"Morning Olivia, did you sleep well?" Percy asked.

I woke up at the sound of his voice and sit on the bed.

"Yeah, I had a nightmare-free sleep. Your up early," I said

"I have to go train some younger kids today. Would you like to come with me to train them?" He asked

Is he serious? Why would Percy ask an unexperienced camper like me to help train children? Don't get me wrong, I don't really hate kids, but I don't know if I can help them.

"Uh...Olivia, Are you still there?"

Percy waved his hand in front of my face. It got me out of my thoughts.

"Percy, I'm still in my pajamas. I'll come with you once I changed into my original clothes." I said.

"Oh ok, I'll be waiting for you at the arena then. See ya later," Percy said while stepping out of the cabin.

Hmmph... He could of at least wait for me here. I took a quick shower and picked out my outfit for the day. I was wearing an orange T-shirt with my dark blue jacket and a black skirt with green shoes. Also, I put my trident necklace on my neck. I didn't want to lose the only thing that resembles dad even though he's a jerk.

I exited the cabin and went to the Arena. The Arena kinda looks like the colosseum in Ancient Rome on the outside. I entered the building and saw Percy teaching a group of younger kids how to fight with their swords. Most of the kids are 11 -12-year-olds.

"Olivia, glad you can make it," Percy exclaimed.

The group of kids turned to me.

"Yep," I said trying to act casual.

"Good, you can come and help me," he said

"Fine, I do need to practice my sword-fighting skills anyway," I said while joining the group.

This is my first and going to my last time fighting here. I'm not going to stay in the arena for long.

"Alright, we're going to learn ho to deflect a sword for class today," Percy said.

A little boy raised his hand.

"Yes, Felix," Percy said.

"Are you going to show us?" Felix asked

Percy nodded

"If I'm going to give you guys a demonstration, then Olivia will have to be my partner," Percy said with a smirk.

Oh no! Percy's planning something. ok, So, I went up next to him and get into a fighting stance with a sword in my right hand. I fight right-handed.

"Ready whenever you are, Seashell," I said while smiling.

"Very funny, Sea princess. Let's dance," Percy said getting into position with his sword Riptide (a.k.a Anaklusmos).

We began to fight while the kids were watching. I know that Percy is the greatest swordsman that was the successor of a Hermes camper that died during the Titan's war. I forget his name though. I was swinging my sword, but he blocked with his own sword. Then Percy swung his sword and I dodged it. This fight scene might take long, so I'll shorten it for you guys.

Well, it turns out that Percy successfully made me dropped my sword. I lost the battle. It's fine though because I can always have a rematch.

"Not bad, Olivia," Percy said

"Thanks, you weren't so bad either," I said

Percy turned back to the younger kids.

"And that's how you deflect an opponent sword."
