Museum

It was Thuraday and it was time for feal trip, everyone made there ways on the bus to the museum, Hikari was seating the bus with Natsuki and Peter, why then he didn't want Peter to be alone and Natsuki fallows him like lost Puppy, so yeah as they were going he saw Jason looking at him

Hikari looked at Jason and called by his nickname. "Problem Yami"

Jason, who was sitting a few rows back, raised an eyebrow at Hikari's nickname for him. "What's it to you, Hikari?" he shot back, trying to sound nonchalant, but there was an edge to his tone.

Hikari leaned back in his seat, crossing his arms. "You've been staring for the past five minutes. It's a little creepy. If you've got something to say, just say it."

Natsuki, sitting beside Hikari, glanced nervously between them. "Maybe he's just… admiring your hair?" she suggested, her voice barely above a whisper.

Hikari rolled his eyes. "Right, because every boy admires other boys' hair."

Peter, trying to lighten the mood, chimed in. "Hey, if it makes you feel better, I think your hair looks awesome too. I mean, it's pretty unique!"

Jason smirked, finally rising from his seat and moving closer. "I wasn't admiring your hair, Hikari. I was wondering why you're in the girls' dorm and what's going on with that."

Hikari sighed, already tired of the questions. "It's a long story. But if you really must know, it's because I look like this." He gestured to himself, long hair and all. "And apparently, the school thinks this is a good idea."

"Right," Jason replied, sarcasm dripping from his voice. "A boy in the girls' dorm. How convenient."

"Watch it, Yami," Hikari warned, leaning forward. "You might not want to poke the bear."

Jason leaned against the seat. "Oh, I'm not scared of you. You're all bark and no bite, just like a chihuahua."

Hikari narrowed his eyes. "I might surprise you. You know, a chihuahua can still bite."

Before Jason could respond, Percy, who had been sitting a few rows ahead, turned around. "Hey! Can we not start a fight on the bus? We're supposed to be going to a museum, not a wrestling match."

Grover chimed in from the other side of Percy. "Yeah, please! I don't want to end up in a hospital because of a bus brawl."

Natsuki looked worriedly at Hikari, "Maybe we should just ignore him, Hikari…"

"Not a chance," Hikari said, straightening up in his seat. "If he's got something to say, I want to hear it. Or maybe he just wants to make himself feel better by picking on someone else."

Jason smirked, enjoying the attention. "Well, if you want to play the victim, be my guest. Just remember, this is high school. Survival of the fittest."

"More like survival of the most annoying," Hikari shot back, determination flaring in his eyes.

Just as the tension was about to escalate, Ms. Potts, their history teacher, walked to the front of the bus. "Alright, everyone, settle down. We're almost at the museum, and I expect all of you to behave. This is an educational trip, not a battleground."

"Sure, Ms. Potts," Jason said, rolling his eyes dramatically.

As Ms. Potts resumed her seat, Hikari turned back to Jason. "You're lucky she's here, or I'd be tempted to show you just how much of a bite this chihuahua has."

Jason smirked, unfazed. "Bring it on, pretty boy."

As the bus pulled into the museum parking lot, Hikari felt a mixture of excitement and anxiety. With all this tension brewing, he hoped that the day would bring more adventure than conflict. As they all filed off the bus, Hikari caught a glimpse of the towering structure of the museum, his heart racing at the thought of what they might discover inside.

"Alright, team," Ms. Potts called out, clapping her hands for attention. "Remember, stay together and respect the exhibits. This is a chance to learn about our history, both mundane and extraordinary."

"Let's just hope there are no monsters waiting for us inside," Percy whispered to Grover, who nodded in agreement, a worried look on his face.

Hikari turned to Natsuki and Peter, a grin on his face. "I've got a feeling today is going to be anything but ordinary."

As they entered the museum, the air was thick with anticipation, and little did they know, their lives were about to become even more intertwined with the world of myth and legend.

Natsuki looked at Jason. "So how has Yami figured that your a boy.... Only somehow him"

Hikari just looked at her. "I wish I knew"

[ I will be calling Jason Yami now, do to the future ]

Yami, leaning back against the bus seat, couldn't help but smirk at Natsuki's question. "I have my ways, Natsuki. People tend to talk, especially when there's something unusual going on."

