I woke up in bed. The only thing I remembered was that I came and some girl took me here. She told me to go to bed because it was too late and she would explain everything to me tomorrow.
I rubbed my eyes and immediately noticed that everyone was staring at me. I was uncomfortable, so I got up and went to the bathroom to change clothes.
I left the bathroom, the girl from yesterday was standing there.
"You must be Lexi. Hi, I'm Red." she waited for me to shake hands with her. Finally, I shook with her.
"This is Hermes cabin. Why are you here? Because you're unclaimed. The kids who are unclaimed are here. And the children of Hermes."
I didn't understand the word unclaimed. "What does unclaimed mean?"
"These are kids who don't know who their godly parent is or who hasn't claimed by their godly parent."
So there are more of them. How do I find out now who my godly parent is? I saw a couple of kids behind Red whispering and pointing at me.
I walked past Red to that group. "What's so funny to you?" I threw a fake smile. They just looked at me and said nothing.
"Lexi, leave them like that, they don't deserve your attention." Red was right. I'm not going to waste time on them.
"Come, I'll show you here," I nodded and we walked outside.

"Where we were is cabin 11. Hermes cabin. There are 12 in total, but you sleep in cabin 11. We have an arena for training, the Lake with Pier on the water and eating Arena."
It was big here, but at least I knew something where it was.
We walked towards the lake. I didn't even have time to look and someone bumped into me.
"Sorry! I didn't want to." There were two boys standing in front of us. One more vivid than the other. The lower one had blonde curly hair, blue eyes, and the other one Black-brown curly hair and brown eyes.
The lower one shook my hand to stand up. I looked at him and stood up on my own. Humiliatedly, he let go of his hand.
"Luke, you said that you're not going on capture the flag." I don't know who she was saying, but she was looking at the taller one.
Red sighed. "This is Lexi. Lexi, Luke and Percy." I smiled softly at them and then remembered.
"What capture the flag?" Red stared at me with an expression, I forgot.
"Capture the Flag is a game where there are two teams and they have to steal each other's flag."
"And who on earth told you I am going with you?!"
Luke laughed and shoved Percy's shoulder with his shoulder, who also laughed.
"Shut up Luke!" Red said. "Don't worry, it won't be difficult, we have the best captain. My brother's friend Annabeth. She pointed to Luke.
"Are you siblings? I didn't know that."
"Please, come on so we can get it done, and you two come too."
We came to the lake where the others were preparing. We stopped at Annabeth, who was looking at me strangely.
Luke broke the awkward silence. "Annabeth, this is Lexi, she's new here and she's going to play for our team."
"Hi Lexi i am Annabeth Leader of our team." I smiled at her, but she still stared at me a little strangely.
"Luke, come with me, I have a great idea." Luke and Annabeth walked a little further away from us. "Do I have to play it?, because I'm only here the first day."
Red said, "I just want to show you so you know what we do here almost every day," it shocked me. "Don't worry, it's voluntary, I just want to show it."
Red went after some boy. He resembled Luke, only he was more tanned. "So Lexi. Nice name." I snapped. I completely forgot.
"Yes. I heard about you, the famous Percy Jackson, who was claimed on the very first or second day, I don't really remember anymore."
"I'm not that famous." I smiled when he said that. "Have you ever played it? Because it doesn't seem safe to me. Someone can seriously hurt you."
He started saying something, but I couldn't hear him, I just peeked into his blue eyes. Ocean eyes.
Come to your senses Lexi!!You can't fall in love with the first boy you talk to!!
"The earth calls Lexi. Are you here?"
I quickly got back from my thoughts. Next to me stood Red with Luke and Annabeth. "I'm here, I just thought."
Annabeth started "You an Percy. You will go along the way to that hill and there you will wait as long as possible. The rest of us lead the rest."
"Why should we wait there? I'm not going to just wait there for you to beat them, I want to fight too." I peeked at Annabeth in disappointment.
"Okay!!" We walked towards the hill.
