I DO NOT OWN PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS OR THE SELECTION. ALL RIGHTS BELONG TO RESPECTIVE OWNERS
Percy's POV
I walked in the dining room and sat down in my usual chair, my assistant Avery said, "Good morning Prince Perseus, the King, Queen, and your uncle would like to speak with you".
"Thank you Avery, are they here now?"
"I think I will answer that question Avery, you may go", said my mother. "We want to speak with you about the selection, son", said King Poseidon, my father
"What about it?"
"Well, it just that...um..."
"The girls are coming tomorrow instead of next week", said my uncle, Zeus. I began to panic, twenty girls are coming here to the palace to compete for marriage TOMORROW, and I have even seen them yet.
"WHY HASN'T SOMEONE TOLD ME?" I yelled in panic. "We just found out because some of girls wouldn't be able to come endless the plane flight was booked earlier". "Can I at least see the girls?"
"Of course, son"
I guess the competition is on now
We stepped into the viewing room and my cousin Jason began telling about the girls. The first girl to appear on the screen had short red hair, freckles, and beautiful green eyes, but they aren't sea green like mine.
"Okay this is Rachel Elizabeth Dare, a Three and she is from Lakemist"
Next was a girl with long dirty blonde hair with pig-like brown eyes and strong looking. I have to say she was attractive.
"This is Clarisse La Rue, a Three and she is from Sparta"
After Clarisse, there was this slim girl with brown hair and blue eyes and might I add she was very beautiful.
"Silena Beauregard of Crete, a Two"
"Miss Calypso Atlas of Ogygia, Two"
The list continued, but the last girl caught my eye…
"Annabeth Chase of Athens, a Four"
Annabeth was just beautiful; she looked like a California girl with her long blonde princess curled hair, but her eyes were stunningly stormy gray.
This is going to be a very interesting competition
Today all the girls are to arrive; they are coming in the afternoon, so I slept in late. I showered, put on a gray v-neck and khaki pants, and I left my jet hair messy.
"Perseus, are you awake?"
"Yea, you can come in dad"
My dad came in and sat on the bed, I asked what he needed.
"Son, today is the day your future bride is in your future palace, so be confident and respective"
"Of course father" Man was I nervous; I mean tomorrow I am going to meet hopefully the love of my life. My dad left and looked at the photos again and I saw her. Annabeth Chase. Annabeth would be a fascinating contender, even though she seemed exceedingly unruly. Still, I couldn't quake the feeling to chase her. If I had her here, at least I had the chance to try.
