Like most stories do, everything started out as a normal day at camp. Mostly normal. A few campers from Camp Jupiter were also in Camp Half-Blood. Normal activities had been going on for the entire day, and now it was time for dinner. Most people were hungry. Everyone lined up before the picnic place. When everyone sat down and the announcements were announced, the other campers all noticed one thing: Percy Jackson was missing. That was weird. Percy had an enormous appetite. He never skipped a meal. Chiron stood up. 'Annabeth, do you know where your boyfriend is hanging out?' Annabeth felt a flutter in her stomach when Chiron said 'boyfriend'. It had been a few years, but she still couldn't believe it. She shook her head. 'No, I don't know where he is hanging out.' 'I last saw him during canoe racing!' a boy from the Hephaestus cabin shouted. A few other people nodded. Chiron sighed. 'Let's just start eating. He will probably come up here in a few minutes.' Everyone agreed and started with their food.
Percy knew he was late, but this was something he had been working on for years. He was almost ready. He sighed and straightened his shoulders. He was going to do this. He had to tell the entire camp. He walked out of his cabin and closed the door. He quickly walked towards the picnic place, so that he wouldn't stop and start to think about what was happening. He sighed another time and entered the pavilion.
He heard a few people whisper. He didn't care. He needed to do this. He didn't look at anybody, especially not Annabeth. There was to high of a chance he would burst out laughing if he looked at her. He went up to the Poseidon table. Instead of sitting down, he climbed upon the table. While he was doing that, his tiara almost fell of his head. He put it back in place and turned around, facing the camp. Everyone went dead silent. It's not every day see the hero of your camp in a long cape and a tiara on his head, with his hair in a short ponytail. He trembled in his ballerina shoes. He spoke up, loud and clear, so the entire camp could hear him: 'My fellow demigods, and staff of Camp Half-Blood, I have something to confess. I am sorry that I didn't tell you earlier.' He looked at Annabeth. She looked at him like she didn't understand. He blew her a kiss and looked around. He looked at the head-table. Chiron and Mr. D looked like they were still progressing what was going on. Both of them clearly wondered if they should put an end to it immediately, or let it happen. Percy shook his head and threw his arms in the air. 'People, I am actually a princess!' He screamed through the entire camp.
Most people started cheering like crazy. Annabeth smacked her head against the table, wondering why she dated this dude. After that, she started to laugh and ran up to him. Percy helped her upon the Poseidon table and put her arm in the air. 'And this is my beautiful queen!' He exclaimed. The entire camp went wild. Chiron started to laugh as well. Mr. D put his face in his hands and walked out of pavilion, cursing this terrible job once again. In the meantime, the rest of the seven and Percy's friends had climbed upon the Poseidon table as well. Percy gave them all kind of different titles: 'Jason, you are the duke and Piper is your duchess.' Piper and Jason hugged each other. 'Hazel and Frank are my knights.' Hazel and Frank saluted. 'I think Leo should be my fellow prince.' Leo was to busy laughing to notice. 'Will, you are my doctor and Nico is also a knight. Reyna is the one ruling the kingdom.' Will kissed Nico on the cheek while Reyna and Nico shook their heads in disbelief. Percy turned to the rest of the camp. 'I hope you guys are happy with your new monarch. Get used to it,' He told the camp. Then he paraded out of the pavilion. Chiron clapped in his hands, the central symbol that everyone should be silent. Everyone calmed down a bit and went back to eating. That was unexpected, yet the refresher the camp had needed.
