciting a haiku I made myself!' I noticed Percy go white, though I didn't know why.

Apollo opened his lips, and we all leaned forward to hear what amazing haiku will be coming out of the poetry god's mouth when a voice rang out through the quiet hall, and Apollo looked disappointed. 'Apollo, I'm going to stop you right there, please, no haiku, please.' Percy said. Surprising us all, we all figured that he was probably going to get blasted to dust for that, but we were wrong.

'Well, Perseus Jackson, glad to know you still know your place. Thought you were too in-over-your-head to obey us.' Hera said, voice monotonous. Percy glared at the goddess.

'Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're the goddess that got me, Annabeth, Grover, and Tyson in the labyrinth, correct? And you're the goddess who erased my memory 'To save the world'. So please, do not talk to me about knowing my place.' Percy snapped, before realising what he said.

'You're the demigod?!' I cried, my best friend was a demigod? A laugh was heard from the stage followed by several voices laughing.

'You're the demigod?' I asked, incredulous. A girl with shoulder length black hair appeared on stage with eight other people. 'I agree with Percy. You really can't talk about right or wrong after dropping a damn statue on me in the Titan War.'

A blond girl rolled her eyes, 'Wow Seaweed Brain, didn't think you had it in you.' The girl had curly blond princess locks, tanned skin, and stormy grey eyes. Percy grinned, his mood instantly changing. 'What are you guys doing here?' A girl with long black hair in a braid and dark obsidian eyes sighed, 'We were all revealed Percy. I ask you, what's the point of sending us undercover to schools if we'll just get revealed?' Percy laughed. 'Good point Reyna.'

Zeus cleared his throat. 'Perseus, introductions.' Percy jogged on stage, putting an arm around the blond girl. 'I'm Perseus, 'Percy' Jackson, son of Poseidon. Two times savior of Olympus, and hopefully not the third.' He joked, before walking out with his friends, laughing about something a blond guy with glasses said.

It was that day when I saw a new side of Percy Jackson, and it was better.
