Chapter 4

Penny's POV

My dad's palace is pretty cool.

I swam there. You're probaly thinking: How could you have swam there? Well being daughter of Poseidon let's you breathe underwater and it makes you a pretty good swimmer.

I was expecting to just meet my father, maybe find out who my mother was... But that wasn't the case.

See when I got there, I was taken to see my father. He looked almost exactly like Percy. Only older.

"Penelope." Poseidon said.

"Father." I replied looking into his sea-green eyes.

"The gods are angry with you."

Whoa. I was not expecting that. Not at all. I stared at him, confused.

"You follow the path of Nepthys, yet you are my daughter." Poseidon explained. "The gods are very angry with you."

"I did not know." I said and then I really snapped. "You didn't claim me like you were supposed to."

Poseidon seemed taken aback by this but he quickly recovered and said.

"You were beyond my reach."

"Huh?" I was a little shocked to hear that.

"When you become a Magician, I could not send a sign to claim you as my own." Poseidon said. "It was like an invisible barrier blocked my way. Then when you came to Camp Half-Blood, the barrier decreased in size and I was able to get a sign to claim you as my child."

I felt a mind enter mine and say: I created that barrier for you.

I blinked. I knew who it was but I didn't want to talk to her. Why'd she always have to speak with me when I'm doing something important?

You can't ignore me forever, dear, I'll always be here. The voice said.

Be quiet, Nepthys, I'm trying to talk to him. I thought angrily.

Alright, I'll wait until after your conversation. Nepthys said before receding into a deeper part of my mind.

"Penelope!" I heard Poseidon say loudly.

I snapped back into my senses and said.

"Sorry, father."

He looked at me for a moment like he wanted to say something but he did not say anything.

A question suddenly came to my mind.

"Who was my mother?" I blurted out.

I was surprised that I had not asked sooner. I had no idea who she was.

Poseidon looked surprised. I could guess that he hadn't expected that.

"You don't know?" He asked.

"No." I shook my head.

"Sally didn't raise you like she did Percy?" Poseidon asked.

"WHAT?" I exclaimed, very surprised.

"I'll take that as a no." Poseidon said calmly.

"What do you mean 'Sally didn't raise me like she did Percy'." I demanded angrily.

Poseidon looked nervous. Now that wasn't too surprising since even Nepthys got nervous when I got very angry.

"Just tell me." I said after a few minutes.

"Well you and Percy are twins and your mother is Sally Jackson." Poseidon said finally.

"WHAT!" I exclaimed again. I really did not expect Percy to be my twin brother. I'd have to tell him after I finished my conversation with my dad.

"I know this must be rather shocking but it's alright." Poseidon said.

Suddenly, I started getting angry. Why had my mom raised Percy and not me? That wasn't fair. I'd have to have a chat with my mother.

"I have to go." I said and I turned to leave.

"Penelope." Poseidon said.

"Yes, father?" I asked turning back around.

"Take this." He threw a necklace at me.

I caught it and looked at it. The necklace was plain and simple except for a beautiful shell. I looked at my father to see him smiling. I hooked the necklace around my neck and said.

"Thank-you."

"Your welcome." Poseidon said.

Then I left in a hurry. I wanted to tell Percy that we were twins.

Percy's POV

I had gone to see Sadie and Carter. They told me all about how Penelope was one of the most impressive Magicians they had ever seen. I, in turn, told them about Penelope being a Half-Blood.

When I told them that, they insisted on coming back to see her again. I tried to argue but they insisted upon it.

When we got back to camp, I expected to get killed by Penny not learn that she had left the camp.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?" I had yelled at Annabeth when she told me.

"Poseidon wanted to see her and she insisted on going." Annabeth had replied calmly.

"AND YOU JUST LET HER?" I demanded.

"You don't mess with someone who can control earthquakes, Percy." Annabeth said still acting calm.

"Bu-" I started to yell again but I was interupted by the sound of laughter.

I turned around and I saw my sister. Well not exactly. It was just an Iris message.

"Ok that was hilarious." Penny said wiping a tear from her eye.

"Penny!" I exclaimed looking at her.

"Yeah, it's me." Penny said smiling.

"Why'd you leave camp?" I demanded.

"Would you ignore a summoning from a god?" Penny demanded.

"Good point." I replied.

"Now, I have a lot to tell and ask you and I'll tell and ask them later but there's one thing I have to say." Penny said then she looked me in the eye and said. "I kind of need your help, Percy."

My heart nearly stopped. I stared at her, opened mouth, hoping that she was lying.

