Hazel peaked around the corner to see if her brother Nico was anywhere. When he was accepted into Monster High as part of the exchange program, she decided to follow him. Not only did she never finish high school, it was nice to go to one that was not segregated, and in fact prided itself on its diversity. Plus, it served as a nice distraction from her break up with Frank. Thinking about him still sent a pang through her art.
“Are you lost?” A girl with a french accent asked. Hazel turned around and was staring face to face with a gargoyle. But not just any gargoyle, one with pretty pink hair with light blue streaks running through it, and pink eyes that shone like jewels.
“No, I’m just looking for my brother Nico,”
“I can help you look for him,”
“Thank you. My name is Hazel Levesque,” She held out her hand, the pretty gargoyle girl shook it. Her hand was cold to the touch, but Hazel didn’t mind.
“My name is Rochelle Goyle. You are a demi-god, correct?”
“Yes, my father is the Roman God Pluto,”
“Pluto, what is he in charge of again?”
“Death and the Earth. For example, I can summon gem stones,” With a flick of her wrist, a beautiful pink diamond appeared in her other hand. It was the size of an eyeball, and she handed it to Rochelle.
“Here, I want you to have this. It matches the color of your eyes,”
“Merci, it is so beautiful. I wish I could you give in return,”
“You could help me find my brother. I searched throughout the school but couldn’t find him,”
“He could be in the catacombs underneath the school,”
“Why didn’t I think of that? Nico would be hiding underground,”
“I can lead you to one of the entrances, but it can be very confusing,”
Hazel smiled. “Good thing I can manipulate underground caverns,”
“That will make things much easier. Follow me then,” Rochelle took her hand again, and Hazel smiled.
