Enjoy! Read and Review! :D

Splash! Water bounced into the air as Percy cannonballed viciously into the water. He couldn't wait to go to Poseidon's lair for the second time.

As Percy swam slowly through the water, he noticed the scenery in the massive ocean. The fishes were so beautiful..

He was knocked out of his daydreaming by a huge woof-like sound.

WOOOF!

Instantly, he was on guard. What the hell was this thing? It had a huge hide, kind of like Mrs. O'Leary, but multiplied twice. It's teeth were sharp, and it's claws were blade-like.

It slowly edged its way towards him, and he just stared at it. He knew it wouldn't dare hurt him – he was a god, first of all, and power emitted from him, and second of all, he was the son of the lord the sea.

It leapt on him, and he began to hone his power. Suddenly, slobber dripped down from him and his ears ached from the loud 'WOOF' it roared.

"Jeez doggy… you're worst then Mrs. O'Leary!" he muttered, wiping his face with his sleeve. It barked in agreement.

He then set off again, tracking down the power that was bound to be his father's palace. He stopped after 2 loud barks.

"You're still following me? Go away, shoo!" He grumbled, sick of the barks.

It woofed in defiance, but Percy would hear none of it. He set off at a neck braking pace, slipping past rocks and vegetation. After thinking that he had finally lost the stupid dog, he slowed down considerably. A bark changed that line of thinking, but he continued still, thinking that if he ignored it, that the huge sea-dog would leave him alone.

The dog, as if hearing his thoughts, shook it's head vigorously.

The palace loomed magnificently above rocks, and he could see the mermaid lookouts look at him and run off – probably to report my arrival to Percy's father, or to alert the soldiers of the massive… thing following him.

7 mermen guards went up to greet him, and ensure his safety for the rest of the walk.

"Sire!" the merman said, standing up to attention. "We are to protect you from the dog behind you!"

Suddenly, ten more mermen and sharks released weapons and open their mouths, showing their sharp teeth at the dog.

The dog stood ready for the assault, and bared it's fangs at it, pushing Percy aside, as if too protect him. He certainly did not need protection though, and he took out his sword and pointed it at the guards.

"Cease your attack!" He roared at them.

They immediately stood up to attention, weapons away.

"How dare you attack my faithful pet," he improvised, wanting the dog too stay safe, "Marecanis is a loyal friend! We shall forgive you this time, but if this happens again…" he let them ponder on the last sentence, and knew they could feel the power dripping off him.

"We are sorry, your majesty. We shall escort you now." They promptly stood up, gathered their wits and weapons, and led Percy to the looming, huge door.

Music sounded through the hall, and a deep baritone voice said, "Presenting – His Highness Percy Jackson, and… err…" One of the guards that escorted him ran up to him and whispered in his ear, "And his loyal, faithful dog that is NOT to be touched!"

Percy laughed quietly at the cheesiness of the introduction.

A deep chuckle ran through the house, and his father, wearing a crown on his head, made his way to him. They embraced lovingly, and made their pleasantries.

"Sorry my wife and Triton couldn't make it… they had quarrelling between them that needed to be urgently sorted out," Percy just arched an eyebrow, "And get a good nights sleep son! Tomorrow and the 2 months after is going to be very hectic.."

2 MONTHS LATER

Percy rubbed his hands together and manipulated the vapour particles in the air to lift his stuff into a suitcase. This was a nifty little trick he had learnt in his first week.

He smiled as he remembered several fights between him and his father, him winning in each one by using his extensive imagination.

FLASHBACK FLASHBACK FLASHBACK FLASHBACK FLASHBACK FLASHBACK!

Poseidon took out his broadsword and readied his massive power.

"Ready, son? I won't hold back just because I love you!"

Percy laughed and replied, "I would only expect Aphrodite to do that!"

Poseidon smirked in agreement and charged. Percy, expecting this dodged and thrust backwards. Poseidon parried and sent a water ball at him. Percy felt the usual tug in his stomach as he thrust the ball backwards and sent a wave of fire at him, with a blast of air to make it more flammable. Poseidon leapt away, dodging it by a head. He back flipped and sent his sword flying at Percy. Percy ducked and Poseidon's sword swung back to him like a boomerang.

Percy decided he wished to end this quickly before Poseidon thought of something cunning that would no doubt grant him the winning side of this battle. He smiled as he thought of a slightly insane idea.

Focusing hard, he created a ball of fire, air, energy, shadow, water, and earth, and then surrounded him with shadow so Poseidon couldn't see him.

Poseidon was on guard. He looked around, his sword flying left to right in case of an attack.

His son bided his time, and when it was correct, he released his shadow hiding and tossed the amazingly powerful ball at his father.

BOOM!

His father had not expected the attack, and flew forward, breaking several bones and being knocked unconscious.

END FLASHBACK – END FLASHBACK – END FLASHBACK – END FLASHBACK!

Percy stretched his muscles and heard several satisfying cracks sound through the air.

He took Riptide and smirked at the improvements the Cyclopes had made as a parting gift. Its new features were amazing. It had been enchanted so that it COULD hit mortals, but only evil, wrong-doing mortals. It also was covered in a type of potion, so that with a thought, he could set it on fire, water, or could cover it with earth so that it would instantly break the bones of any foe.

He was sincerely thankful for the improvements, and had made friends with several of the Cyclopes.

"Percy!" His father shouted at him from outside, "Hurry up!"

"Okay, okay!" He replied.

Walking out of his room for the last time, he made his way to his father.

"Father, could I have a 2 week break before going to train with Uncle? I would like to perhaps travel the world."

"Hmm… yes, of course. But 2 weeks isn't enough. 2 months should be sufficient!"

Percy agreed eagerly, and smiled as he thought of all the cars he would buy, and all the women he would meet…

Dribble dripped down his chin, and his father, as if reading his mind, slapped him round the head. "Snap out of it Percy – go get Marecanis and travel. I'm trusting you not to cause world death, or mass chaos, okay?" They embraced for the last time that month, and Percy made his way out to meet his dog.

"Ready girl?" They discovered she was actually a girl when they noticed she didn't… well, you get the idea.

He held onto her and teleported to camp, to invite several friends with him.
