Crap, I'm a girl.

Holy Hestaphus

Throb. Throb. Throb.
My head hurts so much.
I reach a hand to massage my pounding head, finally awakening from the nightmare that I'd just had. I must have passed out or something, because my mouth feels all furry and disgusting. Ugh. That dream was unnervingly real, but it couldn't be, right?
My hand reaches my hair and my eyes are shocked wide open. My hair... it's changed. It has never been this soft... or straight... or... HOLY HESTAPHUS, this LONG.
Shit.
As I realise what has happened to me, I finally work out where I am- not Cabin Nine, where I fell asleep in the bunk that was Beckendorf's, or, thank gods, the underworld where I woke up. Instead, I see clear blue skies, strawberry fields and an array of cabins. I'm propped up on half-blood hill, next to Thalia's tree.
I'm outside camp. I need to move.
As I stagger to my feet and cross the magical boundaries that protect the camp from monsters, I am suddenly surrounded by campers, including... oh gods. Piper. And Annabeth. And Jason.
And Chiron.
Oh, this should be interesting.

"Who are you?" Piper asks me carefully.
She doesn't recognise me. Thanks, Lyssa.
"Uh... Leo," I try to say, but my throat dries up as I try to speak my name. I try again. "L-"
Then I remember the curse Lyssa put on me:
HE SHALL NOT SPEAK
OF HIS CURSE
UNTIL I SEE FIT.

I am so screwed right now.
"Well?"
I hurriedly think of the closest girls name to mine. "My name is... Cleo."
"Cleo?"
"...Yeah."
Annabeth turns to Chiron. "She's well past the claiming age. Whose daughter do you think she is?"
Jason, naturally, can't help butting in. "With looks like that, she's got to be Aphrodite's."
"What?!" I yelp. "No way!" I shoot Jason a devil glare, just the same as Piper is. Wait, is Piper ... jealous? Pfft. What am I thinking? All this female curse stuff is going to my head.
"I'm Hestaphus's."
"Hestaphus has a daughter?" Piper looks astounded.
"It's not unknown," Chiron reminds her.
Suddenly I'm fed up of this waste of time. I just want to sleep, get my head sorted out and try to work out how to get back to being Leo.
"Get me some scrap metal and I'll show you already." I snap.
I pat my waist. Where has my toolbelt gone? My hand brushes the buckle on my belt and it morphs to a tool belt, but it doesn't look like my one. Mine is brown and grungy, this one is clean and... gold? Ok. This is definitely weird.
With a handful of scraps Annabeth hands me, I create a tiny robot that runs around Chiron's hooves. "Satisfied?" I spit at them.
"Hestaphus it is." Chiron says. "I expect you're tired. Piper, show Cleo to Cabin Nine for me, would you? Then when she wakes up, give her the tour, and possibly some new... clothes."
I look down. I'm wearing some of my favourite jeans and holey t-shirts. Then I realise, it's a bit too holey for a girl.
"Right. Let's go."

Notes

I know I published this really quickly after the first chapter, but I had nothing to do and I wanted to share this with you guys.
Thank you for reading!

This is good, but could you write the name of the POV at the beginning of each story, I read them all at once and it was sorta confusing
