I read the last chapter over and realized how many errors I made! I'm sorry! Thank you so much for those who reviewed, read, favorite, and followed. Also, I changed some of the ages because to be in a foster care you have to be under the age of 18.

Annabeth:
I followed Chiron up the stairs. There really were a lot of stairs. The place had three floors, and I was on the top one. He dropped my bags in front of my door and said to ask him if I needed anything. I thanked him and he told me that the kids were eating lunch on the first floor before he walked away.
The room was about the same size as my room at my old foster care. The walls were plain. They were painted a beige-like color. There was nothing on the walls except a few hangers and shelves.
There was a twin size bed with the headset against the wall. Everything was white on the bed except the headset, which is black instead. I sat on it. It was comfortable. There was a really big brown desk pushed on the other side of the wall. I needed a big desk. I studied a lot.
I heard a knock," We only have twenty more minutes for lunch," Chiron said from the outside of my door.
"I will be out in a minute. I just need to finish unpacking. Thank you for letting me know," I replied.
Chiron walked away as I quickly started unpacking. It didn't take very long. I didn't bring a lot of clothing or belongings. I brought all my awards from school, though. I put up the ribbons, certificates, and medals, which I worked so hard for, on the hangers and shelves. I exited the door and quickly walked down stairs. I was really hungry.
I FINALLY got down to the bottom floor. Did I mention there are a lot of stairs? Anyway, I walked into the room and started counting how many people were there. One, two, three…there were twenty-four! I thought there were twenty-five…so close!
"Welcome, your Annabeth, right?" someone said ruining my train of thought.
There was a girl standing in front of me. She seemed my age, 15, and had short black hair and blue eyes. She had on a leather jacket, black jeans that had tears everywhere and had the word "punk" on it. She looked like the type of person I would usually be afraid of.
"Yes, and you are?" I replied to the girl.
"Thalia," said the girl as she stuck her hand out. I shook her hand with both of my hands, which is a sign of friendliness in case you are wondering why I did that, and smiled.
She made a follow me gesture with her arm. Thalia was headed toward a table with about six or seven people all waving at me. I wasn't sure if I wanted to go to that table. They all seemed so welcoming. A little too welcoming.
I know it sounds weird that I don't want to make any close friends, but every time I start to get really close with people I would have to leave like a month later. I couldn't have another family taken away from me.
I hesitated then decided to follow Thalia. I don't think I would have looked very nice if I had just walked away. Then I remembered something
"Wait," I told Thalia. She turned around to look at me. "I don't have a plate," I continued.
"We already have one for you at the table. We didn't know what you wanted so we just got everything," Thalia replied.
"Thank you," I said gratefully. She nodded in return.
I started looking for a spot at the table. A girl waved to me and patted the empty seat next to here. There was a plate in the spot so I assumed that the spot was for me. The girl was very pretty, probably a year younger than, a little shorter than me, had brown hair, and had bluish-greenish eyes. She obviously did put much effort into being as pretty as she is. No make up, no fancy clothing, no hairstyles that took a million hours to do etc. Thalia told me her name was Piper Mclean.
Thalia introduced everyone to me.
Conner and Travis Stoll were brothers that looked very a like. Travis was a little older than Conner, though. Conner was 14 and Travis was 16. (AN: Or is Conner older than Travis? I don't remember. Whatever, its my story) They pulled pranks and stole items constantly. Maybe that's how they got their last name…
Silena Beauregard was 16. She was about to turn was obsessed with her appearance. She had make up, designer clothes, her hair probably took her at least 2 hours etc. She was really nice, though. She says she wants to give me a makeover…
Make up and I do not add up.
Jason Grace was the same age as Piper, 14. Thalia told me they had a huge crush on each other. He was also Thalia's little brother. His hair was blond, but he had the same blue eyes as Thalia. He was a good leader and has been here since he was 3, which longer than anyone.
Then Thalia introduced me to Percy Jackson…
What do you think? The next chapter will be in Percy's POV...Maybe, I might change my mind. Do you want the next chapter to be in Percy's POV? Review! Favorite! Follow! Thank you.
