Percy's POV

I cant believe that I saved the princess a few months ago. I had thought that the princess was a bratty snob but I realized that she was trapped in her own home. She didn't choose to be the princess and she certainly doesn't want to be one. After all of the men were don't talking with Annabeth, we were all taken to the dining room. When we arrived a saw a big table for the selected and a smaller one for the royal family. There were 4 chairs instead of. So I reckoned that she might have a sister or a brother. i was right as Annabeth walked in looking very beautiful- ugh what am I saying, i am only here for the money then I will leave. Besides, i have Rachel back home, and we both love each other. Next to Annabeth, the King and Queen walked in, along with a girl around 9 years old.

Annabeth's dress:

    " Good Morning everyone, I hope you had a good nights rest

" Good Morning everyone, I hope you had a good nights rest. Also i just wanted to remind you that the 3rd floor is out of bounds because that is where we stay. "King Fredrick said. Everyone nodded. Then after we were all finished with breakfast, Annabeth stood up and started to speak.

" Good Morning gentlemen. If I call your name please stay seated so that we can talk. Mr. Henry, Mr. John. Mr. Gabriel, Mr. Ken, and Mr.David. The rest of you are dismissed to go the the men's room. "

I was nervous, what if she wanted to talk to them more because she found an interest in them. I cant go home just yet, I need to stay a while to get money for my family.

As we walked into the men's room, I heard manny people gasp. It looked more like a mens' cave. There was a ping pong table, a foosball table, a pool table, and many other games like air hockey. There were books and there were chairs, tables and couches. I decided to try to make some friend so I went over to the corner of the room, where I found two men sitting and playing cards. I walked up to them and introduced myself

" Hi, my name is Percy, mind if I join?"

" Sure, you can play with us. I am Jason and this is Leo" Jason said. I remembered them, Jason and Leo were both fives.

" Thanks, I am trying to make friends and it seemed to me that you two were friendly" I replied

We all played and talked for a while when a guy named Matt who was a two walked over.

 " So, you bunch of pathetic fives think you stand a chance against a two like me?" He said

  " why yes, we do. At least we aren't bratty snobs like you" I replied. I was very angry that this man thought he could tell us anything he wanted because of our caste number.

 " The princess is trying to get rid of all of the lower castes. She got rid of five men, one of them was a six two were fours and one was a five. So, you three will definitely be up next."

" Wait, so you mean those five got eliminated?" Jason asked

" Yeah, I heard the king talk about it a while ago" Matt replied

Matt was going to say something when a man walked in and introduced himself as Benjamin or Ben for short.

  " Tomorrow, you are going to have your first lesson with me and I expect all of you to be in the first classroom in the East wing, at 1pm" then he left

 We were all told to go to our rooms or wherever we wanted to go. I started t walk toward my room because I decided I wanted to send a letter to my brother and mom. As I was walking towards my room, I saw Princess Annabeth walking and when she saw me she started to walk towards me. Her hair was up in a beautiful bun, and her stormy grey eyes were calm but prepared for battle at the same time. She was so per- Nopercy, you are only here for the money. Then you will go back to Rachel, remember you love her. But something wasn't right when I said that. I Snapped out of my thoughts when Annabeth said

   " Hello, Mr. Perseus"

  " Hello, your highness" I said while bowing

 " I thought I told you not to bow or call me your highness if there isn't anyone around" 

" Ok, but you have to call me Percy"

" Sure. Do you want to walk in the garden with me right now?" 

" I have nothing better to do so i guess I while" I decided to tease her for a while

" Excuse you, what did you just say" she said looking annoyed

" I was kidding"

" ok" she said while smiling 

" So did you eliminate those five men because someone told me that you did"

" Yeah, i did"

" What do you think of Matt Sloan?" I asked wanting to know if she knew how much of a jerk he was

" Honestly? He is annoying and I have a feeling he is very mean. I wanyed to eliminate him but my mom said that I should keep him because the people like him"

" Oh, ok"

"So Percy, tell me about your family"