"I kind of have a problem with a monster." Penny said finally.

"YOU IDIOT." I yelled angrily.

"Yeah, I know but we'll trade insults later." Penny said calmly. "I need you to get to a shop called 'Monster Donut'."

"Why do you pick the worst places to stop for food?" I groaned.

"I don't know. Just get here now before I die!" Penny snapped and then the Iris message disappeared.

I was instantly running across the camp. I had to save my sister. Nothing would stand in my way.

Penny's POV

So stopping at a shop called 'Monster Donut' was a bad idea. How was I supposed to know that there was a reason why it was called 'Monster Donut'? I'll explain exactly what happened.

So after I met with Poseidon, I was going back to Camp Half-Blood (by land) and I saw a donut shop.

Confession: I'm a big fan of donuts.

I should have kept walking. I should have ignored the aroma of warm donuts. I should have paid more attention to the fact that the shop was called 'Monster Donuts'.

But I was hungry.

So I walked to the door of the donut shop and I was about to open the door when a Hydra jumped out. That was definetely bad.

I pulled a sword made out of Celestial Bronze out of the Duat and I swung it at one of the heads. Bad idea, because when I cut off one head three more grew back.

"Oh great." I groaned. How was I supposed to beat this thing?

Try a spell. Nepthys suggested.

I pulled a wand out of the Duat and I drew the heiroglyphic for fist. That did everything but defeat the monster.

Iris message Percy. Nepthys suggested.

How am I supposed to Iris message him when I'm fighting a monster? I yelled at her.

Just do it before you get killed! Nepthys yelled.

I knew that I couldn't do it right there. Luckily, there was water nearby. I tossed a coin into the water and said.

"Oh goddes of the rainbow please accept my offering."

It worked. I saw Percy yelling at Annabeth and I started laughing like crazy. It was very funny.

Percy turned to look at me and I said.

"Ok that was hilarious."

"Penny!" He exclaimed.

"Yeah it's me." I said smiling. I was relieved to see him.

"Why'd you leave camp?" He demanded.

"Would you ignore a summoning from a god?" I demanded.

"Good point." He said.

"Now, I have a lot to tell and ask you and I'll tell and ask them later but there's one thing I have to say." I said then I looked him in the eye and said. "I kind of need your help, Percy."

Percy looked like he was going to have a heart attack. He stared at me open mouthed like he couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"I kind of have a problem with a monster." I said finally.

"YOU IDIOT." He yelled angrily.

"Yeah, I know but we'll trade insults later." I said calmly. "I need you to get to a shop called 'Monster Donut'."

"Why do you pick the worst places to stop for food?" He groaned

"I don't know. Just get here before I die!" I snapped. Then he disappeared.

I took a deep breath and then I got out my favorite weapons: My Egyptian swords.

Maybe I could keep the monster busy just until Percy could get there. But I really didn't know how to do that.

Uh Penelope, you do remember that you can control earthquakes, right? Nepthys asked nervously.

Oh right, forgot about that. I thought for a moment and then I remembered how I had started the first earthquake and I smiled.

I turned in the direction of the Hydra and I stomped my foot. Instantly, the ground started shaking. I directed the tremors at the Hydra and strengthened them.

Just then a column of water shot at the Hydra. It hit the Hydra full on and then I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"You ok, Penny?" I heard him ask. I knew it was Percy.

"Yes but can we please get rid of it before we die!" I snapped.

I saw him take a step forward before falling.

"Careful, Percy, I'm creating an earthquake." I said giggling,

"Just help me!" He said before blasting another column of water at the Hydra.

Suddenly, I thought of something. I pulled some indestructible gloves out of the Duat and I put them on. Then I pulled a razor sharp boomerang out of the Duat.

I focused on one of the Hydra's heads and I threw the boomerang at it.

The boomerang cut off the head and it returned to my hand. But, much to my displeasure, three more heads grew from the stump of the recently beheaded monster.

"YOU IDIOT!" I heard Percy yell.

"Let's just figure out how to beat this thing then exchange insults." I yelled.

"We beat it by cutting off the heads and burning the stumps." Percy replied.

I felt like yelling at him but I knew that it wasn't the time. We had to defeat this monster without fire.

Suddenly, the Hydra tried to strike me. I thought I was toast but two fireballs flew past me and I heard someone say.

"Don't mess with my friend."

Author's note.

Yay, cliff hanger. Guess who threw the fireballs. Hint: The character has already been mentioned in the story but the character is NOT Leo.
