Author's Note: Hello everyone. I don't know if some of you have ever read Sibling Rivalries. But if you do remember reading it, I am truly sorry for discontinuing it. The main reason why was because during the last month of summer 2011, I had many things to do before returning back for my Senior year. Then I found out about The Hunger Games and wanted to do fanfics on that. Which left Sibling Rivalries to be discontinued. Again I'm sorry for that, but I will make a story that I quite similar to that. Sorry for keeping all your hopes up for updating!

Chapter One: The Iris Message

The camp entrance stood before me as I gazed upon it. It's so great to be back again for another summer of chariot racing, capture the flag, bonfires, and sing-along's. Okay well maybe not so much for the sing-along parts. When I walked through the entrance of the camp, I felt refreshed as I entered camp borders, gazing over the cabins as I made my way deeper in.

Despite all the recent summers that included invasion of the camp by Luke's army, I'd say that life here has turned back to normal. Well, sort of. We're still trying to recover all the damage that has been done to some of the outskirts of the ring of the cabins.

Other than that, I'm confident that this summer will be the best, without any further interruptions of any invasions, monsters, empousai, or dead Titan lords. That is until I received an Iris message from my father down from his underwater kingdom. Let me tell you what happened.

I walked into my cabin after meeting up with Annabeth at the Athena cabin to greet her and to tell her that I'm back for the summer. We exchanged hugs. Unfortunately, she was on cabin inspection duty for the day so she had to do the errands she was assigned. When I got into the cabin, after placing my backpack on my bunk, the fountain started glowing. An Iris message, I thought. I walked over to the fountain and tossed one drachma to activate the message (don't ask me where I got the drachma because it will remind me of the time we visited Medusa). When the message was activated, my father appeared on the screen.

"Dad?" I said.

"Percy! Nice to see you back at camp again," Poseidon replied.

"It's nice to be back. But um, what's with the Iris message? Is it something important?"

"Well, you see… uh…"

"Don't tell me it's another prophecy that involves us having to kill monsters that are threatening to destroy human—"

"No no, it's absolutely nothing close to that. We've been keeping an eye on the Oracle and so far, not a single prophecy is yet to be announced. So that's a good thing. The reason I called was concerning Triton."

I blinked. And then blinked again. "What happened to him?"

"Nothing, it's just that… Okay here's the thing. Your mother and I have spoken to each other and—"

"You stopped by the apartment? When was—"

"That doesn't matter. Anyway, I spoke with Sally and we both agreed to have you and Triton stay together for the summer. For you two to get along. Bond. Make a brotherly connection. Something like that. Get to know each other."

"Are you insane? The guy's a total douche!"

"I heard that!" a voice in the background could be heard somewhere around my dad. The voice sounded like a young teenage boy. I'm guessing it was Triton.

"Percy, there's no need for this name-calling."

"Dad, you've got to be joking. It's going to ruin my whole summer! I've had everything planned. I was going to have fun with Grover and Annabeth—"

"You can have fun with them, along with Triton. Look Percy, I know how hard this may sound. But I thought that it would be best for my two sons to get along. To make you two feel more at ease with each other. And believe me when I say I will revoke your visitation to the camp for this summer if you refuse me and Triton."

I stood silent for a moment. Why was he going to do this now? Why did my mom agree to this arrangement? She knows how much I dislike him. Maybe we should arrange for her and Amphitrite to be locked down in a hotel for next summer so she'll know how I feel!

"Father, I do not wish to go and live with that cretin!" Triton exclaimed over the sea god.

"Triton, you will do as I say or I too will cancel the coronation ball and send you to the forges with Tyson." Triton grumbled.

"Fine! I'll go to the stupid camp."

"That's the—"

"Please deposit one drachma to continue this message."

I tossed another drachma into the fountain. Don't ask where I get them.

"—on this, Percy?" My dad asked.

"I'm sorry, I didn't catch that, dad. What was that?"

"I said are we clear on the whole situation?"

I sighed. Having Triton over for the summer doesn't describe the best summer ever. I had everything planned out. Grover and I were suppose to go camping in the woods for one week. Annabeth and I had weekly training practices every Monday and Wednesday. I even have to prepare for the Pegasus Chariot Race that is going to take place towards the end of the summer. Triton is going to ruin that all for me. I sighed, grunted, and cursed under my breath before replying to my dad.

"Fine. Yeah, whatever."

"Good. I'm sorry, Percy. But this is for your own good and for Triton's good as well. Who knows, maybe by the end of this summer, you and Triton will become the best siblings a god could ever asked for."

Yeah, if I don't kill him first.

"No promises," I said.

"Alright, then. I will escort Triton to camp tomorrow morning. So be sure to be there, and bring Chiron, too. I informed him of my coming and the situation."

"Okay. Is that all?"

"Yes, for now."

"Okay. Bye dad."

"See you tomorrow, Percy."

The Iris message dissolved into the water. Thank you dad for running my summer.
