Percy's POV

I woke up in my cabin early in the morning. The sunlight was beautifully coming through the window of the Poseidon Cabin. I had a really weird dream, it had something to do with Circe, but I couldn't remember.
I yawned and got up. It was awkward. The voice that came out wasn't mine. It was really high. Like a girl's. And I then realized a strange weight in my chest and my hair was falling in my face, but it wasn't that long before I went to bed!
When I looked down at my chest, I saw something I wasn't supposed to have. At this point, I basically started to freak out. What the Hades is going on??
I got out of my bed and ran to the bathroom. I needed to stop my pajamas from falling to the ground because they were too big. Did I shrink or something?
Then I got to the mirror and what I saw terrified me. I'm pretty sure I screamed and started hyperventilating. Staring at me, there was a girl about my age, with slack black hair that got to her chest and sea green eyes, and she was using pajamas that were way too big for her. Then I realized I was she.
"I'm a g-g-g-i-irl??!!"
Alright, I was panicking! What happened?? Why am I like this? A girl??
I let out another girly scream. What am I gonna do??
By this time, I heard steps outside my cabin.
"Percy! Are you awake already? Can I come in?"
Oh my gosh, it's Annabeth! What do I do? Then I did the only possible thing to do. I ran to my bed and hid under my blankets. What would she do if she saw me like this?
Then she walked in. She knew me too well. She probably realized I was awake and was wondering why I wasn't answering.
She sat by my side at the bed.
"Percy, I know you're down the covers. C'mon , we have to head to breakfast. The gods will be coming soon and we need to be prepared." She said.
I peeked over the blanked and looked into her eyes. She stared at me for a moment and seemed slightly surprised.
"Wait, who are you? And what are you doing at Percy's cabin?"
I then uncovered my head completely and looked at her again with pleading eyes. I was absolutely terrified and I needed help.
She thought for a second while looking at me confusingly, and seemed to notice the resemblance, and suddenly she gasped:
"P-percy??"
I nodded.
"What? How? What happened?" She asked.
           "I don't know", I muttered."I just woke up"
           "So you woke up as a girl?"
           I nodded.
           "Oh my gods, Percy!"
           "Do you know how to fix it, Wise Girl? What can I do?" I asked hopefully.
           "I-I... I have no idea. Did something happened last night? It must be a curse of some kind, or a spell."
           " I had a weird dream about Circe, but this was all."
           "That's it! It must be it!"
           "What?"
           "Oh Seaweed Brain, I mean that it must have been Circe's doing. She is the only one capable of doing such a thing. And she probably wants revenge because of what happened at the Sea of Monsters." She explained.
             "So you mean that Circe turned me into a freaking girl because she wanted revenge?! I guess she loves messing with my life and she decided that guinea pig just wasn't enough." I said, my heart filling with burning rage.
          "Well, I guess the best thing we can do now is to go talk to Chiron. He must know what to do." She said.
            "Yeah, I think so." I agreed
            "Alright, let's go Percy"
            "But Wise Girl, I can't get out of my cabin like this. I need girl clothes." I reminded her.
            "You're right", she said."I'll go to my cabin and get some of my clothes, so that I can borrow you them. Wait here."
             With that, she got out of the cabin. I just stayed there. I didn't know what to think. So this is it now? We need to find a way to fix it and turn me back into a guy. Fast.
              After a few minutes,I started trying, key word: trying , to fix my hair in a way that it wouldn't get in my face. It was just so weird to see that reflection, that girl in the mirror, instead of the usual me. That really messed up with my mind.
             Just then, Annabeth came back with the clothes. She brought shorts, a camp t-shirt and some shoes.
            "I hope this fits you. Probably we're the same size." She said.
            I took the clothes of her hand and went to the bathroom.
            I put the shorts on (I stayed with my underpants, 'cause I thought it would be just awkward to use my girlfriend's underwear) and the shoes. I froze when I saw a bra.
           "Do you need any help Percy?" Annabeth's voice came from outside.
           Now that would be awkward. I decided that I would figure out how to put on a bra by myself. After a few minutes, I finally got it and finished getting ready.
            When I went out of the bathroom, Annabeth took a look at me and nodded.
            "Well Percy, who would tell you would turn out to be such a chick!" She said.
            At this point I gasped: "What?!"
           "Yeah", she laughed. "You're really hot"
           "Oh, please don't say that!" I pleaded.
           She laughed again and I blushed.
           "Now let's go talk to Chiron." she said and we headed to the big house.
What did I put myself in to?