Natsuki frowned. "Unusual? You mean Hikari being in the girls' dorm, right?"

Hikari shrugged, trying to play it cool, but inside, he was a bundle of nerves. "Yeah, you could say that. But it's not like I asked to end up there. This whole situation just kind of happened."

"Right," Yami replied, crossing his arms. "But I think it's pretty interesting. A guy living in the girls' dorm? You must be getting a lot of attention."

"Attention is not what I need right now," Hikari muttered, rubbing the back of his neck. "Especially not from jealous boys who think I'm stealing their thunder."

"Jealous boys? Is that what you think?" Yami challenged, raising an eyebrow. "Or maybe they just think you're cute?"

"Cute?" Hikari rolled his eyes, trying to brush off the comment. "I'm not some prize to be fought over. This is a headache I didn't sign up for."

Peter, who had been quietly observing the banter, finally spoke up. "I mean, if it helps, you definitely have the whole 'cute' vibe going on. You'd fit right in with a lot of those hero stories."

Natsuki nodded in agreement, her cheeks slightly flushed. "Yeah, Hikari, you do have a certain charm. I think it's your hair!"

"Thanks, I guess?" Hikari replied, slightly embarrassed. "But I'd rather have people respect my abilities than my looks."

Yami chuckled. "Good luck with that. Looks like you're going to have to navigate through the jealous boys and the crushes."

"Let's just get through this museum trip without any more drama, okay?" Hikari suggested, trying to steer the conversation away from his predicament.

As they stepped off the bus and into the museum, Hikari felt a wave of excitement wash over him. The massive entrance loomed ahead, with various exhibits showcasing artifacts from different mythologies and cultures. "Now this is what I'm talking about!" he exclaimed, his earlier anxieties momentarily forgotten.

Ms. Potts led them through the entrance. "Alright, everyone! As you can see, we'll be diving into the world of mythology today. I want each of you to pick an exhibit that interests you and take notes. You'll be sharing what you learn later!"

Hikari's eyes sparkled as he spotted an exhibit dedicated to Greek mythology, complete with statues of gods and goddesses. "That one!" he said, pointing excitedly. "I want to check out the Greek pantheon!"

Percy glanced at Hikari with a grin. "You sure that's a good idea? You might end up having to deal with unwanted people."

"Or get mistaken for a goddess!" Yami added, chuckling at the thought.

"Shut up!" Hikari laughed, lightly shoving Yami as they walked. "You all can make fun of me later; right now, I want to learn!"

As they entered the exhibit, Hikari's heart raced. He admired the sculptures, each one telling a story of ancient heroes, gods, and monsters. His mind buzzed with thoughts of adventure, and he couldn't help but feel a connection to the legends around him.

Suddenly, Hikari's excitement was interrupted by a loud crash from the next exhibit. He exchanged glances with Percy and Yami, and without thinking, they rushed toward the noise, curiosity piqued.

"Did you hear that?" Percy asked, his eyes wide.

"Yeah, let's check it out!" Hikari replied, adrenaline kicking in.

As they turned the corner, they saw a group of boys standing near a shattered display case, and Hikari's heart sank.

"What happened here?" Ms. Potts exclaimed, hurrying over to assess the situation.

"Uh, it was an accident!" one of the boys stammered, glancing nervously at another one.

"An accident, huh?" Yami said, crossing his arms and eyeing the group. "You don't look too innocent to me."

"Cut it out, Yami," Hikari said, trying to keep the peace. "Let's not make this worse. We should help clean it up."

As they approached the scene, Hikari couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to this incident than met the eye. With a sense of impending chaos, he knew that their day at the museum was just beginning, and who knew what other surprises awaited them.

Ms Dodds rolled her eyes, as they started to walked to anothet exhibition, as this was one of Cronus eating his kids, one explanation that Percy Failed Badly, as Hikari answer for him they kept going before they stopped on exhibits was about Aphrodite, Ares and Hephaestus but it was not good one, it was one where Hephaestus caught Aphrodite chet.

Hikari looked at this spoke to him self. "I feel second hand embracement for this for some reason"

Chrion looked at all them. "Will this is an interesting one"

As the group stood before the exhibit depicting the tumultuous relationship between Aphrodite, Ares, and Hephaestus, Hikari couldn't help but feel a mix of embarrassment and fascination. The display illustrated Hephaestus catching the two gods in an act of betrayal, complete with a lifelike representation of their expressions—Hephaestus' shock and heartbreak, and Ares' smug arrogance.

