Piper was mad. Her father wanted some family bonding time, which was perfectly fine by Piper, except it was in an abandon beach house by the Pacific Ocean that her dad had fixed up and they were staying for a month. She wanted to go to camp but he didn't
know about that, so he thought it would be fine, and he wanted to make her happy that she would be skipping school for a month, which would be awesome for any other 16 year old, but she didn't go to school. So it was 1 month less of camp for
her. Her dad was on the phone ordering pizza, he was trying to act like a normal family, delivering pizza, but they were so far from civilization that it would arrive by helicopter, "so much for normal",Piper thought, but Piper was bored so
she asked her dad if she could take the jet ski out for a ride, and would come 20 minutes.
Piper turned the jet ski slowly in circles on the clear ocean water trying to make the waves bigger. She rode straight and whipped around hoping to hit the waves at a side angle so she could ramp them harder, but as she pushed the gas harder a rock appeared
out of nowhere in front of her she was so surprised she did not turn "She was so stupid", Piper thought, She had been avoiding it the whole time but was to busy watching the waves ahead of her that she forgot about it. She didn't have enough time
to swerve away so she jumped of, trusting her life jacket to keep her afloat, but in her rush she had forgotten her life jacket. She cursed in Greek, she was floating down and the momentum was keeping her from swimming up. She opened her eyes and
she knew this was the end. Somehow the force of the jet ski crashing had sent her so far under water she couldn't see the top.
Piper thought of Jason and her friends and decided she had to get back to them and her dad. So she prayed to her mom, Aphrodite, but what could she do even if she responded? So she prayed to the sea god himself, Poseidon after a couple of seconds she
couldn't hold her breath any longer, no help was coming and she only had a few seconds for a plan. Then she had a plan so crazy she must have been getting woozy, she was going to try to pray to Percy Jackson, but he was only a Demi-god like her so
she doubted it would work.
She made it quick, just a quick beg for help, and she started to see black spots. Her lungs defied her and she took a breath of salt water and started choking and panicking, then a bright ocean glow surrounded her and she could breath again. Before she
even opened her eyes she retched all of the water she swallowed out into the ocean but some how she was staying in one place. She looked up and seen her friend an exhausted looking Percy looking at her in concern. "How..." she sputtered not able to
form a coherent thought of why she was alive.
"I heard your voice in my head asking for help and I sensed you were drowning miles beneath the Pacific Ocean so I tried my hardest to teleport to you,"
"wow,"she thought that was some pretty powerful stuff no wonder he was exhausted
"Where were you at?" She asked.
"In Lubimbi Africa" he replied "almost half way across the world from here it really drained be do that from that far and, hold up this bubble, and this was also my first time doing that."
"Africa! What in the Hades were you doing there?" she asked
"Tyson wanted some imperial gold to try and he found a big slab of it in the bottom ofa lake near there ,but theI was so tired from hauling it up I stayed at a hotel."
Percy yawned and shot the bubble upwards and glided back to the house, the making sure she was ok he called blackjack and left.
Piper checked her watch, it had only been 30 minutes hopefully her dad hadn't noticed, but when she went inside her dad was at the door with a police officer and a worried expression.
"WHERE WERE YOU!", He shouted
"I can explain, please calm down." She laced charm speak into her voice, seeing her dad visibly calm down she took him into the living room.
"Dad" she said, "We need to talk"
