That night I rode the bus to the stables, where Percy was waiting.
After feeding him I slowly pet his nose, which was one of the softest things I've ever felt.
"Who are you?"I hear an unknown voice say.
Turning around I see a girl with short brown hair staring at me as if I was a question to be answered.
"Lauren Bakers.""Camille." While she seems to be thinking I look at the horse that she's holding by a halter, which is white.
The girl turns to where I'm looking.
"This is Snow, short for Snowstorm."she says."This is Perseus."
Camille turns to Percy.
"I'll be going then"she walks past me without another word.

That morning me and Meilin got dressed and headed to a coffee shop at the school, getting a breakfast croissant and mocha.
She explained how our nameplates on our vest was how we payed for everything, and how they tracked our movement on campus.The tracking part wasn't as fun.
They also told us our 'importance'. Gold was royalty, silver was rich, and bronze was commoner.
Commoner, I hated the word.
We then went to the main school building, where we both shared an English class at the beginning of the day.
Sitting down together we began class.—————
After our class we were walking to our next class when Meilin stops.
"Amoy!!!" She smiled.
I turned to see who she was speaking to.
The girl had dark brown hair and mahogany skin.
"Did you hear that the one commoner girl joined school?! It's all over!!!! I wonder what she's like... do you think-"Meilin cut Amoy off with an, "M-hmmm!!!"
Looking at me Amoy froze, "oh! Sorry! Nothing wrong I was just..."
"It fine, I'm Lauren"I hold out my hand.
"Amoy"
"Amoy is the princess of Jamaica"Meilin says.
