Thalia Is Number Two
Early this morning, my loving parents drove their SUV up the half ploughed snowy state road and through the gates of Betula Academy. They opened the door and all but pushed me out on to the frozen white stuff, and then they went around to the back and threw my bags out the back of the car and sped off.

Well, I can't blame them. I know that sounds really loving, but having a shape changer for a daughter is just not easy. Also, my beast soul is hyena, not wolf, eagle, or tiger. Well, hyenas are better than wolves. They're meaner and more vicious. They're tougher and rougher from the moment they were born.

And this humble wearhyena was going to serve the most powerful up and coming demon in the universe, none other than the mighty, majestic, and beautiful Queen Jetta herself.

Now serving Queen Jetta is not an easy task so when you hear poor ugly Ismene whining about her broken foot and playing her tough military music and going "harch!" like some kind of idiot, I just have to laugh. It's so dumb.

To serve Jetta, you have to be like Jetta and that means very cool and very beautiful. Now think about it. Why shouldn't the most powerful up and coming demon in the whole universe be beautiful?

Well, I went in to the dormitory, but did not even know if it was the right one. It wasn't. An angel with big stupid brown wings sent me to the Administration Building where this dried up prune of a human lady in a white sweater gave me my room keys and my card. My ID number is S01. Yeah, she said it only meant I was the first shape shifter to arrive on campus, but you know, I don't believe in coincidence.

My room was 402 Greene Hall. I let myself in and found the elevator did not work. Well what other school would my parents pick out but a dump. As I said before having a werehyena for a daughter can't be easy.

I hiked up four miserable flights of stairs and tried to make myself at home. I had to redo my room twice. The first time I just got a mattress on the floor and foot lockers. The second time I did my room up like a palace with granite walls and matching furniture and a huge bed like an ebony sled. My room looks good enough for Jetta to use except she has her room 400. Yes, we're across the hall from each other.

Room 401 belongs to Jetta's twin sister Ariana.