"Why do they always have to air their dirty laundry like this?" Hikari muttered, crossing his arms. "It's like a soap opera for gods."

Percy snickered beside him. "Hey, at least it's not our drama being displayed for everyone to see."

"True, but can you imagine how awkward it must've been for Hephaestus?" Hikari continued, shaking his head. "Being a god of craftsmanship and getting cheated on by the goddess of love? That's a rough hand."

"Yeah, but he's still a powerful god," Percy countered. "He could probably whip up a mechanical monstrosity to get back at Ares if he really wanted to."

"Or he could just build an awesome trap," Yami added, smirking. "I'd pay to see that."

"Maybe he could make a giant catapult to fling Ares into the next dimension," Hikari joked, earning a few chuckles from the group.

Ms. Potts, overhearing their banter, interjected. "While the drama of the gods is fascinating, remember that mythology often reflects human emotions and relationships. Betrayal, love, and revenge are all universal themes."

Chiron nodded in agreement. "Aphrodite's infidelity and Hephaestus' reaction remind us that even the divine can face personal turmoil. It's a lesson in the complexity of relationships."

"I get that," Hikari replied, his gaze still fixed on the exhibit. "But I just can't imagine being a part of that kind of drama. It's exhausting."

"Tell me about it," Percy sighed, rolling his eyes. "At least we don't have to deal with gods all the time. We have our own issues to tackle."

As they moved on to the next exhibit, Hikari couldn't shake the feeling that his own life was about to become more complicated, especially now that he knew he was a demigod. His thoughts drifted to the challenges ahead, and he wondered how his identity would change his relationships and adventures.

The next exhibit featured gods and goddesses from various mythologies—Norse, Egyptian, and even some lesser-known deities. Hikari's interest piqued as he studied the representations, feeling a kinship with the heroes and legends he had read about.

"This is amazing!" Hikari exclaimed, pointing to a statue of Thor. "Look at that hammer! Mjölnir is iconic. I wish I could wield something like that."

"Just don't try to summon lightning, okay?" Percy said, smirking. "We don't need you frying the museum."

Hikari laughed. "I'll leave the thunder to Thor. But it does make me wonder about my own abilities. If I'm a demigod, what kind of powers do I have?"

"You could be a son of Aphrodite or maybe even Ares," Yami suggested, grinning. "Just imagine it—a demigod of love and war. That sounds like an anime plot waiting to happen!"

"Or a disaster!" Hikari shot back, unable to contain his laughter. "I'd be caught in a love triangle every five minutes."

Just then, Ms. Potts clapped her hands to regain their attention. "Alright, everyone! Let's gather around for a group discussion. I want to hear your thoughts on what we've seen so far, and if any of the myths resonate with your own experiences or what you've learned."

As they all circled up, Hikari felt a strange mix of excitement and apprehension. Sharing their thoughts about the myths would bring them closer, but it also meant confronting his own identity as a demigod and what it could mean for his future. He glanced around at his classmates, all of them eager to contribute, and he knew this was just the beginning of their adventures together.

"Alright, here goes nothing," he thought, preparing to share his insights about the myths and how they reflected their own lives.

As the students settled into a semi-circle, Hikari could feel the anticipation buzzing in the air. Ms. Potts scanned the group, her encouraging smile prompting the students to engage.

"Who wants to start?" she asked, her voice warm and inviting.

Percy, always eager to dive into the discussion, raised his hand. "I think the story of Hephaestus is pretty relatable," he said, glancing at Hikari. "Like, getting cheated on sucks. And it's not just about love—sometimes people can feel betrayed by their friends or family, too."

Hikari nodded, his thoughts aligning with Percy's. "Yeah, and Hephaestus didn't just sit around feeling sorry for himself. He channeled that pain into his work. That's something we could all learn from."

"Absolutely," Ms. Potts replied. "Turning negative experiences into positive actions is a powerful lesson. It shows resilience."

Yami raised his hand next, a sly grin on his face. "But let's not forget that Hephaestus built a trap to catch Ares and Aphrodite in the act. Revenge can be pretty entertaining!"
