Behind the Hidden Throne(HoO AU)

Percy

I don't own anything but the plot.
Please enjoy my horrible fight scene, unless it turns out good.
I brought up my sword as Clarisse lunged at me. Our swords connected with a sharp clang. I pushed my blade to the bottom of hers and pressed my weight towards her. She fell back with a grunt and I swept my sword at her legs.
Ares clapped as Clarisse fell back and I pressed my sword to her neck. "Well done Jackson, meet me in the throne room after lunch". He gave me a once over and sighed. "Clean yourself up, your about to meet the king".
As soon as Ares was gone Ethan rounded on me. "Your going to meet the king! Why does Percy get to meet the king?".
Clarisse sneered. "Why does Percy get anything. His father is Lord Poseidon".
I glared at her. "Maybe your father just thinks I'm a good soldier, my father has nothing to do with this". Clarisse rolled her eyes and seated her sword. But they had a point, Ares alway seemed to give me the good jobs. Never once had I ever scooped manure or collected dead bodies from the battlefield. While the other soldiers would sleep in cramped tents and small cots Ares alway insisted that I join him in the command tent. I didn't want to admit that it was because of my father but I already knew it was.
I walked through the camp towards the bathrooms(AN: I have no clue what else to call it)to get myself cleaned up.
After a quick shower and a small lunch I made my way out of the camp and towards the castle. In the throne room King Hermès, Prince Luke, and General Ares stood waiting for me.
Ares smiled when he saw me. "There he is, Lord Poseidon's son Perseus". He turned to Hermès and Luke. "He is one of my strongest soldiers and he will listen to Luke's every order". I blinked, what was he saying.
King Hermès glanced at me. "He does look strong. Perseus, would you be interested in becoming my son's protector". I felt weak, this was something I had been training for ever sense I could fight. I couldn't find the words so I just nodded.
King Hermès nodded. "Step forward soldier, and let yourself be knighted(AN: is that a real word)".  I knelt before him and Ares touched his sword to my shoulders. "Rise, Sir Perseus, as a knight of Castellia". I stood and bowed.
Prince Luke grinned. "So he will accompany us to Athens for the engagement". Hermès nodded.
"It is for your protection my son, not everyone agrees with our alliance with Titania". He turned to me. "Well Sir Perseus, are you ready to protect my son?".
I smiled. "Call me Percy".
Bum, bum, bum. How's that for exciting. Was this chapter to short.
