Harry's POV
Waking up early sucks. It sucks even more when you have no control over it. Percy says we have to get up early until we get the training down, which according to Annabeth, is so not like Percy. She said Percy usually sleeps until noon when he can. Oh, how I wish he could. Staying up until midnight, practicing nonstop, only to wake up at five in the morning to do it again. It all sucks, but if we want to keep up this charade, then we will have to do it as much as it takes.
Walking into the dining pavilion, people gave me weird stares, like they did not expect me to even think of being up this early. Ignoring the stares, I walked to the table for cabin three, Poseidon's table. As soon as I sat down, the people went back to what they were doing, leaving me all alone with my glorious breakfast of blue pancakes and very good, fresh squeezed orange juice. Soon enough, we were heading to the Athena cabin to go get Annabeth, and afterward head down to the beach to do some more sword training.
Within minutes, we were standing outside and knocking on the door to the prestigious looking Athena cabin. After around thirty seconds of impatiently waiting, the door swung open, and Malcolm stood there looking at us in a very disbelieving manner. "Are you here at this ungodly hour of the morning to ask for Annabeth again?" Malcolm asked us, stressing out the again for longer than what was needed.
"Yes, I would like for Annabeth to help me in my training again, if you could be so kind as to go get her for me." I said in a polite tone that Malcolm looked slightly shocked by.
"Yeah, I will be so kind as to go get her, but if she wants to kick your ass for waking her up again, then, I'm not going to stop her." He replied in a bored sounding voice. That being said, he turned around and walked into the bunks. We waited for what seemed like forever with the ADOST as other people know as ADHD. I call it ADOST because when I try to explain it, it goes like this: "Attention Deficit- ohhh shiny thingy!" Ignore that last remark, ADHD acting up again. Finally, a very beautiful Annabeth came out in cut off jean shorts and a plain white tank top. 'Dude! Soo not cool. Get your own girlfriend!' said Percy, as he could hear my thoughts. 'So, you want me to go out and get a girlfriend, while in the same body as you, when other people do not know about us merging souls? Do you know how many people would label you a cheater after that?' That seemed to shut him up, because he did not say anything after.
"Shall we, my beautiful lady?" I asked holding my arm out for her to loop her arm through. She blushed a bright red and nodded, looping her arm through mine. Meanwhile, Percy was cussing up a storm in my head, yelling at me to let him take over, stop flirting with his girlfriend, and stop walking in the wrong direction. That last one, I didn't know where it came from. Arriving at the beach, I pulled out Riptide and immediately uncapped it and blocked a slash at the stomach, courtesy of Annabeth's knife. "Let Harry take over, Percy. We're supposed to be training him, remember?" she asked me looking clearly concentrated.
"What do you mean Annabeth, I have been in control for the whole of the morning." I replied with a smirk, at Annabeth's now blushing face. I took that simple moment of distraction to try the disarming maneuver that I have been trying so hard to get down. Soon, the tip of my blade was in the hilt of hers. when I flicked my wrist, the blade flew about 8 feet to the right, sinking hilt deep into the sand. Her head snapped up, and she gave me one of the most murderous glares I have ever seen in my life. That's saying a lot, considering in my short life, I have been glared at by numerous different people.
"Have you been in control the whole morning, Harry?" She asked with an icy tone. I simply nodded nervously, in fear of my life. "Then, you are the one who called me 'My beautiful lady?'" she asked me. I simply nodded again. "I'll give you a ten second head start. Ten" I started running only to be stopped by laughter. Looking back I saw Annabeth rolling on the ground laughing.
I said something intelligent like "Uhh whaa?" only causing her laughter to increase. After calming down, she said she was going back to her cabin early. Deciding to practice for a little more on my sweet water powers, I walked to the bank, where the surf comes in and rolls on your ankles. After about four in the afternoon, I stopped, body aching, drenched in sweat. I walked up to Travis Stoll and told him that I told Katie Gardner of his crush on her, then quickly let Percy take over.
Percy's POV
I regained my control in front of a blushing Travis glaring at me murderously. In a low threatening voice he asked "Why in the name of The Three Fates would you tell Katie I have a crush on her?"
"I didn't, I only said that to confirm my suspicions. You have been caught" I said running off. After eating dinner, I went back to my cabin, only to find the queen of the gods, Hera standing next to one of the beds. Bowing low I asked "Lady Hera, to what do I owe this pleasure?"
"This has to be done Perseus. I'm sorry, I wish there were another way." Upon seeing my confused look she elaborated. "I have to switch you and the leader of the camp for roman demigods." I was shell shocked. Having a sad expression on her face she pointed her hand at me, palm facing outward, and started chanting. Pretty soon I felt drowsy, and I passed out. The last thing before I did pass out? Annabeth.
Annabeth's POV
Expecting Percy or Harry, I got up at five and went to the beach. No one was there. That's funny, that's usually where we train... Peeking my head into the cabin I saw something that made my heart drop. A note that said 'Percy will be back- Hera'. Walking out of the cabin I headed to the Big House with tears streaming down my face. Chiron had to know about this.

G96 Saber: It isn't canon Harry, he is a bit OOC. Also, we'll see what happens later on in the story. You got your wish with a certain Stoll brother in this chapter!
