Carter's PoV

I walked through the gate and entered the first building I saw. The building seems as the mess hall because that's how it looks. Dozens of the kids earlier were sitting together in groups. They all were sitting on red, plush couches around low coffee tables. Glancing around the room I finally noticed Annabeth sitting with a bunch of other people, with her back turned toward me.

Sitting next to Annabeth is a boy around, I'd say, 16. He has Jet black hair that looks like it hasn't been brush for a few days. They seem close. Maybe he's Annabeth's boyfriend? That's what I'll go with.

Then, next to Annabeth's boyfriend, there's a girl with insanely frizzy chocolate-brown hair and a guy who looks like a panda in from the back. He has a dark buzz cut but his skin is a light pale. Sitting across from them is a blonde hair boy with bright blue eyes and a girl with brown hair put into a braid. Her eyes are hard to pin down as one color. Both her and the guy and holding hands. Another couple?

Finally, Annabeth turned around and noticed me standing there.

" Hey, you're back! Come sit down," She gestured toward the girl sitting across from her. I slowly came forward and sat next to her.

" Everyone this is...wait you never told me your name," She realized.

" I'm Carter," I said with a wave. Then one by one they told me their names. Next to Annabeth was Percy, then Hazel, then Frank. Sitting next to me was Piper and Jason.

" Do you know about all the Greek and Roman gods?" Piper asked.

" Well I've like mastered Greek mythology, but no. Not Roman" I replied.

" Do you know your parent?"

"Nope," I said while popping the P. " I know my parents abandoned me when I was little but that's about it,"

They all nodded in understanding. They soon began to tell me about their quest and how they needed to save the world. What did I have to do with all of this?

" Wait, you said the seven of you. Besides me, there's only six of you here. Where's the seventh?" I gestured toward the group.

" He should be here soon. He went to check our ride," Percy said while taking a sip of Coke.

That's it for now guys! I've been getting busier and busier as school gets closer. Oh, and I'm sorry for any bad grammar, as where I'm from , it sounds correct and that's how we speak. I'll make sure though that it's better for now on! See you guys next week!
