"Come on please?" Lauren and Faith said in unison.
"No!" I yelled.
"But why not?"
"Because I don't know if I can keep you guys...safe enough. And I'm not sure if my dad will say yes."
They both looked at me with the puppy dog faces and acted all upset and ready to cry.
"All right" I finally gave in. "I'll ask my dad and see if Tyson could possibly make some type of suit thingy to keep you guys safe from the pressure. But if not then I have an idea." I gave them an evil grin, as they call it. My plan was to make them bubbles around their heads, but only if my dad said yes and Tyson couldn't make the suit thingy's.
So a week went by and my dad gave me an Iris message. He asked me about camp and stuff like that. And after he got done rambling about something I don't even know about, I asked him if Lauren, Faith, Connor, Travis, and I could come for a visit. He asked about how to keep them safe, and I told him how I was going to ask Tyson about the suit.
And this is the reply I got back, "Why not just use bubbles?" So I told him my concern about the pressure, and he told me, "I'll take care of that! So yeah you guys can come"
"When?" I asked so politely.
"Whenever you are ready".
"Ok" And with that he waved his hand and his image disappeared.
That afternoon I called a meeting. Of course Faith and Lauren showed up on time, but Travis and Connor did not. After about 30 mins. they finally strutted in.
"So what did he say?" Lauren blurted out.
My reply was "He said...yes and he told me when we go to make you guys bubbles."
They all screamed "Awesome."
"But, you guys CAN NOT pop each others bubbles! Did you hear me?"
"Yes" Connor said really fast, and then Travis agreed. And then I glanced at Lauren and Faith and they quickly nodded. I told them a couple rules like; If you see a shark it probably will attack you, or like Don't talk to the mermaids.
Travis said "Why not?"
I looked at him as if he had the brain of a fish and said "Because most of them are guys, and if you say something and you offend them you are in trouble." And with that I dismissed the meeting.
When I got back to my cabin I hugged my bro, Percy, and walked to my bunk. On my pillow was a note, and it read...
Meet me on the beach.
From: ?
So I ran out and down to the beach. When I got there it was almost time for dinner. But I didn't see anyone, I stood corrected, and Connor jumped out from no where. I screamed and then slapped him, and then after I hugged him, and I asked him a question, "Do you have any idea how we are going to keep us from my dad?"
"I don't know!" "Well we have to find a way, because he kinda like hates you."
"Well, who knows?"
"From what I know only Lauren, Travis, Apollo, Hermes, and Faith." Connor looked at me with relief and then he held my hand as we walked up for dinner. And as soon as we were almost to the pavilion I let go of his hand and he ran up to it while I hid behind a tree and waited till he was there and started walking up. When I got to my table Percy asked me something and my reply was "Just get some air".
"Okay" Percy said with a smile.
After dinner Lauren and Faith waited for me then we ran to get Connor and Travis. When we caught up with them the Apollo kids had already started the campfire songs.
So we pulled them to the side and whispered to them "Are we all ready for tomorrow morning, and are we all packed?" Connor gave me a smile and said yes, then Lauren and Travis, and lastly Faith.
Morning came quick. Me, Lauren, Faith, Travis, and Connor all met up on the beach. I told them how it was going to work. We all would go into the water, they would hold their breath, I would make the bubbles, and then we would get a ride from some hippocampi down to my dad's palace. When we got there I told them to wait for me to get back from opening the door.
After I opened the door and came back, I was MAD.
