Lives in Secret

Percy is prince of District 2. Annabeth is princess of District 4. They are both forced into hiding and they meet when Annabeth hits Percy with a horse. Neither of them know each others identity. What happens? Do they ever go back to their own districts? Sorry for the bad title and summary. I'm kinda new at this...

Lives in Secret

Chapter 4

Percy

"Percy, come here." I heard my dad calling from the throne room.

I walked in and saw my dad talking to the most hideous creature I had ever seen. It was almost as tall as me. It had the top half of a lizard with human hands and elephant legs on the bottom. On top of all of that, she was wearing a tight, red mini-dress with rhinestone beading along the top.

"Percy," my dad said as soon as he saw me. "This is Princess Miltrude. She is your bride-to-be."

"No!" I yelled.

Then, she got this murderous look on her face and lunged at me.

"Ah!" I yelled as I opened my eyes. I looked around. I was in my bed. It was just a dream. I thought, relieved.

I got out of bed and stretched. Grover was gone. I remember my dad sent us up here to hide during the attack last night.

I decided to go look for him. Grover, I mean.

As I was walking down the hall, I bumped into my father.

"Percy," he said. "We need to talk. Come, let's go to your room.

I followed my father back to my room. When we got there, he pushed the door open, walked in, and took out a canvas bag.

"Percy, I'm sending you to District 6."

"What? Why?" I asked not believing my ears.

"The districts surrounding us, 1, 3, and 4, were attacked either last night or this morning. I'm not sure why but I want you to be safe. You will ride Blackjack into Shallwick Village in District 6. Your house is just left of the barber shop, go onto that road and it's the second house on the right. Grover will be accompanying you. Meet me in the stables when you are finished packing. Your mother and I will be there to see you off." And with that, my father left.

I was frozen in shock after he left but I snapped out of it quickly. I threw a couple pairs of casual clothes, my armor suit, Riptide (Percy's sword, incase you didn't know.) and a couple personal items into my bag and hustled down to the stables.

My mother and father were there to see me of. Grover had mounted his horse, ready to go. My mother was getting teary eyed so I grabbed her in a hug.

"I'm only doing this because I love you, honey." my mother managed.

I gave my dad a firm hand shake, mounted Blackjack and rode off into the afternoon sun, ready to start a new life, temporarily.
