Chapter 26 ~ Daily

PERCY :

Table read time ! Usually that would be the most exciting thing because we can see who act as who. I received a copy of the book and was shocked. The characters had the same names as us. I think the author may not know we existed because I'm pretty sure it was published before I even met Annabeth. I went to the studio with Annabeth and we had to do a few things before we got past the guards. I still can't believe that they do not know who we are. As we stepped inside, we were met by the Director. Wait, scratch that, co director. According to him, the director had a few errands. The co's name is Oliver Blackin. He was short and stocky. He ushered us into a room on the right and we saw people sitting around a table with scripts in their hands. Well, those were the important ones. Extras sat near the walls, away from the table. That is why it's called a table read. Understood ?

We sat on two of the three remaining seats while Oliver sat on that one. He handed us both our scripts and the table read began. I noticed that Annabeth's face was perplexed and worried. I was sitting right next to her so I squeezed her hand under the table. Annabeth gave me a small smile. She flipped her script and opened the first page. They were going to do it a bit different than from the book. I mean, they always do. What use is seeing the movie if it is 100% like the book ? Back to the read. It was boring. We did put a little feeling because that's what we're suppose to do. We ended after I dunno, 2 hours. It was that long because Oliver had to go to the toilet for an emergency a couple of times. It' not the 1 or 2 minutes emergency. But a whole 10 minutes ! After the table read, Oliver shook each of our hands and we were off. Annabeth was checking her phone.

"It's 12. We should get food and head over to the building..." said Annabeth. We went to a local seafood shop. I don't even know why they bother building that kind of shop in the middle of the city. We bought take outs and headed to the Stature building. We got on the elevator and it took us to Level 12. We walked in with the take out. We skipped the hellos and served. It was pretty good. I thought that the taste would be bad because who knows how long these fishes were kept. AT 3, we went down to the studio for singing class. Unfortunately for us, Annabeth and I would be teaching. We got the newsletter earlier today. Initially, they wanted us to teach dancing but we had a schedule so they opted us to teach singing. HATE ! I'll just let Annabeth take the spotlight. When we got there, it seems like we were right on time.

"Sorry, we're late. Anyway, I will be teaching." said Annabeth standing at the front whilst I at down next to the other mentors. " I advise you guys to save your talent for your private session with the Gamemakers."

I heard a snort and someone say , " she doesn't want her apprentice to be out shined." But seriously, if someone advertised their talent, their competition will know how much this person can do. So, it is the safer choice.

"Now, before we sing, let me give you some pointers. When you sing live, you need the right breathing patterns especially if you're doing a rap. Like, if you do a Nicki Minaj. With the right breathing pattern, we can actually sing and rap. Also helps when your song requires a lot of dancing." said Annabeth as she reached for a microphone. She demonstrated dancing and singing wit the right breathing pattern. Suddenly, my phone rang. I quickly walked out of the studio and answered the call.

"Hello, Percy. It's Justin Hopplecraft. I was hoping you could pop by the studio later on. I mean, I know you're busy but if you have time. I would like to discuss a few things."

"No, it's ok. I'll make it. I think I can go right now if you want." I said.

"That would be splendid !" he said and cut the call. I looked back into the room and saw that they were still busy. SO I just went to KEEEZ. I walked through the door and saw that Justin H was waiting for me. I quickly sat down in the seat in front of him.

"We will start recording in a few weeks." said Justin H in a business like tone. He stacked some paper on the table and I saw the words, ' Protection OST'. Did I see it right ? "So, we have made a deal with the director of Protection and agreed to make a soundtrack for the movie. What luck ! You are acting in it. So I thought, I'd have the star perform the song himself and with your co. "

I nodded to every word. I understand that. He dismissed me. So, I thought I'd call the studio to ask about what they are doing right now. Annabeth picked up and told me that they were having a ten minute break. She also told me that there was an announcement when I left. It was that the Gamemakers announced that after tomorrow night, the night they wanted to see the talents of the apprentices, they would cut all fund from the Gamemakers. Meaning, after that we would have to buy the clothe and all using what the sponsors gave us. So we really needed to dazzle up the apprentices.
