The holidays were over and Reid was none too thrilled about it. He had enjoyed being a free spirit in Collision Falls. The holidays were really the only times he was allowed to leave the academy. Reid didn't have much to go home to though. Since his mother was tracking down his father all over the world, Reid was free to roam about. He did go back to the academy every night because going home would feel weird. He hadn't been home in such a long time. Maybe he was scared ...no that wasn't it. Reid would not be scared by something so trivial as an empty house.
End of the holidays meant that he now had classes to go to. Groaning, Reid made his way to the classrooms. He had mythology and it was partner day. He could tell it was going to be a bad day. He didn't know many of the people in his class and his best friend Mason wasn't in his class. Which meant for Reid that his partner was going to be chosen by the teacher. Swell. That never went well for Reid. Sometimes he just wanted to do projects by himself.
Miss Tyler began to read aloud the project outline: "Create a newspaper that the Gods might have read. You will need to include popular sections just like a real newspaper: sports, world news, local news, entertainment, comics, advice column, etc. Make sure that the contents of your newspaper reflect all your knowledge of Greek Mythology and the Odyssey. Your project will be graded on the amount of knowledge that you present, the creativity of your project, and all mechanics of good writing." The whole class moaned in protest. Reid, wasn't that worried though. He loved Greek mythology.
And then the two words that Reid hated the most in the world were spoken "Buddy Up!" Normally he would be with Mason and they would have a great laugh while doing the project but this time he was solo. Reid scanned the room looking to check if everyone was partnered up, maybe if he was lucky he could do the project alone.
No such luck. Miss Tyler saw him and immediately assigned him a partner. Her partner was missing today and they had to be here for the assignment. Summer Frost was her name...maybe this wasn't going to be so bad.
